Raising Seed.

In raising seed it is first important
to determine what feature of the plant
is to be kept in mind. Is it to be i'm
proved in earliness, productivity, size,
quality or hardness. or is it to be
what may be termed an all round"
plant? Ont which is to retain many
good features without sacrificing some
to emphasize others? However, this
may be, course should be determined
upon, an ideal set up and kept con.
Stantly in mind.
In selecting the fruit 70: seed it is
not enough to make choice of single
specimen. Thist may be a freak and
really not desirable. The first ripe to-
mato may be borne on a vine which
produces all it's other fruit compara-
lively late. A single pepper may be
extra large, though the others on the
bush are small. So it is in other re-
spects. The single specimen should
not be the criterion, but the value
should be judged by the whole plant
and what it does.
OF course the selection for seed
should be the first consideration. The
plant reserved for that purpose should
not be called upon to supply the table
also. Let the plant alone to mature its
seed. Do not tax it in any way for
other purposes. In this way the best
only will be saved, and the variety
should keep improving.
A knowledge Of seeds is essential to
a thorough understanding Of plants,
their likes and dislikes, humors and
freaks, is to have access to world of
enjoyment which only those who have
sought for it can appreciate.--F. D.
w., in National Fruit Grower.

Abandoned Farms Pay.

The great mass Of conservative opin
ion seems to be firmly set against adj
vising the public to buy cheap lands
Embellishments land is no good fol
farming" the experts say. Farming
requires more capital than formerly
and the day Of general farming in thf
East is past. A thousand dollars al
least is necessary. The best abandoned
farms have been transformed ints
summer homes; the others should new
er have been attempted"
In the hope that there might be somt
exceptions to these pessimistic state
ments, Country Life in America begar
an Investigation which has brought Il
light the following hopeful facts: /.
Many people have succeeded at general
farming within the last ten years on
land costing SIS to $40 an acre. 2. Gen.
eral farming is often better than spe.
cial farming for the beginner without
exterience-at least for the first year,
3. There Is plenty of suitable land in
New England and the South that can
be bought for $40 an acre or less. 4.
Much of this land is not abandoned; 1t
is still worked for profit. 1t can be
had at bargain, prices for three perma'
nently legitimate reasons: Old age, i'll.
health, the settlement Of an estate. 8
People do not know how to find out
where these cheap lands are,-Country

A New Radioactive Elem emf.

Once again the discovery Of new
radioactive element is recorded, this
time in the residue of thorianitc, after
having been chemically treated to clim-
mate other substances. DR.. Hahn, who
has made this discovery, was able to
obtain ten milligramS of crystalline
precipitate which exhibited marked
radioactive powers, and which after
two months showed no diminution.
This substance not only glows feebly
in the dark, but causes screens Of pla-
tino-cyanide and zinc sulphide to fuor-
esce brightly. Luminosity is also pro-
duced if q current of air is blown
through a solution Of this substance
and then directed on a screen coated
with zinc sulphide, though this phen-
omenon is different from that appear
ing with emanium under similar cordi-
tons. The new emanation while in
all respects equal to that Of thorium is
remarkable for the fact that thorium
itself was not present. Inasmuch as
inactive thorium has been found, and
that the thorium emanation without
thorium has also been found at Baden
Baden, DR.. Hahn is led to the belief
that the new element is the active
constituent of thorium, and that its
presence may explain many of the
phenomena Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Dvel1ers in tho Ice.

The Etahyans, or "arctic highland
ers,n live in ice caves within the vast
glacier cap which covers all Northern
Greenland. Theirs is, perhaps. tne
most wretched and isolated existence

Their dwellings" are always wet
owing to the melting of the ice walls
and floor. For full six months OF the

envelopes them. The ice is around

Growing Pickle Cucumbers.

A good way to plant pickle cucum-
bers is to crossmark the ground Aka
feet. planting six to ten seeds at the
intersections Of the marks. This gives
2720 hills to the.acre, and cultivation
can be carried on both ways as long
as the plants allow Of it.
Those who make their rows five feet
apart, with the hills three feet apart
in the row, gain about two hundred
hills to the acre, but cannot cultivate
so long one way or with such good
effect, although the irrigation facili-
ties are better.
Planting in drills does not seem to
give satisfactory results, and it is only
rarely practised.
The planting should be done during
the first half of June. When the main
vines are three feet or more in length,
The ends should be pinched to promote
the growth Of laterals. The latter
bear a much larger proportion of pis-
;illate or productive blossoms than the
main vines, which are mostly stami-
nate.
The striped cucumber beetle does not
attack the paintings for cucumDrrs so
much rs those for pickles. The young
plants shonld be kept busted as long
rs the beetles are observed to be pres

Catching South Sea Fish With Poison.

