Adapability sails are set to catch
any wind that blows.
To the man with adaptation an
emergency is an opportunity.
Adaptability to adapt yourself quick
ly to unexpected conditions.
Adaptability is always ready; is
never taken at a short; is the greas
lightning change artist, and often
turns hopelessness into victory.
A general in battle, statesman in
office. or a financier handling large
enterprises, without the ability to
readily adapt himself to suddenly
changed conditions-is misf1t.
When one plan fails the man with
adaptation has fortynine untried 9th
ers waiting.
The bankrupt law is meant as an
asylum for men who are without
adaptabilitv.-Cent per Cent.

FOLLOWS HIS NOSE.
How Blind Man Finds His Way
About the Busy City.

ABOUT INe busy CITY.
There is blind man living in the
heart of New York who walks nearly
every day from his home to a little
restaurant in Canal street. The dis
lance each way is from eighteen to
twenty blocks, according to his route,
and to see him sauntering carelessly
along one would never suspect his in
trinity When some one asked him
how he managed to find his way he
said:
when a man has his sight the
smell of the streets are all mixed
up, but when he is blind he learns
to separate them The odorS of the
shops when the doors are open these
fine days are almost as plain to my
nose as the signs used to be over the
DOORS Some of them you might
never notice. Take a dry goods store,
for instance. 1t smells of cloth. Iron
and tin have smells of their own, ana
[ can tell hardware store immedi-
ately. I pass two book stores nearly
every day, and | scent them yards off
by the old books Then there are a
great many other indescribable odors
by which l know this place and that.

guide, and I've been over the ground
so often that have learned every
inequality by heart. But l couldn':

one fails the other helps out Be-
tween them they make very good

.The secret of my stepping out is
that I've learned how to step. People
who can see hurl themselves forward

here and there, I've managed to put by
enough to give him his law education.
He's got a good one now, too, and with
Petes push, he'll be sure to make his
mark.
"And his wife?'' Rosalind leaned to-
ward her suddenly, her breath coming
in rapid little fashion between her
parted red lips. The color in her
cheeks changing.
The other did not speak at once. Sne
smiled but felt that in some way, her
smile was dull and awkward. Present
ly she said: That's what's troubling
me some. l reckon everything'll be all
right It's not likely Pete would love
anybody that wasn't-well, good and
sensible But she's lived always in
city, with everything she wanted and
all that, and she checked herself
abruptly What do you think?' she
asked eagerly.
Rosalind laid one of her SLIM daint-
ily-gloved hands on the old lady's thin
little arm. 81 think" she said kindly,
that everything will be all right, if
she's a real gentlewoman, and if she
really loves her husband.
I'm glad to hear you say that" the
other remarked with a little burst Of
feeling. "for she can't help loving my
boy, l know, and this with new
shade of dignity slipping into her
voice. "Pete wouldn't marry anybody
but a true LADY, Two points of color
glowed for an instant in her faded
cheeks as she finished speaking.

her withered cheeks.

seat. tears glittering between her eye
lids, and the next instant a stalwart
form was holding the frafl, shabby one
close to his breast and kissing away

beside them. an exhilarant red spot
burning in each cheek. Into her eyes
had come a look of unutterable relief.
Thank God. there had been no shrink

sbare?" she asked brightly, with the
luminous smile that belonged to her.

Cut Grass for Poultry.


If ones fowls are confined during the
summer some plan should be devised
so that they may have an hour or Two
on grass at night, even though 1t re-
quires the time of one person to keep
them from getting into mischief. IL
this can not be arranged, then have it
part Of some ones business to see that
an abundance of freshly cut grass Is
thrown to the fowls each night The
grass from the work Of the lawn
mower is best for this purpose, for 1t
is short enough for the fowls to swal-
low Before this grass is thrown into
the yard a space should be cleared so
that the grass will not be soiled. The
Importance of this daily green food for
fowls in confinement can not be ig-
nored, for it is almost impossible to
keep the fowls in good laying condi-
ton and especially expect them to be
good layers in the fall without con-
siderable quantity Of green food dur
ing the summer. To furnish a little
variety in this line save the vegetable
tops and chop them fine, all mixed to-
gether, and feed them while fresh and
green, each day.

