Fad for Optimism.

One of the most wholesome fads
that has been prevalent among So
ciety at large is the newest of all
optimism.
For it is no longer the fashion to go
about looking as though you bore the
burdens of the world upon your deyot-
ed shoulders. But, instead, you're eX-
pected to look blithely upon the Cd
world and it's troubles-and your OVID
troubles, too, says the Philadelphia
North American.
Perhaps it is our free outdoor life
that has developed the quality. PEI
haps it is only a new pose-for pup
lie opinion must have its poses, like
every individual.
Surely it SHOULD make happier,
healthier communities out Of cities
and states. Good cheer is more or
less of a habit-pretend to have IT,
and you suddenly wake up to find
you've really got it, and, too, have
created a more joyous atmosphere for
yourself, that gradually grows neces-
sary to you.
The happy habit is a good one
much better than the tragic-faced,
world-weary type that preceded it.
May the new fad stay in fashion!

Clover for Poultry.

Glover is not only highly nitrogen
Gus, but is rich in lime, substance
required by the hens for providing the
shells of eggs, and which is in a more
soluble form in the food than in the
shape of oyster shells or otter insolu-
BILE substances. It contains nearly
thirty times as much lime as does
corn in it's proportion Of flesh forming
elements. One of the advantages as
food for hens is that it is not only nu-
tritious, but bulky, and aids in the di-
gestion of the grain. 1t is valuable in
supplying those substances which are
lacking in grain, and as it is plentiful
on all farms and requires but few
moments for it's preparation, there is
nothing to prevent its use. By allow
ing a ration Of scalded clover to the
hens after green food is gone they will
keep in better laying condition and the
production Of eggs will be increased.

Woman in Farm Work.

Many agricultural papers are advo-
eating the plan of asking the women
members of their families to assist in
the lighter part of outdoor farm work,
a subject which had better be let
alone. Any farmer who needs the
help of his wife and daughter in the
field would better be out Of the bust
ness. Where Is the farmers wife who
has so much leisure on her hands that
she can assist in the farm work prop
er?
If there are such women, turn the
poultry over to them and see them
make money. Farmers who are advo-~
eating this outdoor work for women
would better look more closely into
the situation, when they will see that
what most farmers wives need is help
in the WOman's work of the farm
in the kitchen, in the dairy and in the
hundred and one things they have to
do, especially if there are small chill
dren in the family. Most men are lib
eral enough about hiring help for the
farm work, but mighty stingy when it
comes to hiring help to assist the over
worked wife.--Indianapoli News.

able to do the first" That is the law
Of the land, or of nature itself in near
ly all sections, or rather it might be
stated a little differently. If we do
not return to the soil some of the fer
tility taken from it, It will cease to
produce profitable crops. Even the
much boosted soil of the Western
prairies is not a mine of inexhaust-
ible fertility as we used to hear it
called. The market gardeners of
Massachusetts and many others grow
neither corn nor grass, and feed Meth
er cattle or hogs, but they realize that
they cannot long continue to harvest
good crops unless they procure from
some source the elements that pro-
mote plant growth, and return them to
the SOIL Farmers of Iowa are for
tunate in that their cattle and hogs
when sold do not carry away fertil-
ity from the farm as do grains, hay
and roots.

RAILROADS OVER PYRENEES.
French and Spanish Governments Pre-
pare to Build Three Lines.


An important series of railway
works to be constructed in the near
future is the system of lines that,
piercing the Pyrenees, are to connect
France with Spain.
While so long ago as 1879 plans were
prepared for crossing these mountains
by railways, yet for military and 9TH
er reasons they have never been real
lied, and the lines connecting these
countries. two in number, are near the
shores of the Bay of Biscay and of the
Mediterranean Sea.
Recently the governments of Spain
and of France have agreed on the con-
struction of three important lines, to
60 directly through the mountains, the
effect of which will be to put Toulouse
and Barcelona in closer connection, as
we'll as other important towns.
The most northern route will pene-
trate the mountain near Canfranc, in
volving the construction of tunnel
4.S miles IN length at an estimated
cost of $2,90O,00O, of which each gov
eminent will contribute half.
For the central or Salau route a still
longer tunnel, with a length of "a
miles. must be constructed at cost of
Sc, $4,000, while in the French terri
tory the country is rough and much
engineering work must be done on that
section. For the eastern or Puigcerda
route there is no international tunnel.
but in both countries smaller tunnels
must be constructed through the noun
tainS.
The three railways are to be con-
struct simultaneously and are to be
completed within ten years, and will
improve important branch lines that in
both countries have been constructed
I'D the various valleys on each side of
the mountains.
