tOriginai1
Ia a princeIy mansion a child lay
dying. Around the bed were physi-
clans, nurses and servants. They had
been trying to save life, but now that
1t was plain their efforts were vain
they were awaiting the end. The
father and mother were kneeling by
the couch watching till the spark of
life had gone out
Suddenly the child awoke from I'M
Consciousness and felt itself rising. An
angel was drawing it, magnet-lise,
from the body Then when the little
spirit was free both lowered over those
grouped about the body that had been
left behind as a locust leaves its shell.
Angel said the child, why have
no voice to speak to my dear papa
ana mamma?"
Because it is not in the nature OF
possibilities. The dead cannot speak to
the living. They may only influence
them. Gomez
They passed out OF the house as light
shines through solid glass window

over the houses, they saw with their
immortal vision countless people pre-
pairing for the morrow. Children We're

A FAVORED INDUSTRY.
Onion Culture Has Attracted Many
Farmers This Year.


Owing to the generally successful
onion season last year more than usual
attention is. given the subject of 1905
acreage. Cool weather throughout some
of the more northern sections retarded
planting. Yet it is reasonably certain
that the general acreage this year will
prove somewhat larger than in 1904.
There may be local exceptions, but
these are more than offset by the
strong disposition in some big CONNER
cial onion producing places to deal
more extensively in this important
crop, says Orange Judd Farmer.
The attitude of Michigan and Wis
eonsin farmers toward onions IS one of
marked favor This is particularly true
in those sections where onions form an
important commercial crop. In the
Green Bay district of Wisconsin the
crop recently sewed is reported fully
ais large as last year. Those growers
who possess rich clay soil have gener-
ally increased the acreage, as onions
on such land are bothered less by mag
COTS.
In the Grand Rapids district of Mich
igan some report the acreage under
onions as a third larger than last sea-
son. There is believed to be a slight re-
duetion in AIuskegon county, as the en-
largement in the peppermint acreage
is encroaching somewhat on onions. In
the important trucking districts near
Chicago the area devoted to onions is
looming up about 10 per cent heavier
than last season.
A correspondent in Wabasha county,
Mimi, says the acreage is double that
of 1904. In some sections Of South Da-
kota there is a slight restriction, but
this state is not important from a COM
mercial standpoint. Our correspondent
in Larimer county, Colo, says growers
are going more extensively into onions.
While the acreage will be larger than
last year. ii win not be much above
normal.
Ohio generally promises a bigger
acreage. New York reports vary some
what. Prices lend encouragement, but
disastrous experiences with maggots
seem to have inundated some New
England, particularly the Connecticut
river valley, is experiencing quite lit
tie boom in onion culture this season,
the acreage being greatly extended.
