Scenes About the metnrle Moniltr of Smitliarn Itat.rlntlirrerenre tn Hanger from t.ava la tine Largely to I he Trutt anil faith In the 1'ntrnn Halm. The volcano Vesuvius rises on the mnlnlnnd about 15 miles from the rlty of Naples and about five miles from the coast, writes W. K. Curtis, In the Chicago Rorordllerald. It Is em-lr-rle.1 by n rnllway at. tlm base, and tip to the height nf IfllMI feet Is rovered with cltlea, vtllnRes, farmlimmes and vineyards. At lent 8(i.ono jienple live In the nildnt of continual dnnRer, to which they seem entirely Indifferent. It Feenis strange Hint n section ex porei to such constant p."i-ll should he so densely populated, nnd thousands among thost? who bravo It must have n-itiirased ihe terrible destruction from the rilsturhnnr-cs of 1872. Tiiere were eruptions In 18115 and 18!!, which de atroyed the ronds but did not other daitiHRe, althotiRli Ihey were a loud warning to all who occupy the great amphitheatre wlihln tho range of vol canic catastrophe. Last May the ma chinery of tho rnllway that carries people to the crater was pnrtlally destroyed, but little lava was thrown out. From every window of tho whit houses which glare in the sun can be seen the floods of lava which have so often poured from the crater of tho monster and forced their way down to the sea, burning and burying every thing In their track. Yet the peasants continue working In the vineyards within a few yards of tho significant sireams, producing that popular wine with the blasphemous name, I.acrima ChrlFtl (tears of Christ.) The lava Is intensely fcr.lle, which Is one rea son for the indifference to the danger. The material thrown out from the bowels of the earth is composed of elements especially adnpted for grow ing of grnpes. Ttnt the volcanic soil ia equally productive of other crops. The greniest security, however. Is assured by S5m (iennaro, the patron saint of Naples, who has repeatedly averted earthquakes and relieved the anxiety of the frightened people. The Trmains of this alnt repose In one of the churches, where there Is also a crystal vial containing a quantity of his blood. Upon certain annlver Farles the priests take this crystal from the depository. The sacred relic Is first conducted at the head of a procession to different sections of tho city. In order that as many people as possible may share In the adoration. At the end of the march high mass Is celebrated by the bishop or arch bishop or Rome prelate tif fllstin gulshpd rank, while the crystal vase stands upon the altar. An image or picture of San Gennaro la to be found In every cottage on the -volcano, within reach of the danger, and pious peasants will tell you how often the good saint haa averted from their vineyards torrents of lire, which bad crawled to a point where it seemed that not even divine power could avert destruction. So great ia tills faith that the thousands of peo ple continue to live conscious ot se curity upon the ground where thou sand's before them have perished. It ia true that there haa been no great Ions of life of recent years, but Pom pell and Herculaneum were entirely destroyed, and 3000, 4000 and 2000 peo ple have lost their lives on three differ ent occasions within the last two cen turies. The eruption of 1794 was the last in which many Uvea were sacri ficed, although in 1872 20 people were killed by their own folly, being led to curiosity too near the point of dan ger. Pompeii and Herculaneum were de stroyed on the 2 4 Mi of August In the year 79, when the country waa devas tated far and wide and burled under showers of ashes and vast streams of lava. It waa then that tho present cone of the mountain was formed. Previously It waa a low ridge, not mflre than 2000 feet In height. Now the peak extends nearly 4500 feet above the sea and haa increased from 3900 feet 'since 1846 and from 4255 feet since 1869. It la gradually grow ing, although with every eruption a few feet of the crater Is usually knocked off. Last fall the height waa reduced 242 feet. The great naturalist, Pliny, who waa also a naval officer, waa in command of the fleet In the harbor of Naples during the eruption of 79, and lost his life. His nephew, the younger Pliny, gives a vivid description of tho catastrophe In a letter to Tacitus, tho historian how the earth waa shaken by Internal convulsions and the day turned Into night, the extraordinary agitation of the aea, the dense clouds overhanging land and aea and broken by Incessant flashes of lightning and terrific thundering; llhe