Dry Land Farming.

Within recent years the possibilities of
dry land farming have begun TO be real
lied not only by the department of agri-
culture, but by the various experiment
stations in the arid states.
The old rain belt was formerly consid-
cred as limited to the area in which the
average rainfall was about 20 inches per
year. Dry land farming, however, is now
being successfully practiced in many To-
Calities where the rainfall ranges from
s to Is inches per year.
In parts of Montana spring wheat and
alfalfa yield large and profitable crops
without irrigation and with a rainfall OF
II inches. Similarly i'll Utah dry land
farming has yielded excellent results with
wheat, barley and TO a somewhat less
extent with alfalfa. In the interior of
Oregon there are immense areas planted
to wheat and yielding 20 TO - bushels
per acre with rainfall not exceeding
inches per year.
The results obtained by the thousands
of farmers who are engaged in this line
of agriculture have called attention Il
the great possibilities of dry land farm
ing and have made it apparent that there
are thousands of acres of land containing
| almost unlimited plant food which viii
Weld good crops under n system of dry

TACT.
Woman's Best Gift-Compared with 9th
er Elements of Character.

W hat IS the most popular quail ) ia
woman? The question was suggest,G 2
writes Il Parisienne, 'by Il cosmopoljtpn
reunion of friends in Paris one night
this week and the various opinions civ
Ell supplied food for thought. The Eu-
rOpean countries were well represented
half a dozen Parisians, four Spaniards
two of each sex) a Russian, who had
been famous beauty in the years that
are gone by, and one Irishwoman, who
had to represent the British empire in
her own person.
The Parisians, without exception, de
clared that esprit was the quality which
CLEANED most love; the Spaniards voted
for beauty, and the Russian for personal
magnetism. The Irish woman tentative
~ uttered the single word tact 1t was
a thoroughly enjoyable evening, and ev-
cry one took part in the discussion with
real pleasure, but when tact was the
subject matter it was Il case of eleven
voices to one. They all agreed that this
quality, though eminently desirable was
too impersOnal to attract love.
Il wonder if readers of this para
graph will also deride tact as magnet
for love Personally / think it repre-
sents the axle on which the wheel of
happy life revolves. Beauty if adorable
have, and one which gives her the right
of entry into most places but it is not
enough. Esprit is a dangerous will-o'-
the-wiSp, which leads its worshipers into
uncomfortable positions, for a noted wit
can rarely resist the temptation to say a
clever thing even when it gives untold
pain to some other person.
IF you think the matter over con-
tinues this critic, you will see that
fslftt' Oh 4 ~,
ing and capturing of the miSchievouS
little blind godi The most beautiful
woman in the world will quickly be
come undesirable if she does not take
the trouble to rub ones fur the right
way; or, at least if she does not avoid
rubbing it backward, Esprit is IL de-
lightful quality i'll salon. but do we
care to live with it when life is clouded
over and when the sun or success re-
fuses TO shine? Tact-at its bcst-is Il
gift of nature; certainly it cannot be
learned. OF course, we can train our
selves to avoid giving offense, and we
can cultivate a sweet manner but the
true tact which attracts universal love is
born, not made, and of all Natures gifts
it is the most desirable.
The woman who possesses it will
never give or permit one kiss too many;
she will never ask undesirable questions:
she will never see the things which she
is not expected TO see.
The woman of Unborn tact is Il crea-
ture of whom men never tire. to whom
women turn i'll moments of trouble to
whom girls cling. If she be beautiful
and witty, so much the better; but she
will not let either of these qualities leap
to the surface. 1t is well known fact
that forgiveness may follow in the train
of physical injury, but never in that of
wounded vanity; it is equally true that
most persons deeply resent being re
minded of weaknesses when the weak
moment is past. The woman of tact
sees all-and sees nothing; hears all
and hears nothing. '-London Tribune.

Confederate Cavalry Numerous.

The war department continues to re-
ceive claims from Southerners who lost
their horses in the Civil war on their re-
turn to their homes from service with the
Confederate army. For several years
claims of this sort have been paid by
the quartermaster general under spe.
cial provision of law. to meet which
three appropriations have been made on
each occasion. with the expectation that
there would be no further demand for
funds for the purpose. The auditing Off
Gals say that there will probably be no
end to the claims of this sort aud they
10 not favor an extension of the period
of allowance or additional appropriations
to meet these belated bills. 1t was ex-

diving days Of the ConfeGeracy than has
been dreamed OF in the surviving records.
These horse claims have probably
reached their limit.
