Wonder Of Common Things.

I live, in this little cottage that
seems to have alighted, like a Bird
on the slope of this gentle hill. Red
and white peonies grow before the
door, enriching the air with their
fragrance. They charm both me and
the bees. In yonder bush beside the
door a chipping-sparrow sits upon her
nest; and in the swinging branch OF
the elm tree overhead two orioles rear
their brood, and as they flash by.
their golden colors delight the human
beings that watch them. Look over
that stone wall, and mark how its fiat
line gives an Incompatible effect to
the landscape. See our New England
fields dotted with New England elms;
and far beyond see those white-sailed
schooners scud before the boisterous
wind. The farmers boy, who fetches
milk and eggs, left me that nosegay OF
wild flowers. Look! Look! See how
the wilderness of that cloud glorifies
the blue Of the sky. Is it not strange
that all these things, that 90 about
their own business, should, by the
way, perform a work Of supereroga-
ton and give us so much unnecessary
pleasure?-H. D. Sedgwick. in the

New York Pharmaceutical Era calls
attention to the fact that it is an un.

Iron Bearing Plants.

Experiments are under way at the
agricultural meteorological station in
Vienna to increase the quantity OF
iron carried in certain plants, with a
view to the effect on the human sys-
tenn when those plants are used as
food. Artificially prepared foods con-
tanning iron do not always produce
the desired effect, because the iron
Is not completely assimilated. This
difficulty, it is thought, may be avoid
ed by causing plants to take up an in
creased quantity Of iron during their
natural growth. BY adding hydrate OF
iron to the soil In which It was grow
Ing, the experimenters have succeeded
In producing spinach containing a per-
centage Of iron seven times as great
as that found In ordinary spinach. It
is believed that the process will prove
successful with other ferruginous
plants.

SEXES CHANGE ATTIRE
PLACES WHERE WOMEN DRESS
As MEN, AND VICE VERSA.
Alpine Dairy Maids, at Their Work,
Wear Masculine Dress, az Do tho
Females In the Extreme North
-~Briaands In Skirts.

There are places In the world
where women dress In mems clothing
and men don womenD apparel.
Even in Paris there are women
dressed in cheap, coarse, masculine at.
tire, working as teamsters and day
laborers. While it is against the law,
the police wink at the fact and allow
them to arm peaceably their daily
wages.
In Persia, In some of the interior
parts, the women yea the s~trangest,
oldest tfouser garments. They seem
to like them, too, from the fact that
they cling to them in spite Of all eff
forts to make them don feminine at
tire.
Then there are the Alpine dairy
maids who dress as men when they
go about their work and look pretty,
If we are inclined to take evidence
from the numbers of men who yearly
persuade them to cast off their mas
culine dress and put on more cling
ing costumes. But then their eyes are
SO bright and their cheeks SO red that
they couldn't really look homely in
anything they might choose to wear.
Again, far in the north, where it is
freezing cold most of the time, and peo-
pie dress to be comfortable and not
to look pretty, the women are actual
ly forced into trousers to keep warm.
The ancient women warriors always
wore trousers. But their reasons were
half masculine in manner and appear
ance, and dressed to accentuate their
qualities. They had to make them
selves into fierce looking creatures to
terrify the men on the opposing side,
and from all accounts they succeeded
admirably.
AS for the stronger sex, there still
seem to be men in existence who
wear women's garb and enjoy 1t. In
certain parts of Greece, Spain, and
Albania there are bands of desperate
brigands who, when they are decked
out for attacks IN strangers or neigh
bors, look for all the world like grand
opera ballet girls, in their short,
brightly colored skirts, which are
made very full, and sometimes even
ruf1ed a bit. They seem tremendous
ly proud of their attire, and rival
bands strive to surpass each other IN
vividness Of patterns and newness OF
styles.

