VICTORY. ion of the Readiness of a Nebraska Stump Speaker. The Waahington Post tells a story which illustrates the readiness of A first-rate stunip orator. Colonel Starh of Nebraska, a member of Congress, was announced to speak In a certain town in Nebraska, and many people of big political faith-;: :s not necessary to say which side he was on, nor which eminent candidate he championed Oad come in from round about to hear him. At the last moment, however, it was discovered that, through some neglect of the local managers, the opposing party had got possession of the only hall in the place. In plain terms, Col onel Stark and his intending auditors were literally out in the cold, for the season was late, and it was impossible to hold a meeting in the open air. . Of course Colonel Stark could not think of permitting the opponents to have his audience, and he set about finding some other roomy and warm place which would answer his pur pose. The only thing that offered it. self was a huge building used as the winter quarters of a circus and me oagerie. In the training shed of this establish ment, therefore, Colonel Stark assem bled his audience, which was all the larger on account of the uuusual cir cumstances under which it was alled together. Colonel Stark mounted an elephant tub and began his address. "Fellow citizens, ladies and gentle men-" Here the lion roared "Wow-wo-o w" completely drowning the orator's voic. As soon as the uproar had somewhat suUided, Stark began again: "In this momentous campaign-" "Yap-yow-hi-yi-yi-yi'" yelled the hy ena. No progress was possible until this very unpleasant and disconcert ing an.mal had ceased his outcries. Then Colonel Smith resumed: "I come to speak to you in behalf-" Here the elephant trumpeted with majestic sound, and several smaller animals contributed an echo of consid erable magnitude. When this was over Colonel Stark went on: "In behalf of our great and glorious leader, the peerless statesman and matchless orator-" He named the leader of bis party, and at once, possibly set on by-an ex asperating howl of the wolf, all the animals in the building began an awful clamor. The lion roared, the bears growled, the elephant trumpeted and the camels snorted. The audience be gan to laugh, and it seemed all over for the speech, when, in a lull of the tu mult, the voice of Colonel Stark was once more heard "At the mention of whose name even the wild animals lift up their voices In a tumult of appreciative joyl" At this the audience cheered with de light and approbation. Having had their say, the animals thenceforth re main.ed comparatkely quiet, and the meeting was pronounced an oven~ One a hetoo me pills and then He highly pr. the same; ae'll never be obscure bgain The whole world knows hi ae -Chicago Times-Hegid Look For the "Planet of Romance," on May 28th. Part of the investigations of May 28th will be directed, not to the sun Itself, but to the space lying between the sun and Mercury. We are told in a paper by Julia MacNair Wright in the May "New Lippincott" that it has been the dream of many astronomers that about half way between the sun and Mercury lies a little planet, lost in the effulgence of the sun. Sir Wil 1iam Ball names this the "Planet of Romance." Other astronomers ha ,e searched for it, christening it Vulean before it has been found. I'- ever such a planet rolled exactly between the earth and the syin, it would sometimes be seen crawling like a black dot across the sun's disk. In the gloom of an eclipse such an orb might show its face if its position as regards the earth were favorable. Most astronomers have concluded that there is no such planet, but that the space between Mercury and the sun is empty.

