the Grand NagGzine gives us Irish Servants

Truth compels the statement that the
servants are much more enlivening than
the big bugs are. There, for example,
was the one called AnAstasia, though that
was a freak Of baptism which was extremely
misleading.
From her first appearance says the
ohronicler, "Anastasia seemed oppressed by
our speech and manner Of address.

HOPE FOR BIG EATERS.

But once In q long while he does get a

him hope recently by telling about famous
old men who had been hearty eaters.

ACADEMY NOTES

Prof Wilson's lectures at the
Academy every day are well at.
tended and much appreciated by
the students. The professor is
highly gratified with interest taken
by those who have led out in these
matters. He is also pleased with the
attitude of the people here, and says
the Gila Valley people take more
interest in the work of the expert
ment station than do many Of the
people in the Salt River valley
where the institution is located.
He has been greeted by good au
diences at most of bis lectures but
some of the towns seem to prefer
carnival shows TO farmers insti-
tutes. 1t is to be hoped that such
attractions will not detract from
the lectures by Professors Thorn
Der and Forbes, to which attention
has already been called in the
columns of local papers. Intensive
farming instead of extensive farm
ing will soon be the policy Of the
farmers of this section. The ex-
press Office at Globe, it is reported,
received $4,000 for charges on I'M
ported goods last month, fully half
of which goods we ought to have
produced in this valley. 1t will
pay us to wake up TO our pos.
sibilities.

rather small was very apprecia-
