"RETURNlNG" TO AFRICA,

The Richmond, (Va.) Reformer
speaks Of the colored people return
ing to Africa" Returning" is not the
proper word; it should be gong"
The people who are going to Africa
are possibly descendants of Africans
who were brought here against their
wills hundred years ago or more.
The Afro-Americans who have start
ed for Africa are poor deluded crea-
lures who have been imposed upon by
scoundrels of the Chief Sam ilk. They
will sup sorrow by the ladle full.
Africa is not the place to go in order
to better ones condition unless the
immigrant is a white man.
An Afro-American with little CAPT
tai who wishes to really improve his
condition should go to Brazil In that
country he will find no color line and
his advancement will be limited only
by his own capabilities.

Such birds have the build for fine

Difference In Horses,

DIR. \. $. Alexander, the we'll known
veterinarian connected with the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, puts the differ
ence in value between Il mature horse
sired by a grade stallion and one sired
by a pure bred stallion ut 500. On
this basis he puts the loss to the horse
raisers of Wisconsin at S., 100, 600 on
the colts sired by the LOO grade stall
lions in service last year. If DIR. Alex
ander's estimates are well founded It
means a big loss to the farmers of the
state as Il result of Il penny, wise.

WHALES SCARED C0LoNlsTS.
In 1916 They We're Seen In the North
River and Caused CONSERVATION.

In 1646 They Were Seen In the North
River and Caused CONSERVATION.
In 164G the colony Of Rensselaers.
wlJk had a very hard winter Of it in
deed. On the 18th of November the
North river was closed and remained
frozen for four months. A very high
freshet followed, which DESTROYED a
NUMBER of houses in the vicinity, near
~ carried away the fort and inflicted
considerable damage in the colony.
This. however, was not an unusual
thing to the %colonists, who in Holland
had been accustomed to equally hard
winters. Much worse was the appear
ance of a sea monster that they had
never seen in their native country.
AT the same time as the freshet."
says Antonio de Hooges, secretary of
Rensselaerswijk, there appeared be-
fore us a certain fish of considerable
size, snow white in color, round in the
body and blowing water out of his
head. What it portended God the Lord
only knew. At the same instant this
fish appeared we had the first thunder
n lightning this year." The public
establishment had scarcely subsidized
when another monster was seen, esti-
mated at forty feet in length, Of a
brown color, having fins in his back
and ejecting water high in the air."
This fish (which had first assembled
the river (the North river stranded on
his return to sea on an island some
forty miles from the mouth Of the
river, near which place four others
grounded this year."
This island goes since by the name Of
Walvisch or Whale island.-Gazette de
Hollapde.

Troublesome Crab Grass.

The troublesome crab grass, which
Is doubly so because it is deep rooted
and tlourishcs in dry weather when
most other vegetation is ut Il standstill,
Is fortunately only an annual and does
not live over the winter. Last season
the writer found he could control it
nicely in his patch of sweet corn by
cleaning the field of it when the corn
was between waist and shoulder high.
The ground was SO completely shaded
and the moisture so completely alb
sorbed by the corn roots that the grass
had no chance. In the potato and bean
patch it is necessary to keep the ground
clean and prevent it from going to seed.
