The recording of the Indian lan guages of this country by the experts of the bureau of ethnology is proving a fascinating task to those engaged upon it, and has been productive of most interesting results, says the Washington Times. Some of these aboriginal tongues have been found to rival the ancient Greek in beauty of expression. Grammars and diction niries have been prepared of some of the languages, a species of work in volving great difficulty, as the Indian words had, in every instance, to be re corded phonetically in the letters of the English alhpabet. There are about 100 separate and dis tinct linguistic branches known to have existed in North America, and of Ihese, the bureau of ethnology has se cured records, more or less complete, of about 7.">. Many of these languages, records of which have thus been made, are dead, so that the data concerning them compiled by the. bureau are of inestimable value. The entire data already collated of fer to the student of philology the most perfect and satisfactory record of the origin, growth, development and relation of languages among prim itive mankind that has ever yet been obtained. This unique linguistic material has been collected not only for linguistic purposes, but as a means for the in terpretation of the primitive mind. One of the curious results obtained is the fact that certain words in Amer ican languages are related in meaning to words of similar sound in trans oceanic tongues, just as the Indian ar row is like that of the Orient and other parts of the world, not only in general form and function, but even in symbol ic markings. Certain hieroglyphics of the Occi dent are similar to those of Egypt and the east in form and significance; the calendar of Mexico duplicates in essen tial features the calendars of India and Arabia; some of the social cus toms of America resemble those of Africa and Australia, and the beliefs and ceremonials of the American aborigines simulate and sometimes ex actly repeat those of India, China anil other countries. These resemblances in the intel lectual products of mankind have been carefully considered and weighed in an effort to trace general ethnic rela tion, and the conclusion that has been reached that, in the vast majority of cases, they cannot be regarded as in dicating connection among peoples, and seem rather to indicate a law of mental action—the law that different minds of equal capacity act similarly in like circumstances. Hopes are entertained by the bureau of the return of Col. Scott, from Cuba, in which case a valuable addition to the knowledge of the Indian sign lan guage may confidently, it is said, be looked for. Col. Scott is the greatest living authority on the interesting Until Ireland frees itself of peace, freedom nor justice in the J Landlordism 1 in Ireland I By JOHN DILLON, M. P. I DUCED BY AN ALIEN GOVERNMENT, HAS BEEN THE CURSE AND THE BLIGHT OK THE COUNTRY. England has given to the Englishman one class of liberty and to the Irishman another class. Ihe English rioter, committing his depredations with but scant cause, is treated leniently by the English courts. The Irish rioter, committing his depredations in a demand for justice that is denied him by the government that wields its power over him, is convicted and heavily punished for a less offense than that committed by the Englishman, even though the two were upon equal terms as to grievances. BUT THE GREAT MAJORITY OF IRELAND'S WRONGS COULD BE RIGHTED BY THE ABOLISHMENT OF THE SYSTEM OF LANDLORDISM GIVEN US BY ENGLAND. Ireland does not beseech this favor of England, IT DEMANDS IT AS A RIGHT, and there will be no peace in Ireland until this de mand is granted. ' matter of the sign language, which lias been ascertained ti> be a veritable art of expression, logically coordi nate with lingual utterance, and per haps of equal importance in the form ative stage of language. The signs were originally demon strative or mimetic, though many of these were developed into partially denotive symbols. n.v the use of these symbols the In dians were able not only to exchange intelligence at distances, but also tc communicate with each other despite differences in dialects; and, indeed, since the signs were less completely differentiated than the phonetic sym bols, even when speakers belonged to distinct stocks, and their spoken lan guages were as different as English and Arabic. As the Indian spanned space by sig nals, so also he sought to bridge time by means of symbol* painted or carved or embossed on the faces of the cliffs or other suitable purposes; and thus, long before the advent of white men, the aborigines entered the stage of graphic expression. Some indications have been found that photographic and decorative a*t sprang from the same ill-defined stem, but early became differentiated, and many signs exist to show that while originally demonstrative and mimetic the rude symbols of pictography soon began to acquire a denotive meaning, anil some of them became almost arbi trary. The researches in pictography illustrate the mode of origin or graphic art among all peoples, and the laws and stages of development ex emplified by both signals and picto graphs are in harmony with those il lustrated in the development of speech. The achievement, of the bureau of ethnology in compiling this wonder ful record of the modes of expression of primitive man, embodying the hab its of thought, feeling and aspiration, may well be reckoned as a notable triumph of American scientific attain ment.

