An aged ana mucn Travelled tourist
was relating experiences OF his travels
TO group of friends when a blatant
young man. who had himself made a
short trip through Europe, decided that
ii was about time to come in for his
share Of honors as 4 great traveller.
When | made my trip through the
Red sea-" the young man intericcted,
we dropped anchor one night in the
exact spot where Pharaoh's hosts were
engufed by the waters Of the Red sea
In the morning when we heaved up
he anchor we discovered that one Of
Nllraohs chariots. which had for
years been lying at the bottom of the
sea, was hooked on TO one of the flukes
Of our anchor 1t was in an excellent
state of preservation" How did you
know it was one of Pharaoh's chariots
and not one of more recent vintage?"
inquired the old tourist. "oh, that was
easy" replied the noisy young man.
4'You see, in one corner Of the chariot
we found an Old coin which bore the
description, zoos L. CT"

FORAGE CROPS.

A reader of these notes living in In
diana makes Inquiry in regard to the
feeding and nutritiye value of field
peas as compared with the common
English or garden peas; also what va
riety, if any. natures in time 10 plant
late potatoes on the same ground.
From the standpoint of nutrltive value
as feeds and as rcnovators of the soil
there is not ii great deal of difference
between common garden peas, Canadi-
an field peas and cowpeas All are
legumcs, soil builders and renoyators.
However. there is one difference be-
tween two of the peas mentioned that
it is well to keep in mind. The Cana
dian field pea is cold weather plant
and may be sown the latter part of
April Experiments show that they
may he "hogged down rs early rs the
middle of July. The so called cowpea
is not really pea at all, but bean.
and is 4 warm weather plant. IT
should he sowed mt or shortly after
corn planting time. In the latitude in
which our correspondent lives-i2 de-
grees, near the Michigan line-the cow
pea might give better results than in
the section where the writer lives.
Here rape has given better results
than either Canadian peas or cowpeaS
as hogging down proposition. The
variety of Canadian field peas which
have given best results in experiments
conducted by the Iowa station is
known as the White, and about three
bushels are sown 70 the acre. the peas
costing usually about 500 per bushel.
Rape is extremely hardy and may be
sown with the early oats or by itself
rs soon as the ground is warm
enough for any seeding. The Dwarf
Essex is very satisfactory, aud about
three pounds of seed are sown TO the
acre. Best results will be secured if
the soil is rich and put in the best Of
filth before the seed is sown. If our
correspondent wants 10 plant potatoes
later in the season on the ground occu-
pied by his forage crop he would have
to SOW either rape or the Canada peas.

a contributor 10 4 recent issue OF
Farm and I'ireside gives an interesting
comparison between the financial 10
turns received by a farmer from his
agricultural operations and by his
daughter from her poultry. During the
first year when an accurate account OF
receipts and expenditures was kept the
daughter made a profit of $500 after
paying every expense and building five
new colony houses Her fathers profits
from his farming operations We're less
than 5000, this Notwithstanding the
fact that her Investment was but $500,
while his was $4,000. The second year
her profits were $3.50 and fathers less
than 500, while the last years cost
sheet showed that the daughters profits
We're S400 and her fathers loss on his
operations about 5000. 1t is apparent
from these figures that this showing
would have been reversed had the
daughter been the farmer and the
farmer and father the poultry keeper.

PLAYED BALL IN BENNINGTON
Three Big League Pitchers Who "Got
Their Bumps" on Wednesday


Three big league baseball pitchers
who have been seen in action on Ben
nington diamonds, worked for their
teams in Wednesdays games and all
three of them were badly used by the
opposing batters. McHale, who dur
ing the first year OF professional ball
in Bennington pitched for Pittsfeld
and was seen in action at Tudor
park, started the game for the New
York Americans against Chicago. He
was hit four times in 1 10 innings
and retired in favor of Cottrell who
when a student at Syracuse univers-
ity pitched losing game for Hoosick
Falls one Saturday afternoon at Nor
gan park in 1911 The Chicago team
made IA hits off Cottrell during the
remainder OF the game and won 10
to 0.
Ray Collins, the former Vermont
pitcher, who helped Bennington to
subdue Hoosick Falls at Morgan
park five years ago, pitched less than
three innings for the Boston Ameri-
cans and during this period was hit
for four safe swats and gave as many
free tickets Detroit won from Bos-
ton 10 to 0.
