 There will be some farmers to doubt the remarkable success achieved by Mir. Stephens on his small farm. but his after party of visitors have driven out to look at 1t. The principal factor in MT. Stephens remarkable success with his farm has been his personality. He is an untiring worker. And heswatches his farm as close as any business man watches his business. 1t will hardly be denied that the average farmer does not give the same absorbing thought. care and planning to his farm as the average business man gives to his bus mess. If this is rule. Mir. stephens is an exception to the rule. He goes over every foot of his farm and plans for every row. And so his individual effort is largely responsible for his record breaking yield
 His methods are scientific. And yet, he is not a book farmer. He never stu-' died farming from it's scientific side. He adopted scientific methods farm he found that they paid.
 He is great on seed selection. The scientific agriculturfsts say that the proper selection of seed Is a most fm- portant factor in making a farm pay. hfr. Stephens has found this to be true He learned 1t with hard knocks in the school of experience.
 He has been seven years In Mont~ romery County and during that time he has been working carefully and patiently in the selection of seed best adapted to the soil and the conditions of Montgomery County. His farm is all upland, a part of the old Westcott place which was in cultivation many years before the war. He has devoted his knowledge and experience 10 a careful selection of seed which will be most prolific and fruitful on up- land. such as the environs of Mont gonaary are made of. He has achieved a success in this and he confidently claims that in his stephens Proiific." a variety of cotton which he has devel- opcd he has a seed that is capable of "a bale to the Nacre." with any sort of a care and attention on upland. He is selling this seed and his neighbors who have witnesses his success at cot- ton raising have been liberal pur- chasers.
 He is perhaps prouder of his accom- plishments in potato growing than in anything else. And there, too, he has

 At midnight Saturday. the MontgoH- cry pcstofIice, as well as every other 'postoface in the United States. com pIeted a big job. Since midnight of saturday, October 12, the postofhces have been counting and classifying every piece of mail going out or the ofiice. Not this alone, but an account of the revenue in postage for this mall matter has been accurately kept.
 Under direc tons of the department, this work was to be continued exactly a week, pursuant to an act of Con- gress. Postmaster Dimmick said he thinks that Congress required the work done in order to compile statistics as a basis for future Legislation. While this work was in progress, the de- partment issued general orders sus- pending back stamping in postofiices so as to facilitate the count, classtfl- cation and computation of revenue.

 Girard, Oct, 19-(SpeciaO novel sxindling scheme practiced oy country negroes who sell wagon loads of wood on the streets of the city mas come to light.
 At remote spot near the outskirts of the city numbers of the negro wood peddlers when they drive in from the country with wood. throw off their lead and then build pens in the wagon body, covering this over with wood, so that the load has the appearance of being solid. instead of in reality half atmosphere and half fuel. Tn this way a full load of wood can be con- yerted into two. The average citizen who buys wood simply glances at the quantity in the wagon, not dreaming that there are cunningly arranged hol- low spaces under the sticks of wood.
 The spot at which the wood miracle" was daily performed had grown to be a regular rendezvous with negro wood sellers

WIVES OF CIIINAMEN.
MCKE WHITE WOMEN MARRY

Downfall of the White Race Before

suits of Investigation.

About 200 white girls in Chicago
are married to Cinnamon. On an
average of over one a month the Co
lestials of the Windy City continue
to win white brides.
The downfall of the white race
before the yellow in the Japanese
war seems to have inspired not only
the Japs but the Chinese with new
claims of equality One result Is the
Increase Of marriages between white
girls and Cinnamon, which has been
noticed in all our large cities during
the last year.
But the Chicago Tribune. which
has been Investigating the matter.
finds that this wiping out OF racial
prejudices Is not given by the brides
themselves as their reason for choos-
ing Cinnamon Twenty-Five OF the
most recently W lded gave the fol-
lowing as the object of their action:
Love, money, opium, a home, kind
ness.
But back of these assigned rea-
sons Is another and deeper reason.
That is, that a Chinaman, when he
takes a white bride, wipes out her
past entirely and, no matter what
she might have been, she, as his wife
IL honored.
The Chinaman never considers
marriage until he is financially able
to support a wife, in which he differs
from the white races; but, like the
whites, he believes in the power OF
money to make courtship easy-and
he spends lavishly. 1t may take him
weeks to attract the attention OF the
object of his love to himself, but
once he has made her acquaintance
and broken down the racial barrier,
his progress Is rapid.
The social life of the white brides
Of Cinnamon is limited in the ex-
treme Not only are they barred
from any intimate social life with the
Chinese wives. but the lines be-
tween the tongs are closely drawn.
II white girl marries a Chinaman
and her chum happens to marry
Chinaman of another company they
cannot meet except as strangers.
In their own households they rule

there is no trouble. They are sup
piled with plenty Of money to spend
for household wants and with more
than enough for themselves. They
dress beautifully and in most cases
the only complaint uttered by them
IL that they are forced to live in
squalid neighborhoods.
The Chinaman's idea of comfort at
home means the interior. He does
not care about the exterior, how
dingy or even dirty 1t may be, and
he never is in the market for exclu-
sive residence property. An alley
appears to suit him better than q
street, and he seems to prefer q
downtown street, the narrower the
better, to suburban property.
