Good Roads
q Farm Notes

Early blowing makes bigger CROPS
BY the day, did you ever hear OF
road drag?
A good time now to patch up around
the farm buildings.
If possible, put the celery away in
slightly moist, clean sand.
The Toulouse has become one Of
the important adjuncts to the modern
farm.
Only in rare cases do cutwurms
bother crops that are planted on fall
plowed land.
Alfalfa under congenial surround
ings or conditions is business crop
and no loafer.
A coat of manure put on the garden
this fall will give a good account of
itself next June.
Hot bed sashes are usually three
by six feet in dimensions, but smaller
sizes may be used
Seed corn is an expensive luxury Il
placed where the birds, poultry, mice
and rats can get it.

wheat, especially on poor land, as .
green manure CROP
A good time now to haul and spread
manure on the vegetable garden SO
that winter rains can do their part.
Gardens infested with cut worms
may be helped by keeping the Lar J
free from vegetation all fall and burn
ing all trash.
Seed potatoes stored in tho cellar
should be kept In as light place az
possible Light toughens the skins
and retards spTouting.
There would be more broom corn
raised II the farmers generally under
stood how to cut, handle and cure
this money-maklng crop.
The original cost of the machinery
found on the scrap heap OF many OF
our farms would set young couple
up in business In very comfortable
shape.

WhV He Wept,

At a reception one night, says the
Woman's Home Companion, a loud
voiced young man was invited to sing
Desultory applause followed, and he
responded with a vociferous rendering
of MY Old Kentucky Home" The
hostess was passing among her guests
beaming at the success of her enter
tainment and sure that everybody was
having a good time, when suddenly, to
her surprise, she came upon a middle
aged man but slightly known to her
who was weeping silently but bitterly
in a secluded corner. Thinking that
his heart had been touched by the old
song she asked alphabetically:
why do you weep? Are you a Ken
tuckian?"
mo madam" he replied. II am a
musician"

A FRIENDS ADVICE
Something Worth Listening To.

A young Nebr. man was advised by
friend to eat Grape-Nuts because he
was all run down from a spell of
fever. He tells the story:
Last spring had an attack of fe-
yer that left me In q very weak con.

appetite, was nervous and discour-

Mind Reading.

A skeptic on the subject of things
psychic attempted to account for Ger
tain curious happenings by calling
them a matter of mind reading. He
said the facts were uppermost In the
mind of one of the two persons in
volved and were transferred to the
mind of the other, after which they
were dressed up and made to appeal
in the light Of mediumistic communi.
cation. That's all right, but why Ia
mind reading any less psychic, any
less phenomenal than message from
the dead? AS look at 1t. once admit
the power of thought to the extent Of
mind reading and you admit the power
of thought irrespective of the body.
and hence quite as much alive after
so-called death as before. No, mind
reading doesn't appeal to me as much
of an explanation.-Exchange.

A Smoke House Stove.

unfit for table use. This may be all
overcome by the use of an old stove,
one that Is hardly fit for use In the
house for heating purposes.
Make hole that will accommodate
the size of pipe you happen to have
near the floor Of the meat house; set
the stove five or six feet from the
house, that there may be used three
joints Of pipe. This will permit the
smoke to cool sufficiently, which will
give the meat fine flavor.
1t would be better to spend two or
three dollars for a stove than to run
a great risk in building a fire in the
smoke house.

DEVICE FOR WEIGHING GRAIN
Arranged to Work Automatically,
Registering Total Weight of
Grain Passing Through.

The Scientific American in describ
ing an automatic grain weigher, the
invention Of e. L. Adams of Edgar,
Neb.. says:
This device is operated automatical-
ly by the weight Of grain it receives.
1t comprises hollow vessel with an
inlet at one end and an outlet at this
other, and comprising means by which
grain can enter the vessel until its
limit of capacity is reached. Means
also provide for the automatic dis
charge of the grain, and it passes
continuously into the receiving vessel

have the stomach of the woman anal
yzed. An autopsy was performed
early last night by Dr.. w. NJ. Smith,
who testified that he found nothing
wrong with the body. There was
nothing to indicate any injury to
the body, he said, hence it was dccld-
ed to have the stomach examined.
Policeman Nicholson testified to the
evidence he had obtained in the case,
having heard that the woman's death
was due to jealousy over man.
Maria Johnson, colored, at whose
house the girl was visiting, testified
that she came to her house Wednesday
and that night was taken ill and died
about 2:30 o'clock.

for the past two years, and had asked
her to come over to Alexandria, and
she arrived on Wednesday. At l1:4O
o'clock Thursday night he was called
from church by friend, who told
him of her illness. He said he re-
manned with her until she died, and
that she had one convulsion. He
knew nothing further Lomax, who
was detained during the day, as a
witness, was released, there being no
charge against him.
The remains will be forwarded to
