Bitterness in An Epitaph.

Mason and Dixon's line is fast be-
coming a memory but here and there
are to be found evidences OF the once
bitter hatred which prevailed in the
days of the Civil War.
George K. Kerdolh, who before en-
terins the insurance business spent
mich time in the South, tells this
story of an epitaph rudely carved on
block of sandstone yet to be seen in
a Louisiana parish
When the slogan Of the South was,
con to Washington and the youth of
the Confederacy, had shouldered their
muskets for the front, leaving only
the older folks and women and chill
dren at home, a band of Union SOL
diers came into Louisiana. Sighting
the enemy, the. aged men, assisted by
the women, gathered together their
scant supply of firearms and planned
resistance. AS the Federal forces
came up a narrow lane the Southern
ers opened fire with such deadly eff
feet that the invaders retreated, leav-
ing one of their number dead upon
the field of battle.
The victors buried the fallen foe
and over his grave, to this day, one
may read the roughly chiseled epitaph:
''The Yankee bands with bloody hands
came southwark to divide our lands.
This lonely and deserted spot is all
this derned old Yankee got" kansas

SCALES OF THE EEL.
They Are Very Minute and Resemble
HerringbOne Brickwork.

: In the ordinary acceptation of the
term the eel is a scaleless fish. But it
is due to the fact that its scales are
very minute and imbedded in the skin.
They form, as pointed out by CORE
spondent, very interesting and beautf-
ful objects for a microscope. In size
the scales of the eel vary from one
: twentieth of an inch upward, accord
ing to the age of the fish. They are
formed of two layers of clear, horny
Substance, the upper of which is
studded with crystals of calcium car
Donate. These are so transparent as
to look like empty cells. The scales
vary in shape from blunt to an elon-
gated oval and are sometimes almost
kidney shaped.
This is how the scales of the eel
tell its age. On each may be observ-
ed at intervals several more or less
clearly marked lines parallel to the
margin. These mark lines of growth.
one for each year of the life of the
fish. Three years, however, must be
allowed fer the innermost ring, as the
eel has no scales until the third year.
The scales do not overlap to any ex-
,tent and are arranged in series of
small groups at right angles to each
other, so as to resemble what is
known as herringbone brick work.
Conger eels, however, are said to
have no scales.-London Field.

NO REASON FOR BLINkERS.
Tens of Thousands of Horses Are
Now Working Without Them.

st is said that the use of bllnkers, or
blinders. as they are called In this
country, had its origin in the desire OF
certain fashionable folks for con-
yenient place to display the family
crest OF course, the common excuse
is that they keep the horse from shy
ing.
'sThere is no reason why horses
should wear blinkers," says writer
in the bulletin of the S. P. A. "Thls is
shown by the fact that there are tens
of thousands of horses working sa1ls-
faetorily without them, not only IN
private carriages, but in cabs, vans
and ambulances and in towns "nere
the traffic is thickest.
.No riding horse is ever seen with
thinkers: they would be considered to
look ridiculous with them; the draft
horses in the army do not wear them,
and the large brewers anu lne on10l
railway companies have long ago DIS
pensed with them.
eve recently read in German pa
ner that their use had been done away
with by the authorities in Berlin
Dusseldorf, Aachen, Koenigsberg
and Cassel. In Darmstadt they are
allowed only in special cases, and
Hamburg has lately decreed that they
shall be permitted only if they stand
we'll away from the horses eyes.
eThe difficulty OF dispensing with
blinkers in~the case of horses which
have been accustomed to them, even
for years, is largely imaginary. We
have known several cases where the
change has been made and there has

SQUARE sIL0s.

