Imminenee of CiviI War.

London, April 16.--While many fragmentary reports received here, point to the imminence of civil war in Turkey. owing to the efforts of the defeated Young Turks to re-establish their supremacy, as yet there Is not much authentic information that would tend to show that the troops are ready. to support the Committee of Union and Progress.
 The situation in Constantinople con- tinues quiet, but it may be rememberer that Nazib Pasha, who now Is in com mand of the troops of the capital, was recently at the head of the third army corps in the Salonika district. and it may be ydoubted whether the troops would be willing to rise against their old commander, who possesses great in- fluence over them.
 Enver Bey. one of the chief organiz- CTS of the successful Young Turks rev. oIution. has just arrived at Salonika, where he has assured his friends of the ultimate success of the efforts that are being made to preserve the constitu- tion. There is plenty of evidence also of activity on the part of the com- mittee of Union and Progress and the next forty-eight hours probably will show whether the committee will be able to ensure a military movement of any strength. According to re- ports in Belgrade, the Young Turks still have eo.000 troops at their dis posal in sthe Macedonian Vilayet.
 Meantime the great powers appear to be preparing for naval movements to protect their subjects. should civil war come in Turkey.
 Late tonight no confirmation had been received of the reported murder of missionaries at Adana.

Early Tomatoes,

A truck gardener tells that this is
the way he raised early tomatoes: He
took a dry goods box 2 by feet and
8 inches deep. In each corner of the
box he set piece Of 2-inch pipe. 50
that he could water the plants from
the bottom, pouring in the water and
letting 1t permeate through the soil,
which was composed of sandy loan
put into the box after the bottom had
been covered to the depth of 3 inches
with well rotted and sifted stable ma
nure. The seeds were planted and
lightly covered aud the soil kept moist,
but not wet. In one week after plant
ing the green tops appeared. and in
three weeks they were transplanted
into a similar box, being set an inch
deeper than they grew in the first box.
They grew in the box in sheltered
places for three weeks, when they
were ready for the garden.

L. Finley, in work on American birds,

may perhaps be explained either way,
but which in any case is interesting
A gull seized upon clam and, rising
to a height of about fifteen feet, al
lowed it to fall upon hard ground. The
clam kept it's mouth shut. Again the
gull rose with it to the same height
and dropped it once more, with the
same result. This operation was re-
peated fifteen times, when at last the
shock had the desired effect, the shell
was opened, and the gull enjoyed its
dainty contents

A Belgian investigator has been
looking into the correctness or incor-
rectness Of the somewhat popular be-
lief among farmers that dandelions in
crease the yield of milk, and that in
consequence they are rather desirable
forage than otherwise. He claims that
this belief Is incorrect and is founded
wholly on the false analogy suggested
by the milky juice of the dandelion.
Furthermore, he asserts that dande-
lions in large numbers have delete
rious effect on the quality Of butter
and Is one among the causes which
make it difficult to get butter Of fine
flavor and good keeping qualities in
spring and early summer. Hay which
has large quantities Of dandelions in
it has a similar effect, he says, and he
advises farmers to weed their pastures
whenever it is practicable to do so.

during the last few years that l have
saved a little money. | want to invest
it in something that will return a very
large interest,"
Then on my word, Miss Caterham,
there are only three ways open to you
that l know Of You must put it on
horse race, take it to Homburg, or invest
it in the Great Tontine"
THE race course and Homburg are
preposterous; but what on earth is the
Great Tonrine?"
Enthusiastically did Mr. Carbuckle
plunge into an explanation of what he
termed Mr.. Salisbury's magnificent con-
ception. you are probably destined.
Miss Caterham," he said at length, ito
lose this money. whatever you do with
it; you might as we'll lose hundred in
the Great Tontine' as anywhere else. For
a lady bent upon such desperate gambling
as yourself this speculation seems made
for you. At the end of the first ten years
you will probably be drawing a dividend
of ten or twelve per cent. and from that
out it must be a progressively increasing
dividend. AS the thing nears its end the
few lucky holders of lives will be draw
ing comfortable incomes as interest for
the original hundred they put in; and
then think of the grand prize to wind up
with A property worth a hundred and
sixty thousand pounds will fall to the for
tunate winner but even if you keep in
>the 'Tontine' till at all near the finish
you will have got your money back over
and over again"
Miss Caterham was very much fascinat-
ed with the scheme, and as she listened.
suddenly flashed across her mind mem
ory of Terence Finngan. an old family
servant. The Finnigans were long
lived race; he himself was sixty, and his
father had lived to eighty seven. She de-
termined that she would put one hundred
pounds of her savings into the Great
Tontine' and that the life she would
nominate should be Terence Finnigan.
She accordingly gave Mr.. Carbuckle her
instructions, who readily undertook all
the necessary arrangements

Eggs Preserved with War.

