Value Of Cowpeas.

The cowpea is large beanlike plant
that produces large amount Of for
age. 1t is valuable for a green food
or for blowing under for green ma
nure. 1t has been used successfully
for improving wornout soils, especial
ly those that are light and sandy in
texture. Its greatest advantage for
this purpose is it's ability to gather
nitrogen from the air and mineral ele-
merits from subsoil. When the crop
is plowed under these are left near
the surface, where they will be avail
able to shallow rooted crops and those
which cannot get nitrogen from the
air. 1t has been little used for hay in
the north, because it cannot be read
lily dried in this climate. 1t makes
good green feed for milk cows be-
tween Aug. Is and Sept. 10, or it may
be preserved in the silo by mixing
with corn fodder.

WAGNER > Livina Paradox.

As an artist Wagner had unequaled
genius. AS man, though generous,
temperate and virtuous to an unusual
degree, be also had extraordinary
faults. He was egotistical and proud,
prone to fierce enmities; he went to
extremes in everything. A living par
adox; impatient. irritable and nervous;
noble and petty; never made a man
more friends and more enemies. He
was worshiped and hated Taken all

CORN AND FODDER TIME.
Progressive Farmers Cure the Crop as
They Do Wheat.

They Do Wheat.
All through August and far into the
autumn months, according to locality,
the corn harvest will be under way.
In the south it is called fodder pull
ing time" Wherever corn is grown
the season for gathering it in is al
ways interesting. There seems to be
than in any other. At the same time the
work Of stripping corn from the stalk
and in stacking the fodder shocks is
not altogether play. The progressive
farmers of the northern and middle
states are more expert in the saving Of
fodder than are the farmers Of the
south. The plan is simple. They cut
down the stalks, blades and all, and
cure them in the shocks as many farm
ers do with their wheat and oats.
Many southern farmers have tried
the plan Of cutting and curing in
shocks and afterward swapping off the
ears and shredding the blades and
stalks.
For year or two the plan was very
popular. 1t looked as II 1T would be al
most universally adopted. Those who
were fortunate in getting first class
shredding machines and who exercised
ordinary judgment and skill in ham
ding the corn crop in this way were
delighted with their experience, and
many are still following the practice.
For ten or twelve years the Georgia
experiment station has practiced the
cutting and shocking and shredding
system, and this plan is still pursued
with satisfaction. One or two years,
owing to unusually bad seasons in

Curious Tr.nsf.renee of Heat.

A workman In the observatory at
Toulouse has invited attention to a sim
gular phenomenon. A bar Of iron is
taken by the end, and the other end
is plunged into fire, heating 1t strong
~, but not so much that the hand
cannot retain its hold. The heated
end is then plunged into pail of cold
water. Immediately the other end be-
comes so hot that it is impossible to
hold 1t. This phenomenon. familiar to
workmen In iron. Is ascribed by them
to some repellent action they suppose
the sudden cold exerts upon the heat
contained in the iron, which is thus
driven to the opposite extremity. Chi

Pumpkins For Fall Feed.

1t will pay to sow plenty of pumpkin
seed. Pumpkins are one of the best
fall and winter green feeds for almost
all kinds of stock, especially dairy ami
mails. They are especially relished by
hogs and cows. and they are excellent
to mix with dairy feed for the produc-
ton of milk, the cows relishing them
greatly.

tween France and Germany, has been

rived both from Berlin and from Of
ficial quarters in Paris that an agree
ment Is more likely since the French
proposals have been read by the EN-.
peror and the imperial chancellor.
The anxiety, however. by no means
has disappeared, but Il certain conf.
dence has been inspired by the pub
lished statement Of sober minded
journals. such as the Temps, that the
probability of an accord has sensibly
increased.
The foreign office maintains COM
