New yora Americans Win From the Atlanta
Team.

ATLANTA, April Things were looking
mighty bad for the New York Americans
up 10 the ninth inning to-day. when a batting
rally enabled them to run up five runs. The
Atlanta pitcher, Harley, had the New Workers
at his mercy until his place was taken at the
bat by Stinson in the seventh inning. 1t
was the %latter's timely single which gave
Atlanta her only run. The one tally looked
mighty big to Griffith even after the ninth
had gotten under way. Klelnow, the first
man up. was an easy out. Eddie Hahn was
then substituted for GARRISON and he man
aged 10 beat his way to the bag on four balls,

Greatest of Civil War Engineers

Greatest of Civil War Engineers
Dying in New York InfirmGry.
One of the greatest engineers that the
Civil War produced is dying in a New
York infrmary This is Brig. Gen Ed
ward W. Serrell, aged 80, a native of New
York City, known through the Army Of
the Potomac as old Shovels." He was
chief engineer of the Department of the
South, Z. S. A.; chief of staff under Ben
Butler; close friend of Gen. Mcclellan,
Lincoln and Seward, and the originator
of gigantic constructive enterprises.
Serrell designed the Hoosac tunnel on
the line between Albany and Boston. He
has completed plans for tunneling a ships
canal across the ISthmuS of Daren, in
competition with the government water
way at Panama. He planned the electric
harbor defense scheme used during the
SpaniSh-American war whereby the ex-
act position of the enemy's warSlips could
be located.
During the Civil War he invented a
torpedo catcher composed of a net weight
ed by 10-inch shells filed with sand and
buoyed by empty whisky casks. At the
attack on Charleston the device, stretch
ed across Lighthouse Inlet, saved the
federal fleet by catching sixteen Confed-
crate torpedoas in one night. Perhaps the
most remarkable feat of his career, how
ever, was Gen. Serrell's planting of the
terrible Swamp Angel battery in bot
tomless quaking bog when all other engi-
neers said the project was hopeless. The
credit of this achievement belongs to Ser
rell. Had not this powerful seven-inch
Parrott cannon. with its eleven attend
ant Black Island guns been mounted in
the swamps the siege of Charleston would
probably have been failure.

The American farmer is leading the
world to-day because he has vast
domain of rich soil and because con-
ditions have forced him to adopt ma
chimes to help hen in his work. In
some parts CT the world agriculture is
still dependent on hand labor, and the
returns from the land are small. The
farm laborer is poorly paid because he
is able to produce little. After all, it
is what man produces that counts,
and prices gradually come to that
basis. Had the American farmer re
fused to adopt new machines, as have
the farmers OF some other lands, we
would still be poor nation, and the
farmer would be hardly more than the
peasant he is in other lands
But the American farmer has had
the genius to try every new thing. He
has been SO forward that the conf
dence man has found him an easy be-
ing TO fleece; but it is better TO be
heeced once in while than to make
no progress ut all Every new ma
chine that appears on the market
should be thoroughly investigated be-
fore purchase or rejection Happily
at this time We have sixty experiment
stations, at each one of which are men
that understand farm machinery. At
some of these stations are large col
lectiOns of farm machinery. and in
several instances agricultural schools
have courses including the study of
farm machinery. Any farmer who
wants information concerning a new
or IN old machine can get it by writ
ing TO the experiment station of his
State. The experimenters are a little
backward about condemning or ap-
proving machines. because they do
not care to have their reports used as
advertisements. but the inquirer who
what he wants TO know about the quail
ity of q machine. This is especially
true of machines that have little or no
merit
The American Farmes has mads
progress by this readiness to use farm
machinery, ard he will make further
progress in tle same way. Good farm
machinery is more abundant to-day
than ever before, and we believe that
there are fewer poor machines on the
market than ever before. This Is q
cause for generalization on the part
of the American farmer.-Farme,s Re-
view.

Why City Farmers Fail.

An anxious city man writes that he
is earning nearly $50 a week in his
city work and asks if it would be a
wise move for him to throw up his
job, move onto a farm and go into debt
about $1,000. Here Is case where
we can advise strongly in the negative.
The unfortunate part of the proposition
is that the man in question says he is
able to save but little money. This be-
ing the case he had best do some rigor-
Gus pruning on the expense side of his
affairs. Many men are similarly locat-
ed in a large city, but within daily
reach of his business, though few OF
them enjoy such an income.
In similar cases it would be an ex-
cellent plan to buy smaller farm near
some live town and within easy reach
of the city so that he could go back
and forth daily. Keep the city posi-
ton, move the family on to the farm
and use a portion of the income to hire
a good farmer to run the place. This
can be done, and if he and his family
are fairly economical he will find his
weekly salary will readily cover all
expenses, assuming that the farm yields
no income, which would be a suppo-
sition hardly fair. This plan would
enable him to have a general superyis-
ion of the farm night and morning, his
family would be healthier and happier
and soon the farm would yield a fair
income. A young friend, on a salary
of $50 a week, is doing this same thing
and is paying for his farm out of its
returns, together with the saving from
his salary over previous expenses. 9th
ers can do it if they go about it right.
