Result OF Scientific Farming.

A forthcoming circular of the
Agricultural Department will contra
dict the prevailing impression that
the fertility of the soil of the coun-
try is wearing ont but will show
that, Notwithstanding the abandon
ment of farming districts in the
Northeast, not only is there an in
crease in the total volume of crops,
but an actual growth in the average
yield per acre under cultivation. This
result is obtained by restoring to
the soil those elements and COM
pounds needed and consumed by the
different crops.
The well-informed farmer of the
present day does not blindly send
his plants out to grope for their
food; but sees that it is supplied
them in proper measure Recent
discoveries in bacteriology have
greatly assisted the planter, enabling
him to obtain bacteria, with which
the growing plant may be inoculat-
ed and by which the nitrogen of the
air is fixed in form available for
plant food and fed to the plant as
required. A few cents per acre spent
inoculating the plants comes back
to the farmer in increased yield OF
many dollars per acre.-Mobile

Half a dozen Kansas men who

news reached the parlor. which ad-

dressing the clerk, II wonder If he
wears socks?"
Mr.. Simpson was standing hard by
and overheard the remark. The
women all laughed at this well-worn
witticism, and they stopped suddenly
when Jerry said quietly to the clerk:
II wonder II they wear stockings?"
Whereupon the women fled to the
parlor amid a silence that was knee
deep.-Kansas City Journal.

How He Made A CuddIe.

A gentleman went into a pipemak-
er's shop with the intention of see
ing the method of making pipes
The proprietor. who was a Scotch
man, had arrived from Edinburgh a
few weeks before.
When the Phlladelphian got in the
shop he found only a boy back of
the counter, so without any more
ado he thus addressed him:
We'll. my Gallant. I'll give you a
quarter II you show me how you

"sic as men women smoke DOT on" "
"Ill give you quarter IL you
show me how to make that"
"Gie's yer quarter furst." was the
reply.

quarter. and he took long pipe and

and the embankment wall. Another
chain of policemen had control of the
park slopes from the wall to the
driveway; then still another force had
charge of the sidewalks and the drive
way
BY day the field hospitals displayed
white bunting flags with gold cross
and white bunting flags with green
cross. BY night each flew balloons
with green and white lights attached.
Wigwagging signals were used in
communicating between police boats
and shore stations by day, and green
and white lights served the same
purpose at night.
AS planned, too. the army Of police
men were massed as the crowds
shifted their density. For instance,
when the naval parade passed the
Brooklyn shore and the crowds in
that vicinity began dispensing, this
fact was communicated at once to
Deputy Commissioner Bugher.
At once he directed that the 900
special policemen on service there
take q special elevated train which
was in waiting, hurry to the subway,
march aboard special subway cars
and hasten to Manhattan. In this way
every link of the police organization
was movable at moments notice,
so that the maximum of policemen
was utilized where the crowd was
densest.
No policeman had time off during
the parade days. All were ordered
to wear their uniforms at all times
except when in bed. This order ap-
piled to every member of the force,
in whatever capacity. When not on
active duty each policeman snatched
his rest in the station house, thus at
the same time acting as a unit in
the special reserve system while OBJ
tanning his needed rest.
An especial letter, issued by the
Commissioner, was read six times to
every member of the department,
pointing out the need of patience and
tact in handling the great crowd of
visitors.
Above most of the hotels flags OF
various foreign nations were to be
seen, indicating the presence of some
of the delegates to the celebration
from foreign shores. Over the Hotel
Astor the Governors flag announced
that Governor Hughes and his family
had their quarters there.

tenders who tried to have fun" with
the populace during the Hudson-Ful-
ton celebration. Not only were the
regular police details. in sections
where the crowds gathered, prac-
tically doubled, but the Interborough
put in commission large corps of
special officers. The surface lines,
with the aid of the police, were in
position to take care of the rowdies
who tried to make every day seem
like the Sunday Of their own partic-
ular devising.

