MUSIC.

Music as defined by the aiithor-
tiles is the art which employs
sound as q medium of artistic
expression for what is not in the
province Of literature, of sculp-
ture, of painting, of acting or of
architecture. It has been said
again, that. music is the embodi-
ment of the inward feeling of
which all other arts can but ex-
hibit the effect. In other words,
music is an attempt at the ex-
preston of the highest aspirations
and the deepest fears of the hui
man soul. After we have spoken
and written all that is possible
and chiselel our finest forms and
painted our most beautiful pic
lures there remains a feeling that
is not satisfied, and music is the
effort to satisfy that feeling

The American baby has q
fine, strong ancestry. The young

physical oppression; the young
men of Germany touched with tho
dream of democracy; the pick Of

ABOUT jl'. LIONS.

"There is another peculiar thing
about lions" said the trainer,
''and that is they will not eat
the flesh of a fowl. You might
tempt them with a canvasback
duck or the daintiest squad, but
they would refuse it. This is a
scientific fact. I have tried it
many times. I remember once
having a swan which had broken
its wing. We killed it, dressed
it carefully and threw it into the
cage of the lions, bat they would
not touch it, and it finally had
to be takon out and thrown away.
1 have repeatedly put pigeons
alive into the cage, just to see
what they wonld do. / have
thrown grain down among the
lions and the pigeons have actn-
ally got down and hoped around
the big brutes, even hopping on
their backs, the lions make nc
attempt to disturb them, even
seeming to enjoy their compan'
ship.
There is something strange
about this which is rather diff.
cult to explain. To my mind il
argues that a lion is not brutaI
in his instincts. Savage, he un-
ubtedly is. Fierce at all times
but fierce with justice. ] beliove
erery one of my lions has a con.
silence; | know that every one
OF them knows the difference be-
tween right and wrong; they
know their wondrous power and
are charitable. They would new
or attempt to injure anything
that in no way could do them
harm.
"The study of lion. his hab-
its, character and capabilities, IL
one of the most interesting !
know. It offers a field as yet
comparatively unknown, but the
more one goes into it, the more
time one takes to find out just
what a lion is the more heis col.

named ticking oe beasts. Elk.

INDIVIDUALITY.

TO each intellect belongs spe-
ci;sl power. We belong to our
selves, and we lose control of our
own when we try to be some one
else. The original mind is a
magnetic center for the attrac-
ton of other minds. But the
loaestone loses nothing by at
traction; it remains the same. =

MOVABLE SCHOOLS OF
AGRICULTURE TO BE CON.

THU ED.
In all parts of this State there
are many persons who are anx-
ious to study the methods of mod
ern scientific agriculture, but
who are not able to spend months
at their Agricultural College to
attain this end. Many States
have recognized this need and
have taken steps to meet it by
means Of Farmers's Institute,
Movable Shoots, Correspondence
Courses, and other forms of ag-
ricultural extension work.
Last year the Virginia Poly
technic Institute, having in view
these needs, held sixteen Movab-
le Schools in the different parts
Of the state. There was hearty
cooperation on the part of the
people III the community whore
these schools we're held, and the
work as a whole was an unqual-
lied success. These schools
were of three to four days dura.
ton, and an average attendance
of 1873 pupils per session was
n aintained.
1t is proposed to continue this
year. The Virginia Polytechnic
Institute is prepared to offer
Movable. Schools General Farm
ing, Dairylng and Fruit-growing
during the months of November,
December and January. Prac-
tical intruction will be given
with especial reference to the
needs Of the im1ned date locality.
Each School of Agriculture is
free 80 everybody-man, woman,
or child-who is interested.
There are no examinations and
no books to buv.
This work is conducted under
the United Agricultural Board,
and is subject to the following
regulations: First, Movable
Schools OF Agriculture shall be
held so far as funds will permit,
in any locality where fifty farm
ers sign request for the same,
and agree to attend the meetings.
Second, The community in which
the school is held shall be requir-
ed to guarantee to furnish snit-
able meeting place. board and
lodging for the instructors, to
advertise the meetings and to
bear all other local expenses. The
local expenses borne by the COM
munlty have heretofore not ex-
ceeded $25 per school.
Since number of applications
are fled for these schools and
since their number will be limi-
ted, every community desiring
such school should make apph-
cation at once. All communica-
tions should be addressed to Ell.

tural Department, Blacksburg,

THE ABANDONED MILL
AND THE FARMER.

Scattered broadcast Through
our land are h undreds of water
mills long since abandoned. Rel
les of busy centers these, where
the grind Of til o millstones. the
clatter Of machinery, and the
|creaking Of the old water-wheel,
once WED with the roar Of the in
|dustrious stream, Now all IS
still, within the old mill walls,
the dust, the moss, the rot,
aud the rust, show that it has
long since given up its struggle
with the progress of modern in
dustry. Wheat is now ground
in steam driven mills, a hundred
fold greater, and little manufac-
turing plants have moved to the
city, where they can avail them
selves of steam and electric pow
er close the consumer of their
products. But back in the coun-
try the idle mill stream still pours
over the old dam, and dashes
down the spillway in utter ahan-
don--hundreds, may be- thou
sands of horsepower literally 60
ing to waste-while in the ada
cent fields the farmer, whom it
once served, still tolls at his
plough and sends his grain thou
sand miles away to the steam mill.
Is this really progress? Can
we feel justly proud of the indus
trial advancement of our great
nation. while such prodigalitv
exists? But what can be done
with these water-powers. A few
of them, the larger ones Of cours,
which are advantageously situa-
ted, have been set to work gon-
Grating electricity for light and
power purposes. But the small
Ter ones-have they no further
value? OF course they have; and
we need not look far afield to
find ready market for this pow
er, small though it may be Side
by side with these idle streams,
ire t b 9 over-driven farmers,
whose labor troubles have null
tiplied appallingly, and who
are crying for help to do the
necessary work on their farms.
why should such an anomalous
condition continue any longer?
Why not convert these old mills
into electric power stations, and
let electricity tighten the farmers
tasks? The first objection that
comes to ones mind is that the
cost would be- prohibit We. That
this is not so is clearly proven.
T. Commerford Martin and Mr..
Putnam A. Bates, both engineers
of highest standing, outline a pol
| icy bywhich these fast-deceying
relics may be put to some use.
The capital required is not large,
and a dozen farmers could band
together and install cooperative
electric-generating plant in the
old mill, which would furnish
all the electricity they would
need. The average farmer would
not require more mere than fifty
horsepower, and with cooper
tive plant he could obtain his
power so cheaply as to make il
well worth his while. We know
of no better way of utilizing the
smaller streams of our country,
and it does not require a prophet
to see in such a plan a material
advancement of the farmers con
dition. The first cooperative
farmers power generating sta
ton will make a notable step in
our industrial progress, and in
conservation of our natural re-
sources. =
