8olvlng the Negro Problem.
Judge Fcag'in, o." Birmingham, Aln
Is winning goldrn opinions, Nortel
and South, by lila effort to save un
trained colored boys from the vicious
life they seem destined to by offer
ing them, when convicted of a seri
ous offense, the choice of the chain
gang or of being bound out to a negro
farmer of good character, who will
undertake to raise, educate and dis
cipline them and report monthly.
Within three months Judge Feagln
lias thus rescued 23 boys from asso
ciation with hardened criminals. The
Judge has besides innuguarated a pro
bation system, with the co-operation of
Intelligent negroes, with the result
that he has 175 boys under his care.
This Is the sensible way to handle
the negro problem to give negro
youth the discipline they don't get
In their homes or in the public
schools. Northerners who mix them
selves up with tho negro problem,
having all sorts of wild schemes of
hook learning and social equality, do
them more harm than good. "They
are making the negro drunk," saya
the Manufacturers' Record very truly,
"with the Idea of social equality,
drunk with the belief that a Tittle
book learning will emancipate him
from the need of work and sobriety,
and are thus dooming him to ruin.
The South wants to save the negro; it
wants to educate him Into honesty
and sobriety and steady work; it
wants to fit him to make a faith
ful worker in tho field and In the fac
tory, and It gives to h'im every possi
ble avenue of profltablo employment
as a worker for others or for himself;
but its efforts are being largely count
eracted by the well-meaning but. Ill
advised efforts of outside people who
know absoluiely nothing about the
situation." The Record, wh'ile having
no faith In the Og'len movement for
shaping Southern education according
to Northern Ideas, commends Judgo
Feagln's practical action as "well
worth following elsewhere." Tho
problem Is to convert vagrant colored
youth Into useful citizens, and the
judge has hit on the right solution.
Geographical Discovery.
One discovery made by an exploring
party in Abyssinia recently Is that
the river Oelo skirts the southern

The Milk Veins.
The mlllc veins found along the
stomach of the cow should be very tor
tuous. They wind about on the belly
and pass Into the body through orlflVes
In the rear of the fore flank. Their
duty Is to cenvey the venus blood to
tho lungs for purification. Hence, tho
larger the vein nnd the greater Its ram
Iflcnttons, the better Indication It Is
that the circulation of the blood
through the udder Is very lnrse; nnd
naturally, the larger the circulation of
the blood the greater will be the milk
production; because milk after all Is
really a product of the blood. Ameri

The 8outhdown Sheep,
The Southdown sheep still stands at
the head of all the mutton breeds for
quality of flesh, but some breeders fa
vor Shropshire, because It Is larger
than the Southdown and shears more
wool. The matter of wtol should not
be considered at all In the mutton
breeds. While the Shropshire Is a
breed that Is not easily excelled, yet
the Southdown can subsist where the
Shropshire would not thrive, and they
can also be kept In larger flocks than
any of the breeds' except the Merinos.
For improving the muttcn qualities of
common flocks the Southdown it
claimed to be superior to all others.
Improving the Meadow.
There are many meadows yearly
turned into pastures wbieu might bo
saved tor hay yields several years
longer with a little eare at the right
time. One of the best ways of doing
this at small expense Is to plow the
meadow early In August after manur
ing it well, and here Is a way of util
izing manure one is storing under the
shed, and which is going to waste, and
sow rye In early September at the rate
of two bushels an acre.
In April or as early as possible, plow
under the rye, smooth and sow with
grass seed, using a mixture best suited
to your section or using a mixture of
timothy, red top and clover, which Is
excellent In most sections, and will
not contain enough clover to injure It
for sale as prime mixed hay. Indian