New York City.-Throughout the
Hudson-Fulton celebration there was
constantly in motion one of the great
est machines ever assembled, In re-
gard to its thousands of human parts
operating, in unity, in the work of
the Police Department of New York
City.
This great machine, with it's blocks
of patrolmen, it's wagons, its shutting
ambulances, its field hospitals, its
squads of surgeons and nurses, its
fleets of launches and rowboats, was
practically under the guidance of one
man as chief engineer, First Deputy
Police Commissioner Frederick H.
Bugher, who evolved the elaborate
plan under which the millions who
thronged the city's streets were as
sured the maximum Of protection.
Plans we're outlined to care for
crowds of from 100000 to S.000,-
900 on the days of the great parades,
and so skilfully were the arrange
ments made that this was done with
out reducing the regular police pa
trolls or decreasing the regular re-
serves which were held at all stations
to cope with possible emergencies.
Aside from that, too, 1900 policemen
were available for special duty
throughout the ceremonies.
AS factors in this monster mechan-
ism twenty-seven police signal sta
tions were established, running in a
chain from the st. George ferry, Rich
mond, through Brooklyn, up Manhat-
tan and the Bronx to the railroad
tower at the junction of Spuyten
Duyvil Creek and the Hudson River
Each of these stations had a direct
wire to headquarters. and each was
equipped with an ambulance or a pa
troll wagon provided with surgeon and
stretcher.
On the line of Saturdays naval
parade an auxiliary line Of twenty
four telephone stations was installed.
Thirteen separate ambulance stations
lay at intervals between the St.
George ferry, on Staten Island, and
Dyckman street and Broadway. These
were supplemented by fifteen field
hospitals, each fully equipped with
beds and nurses, as well as two float
ing hospitals.
Another chain of twenty patrol
wagons, each In charge of a police
surgeon, was run from Tompkins-
Vile to Dyckman street, while fleet
of fourteen launches and steamers
patrolled the water front continuous
ly from the Kill Won Kull to Spuyten
Duyvil Creek Supplementing the
latter there was a fleet of rowboats
covering the water front.
A three-ply thickness of police au-
thority was planned for the entire
length of Riverside Drive and it's
fringe of park. Inspectors, each with
+. six to seven captains under them,
and the latter in command of squads
of from forty to sixty, had charge of

The Tennis Champion Says
MAY SUTTON
Tells American Girls How To BE
Healthy and Graceful.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal.
Don't drink coffee.
Don't drink tea.
Don't exercise too much.
These three don'ts constitute the
advice of Miss May Sutton, champion
woman tennis player of the world. to
girls who would go in seriously and
systematically for athletics.
Eat what you want.
Take long walks.
Get all the fresh air you can.
These are the three rules Miss SUIT
ton lays down for girls who desire
merely to be strong and healthy
The little champion recently ap-
peared on courts in San Francisco in
series Of exhibition matches. It
had been reported that she was not in
the best of health, but she gave no in
dication OF having gone back" play
ing her strong game that made her
worlds champion, with her same old
dash and accuracy.
At the close of the series Miss SUIT
ton was asked TO tell what system of
training she had found most effective
and what, in her opinion, is the best
form OF exercise and diet for the av-
erage American girl. Inpart she said:
while I advocate hearty
eating, l cannot say too much
against the use OF tea or coffee.
They are nerve desroyers and
no one can be healthy who
persists in their use.
TOO much exercise is as bad as too
little. Walking is the best exercise
there is. Early each morning. after
drinking glass of hot wafer. dressed
In loose clothing. walk for nearly
an hour.
Athletics should receive some at
tention from every girl. II her time
preciudes the playing OF tennis or golf
she should take long walks In the
open air, both before the morning
and evening meal, throwing the head
and shoulders back and taking long,
deep draughts OF that which money
cannot buy but is in reach OF the poor
as well as the rich--pure air.
Pure air and a moderate amount
of exercise cannot too strongly inn
press upon girls as being the only Sc
cret of health and grace. Medicine
for that out-of-sorts feeling may cause
girls 70 imagine they feel all right.
but what they really need is more
fresh air and not quite so much sit
ting around the house in tight-fitting
clothes as great many of them do"

clans to be perfect athlete. Tennis
experts declared that every movement
is "a picture. "--Lsrington (Kr) Leader.

Shall Smiling BE Made Mandatory

Oihil oIiiiiHR De lhuuc hdhuutOIg
Is there no peace in the world for
the man of serious mien? Must one
smile, smile, smile from morning till
night whether one feels like it or
not?
Faddists say the dinner table joke
is the best aid to digestion and pro-
notes domestic peace. When dull
care intrudes, laugh it away. If
your neighbor flies to wrath because
your cocker spaniel chases his fowls,
dissolve his anger with a smile. In
short, keep. on smiling.
And now comes a new social dis
ease which this panacean smile is
guaranteed to cure. AS If man had
not already crystalized his features
into a perpetual grin, he is now ad-
vised to smile to prevent his COM
mitting suicide! This new doctrine
Is advanced by a writer in a medical
publication. PLAY, smile and don't
kill yourself is the slogan in brief
Let us harbor still a kind thought
| for the man who refuses to smile at
societys behest. Not that anyone
would discourage smiling; merely
| let us not make the rule mandatory
At least, permit the poor fellow some
! little option as to when and how
much he shall smile-Cleveland

UNvEIL. FULTON TABLET.

Lancaster, Pa. The Lancaster
County Historical Society unveiled a
memorial to Robert Fulton in the lit
tie hamlet of Fulton House, the birth
place of the inventor. twenty miles
south of this city. Among those in
attendance were Governor Stuart and
Ex-Governor Pennypacker, both of
whom made addresses.
The exercises were continued in the
afternoon, and during the luncheon
hour there was an exhibit of Fulton
relics consisting of manuscripts,
drafts, mementos, etc.
The stand from which the speakers
delivered their addresses was mod
eled to represent Fulton's first steam
boat, the Clermont. 1t was profusely
decorated with the national colors.
