HOY, to Grow Celery.

DR.. s. B. Partridge of East Bloom
field, N. Y, is raising celery on large
scale on the bed of reclaimed swamp.
He set 125,000 plants last year, of the
dwarf golden self-balancing, and pro-
duces from 1,500 to 1900 dozen
branches Of celery per acre, marketable
at from 20 to 80 cents per dozen. His
celery kept for winter market Is placed
in trenches made by means Of crib,
16 feet long and IA inches wide, which
is placed in the row and filed with Gel
cry. Then a deep bank of earth Is
thrown up on either side to the celery,
after which the crib Is taken up and
moved forward Its length, and the
same process is repeated. The trenches
are left open at the top until the ap-
proach Of cold weather, when they are
covered with straw and earth.-New

Smoking Meat.

In the home smoking of meat I have
learned something by experimenting
that Is a great saver of work and of
much more onsequence-keeps the
meat in better shape during the smok-
Ing process. l used low smokehouse,
and, handle the little necessary fire as
best could, 1t would sometimes heat
the meat more than was good for 1t.
| had the fire covered In little pit
In the center Of the smokehouse. Then
| tried a pit outside several feet from
the building with an underground flue,
but all the heat generated in that went
into the smokehouse, so it was unsat-
lsfactory.
l placed an old heating stove, with
the legs taken Of, on the ground about
eight feet from the side of the smoke
house, put an elbow on the stove and
ran pipe in through the side of the
mokehouse. Then l started a little
fire in the stove, and as the smoke
poured from the funnel it occurred to
me to turn the smoke down, 50 put on
an elbow with mouth pointing down,
and as that worked all right put a
length of pipe on that and watched to
see what the smoke would do. In a
moment 1t poured from the pipe right

| BRING MARY ALONG
~N~N~NN~~N~

When Peter Svendsen, dealer In gen.
erai merchandise, in the little Danish
town of Roskilde, entered his Office in
the morning his clerk handed him a
cablegram from New York.
Now In Svendsen's business cable
grams were few and far between, so he
nervously turned the yellow envelope
several times between his fingers and
read the address twice before he open
ed the message But when he did and
saw the few words it contained, his
kind old face beamed with joy so that
the clerk Immediately felt sure that
now was his chance IN ask for a raise,
which he promptly did with gratifying
result:
The cablegram read.
"Am coming with Christmas boat,
bringing Mary along! George"
So swiftly had old Svendsen never
run up the stairs to his apartments
above the store and nearly losing his
slippers he rushed through all the
rooms, shouting, George is coming
with the Christmas boat
Mrs. Svendsen, who was putting up
the lunch for her 11year-old by, Peter,
came running in from the kitchen. Pc
ter forgot all about o'clock and school
and stood staring at his father with
open mouth Peeping through the
Kitchen door stood Ane, the girl of all
work, whose Joy was almost as great
as the members of the family.
Old Peter Svendsen danced around
the dining room, like Sioux Indian on
the warpath, swinging the cablegram

Feed Cows Thefr own MIX.


An endless chain arrangement that
on its face appears to be the most
economical scheme ever devised has
been started by Prof. Err, of the Kan
sas State Agricultural College Prof.
Err takes the milk secured from cows
on the college farm, converts it Into
a powder and feeds it to the cows, max
ing what is declared to be the cheap
est OF all the COW foods.
The food invented by Prof. Err Is
made Of buttermllk. He has perfected
a system Of drying buttermilk and
then converting 1t into powder. This
dried buttermilk contains about 70 per
cent Of protein, twice as much as cot
ton seed meal contains, and can be
manufactured for one and half cents
a pound. Thus food twice as rich as
cotton seed can be manufactured at
approximately the cost of the latter.
One hundred pounds Of buttermilk
will make from nine to ten pounds Of
the finished product and as the esti-
mated waste Of buttermilk in the
creameries Of Kansas Is 100000
pounds daily, 1t IS figured that by the
adoption of this progress a saving of
100000 can be made yearly ia Kan
Sas alone.

