Mommstm and Lecky, tlie two fam ous historians whose deaths were s near together, served in the nations,' legislatures of Germany and England, says Collier's Weekly. Each was ( Liberal. John Motley Is a 1-lberal, so is Lord Kosnbory, and so is James Bryce, all writers on history, and tdm liar tendencies arc shown in the par liaments of other countries. Specu lative learning Is Hlcely to be liberal as property in likely to be conserva tive. Among the students of letters and history who have 'been recently serving in legislative bodies, the one to wield the most considerable influ ence In the two fields taken together was Mommsen. whose dominion as a scholnr extended ovr the whole world, while his Influence on Reman political thought was strong. He was a striking contradiction to Kenan's ar gument that a scholar is disqnalinVri by the nature of his thought from poli tics, because he must sve things as clearly as he can, without reference to conr.equcncPB, whereas the politician must calculate always immediate ro suits. Mommsen found no contradlc tlon. and no scholar need find one. In deed, men of learning are orten driven o politics to make their reaming real. Information without any root In life is usually what makes the pedant. FtT3rrmnnntlvMirM. Vo fltnrnrvom r'"'rir tint iliv's nn of lr. Kllno'i Opvv KrvnRetor-r.f2:rlfili:Hinnil tr"Mnfre lr.K.H.

X. ma ilii Hfifrr Profit In Gsod Covs. Tho farmer who does not Improve his stock can not compete In tho mar ket with tils progressive neighbor. The butter from n cow which pmtltic.es 10 pounds a week can be sold at 20 cents per pound, and give a larger profit than the butter from a cow giv ing only live pounds a week and Bold at 30 cents per pound. The use of choice cows reduces the number In th herd and saves labor, allowing also more room, while inferior rows com pel the dairyman to keep more cows t)'nan he should In order to make a profit. Philadelphia Rocord. Meadow Pasture. About four times as much material can be secured by cutting hay on the meadows as by pasturing stock on tho land, yet experiments demonstrate that more profit Is derived by pas turing the meadow plot than by using It from which to secure a crop of hay, owing to tlie groat saving and labor In the care required when cattle are given the use of pasture, while the greater digestibility and dietary ef fects of the green food secured on the pasture ore such as to promoto thritt of tti9 animals and Increase tho flow of milk, as well as add to tho weight ot Hi young stock. Corn and Milk. It Is claimed that 20 pounds of pork (live hop) can bo made from one bush el of corn, bat no portion of the corn must be wasted by lr.ck cf wnrm shnl ter or a variety of other food. Tho pos sibilities with corn depend on tlio con rltlons of mnnngfinont. Corn and milk will cive greater gc.ln than can be obtained from milk without corn, for the reason that one kind of food supplies ome element that may be lacking In t.:e other. Com Is defic ient in lime, yet lime Is essential in producing bone. Mill;, cut clover (scalded) and bran contain lime, but are not 03 fattening os corn. A combination of foods cheapens the cost of corn and other substances, be cause there is a greater gain in tae weight of the animal. Selling Water in Crops. Mom water Is Fold by farmers than any other substance, and It brlnr.s the highest price in rrcportion to cost than any material known. Wat?r is sold in so many forms, however, that Its value varies daily. A crop of green clover contains MOu pounds of water Pct ton, and when a ton of dry clover Is hauled to market 200 pounds cf the lotvl consist of water. Every hundred pounds of milk sold contain about 87 ponnda of wiitcr, and the mixed stable mnnttre which la rprend on the fields Is more than one-half water. No mat ter low dry or well cured the hay an.l fodder crops may be. from the farm er's point of view, chore will be wntcr to linnl that will to contained 1n the plants. A ton of enred corn rodder contains 573 pounds of water, and even salt hay, which is usuclly appar ently as dry as if passed tfiirougii a kiln, contains over 100 pounds or wa ter per ton. Tho farmer sella this water, and tlio more water ho ran sell the larger his profit, as the nitrogen ous and mineral matter taken from the soil by the plants 13 n direct loss unless the prko at which tho crop is sold 1 sufficiently large to reimburse tho farmer for .'.