Danger in Beans.

The considerable danger in allow
ing animals to Craze on so-called
second growth sorghum is generally
recognized. Many animals have gone
into such fields and have died within
a few minutes. The general con-
'clusion now is that the cause of
death is from the hy%drocyanic or
prussic acid in the leaves. In fact,
this seems to have been comparative
ly we'll established. We now learn
from the Annals of Veterinary Medi-
cine, in an article by G.! Mosselman,
that lima beans involve a similar
danger and that according to ex-
periments made 500 grammes, or
slightly over n pound Of beans
may be enough to kill a horse, and
if fed in larger quantities the result
may be fatal even after cooking.
The leaves Of the cultivated varie-
ties were found to be toxic, but this
varied greatly according to the age
of the plant and the stage Of vege-
tation. Where the plants or beans
contained free hydrocyanic acid the
animals refused to eat them and this
was found to be the case with rab-
bits and guinea pigs after allowing
them to fast for two days. The
author suggests that all varieties OF
these beans may not be poisonous
aud that it may depend to some ex-
teut upon the soil and nature OF the
Observation-Disclosures Planter.

Royal Princes Love Story.

Royal romances are coming thick
and fast in this rather staid and
phlegmatic city. Another prince,
Eberwyn of Northumberland, has
declared himself most happy in hav-
ing broken away from the traditions
of his house and cut loose from me-
diaeval prejudices by his marriage
with Lily ~Langenfeld, the daughter
of a retired tradesman, who began
life as a peasant. The story is ro-
mantle and rather pretty.
Christian Langenfeld while yet a
boy abandoned agriculture and OBJ
tanned a position in a State school.
Then he went into business and be-
came Mayor of a small town. He
prospered and in time retired. Last
summer he, with his daughter, Lily,
went to Weisbaden for the cure. Lily
is a tall, graceful, pretty girl, full of
vivacity. The Prince saw her, sue
ceeded in being presented and i'm
mediately fell in love. In two weeks
he proposed. At first Herr Langen-
field, approaching the difficulties,
would not listen; but the Princes en-
thusiasm finally overcame every OBJ
stacle and an engagement was. en-
tered into. Realizing the sacrifices
the marriage would involve, the
Prince wrote to his father renounc-
ing his birthright, which also meant
the giving up of an income OF a mill
ion a ear.
Every pressure was brought to
bear to dissuade the Prince. Even
prophecies of the probable unhappy
results of a marriage between per-
sons of such dissimilar tastes and
birth, but he would listen to no OBJ
lection, and finally arranged for the
wedding, which took place in London
at the office of a register. In place
of great wealth the family had ar
ranged to allow the Prince a sufi-
cient income to enable him to live in
comfort as a gentleman farmer. He
says that he places his happiness and
that of his bride above ancient pref
udices. In short, for him the world
is we'll lost for love.-Berlin Cores

The Tenant Problem.

Il am buying me some tenants"
said a farmer the other day. cts
this way" he continued; 'you can
scarcely get a tenant on any terms.
l know some who want to move, but
they can't get away because they
haven't paid up last years accounts.
Now, | am paying these bills in order
to get them" There is nothing par
ticularly new about this idea except
it emphasizes the scarcity of farm
help. 1t is by reason of this scarcity
that we hear so much talk of secur-
ing immigration for the South. Mr..
I. K. Bruner, secretary Of the State
Board of Agriculture, says that Dr..
Chas. D. McIver proposed a good plan
for getting good immigrants. 1t is
that land owners who have lands for
sale and who want a colony of indus
trious people to settle about them so
as to create a community interest and
to promote the sale of adjoining
lands, should u~Ereservedly donate,
say, ten acres upon something like
the following conditions: That the
party accepting them would, on his
part, agree to build a home and i'm
prove the property by proper cultiva-
ton, and that be would live upon it
for a term of five years, with the un-
Outstanding that at any time during
the five years the adjoining lands,
ten, twenty or thirty acres, may be
purchased at so much per acre. The
price of the additional lands being
fixed at the time the donation is &C
cepted, becomes really a part of the
contract and would preclude any ad-
vance in the price during the five
year period. Should the tenant leave
the holding before the time, the i'm
provements would become the prop
erty of the donor.-Monroe Journal.

