HYPNOTIC SUGGESTION.
II May Be Given by Telephone or Eve
BY Mail.


"Of course, there is no reason t.
deny that a person may fall into the
hypnotic state while the hypnotizer
is in another place. The only condi-
ton is that he must have been hyp-
Noticed by him before and that his own
imagination must have been captured
by the thought of the absent hypnotic
er. I myself have repeatedly hypnntized
by telephone or even by mail. For in
stance, treated morphinist who at
first came daily to my laboratory to
be hypnotized; later it was sufficient
to tell him over the telephone: Take
out your WATCH in two minutes you
will fall asleep or to write to him:
AS soon as you have read this note
you will be in the hypnotic state
thus had the malicious influence even
at distance, but 1t was not by will
power; it was by the power of his
own imagination; at the time when he
read my note in his suburb, and fell
asleep, l was not thinking of him at
all. As a matter of course, such in
fluence by correspondence would have
been impossible had not repeated hyp-
notization in personal contact proceed
ed.
Even that may not be necessary II
not complete hypnotization but only
suggestive influence Is in question. A
few days ago l received letter from
a southern lady whom do not know,
whose son, a morphinist, l have never
seen. She writes: My son has been
impressed with the belief that your
trs atment is all he needs to be cured.
In dream he said. you stood before
him, with the finger tips of your hands
trembling, and said: 4 have the power
to influence your will He woke, re-
peating, you have the power to con-
troll my will" That morning he
seemed to forget to take the morphine
at the regular time, and soon went
down to the beach without his NOR
phine outfit in his pocket-an unusual
thing and so forth. He himself was
convinced that my will power was
working on him, while did not even
know him."-Prof. Munste-berg in Mo

LARGE AND SMALL COWS.

According to Prof Hacker. of Min
nesota, most farmers overestimate the
value Of large cows and large milk
ers, and as rule underestimate the
value Of a small COW giving a light
flow of milk rich In butter fat. In
entering the dairy barn of the Min
nesota State farm there are in the
first row two cows standing side by
side. One weighs 1900 and the 9TH
er S75 pounds. Invariably when Wis
itors enter, favorable comments are
made on the fine large COW with the
big udder, and on only one occasion
has the small COW been pointed out
as an ideal dairy animal, and that
was by a prominent milk producer
from New England. The large COW
is the deepest mixer in the herd.
while the small COW never gives a
large mess, even when fresh. The
large cow invariably decreases rapid
ly in her flow, while the small one
Is persistent mixer, generally Civ.
ing as much in the spring as when
she went into winter quarters. The
large COW, during the past three
years, has averaged 295 pounds of
butter per year, while the small one
gave 341 pounds.

FORAGE AS A MONEY CROP.

fOhAGE AS A MONEY CROP.
In addition to providing early for.
age for the work stock to take the
place Of the damaged stun now be-
ing SO generally used, mentioned in
the Progressive Farmer, this is also
the time to start making forage for
next winter and spring. With all
sorts OF long forage bringing extreme.
ly high prices at all times, much
might be said In favor of growing
forage crops to sell for profit There
Is no better money crop in the south
today, not even excepting cotton and
tobacco; but certainly where large
yields and great variety of forage
crops can be produced it seems, and
Is ridiculous, that our cattle and
horses should suffer fer lack of feed,
or that We should buy hay at high
prices. Even cottonseed bulls have
become so high in price in most Sec
lions that no farmer can afford to
buy them, because for the six to
eight dollars he has to pay ton for
them, he can produce two tons of a
better feed.
II we can by any possible means
arouse the farmers in our territory to
the point of providing the hay or long
forage used, both In the cities and
on the farms, the service would be
invaluable. Not only would the grow
ing Of 1t yield profit. but the keep
ing of hundreds of thousands of dol.
lars In this section instead of sending
1t to the northwest would be of un-
told value in building up our agri-
culture.
How can we secure the forage need
edf First. cut and utilize the entire
corn plant; second, plant few acres
OF corn on rich land near the barn
and build a silo and put this corn
into it; third. sow sorghum, peas, so
ia beans. millet and other plants,
and make hay of them.
Shredded corn slower Is as good as
cottonseed bulls; two tons Of silage.
succulent and heavy though it is, are
equal to one ton of the best grass
hay. and our native grasses, sorghum.
cowpeas. millet, ETC.. will make hay
that will sell for from $40 to SIS
per ton, and be equal to that for
which we now pay $50

FARM NOTES.

II supply of good sharp grit and
pure charcoal is constantly within
reach of the fowls, the many ailments
that come from Indigestion may be
avoided.
Always keep grit and oyster shells
before your fowls whether on free
range or in confinement. The manu-
featured grit is far superior to such
gravel as they can pick up.
1t is time to put eggs In the incu-
bator for broilers. BY the time the
chicks are eight to twelve weeks old
there will be a lively demand for
them at good prices.
Watch the little things and the
big things will take care Of them
selves.
An exclusive diet OF corn will pre-
vent hens from laying. How would
you like to live on corn bread alone?
A good incubator. properly man
aged, is great money-maker on the
farm. That has been proven time
and again. Why not try It yourself?
Don't throw money away by feed
ing lot of culls and drones. Also
remember that old hens do not lay

Eggs should always be packed with
