China Paints Itself Red.

The Chinese paint the whole country
red, figuratIvely speaking, on New
Year in more senses than one. Red is
the color with them which denotes
good luck and prosperity. and all the
New Year cards and invitations are on
paper OF that color. Every child gets
its New Year present wrapped IN red
paper, and red inscriptions are pasted
over the doors of the houses. These
Inscriptions bear characters prayinr
for good fortune, wealth and hnppi-
ness. and they are posted on each side
Of the outer doors Of the houses. New
pictures of Chinese. generals are put
on the front doors; the houses are
secured and made clean. Among other
things, eggs nre dyed red aud are OF
fered to the gods. Dinner parties are
got up in bright vermillon The red
used is that which you find arou,sd our
firecrackcrs, and. as for them. tse Chi.
nese spend more in firecrackers On
New Year than we do ON the Fourth Of
July.-Philadelphia Press.

The WassxiI Bowl.

The wassail bowl has been regarded
as the property of Christmas, but 1t Is
really New Year custom. 1t was the
custom Of our ancestors to drink the
old year out and the New Year In in a
bowl OF liquor, which came to be called
the wassail bowl from the exclamation
"Waes hael!" c'Be in healthvD Of ev-
cry topper as he lifted 1t to his lips.
The bowl was passed round from guest
to guest, all drinking from 1t In token
Of the good will and happiness with
which the New Year opened. From
the wassail bowl came the glowing
cup" which still figures ut the ban.

PROXY FARMING.

One OF the greatest curses OF present
day American agriculture is the all too
prevalent system OF proxy farming, or
absentee lnndlordism. Go into any Sec
ton one will and the most rundown
places are almost without exception
those owned by men who live In town
and have turned the virtual manage
ment OF the farm over TO a cash or
share renter, who In all too many
cases. being on short lease. thinks he
does best for himself by skinning the
land to the limit Very likely the own
er came into possession Of the property
when land was got for n song or In
hcrited Il from some thrifty parent.
and 1t is natural enough II be receives
o fair interest return on what he con-
siders is invested that he should not
be as alert along the line Of seeing that
its fertility is kept in repair as he
ought TO be. Best results are obtained
IN the farm management when the
owner works It himself II he has any
business head at all Next best is the
leasing OF the farm to a careful man
on a long time lease, so that both ten.
ant and landlord may share Jointly In

eErrER TILLAcE DID IT.

What can be accomplished by the
mere fact of thorough cultivation of
the soil has been brought to the writ
er's attention very foreibly during the
past few weeks. A fifty or sixty acre
field belonging to a farm which has
been share rented for the past twenty
years and hence gradually robbed OF
its fertility-for 1t has not been manur-
ed or replenished with clover-was
given deep blowing and this year
planted to corn. Prior to this year the
field had been sort of an agricultural
byword little being expected OF II and
as little being realized frasi IL. This
season, however, different tactics were
followed. The field wiss put In good
tilth as a seed bed. good seed planted
and a good stand of corn secured
During the growing season 1t was cul-
t1vnted thoroughly Eve times. The
result was an eye opener. Not only
did this handling result In a good
growth Of stalks which we're well ear
ed, but so mellow was the surface
kept that the crop was able TO with
stand protracted dry weather In much
better shape than richer and heavier
land which was not so well titled, not
withstanding II had a coarse gravel
subsol. A lot of farmers who have
driven past this field have been won.
dering what magic was used on It 1t
was just matter OF cultivation OF the
soil which unlocked its possibilities, in
spite Of the fact that its fertility was
badly depleted. The same cultivation,
coupled with manure and clover, would
accomplish even better results. These
three things ought to be tried on thou
sands Of farms through the cotton,
corn and small grain belts.

NEEDED NEGOTIATION.

An Illinois farmer who sowed four.
teen acres 10 alfalfa last year had an
experience which might be a help TO
some OF his fellows He sowed the
seed IN the spring and did not take
the precaution to inoculate the soil
with bacteria laden soil from an old
alfalfa field or sweet clover patch.
The field was complete failure ex
cept fer Il quarter Of an acre, on which
the alfalfa grew luxuriantly. He was
at loss 10 understand this, but after
doing considerable thinking he remem.
bered thai some thirty-five years be
fore his father had attempted to grow
some alfalfa ttben caller lucerne) on
this particular spot. While the stand
was noI very good enough OF 1t de
veloped TO lnoculate the soil with the
necessary bacterial life. 1t is more
than likely that many a failure with
alfalfa is traceable to paying no atten'
tion 10 the natter OF soil inoculation.
The high prices which have prevail
ed for small grains for the past two
years have caused good many more
farmers to stack their grain than for
many years past. due to their desire
TO hold 1t and not market 1t with q
rush as soon as thrashed. This will
result in brighter and better quality
of grain which, OF itself Will fetch 9
higher price than that badly discoi
ored. More than this. the stacking Of
the grain has made possible good prog
