Experiment Station Notes.
The appearance of the report of the
Station for 1894 has been considera
bly delayed, owing to the fact that the
MS. was destroyed by fire in the State
printing office in February. The MS.
was re-produced as promptly as pos-
sible, and the report is now ready for
The most prominent feature of the
volume is the report upon the co-
operative experiments with tobacco,
carried on in Lancaster county in co-
operation with the Lancaster County
Tobacco Growers’ Society under the
provisions of the Act of June 8th,
1893. These experiments include in-.
vestigations of the physical and
chemical properties of the soils, ex-|
riments upon the use of commercial |
fartilizers and their effect upon the
yield, size and quality of leaf, and ex-
periments upon the curing of tobacco,
especially upon the use of artificial
heat in curing. The latter experiments
are especially interesting and, while
definite results were not reached, the
process seems to be ope of great
promise.
The subject of tuberculosis is treated
by Dr. Leonard Pearson, the article
covering such points as the history of
tuberculosis, its distribution among
animals, its prevalence in this coun-
try, the conditions favoring its develop-
ment in herds, and the location and
symptoms of the disease. The tuber-
culin test is described at length, with
the precautions necessary to be ob-
gerved in using it, and the results of
tests upon the Experiment Station
herd are given to combat the idea that
the use of tuberculin is injurious to
animale. A conservative view is taken
of the danger to health due tothe prev-
alence of this disease among cattle,
while at the same time dairymen are
urged to take every precaution to pre-
vent or exterminate the disease, both
in their own interest and in that of the
putlic health.
Dairymen will find data of much in-
terest to them in the extensive tests of
cream separators made at-the Station
and at various creameriee in the State.
The latter tests are interesting ag an
indication of the losses sustained in
the creameriee of this State by poor
management, this loss amounting in
the case of some creameries to as much
as $10 per day.
The general subject of etock feed-
ing, including the composition of feed-
ing stuffs, the teeding standards and
the computation of rations is treated
in a short article which will be re-
publiehed in pamphlet form for free
distribution. Experiments upon the
use of cotton seed feed for dairy
cows and upon the comparative value
of silage, sugar beets and mangels are
also reported.
A very interesting summary is given
of the fertilizer experiments which
have been carried on at the Station for
the past twelve years. Numerous
varieties of wheat, oats and potatoes
are reported upon, and extensive tabu-
iar data as to the meteorology of the
year conclude the volume.

As He Pronounced It
The} Father of Playeright Thomas Instructs a
School Teacher How to’ Pronounce *‘Bis-
sour’ Bostonian Method in Disfavor With
Westerners.
Mr. Thomas the author of the play
“In Mizzoura,’’ has given an interesting
incident in hie early life recalled by the
title of his play. The sgpelling of the
name gives a fair idea of the local pro-
nunciation. This pronunciation, par-
ticularly of the name of the state, isa
sensitive question with the natives.
Spessing of the matter the other day,
r. Thomas said :
“You know that just south of Mis-
souri the people of Arkansas, annoyed
beyond endurance by the various pro-
nunciation of the name of their state,
breught the subject to the attention of
the legislature, ard that body by special
enactment fixed the pronunciation of
Arkansaw, Missourians feel the same
way about Missouri. They detest the
effeminate aspirant that Boston has
tried to fix upon them and the diminu-
tive sound of the termination. 1 remem-
ber well when I was a schoolboy in
Missouri and anxious to show my ac-
qairement at home I' pronounced the
name of the state Miss-sou-ree. My
father overheard me and told me never
to call it so again. Obeying him the
next day at school I gave the real trans-
mississippi sound to it in recitation and
was called down by the teacher. I ex-
plained that paw had——
¢ ‘But that makes no difference. I'm
teaching this class Your ‘paw’ isn’t.
You must say Miss-sou-ree !”’
“I told my father at supper how the
teacher had figuratively wiped up the
floor with him before the geograpny
class. The gov’nor pushed back his pie
—they ate pie for supper there—and
went out and chewed tobacco on the
back porch. He thrashed around in
bed all night, and when morning came
he was up at daylight trying to push
the time ahead to 9, when the school
opened. Then he took me by the
hand, and we went into school to-
gether—a trifle ‘late for effect. The
gov’'nor has a good eye for stage busi-
ness. He planted his progeny in the
center before the astonished teacher.
¢ ¢That’s my boy.” The young wo-
man Tocked us both over and seemed
inclined to grant it. Impressive wait.
Then the gov’nmor continued: ‘He
was born in Mizzouraw. Where are
you from ?’
“The young woman said ‘Boston’ and
gave adrowning man look for her di-
ploma that was somewhere under the
map of Asia, but the old gentleman was
setting a faster pace.
“What's Boston got to do with it?
What do you say the name of this state
js?”
“Why, I thought Miss-sou-ree’'—
“Not at all. Tom Benton said Miz-
zouraw when he addressed the senate of
the United States. General Shields
says Mizzouraw. Nathaniel P. Lyon,
who died at Wilson's creek, said Miz-
zouraw, and Frank Blair says it. Un-
rstand !’
he understood.
“¥And years ago, on the first survey
map, it was printed as the Indians call
it, full of z's.” The teacher, was winc-
ing as I'd seen her do sghen’a boy scrap-
ed his pencil edgewise on a slate, and
paw went on :
¢ And every boy here that respects
his parents and the constitution gof the
United States will always say Mizzou-
raw.’
“He went home, and I don’t think I
ever said Miss-sou-ree again.”’—New
York World.
“SWEET THE PLEASURE.” —‘‘Sweet
is pleasure after pain’ says Dryden,
while Young tells us that “A man of
pleasure, is a man of pains.” Possibly
so, no doubt, a man must sometimes
take pains if he would secure pleasure.
But when pains take the man there is
no pleasure for him. Tf he wants pleas-
ure let him take pains to get Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. It is a cer-
tain cure for all diseases of the blood
and skin. JIt should be tried by all af-
flicted wiip--getter, salt-rheum. scald
head, St. Antnony’s fire, erysipelas,
ring-worms, pimples, blotches, scrofu-
lous sores, swellin {, blood taints, affec-
tion of the skin, throat and bones, ulcers
of the liver, stomdch, kidney: and lungs
Purify the blood, and health will re-
turn.
