Science Of the Growth of Plants
Should Be Understood by Farmer.
A r. Nhitson OF the Wisconsin sta
tion says: Directly e. Indirectly the
food Of manElad comes from the soil.
and there is. therefore. nothing more
important ih agriculture th-- tlct the
factors which determine the produc-
iveness OF the sc.l De- thoroughly un-
derstood This bulletin is written for
the purposes Cd putting before the
farmer statement OF our present
knowledge of the factors which innu-
ence the fertility of the soil and OF the
relation of these factors 90 each other.
The agricultural plants require FOR
growth a favorable temperature. light,
and a supply of material including car
bon dioXide water and certain chem
zeal elements derived from the soil.
The chief of these elements are nitro
gen, phosphorus. potassium. calcium
and magnesium. Since oxygen is used
at every point of the plant where
growth takes place. il is needed at the
tops Of the roots, and therefore soil
must be aerated. All these condi-
tions are dependent on Tie climate. on
the physical and chemical conditions
OF the soil, and on various changes
going on in the soil.

Fertilizers Paw.

No farmer should lose sight of the
fact that all fertilizers have great
value. and not a pound of fertilizer
should be allowed TO go 70 waste. On
general principles a farmer should be
always working into his soil the mate
rails that will make plant food. An
abundance Of plant food is required in
the soil, if farming is to be carried on
probably. 1t should be remembered
that every particle Of vegetable mat
ter makes fertility when il decays, and
should be worked into the soil. The
non-appreciation Of this fact leads to
the loss of large quantities Of barn
yard manure. which is allowed to 20
to waste in various wayS.

P. Sargent will, it is said, be an

Mr.. Powderly was for years at the
head Of the knights of Labor and is

of the immigration Office. He was
commissioner of immigration until sue

Mr.. Powderly was general master

from 1879 to 1898 and from 1873 to
1884 was mayor of Scranton, Pa, elect

in Carbondale, Pa, in 1849, and be-

a group of heavy ice foes surrounding
the ship, shifting the supplies, if neces-
sary, by means of windlasses, motors

crew can manage the three cargoes.
Had the Jeanette expedition adopt
ed this plan it would have won.
In my support Rear Admiral Mel
vile stated to me that a small house
erected on the ice at the beginning of
the drift Of the jeanette having been
blown away before it had been fas-
tened down, was found two years later
less than two miles from the ship,
thus proving that the ship and ice
proceed just as a balloon moves with
the atmosphere in which it floats.

OF THE AUTO
BUILDER OF FIRST STEAM CAR
RAGE IN AMERICA.
oliver Evans Worked on Idea for
Steam Propulsion in Boston as
Early as 177s-shop Of In
ventor Still Standing.

Boston.-A quaint building on ST.
James street, above Second, now num-
bered 216, is reputed to be the shop
where Oliver Evans worked in the
year 1896. Evans was one OF the early
inventors of which this country has
furnished so many, and although he is
principally recalled as the inventor Of
the first steam carriage" or what we
would now term an automobile, when
he had his shop in the low-roofed
building In Lowndes' or Elmslie's al
ley, the little lane now named st.
James street, he was patronized as the
man who could make mills which
saved expense by giving 20 pounds
more -four to the barrel than any
other
Although Evans was not a native of
this city, he was a descendant of the
first Episcopal minister of Philadel-
phia, Evan Evans. The latter died in
the year 1928. Oliver was born in
Newport, Del, in 1855, and his parents
were in humble circumstances. Early
he developed genius for invention.
and while he was still a very young
man he designed a non-condensing en-
gine, in which power was derived
from the tension Of high-pressure
steam. This invention has been the
foundation Of a long race Of steamboat
and locomotive engines. The brothers
of Oliver we're millers. and the young
man soon Joined them in their busi-
ness. While engaged with his brothers
he made many inventions and in 1890
he applied for a patent for the appli-
cation Of the steam engine for driving

slImnens or Plumpness.

In these days. when It is considered
essential for women to be tall and
slender-though, poor things. they can
not always compass it-it should
please them to know how an ancient
Spartan regarded corpulence. AS
much attention was paid to rearing
men in Sparta as the cattle dealers in
modern countries pay to the breeding
OF cattle, and they took charge Of
frmness and looseness Of mems flesh
and regulated the degree Of fatness to
which II was lawful in a free state to
extend his body. Mr.. Bruce In Classic
and Historic Portraits" says those
who dared to grow too fat or too soft
for military exercise and the service
OF Sparta were soundly whipped.
Corpulence was a crime. What was
good for the spartans would be good
for the New York women. whom a
brilliant Frenchman has been writing
about rather too saucily. He says
they are much too fat, too well nour-
ished, and would be all the better for
less pamperlng. Overeating and ele-
yators. he thinks, are responsible for
those stout ladies who are forever
deploring their increasing bulk. AS
this writer does not mention our Bos-
ton fair ones, remarks the Boston Her
aid, it is presumed he either did not
come here or he has found them as
buxom. with their contours as "lost"
to sight as those in New York Any
way, he shows shocking taste. But it
is quite true that self-indulgence tends
to ayoirdupois. Only walk upstairs
and eschew sweets. and the ancient
Spartan won't be in it for slimness.

gion of Honor that parliamentary
commission has been appointed to in
vestigate the affairs of the order, with
view to restoring membership in it
to the original purpose of recogni-

number so; there are 200 grand Off

knights or chevaliers without limit. 1t
is the multiplication of chevaliers
which has been going on too rapidly

think that the cross should be more
