CAUSE OF FouRLEAvED GLOVER.

= 1NCE a four r-leaved clover is said
= to be "lucky," it might be well
to known how it happens that
while most clover has only three leaves,
one is found now and then with four.
According to j. Perriraz, who dis
cusses the question in the Archives des
Sciences Physiques ct Naturelles, Glow
ers with more than three leaves are due
to two causes-one hereditary, the
other nutritive. After a moist season
clover plants with four or even five,
six or seven leaves are relatively com
mon, and plants with only two leaves
are also seen at such times, but these
are very rare.
But some are abnormal by heredity
and reproduce themselves with the same
characteristics in successive years when
their environment remains the same,
external influences merely modifying
the size of the leaves.

CowPEAs AS FOOD FOR MAN.

AOWPEAS are particularly well suit
~ ed for use in localities where they
will mature crops, and both their
nutritive value and cneapness, as well
as their good flavor and the numerous
ways in which they can be used should
recommend them to the housewife.
Though favorably known as staple
food in the southern states, the cowpea
has not come into general use through
out the United States. 1t is well worth
greatly extended use as it is whole
some, nutritious and possesses peculiar
delicate and pleasing flavor. Cowpeas
are used on the table in three forms
In the pod, shelled green and shelled
dried. In tese three forms they CORE
spond respectively to string beans,
shelled green peas and dried navy beans,
and call for much the same methods of
preparation for the table.

one were to Judge by the finished product
that has been placed on The market Tho
receipts from a good sugar season swell
the total income of the Vermont farm to
a marked degree and put the farmer a

over, much of the receipts comes from
outside the borders of the State. inaSmuch

the farmers will bend every energy to

THE MEXICAN QUESTION.
Cannot he Understood by Casual OBJ
scrNatiOn or Reading.

To one Of the largest and most inter-
ested audiences of men this year at a
Young Mems Christian association Sun
day meeting Sunday afternoon, a. T.
Turner, formerly general secretary of
the Young Mems Christian association in
Monterey, Mexico, gave a we'll illustrated
stereopticon address on Mexico" lie
demonstrated the impossbility of the
American people understanding the MeXi-
can question by casual observation, read
ing or study.
The first impression one gets Of Mexico
is that everything there is just the
opposite of things at home. When an
American builds house, for instance,
he generally places the house in the
middle of his land or garden, but in
Mexico the builder places his house
around the garden. SO general IS this
impression that an American boy rushed
in with the news one day that he had at
last found one thing that MeXicans did
that was done rs Americans do and that
was when he saw them digging a hole
| from the top downward
The impression that Mexico has great
mineral wealth is ~orrect. but people
generally fail to note that its agricultural
wealth exceeds It's mineral. Three crops
of grain per year are common. But for
all its abundant wealth a few people,
proportionately, own all, and 10 of the
IL millions of the population can be said
! in all truth daily to go to bed hungry
on the mud floors OF their huts. There

Through eight years OF service in

Gals OF the country greatly Interested
and personally generous in support Of
the associations efforts to upift. This
was uniformly true of successive changes
in administration. the neutral position Of
the association in political matters keep

EVANS ON SUPERSTTTIONS.

Many a fan has seen Eddie Collins, sec

To the despair OF the batboy, Collins some-
