Clean un N. Farm.

This Is good time OF the year TO
clear up any parts OF the farm which
may have grown up 10 brush or sec
ond-growth stun. We have been work.
Ing for number Of years on such a
piece OF land on the back end OF our
farm. This once had been all cut of
clean and a piece OF wheat grown
there. But after that Il had been per-
mitted TO grow up to small saplings,
some OF them five or six inches in
diameter. Along in the fall we went
at It, when other work did not press
and cut strip OF this timber on. The
largest saplings were trimmed up for
wood. the brush piled neatly and burn
ed later when thoroughly seasoned
and the land left ready for pasture.
We cut the brush of close 10 the
earth. and have now the satisfaction
OF knowing that when chopped at this
season OF the year, little IL any
sprouts Will come up TO trouble us.
The white clover came in thickly
where we cut the brush of, and to-
day we have n number OF acres OF
splendid pasture. where a little while
before we had only tangle OF brush,
briers and small trees. from which we
realized little or nothing In the way OF
profit. Most farms have such places.
They do not yield single cent OF
value In their present condition, but
might be made TO bring in hand
some revenue II treated as I have
suggested. We have learned that fall
Is the best time to cut such a piece
OF brush. II cut later In winter the
sprouts Will almost surely spring up
TO trouble you and compel you In the
course OF few years TO do the work
all over again. ] do not think the old
rule OF doing these things in the old
OF the moon In August amounts 10
anything. The moon has no part In
that sort OF business; but | do think
that when the sap is up in the top
and the branches are well matured,
the brush is far more apt TO die than
when cut at any other season OF the

Wealth In Corn Land.


Owners OF good corn land are find
ing themselves well on on account OF
the great productiyeness OF such land
and the high price at which corn sells
and is likely to sell. A good farmer
can grow fifty and more bushels OF
corn on an acre OF land. A very good
farmer can grow 20 or so bushels per
acre. Some OF whom make even bet
ter records than this when the sea
son is favorable The average crop
of a state is no criterion by which

intelligent farmers. The average
crop OF the United States. taking one
year with another. is in the neighbor-
hood OF 20 bushels, though IL varies
enormously, running down some years
TO about 16 bushels and at other times
going up to about 2S bushels. The
average yield OF corn In the state OF
Illinois. which lies mostly In the corn
belt, Is all the way from Fl bushels
up TO 40 bushels. according 10 the
year. II must be kept in mind that
this average gives no hint as TO what
our reading, studying farmers are ac-
complishing. When n man raises an
acre OF corn and gets fifty bushels
and Is able 90 sell Il for s25 he has
made big profit on his operations.
That acre OF corn has not cost more

wages. The s12 is profit II the acre

Now for the point OF this article.
which is that the temptation is very
great, at this time OF high prices for
corn, to make the land produce big
crops Of corn and give IL no food eth
er by direct application OF fertilizers
or by a process OF rotation. The far
mer says: What, put that land into

farms II the fertility is to be kept up
The larger the crop OF corn being Ia
ken on, the greater the amount Of
phosphorus that is every year being
drawn from the soil and exported.
The loss OF nitrogen and potassium is
considerable. but the losses OF these
elements are not so great or serious
as the loss OF phosphorus.
The farmer that is getting big
profit OF his corn land should care.
fully conserve that land by giving IL a
rest from corn growing during certain
years and putting some OF his profits
into phosphorus and other elements
II needed. The clover will get the
nitrogen from the air Potassium Is
cheap, even when the farmer has TO
buy IL in commercial form.
The heritage In good corn land
should be saved for the coming gen
erations. No man has a right TO de-
stroy this heritage. II is only his for
use, not for destruction. II is the
greatest patrimony that can be left TO
the children.

This remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes. was born in
Lynn, Mass, February 9th, 1879 com
ing from a good old Quaker family
For many years she taught school. and
during her career as a teacher she be-
came known as a woman OF an alert
and investigating mind. an earnest
seeker after knowledge. and above all.
she was possessed with a wonderfully
sympathetic nature.
In 1S43 she married Isaac Pinkham.
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and dangh-
ter.
In those good old-fashIoned days few
drugs were used IN medicines: people
relied upon natures remedies, roots
and herbs. which are to-day recognized
as more potent and efiicacious In con-
trolling diseases than any combination
Of drugs.

deep interest in medicine. In botany

AS guests Of the street railway COM

Fourteenth avenue Sc to Hopkins was

was sent to England with Collingwood s
dispatches after the battle to announce
to the admiralty the victory that had

mouth Nov. 4, and took horse for Lon
don, where he arrived two days later.
with his dispatches, but Captain LaPen-
otiere was the first to reach England.
His way to London was marked with
great rejoicing over the victory and
sorrow for the death Of the nation s
hero. The stagecoaches he passed were
chalked with the words HGreat Vic
tory and "Glorious Triumph" that
they might carry the message to the
people from Exeter to London. In rec
there was made post captain and pre-
sented with a sword which is valued at
100 guineas and which is still in the
family.
Every year since the Nelson monu'
ment was erected on Trafalgar square
in London it has been decorated on the
anniversary ofyi the battle. Wreaths
from the families Of those who took
part, from the army and navy, and from
the government are arranged around the
base, and special policemen are detailed
to keep the thousands of people who
visit the square moving. Mr.. LaPeno

Mr.. LaPenotiere will remain abroad
for several months and will visit Paris