pays we'll. To ship poultry you want
to kill and scald simply enough to re-
move the feathers. You do not re-
move the head, feet or entrails. Al
ter you have removed the feathers
you lay out, until the animal heat is
all gone, then you pack nicely in a
barrel. In the winter you do. not
need any ice, but in summer ice
would be necessary. If you wish to
get all out of your poultry that there
is in them, get in connection with
some good dealer in your nearest city
and get him to keep you posted.
When the demand is good you can
send them in thus packed at cheaper
express and get more for them as you
can sell by the pound. We must
learn to put up all our produce in the
most saleable form. Asserting and
packing are where the money is made
these days. When you get a trade
built up, you can then buy and han
die for your neighbors. This is the
way to realize the most for your
chickens and turkeys.-Southern Cul'

two smart little headdresses his wife
had been wearing to the theatre
lately were homemade affairs. Re-
Gently he discovered they were pur-
chased from an importer and that
each cost twice as much as any of
the hats in her collection. One of
the high-priced affairs that is spe-
cially becoming to her blonde type
OF beauty consists simply of a huge
chou of closely quilted white tulle
with a blue and green humming bird
poised upon it as if for fight. This
is worn at the left side toward the
front of the head, a position where it
does not interfere with the view of
the theatre-goer in the chair behind.
The delicate tail plumage of the bird
curves gracefully down over the back
of the hair and a fold of the tulle
circles the knot of curls atop of the
head. In. another headdress a
straight upright band OF silver net
embroidered in pearls is set in a
semicircle behind the waves of the
pompadour. Finishing it at either
end is a chou of white tulle, the one
at the left-hand side holding a clus-
ter of white~osprey which droops over
the hair to the shoulder. The pearls
used in the embroidery Of the net
are in all sizes, from baroque to the
tint seed variety.-New York Press.

Cleaning Up the Chufas.

Mr.. J. F. O'Berry has a novel
scheme for outwitting the birds and
getting the most possible good out
of his chufas, of which he raises a
great many for fattening hogs for
market. He takes one-hMf his shoats
and barrows, or meat hogs, and cuts
a notch in the rim of the snout,
which destroys the muscles of the
member and prevents them from
roofing. He then turns them in on
his chufas with about one old SOW to
every forty, which has not had her
roofing propensities interfered with.
He says the non-rooters will soon
learn to follow the rooters around
and eat the chufas as they are turned
up, and that in this way no more of
the nuts are rooted up than can be
destroyed by his hogs. In this way
the large droves of birds which usu-
ally flock to the chufa fields to feed
on the nuts after they are rooted up
by the hogs are deprived of their
share of the feed and it all goes to
help make pork.-Kissimmee Valley
Gazette.

Disagreeable Traits.

Don't try to be boss. 1t is one of
the surest and most direct routes to
unpopularity, yet many women travel
thereon to their W undoing.
1t is each individuals prerogative,
upon reaching years of discretion, to
shape his W affairs. Wise is the
woman who keeps this ever in mind
and grants as we'll as exacts this
privilege, she it is VINO numbers her
friends by the score and whose do
mestic life is most serene.
Your bump of executive ability
may be abnormal in size, but take
warning and confne it to the man
agement of your own business.
Don't distribute it gratuitously
among your friends, unless, indeed,
you desire to get rid Of them.
Never fear, due honor will be ac-
corded you by the devotees who wor-
ship at the shrine of each and who
are ever on the lookout for additions
to the ranks.
On the other hand, if your family
tree is but a mere dwarf, your friends
few and your fortune conspicuous by
it's absence, no amount of boasting
will deceive people; for truth has a
way of leaking out and reacts upon
one at the most unexpected moment.
Don't be a free distributor of ad-
vice. There is no market for it. Its
very cheapness kills the demand

CAPITAL and Results.