All efforts to defeat the pro-
gram of President Wilson and
the democratic majority of Con-
gress on the question of the tar
if have so far failed. The wool
growers yielded to the program
with more grace when wool was
placed ON the free list than did
our Louisiana neighbors who
have fought free sugar. The
latter were given three years in
which to prepare for free sugar
while the wool growers were
sheared before the spring fairly
opened up. Just why sugar
should not be placed on the free
list none of it's advocates have
been able to explain. The indus
try is as old almost as the gov
eminent and cannot be classed
as one of our infant industries.
1t is an article that goes into
daily use in every household and
the great mass of consumers
should not be made to pay a pro.
tective tariff for a handful Of
sugar growers in Louisiana ano

run independent of them, should
not be taxed. There should be

AUTHORITIES MAKE MISTAKE

AUTHORITIES MAKE MISTAKE
The action of the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen in making
a reservation for a grass plat on
Broadway just opposite Court
Square is a mistake. The bust
ness of the town is such that at
this particular point the entire
street is needed. It is well
enough to improve our streets.
they need it badly and the town
is behind the movement .heart
and hand. But we cannot sacrl-
flee the business interest OF the
town in order that all our streets
may be made beautiful. The
business of all country towns the
size of Tupelo comes from the
farms of the country. These
people come to town with their
wagons, teams and other vehic-
les and it is necessary for them
to have places where these can
be hitched and left.
Unfortunately Tupelo failed to
secure a good hitching ground
for the customers of the town
before prices of nearby property
got too high. This being the
case our farmers are left to Sc
lect their own stopping and
hitching places. The town. it is
true, has recently purchased a
lot east of the Mobile & Ohio
railroad for a hitchtng ground.
This is all right and convenient
for the men who come from the
east, but the man who comes
from the north. west or south
has to make a bad and danger
Gus crossing of the Mobile & Ohio
railroad track to get to the
hitching ground.
The merchants are anxious for
their customers to get IN as near
them as possible, this is neces-
sary for the convenience OF
marketing farm products and
loading the supplies that are
hauled out. The farmer should
be put to as little inconvenience
as possible. We invite them
here to do business with us and
building good roads for them to
come in on in greater numbers.
We want them, we need them
and the more of them the better.
There is a smile on the faces OF
the people in town when they
come and a frown when they go
elsewhere. So we should make
their coming as agreeable as
possible.
Now, it is true we are putting
on some city airs; this is right
and proper, but in doing this let
US not forget that our business
comes from the country and to
maintain the town we must have
it. In a city the size of Men,
phis vehicles and automobiles are
not allowed to stand longer than
a limited time on the streets.
On Broadway New York, the
pedestrian is not allowed to stop
and gaze in the show windows.
But these are cities congested
with travel and it is proper to
make the people move on. mere
we cannot do it. We must not
take steps to shut out those con-
veniences to which the people
are entitled and to which they
have always been accustomed.
This plat may be used for a
limited time to beautify Broad
way at the point it is laid, but
within a short time the business
men of the place will demand
that it is removed and laid with
concrete to accommodate the bus
mess that comes here.

Caring for Brood Mares
The Time for Foaline Is Now
Drawing Near


The season of the year is again
here when we are looking forward
with some anxiety to the crop of foals
that Will be produced. Many mares
have been bred during the past year,
and the price of horses has warrant
ed the best of attention to in-foal
mares. Whether they have received
this attention or not will soon be evil
dent by the results that are obtained.
The mares that are expected to pro-
duce foals within the next two or
three months should by all means
have exercise as regularly as they
have had during the winter, but
should not be called upon to make
extraordinary exertions. Neither
should they be subjected to a radical
change of feed. With ordinary work
and ordinary feed they ought to ap-
proach. their foaling time in good
thrift. 1t is well, perhaps, that they
be allowed a week or SO, prior to
foaling, out of the harness. During
that time they should have plenty of
exercise and not be turned in lots or
pastures with fighting colts and kick
ing mares. Just before foaling the
feed should be reduced in quantity
and should consist largely of bran,
some oats and good hay.

The dreaded navel disease takes
many thousands of foals every year.
1t should be prevented whenever pos
sible. Since navel disease is caused
by infection, absolute cleanliness and
disinfection is the best means of pre-
vention. If mares are to foal on
grass then the chances are decreased.
If they are to foal in barns, disinfec-
ton of the stalls with some strong
d~isinfectant, clean bedding and plenty
of sunlight and fresh air are absolute
ly essential. By such means of pre-
v~ention the loss has been greatly re
duced.
After foals are born and are able to
stand and nurse, the probabilities Of
their death are greatly reduced. A
very small percentage of the foals
which die are lost after they are a
week old. The Importance of giving
mares proper food and exercise and
other necessary attention at the time
of foaling is easily seen.
1t has been found practical to al
low mares to rest from n week to a
month after the birth of their foals.
They may then be well put to work,
but should not be expected to nurse
their foals and do as much work as
an aged mule or gelding. When they
