Beloved brother, not all of these stor-

Science the Farmers Aid.

The government spends $720,000
year in maintaining agricultural ex-
pertinent stations. To those unfa-
miliar with the vast benefit that has
accrued from this branch of the fed
eral service the cost will appear larger
than the returns justify. One of the
practical results Of scientific agricul-
tural research that will appeal to the
layman was recently given out by Pro-
fessor c. F. Curtiss, director of the
Iowa agricultural station, who points
out that the addition of a single ker-
mel to the ear Of corn and to the head
of smaller grain would make an in
crease to the nations yield of 5,000,-
900 bushels of corn, 100000 bushels
of wheat and 100000 bushels of
oats. These are figures sufficiently
significant of the results to be
wrought by government experiments
to emphasize the practical value Of
the work that is going on among these
observation-disclosures City Journal.

Pathological View Of Bribery.

Gov. Garvin of Rhode Island has not
much confidence in the deterrent
effect of laws against corrupt prac-
tees, because in the present degrade
ton of public sentiment on the sub
ject such laws are easily evaded, as
are laws regarding taxation of per-
sonal property. The laws of our
states against corrupt practices are
not enforced as similar laws are in
Great Britain. Being a physician, be
gives what we may call a pathological
view of the disease Of bribery: THE
underlying cause of bribery in cleo.

esteem It almost priceless, and the

A BAD ACCIDENT.
Miss Alva WeddIe Loses a
Finger by the Premature
Discharge Of a
Shotgun.

Saturday afternoon about halfpast
four or five O'Clock Miss Alva We'd
die, daughter OF Mrs. Sam Weddle
residing about seven miles southwest
OF town while shooting at birds to
scare them away from the cherry
trees, lost the fore finger OF the left
hand and the end oi her thumb by
the accidental discharge OF the gun
she was using.
Miss Meddle is 20 or II years OF
age and is said to be perfectly iamil.
lar with the use OF fire arms and an
expert shot with rifle or shot gun.
The gun used on this occasion was
d single barrel pump gun, which she
had borrowed from Mr.. Berry
neighbor.
In shooting at the birds shell
failed to explode and she pumped
another in the gun. She then put
her fore finger in the muzzle of the
gun to remove some dirt which she
got in it In extracting the shell. At
this instant the gun was discharged
and the Anger was blown to atoms
and the flesh on the thumb from the
joint was stripped off to the bone.
DR.. Boulware was summoned by
telephone and assisted by DR.. Lusk
OF Nyhart, amputated the stub OF
the fore finger at the joint, dressed
the hand and she is getting along as
we'll as could be expected.
