CRYSTALS Of Vitality Save Lives.

About ten years ago Japanese re-
searcher. Takamine, in the laboratory
Of Columbia university, made the dis
.overy that a certain substance, Sc
,reted by gland of the OK or sheep,
when injected into the blood of other
,nimals, had the power Of greatly in
.reasing their blood pressure and con-
,equently their vitality. He called this
substance adrenalin and succeeded in
'efining 1t to light yellow crystals.
When the suprarenal glands which Sc
:rete this substance were removed by
IN operation from the living animals,
hey Invariably died, showing that 1t
was necessary to the life Of the ami
nails. However, only small quantities
ire needed by the animal, and hence
,ut little is secreted by the glands.
md then only in very weak condition,
being mixed with other substances.
The crystals are pure and have ex-
remely great power. One part of the
adrenalin dissolved in 100000 parts of
water is strong and capable Of per
forming miracles. In fact, one-halt
.himbleful, or about that much, has
been used in hospitals all over the
country, time and time again, to en-
able a man to pass crisis when his
natural strength would have failed
him. Hundreds of men and women
can thank adrenalin for their lives.

Makes for Smooth Existence.

There is good deal said about the
loss of individuality, a loss when real
which we all deplore, but man is
more likely to keep his individuality,
with his life, If he follows in his mo-
tor the formulated lines of traffic
rather than meet another man in his
motor on the wrong side of the road.
II both men happened to be in civic
parade there would be no loss of in
dividuality to the man who kept his
place behind instead of driving out
from his place in order to get farther
ahead of the man behind him, or in
order to slip in ahead Of the one
ahead of him. Keeping in line means
simple thing often, but 1t is one
of the trifles that make for perfect
ly smooth existence.
There are seeming restrictions in
life that hamper, but there are great
many others that forward. 1t is easy
to understand the gains when compli'
ance of purely mechanical sort-but
very necessary-has been made. By
reasoning from their analogy we may
find out to our advantage that there
are many others less tangible, a com
pliance with which would do wonders
in making the world go round, and in
making ourselves the happiest and
most successful people.

mechanical Horsen Used Ahroad

A real mechanical horse" is being
experimental with abroad. 1t is a
tractor" that is easily hitched to any
horse-drawn vehicle, just as a team of
horses may be, and combines all the
advantages Of the horse with those of
the auto truck at an exceedingly low
price. The outfit comprises a steel
bar and coupler and sprocket wheels
designed to be attached to the wheels
and tongue Of the wagon. There is
only one wheel on the HORSE" and
that is at the front, the most of the
support for the tractor depending
upon the front wagon wheels by which
it is driven. The engine, mounted un-
der the front hood as in an automo-
bile. is of forty or fifty horsepower,
and drives the wagon at a speed OF
from eight to thirty miles an hour the
latter speed only being used when it
is designed for fire engine service.
The front wheel is used to steer by.
and it allows a turn being made at an
angle of eighty-five degrees, thus Civ
ing remarkable turning ability in mar
row streets. One of the greatest ad,
vantagcs of the mechanical horse"
is the fact that it may be kept con-
stantly ar work while unloading or

Beauty Of Youth.

What an unbearable world 1t would
be if we were all sent into it full
grown. Just think of it! What a
grand institution youth is, and not
only our youth, but the youth of ev.
erything-the young leaves, the tiny
blossoms, the inimitable green of the
growing grass, the merry foals, and
calves and lambs in the field, the
downy little ducklings and the neat
little chicks; what an enormous source
Of pleasure would be absent without
all these. We all keep one special
corner of our hearts for what is small,
and young-the very softest corner.

HAPPY MARRIED LIFE
LIVES OF MEN OF NOTE BRIGHT
ENED BY WEDLoCk.
Numerous Instances Where Loving
Wives Have Added to the Attrac-
tions Which Earth Has Offered
to Her Gifted Sons.