terrible floods of fire and ashea, and the terror of the people, who believed that the end of the world had arrived. About once in 20 years these phe nomena reappear, although none has since been so destructive. Near the foot of t!he cone Is a meteorological observatory 2220 feet above the sea, perched among tha streams of dead lava. It Is equipped with seismo graphs and other apparatus for regis tering the movement of the earth, and the observer can predict several days in advance any unuaual disturbance. But the cats, dogs and horses which live on the sides of Che volcano are quite as sensitive and never fall to perceive 'the approach of danger as soon aa the automatic Instruments. The crater which destroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum Is extinct. . Its work was done and was well done, and It baa been gradually filled up by the overflow from other eratera which bavo broken out since. Every few years' there Is a break in the side of the cone. Today you cai sea the last one, which opened In 18J19, and tho yellow color of tho sui-rnce of the earth around It la duo not to sulphur, as people as first suppose, but to tho heat still retained by the earth. The man ager of the rnllway tells me that tha rocks and the lava hnve not yet cooled, although two years have passed, and It Is impossible to approach nearer than 50 or 60 yards on account of tho heat. The temperature of the lava recorded by the observcra In 1899 was 2ono degrees Fahrenheit. I am not able to understand how the record was taken, but give the fact as stated to me. There was another and an even greater outbreak In 189ii, from which flowed several streams of lava with a roar resembling the detonation of ar tillery. The rnndway which bad been built at great expenso up tho side of the mountain wns burled under the floods of liquid lava and several hun dred yards bad to bo rebuilt. So fnr as can be ascertained, that crater was only temporary, and has closed again; but the surface of the mountain Is so hot that It cannot be reached. Since 1872 there has been no erup tion from the mnln crater at tho top of tho mountain, although a clou t of jttram or a plllnr of ymoke continually arises. The effect of the steam Is In describably Ijeautlful. Its form va ries according to the. direction and the violence of the wind. When tho air Is still it rises from the crest of the cone like a titanic plume. At other times It takes the form of a streamer, tapering off Into the sky far distant, and again it will settle about the sum mit of the mountain like a pure white cloud. Occasionally the vapor ceases and volumes of thick, black smoke as cend, which throw a ahower of soot over the surrounding country. At rare Intervals flames have been seen to shoot up, and sometimes then? Is a Rlow at the base of the column of smoke which H rxplalned by different people with different theories. Notwithstanding the long list of pub lications by eminent scientists which have appeared since the art of printing was Invented, tho cause of these phe nomena Is still a matter of conjecture and controversy. The highest authori ties believe that the pit of Are Is Inti mately connected with the ea, and that the regular column of stream Is due to the continual flow, of water from It Into the furnace. When tho steam ceases and the black smoke ap pears they assume that the current of water has temporarily been checked, perhaps by dislodging some block of earth or lava In tho interior of the crater, and the smoke continues until the obstacle is removed. But all this 1 disputed and nobody Tcnows any thing about It. There la also a theory, based upon a comparison of observa tions, that Mount Etna in Sicily ia connected with Vesuvius underground, and that both volcanoes are only two chimnwyB'of the same furnace.

A curious custom takes place In vil lages of the Luxemburg district, Bel gium, every May. After Sunday ser vice numbers of lads cluster round the church entrance, and as the girls come out seize them one by one, one lad grasping a girl by the shoulder and the other by the heels, the two lifting her well up while a third bump kin passes under the human bridge thus formed.

Dlnd weed is a very troublesome weed which winds Its tough curling items around the stalks rrf plants, even tually choking them and Injuring their growth.

Short rotations and thorough cultiva tion with hoed crops will hold It In check, l.nte plnnted hoed crops, espe cially roots and rape, are moro effec tive than those sown early.

