w. s. HARDWOOD in Country Calendar
Mr.. Burbank's work has followed
two main Hnes-breeding and selection.
BY breeding is meant, primarily, the
creation of a new plant life by placing
the pollen of one flower upon the stlg-
ma Of another.
Selection is the unfailing choosing
of the best, out Of million plants, if
needs be, taking the best one of all
for future work and, from the progeny
of this one plant, selecting the best
on and on until the standard set is
For thirty-five. years Mr.. Burbank
has been at work creating new forms
of plant life and improving old ones.
In that time he has created, by breed

WHERE HE AND HIS SERVED
Booker T. Washington Owns Plantation
Where He Was Raised.
Des Moires Register and Leader

Where He Was Raised.
Des Moines Register and Leader.
II suppose 1t Is not generally known
that Booker T. Washington now owns the
plantation on which he and his people
were slaves" said R. N. Hyde yesterday,
referring to the magnificent speech made
by the head Of Tuskegee at Chautauqua
Sunday. IT have seen it. When I
went east vast year I had the pleasure
of inspecting it. 1t is just above Charles
ton, and Mr.. Washingtons sister resides
in the house, while he spends his sum-
mers there.
"And beneath the trees sleeps the fam
lily of the white man who owned the
Washingtons when they were slaves. In
accordance with the old southern custom
they were inferred on the home planta-
ton when they passed away. Later it
came into the hands Of Mr.. Washington,
and with respect to the former master
the graves were not disturbed, but are
cared for tenderly.
This teaches in concrete form, it
seems to me- the lesson that the colored
man may achieve unlimited successes If
he will work It illustrates the POSSIBLE
ties that he has, as compared with his
condition forty years ago.. The complaint
of the colored race Is not so much with
reference to its disadvantages now as to
the persistence with which the white peo-

is not the black man who commits a
crime that sets the standard for our peo-

judge us from the men who like Wash

something in the world"

In his recent article In the Aurore Of
Paris on the present condition of the
French army, Lieutenant Colonel Picquart
says that the remark of Marshal Moltke,
Everything money can give the French
army possesses, as for the rest we have
the right to make certain reservations, :"
IS still applicable. He declares that
France has an excellent artillery, that the
French rifle is as good as any, that in
case of mobilization French industry
would come effectively to the rescue Of
the military ton, that French
'fortresses are redoubtab1e, and that the
scheme Of railway concentration is good.
Moreover, thus far, in spite Of the greater
population Of Germany, her electives are
not SO far In excess Of those of France
as might be imagined. Both have 1000
officers under arms, and as for non-com-
missioned officers and soldiers, Germany
has 100000, while France has 5000 For
the moment, therefore, the disparity OF
numbers is not alarming. He goes on to
say that the weakness of the French mill
tary system lies not in the soldier, but in
the command. Little change has been
made during the last thirty years in the
mode Of obtaining the French officer.
There Is still great lack of homogeneity,
owing to diversity Of origin and the politi-
cal and religious sdissensions that agitate
the country. The great fact which in
spires confidence In the future-and in
this Germany does not share-is thai
France possesses an indefinite capacity
for the production of such leaders as she
might require in case Of long war
This, he says, Is not the case in coun-
tries where command is the privilege Of q
caste and where an abyss separates the
soldier and the officer

Queer Hardware.
E Queer hardware is to be found in
China and some choice specimens of it
have been collected in the Peabody
museum in Salem, Mass Chinese agri-
cultural implements and Chinese car
penter and mason tools are peculiar, in
the sense that Bret Harte uses the
word, and other Chinese things are pic
turesque.
For instance, a Chinese gentleman Of
the old school takes his cutlery with
him when he goes to dine, a nice as

shirted Mongolians. Several fine speci-
mems Of these chopsticks are contained
in the museum.
Some Chinese guns and weapons are
wonderful tools Of the warrior IS art.
One MATCHBOX gun is ten feet long
and it's butt and stocks look like a
piece Of timber. It is matched by a
spear-like sword equally high and more
ferocious, for it has saw-like edge
and a spike prong. Two-handed swords
are six feet long, and several cannon
suggest those Old revolutionary guns
that are stuck up in New England
towns for hitching posts. A whole ar
senal Of these monstrous weapons
would not stand up for ten minutes

feet long and it's swivel and also it,