BY novel process of preserving,
eggs six months old are made to retain
their new laid freshness. The pro-
cess has been developed by firm Of
English importers. acting on the theory
that an egg decomposes owing to the
entrance of bacteria through the shell.
The eggs are thoroughly cleansed and
disinfected and then immersed in a
vessel of hot paraffin wax in vacuum.
The air in the shell is extracted by the
vacuum and atmospheric pressure is
then allowed TO enter the vessel. when
the hot wax Is forced into the pores
Of the shell, which thus hermetincally
seals 1t. Evaporation of the contents
of the eggs. which has harmful ef-
feet, is thereby prevented and the egg
is practically sterile.

roots Of the COW pea crop add a great
deal Of nitgrogen to the soil, and have
marked effect on fertility If heavy
green crop of cow peas is plowed un-
der in the autumn it is best not to
plant the land until the following
spring. A very good plan for bringing
up the fertility Of a wornout field is to
sow rye in the fail. plow this under
in the spring harrow thoroughly let
the land lie month, and then sow
COW peas Cut the peas for hay and
SOW rye again. A few seasons of such
treatment will restore fertility to the
soil. Fortunately, both of these crops
will grow on very poor land.

Hogs like salt, and too much salt
will kill them. Being hogs they do not
always know when they have had
enough. If mixed with ashes, or ashes
and sulphur, and deposited in piles no
danger need be feared unless they are
ravenous for salt from long continued
deprivation. But If you give them
brine from the meat barrel in free
doses you might as well give them ar
senic. Meat brine is one Of the hog
poisons Cottonseed is another, but
why no man knoweth. The latter is
slow poison for hogs, yet good food
for cattle.

Ancient Agriculture.

Why agriculture, the first industry
to be learned and so obviously the most
fundamental, was the last to be de-
veloped Is one Of the most battling mys-
teries of history. One marvels at 1t
afresh as one stands before a certain
glass case in the Egyptian quarter of
the British Museum, wherein is a lit
tie group Of farm utenslls-a fractured
wooden plow; rusted sickle. two
sticks tied together with leathern
thong and several tassels that had
hung on the horns of oxen. To be
sure, these implements were used 1900
years ago-they were found in the
tomb of Seti but one remembers
that when Egypt was using these
bread tools, no better than those of the
barbarians about her, she had most
elaborate government, an army and
navy and art and literature.
The records and relics of other ma
tions down through history show the
same strange incongruity. For thou
sands of years the wise men of the
world absolutely ignored the problems
of.the farm. A farmer remained either
a serf or tenant. He was a stolid
drudge-"brothe to the OK" Even the
masterful old pilgrim fathers had no
plows at all-nothng sbut hoes and
sharp sticks-for the first twelve years
of their pioneering. And therefore for
thousands of years there was hunger

The Red Men and the Rocket.

An Emporia (Kan.) man recalls an
interesting incident of the Fourth Of
July celebration held in Emporia in
1859. The Kaw Indians, whose reser-
vatien reached almost as far south as
Americas, heard of the celebration and
started to Emporia in order to reach
there in time for the big feast at night.
A few fireworks had been secured
for the celebration, and when the In
dams reached the corner where the
First Presbyterian church now stands
the people downtown fired big rocket
up north. The Indians saw it coming
and gazed in open mouthed wonder till
it broke high above their heads. Then
the warriors and bucks gave a big
yelp and, turning, fed back toward the
reservation, leaving the frightened
sQuaws and papooses to follow as best
they could. People at Americas said
that when the Indians passed there
they were still running.-St. Louis
Dispatch.
