EXPERIME?j -A.n. Interesting ? ta: vS;; -. ' .... ; . WASHINGTON, March 26.-' true," said Secretary Wilson i Department of Agriculture "tl are diverting part of the moe the distribution of seeds. Of t propr?ation of $130,000 we are : ing $71,000 for the distribut: seeds through Congressmen, ar remainder we are expending i own way. All seeds are not i -after distribution and the cont was paid accordingly. Now sea tested by our experts and 85 per -'.('must germinate or the seeds a . j?cted. This insures the reci] good seeds. Not only must the ^germinate but they are tested fe tility also. The seeds we are se: ; out through members of Congresi $ year are'the best the departmen ever handled. This distributic regarded by ?he members and th partaient as a very excellent t ?nd we are constantly trying t prove the system. t?But we are doing much more simply distributing common si T|The great country lying in the peratc zone and stretching from o to ocean has within its confines ali every condition of climate and It is possible, therefore, to gro highest perfection somewhere in United States almost eyerythin the world. We are trying to ascei what -particular parts of the Un States will grow certain grains, fi and vegetables, and to what parts #&tain -grains, etc., are particul adapted. We1 find for instance t the finest muskmelons sold in eastern markets come from the valleys of Colorado. There is, h .ever, in the valleys of Afghanis! perhaps the original home of melon, a muskmelon greatly supe |&^Te?.t6 those raised in the West. : to Afghanistan we sent our agent, i :\ returned us a quantity of seeds of , ?amou8 muskmelon, which often gr? to a weight of 20 or 30 pounds, ; these seeds we are sending to West this year. "Years ago" the calla lily was v rare and very expensive. Its plact \ the popular esteem was taken by beautiful Baster lily. Everyone Eastertime likes to see Easter lil ' about, but-they are expensive. 1 bulbs come from Bermuda, where i soil is very rich. But the product: '.. lof the. bulbs of these lilies, wh: grow so rapidly, exhausts the s< and, as the soil in Bermuda is X? thin, they will scarcely be able to p duce the lilies much longer. Th must have three things-a rich sc beat and water. So we have import 500 bulbs, .which we are distributi across the Southern . States. . Ari z o . and New Mexico got some for the ir gated portions. Texas received soi ' because of its . rich soil and abunda rainfall. Mississippi and Louisia also got some. We hope by ti means to find some place1 where tl I Easter lily, can be brought to perfe rion and. then the florists can do tl rest. The money now sent to Be muda for bulbs will be retained in th country, and everyone will be able have Easter lilies. "The Californians complained th? i^th?ir/ figtrees were like those in tl Bible which bore.no figs. They ha fine trees, fine flowers and very favo able conditions. - Everything was thei except the figs. Our scientists exan ined the situation carefully and deck ed that the trouble was that the polle was not reaching the female fiowei This was demonstrated by means o artificial fertilization. The pollen wa blown into the flowers by a blow-pipe and those flowers produced fruit. A: agent was sent to Smyrna to see hen the trees were fertilized and he foum a peculiar bee which lived among th figtress and carried the pollen fron flower to flower by means of its hair: legs. The people of Smyrna did no ; want to let any of these legs go out o: the country, but our agent brough; Borne sway on twigs. Unfortunately they were dead before they reached U? and some more will have to be obtain ed. "On the shores of the Mediterran ean, in Algiers, is a branch of this department. We find that the date palm flourishes in Arizona, so oui agent in Algiers has had the date palm grafted and planted, and when the young trees are ready to be remov od he will take them up and carry them to Arizona, and vre will produce our own dates. "Some years ago there were no beet sugar factories. Now there are a large number, but not nearly enough to sup ply the country with sugar. We ex perimented until we found where the best sugar beets could be raised, and then we induced the farmers to plant the beets and the manufacturers to build the factories. As a result, we are turni?g out hundreds of .tODS of sugar and keeping thousands of dol lars at home. Across the northern row of States Tve ?au the Les: sugar beet country of the United States. WITH SEEDS. ment Made by Se ere hilson. bric Sun. Northern New York, Northern Indi ana, Ohio, Michigan, etc., are all adapted to the culture. To provide them with the best of seed we have imported twelve tons, now in New York. This seed was purchased from the best growers in France and Ger many. There the beets are carefully selected according to saccharine mat ter, and those containing the highest percentage are selected to bear seed. First the seed is planted, then comes the beet. This seed is again examin ed, and that which contains the high est percentage of sweetness is planted. That year they get the beet. The next year the beet is planted and they get the seed. It is this seed which we have purchased. ;tTo ascertain the best grain for our Northern States and to procure the most hardy seeds, we have an agent in Southern Russia who is going among the farmers asking: What is your best grain? How do you plant it? .Which is the hardiest variety? He will send us the wheat which they use and other grains. The westerners complained they, had no grass that could stand the drought, so we sent to the steppes of Russia and got some of that grass. Here is a sample .of grass that was green after six months of dry weather, and wheo the rain eame in sprang up to two feet or more. It is in this manner we are utilizing the seed appropriation." , Should Married Women Follow Pro fessions % The author of "Heavenly Twins" responds very sagely: It is argued I know, that a woman may order her household excellently and follow a profession as well. Many ; women do. But it seems to. me that the question is not so much wfct wo men can do when they are driven to it, but what they ought in fairness to be asked to do. If you take marriage from the lowest standpoint, that of a profession in itself, you will find your self forced to consider the strain of following two professions at the same time. No man is ever expected to do ?o. This is one of the great