Potash content of cIay soIIs.

According to a recent bulletin of the New Hampshire station. the clay and clay loam soils carry sufficient potash for the production of maximum yields of hay, and that large part of the potash applied in fertilizers is lost SO far as the crop is concerned. In other words, the addition of conner cial potash to such soils is unneces- sary. When barnyard manure, which contains a large amount of potash, is added, the value lies, not in the pot ash, but in the other fertilizing ele- ments, and in large part in the i'm provement of the physical condition of the soil.

WEDDINGS OF 400"
ARE SCORED BY PREACHER AS
 COUNTRIES DISGRACE.
Professor of Theology Wants Law to Forbid Such ScandaIs-GouId-Dec and Other Alliances Held Up
 as Examples.

Cambridge, Mass.-Dr. Henry s. Nash, professor in the Episcopal Theo- logical school In this city, believes that restrictions should be placed on marriages and that the divorce laws of this country should be uniform. Doctor Nash quotes four alliances which he says are disgrace to any community, and which unions, he claims, indicate a political condition pointing to anarchy Concerning these alliances Doctor Nash says:
 The Eames-Gogorza swap is an ex- ample of the deplorable matrimonial triangle in which it is to be presumed that a well-paid husband agrees to wink at his wife's escapades with an- other man.
 "The Gould-Decies alliance is noth- ing but a marriage bureau contract Gould has been called man of sense, but this is bargain which I believe never ought to be tolerated or recog- nized by society. There ought to be laws against such marriages as this one. The reported Chanler-Cavalier1 case is too repellant to be dwelt upon- It does not even serve to illustrate the point I am trying to bring out. It is one of those instances in which hu- man nature shows its most offensive side.
 'The reported McKim-Vanderbilt trade is a case where America has ap- parently been aping the worst GUS toms of the decadent aristocracy of Europe There are similar cases to be seen among the petty nobility abroad. A necessary factor in the solution of such marriage problems is divorce. Divorce is an institution wherein this country excels European countries. Our divorce system Is not by any means perfect, but it is prefer able to the European evil. If the law should make 1t impossible to get divorce, this country would soon be in a worse predicament than 1t is at pres ent. Marriages such as these are the result of Americans aping the decadent customs of Europe. There is in this country today a perfectly organized marriage bureau whereby European lordiings are enabled to barter titles often bad ones-for American girls and American money"
 Doctor Nash says that the remedy lies in the proper rearing of the chill dren, in the salvation of politics by men worthy to hold political positions, and by the patriotic adherence to the dogma of liberty, equality and frater- nity.

AdoptIno a Lamb.

In case an eve loses her lamb she should be made to adopt a twin, and this is often difficult thing to do. One of the best methods is to strip the skin from the dead lamb while 1t is yet warm and place 1t over the body of the lamb that is to be adopt ed, tying 1t on by wrapping a light string about it many times. Then if this little orphan in another's cloth ing is placed with the mother, nine times out of ten she will adopt it without protest. As soon as the lamb has suckled two or three times the skin may be removed and no further dific culty will be experienced.

ONLY five Times
IN 400 YEARS
Decade Begins on Sunday Only That
Number of Times-Strange
Figures.

With the beginning of the second
decade of the twentieth century, 1911,
some very strange and interesting
facts are deduced.
That the beginning of 1911 being on
Sunday, the first day of the week, the
first day of the month, and the first
day of the year, is not as strange as
that the first day of the decades are
very few that start out on Sunday.
This singular coincidence in the de-
cades has occurred before only five
times in just 400 years, when in 1911,
according to the Gregorian calendar
new style), it was the same as now,
1911. Again it occurred in 1861, then
again in 1861, and again in 1741, and
then the last before now was the be-
ginning Of the decade 1871, forty years
ago.
The next time that it will occur
will be 1861, or fifty years hence, and
the next time after that will be POSI-;
then again in PAL, the next in 2271,
and then again in 2311, or 400 years
from now, and so on along down the
yves at periods of 400 years from each
of the years given above.
1t is also very interesting to note
that since the beginning of the Chris
tian era, according to the Julian old
style calendar, the seventh and four
teenth centuries, that is, COL and 1901,
are the only centuries up to the pres
ent time that have started off on Sun
day (the first of the week, month and
year,, and, according to the present
calculating of time, it will never &C.
cur again.-Scientific American.

Errors of Judgment

There are many people who labor
under the impression that the com
mercial value of eye glasses and spec
tacles are about the same, this is not
true. While 1t is sound business poll
cy to buy goods at as low a price as
possible, quality and merit should not
be sacrificed or lost sight of in the
glare of cheap prices. Quality and
merit cost money. No man ever made
a thing so poor and cheap, but that
some poor devil could not be found
that could make it poorer and cheaper
yet. No man or woman with ordinary
common sense can be led to believe
(more than once) that they can obtain
the same degree of value from an arti-
fetal which costs $1.OO to produce, as
they can from one that costs $500.
Our prices are the lowest consistent
with quality.
