100 Years Ago Today

y NE HUNDRED years ago today,
following NaPoIeOn's unexpected
~ attack on Blucher's corps at
Brienne. in which Butcher narrowly es-
capped being made a prisoner, saw con
tinuation Of the desperate efforts OF the
French army to halt the advance Of the
allies on Paris. The flames Of the city
of Brienne, in which Napoleon had re-
ceived his first military lessons, faeill-
tated Blucher's withdrawal of his troops
in good order. Napoleon neglected to
pursue him on the 50th of January, and
Butcher, reinforced by the crown prince
of Nurtemberg and Uy marshal Wrede,
attacked him at La Rothiere. Here the
allies found that the French people, not
withstanding their immense misfortunes,
still remained true to Napoleon, and
were ready to flock anew beneath the
imperial eagle for the defence OF their
native soil

Moscow
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author of cat Good Old sivvash."

NJ OSCOW, the understudy of St.
W Petersburg as capital of the
Russian empire, is as large as
Philadelphia and resembles that city as
closely as whiskers resemble Dutch
cheese.
Moscow is so foreign, in fact. that the
moving picture show has scarcely OBJ
tanned fOothold there, and the horse
still completes successfully with the au-
tomObile.
Moscow lies on the banks of the river
Mos1va, which wanders through the city
at will in the springtime and is connect
ed with st. Petersburg, 400 miles north,
by the night express which is four
hours late. Viewed from distance the
city looks like a gigantic turnip patch
bottom side up. This is an optical illu-
sion, however, as the turnips are merely
church spires. There are more churches
in Moscow than there are cabaTets in
New York, but their effect upon the
civilization OF the city does not seem
to be quite so good.
Moscow is profusely afflicted with old
cobblestone paving, and a trip through
the city in a drosky behind a lean horse
with a tall gothic collar IS as interesting
as a trip down the COnev Island bump
the-bumps. The citizens, Judged from
the streets, seem to be composed equally
of priests, soldiers and long-bearded men
in fur-lined dressing gowns. 1t is not
up to date, but it has managed to ac-
emulate its million of people and
enough manufacturers to keep them
busy without a commercial club, which
is better than any American city can
do.
Moscow is 800 years old and was once
the capital OF Russia. but owing to the
difficulty Of moving the Baltic sea into
the city it lost its job 200 years ago,

SAVE THE MOISTURE
LENCTHEN OUR SEASON

Only asfew days after rain we are
in need of more moisture. The dust
flies and the leaves wilt. Older. Sec
tions have learned that they must save
this moisture by proper cultivation.
Even in the sections where drought is
unknown thsyImust take pains to keep
the moisture from evaporating so fast.
In our soil moisture passes off rapidly
When the leaves wilt only ever so
slightly it shows us that growth is
stunted. We can therefore get more
growth and practically lengthen our
season by keeping the plant going all
the time. 1t has been found in the
corn sections that they can make the
corn ripen at least week earlier by
cultivaiing early and often. The same
will surely be true for us. Often our
potatoes do not get ripe and we have
to take a poorer price as result.
We can harrow our potato field be-
fore the plants are up and make a
layer of loose soil on top which acts as
blanket to hold the soil moisture.
This SO called dust mulch will pay for
the time used in cultivation manr
times in season. With our corn let us
get close to the hill and fairly deep and
then each time as we cultivate later we
work little shallower and farther
from the plants. 1t is the shallow work
which leaves tht valuable dust mulch
JFo leave the ground as smooth as posi-
BILE and keep the dust Blanket then,
are our greatest needs at present with
the soil.

GETTING BETTER COWS
FOR THE NORTH COUNTRY
Various Communities Awake to the
Benefits Coming From Better
Stock.

During recent months therein been
a greater interest in the upper Wiscon
sin counties than ever before in the
matter of scouting better cows and more
of them for the farmers. In that por-
ton of the state until recently most OF
the settlers have been people of very
small means. They have been assisted
in getting stock by local business men,
bankers and land companies. But now
the demand is getting beyond the abil-
ity of individuals to supply, which
makes it essential that there should be
a more organized plan for the supply.
In practically every county organi-
cations have been perfected for getting
cows. In recent weeks carload lots
have been shipped into Marinette,
Langlade, Oneida, Rusk, Douglas and
perhaps other counties. Most of these
COWS are secured in the southern Wis
coasin counties. The new north is
thoroughly awake to the situation, and
outside buy ers of Wisconsin's good cows
will find a warm competition in the
future.