mouth from one to another who appre-
ciate good thing, and there has been
neither neNd nor inclination to cheap
en- it by advertising. 1t was the happy
idea of a man who fell heir to one OF
those New England farms that you
cannot rent, sell nor give away. But
the first view Of the situation showed
that his farm would bring him
to attempt to run it agricul-
to attempt to run it agrocul-
turally. 1t had plenty of water,
and broad, wind-swept mead
This gave him his idea. From a city
friend he cajoled lot of what house
keepers call the big pieces Of the
family wash. When the sheets and
tablecloths and serviettes came home
it was not SO much that they were
clean-that is elemental laundry work,
though rarely attained-but they had
the breath Of country air and the smell
of grass. From this beginning the
trade has grown until that Massachu-
sets farm is paying better than 1t ever
did under system Of rotation Of
crops.-New York Sun.

Highway Engineerin q.

This new profession was first recog-
nized in the educational world by the
Rhode Island College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts, when, in the au.
tumn Of 1904, it adopted a full four
years course in highway engineering,
for the completion of which the DE-
gree of Bachelor of Science is given
Two Of the senior class Of the present
year have taken the course and have
qualified as highway engineers. The
course is attracting considerable at
tention and has the cordial endorse
ment of the best highway experts OF
the country. There can be no doubt
Of the need Of good highways and OF
the future demand for men who are
thoroughly trained as highway engi-
neers. The course offered by the Rhode
Island College is practical as well as
theoretical, and graduates will be pre-.
pared to fill satisfactorily the positions
which are sure to open.-American

A Swine Census.

The Illinois Agricultural Expert
ment Station has been making an at-
tempt to get up the pig totals Of the
world. The station statistician comes
to the conclusion that the worlds pig
numbers come to 117,000,000 head, and
that forty-seven million, or two-fifths CT
the whole, must be credited to the
United States, Germany, Russia, Hun
gary the United Kingdom, and Can
ada comes next in order, and five divi-
sions of the world, including Poland,
Denmark and Holland, having totals Of
about one million head. The extraor-
binary matter in connection with the
pig totals of the United States is the
fiuctuation. In 1892 the States had
about fifty-two million; in 1901, fifty
seven million; and in 1908, forty-sevel
million. A vast country like the
States is, Of course, subject to great
financial GIBBS and flows, and expert
ence has proved that the pig prod
ucts," Of which bacon and hams are
the chief, are the first to be influenced
by good and bad times, because pigs
are more easily bred and disposed Of
than any other class of farm stock.
High prices do not necessarily st1mu
late numbers. When figures are ruling
above the normal, States farmers are
prone TO market most Of their stocks
as rapidly as possible for fear Of
collapse, and their action leads fre
quently enough to hardening Of
prices over a considerable period.

The Hessian F1y-our Oldest Pest.

The Hessian F1y-Our Oldest Pest.
Few people know that the Hessian
fly Is one of the oldest of all the crop
pests in this country, and that it's
name was given it as result of the
fact that it was brought to the United
States in the straw included in the
impedimenta of the Hessian troops
sent over against the American revo-
iutionists by George III. in 1776. 1t
was first noticed on Long Island,
about one hundred and twenty-five
years ago, and since has spread cock
tensively with the progress Of civiliza-
ton and wheat growing West, North
and South. Sometimes it completely
destroys the growing wheat in certain
sections, and the average loss it causes
is about forty million bushels annually,
or about six or seven per cent of the
total crop. The chronological Bureau
has studied it long and closely, and the.
recommendations made to wheat grow
ers have undoubtedly kept the damage
far below what 1t would otherwise
have been; and yet, in spite of the best
efforts Of the scientists and the farm
ers who act on their advice, the fly
got beyond control during the season OF
four years ago and destroyed fully
eighty per cent of the crop in the in
tested region, the resultant loss being
in the neighborhood of thirty-five or
forty million dollars. This extraor-
binary and unfortunate development
was due to weather conditions favor
able to the pest and to an unusual
scarcity of its parasitic enemy. This
parasite, which forms inside the body
Of the fly, has been secured in large
numbers by the entomologists and iiO-
Grated in several wheat growing States
and much good has resulted.-C. Ar
thur Williams, in Success Magazine
