he will only make up his mind TO it,
go in to win, stay by his job, and use
his head. Using his head is the i'm
portant thing. He must cut down his
expenses--that is, the unnecessary
ones. Many times he-will be gamer
by increasing his expenses. He will
be the gamer when he increases his
expenses to get better blood in his
herds of sheep or hogs, or to get a
start in either of these lines. He will
be the gamer when he spends money
for better seeds. He will be ahead
when he spends money to get imple-
ments that will work his land better
or moro quickly. Better implements
will enable him to raise better crops,
or to raise crops equally as good as
present ones at less expense. That IS
making money right-saving it, keep
ing it at home, dropping it into his
own pocket.-Progressive Farmer.

TENNESSEE AND THE GULF.

Senator Bob Taylor says the link
ing together Of the Tennessee and the
Warrior by a canal "would add i'm
measurably to the wealth and indus
trial importance of both Tennessee
and Alabama" and the hope in this
district is that east Tennessee will
line up solid behind her eloquent and
popular senator. IF Alabama and
east Tennessee pull together in this
matter the government can readily be
induced to build canal 80 miles
long connecting the two improved riv-
ers, the Warrior and tine Tennessee.
Unlike the project cf a canal 300
miles long to the Ocmulgee across the
red hills Of Georgia, the Alabama
Tennessee plan calls for a canal but
90 miles long, to cost not exceeding
$5,0O0,000. The government cannot
afford to let the two rivers 90 dis
connected, for a short canal would
benefit a vast inland district, dis

"DO TT NOW"

These things that help to bring
more prosperity to home cost some-
thing. If the farmer does not now,
while he has more ready cash than at
most seasons, plan to possess himself
of these proft-making things, after
while he may say, 81 am little hard
up now, and can't buy that" The
result would be, that he would delay
one more year before buying, would
lose good part of one years profit,
just because he does not now, while
he has ready money, lay his plans for
spending certain part of that ready
money for these proft-making things.

HEAD-WORK IS THE IMPOR-
TANT THING.

Granting that a reasonable amount
of pleasure for himself and his fam
lily should be the ultimate aim of every
farmer, it is good business for him
to figure out how he can use his pres
ent ready cash to make good times
at his house constant, so that luxu-
ries and minor pleasures will be the
rule in future years. Overlooking
this very point keeps many farmers
nose. against the grindstone year aft
or year. To secure these luxuries, it
is necessary that he make mis- farm
ing so successful that after a while
he will have ready cash all the time.
Any intelligent, healthy farmer can
do this, barring unusual handicaps, if

BoARDERs AND BOOMERS.

The last two national censuses
show that a decreasing number Of
Americans-not POLES, but Ameri-
cans-live in their own or any one
else's home. Americans, in short,
are becoming roomers. Boarding
houses are being supplanted by room
ing houses. This change is taking
place in all the cities in the country.
In Boston, for example, there were in
1885 two roomers to three boarders,
but in 1895 there were five roomers
to every boarder, and the changes
since 1895 have driven the boarding
house out altogether.
This simply means that the men
who have no homes Of their own are
eating at restaurants and they have
no home life at all. The boarding
house may not be ideal in that re-
spect, but it certainly is far better as
rule than the restaurant and a room
in a rooming house Or on the top
floors of business building or wher-
ever else shelter can be secured.
The effects Of the rooming house
are felt to limited extent in this
city, and doubtless the rooming houses
will be increased as the years go on.
The number of homeloving people is
not decreasing, but the number that
can afford to have even the domestic
atmosphere which is found in a good
boarding house, is constantly growing
less. The Dingley tariff exactions
and wildcat finance and hundred
other things have advanced the cost
of living until many man is COM
PEELED to seek the rooming houses no
matter how much he may desire hui
man companionshop. Home life cam
not be abolished without incurring eff
fects that will prove hurtful. and the
subject deserves thoughtful treat
ment and study. The problem Of the
rooming house lodger is pretty new,
but it promises to become pretty gen.
eral in all the cities of the land

A SIMPLE DISCOVERY.