Sulphur Is an excellent dlsenfectant when burned In the poultry house; but as sulphur melts and smothers the flame It Is difficult to burn It satisfac torily. One way to do so Is to dissolve one-half pint of plne-tar and one-half pint of turpentine in one-half gallon of kerosene In an open vessel. Soak In this solution large corn-cobs until they are well saturated. Then take them from the solution and dust on them all of the powdered sulphur that will stick to them. I'se nails or pieces of wire, and Insert the pointed end Into the lerge ends of the cob and then stick them on the floor. Remove all the combustible matter from the poul try bouse, permitting tbe fumes to enter e?very crack and crevice, all over the surface, and tbe lice will be de stroyed. This should be done once a month In warm weather. Garden and Farm. Three Crepe In a Seaenn. Some of my neighbors say that my eleven-acre farm produces more than an adjoining BO-acre farm. It is not only the "little farm well tilled" that Tomes out ahead; that little farm must alao be filled with growing crops in tbelr season rn order that It may bring tbe best results. To illustrate I will give a short chapter from my own ex perience. Some time in April I planted early peas nn well prepared, fertile soil, drilling the seed in rows five feet apart. After the peas were up the ground waa kept free elf weeds and thoroughly cultivated. About May 15 T. marked the ground out for muskmel ons, planting a row of melons half way between the Vows of peas. The peas were picked green for market and the vines puihid and fed to the Jersey cow. Now, for a time, the cultivator had fair play on the melon patch. After going owr the ground for tbe last time before the vines reached mt to take fun possession, turnip seed waa sown over the entire ground. After the melons had been harvested and the frost had killed the vines the ground was rovered with turnips, which had ample time to produce a good crop before winter set in. This is oniy one way of keeping the ground fuTly oc cupied and not waste tbe fertility of tbe soil in growing a crop of weeds. Practical Farmer. Btmtflks for Canhace TTonna. The cabbage worms of several kinds and with several different methods of operation have already begun there work on tho plants. These pests are, however, easily destroyed If tho matter Is looked after early. Among the many remedies which have proved efficacious are: Tobacco finely pulver ized and dusted on when the dew Is on the plants, being careful to do it thoroughly; cayenne p?pper used In the same manner as the tobacco; one teaspoonful of saltpeter to a gallon of water, sprinkled on with a watering can or applied with a sprayer. Is re commended for the green worms that Infest this vegetable In its early growth. American hellebore dusteed on early In the morning, or immedi ately after a rain, is certain and safe. Coal ashea saturated with either coal oil or gasoline Is a cheap and effec tive way to rid the patch of the vermin If thoroughly applied. Another cheap plan, which Is said to give good results, although we have never tried It, is to All a sprinkling pot with boiling water and literally soak the worms with It. A successful cabbage raiser of the writer's, acquaintance Insists that the best plan to deal with worms Is by de stroying the moths that produce them. This, he accomplished by a modified form of the much-advertised moth trap. As soon as his plants are set out, he takes a small gasoline stove and sets It tn the middle of tbe cabbage patch In a tub of water. He then Ignites gasoline and allows It to blaze. Instead of merely generating. The moths are attracted to the flame, singe their wings, drop into the water and their worm producing career Is at an end. Chicago Drover's Journal. Baby Beef fnr Market. There was never a more promising time for the farmer or cattle grower to engage In raising the right kind of beef for market, and the man who has the patience and wisdom to look ahead a few months will realize good profits. Beef and cattle are not going to be lower for several years, for the supply cannot keep pace with the growth of our population until our ranges are stocked more thoroughly. We havo fallen behind In stock raising, whllo population has enormously gained on lis. We are just realizing this, and either people must stop eating meat or ne wining to pay more lor it man in tho pnst. There are special opportunities for the man who can raise baby beef for market. This Is the fnney beef which the best trade demands, and this trade Is less affected by rising prices than the cheaper trade. People with plenty of money In our cities will continue eating href ns before, but they will demand a swe.t, tender Juicy beef. This comes from the young calf which Is raised and fed for the beef market nt once, nnd which Is sold within a yenr or a year and a Half. The beef of such an animal Is as much superior to that found on n steer which has been In existence for several years and has grown hardened and toughened to a rough life on the ran Re, as the meat of a spring chicken Is better than that of an old rooster. This bnby beef, as It Is tailed Is tho kind of meat tn demand In all large city markets and It com mnncH the fancy