Ermeedwt Thompnn'ns EyeWaer Ps Be Easy on the Horses. The teams will soon be very busy and the farmers also; but in spite of all this don't overlook the matter of seeing to the collars, for after the horses have been "laying up" all winter their shoulders will no doubt be tender, and when they are first put into harness the constant jerking of the plow is liable to make them very sore. Sometimes a balky horse can be cured by looking over the harness and determining just what is bother ing the animal. Ninety-nine out of a hundred men would halk if they were compelled to work when in the same condition that some horses are. The least thing that can be done for the ever faithful servant of man is to make him as comfortable as pos sible when at labor. Millet For Heus. The small seeds, such Pe those from millet and sorghum, are much better than whole Indian corn as winter feed for fowls. The latter can be and is swallowed too fast, and often in a few minutes the hen fills its small crop so that the active muscles of the gizzard cannot be brought to grind it. In such cases the fowl becomes crop bound, in which-condition the corn ferments, and the result is certain death unless re lieved. A slit into the crop just large enough to let out the gases that are expanding it will often affora perma nent relief. There is no such danger in feeding small seeds, especially if they are scattered so that the fowl has to exercise some to get them, and swal low only a few at a time. If corn is fed it is better if broken into small pieces than if fed whole. Plow Sod Shallow. Experience and observation have demonstrated that a stiff sod should not be turned as deep as stubble land, for the reason that soil fertility works downward instead of upward, and when a heavy sod is turned under to the depth of nine or ten inches, it is plain that the decaying vegetable matter will and does contain much that is soluble. The water that miy fall in the form of rain naturally carries these soluble portions <teeper down into the soil. This would do no harm if it was not for the fact that this soluble fertility is carried so deep as not to be available for plant food. Hence turn under a sod to within two inches of the former plowing, and the following year to the usual depth of half an inch or so deeper. The action of the sod has naturally made the soil below it richer in fertility. On well drained soil a flat furrow is preferable to a lap furrow when turning sod. Anchoring a Water Fence. 'Where a fence must be built across a shallow stream, or out into the edge of a pond or river, the plan shown in the cut will be found useful. A big stake is constructed by nailing four 'IIE STAKE PLAcED IN Po.SITIoN. boards together as shown, making lower end bigger than the top. A bot tom board is nailed iato the 1:wer cnd and the first two feet of the interior filled with stones. This will very ef fectually anchor this kind of feuee post. They can be made of a length to suit the varying depth of the water. Wires, as shown, near the top and bottom will help to keep the boards from swelling and warping open. Healthy Hops. The health of hogs does not depend in.any measure on the promiscuous feeding of drugs. If proper attention were given to all the hogs in the country, the makers of cholera cures would have no de nand for their medi cines. When it is said they lhve off the ignorance of the public it is but to tell the truth, and it is not saying anything against them or their reme dies. These men who have studied hog cholera in all its phases are the first to say that the disease first gets its foothold in filthy pens and yards, and from drinking stagnant water. From this start herds that are proper ly cared for become infected, and, if the season is favorable for the devel opment of the germs of the disease, an epidemic of hog cholera follows, that sweeps hogs worth untold thou sands. It cannot be said too many times that hogs are cleanly by nature. They are the only domestic animals that will habitually have a certain place in which to deposit their drop pings, keeping the remainder of the range clean, if they are allowed to do do. Give pure water and plenty of green feed during the period of de velopment and hog cholera, if it comes at all, will come from an outside source. Once it has arrived promrt measures to check its ravages should be resorted to and persisted in until the disease is checked. -Swineherd. Plantingand Cultivating Str awberries. Do not plant in a small garden if you can help it, but choose some place where you can use a plow and team. A few long rows are better than many short ones. Never plant in the fall unless you have time and money to throw away. Plant on ground free: of weed seed or you will rue it. Plant as soon as the ground is in good work ing condition, but not before. Have the clods well pulverized, then mark the grotind off with furrows three or four inches deep and forty inches apart. Have your plants ready be fore the furrow is opened. Take up a small bunch of plants, dip the roots in water, then sprinkle fresh dirt on them till it adheres to) every rootlet. then get them set quickly before the dirt dries on them r-ud you will not lose a plaut. Phant theni eighteen inches apart, spreading the roots out Wall and nresning the dirt down firam ly on the roots. Plant them on the level. If they are above it they will dry out and die. If below, in cultiva-' tion the clods will roll down on them and cause much unnecessary labor. The same day you plant them, cul tivate them. Keep the surface loose at all times until frost in the fall. Never plow with big shovels. Never throw the dirt up to them so as to make a ridge. At all times, plow as close to the plants as you can, drag ging the runners with the plow or cultivator into a close row. If weeds appear in the rows, pull them out. Do not cut off the rilthners. If you will let no fruit grow on them the first year you will have a bigger crop the I the next. It pays to pinch off the fruit stems. Do not neglect this crop and you will have a thing of beanty and pleasure in the end.-W. L. Anderson, in the New England Homestead. A Rellable Post Driver. By the aid of a homemade post driving machine, as illustrated, posts can be driven nearly as fast as a team can walk on light soils, and each stop, even on a heavy soil, will not be greatly prolonged. The only diffi culty will be in driving on a rock. The two side pieces (a a) are 4x6 inches by 10 feet; cross pieces (b b) are as long as the wagon is wide and of 4x6 inches. Pieces 'e e) are 4x6 inches and 5 feet long, being let into crosspiece (b) one-half. Cross piece (c) is of 214 inch and 11 feet long mortised into e e 2 inches.