The Colt the Coming Horse.
It should be remembered that If the
colt Is neglected in food or manage
ment there will be no good coming
horse. Sometimes the mare Is not a
good nurse, and which case the milk
may be supplemented with warm
fresh cows' milk, diluted one-third
with water. And a small amount of
bran or oil, meal may be added occa
sionally to keep the digestive organs
In a healthier condition, supply more
bone and muscle-forming food, and
give a sleeker finish to tho colt. Oats
should be added to the ration as soon
as the fcal is old enough to eat them.
By teaching the foal to eat grain ear
ly it can be weaned much more easily.
Plenty of good clean water should be
at hand at all times. A little attention
in these things will make a horse
twice as valuable when put on the
market or in the field. Indiana Farm
er. Exhibiting Crops.
Any farmer who will religiously fol
low his county fairs from year to year
will observe the opportunities there to
make a reputation If ho can grow one
particular crop better than another.
As everyone knows, one soil worker
Is an expert potato grcwer, another
raises prize swine, another understands
corn better than other crops, and so
on.
Let each one take a specimen of
that which he can grow best to the
county fair and exhibit. Possibly be
may not win a prize, but be will have
a chance to see what others are do
ing and thus ascertain bis own short
comings. Again, his exhibit may at
tract the at ten tic n of some one who
wants just the product he produces and
a profitable business Is worked up.
The educational advantages of the
county fair ought net to be overlooked
and t ek.famlly should be taken to ev
ery one that can bo reached at a mod
erate cost. Get out Into the world and
Bee what other farmers are doing; one
will find them willing to talk and one
may get enough gocd ideas at a single
fair to pay for the expense of attend
ance 20 times over. Bear this Item
tn mind as the fairs begin next month
and In September.
Civ the Boy Poultry.
As usual there Is loud complaint
from farmers that the children brought
up on the farm are getting uneasy and
want to try their wings elsewhere.
This is not to be wondered at Uhti
these young people bear and read of
what is going on in the world. The
monotony of country life seems un
bearable to them, especially when
from the farm they obtain only plenty
of hard work, tho food they eat and
the clothes they wear. True, one may
say that is about all any one goti out
of life, but If we can plan some way
by which the youueer people can make
a start tor themselves they ' will be
much more contented.
Poultry offers a vny of trying out
the feellug of the young folks at small
expense. Give them a chance to raise
poultry and have the proceeds for their
own use and in a year or two they will
tifrv toccouta reconciled to country life
and be willing to make It their future
or they will have shown their utter
lac k of adaptation for It, in which caB
the best thing for them and for the
parent Is to let them leave the farm
and take up the work for which they
aro better fitted, but don't loso your
grasp on tho young poop's without
first giving them a chance to do ior
themr.rlves on the farm and show what
is In them.
The Seeds Readily Take Root.
On nearly every farm there are sev
eral acres of protind deemed hardly
worth reclaiming, yet much of this soil
Is sufficiently strong to make a fair
growth of trees with little or no ex
pense. One hardly realizes how read
ily the native trees grow until some
thing calls his attention to It. The
writer has had mu h to do with grow
ing trers In the nursery, yet until this
summer did not realize how readily tho
seed of the well known sugar maple
sprouts. A number of pods wero blown
from a nearby maple and broken apart
by a small boy of an Investigating turn
pf mind. After satisfying his curiosi
ty, the pods were thrown lightly aside.
Some of the seed camo In contact
with the soil and last week four minia
ture maple trees some five Inches high
were found growing nlcejy.
In sections of tho country are locat
ed nurserymen who make a business
of supplying small seedlings of native
trees and at a juice so low it Is a
shame that there is not a grove of
trees on every farm In this country.
The time is not far distant when there
will be a great cry over the forestless
sections of tho country and we will
probably Import the lumber necessary
to build houses and make furniture
when by a little planting each year
this disaster would be avoided. Do
your share, reader, In increasing the
wood supply of the country; even the
farm wood lot will help in the grand
BRgregate.
Wheat for Fattening Kigt.
There are a number of states, nota
bly In the west, where corn cannot bo
grown, but where wheat thrives. Con
sidering the comparatively low price
that prevails and has prevailed for a
number of years for wheat, can this
grain be successfully fed hogs? A
number of farmers have asked this
question, and recently an experiment
was performed at the Oregon experi
ment station for the purpose of ascer
taining the value of wheat as a pig
feed. Oregon is a state where corn
cannot be grown except In favored
sections, and Iahave seen corn thrown
to hogs there and the swine would run
from It. It was Indeed like "casting
pearls before swine." But wheat.
Well, the results of the experiment
was such as to settle fully tho ques
tion of whether wheat could produce
pork equal In quality to corn-fed pork.
Tho fat of wheat-fed hogs is very
heavy and thick, and flrnr in texture.
The lean meat is very juicy, and light
in color. As to the rates of grain pro
duced, the results will compare very
favorably with any experiment ever
performed by corn feeding. Some
farmers mix oats, with wheat, chop
ping the two, and feeding it to the
pigs In this way. It has been found
that it is not advisable to do this. Pigs
do not like the coarse hulls which are
present in such abundance In chopped
oats. Chopped wheat alone proves to
be a splendid feed for hogs. On an average,-
and when fed judiciously there
are 13 pounds of gain for each bushel
of wheat fed. From tils It can easily
be seen that the western farmer who
Is obliged to sell his wheat for 38 or
even 55 cents a bushel, could much
better feed It to his hogs. Pigs should
be fed slops from the kitchen for a
while previous to the beginning of
the wheat ration. They should not
be -allowed to run at large, but should
be confined to a pen connected with a
small lot, to which the pigs can have
daily ' access. Each ration should be
weighed out and allowed to soak till
the next time for feeding. A handful
of salt should be added each feed, and
a double handful of charcoal fed twice
each week. The breed of pigs used in
tho particular experiment referred to
above, were Poland Chinas and Berk
shlres, the Berkshlres predominating.
The hogs were slaughtered when they
reached the age of 11 months. Dennis
H. Stovall, the Epltomlst.
The Wise Cat
"Labor saving inventions never do
any real harm to laboring men and
women." said Professor. 8. P. Langley,
the eclentlst and aeronaut. "They
who bemoau the appearance of labor
saving devices are unwise."
Professor Langley smiled.
"Such unplilloHoplilcal persons," he
resumed, "should learn a lovson from
tho stable cat. Have you heard of tho

