Don't wait until you cannot do any
thing else and then rush to the p. o.
with an armful of packages and expect
to get waited on at once, as there might
be others.
Don't have your packages wrapped mp
in colored paper as it is almost impossi-
BILE to read writing by lamplight.
Don't use q lead pencil to address
either a letter or a package as it looks
cheap, and liable to rub off and get lost.
Dou't ask the postofice force to lick
your stamps or tie up your packages as
they have troubles of their own.
Don't stand at the general delivery
window and lick stamps; some one else
might want to buy stamps or call for
their mail.
Don't fail to put your name and
address upon the upper left hand corner
OF your packages unless you are ashamed
of it, and in that case ask some man or
the Legislature to change 1t for you.
Don't wait until the last day to send

going into the ceiling. The gun hap
pened to be tilted just right otherwise
that whole row Of "kids' would have
a list of killed and wounded. The
charge spent itself in a bunch of dressed
ducks which were hanging upstairs. 1t
was no joking matter, but this suggests
that a bunch of ducks killed twice is far
preferable to a flock of "kids" killed
at all.

Heavy and Light Weight Seeds.

AL the Minnesota Experiment Sta
ton analyses were made OF heavy and
light weight seeds of barley oats and
wheat. The heavy weight seeds were
solid and well filled. The light weight
seeds were imperfectly filed. It WAS
round in the light weight seeds that
the proportion OF nitrogen, phosphor-
us and potassium was greater than
In The heavy weight seeds. In the
heaVy weight seeds, the amount of
starch was SO great that the proper
ZION OK the other elements was small.
IL was, however. learned that the ag-
gregate amount of nitrogen, phos-
phorus and potassium was greater in
the heavy weight seeds. The mere
TACT of the percentage OF the three
elements being greater in the low
weight seeds counts for nothing when
the product of an acre is considered;
that is, from the producers stand
point, because an acre would produce
more nitrogen In the heavy weight
seeds than in the light weight seeds.
But from the feeders standpoint, 1t
is different. 1t may be that the light
weight seeds on the basis of hun
dred pounds for the food OF any live
stock, including poultry, would be
greater than with the plump seed. III
would appear to be to the advantage
to the man in buying seed for feeding
to select the low weight seed, while
1t would be for the interest Of the
man raising the seed to produce the
plump seed, as he would thus sell off
from his farm great deal of starch,
which is product of the atmosphere.
In selling the low weight seeds, he
would be disposing of nitrogen, phos-
phorus and potassium at very low
prices, possibly below their value as
a fertilizer

A Minnesota Fish Story.

John Munter and John Frankson re-
turned recently from weeks outing
at Swan lake. Mr.. Munter tells this
fish story:
Monday night we were crossing the
lake in small boat, when saw some
thing floating on the surface of the
water. Frankson said it was a fish,
and stuck to it that it was a piece of
wood that had been driven by the
wind into the middle of the lake
''Frankson insisted that it was a
fish, and was so sure of it that he fired
shot at it from a shotgun. Imagine
my surprise when | saw a monster
pickerel Topping about in the water
We secured the fish and it weighed
close up to twenty pounds.

Alfalfa In Indiana

Indiana, as well as neighboring
states, is interested in the growing of
alfalfa. Experiments in all parts of
the state where it is grown have
shown all kinds of results. In some
places the returns have been good,
and in others not enough alfalfa has
been obtained to pay the cost of the
seed. 1t Is well that Professor Fish
er has undertaken to, find out the
requisites for obtaining a good stand
OF alfalfa In Indiana. He has tried the
growing of this plant under a variety
of conditions and a variety of treat
ments. He comes to the conclusion
that any Indiana soil that will grow
corn Will also grow alfalfa, but that
open soils are most to be preferred.
He finds incubation of the soil to be
generally desirable, and in some cases
1t is absolutely necessary to secure a
stand. In corresponding with a large
number of farmers, he found the
causes of failure were various. One
of these causes was poor drainage;
another was pasturing the alfalfa
while 1t was young, the stock eat
ing it down to the ground. In some
places weeds grew up and took posses
sion of the field before the alfalfa
could get start. In some cases, in
oculation was not practiced where it
should have been, and no crop result
ed The causes that have led to fail
ure in Indiana are the same causes
that result in failure in other parts of
the humid west.