A Pennsylvania farmer has discov-
cred that the sun spots have a pro-
nounced effect on the wheat crop.
He has evidently been studying some
Of the farmers bulletins, discovering
the meaning Of some Of the huge
words used therein. He explains his
theory in the following simple man-
ner:
''Electricity is an acriform existing
either as mixture of carbureted hy-
drogen and defiant aeriform or as
bi-carbureted hydrogen. It is Of
equal density, pressure and tempera-
ture of the atmosphere. The solar
metallurgical activities require large
masses of electrical aerifolm fire.
quently and absorb the same In enor-
nous quantities from large areas IN
the suns atmosphere. The sun is
the fountain Of all aeriforrn and when
that body is free from the spots it
imparts aeriform unlimitedly to the
earth. This aeriform is absolutely es-
sential to the formation and develop
ment Of grain. When spots appear
on the sun, the formation, imparta-
ton and transportation of the aeri-
form from the solar bcdy to the earth
is retarded and hence there is no
formation cf grain.
Now isn't that plain? Not being
satisfied with the above explana-
ton, he adds this: "Space robbed
Of electrical gas, becomes opaque,
therefore the seeming blackness Of
the sun spots. Z" He thinks that the
same phenomena occar in the case OF
the earth, when after vegetation has
de-electrifed the earth, thereby with
drawing electrical gas, dark days. and
darkness before thunderstorms, as
we'll as lightning storms, are pro-
duced.
Could anything be more simple ?
The farmers are under obligations to
this gentleman for this wonderfully
simple discovery. Why was this SIM
pie theory not discovered sooner?-

FOREST RESERVE.

That the condition Of the timber
supply of the United States has be-
come a source Of anxiety to repre-
sentative lumber men of the country
was emphasized in practical talks on
the subject at the annual session Of
the National Lumber Manufacturers
Association held at the jamestown
Exposition.
A striking feature Of the proceed
ings was that at this meeting Of man
nfacturcrs of lumber, representing
body Of men whose annaul produc-
ton aggregates IA TO "A billion board
feet Of saw timber yearly cut in the
United States, close attention was
given to the question of The future
supply of timber. One of the strong
est papers reviewed the whole situa-
tion carefully and showed the impor-
tance Of preserving forest resources
by conservative numbering or apply
ing the principles of forestry. The
following resolutions were adopted,
endorsing heartily the policy Of the
federal government in catering to
national forests throughout the coun-
try, and pledging the support of the
association to the movement gener-
ally.
Resolved, That the National Lum-
ber Manufacturers Association in
convention assembled, hereby voices
its hearty approval of the policy of
our federal government in establish
ing large forest reservations in va
rious sections of our land, and would
urge Congress to give liberal consid-
Grafton to such policy.
Whereas, in view Of our rapidly de-
creasing forest resources it is CT the
greatest Importance that an accurate
determination be made Of the kind
and quantity of standing timber in
the United States in order to secure
a sound basis for plans for forest
management and utilization.
Resolved, That we respectfully re,
quest the Forest Service and Bureau
Of Census to undertake this work at
earliest convenience, and that we
hereby pledge our heartiest co-opera-
ton to all efforts of the government
to secure information concerning any
of the interests of the lumber indus
try.

significant Of the general attitude of
the industry directly affected by the

Route of Ride Changed.

The publication of the fact that the
cavalcade of officers was to start on the
ride October S up 10Th street, one of Wash
ingtCns broadest and most aristocratic
tho. oughfares, and on to Silver Spring
through the national park has had the
effect to cause a radical change in the line
of ride. So much attention has been drawn
TO this subject that it is feared by the
officers in charge of the movement that
every pickaninny and idler in Washington
would station himself along the line OF
march and make remarks and utter calls
and cries that would be very dIScOmttiHg
to the unfortunate officers who are astride
of their horses for the first time in many
wears. Therefore, the word has gone forth
that the ride snail begin at Fort Myer, and
the route viii be over some of the notorious
roads in Virginia to be selected by Col.
Hatfield the commandment of the post, Who
will exert himself to prevent any knowl-
edge of the route becoming known i'll ad-
vance.
Gen. Duvall, assistant chief of staff, who
will head the riding party, has decided that
the sixty officers named in the list, even
allowing for some omissions, will make
TOO large q part for one expedition, 1t
will be divided and two trips will be made,
probably on the Sth and 10th of October.
Any officer may use his own horse in these
rides, but it must not be borrowed
hired animal, which might take fright from
the jngling saber beating upon his TANKS.
So if the office does not possess a horse
he must ride one belonging to the Fort
Myer troopers.

The millinery department was in-