causes of complaint that women have had, that if they- do anything they are expected to do everything. Numbers have at tempted the task-borne the children, brought them up, administered the household and made the money-each and every duty was punctually per formed; but how many such women, and of those how many that wefe not utter wrecks, have survived to old age? I tried for many years to combine housekeeping and literary pursuits, and managed both, but' at infinite cost. My health, household and literary work all suffered; and it was not until circumstances put it in my power to give myself up entirely to literature that I succeeeded. .The question of professions for mar ried women is usually a question of means; although, when money is sorely wanted, there can be no real question in the matter-the one of the family who can make it must make it. And therefore when one is asked, should married women follow profes sions? one is forced to allow that it depends, and fain to add, not if they can help it. But if it be the woman who must work-, let her have her chance as the men would have, let her go to her work unhampered by other cares. In France, where it is the rule for married women to Work, the children undoubtedly "snSer-suffer grievously. I have studied the subject on the spot, and been forced to the conclu sion that when there are children they should be the first consideration, and the parents are both bound to sacri fice themselves for their good. Ex actly what will be for the good of the children will often be a very nice question', and it is essentially one of those upon which it is impossible to lay dowD any hard and fast rules. But being conscientious aud unselfish will be found a great help when it be comes necessary to arrive at a decision in the matter. A woman should have the same chance iu the professions as a man. But a woman's work about the house is never-ending; the care of a child is the sweetest of professions; and that woman is neglectful of her best inter ests who goes out into the world to work when she can find a nice man to do the work for her.-Sarah Grand, in Thc Gentlewoman for April. - ^ > ? - - A woman's taste ia purchasing neckties for her huscand is on a par with a man's taste in purchasing bon nets for his wife.

Hamp ton's residence, about two miles from the city, was totally destroyed by fire this-morning about 3 o'clock, anda large portion of its contents were lost. The fire may have been of incendiary origin, but that is only a suspicion now. It began near the kitchen, and it is possible it may have caught from a defective chimney. Gen. Hampton has been quite feeble lately, and at the time of the dis covery of the fire he was awake, being sleepless. He first found the fire, be lieving, however, that the light he saw was the break of day. But feel ing the heat he managed to hobble to the door, when he beheld one end of the building wrapped in flames. The household was aroused at once, and negroes living on the place were got ten out of their beds. They first bore the General out of the house and placed him on a chair a safe distance away, where he saw the fire destroy his home and many of his valuable papers, books and relics. Many of the neighbors were aroused and they all rendered what assistance they could, but it was evident from the beginning that the house was doomed. Much of the furniture and other household fixtures were saved. But the fire spread so rapidly that many of the valuables could not be rescued. The General possessed a magnificent library, some of the vol umes being very rare, out of print and not procurable. Some pf these were lost, besides many others, possessing peculiar value from association. In all there were about 6,000 volumes, ..about 4,000 of which were saved, a portion of them, luckily, being in a building close to the dwelling, hut which was preserved from destruction. In a desk Gen. Hampton kept many valuable papers of a personal and his torical character. This desk went up in smoke, and the loss of the papers is irreparable. He had an English saddle of a peculiar make which he used throughout the war, and which he highly prized. This was lost. A large portion of the family silver was destroyed also. The family jewels, of which there wa3 a large collection, and which were kept in a big, stout trunk, passed through the fire, but they were saved from total loss, as the. bucket brigade was instructed to throw as much water as possible on the walls of the building where the trunk was kept. There was not a cent of insurance, and the monetary loss to the old warrior is a serious one, not to con sider the loss of valuable relics col lected during his long career. Twice within the recent past has the house been on fire in almost the same place, and once the fire was ex extinguished by the General himself, who, though 81 years old, climbed to the roof. The building was of only onestory, Many pleasant associations clustered about it. Gen. Hampton has removed to a small house on the premises until other arrangements can be made. When seen this morning the Gene ral appeared to bear his loss with re signation, and was as cheerful as pos sible under the circumstances. Al though feeble, he still looks forward to his trip to the Charleston Reunion, which he will not miss if it is possible for him to get there. The greatest sympathy is expressed for him on all sides, and some old Confeds on the streets to-day began talking of a movement to build a new residence for him as a token of their love. In attempting to save a dog the General was scorched ubout the face. Among his papers were several hun dred unanswered letters from persons in all parts of the country.-News awl Courier. Many old soldiers now feel the effects of the hard service they endur ed during the war. Mr. Geo. S. An derson, of Rossville, York County. Penn., who saw the hardest kind ot service at the front, is now frequently troubled with rheumatism. "I had a severe attack lately/1 he says, ''and procured a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. It did so much good that I would like to know what you would charge me for one dozen bottles." Mr. Andersou wanted it both for his own usc and to supply it to his friend? and neighbors, as every family should have a bottle of it in their home, not only for rheumatism, but lame back, sprains, swellings, cuts, bruises and burns, for which it is unequalled.