Advantages of Good Culture.


Reports from the Ontario Expert
ment Station give a report of the an
nual yields of different crops in On
tario for the past twenty-three years.
Some of the yields per acre are as
follows: Barley, 1901 pounds; win
ter wheat, 1,21S pounds; oats, 1877
pounds; peas, LILO pounds; beans,
1925 pounds; spring wheat, 942
pounds; buckwheat, 1886 pounds; rye.
913 pounds. These same crops. ex-
cept beans, show an average consider
ably higher for the years 1902, 1903
and 1904 than for the % years. Dur

FRUITFUL FURNACES
INTENSE HEAT PRODUCES
PRECIOUS STONES.
Scientists Have Succeeded In Pluck
ing Real Diamonds and Rubies from
the Crucible of the Furnace.

Recent advices from France state
that Prof. Moissan, the eminent sci
enlist and inventor, has actually sue
ceeded in making genuine diamonds
and rubies. He employs for this pur-
pose the electric furnace, which has
been SO improved that degree of
heat can be produced, approaching the
extreme temperatures, which were I'M
doubtedly a factor In the formation of
minerals and gems in the interior OF
the earth.
The rubies obtained are OF large
size. weighing 10 or Is carats, and in
quality and color equal and even sur
pass those found in the earth. The
natural forces attending the formation
of diamonds seem TO have been more
complicated, and so far the diamonds
resulting from the efforts of the sci
entists have been very small, but still
they are positively identified as the
carbon crystalline diamond. They
are remarkably clear and bright, and
on a small scale as fine specimens as
natures own product.
The electric furnace has enriched
chemistry with whole series OF
new compounds. Probably the one OF
most value to mankind at large is Cal

Slave~s Caused a Famine.

One of the worst famiNes ever
known in lower Egypt was caused by
a couple of John Bulls gunboats. The
vessels went up into the marshes be-
yond Khartum, to capture slave trad
ers.
The slavers, who had made up their
minds not to be caught easily, made a
bold bid for freedom by cutting chan
nels through the mass of vegetation
which lined the main stream of the
ME.
The majority of them escaped in
this way, but the channels they cut
in their anxiety to get away brought
ruin and famine to lower Egypt. The
current carried the masses of lose
vegetation down the river, and so
completely blocked it that the Nile
food failed.

weeds follow certain crops; when the
weeds get too strong, change crops.
Second-Change the method of cuI.
tivating. Pillow per or shallower.
or use different harrow or cultiya.
tor
Third-Cultivate frequently with
light surface tools.
Fourth-Sow clean seeds.
Fifth - Don't let weeds run to
seed on the manure pile or anywhere
on the farm.
sixth-Hogs and sheep win clean
up the weeds on foul fallow land. It
5 said that a weed will not germin-
ate after a sheep has dropped on It.

STRONGER THAN MEAT.
A Judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts


A gentleman who has acquired a
judicial turn of mind from experience
on the bench out in the Sunfower
State. writes a carefully considered
opinion as to the value of Grape-Nuts
as food. He says:
For the past years Grape-Nuts
has been prominent feature in our
bill Of fare.
THE crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indispensa-
Bile necessity in my familys everyday
life.
1T has proved to be most healthful
and beneficial, and has enabled us to
practically abolish pastry and pies
from our table, for the children prefer
Grape-Nuts and do not crave rich and
unwholesome food.
"Grape-Nuts keeps us all in perfect
physical condition-as a preventive of
disease 1t is beyond value. have been
particularly impressed by the benef-
cial effects of Grape-Nuts when used
by ladies who are troubled with face
blemishes, skin eruptions, etc. 1t
clears up the complexion wonderfully.
AS to its nutritive qualities. my ex-
perience is that one small dish of
Grape-Nuts is superior to a pound Of
meat for breakfast. which is an inn
portant consideration for anyone. II
satisfies the appetite and strengthens
the power Of resisting fatigue, while
Its use involves none OF the disagree
able consequences that sometimes fol-
