Farming is not what il was twenty
years ago from revenue standpoint
Corn and cotton were the main prod
ucts from which the farmer drew his
income. and that. too. only once year.
Now the process has changed up. In
stead of the one crop. cotton, farmers
have invoked a multiplicity Of crops.
and not only grow corn and cotton for
revenue. but have supplemented pota-
toes. both Irish and sweet peaches and
pears onions. melons. berries. peanuts
and ribbon cane. all of which bring
money at all seasons Of the year. and
there il continued market for what
he has to sell.-Sulphur Springs Tex

Hired Man and The Horse.

Every man who works on farm
ought TO know how to care for horses
BY care" il is not meant that he
should know just enough to feed a
horse. but he must know how TO take
care OF mare in foal, how to break a
colt and how to feed ii to the best ad-
vantage. He should know all about
horses feet and something about shoe
ing. too. Many a man has dropped
into a fine and permanent job because
he knew these things. Horses are the
most valuable animals on the farm, of
course. and the man who can take the
best care OF them is the most valuable
help.

Koyalevsky's committee organized to
celebrate the eighueth birthday Of
Count Leo Tolstoy approached the count
with the question whether he would
like steps TO be taken to annul the de-
cree OF recommendation issued by the

The committee received q reply from
Countess Sophia Tolstoy saying that
the count did not recognize any ex-
communication, and had long agO for

The anniversary celeb. alton will take

TAKES PICTURES
OF THE INVISIBLE

LONDON, March Frederick How
enden, vice pesident OF the London In
stitution and a member Of many
learned societies, is preparing four lee
lures. entitled "a STUDY of the Princi-
pies Of Nature" in which he divulgs )
some startling scientific discoveries, the
truth Of which he is prepared 10 prove
by experiment.
Mr.. Hovenden declares first that cleo
tricity heat, and ether are one and the
same fluid, and If Illuminated can lie
made visible to the naked eye.
His second startling statement Is that
he can take moving pictures OF the in
visible.
His theory is that every human being
exhales ether or electricity at the finger
tips, and that moving pictures may be
taken OF this process.
This last assertion, Prof. Hovanden
claims TO have proved IL the following
way:
A square glass box is filled with cigar
cite smoke. mixed with ordinary air.
The experimental thrusts a Tinger
through a hole IN the bottom Of the
glass box. and turns on a powerful arc
lamp. The ether or electricity may i'm
mediately be seen issuing from the
finger tips and OF this photographs may
be taken. The electricity issues from
minute holes on the too OF the minute
finger-ridges which are used for MAX
ing Impressions in the police system Of
Identification.
Prof. Hovenden adds that the fluid
seen issuing from the finger tips is cleo
tricity, proved beyond dispute by the
galYanometer

himself bandaged his eyes and opened
his mouth. ThereupOn, Fraulein Boyer

head. She then fed, leaving behind her
the revolver so that the police might
be led to the conclusion that the case

LONDON, March Mime. Tetraz-
ztni's impressions Of America are con-
veyed in an interesting letter she has
written to a friend in London.
"All things considered" writes the
prima donna, Il am delighted with
the New York public. It is odious to
compare them with the English, but
have my own views on the matter,
and these I intend to keep private.
They have been very good to me
here. I came here with a reputation.
and naturally I found It difficult to
justify 1t. Il is the same with every
body. When I make my first bow 10
the audience each night 1 am always
greeted with tremendous applause. and
you have no idea what a beneficial
effect this has on one.
Il have an idea that the majority Of
people in New York are Europeans by
BIRTH but it does not take them long
to cultivate a good American accent,
and they all rapidly develop into Amer
icans-even TO their clothes. The people
are devoted TO good singers"
The singer then refers to the curious
statement made by some Of the news
paprs that she can only sing when
under the hypnotic influence Of her
manager, SignOr G, Bozelli-like a sec
ond Trilby.
"NO serious and intelligent person
would believe such a thing" she writes.
but in all seriousness it has been said
that I can only sing when hypnotized-
magnetized! Is 1t not ridiculous? Such
statements really cannot be the result
of anything but a grotesQue magma
ton"

SCIENTIST LOSES
HIS ARM IN ZEAL
FOR E-RAY WORK
Excruciating Pain Caused
By Warts Which Coy
cred His Hands.
Blood Poison at Last
Follows Drying Up of
Glands.

LONDON, March AS a result Of
Successive devotion To his profession and
zeal, Dr. J. Hall-EdwarCis a specialist,
of Birmingham. has had his arm am
putated. DR.. HaII-Edwards was Eng
lands first specialist in x-ray opera
tions. and x-ray dermatitis is the dis
ease from which he is suffering.
Hall-Edwards became well known
through taking a Photograph of the first
operations in which Roentgen rays were
used. He specialiZed in the rays oper-
ated with them in South Africa during
the Beer war, and after his return TO
England began to experiment In their
direct curative effect. The mysterious
Light cured other people. But continued
exposure Of his arms and hands TO It's
effects proved baneful to DR.. Edwards.
Tortured Continually.
He began to suffer from what he de-
scribed as 'ever-present excruciating
pain" In the hands. X-ray dermGtitis
continued its course. Warts began TO
appear on his fingers. Gradually they
spread and caused continuous sores. He
lost his sleep and spent his nights wan
dering about his house in dumb torture.
The pain he described as OF neuralgia
character, varied with stabs and jumps
of such severity as to make him cry
out.
At one time he had on the back of
each hand fifty or sixty of these agon-
izing warts. No internal medicine had
the least alleviaung effect. The only
remedy was TO soften the warts by
means OF a lead lotion and opium poul-
tiee, and scrape them of with knife
This painful operation enabled him &c
use his hands and continue his expert
msnts.
Blood Poison Developed.
DR.. HaIl-EdwRrds believes that x-ray
dermatitis is caused by the action OF the
rays on the cutaneous nerves and The
destruction Of the glands which supply
the natural oil to the skin. The disease
begins on the hands, but spreads up
the arms. In DIT. Edwards case. both
arms were affected. After bearing ter
rible torture for years. DR.. Edwards
was menaced with a worse evil, owing
70 the setting in OF notwithstanding in
the left arm. Faced with death, the
scientist consented TO amDutation, and
the arm was taken of at the elbow. The
right arm Is now menaced.
Several English and Continental doc
tors have suffered from x-ray derma-
don operator recently had three fingers
amputated as the result OF bloodpoison-
ing arising from the disease.

HUGHES

The Republican party In she great
and controlling State OF New York
Is In a great quandary about the
denomination of Governor Hughes.
The machine don't want him, neither
does that faction OF the party repre-
sented by the race track and other
gamblers; but the upstate Repubh-
cans and the large Independents vote
demand that he again be nominated
for Governor, and il is shat vote that
counts, for the large cities of New
York are Democratic and the vote in
the upper counties is what makes
New York Republican. And with the
unsettled condition OF political mat
tiers in the middle West and same on
she Pacific Coast, It is all important
that in this campaign the G. o. p.
shall carry the Empire State. IN
some campaigns the Republican
party can afford to lose New York,
but not in this one. The end will be
that Hughes will be nominated. for
the leaders know too well they can't
aford not to heed the demand from
the rural section OF the party.
Hughes is no politician; he is rather
what is known as a reformer. He
does not always obey the bosses; he
viii not wear the collar, and frequent
ly kicks in the traces. He il known
TO be very high in his ideals and very
pure in his private life and political
record He can draw a very large
vote from the really independent
voting class, and when the whips be-
gin TO crack and Roosevelt brandishes
his stick the sore-heads will fall into
line for Hughes. They can't do any
thing else.