GLOVES FROM RAT SKINS.
Only On Pair Wat Ever Mad and
It Was Vary Small.
A report comes from Copenhagen
that a great rat hunt has been or
ganised there and that the skins ot
many thousands of the victims are to
be used In making gloves. It the rat
bunters In the Danish capital ehorlnh
rny such hopes they are doomed to
disappointment.
Hat skins cannot be made Into
gloves fit for commerce. The belief
that a valuable raw material Is being
neglected hero survives only In the
minds of the Inexpert. The glove mak
er knows much better. A Norwegian
merchant ence rame to England and
; Informed a wcll kuown gltno maker
that ho had collected over 100,000 rat
ukliiB and was prepared to recelvo
offers for them. He wr.s fully con
vinced that the skins wero suitable
for glove making. Hut tho manufac
turer found that the lnrgcst skin was
only some six Inches long, and he hold
up a kid skin for the smnlloBt size ol
gl-e, a child's, which was eight Inch
es long, and asked how he was to cul
such a glove out of a rat skin.
Then he took up tho smallest kid
skin for a lady's glove, eleven Inches
long, and when he asked how that was
to be cut out of a rat skin the Nor
wegian merchant laughed at the Idea
and went away disappointed. The
best offer ho got for those skins,
Which he had collected with so much
rare, was five shllllngos a hundred
weight from a man who was willing
to boll them down for glue.
A famous glove making firm has a
collection of curiosities relating to
tho trade, and one ot thorn Is the larg
est pair of gloves ever mado out of
a rat skin. The belief that such sklna
could bo made Into gloves was laid
before the manneers so confidently
that they resolved to put It to the
trial, and they ordered a number of
the skins of the largest rats which
could be found In Grimsby. But the
rat la a fighting animal, and beara
'the marks of many battles on his body
and It was found that the skins were
so scarred and torn that It was with
the utmost difficulty that perfect
pieces lajrge enough for tho purpose
could be obtained. In the end, after
ten skins had been used, a pair of
gloves was cut and made, and they
are retained In the collection to this
day. But they are so small that they
would not fit the smallest of small
boys. Thus It was shown that, how
ever cheaply rat skins might be ob
tained, they would offer no advantages
to the glove maker. The rabbit skin
Is equally useless for this purpose,
and humnno people may also dismiss
from their minds tho fear that the
skins of pet dogs are made Into gloves,
Tho dog skin glove of which we used
to hear is made of nothing but the
skin of tho Cape goat. Pall Mall

A New Genius.
"A mere girl has just won tho much
coveted Sully Prudliomme prize for
tho best p.em of the year In tho con
test organized by the Soclote ties Gens
de I.ettres to fulfill the conditions of
tho Sully Prii'lhomme donation; the
poet himself having won the Nobel
prize, thus deslrej to consecrate a

phone girl end lives in a sixth floor

there are no more poets to bo found in
the garrets.
"Her name Is well known In France,
for It Is that of Boveral prominent
statesmen It is Marthe Dupuy, and
she is the daughter of a Bculptor. She
could not read at ten yars of age, and
later was left a penniless orphan.
"Like all true poets, her poems are
in the minor key, a pronounced vein
of sadness running through them. The
collection sent In to tho competition is
entitled "Idylle en Fleurs,' and is
plaintive In character. In the stylo of
Theocritus and Virgil. When she re

