GEORGE WASHINGTON.
written by Boyce White, a pupil
in the Gault School.)

George Washington was born in
Virginia on Feb. 22nd, 1892. His
father died when he was quite young
and he was left in the care of his
mother.
His educational advantages were
poor, however, he learned what he
could at home and at a neighborhood
school. From one of his old copy
books the following rules of learning
were copied:
"Undertake not what you cannot
perform, but be careful to keep your
promise" Labor to keep alive in
your breast that little spark of celes-
tial fire called conscience"
George was fond of all kinds of
athletic sports, and was what we
term j. "ring leader
On account of his truthfulness he
won the confidence of all of his class
mates and was often called upon to
settle their little disputes, and as we
all know, it has often been said that
washington could never tell lie."
At the age of fourteen he grew
tired of quiet school life and would
have become soldier had his mother
not persuaded him to remain at
home.
When the French and Indian war
broke out he, though only twenty -one,
was made general Of the Virginia
militia. His military skill having
been proved in this war he was chosen
commander-in-ch of the American
army in the Revolutionary war.
Showers of honors had been heaped
upon the great commander up to this
time, but his greatest honor was pro-
claimed when in 1889 he was made
first president of the United States.
He served two terms after which he
retired to private life at Mount Ver-
non.
The great Virginian, said by Henry
Lee to be First in war, first in
peace, and first in the hearts of his
countrymen," passed away on Decem-
ber 18th, 1899.

ing sprouts, cleaning out bitches,
making new ones, opening up fertile,
but now idle spots of land, sowing
spring oats, remodeling terraces,
stopping washes, etc, and improving
the whole face of the earth az IL lies
within our ability to do. Now, while
we are on the terrace and gully stop,
ping subject, would like to say that
l have a new plan of fixing terraces
and stopping washes or low places,
raising them up-or at least if any
one else is doing this it has not been
brought to my notice. In making ter
races 1 lay them off with home
made level, which is as accurate as
any could get, and I do not make
so many sharp curves around ridge,
nor sharp points up little washed
out gully-like places. / go over the
ridge in a manner that I will not
have to get too deep into the ground
to get level, then I bank up across
the swags or dips, sufficient to hold
the water level, and in blowing, go
up and down over the ridge and out
of the dip if not too out of level, and
if the terraces are attended to prop
erly you can be lowering the ridge
and raising the dip, and leveling the
face of the field. Now understand
me, if the field consists of wide, curv-
ing ridges, or valleys not sharp, I
go on the level. Now as to those
dips, if you cut long logs from eight
inches, or even larger in size, and
rather long and put them across the
swags or dips put small brush un-
der them and they to be from ten to
fifteen feet apart, all of the washings
fro mthe field coming down will catch
at these, and when it is filled up to
the top of the log, or the log rots,
put another midway between these;
take out the pieces of logs of the old
ones and plow over them, an dso on.
lis pole plan is the best ever for
those broad washed places where it
it hard to stop by putting in brush
alone every year. Now in the not
too big swags, with the log and
brush plan you can let the water flow
right on. The logs and few small
brush under them prevents a gully
from washing; the logs should reach
far enough out for water 20 run
around the ends, and they take up
too narrow strip not to plow there,
and the swag keeps on being raised,
and after awhile you can have it so
raised that it is easy to terrace
across this swag on a straight line.
On this plan, if you put the poles be-
tween the terrace lines, if a row of
any truck strikes about the end of
them, it is easy to pick up the plow
and carry it across to the other end.
Between the poles which are to be
only three or five rows apart, plant
right on. Every broad, shallow wash
or sink should have small poles
placed on this style, and they will
sure work we'll. I am in love with
my plan because it is my ideal, to
date, on cheap order, but some one
may come along and show me bet
ter one, or may find better one
myself. like to work at building up
land. There is nothing that is much
more fascinating to me, and, making

Ncw York Looks To
Tariff To Reduce It's
Grocery and Meat Bills

New York. Oct. 1S.-New York is
watching with intense interest the eff
feet of the new tariff bill in the
promised reduction in the cost of living.
That the people in this city have
large stake in the matter is shown by
the fact that the city's annual food
bill amounts to over S645. 000. 600 and
that the largest items in this total are
products on which duties have been re-
moved by the Underwood
bill.
If cheaper beef results from the
free-listing of this article. for instance.
it viii make an appreciable difference
in New York's meat bill. which now
amounts to $4,000. 600. with yearly
consumption of $4,000. 900 pounds
Other products on which the t1riff
rates have been changed and which
figure for large sums in the yearly
budget of New Workers are sugar.
400,000,000 pounds; eggs. 15O.00O.00O
dozen; potatoes. $50. 600. 900 pounds and
bread. 100000 900 loaves. It is doubt
full if any previous tariff bill ever pos
sessed so direct interest for the people
of this city. or was weighted with such
vast political possibilities.

MEXICAN DEPUTIES
 SAVED BY WOMAN

stern by the soldiers but when they came to the cabin where stood the re.olute American woman she refused to allow the door to be opened claiming the international right of all diploma tic officers and their families to the courtesy of the port and freedom from search. The Mexican soldiers were in doubt as to their authority and sent for their commanding officer and at the same time Mrs. Lind asked the captain of the Moro Castle to come to her assistance. The Mexican oficer was inclined to search the state room fin spite of Mrs. Lind's protest but when the captain of the ship arrived on the scene he informed the oficer that as the wife of the American diplo- matic agent Mrs Lind was beyond the reach of the Mexican law and threat ened to call upon the captain of the United States gunboat for protection if an attempt was made to invade the lady's cabin.
 The Mexican ofiicial did not care to take the chance with the result that Mrs. Lind was instrumental in saving at least two lives.
