When Coffee Was Unpopular

Coffee was introduced into England
IN 1862, and within the next ten years
became the fashionable drink of Lon
don. a few years later, however, in
1868, there was a great uprising
against the "oriental beverage of
hades.' It was satirized on every
hand, the bitterest invectives coming
from the pulpit. One leading minis
ter characterized it as "the sirup Of
SCOT mixed with the essence Of old
shoes,' and another declared that it
was ga poison which oGd had made
black that it might bear the devil 3
own color.' This bitter crusade soon
wore itself out, and by the time Of
Charles II coffee houses were known
in every village in the land.

NOTICE SCHOOL TRUSTEES,

The trustees Of the various School
Districts who intend to prepare a list
OF the polls and dogs in their district
for 1907 will please do so at once
and hand same to some member Of the
board of assessors from their town
ship, between the 5th and 10Th of
March, as the boards will be in ses-
sion then.
If possible the School Trustees or
their clerk should meet with the
board Of assessors and see that each
poll and dog is properly entered. I
think by this method we can avoid
erroneous entries and increase the
school fund in each district.

the leaders. Szisz was second, in 6
hours, SO minutes and 10 seconds;
Lancia third. The race was marked
by no serious accidents, although a
minor collision occurred between two

MCFARLAND said five men came to his
shop and said they wanted him. He
was marched between lines Of soldiers
to the train and taken to Colorado

Santa Fe road and taken to within q
short distance of the Kansas line. The
engineer of the train refused to take
the men across the state line.
"After we left the train three vol

were told to never come back" said
Mcfarland. I'VE went into the fields
for some time, when along came a

MED that he had ever assisted Orchard

Union Pacific powderhouse or any
where else.

tion with Orchard about blowing up
q hotel?"
Eyes, sir. Orchard came to me one
day and asked me If 1 could tell him
how the hotel was situated. l had
worked there two years and told him
what I knew. He then asked me If l
didn't want to come along and help
him blow it up. I told him no; that I
wouldn't stick any finger in it, as I
never intended to kill anybody"
Mehliet said he never talked with
Orchard as to any attempt on Gov

1t is complained that modern condi-

middle ages." But medieval tales
and romances show what that chivalry
really was. Wife beating was COM
mon incident on the part Of those
knights and gentlemen whose gallantry
was mere convention. The Chevalier
de la Tour-Landry in his book Of coun-
sells to his daughters tells them the
story Of a woman who used to contra
diet her husband in public. One day,
after expostulating in vain, he knock
ed her down, then kicked her face and
broke her nose "And So" comments
the good chevalier, "she was disfg-

behavior and bad temper, she had her
nose spoiled, which was a great mis-
fortune to her." But not a word Ia said
about the husbands brutality.

WAY TO USE FERTILIZERS.

Striking illustration of the result of
the liberal manuring of grass land are
afforded by cooperative experiments
conducted by the Rhode Island Station
upon the farm of GeoBgo Rowland, Of
jamestown, r. L., and of j. Overton
Peckham, of Middletown, R. l. In the
former case the value Of the crop with
out chemical manuros was $10.27 and
with chemical manures $52.50 an acre.
The basis of valuation was SIG ton
for barn cured hay, with about IL per
cent moisture. The value of the hay in the
latter case, when chemical manures were
omitted, was but 1888 an acre, but
when the chemical manures were used
the value of the crop rose to $42. % an
acre. In the former case the invest
ment in the manures paid profit of
1875 per cent, and in the latter case 100
per cent. The following were the ma
nures applied, in pounds an acre Nj
trate of soda, $50; muriate of potash,
300; acid phosphate, 600.
It should not be expected that equal
" great profits would be obtained on
rich land which does not stand in such
need Of chemical manures. Further
more, the applications must be proper
tionately reduced upon land which is in
good condition and is well supplied with
available plant food The amount Of
allowance in this respect must depend
upon the good Judgment of the owner,

an account is given of the hay crops for

was employed as follows, in pounds an
OGRE Nitrate of soda, 100; muriate of
potash, 1870; bone-black, 300 Cor the
same mount of high-grade acid phos-

AS result, many of the grass crops
ranged around or below ton and a-half
an acre In few instances they rose
to from two and a.half to more than
three tons, and only two exceptionally
large crops were secured in the course
Of seven years from the six plots of land
involved in the experiment. Upon
changing the grass formula the yields
all rose greatly, and seven out of nine
of them ranged from about four to five
and a-half tons an acre. In addition
to this, clover crops were now secured
in the rye year, following the removal
of that crop, and these ranged from
more than half ton to one and a-half
tons an acre. The formula after the
change was as follows, in pounds per
a1re: Nitrate of soda, $50; acid phos-
phate, 500; muriate of potash, 200.
Whether further increase in the
amount of potash applied would still in
crease the yields Of clover remains
question. At all events, these results 60
to show that it does not pay to be too
parsimonious in the use of chemical
manures, and that one of the prime es-
sentials in conjunction with lining is to
use generous amounts of potash salts

The defense of different persons
claiming to be the Messiah has cost
the Jews great expense, both in
treasure and human life. One of these,
Coziba, who lived In the second cen

head of the Jewish nation as their
Messiah, and many of that people ad-

made by eminent Jewish authority,