Wiley, chief chemist of the de partment of agriculture, who was called to the stand to-day to testify before the Senatorial pure food inves tigating committee, now in session here, fully 90 per cent of the articles of food and drink manufactured and used in this country are frauds. All kinds of dairy products, he said, as well as nearly every variety of condi ments, including even coffee in the berry, were adulterated. Dr. Wiley was the first witness be fore the committee, which opened its first session to-day in the Grand Pacific Hotel. Senator William E. Mason, chairman, was the only member pres ent. Senator Harris will not arrive until to-morrow, aud Senator Wetmore is ill. In his testimony before the committee Dr. Wiley gave in detail the methods of manufacture in adul terating different articles of food. In milk, according to his testimony, the most common practice is the ab straction of the fatty substance in taking away the cream. A common practice among dealers he said, was the adulteration vith water, and in addition to this, preservatives are used in no small extent to prevent the liquid from souring. In the butter the common way of defrauding the public, according to the testimony, was the adulteration of other fats, both animal"and vegetable, for the natural fat of the milk. Both cotton seed oil and high grades of lard were employed in this work. Honey, Dr. Wiley said, probably was a more abused article in the line of adultera tion than any other. The principal method of.adultera ting lard is the mixing of vegetable oils with the natural fat of the hog. Fats and oils, he said, instead of being injurious to the health, are wholesome to a great degree. All kinds of pure oils, he said, were heating to the sys tem as well as great aids to digestion. Another fraud, which is carried on to a very great extent, is the selling of cotton seed oil for olive oil Probably among all the foods men tioned by Dr. Wiley none attracted greater attention than the adulteration of coffee, even in the berry. Accord ing to the witness, in recent investi gations he had found molasses and flour moulded into berries, colored, mixed with the genuine, and sold as high grade coffee. According to Dr. Wiley, there is very little pure beer made in this country. Fully 70 per cent of the beer which is sold in this country is made of some other article than malt. In regard to the extensive use of glucose, witness said that it was not objectionable for food pur poses if used in moderation. Very little pure jelly is manufac tured according to the witness. There is also a great amount of adulteration in the manufacture of vinegar. Dr. Wiley said that Vermont maple sugar was manufactured in Davenport, Iowa, out of-brown sugar and an ex tract of hickory bark, and it v^s not deleterious. In fact, he said, it was impossible for chemists to distinguish the two. The sugar was the same, and the natural ether that gave thc maple sugar its flavor and the distinctive quality was too infinite to segregate in an analysis. ' The extract, of hickory, he said, was about the same as the maple's flavor. Spices, he said, were adulterated. and peanut shells were palmed off as ground cinnamon. - The life of an editor in Servia is not a delightful one.

The tallest woman in the United States, and probably in the world, is Miss Ella Ewing of Gorin, Mo., a lit tle town not far east of Kansas City, on the Santa Fe Road. This "high born lady" is 26 years old, according to the family Bible, and measures 8 feet 4 inches in her every-day shoes. Her parents are well-to-do farmers of ordinary stature, and her father, Samuel Ewing, is a highly respected member of the community. Miss Ewing was born at Gerin, and when^ 12 years old she measured nearly seven feet, but kept on growing, co the amazement of her family and the neighbors. In her girlish years she was quite sensitive about her height, because the other children used to tease her; but when she discovered that it was worth $50 a week from Barnum's circus. and museum mana gers she took another view of the case. She earned enough money to lift the mortgage from her father's farm, and retired to private life. Miss Ewing has had several offers of marriage, but so far as I can learn her heart is still unpledged. flOttfArO nf tho ?n^tnrc' Then? ?s not the slightest doubts that the DCffulG Ul II1C Uwu.'JIO doctorado more harm than good in'treating Contagious Blood Poison; many victims?of Pfltfihuffirlf .