above his head. until he at last. ex-
hausted, fell down In the armchair
In the moment when young girl,
blushing like a rose, came running and
snatched the message from his hand.
Her eyes filed with tears Of Joy, and
her heart beat like trip hammer as
she too took up the refrain: George
Is coming with the Christmas boat"
But suddenly her expression changed
and her voice almost failed her as she
said: "He is bringing Mary along"
Eyes, he is bringing Mary" Syendsen
repeated. He was still overjoyed.
"But who Is Mary2" Mrs Svendsen
asked, looking from her husband to her
niece, the little Miss Alma, who was
still staring at the cablegram.
"Well, | am sure l don't know"
Svendsen said. perhaps his wife, per-
haps his sweetheart perhaps some ne
gro girl he has bought in New York
One can't tell, but we shall find out
soon enough when he Is here"
"Yes, Of course" said Mrs. Svendsen,
"but 1t seems rather strange; he has
never written of her before"
"Of course he hasn't" old Svendsen
replied, don't you see he wants to
surprise u.s.
Every morning and evening they
looked In the papers for news of the
boat and In the morning the day be-
fore Christmas 1t was reported passing
Elslnore.
In the evening as the church bells
chimed and every one in the little town
was hurrylng to the cathedral, hymn
book In hand, George Svendsen arrived
In his native town, which he had NOT
seen for four years.
"I call that to be on tlme," cried old
Svendsen, as he clasped his big, strong
handsome boy In his arms. II suppose
you are real Yankee now, but hope
you have not forgotten how to speak
Danish"
"You bet your life. father, talh

The American Carriage Horse.


The development Of the American
carriage horse at the Colorado Agri-
cultural College and Experiment Sta
ton Is progressing very favorably, says
Prof. w. L. Carlyle Of the Colorado
Agricultural College, in the Twentieth
Century Farmer. At the present time
twenty-five brood mares are to be
found on the farm, and of these nine
teen are expected to foal this year.
Fourteen very high-class yearling colts,
by the stallion Carmon, are exemplify-
ing the success Of the work undertaken.
At the present time seven very fine
foals have come to hand this year and
the indications are that they are supe-
rior to their brothers and sisters of last
year. The station and college, In CO
operation with the government, will in
crease the brood mares to thirty five
head during the summer, and only
those Of the very highest class will be
secured.

Twenty years ago hundreds Of North
Dakota farmers bought butter, eggs
and even potatoes and cabbages at the
village stores, but they were not real
farmers, merely wheat raisers. They
depended entirely upon one crop, and
when that failed, distress followed.
James ]. Hill quickly taught them the
folly Of that kind Of farming, and to-day
the States diversified crops are equal
to those of any other Northern State.
The educational movement was not
that Mr.. Hill had any love for the
farmers then, nor has now, but he had
big railway to feed and was forced
to teach the farmer how to produce the
freight. Now the experiment stations
are carrying on the education COM
menced by Mr.. Hill and are doing 1t
better.

pipe Is four or FIVE inches from the
ground and nearly on level with the
bottom Of the stove. 1t works finely.
The cooled smoke rising from the
ground conveys no heat to the meat,
though quite little fire is kept in the
stove. The fire needs but little atten-
ton, as the stove Is kept about closed
all the time. 1t Is very satisfactory

When he came In and found his own

iron bed, the ship on the wardrobe,
and grandma's portrait on the wall
he came near crying with Joy, big fel-

And then they sat down to the rice

roast goose stuffed with apples and
prunes, and he must ask them to stop
asking so many questions that he might
get little time to enjoy his dinner, but
they did not give him time. Only
Alma sat silent, waiting for the word
which was to solve the great riddle
which tore at her very heartstrings
But the word did not come. Just as
dinner was over the door bell rang and
old Neils, the only expressman in town,
began to carry up boxes and trunks,
one after the other.
George told where everything was to
go, mixing English words into his Dan
ish every little while. He got hammer
and nail pullers and then the surprises
began to come.
He ran back and forth between his
room and the dining room, where stood
the Christmas tree, and every moment
one heard, "Oh, thank you, George!
Isn't that lovely! Oh, It's too much !!
How could you carry all that along?
Is there more YETI"
"Oh, but that is funny" Peter ex-
claimed. He had got a man in an
automobile that ran around the floor.

woMAN's 1NHUMAN1TY TO WOMAN.

Mans humanity to man was suggested to me
as subject for paragraph by gentleman who
feels that he has suffered more than his share of
the unmerciful chatting" that men give one
other in what they term "a good-natured way"
The gentleman mentioned has nose rather more
pronounced than the average and he declares
that he has suffered untold agonies through the
jests his friends are continually making about
this prominent feature.
l have always thought that the frankness of
men in speaking to each other is largely prefer
able to the hypocrtical style of the fair sex,
and that woman's inhumanity to woman is far
deeper and further reaching than mans inhu-
manity to man in this respect. Mankind retains
much larger proportion of the child in his ma
ture throughout life than woman does, and
though the truth Of children and fools cuts deep,
