We recently made some reference to the
Christmas Stamps, and have since been
obligingly furnished with the following par
t|iculars about them.
IN regard! to their ori@in W learn 'hst
they are issued by the Ladies Association
in st. Thomas.
OF course a profit is made by1heir sale
dow is his profit expended? We are told
that the profit made by the sale III ST.
Thomus goes to the Association which issued
the stamps, hence goes mainly 70 heip aged
poor persons in ST. Thomas. On the other
ilnd, the profit on tue stamps sold in st.
Croix, goes to Queen Lonse's Institution
{ot Nur,iug the SICK and children il the
Danish West India Islands, hence is for the
heueit OF SICK pefseas and the children OF
the poor.
The season for using the stamps is clo.e
al baud, aud we hope, in view Of he excel
lout use to be made Of the income, that they
Mul fad an extensive sale.

DO NOT SOW SPRING WHEAT
AFTER RYE

Complaint has been received this
fall that spring wheat is coming into
the Minneapolis market containing a
mixture Of rye. The mixture is caused
by growing wheat on land that raised
rye last year, the rye appearing as a
volunteer crop. The rye in the wheat
is detrimental to it's value for flour.
making purposes and the millers and
!rrain buyers naturally discriminate
against the mixture.
Tt is suggested that trouble along
this line can be avoided by following
the re crop with a coarse feed crop
or with = hay crop if possible. This
can easily be provided for by the
proper arrangement of crops in rota-
ton. A six-year rotation of rye, lin
othy and clover, pasture, corn, wheat,
and oats, or seven-year rotation Of
wheat, timothy and clover, pasture,
corn, wheat, rye and oats, would be
satisfactory, where these crops can be
used. It is somewhat more difficult
to have the oats follow rye in a short
rotation if the grasses are used. A
crop rotation mn: t always be arranged
with a view to the kind of farming
that person is doing and to supply
the feed ami market demands.
1t is ho'ie:ed that the mixture of
rye in tie spring wheat is serious
enought 20 justify sowing oats or feed
barley after the rye crop, or using rye
las a r'rse crop in seeding down.

Farm, st. Paul.

LIVE STOCK INSURANCE

The Union Stock Yards at Chicago
has instituted the plan of charging ter
cents per car load Of stock to provide
fire insurance. This sum is turned over
as a premium to large eastern in
surance company which becomes La
BILE to owners for loss or damage by
fire to cattle, hogs, sheep and goats
while in the yards. Horses are not in
sured.
So far as we know this is the largest
live stock insurance project in this
country. Important as it may be to
the man who markets directly in Chi
cago, a large percentage Of stock own
ers do not fall in this class at all
Those who do, receive protection fol
only very brief period in the life Of

RED CROSS CHRISTMAS SEALS

Rel Cross Christmas Seals and to the
seal agents who by their splendid CO.

sns'7e possible a state educational cam
eIra1:,n that has reached every city and
7'""ntry-that this is the last appeal
that will be made to the people of Min
ncsota to buy seals for state work.
We believe that the coming legisla.
&ure will pass the bills that will be
introduced providing for state super
'viSed system of hospitals, lispensaries,
sl;'"ses, and enforced sanitary ,egula-
tioEs-without which things the death
rare will not be appreciahiv covered
al are resting everything upon this
!bc 'ief. But these bills ami the reasons
for them must be brought to the at
tention Of every tax payer which will
cost lot of money. So former and
prospective seal agents arc urged to
write at once to the state Red Cross
seal agent, Christopher Easton, at the
odd Capitol, St, Paul for assignment c1
.~terNsory Supplies, etc.
. we hope that every sales agent wi!
mt reloubled vigor into the campaigt
his wear and so provide the sinews d
1vor FOR a battle that ought to mari
the beginning of the end. ..
This is fight that we ought all t.
he proud to have been engaged in an
let us fight it to finish.
Nothing above. stated binds any ,e

MILES STANDISH.

Miles Standish is one of the Pill
grim Fathers who has ratified down
through history in company with
some amorous blank verse by H.
Longfellow. Miles came over in the
Mayflower and had all of the dis
eases which the Pilgrim Fathers
brought with them, but he had a very
low rating as Puritan, having a
temper which nobody cared to toy
with and a vocabulary of rich and
unadorned eXpletives. On account
of his squatty style of architecture
and mild blue eye, Miles was picked
on good deal at first by strangers,
several of whom died while in the act
of discovering their mistake. The
Pilgrim Fathers and the Indians
were not on speaking terms at this
time, as the Indians used to come
around and kill off a few of the
neighbors and steal onions and other
canned goods. AS this was before
the Goldfish ball was invented, an epi-
demic of the triple-plated scurvy
broke out and the colonists were kept
so busy scratching each others backs
ing from a corn-husking bee. Miles
refused to have anything to do with
the scurvy, but his friend, John AL
den, got enough for two, as is so
touchingly portrayed by Mr.. Long
fellow. Miles had been made a
widower some time before, and not
liking it as well as he thought he
should, he decided to marry Priscilla
Mullins, a young lady who came as
near being coquette as any of the
Pilgrim Mothers ever got without be-
ing parboiled over a slow fire for
witchcraft. On the day that he in
tended to propose to Priscilla, Miles
was called out to suffocate a few In
dians, so he sent Mr.. Alden with a
power of attorney and a quit claim
deed to his shotgun. John Alden is
one of the basest characters in Amer
ican history. Clad in a blue nan
keen suit and the fetid atmosphere
of the quinine pill, he sidled up to
Priscilla and suggested that she
ought to marry somebody before old
age gilded her with crowfeet and
other blemishes. Priscilla had not
thought of being married that week
but after remarking, This is so sud
den," or words to that effect, she
laid her head on Johns shoulder and
spilled number of large, salt tears
on his shirt front. When Standish
heard the news at prayer meeting
his first impulse was to erect a mod
est headstone over Johns remnants
but after seeing a little of Johns
home life and the brand of sole leath-
er cooking he had to put up with. he
ceased to repine.

REFRIGERATOR SERVICE.

The inauguration of a fast refrig-
orator line from Ashland to Portland,
by the S. p. Company, will prove of
incalculable benefit to the Rogue
river valley. 1t will carry all sorts
of vegetable, fruit and poultry prod
ucts and provide market for the
valley heretofore impracticable.
The service will be started as a tri-
weekly experiment, its permanency
depending upon the tonnage. If the
tonnage increases, as il no doubt will.
the service will be made daily.
This service should prove an i'm
mense stimulus to dairy and poultry
culture in the valley. There is no
reason why carload of poultry
products per day should not be pro-
duced by Ashland alone. There is
no better place on the coast for
chicken culture.
Slowly but surely the Rogue river
valley is being put in touch with its
natural and profitable markets
through the S. p Company, a con.
summation long hoped for and now
hailed with gratitude.