-..is loss of plant fond, as well as afford hlra s profit. Phil adelphia Record. Renewing Berry Field. With or, renovating an old bed Is a very simple problem. Hays Country Gentleman. Wo have merely to run over the bed with a mowing mnchino and with a horse-rake gnt'.irr tip tho vines and ot'her litter that may bo on the bed, which, is drawn off. Thou with our horse culflvator wo im mediately go over tho ground a suf ficient number of times to reduce the soil to tho required fineness. Wo work the surface up thus to u depth of four or fivo inches poihan. Here Is ono of the places where a fiorso-wceder is worth its weight in gold, almost. With this too we go over the surface length wise and cro?swlso until It is l?vel ana fine. This process also mellows tho .surface between tho plants to somo extent and tears off many of tho run ners. After this with a hand lioo we finish up t'.i Job cutting off all run ners and mellowing tho soil between tho plants. A dressing of barnyard manuro well rotted or of somo of ihe commercial fertilizers is something that Is very essential to success. We keep tho cul tivator, weedor and hoe going until snow flies, or fall rains make culti vation Jmposslblo. Wo must not for got to add that all runners are remov ed as fast as they appear. An old bed thus treated Is sure to make an excel lent showing the following season. The object or purpose of renovation is to induce a new growth of loaf and root and the , formation of new fruit buds. Advantages of Farm Poultrymen. A farm is t2ie best place for solid,, lasting success in any branch of tho poultry business. Plenty of room on cheap land Tavors a combination of low cost with natural conditions. Tho trouble with crowded condi tions is that too much money is usual ly put into bouses and fences, and the stock being more or loss in confine meat loses some of Its vigor after a few years. Thus, while the growers In close quarters may show fine rec ords for a while, mud on a small seals, the same methods ait) likely to fr.ll II applied to lariio establlhhmcuta for a long time. Moot of tho men who nrs making a living from busineus poul try keeping hnvo plenty of land In a good location, and have reduced cost of equipment and labor pretty cloea to bottom limit. Those who hnvo a largo trade In pure bred stork nre not obliged to enn slder cost so closely, but they ofton find their eggs hatching poorly and chicks feeblo and hard to raise, until they get relief by hiring tome farmer to raise them where tiiero are no pat ent coops, ventilators and elaborate seed mixtures, but, Instead, plenty of grass, insects, fruit and milk, together with the ceaseless running about need' ed for growing animals. Nobody can compete with farmers who really understand the business. Too many of them consider chickens bardly worth much notice. And those who have the knowledge and dispo sition to give them decent attention can, produce them at lowest cost, at the same time increasing the vigor of the stock instead of running It down To learn to be a good poultry man of fers one of the best openings for a young farmer whose tastes lead In this direction. Massachusetts Plough man, lalry Chat The best way to prevent a butter bowl from splitting Is to nib It well with frest lard before It has ever been wet. Heat the lard and grease the bowl Inside and out Just as long as the wood will absorb tho lard, which will usually be a largo cupful. A small brush is a convenient article to use about cleaning tho churn and dairy utensils, os It is difficult to clean the corners of the churn und seams of the pans with a cloth, and when these nre neglected they make fine breeding idaces for mlcrobee. A good way to clean tho wire piece of the milk strain er is to rub It both Inside and out with dry unit and then shake it thoroughly Ileforo beginning the work of tinrn lng one should have plenty of boiling water ready to use as soon as the churning Is finished, aud the sooner the milk and butler are removed from the churn the less trouble it will be to clean. Cold water should be used first to wash olt the milk adhering to the side, and then scnlding water must be freely used and In such a way that it will reach the corners and crevices Then dry the churn iu the shade first and place It In the gun, for If It Is set In the sun while wet tho wood Is apt to pet warped. In most cases sour milk Is the result of tho cans not being properly washed, and the best method of cleaning them Is to first wat-h tho pans in warm water and then scnld thoroughly and set In the sun to dry. There should bo plenty of cloths to uso about tho dairy, and a good plan In to have two sets of cloths and use them on alternate days, snnnlng when not in u'O. The cloths may be kept clean and white until they are entirely worn out if they ore boiled every