Ira Wsmpler, Carthage, Missouri,
writes as follows: 'I wish to build a
square si1o in one corner of my barn,
but do not know the best way to pro-
ceed. Any information you can give
will be appreciated"
The square silo is fast going out of
use, because of the dificulty-fn con-
structing same in such way as to
make it profitable Several years ago,
or. in other words, when silo building
was in it's infancy, good many square
silos we're constructed, but they were
soon abandoned for several reasons,
mainly because it was impossible to
prevent leaking at the sides, and Sec
ond, the silage spoiled in the corners.
The next step of advancement was to
board up the corners, which made the
silo more of a round structure, and
the latest development has been the
round silo, which is considered far
superior to the square type of con-
struction.
We are sending you under separate
cover our farm barn plans, and you
will note that there is plan for silo.
This is a concrete silo, which is sim.
liar to many that are being built in
various sections of the corn belt
When properly constructed, the con.
crete silo is more permanent than the
wooden silos, and preserves the silage
equally as we'll as the other types.
The first cost may be little bit more,
but the permanency offsets this oh.
lection. There is another type of silo
which is being built very extensively
throughout Iowa, which is known as
the Iowa silo, and is built of hollow
tile or hollow building blocks. For
further information on this silo, we
suggest that you write to Professor
NJ. L. King, Ames, Iowa.

DISK HARROW; BERMUDA GRASS
The Disk Harrow Is Indispensable and
Should Be on Every Southern Farm

The Disk Harrow Is indispensable and
Should Be on Every Southern Farm
(Reply to F. /. Webb, Lee Hall, Va.)
You can not invest the same amount
of money to better advantage than by
purchasing a good disk harrow.
The difference in the working or a
cutaway and a solid disk is that the
cutaway penetrates the ground much
deeper and throws it up in a much
coarser condition than the solid disk
The solid disk pulverizes the soil
much better.
The double disk harrow is desirable
for farmers who wish to DO two disk
ings at the same time. The front
harrow can be set to out-throw and
the rear harrow to in-throw. This
will thoroughly pulverize the soil and
leave the field level. The main ad,
vantage of the double disk harrow is
that if you desire to use, the regular
disk, you can remove the rear attach
ment very quickly and easily.
This will depend on the nature OF
the soil, the angle given the disks,
and the weight of the man on the
harrow. AS rule, it is not advisable
to purchase disk harrow with more
than eight 16-inch disks for use on a
three-horse farm.
Bermuda grass will probably make
good pasture on your land. The
Rhode Island bent (Agrostis Canina)
creeping bent (Agrcstis Stolanifera)
and common redtop (Agrostis Vulga
ris), form one of the most dense sods
known. The chief value of these
grasses is for pasture. They are
especially valuable for making pas
lures in sandy, moist places. The
following mixtures are frequently
used in your section of the country;
Cd Timothy, 16 pounds; redtop, 1e
pounds; red clover, pounds-per acre
(2) Redtop, 13 pounds; orchard grass
Is pounds; meadow fescne. pounds
and red clover, poun6s-per acre. (3)
Tall cat grass, % pounds; and red
clover, pounds-per acre.
The arsenical solution is used by the
United States Department of Agri
culture and is probably the best solu
ton to use. Write DR.. A. ]. Herman

The mangels should be pulled before

THE MAN WHO RULES IN FEE.
The Story of An Audience With the
Sultan of Morocco.
Harper's Weekly.

Harper's Weekly.
To leave Fez without being present
ed to the sultan would have left
sense of incompleteness. At the en-
trance of the palace gates were many
sleek mules richly caparisoned with
crimson saddles and silver carved stir
rup irons. Native gentlemen awaited,
and attendants held the animals. A
Moor who spoke English greeted me
by name and said the doctor would ar
rive soon. Dismounting, handed my
horse to a soldier and waited. The
doctor came, and with him a gentle
man from Paris. 1t was warm az
ternoon and the rich foliage from the
palace grounds glinted in the sunlight
and stirred in the cool breezes.
Across a bare space OF fiat ground

a room with 8 windows screened by
design cut in wood was the recep-
ton room of Mulay Ell Hafd, ruling
snltan of Morocco. The M'Hasni, or
sultan's soldiers, squatted in long
row against the wall or loitered
among the arches. The doctor led US
to the left, having a clear space IN
front of the sultan's office. The sui
tan apparently entered and came to-
ward the central door, but we could
not see him. The MHasni had formed
in line facing the door. When the sui
tan presented himself to their view
thew bowed low and shouted, Cod
bless the life of our lord and master"
then returned to squat against the
wall.
Awaiting our turn to be presented
we had leisure to inspect the State
department at work. In room about
sixteen feet by ten, Moors OF rank
were seated, squatting upon a rug
their backs toward the walls. These
were the ministers and their scribes.
