A DIVORCE
Ferdinand Earle, Artist, Announces
Marital Plan Which Includes Mar
riage to Young Woman Who
Shares His Views

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, Sept. s.-A remarkable
story of change In the marital reia-
lions Of Ferdinand p Earle, an artist,
and son of the late General Ferolnano
p Earle. the hotel man, is pubIlsned
TODAY apparently on the authority OF
Mr. Earle himself.
The ARRANGEMENT which Mr.. Earle says
has been decided upon includes the re-
turn to France of his wife, where IL is
planned she is to secure divorce, anu
this accomplished, the wedding is to oc-
cur of Mr.. Earle and young woman,
whose name is withheld, but who already
is living with her brother in Mr.. Earles
country home gear Monroe, orange
county, New York.
A young son is to accompany the wire
to France. The arrangement. strange to
say, is apparently acquiesceo IN oS an
the persons involved.
Earle. in a lengthy published interview,
says that ne is acting on his own con-
victions.
He admits that his wife, a French
woman whom he married ten years ago,
was very dear to him, but says that
eventually trouble arose between them
which he cannot explain. A few months
ago. while travelling in Europe, he met
the young woman he intends to make
his wife. Like himself, he says she was
a Socialist, and held the same views ne
did. as to the happiness of welded life.
They became attached and realized that
their marriage had been foreordained be-
fore their births.
Then the divorce was arranged. Earle
insisted on calling in his wife, a dainty
little woman, slim and pale, who con-
f1rned this story.

Much OF the beef for local consumption

He said, as those who heard the state
ment laughed, IT am speaking in all
seriousness, though, of course, the sub
dividing of ranches into farm lands may
not be the direct cause of the present
boost Of prices.
LAS matter OF fact it is hard to tell
what is responsible, for we do not get
very much meat from the big packing
companies in the east. My idea is that
the cattle received these days is in ex-
cellent shape, and of course commands
more on the market

The Best Soils.

: Soils made up of nearly equal pro-
portion of clay, or fine silt and sand,
and sand are the best. They allow the
rain and water to slowly go downward,
and they have many pores, which carry
the water downward with power
greater than the force Of grayltatlon.
These soils do not allow the water to
lpercolate to so great depth that 1t
can neither be reached by the roots OF
field crops, which go downward to
depth of from three to seven feet, nor
rise to the roots by the same capil-
Harry power which helped carry it down
and held it from going further. These
soils are usually in good condition
VERY soon after a wet period, because
they can absorb great deal of mois-
lture and carry it down so that the
Surface it dry enough for tillage. Such
soils are also excellent in dry weather,
because they have a large supply OF
water stored up which can be used by
the plant when needed.-Weekly Wit

Riches in Corn Stalks.

Prof. Wiley, of the Department OF
Agriculture, says that inasmuch as
every 100 pounds of corn stalks will
yield six and half pounds of abso-
lutte alcohol it is obvious that the ig-
norant agriculturist has been allowing
an enormous amount of wealth to 60
Ito waste.
i Say that one acre will yield from ten
ito twelve tons of grain stalks, or about
t20, 900 pounds, and you have a guam
tity of raw material that woll produce
1300 pounds Of absolute alcohol, or PIG
hxallons. Alcohol at the present time is
worth 40 cents g gallon.

Farm Notes.

Sheep are very efficient aids in max
ing clean pastures by keeping down
many kinds of weeds.
Cockerels with spurs are classed as
old fowls in market. Market them
before the spurs make much growth.
Young trees should not be trimmed
too literally, as too much foliage tax
en- from the tree weakens its feeding
power.
There is no objection to selling No.
2 fruit if it is so marked. But to sell
No 2 fruit as No. l is where the
trouble is.
Whenever root grating is used in
the winter the plants should not be set
out in the spring unless the gratis have
grown together.
Every poultryman should lay In
supply af alfalfa aud clover for his
fowls during the winter. Green feed
Is as essential as grain.
Corn is low in price some years IN
certain localities. II is possible that
next season there may be but half
crop, hut the excess over that required
for consumption may bring good prices
Farmers who have too much grain on
hand, with prices ruling low, should
endeavor to increase the number OF
animals on the farm il order to convert
the corn into something more sala5ie.

Hints on LaWn-SoWino.

Get the very best grade of lawn mix
ture for seeding, and use it literally.
I believe in thick sowing. This way
you are not obliged to wait year for
q geod sward. Sow the seed on very
still day, if you want an even "catch."
I would advise sowing from one side,
and then cross-sowiag. 1t is a good
plan to SOW just before rain, If pos
sible, as this will imbed the seed in
the soil and prevent it from being
blown away. If the season is a dry one
it is well to roll or beat down the soil
after sowing to make it compact
enough to retain moisture until germ

What Is a Good Cow?

A good cow is one, irrespective of
breed, that pays her owner net profit.
Fhe cow that produces a profit can
not always be distinguished from one
that does not, by external appearance.
Signs of good COWS many times fail.
Looks, in a cow, at least, are some
times deceiying. The value of a cow
is not told simply by the amount of
milk she gives for given period or
the richness of that milk. We must
know the cost of keeping as well as the
production Of the cow to determine her

AUSTRALIANS MEAT EATERS.
Consume 262 Pounds Per Capita Ac-
cordinn % Latest Report.

That the United States is one Of
the greatest eating countries OF
the wo,ld is shown by statistics pre-
sented by the Bureau Of Animal In
dustry. 1t is the fashion to deprecate
the fact that Americans eat too much
meat. However, the people Of AUS
tralia are entitled to a greater degree
OF criticism than Americans in this
matter. They not only consume much
more meat per capita than Americans,
but lead the world in meat eating.
A comparative tabu!atioa has been
prepared showing that in 1900 the an
nual per capita consumption OF meat IN
pounds in Australia was, 262, in the
United States 179, in the United King
dom 122, in Germany SO, in France so,
Sweden and Norway 81, Denmark 76,
and Belgium 70. The country TOR
which stands lowest in the matter OF
meat eating is Italy. The latest sta
tistics given regarding that country
are for 1895. The consumption per
capita then was but 27 pounds and
ten years earlier in Italy was as low as
IS pounds.
The causes for the United States
ranking high in the score OF meat
consuming nations are given as: the
1nesence in the country of enormous
herds Of animals intended for food;
the vastness Of the highly developed
industries which handle and market
these animals; the comparative cheap
ness Of meat-food products, and the
increasingly prosperous conditions OF
all classes Of the American people.
The reasons for the remarkable con-
sumption of meat in Australia are SAID
to be the proportionately large num-
Der of animals in that country as COM
pared with it's sparse population, and
the consequent abundance and cheap
ness of meat as an article Of diet.
The figures here given do not incluoe
poultry, game, rabbits, fish and the
like.-New York Globe-Herald.