Defective Butter The dairyman finestb cosmr s te made I in this country is classified below fancy or extra, and only an extremely small percentage cf the whole output sells at outside quotations given in any market. A mere summary of the dangers that threaten to cause his: butter to be marked down .ie sufficientl to show how careful he must be. 4 The worst side of this subject is thatt we arc not sure just what causes all 1 of the defects. For instance, streaky and mottled butter will sometimes come from the best dairy or creamery, and dairymen 1 of experience differ as to the exact I cause of this. Some attribute it to the churn and the methods of mak ing; others to the temperature of the milk and cream, and others to the food the cows have received, which 1 affects the cream adversely. It is! certain that such butter never com mands the highest price, although itt may be almost perfect in color and flavor. It is appearance as well as flavor that determines the price of I butter in city markets. How to control the flavor and C sweetness of butter is a problem that. has caused many a dairyman to grow gray in the service. There are so many conditions that do not prevail in all cases that it would be impossible to lay down general rules that wouldf always be practical. Sweet cream, up-to-date methods of making, and everything else apparently necessary, to produce the finest butter will be present, but some little unexpected change in the temp~erature or an acci-I dent to the machinery or failure to< have tife packing tubs perfectly ster ilized may cause a defect that will re duce the profits a cent or two a pound. Even the matter of controlling the moisture in butter is an important] one. Over-churniug butter will sometimes cause the moisture in it to < dry up so that it will not keep well nor present a fine appearance. The salt in this dry butter does not dis solve properly, but collects on the outside of the butter and injures itsi appearance. On the other hand over-i churning will sometimes cause the soft and slushy butter that is always] hard to sell in the market. Very few I can so control the moisture in but ter so that it will always come out, ard and firm, with a texture that de lights the eyes and a flavor that is in no way impaired1. Yet this is what every dairyman aspires to accomplish, an:l he has plenty of study and work ahead of him to do it.-3. W. Chain b~ers, in American Cultivator. Worse and Worse.

ITH the opening of the riding and driving season, and especially with the reappearance of bicycles, re shall hear much of good roads. It s wished that in this country we night see as much as we hear of them. Where the highways are improved hey are valued, and people who use ;hem are never again willing to go iack to the kind of trough of sand nd mud that passes for a turnpike in nany parts of this country. The ood roads movement iias not ceased rom moving, and cheering news omes, every now and again, of the aying of asphalt in cities and of mac tdam in the country, yet so little is lone in proportion to what ought to :e done, and must be done, that one oses heart, now and again, and fears ;hat for the next century this country ,3 doomed to travel over almost the vorst ronds in all tie world. A trav. ler who has just reached the East, >n his return from a wheeling tour of 2early three years around tne world, eports that he found the roads in [linois worse than those in China, hich were heretofore supposed to be :he meanest that could be found in my land that had roads at all. One of the chief causes of the slow iess with which reform progresses vill probably be found in the fact that .n our country districts the farmers liscover that good roads do not stay ood forever. They appear to think hat their whole duty is done when a roper foundation is laid and it is moothed by a roller. They do not hink in this wise of their houses or heir churches or their farms. They muow that buildings need repair; they cnvw that trees need trimming; they mnow that fields need plowing, and hey gather the stones and stumps out >f them every now and then; yet the -oad that passes their dcors and is ised by hundreds of thousands of >ersora, is buried in snow in winter, s scored by rain and pierced by frost, eceives no attention from them what. ver. They do these things better Lbroad. They first make a road with clean, broad, properly graded sur 'ace, then they appoint menswhose laily business it is to go over it and :ake