The new wing carries the line Of the
corner tower on the west nearly city
block northwest, thus giving the first
suggestion of the appearance Of the
west front as it will ultimately ap
pear. The great building will some
day occupy the entire space facing
Central park, measuring three city
blocks in length and one avenue block
in width. A great central tower will
ultimately rise high above the present
roof line.
Despite the apparently endless cor
ridors of the present structure the
museum is badly cramped for room
There are tons of valuable material

popular as well as scientific interest, Is

will make a very strong popular APP
peal and will amply justify the space
devoted to It.
The second wing, which Is available
for exhibition purposes this year, leads
from the central power house directly
westward. While smaller than the
south wing on the street side, It Is
nevertheless an important addition to
the museum. This wing will be given
over to various fish exhibits. 1t will
soon be thrown open to the public.
These wings together make the most

some six years.

Metropolitan museum, the new wing
stands practically complete so far as
its outer appearance Is concerned
The brown stone used in it's construc.

tone than in the older parts of the
building, but few years of exposure
will correct this.
The new addition to the Brooklyn
Institute museum has already doubled
the capacity of the building. The
work here has been completed some
months in advance of the similar add
tons to the other city museums. The
completion Of this wing has done more

building than have the additions Il

American Agriculture.

Although agriculture in America Is
young compared with some Of the Euro
pean and Asiatic countries, it has been
developed to such an extent that the
older countries look to us for ideas and
methods to help them solve the farm
problems they have to meet. Our sci
entists and Investigators are among the
foremost In the world and as an agri-
cultural nation we need stand aside for
none. To be sure, agriculture owes
many of its greatest scientific discov-
cries to English, German and French
eXperimenters, but in aggressiveness
and practical development of ideas
America is one of the leaders.
Other nations are sending their sci
entists to America to study how we do
things here. Our country presents most
of the agricultural problems to be met
with in the countries of the old world
and we are finding out how to solve
them, and the old world wants to know
how we do it. A Japanese expert is
now In the United States to investigate
our methods Of improving worn-out
soils He says: "We have in Formosa
over 100000 acres under cultivation
and we want to find out how the United
States goes about it to improve the con-
dition Of its land, so we can improve
our country" This is but one instance
of where we are sending our ideas
abroad
We have every reason to be proud Of
our agricultural advancement, much of
which Is due to our State experiment

riculture.-Goodall's Farmer.

Burn Dead Animals.

In the attempt to stamp out hog
cholera and other contagious diseases
among live stock the matter of burn
Ing all dead animals is one Of consid-
cradle Importance. Outbreaks Of dis
ease have frequently been traced to the
careless disposal of the carcass Of an
infected animal. Burning is much more
effective than burying, as the germs Of
some diseases, as anthrax, for example,
retain their virility for considerable
length Of time. Then in burying car
cases, unless they are placed very deep
In the ground, there Is always more or
less danger Of their being rooted or dug

and hogs will root them out.

for the mistakes of others was learned
by certain woman from her own ex-

continent for a three months visit.
On the day of her departure she went
to the safety deposit vault where she
kept her valuables, and said to the
manager that she wanted to take her
box, with its contents, to her lawyers
office for an hour. Could he arrange
that for her? The manager assented,
and wrapped the box in a newspaper,
that it might make an inconspicuous
bundle.
The day passed and the woman did
not return. The next morning, inquiry
revealed the fact that she had gone on
her journey The manager was curious
enough to ask her lawyer if he knew
anything about the box.
"She left here intending to take it
directly to you," said the lawyer.
That was enough to justify a tele-
gram, as soon as the woman had reach
