A Trap Crop For the Boil WeeviI.
The use Of corn as a trap crop for
the cotton boil weevil is recommend
ed. In planting cotton leave vacant
strips across the fields every 200 or 800
feet sufficiently wide for planting ten
or twelve rows Of corn. The corn
should be planted so that it will be in
prime silkizg condition about Aug. 1.
Under favorable conditions Of rain
fall and with good cultivation Mex
lean June corn planted by June ] viii
be in proper condition by Aug. /.
Plant cowpeas in the corn belts so
that the peas will be Towering at the
time the silks and tassels appear on
the corn, thus furnishing food for the
moths and keeping them out Of the
cotton fields. Much the same benefits
may be secured by planting patches of
late corn on different parts Of the plaL
tation, as after oats, wheat, etc. In all
cases peas should be planted I'm the
corn. The corn thus grown may be
harvested in the usual way. The corn
should not be planted for trap cror
purposes I'm belts through the cotton

The Leland Stanfords and Their Gift

state treasurer soon after his arrival in
Sacramento but was defeated. Two
years later he was defeated for govern
OF. The following year he went to
Washington as delegate to the Repub-
hcan national convention which nomi-
mated Abraham Lincoln. During his
absence he was nominated for governor
Of California. He was elected and thus
became the first Republican governor
OF that state at the age OF thirty-seven.
That same eventful year, 1881, Stan
ford was elected president Of the Cen
trail Pacific Railroad company. With
him in that amazingly profitable specu-
lation were associated Charles Crocker,
Mark Hopkins and COLTS P. Hunting
ton all OF whom became magnates in
the world OF finance. Because OF his le-
gal training Stanford was given charge
of all the legislative work preparatory
to the building Of the road, and he Sc
cured concessions from the government
which resulted in the Stanford millions.
In 1884 he was elected United States
senator and held the Office until his
death in 1898.
Even before he became a millionaire
Leland Stanford was noted for his re-
rnarkable iiberality toward deserving
public enterprises. In 1856 he lost his
only child. promising boy OF about
sixteen, and from that sad time may be
dated the inception Of the philanthropie
idea of founding and endowing the
great university at PaIO Alto. It is
/ likely that the first inspiration to confer
/ this princely benefaction upon the peo-
/ pie Of California came to the berefi
/ parents as a suggestion Of a proper
/ commemoradon OF their bitter trial, but
as time softened the early violence OF
/ the shock they came to take q broader
and less selfish interest in the scheme
and finally gave themselves up unre-
servedly to the development OF this
work for its own sake. This was espe-
eiRlly true Of Mrs. Stanford, who was
woman Of much intellectual force and
bread culture. After her husband.

Rubies are most suited for young low
The people Of the Burmese empire be-
aieve that a ruby is a human soul just
about to enter the sacred precincts Of
Buddha and consequently in the last
stages OF transmit grafton. A ruby is an
emblem Of the most passionate and alb
9orbing love. A ruby In the old days OF
ohivalrye was supposed to lead a knight
50 conquest, to cause obstacles to melt
away and to inspire one with bravery
and zeal. 1t also kept his honor I'M
stained and his character without a
blemish.
Pearls have always been the particu-
lar emblem Of purity. They are also
credited with representing modesty. In
Persia to this day people suppose them
60 be drops Of water which by e0me
means entered the oyster and became
crystallized there. Pearls and dia-
mOnds are the most popular Of gems
among all classes.
An emerald that has no flaw in it is
typical OF the purest love. Some people
gay that, as few such stones can be
found. purest love is necessarily rare.
An emerald was always thought to pos
sess the power Of discovering treachery
Ia the shape Of alleged friends.
The emerald is exceedingly popular
IA courtships and in marriages. After
marriage it is supposed to bring har-
mony into the household and to further
domestic joys in every possible way. To
lose an emerald is said to bring busi-
ness misfortunes and disaster.

now foremost seats Of learning ia
America were humble to the verge OK
absurdity. Some OF the more recent
foundations, notably Cornell, Johns
Hopkins and some Of the state schools
had no financial problems TO solve, but
the present position in Easy street oe-
cupied by some Of the greatest Ameris
can universities is the aftermath Of
generations of slow accumulation ana
patient waiting. The richest of these
old time foundations, the benefaction OF
Stephen Girard, has now attained
value of $4,000 600. The gift Of John

time has come when its initial personal
features, somewhat antagouistic at hrss
acquaintance to the scholarly tenpera-

the Stanford personality has been sys
erywhere apparent. It must be stated
also that 1t has long since ceased to be