1t costs but little to make a begin
ming with poultry, for the reason
that domestic fowls are very prolific,
and the focks can be made to in
crease RAPIDLY if care is given. To
begin with, 500 hens will require
capital at the start, as the fowls must
be purchased, and suitable buildings
prepared, but it is not difficult to Sc
cure large focks on limited capital
if the beginning is made with a few
fowls and the number gradually in
creased, as the increase of the flock
is also an increase Of capital. A
flock of hens returns an income
daily, thus assisting to provide cap
ital, and it is better to commence
with a few, and gradually increase to
a larger number than to take risks
without experience in management.

water; three pounds Of ground rice
boiled to a thin paste and stir in
boiling hot; half a pound of pow
dered Spanish whiting and a pound
of glue which can be previously dis
solved over a slow fire, and add five
gallons of hot water to the mixture,
stir we'll and let it stand for a few
days, covered up from the dirt. It
should be put on hot. One pint of
the mixture will cover a square yard

best. There is nothing that a COM

Anthrax or Charlton.

Dr.. V. Galtier (Jour. Med. Vet. ct
Zootech.) indicates that while the
virus of CHAMBERS is quite easily af-
fected by the essence of %turpentine,
that the anthrax bacilli are far less
susceptible. In some experiments,
however, made in inocculating guinea
pigs and rabbits with anthrax virus,
followed by vaccination with O.25
&C. of essence of turpentine, the
latter appeared in all cases to pro-
long life somewhat and in a few
cases the animals recovered entirely
from what would otherwise have
been a fatal dose. We are naturally
led to wonder whether or not such
vaccination with turpentine would
have any mitigating effect upon the
disease in horses Or mules? Refer
ence is made to the matter in the U,
S. Experiment Station Record for

How to Rent a Farm,

In the rental of property, the
greater risk is always on the land
lords side. He is putting his prop
erty into the possession and care of
another, and that other is not unfre-
auently a person of doubtful utility.
These rules and cautions may we'll be
observed:
CD Trust to no verbal lease. Let
it be in writing, signed and sealed.
Its stipulations then become COM
mands, and can be enforced. Let it
be signed in duplicate, so that each
party may have an original.
CD Insert such covenants as to
repairs, manner of use, and in re-
straint of waste as the circumstances
call for. AS to particular stipula-
lions, examine leases drawn by those
h have had long experience in
renting farms, and adopt such as
meet your case.
CD There should be covenants
against assigning and undertaking.
(4) 1t the tenant is of doubtful
responsibility, make the rent payable
in lnstallments. A covenant that the
crops shall remain the lessons till
the lessee's contracts with him have
been fulfilled is valid against the les
sees creditors. In the ordinary case
OF renting farms on shares, the courts
will treat the crops as the joint
property of lord and tenant, and thus
protect the formers rights.
60 Every lease should contain
stipuiations for forfeiture and re-
entry in case of non-payment or
breach of any covenants.--Progress-
i've Farmer.

Passing of the Old Maid,

Old maids are dying out. In a
few years time the typical old maid
of our youth will rarely be seen, and
a hundred years hence she will prob
ably be dead altogether. The term
"old maid" is now seldom or never
heard; the expression "bachelor girl
has taken it's place, and many and
happy are the bachelor girls in Brit
ain to-day, with their independence,
their little homes, and their own
well-arranged lives.-London Queen.

Passing of Rings.

A fashionable manicurist is re-
sponsible for the statement that
fewer married women YEA their
wedding rings nowadays.
"Of the several dozen patrons who
frequent u establishment in the
busy season every day not one in six
or seven of the m~atrons is so dis
tinguished," she asserts.
1t is true that the heavy solid
band of former years has been dwin-
ding away to a fragile circle. But
can it be, as the m%anicurist main
tains, that it is passing away alto
gether as a finger ornament. and that
it's sole use is coming to be only to
be carefully preserved with other
interesting relics and keepsakes?

More MaIadieS!

We delight nowadays in new mala-
dies, and the two newest recruits to
the list are the "motor-eye" and the
"collar headache" A possible rem
edy for the "motor-eye"-which is
caused by that organs inability to
grasp the rapid pictures placed be-
fore it on a motor trip-may be the