"Why 11 N 112 oiiNtriietloii Mioulil lie Morr Carefully I'laiuietl T'lian I snail y U llie C'ttie. The farmer's barn, or the farm fer tilizer factory, as 1 call it, is some thing that should demand more at tention than is generally given it. For years the colored water that ran across the puLlic road into the Jun iata river from my barnyard worried me almost sick, anil it.was seven years before I could fix it the way 1 wanted it. 1 realize that there is about SB3 Worth of fertility running away from every farmer, every year, through the open barnyard, and four years ago J began getting lugs sawed into boards, buying and laying away sec ond hand window sash and glass, and other things needful to turn my barn into a fertilizer factory, and now I think I have not one of the finest but one of the most convenient, most comfortable fur stock, and best barns for protecting and saving the manure in central Pennsylvania. The cattle in the barnyard are as comfortable as the horses in the horse stable. There is running water in four different apartments, horseyard, barnyard, steer stable niul sheep stable. One object in fixing my barn was to take care of the animals, keep them from getting thirsty and not ■T II!■■ ■ IMIII I 111 II I ■III—IM IIIHW I ! / / » 1 j!

Un der these conditions I think a man ought to be able to raise a three year-old steer in 24 months. Another object was to get a straw shed and get the barnyard covered and board ed in and made warm. Another was to save me from weather-boarding awl roofing the silo and fretting my silo where I could fill it off the hay ladders from barn floor if I wished to do so. And last but not least to be in shape to take care of the manure. My stables are puddled with stiff clay and barnyard bottom is made like the bottom of a kettle and puddled with clay also, here the cow and horse manures are mixed, and I have had no trouble, nor do I expect to have any, with manure fire fanging as long as I can pet tlie liquid with the solids into the barn yard. We will soon brinp 45 head of cat tle into the barn and I do not expect any of them standing around with backs humped up should it be cold. Of manure made and protected in this barn, one load is worth two or three loads often hauled out of the open barnyard, and 1 ain sure that it is not only the cattle that are pleased with this barn, but the men who have to work in it on cold days. -—lt.

Before the roots can take the needed substances, there must be sufficient moisture in the soil. This moisture must circulate to bring it in contact with the roots, and the physical character of the soil has much to do with this. It must not be too open nor too com pact. If too open water cannot rise; if too compact, it evaporates too rap idly from the surface. A soil that settles down like brick dust after a heavy rain cannot for several rea sons produce well. Nature has a remedy for these conditions, and to succeed we must at least imitate her. Nature, by the decomposition of or ganic materials in the soil, produces what is known as humus, which tends to correct the above evils. It makes the soil light and flatulent, prevents packing from hard rains and facilitates circulation of both water and air in the soil as is best suited to the needs of vegetation. No soil can be highly fertile with out humus. Barnyard manure owes much of its value to the humus pro duced by the rotting of organic mat ter. Green manuring is a common method of producing humus. The farmer should at proper seasons turn under all the vegetable material at hand, provided it has no great mar ket value. In this way lie returns the contained nitrogen to the soil which otherwise is lost, and enlivens his soil by increasing the humus. Do not, however, turn under valuable crops. Sell tliem and plow under something cheaper. When conditions are favorable, the most profitable method of utilizing such a crop is by pasturing or feeding and return big the excrements to the land. In this way you pet the value of your crop and yet return almcfct all the plant food to the soil.—barnum'i Midland Farmer. SISTERS OF CHARITY RELY ON PE-RU-FIA TO FIGHT CATARRH WHEREVER LOCATED If!