repairs. Queens Coanty has speu millions )f dollars for macadam, and it has se mured the best roads in the State of "ew York. If they are allowed to go o ruin the work will all have to be lone over again at a tremendous ex )ense. A road mender can keep at east a couple of miles repaired; and iis pay will not be more than a couple >f dollars a day, unless he is in poli ics. It is wiser to pay this sum than o have a bill of thousank of dollars o meet at the end of some years. In Europe the menders watch the high vays just as track walkers watch the -ailroads. Whenever a heavy rain has tarted a -little, channel in the pave nent it will widen and deepen with ~very succeeding rainfall until that art of the pavement is torn beyond epair. A little tamping with gravel, stone put in the .channet, a shovel ali of earth here and there, a cart rut bliterated, a loose stone thrown aside ow and t 'wil keep..the road in anenans we see in ce would make farther re ess; but absolute neglect he surfacing of every path ,nd ~drive. The stitch in time that aves'ie is never applied. It is not ufficient to itehe good roads. It is ust as importan'No~keep them good. -New York Mail andExpcess. The Economic Phase. Speaking of good roads as an econ mic proposition, there is no doubt hat if the common highways of the nited States were placed in anything ike proper condition they would save aillions of dollars annually. A Gov :rnment expert estimates it at half a illion dollars, or one-half the appro riations of- the famous "Billion Dol ar Congress." There was a national good roads novement on a different principla arly in the century. It included the uilding of a national turnpike from Vashington to St. Louis. The advent f railroads nipped the movement in ho bud, and all that remains of it to lay is the Cumberiand turnpike. But iighways were needed and the neces ity was r-ecognized. The iron rails iaye been made the leading highways luring the past half century. A railroad is a highway of commerco n the same sense as a public road, md so are rivers, harbors and canals. Phey are the arteries of trade. - This ~ountry has spent billions of dollars 'or railroad ~building, hundreds of nillions for canals and still more for ~ivrs and harbors. et not one ounce of any commod ty, of any kind, that is hauled over :ailroads, canals, rivers and harbors, t is first hauled over country roads r city streets. The Way to Get Good Roads. One hears a good deal from time to ime of the good roads movement. Is public sentiment behind it? Do the ~armers of New York really want first class highways, or are they content ith those they now drive on? The treatment which the bill pending at Albany appropriating $1,000,000 for good roads gets will throw light on these 'nestions. It is provided in this measure that the appropriation shall be spent in accordance with the provisions of the law of 1898, by which the State pays fifty per cent. of the! cost of road improvement, the county thirty-five per- cent. and the town or' abutting property owners immediately interested the remaining fifteen per This certainly is a fair division, or. at all events, it is a division which enables those who desire good roads to secure them without placing too heavy a burden upon their shoulders, The bill is one of me results of the good roads convention lately held in Albany. If the farmers as a whole desire its passage and1 bestir themselves to that end they can have their way. II they remain passive the Legislatunrs will be justified in conelnding that the time is not ripe for making so large an appropriation.--New York Mail and xpress.

So far the tests with fuel ol in tended as a substitute for coal on ships of war, which are being made at Nor folk and New York, do not appear to have sustained the glowing reports of tests made abroad. It is most prob able, however, that coal will some day be superseded by some more easily handled fuel. The authorities having charge of the present tests have nearly reached the conclusion that fuel oil will be valuable only in times of emer gency, especially on board torpedo boats, when it is necessary to get up steam quickly. At such times the question. of economy need not enter into the matter. It is yet too early to determine whether fuel oil will be smokeless, and the other features which have recommended its trial have not been fully demonstrated, therefore It may be some time before anything definite in the way of an improve:nent will be discovered.