other day In n Ptrong suds, bnt they should be washed out In warm water first. When removed from the boiling water they should be rinsed carefully. Then the cloths must have n good airing and sunning to keep them fresh and sweet. Farmer's Advocate. Poultry Notes. Pry food Is nature's food for fowls. Never scare the liens. Keep tho breeders tiappy. A littlo neglect will often coat a big loss. Avoid draughts upon the fowls at night. Bet eggs that are as nearly allko as ponaible. Your home market always demands fresh eggs. The largest breed Is not likely to be the best. An acre is sufficient to keep one Hundred hens. Set only good eggs from the best hen as nearly as you can select them ua not set poorly Bhclled eggs, alxM-mally large or Bmall eggs from hens that are not In good condition If no trap nests are used pick out the best hens, cs nearly as you can Judge, ami pen thcra by themselves with the best male you have or can afford to gut If trap neat8 are used set the eggs of the best Inyers provided the eggs are of normal size, have good strong i4mlls. tnd tho hens who laid them a.-e all right and in vigorous health. A Typical Guide Gone. Many frequenters of the Upper Snr anac region In the Adironducks will learn with regret of the death of John Wesley Wood from heart disease at the camp of Dr. Ward, of which he had been In charge for many years. Mr. Wood was a fine typo of the old time independent Adirondack guide native bom, Intelligent, shrewd, strong, kindly, wise In all the lore of tho forest and waters, a master with the rifle, rod, paddlo, axe and "cooking kit." Mr. Wood had been a guide for 30 years, and served Grover ClevelanJ when too latter was at Saranac Inn. Tremendous Rainfall. The annual rainfall on the Khasla hills, to tho northeast ci Calcutta, amounts to some 600 Inches, 600 inch en of which fall In seven months dur ing the southwest monsoon. It Is un doubtedly the wettest spot on the globe. As many as 150 Inches have beon registered in five cousecutlve days, or an average of 30 Inches a day. This astonishing amount Is due to the abruptness of the mountains which face the bay of Bengal, from which tbey are separated by 200 miles of low swamps and marshes. AN HEF.2CITARY CONTRACT. Machines by Which Stamps Are Can celled, Mads by One Family. Since 18.15 all the ni.c'.ilncs by which postage stamps nre canceled and envelopes marked, with the nam" of the postollico, the date n:id no forth, have been made by one family. In the year named the potmn:'.tor general entered Into a contract with Dcnjamlu Chambers, a citizen of Washington, to furnish a device by which postage stamps mlgCit be canceled so that they could not be used again, and although there have been a multitude of com petitors on several occasions, that contract has been renewed year after year for 65 years with Mr. Chambers, his son and his grandson, who have a secret process by which the dlos are made of malleable Iron and carbonized Into steel at a cost of from 60 cents to )2.76 each. It Is certainly the only government contract, and probably the only contract In t'ae United States, that has been renewed so often and ccntlniied so long. The department buys about 25,000 worth of new can celors every year. Bids are advertised for annually, and every now and then some ambitious manufacturer who thinks ho has a good thing offers o proposal, but the Chambers family aro Invincible. They have Improved the device until It Is now almost per fect. Tho stnmper Is a circular cast-steel box (with a screw thread), cue end of which Id closed, and Is provided on tho outside with a square rlinnlc to secure It to tho hardwood handle. The cover of tho box Is a dial; of steel. A portion of Its thickness enters the box by means of a screw thread nround Its periphery of almost 0 threads to one Inch.

Helen, whose elopement cauised the Trojan War, was a Grecian prlncea, celebrated Iu mythology for her beaii' ty. She was tho wife of Menelaus, but during his absence from Sparta she fled with tho Trojan prince, Paris, to Troy. The siege of Troy by tho Greeks ensued, and was only terminated by the destruction of the city. Paris hav ing been killed during the siege, she became the wife of Drlphobus, his brother; but after the taking of the city, she betrayed him to the Greeks, and returned to Sparta with Menelaus, whose forgiveness she had re.-eived. After tlie latter's death she was forced to leave Sparta, and retired to Rhodes, where the quosn of that Island, Polyxo, whoso husband, Hepolemus, had been cllled at Troy, cauticd her to be seized while bathing, tied to a tree and strangled.