Is quite a fortune for her."
Cupid Break Up Art School.
Prof. Hubert Herkimer, the' noted
painter, has closed his well-known art
school at Bushey, near London, be
cause of the Irrepressible love making
of the students. The school was es
tablished by the professor 21 years
ago, and haa been conducted without
any gain to himself, but merely out a!
love for art.
The student work together. Of
late, especially, they have contrcted
the habit of falling In love with each
other. Eighteen couples out of 35 aro
now engaged.
Love making, the professor says, Is
far more seriously pursued than the
! study of art. So ho haa withdrawn
his patronnge from tho school, which
accordingly comes to an end.
Tho students indlgnuutly contend
that they aro at liberty to court when
the day's work Is over, and that
nothing contributes more to develop
ing artistic capabilities than love.

THE t'SE OF THE FnOG.
No horse can travel fafely without
tho use of the frog. Aside from Its
nll-essontlal necessity as the natural
rest of the liony structure upon tho
ground, its expansive power in keep
ing the hoof from contracting upon
the included Joints nnd Its promotion
by its action of circulation of blood to
the extremity of the hoof and conse
quent growth, the frog has a function
too often overlooked. It i the only
part of tho hoof that communicates
with the nervous Rystem, and through
that to the brain, nnd it is, therefore,
the only means thnt the horse has of
accurately determining his foothold
upon the ground. Upon no muscle In
the body is he more dependent for
hcnlthful. natural action, nnd from tho
moment tho frog is dl.iphiced by the
blacksmith's Iron the decay of the
horse's power begins. Contraction

CORN' MEAL I OR COWS.
A i, I tein is now- colng the round of
tho press that scours in calves nnd
some other troubles the on If was lilce
ly to have were due to the feeding of
corn incal to tho pregnant cow. This
Is absurd, unices of course the corn
meal constituted the entire ration
when It would likely Injure tho cnlf,
provided the cow lived to bear the
cull'. As n matter of fuct there is a
lot of nonsense written about the use
of corn In its various forms. Admit
tedly it i abused in tho feeding of
fnrm stock, but so long ns it is the
easiest of nil food crops to grow over
a liirKo nren of our country so long
must It form a major part of the ra
tion. If mistakes are made In feeding corn
It Is because it is not fed with sufH
clent variety or too much of It Is fed.
We believe that corn may be so niln

CI.EAXIXG rOCLTRY IIOfSKS.
It is hard to sny it, but It Is true
that only nbout ono house In ten

kept Is denned more frequently tluin
twice a year. Midsummer is a favor
lie time for tho semi-annual cleunli'.e,
and if this work is to be done this
stmmer it should be done thoroughly.
Select n day or two when It Is likely
to be dry, and turn all the fowls on
to the range. Next clean the floor
thoroughly, seeing that every bit of
Qllh is removed: take out nil the
nest boxes and burn them with their
conteuts. Then tho house is ready
for a thorough coat of whitewash, In

Draining swamp and putting lamp oil

there Is a fancy scheme for disgusting

held out by a genius that by blowing

flat ono can annihilate all the mos
quitoes within earshot, or that by
liberating a few phials of microscopic
parasites tho whole tribe may be
made to lie withered and strewn.
. While this hope Is entertained the tax
payer will bo unwilling to provide
means Tor the drainage and reclama
tion of the mosquito's breeding places.

loss of strength and nerve force told
mo something- wus radically wrong1
with inc. 1 hud severe rhootinff pains
through the pelvic orrrans. crnnipD and
extreme Irritation compelled mo to
seek medical advice. The doctor raid
that I had ovarian troublo and ulcera
tion, and ndvi&cd an operation. I
strongly objected to thin and decided
to try liydla K. Pinkbam's Vege
table Compound. I aoon four.d that
my judgment was correct, and that all
the good things said about thls.ii.rdi
cine were true, and day by day I fell
less pain and increased eppetite. Tb
ulceration soon healed, cud tho other
complications diuappc.ircd, and in
eleven weeks I was once more strong"
and vigorous and perfectly well.
