of these were held annually. and dur
ing the events these accounts were
issued, narrating the political events OF
the time. They began in 1880 and last

The first newspaper in Germany, and
probably in the world. was published In
1909 in Strasburg. A whole years Is
sues are still eXtant. Shortly after ita
appearance. in 1915, was founded the
Frankfort Journal, which lived s57
years, and was then sold to another
newspaper of this city.
Germany led the nations in the news
paper enterprise. But Vienna had a
journal in 1910. England in 1922. Italy
in 1880, France in 1851, Spain i'll 1861
and Russia in 1908.

ABUSING THE AGRICULTURAL

1t so happens that the writer IS opposed

hence what follows cannot be called poll
In the secretary of agriculture the
country has q man who knows his bus
ross: he knows what farmers want and
need because he Is Il practical farmer him
self and although ne and his department
have made mistakes they have done Won
dertully well when the small amount of
money at the command of the department
is considered. Consider these figures which
are authentic. The farm products Of tho
United states during 1895 aggregated
ST. lis. 0O0, 900. while the average appropria-
ton for the department of agriculture is
less than $4,000. 1t Is Il fact which no
fair minded man will deny that less is ap-
propriated for agricultural work in this
country. by federal and state government
than to any other of the important indus
tries Notwithstanding the fact that agr.-
culture stands first. Let us help the ag-
ricultural department rather than howl
at its conductors because they do not al
ways spend our money as We would have
them spend 1t. 1t Is sometimes conven-
lent to mako n scapcgoat of another and II
requires only half AN eye TO know that
the agricultural department is many times

, gaHces OF some other department.

~pgEpARING For WINTER.

Perhaps the reader will object to advice
regarding work for winter being done so
early In tho season, but there are several
th:ngs which arc better done now than
later when the demands of the harvest
may cause one to forget their Importance.
Tho thinking man. and especially If he
keeps poultry, remembers the value or
sand and dry light loan during the win
ter and he prepares a bin, under cover. ana
when there is III hour or two to spare dur
ing tho dry summer he gathers loads of
SAND and loan and fills the bins. This
material Is fine for use in the stables as an
absorbent of doors and It is especially
needful in the poultry houses during tho
winter, particularly IL the floors are OF
earth and have to be cleanscd several
times during the winter as they ought to
be. Then. for the poultryman. umnor Is
a good time to look up a liberal supply OF
material for the grit box which can be
located better now than when the snow Is
on tho ground. There is enough in these
hints to set the ~fore-handed man to think
ing what he can do in preparing for win
ter now to the best advantage. Jot 1t down
for the next week If you are busy his
week.