In some of the South Sea Islands the
natives catch fish by stupefying them
with the narcotic fruit of a tropical
tree, the Barringtonia speciosa. Tine
species, we are told by writer in the
National Geographical Magazine, is
found in the Malay Archipelago, the
:Andaman Islands and Ceylon. Its use
for catching fish in Guam, our new 1sF
and possession, is thus described: 1.-The
fruit is pounded into paste, lnclosea
in bag, and kept over night. The
time of an especially low tide is Sc
lected, and bags of the pounded fruit
are taken out on the reef next morning
and sunk in certain deep holes in the
reef. The fish soon appear at the sur
face, some Of them lifeless. others at
tempting to swim or family struggling
with their ventral side uppermost. Tha
natives scoop them in their hands,
sometimes even diving for them. AS
many young fish unfit for food are de"
stroyed by this process the Spanish
Government forbade this method OF
fishing, but since the American occu-
patton Of the island the practice mas
been revived"

Slumbers once more.
Most men prefer the public con.

With it in that condition it is much
easier to stay out after the ringing of

It is also easier to stay the market
and strike the public for another cent
on the gallon.
The man who stirs up the public
conscience sometimes gets stirred
under himself.
1t is the prerogative Of the public
conscience to send eVil-doers to prison,
whence the private conscience OF the
average governor pardons them out a
few at a time.
The public conscience differs from
the private conscience only in guam
tity, not in quality.-Chicago News.

"Nurse Crops" Unnecessary.

The Department Of Agriculture has
issued pamphlet summing up the re-
suits of an experiment by the Wiscon-
sin Station, showing that the claim
that a nurse crop IS necessary for
grass and clover sowing is without
foundation. There is no need what
ever for sowing oats, barley or any
other grain with grasses for Inc pur.
pose of yielding shade and protection.
Young grass and clover plants are
not injured by direct sunlight and heat
more than other plants Of our fields"
The experiments, made over a series
of years, show that grasses and clover
sown by themselves on properly pre-
pared soil spring up at once and make
rapid growth, bearing seed heads the
same season. The objection that weeds
will spring up, can be overcome large
ly by, running mower over the field
when the weeds are about eight inches
high, setting the cutter bar so that the
tops of the weeds are cut while the
grass plants are not hurt. Soil, how
ever, to be planted in this way should
he fairly free from weed seeds. 1t is
recommended to SOW seed early in the
spring. Experiments similar to the
above have also been carried out in
New Jersey, where the seed was, how
ever sown in the fall. In either event
& very fine filth is essential to good
stand.

Poor Cows.

Some time ego came across a few
lines, of which I made a note. They
were, to the effect that: A poor man
keeping poor COWS is sight to make
one sigh at the shortsightedness of
man. There is a world of truth in
this remark-a poor man cannot af-
ford to waste his money in the feeding
of poor cows, and it is quite contrary
to all experience to say that he cannot
afford to own good COWS. A man who
is going to own COWS had far better in
vest his money in the purchase Of
half a dozen really good animals than
in a dozen inferior ones. If he wants
to increase his herd he can do so by
breeding from good animals, and with
4 far better chance of obtaining wor-
thy members of the dairy than he
would by breeding from ordinary
stock.-C. G. f., in American Cultiva-
tor.

AN ELECTRICAL AERIAL FERRY.
BY FRANK C. PERKINS.

The aerial ferry at Duluth, Minn.,
the first structure of it's kind in this
country, has been completed and is
now in operation.
The suspended ferry car has a nor
NAL speed Of about four miles per hour,
but the electrical motors and driving
equipment are capable of propelling
the car at twice that speed should it
become desirable, and the passage of
the canal can be made by the suspend
ed ferry car in slightly over one
minute.
There are two electric motors, each
of fifty-herse-power capacity, located
under the floors of the car. These
electric motors operate TIVE drums,
each Of which is nine feet in diameter,
and on these drums are wound cables
one inch in diameter, extending to the
truss and then over idle wheels nine
feet in diameter through the inside of
the lower chords to tower, where they
are fastened, and thus produce the mo-

much concerned as to where "thcy are

with several department stores to en-

evidence in some local bargain counter
establishments:
THE next time it rains, step in and
borrow an umbrella. Will send for
it next day
OF course, deposit is required, but
the money is refunded upon the return
of the storm protector in good coHdi-
ton. The umbrella trade figures that
this convenience will result in seriously
curtailing the consumption OF its
wares.-New York World.

positions, and then by giving each one
twist the cork can generally be lifted
out This method is probably not more
popular, for the reason that it some
times results disastrously to the knives,
for in the hands Of an awkward person
it is an easy thing to break them.

lied this principal for cork extraction,
which is shown in the accompanying

Possibilities in Popcorn.

Though we may regard popcorn as
simply a pastime for children it is
capable of being made not only lux.
ury but substantial addition to the
bill of fare. 1t should be raised a year
in advance, as the fresh corn, no mat.
ter how carefully cured, does not pop
so well. When popping it is an i'm.
provement to have the remainder of
the corn to be used that day shelled on
the back part Of the stove, where it will
be hot when put into the pepper.
Cover the bottom of the pepper with
heated corn and put on the stove where
soon as it commences to pop have a
bed Of bot Goals ready and shake 1t
over them until done popping. If any
Of the kernels are not we'll popped it
will be those in the bottom of the
pepper. Keep them separate from the
rest and grind in a coffee mill, first
cleaning the mill by grinding parched
corn or bread. This eaten with milk
makes q nice breakfast dish. A very
nice pudding is made by selecting some
Of the best popped corn and soaking
two teacupfuls in three teacupfuls of
sweet milk over night. Sweeten and
flavor to taste, adding a pinch of salt.