When Frederick Morel, the writer.
was told that his wife was at the
point OF death, he did not throw down
his pen, but remarked:
Il am very sorry. She was good
woman"

said Montaigne, Il would not have
married Wisdom herself"
But in spite of these and numerous
other instances, there have been men
of literature who could write of con-
jugal fruition from an experience
extending through unclouded, beauti-
full years.
Sir Walter Scott, in his marriage re-
lations, was happy, and Southey lived
in sweet peace, not only with his
first wife, but also with his second
Cowper enjoyed matrimony, and
Moore was happily mated, and Shell

trance upon a joyous period of domes-
tic life.
Wordsworth had many years OF
gladness with his wife, and Prof. Will

his wife, continued to be under the
illusions of the wedding day till the
lady died, in her sixty-fourth year"

Numa had sweet wife of the name
of Titia, who was partaker of his
retirement and preferred the calm en-.
joyment of life with her husband in
privacy, to the honors and distinction
In which she might have lived with
her father at Rome"
There was Plutarch, also, whose
days in marriage were all of the
brightest. He named his only daueh

his fond admiration of and his ten.

Possum Paradise.

Loris is the nasve heath of the
opossum. Nowhere else does he
abound so plentifully or thrive SO
well. 1t is here that the Georgia peo-
pie get their fine specimens when they
wish to entertain President Taft at a
possum dinner Folks come from
North Carolina here to hunt them,
and our market supplies Delmonico's
and St. Regis and many other famous
caravansaries.
AS the canvasback duck and the dia-
mondback terrapin are to Baltimore.
80 is the possum to Loris. The Mary
land duck feeds on wild celery, which
grows on the flats of the headwaters
of the Chesapeake bay. 1t is this that
gives them their fine favor, just as
peanuts and acorns favor the razor
back hog and produce the Smithfield
ham.
The Loris possum feeds on chick
ems, nice young fat chickens, such as
only Loris has, and many of them are

Of litmus paper. II you find horse

calcium; also, II clovers do not grow

By the use of litmus papers, which

whether your soil is acid. Take a
small quantity of moist soil and press
It around the paper for ten or fifteen
minutes. II the blue paper is turned
to a pinkish or reddish color, It will
indicate that your soil is acid and an
application of lime will be beneficial.
There are several Cat least ten) forms
of commercial lime on the market.
The best form to use Is finely ground
limestone. First: because it is cheap
est, and, second: the effect on the
humus is not so serious as with other
forms of lime-especially caustic or
quick lime. The action Of finely
ground limestone in its attack on the
vegetable matter is less noticeable
than with other forms of lime. The
amounts to apply depend on how badly
your soil requires calcium, and also
upon the available supply of lime
stone. We have known of instances
where AS high as eight tons have been
applied to the acre with good results,
and as low as ton or ton and half
has been used very satisfactorily.
The usual amount varies from three
to six tons to the acre. This material
should be supplied to the surface after
the seed bed is prepared, and narrowed
in by the use of peg-tooth or disk
harrow. II may be scattered by the
use of manure spreader in fact, this

SILAGE

At a farmers institute not long ago
the question was asked How many
housewives have silos? You can very
easily guess the nature of the replies
to this question, for none of those
present had much of an idea what a
silo really is. After a short eXplana-
one present in reality had silo of
some kind. Some of these were used
for saving fruits, corn. and others for
preserving cabbage for future use.
We don't really speak of these as
silos, but the effect on the saving Of
these beds when placed In jars is the
same as it is with corn when stored
in the silo: in other words, silage Is
green corn preserved by storing in an
air-tight structure.
There probably are very few farmer
boys that do not remember some rainy
day or evening when all hands got
busy preparing the cabbage to fill the
kraut jar. Probably no thought was
yearly task, and no one realized that
in effect the saving of the cabbage by
making it into kraut is the same as
making corn slage. 1t undoubtedly
served a good purpose in keeping the
family in a healthy condition during
the winter months when other green
food was not available. The same is
true of silage, which affords succu-
lent and nourishing feed for the live
stock.
There may be a question as to
whether all stock will eat the sour corn
silage, but give them chance and this
thought will be quickly dispelled. for
all stock eat silage very greedily, and
the returns in the form of milk and
meat will amply pay for all the trouble
and expense.
Yours very truly.