prices. The tough range steers tlint have been fattened a little toward the end of their lives have no show In competition with this. Baby href can be raised cheaper than tough steer meat, because tho fattening and growing process Is begun when the calf is first born, and it Is kept up rapidly until the animal Is ready for market. It Is during this early period of growth when tho increase in weight Is steady and rapid. Every pound of food Is well paid for. and It mnkes a very largo percentage of In crease In weight. Even with prices the same there would be more profit In raising beef In this way than In keeping It for several years, hut with the much higher prices the profits are a good deal more satisfactory. E. P. Smith in American Cultivator. lsep a. Shallow Plowing. The remedy for a poor soli Is not so much "deeper plowing, but more fertil izing, more humus. If we have a soil somewhat non-porous, a soil that will run together after every little rain, the thing to do Is to manure It heavily with coarse stable manure. The more straw I room ne found tne manager with an nnd corn stalks the better. If you have I ,,lBh ''' Plcied on every feature and been In the habit of breaking seven or tne ,a',v wringing her hands and eight Inches deen. break five or six. on shrieking: an average about two Inches shallower tbnn llanal. I hrllnvo tha nrnturr 1onlh is about an average of five Inches on all ordinary soils. If I had a clay hill that waa very poor. I should manure it very heavily and plow It not to exceed fonr Inches deep, make it very fine and mix the manure with the soli. If I put the manure on in tbe fall and early winter, I should expect quite an Increase the first year; but if the manure was not put on until sirring, "a dry season would not bring much over the ordinary amount. In that case tbe next crop would get the benefit Tbe best place to put manure In the spring is upon grass or pasture land, spreading It thin. The poorer wpots on a farm may be supplied wlfh bumua In this manner, but for the entire farm we must have recourse to something else. Some re sort to commercial fertilizer, but this must be continued from year to year and is expensive. A renovating crop should be grown occasionally, a crop that has for Its object primarily the fertilizing of the land, the increasing of its humus Some of these crops are grown and turned under before maturing, and this Is called green manuring; others are allowed to ripen and fall down, and are then plowed under. The latter class are tho more valuable. Of the first named (iasa, rya sown In the fall and turned under In the spring, is a good example. Cow-peas, oats, peas, turnips and rape may belong to either. Clover, either tho little red or the big English, is the one plant mainly nscd In the latter class. The best of these two plants is the little red. as It may be harvested In June, or pastured half the summer, then make a good growth to plow under. To use these crops prop erly a systematic rotation must be fol lowed. In the light of recent years I am confident that we can do better farming than we have done hitherto, and this will necessitate a better rota tion. The point I wish to emphasize Is, that a soil five inches deep and full of humus. Is better than a soil eight or nine Inches dnep lacking humus. A fcoll lacking none of the plant foods will bring a better crop, other condi tions being tho same, than one so lack ing, though the latter be deeper. A. N. Springer, In the Epltomist.

In French theatres the doctor of the theatre has a seat given him for every performance. He must be there each evening. Naturally, after he has seen the same pleco a score of times he longs to be elsewhere, and pcrfcrs to give his seat to some of his friends. A well-known writer, M.

Just as he was be coming Interested In the first act the stage manager rushed up ihe heroine had a nervous attack and required medical aid. B had nothing else to do but follow him. In the lady's dressing ' "Nw, doctor, quick What's to be I UOne? B grew as red a t a lobster, and as he could not say anything he just ejaculated: "H'm. It us see; let us Be?!" He took the lady's hand In a wild at tempt to fell her pulse. She shrieked more than ever and writhed like a snake. ' "Have you poured any water on her head?" he asked. "Yes." "And no effect?" "None." "Then give her a sniff of eau de cologne." "Haven't any," was tho answer.' "Then go and fetch some." Off rtrshed the manager and the Stage manager together, and B was left with tho patient. Suddenly she opened her eyes and smiled. "Doctor," she said, "you are a good fellow, aren't you?" "Yes, ma'mselle." "You must be doctor. Now listen. There is nothing the matter with me. You would have found that out soon. I want a couplo of days' holiday. Can't yon manage It?" "Delighted," he replied, Joyfully. "Now, ma'mselle, you're a good sort, too. I'm not a doctor. I came In on the doctor's ticket, so you must not give him away." By this time the manager and stage manager came back, each with a bottle of eau de cologne. Ho told them that it was unnecessary now; the lady was quite composed and could appear with out any danger. But she must have a few days' rest. They made wry faces, but granted the holiday.
