How to Get to Sleep.
Nervous people who are troubled
with wakefulness and excitability
kav usually a strong tendency ol
Mood to the brain, with cold extrem
ities. The prejKutre of blood "On trr
torsi n keeps It In a stimulated .'
wakeful state, and the pulsations, Im
the head ore often painful. U thee
symptoms occur In your ease, you
shonld rice and chafe the body and
xtrnnities with a rough towel, or run
smartly with the hands to proroou
circulation and withdraw the exces
sive amount of blood from the. brain,
after which you wlil probably fall
asleep in a few minutes. A cold bath,
or a spongo bath and rubbing, or a
rapid walk in the open nlr, or Koing
up and dow:i ctuirs a few times before
retiring, vlli aid in equalizing tin;

The advent of the telephone Into the
rural districts might luive been
expected to ir.trOuiieo im clement of
fvcxbness and vurlety Into the monot
ony of farm life. Hut some of the uses
to which this instrument 1ms been
adapted by inucnlous fnrm women
surely go br.vond the plcasnntcsl initio
Ipntlons of its Inventor.
In many of the counties of the middle
West the telephone has becon.c so pop
uhir that there Is one in almost every
farmhouse. Many Incidents attest the
adaptability of the Inxlrunicnt to the
varied needs of country life. One old
lady of well-known socinhiSity was
found by n chance caller sitting
plcnMinlly at her knitting, end wear
ing what at lirst appeared lo be some
curious headgear, but what, on a closer
view, was seen to be the telephone re
ceiver fixed to her head by nn old hut
band. All the telephone subscribers
on the road were on a single line, nnd
the old lady's ear was "hitched'' to
nil the private news nf the countryside.
In u not her Instance n young mother,
finding it necessary to go to a neigh
boring farm on household business,
look down the receiver nnd laid It near
her tleeplns: Infant, nnd rciucslcd
"l 'cull al" to "King mo up nt Mrs,
Hall's if you hear the baby cry."
.V. physician, making a country call,
found himself In want of something he
had left in town, lie went to the
farmer's telephone to request Hint it
be sent to horn. As be did so the un
mistakable click of receiver hooks
could be heard nil along the line. In
closing his conversation the doctor said:
"Now you mny all bang up your re

Farm wages and the cost of living
In "Merrie Knglnnd" of UOO years ago
present an interesting and suggestive
subject for reflection. Itr. W. .1. Rolfe,
In nn article In the April 7th issue of
the Youth's Companion, entitled "A
Warwickshire Farmer in Shakespeare's
Uny." says: "In 1504 u laborer got
foin'penee a dny, 'with meat nnd drink,'
or clghtpence to tenpence, finding him
self. Mowers got clghtpence with food
or fourteenpouce without it; renpers,
sixpence or twelvepence. In 1582 a
capon cost sixpence, a cult five shil
ling!!, a lirlcin of butter seven shillings
sevenpence, a cock (for fighting) four
pente, a pullet threepence; In 1583
a milch cow cost thirty shillings, a
bullock seven shillings, a calf five shil
lings, six horses seven pounds, a pork
ling twenty-elghtpenee. The prices of
other farm stock nnd produce were on
Ibe same scale. If wages were low,
the cost of living was proportionately
low, and the fare of the laboring
classes was more plentiful than often

COOD MILKISM.
Tests r.t the Ptorr's Kxperimcnt Sta
tion show conclusively tbat tbc amount
nf milk given by the cows a:id tho
purity of the product lwtb depend upon
the method adopted bv the milker. One
young man, wbt said be could-milk,
was given charge of the milking of
six cows. At the end cf a week the
quantity showed a shrinkage of twelve
per cent. In another experiment, in
which live boys, previously t.iught ns
to proper ucthods, were tested ns
J7.ilkc:, four increased the flow seven,
ten, trn anil live per cent., respectively.
The following instructions in regard lo
i lilking are ;n use ut tbc etntlon:
The milker should milk regularly,
t'lorouchly and (jtiietly. lie should
wear 1 1 an clothes w ash lilc hands be
fore l.i'giniJng t;j milk, imrt never wet
them while milking. The cow should
be brushed before being milked, and
her Haul; nnd udder wiped with u
ili.inp cloth i.i order t minimize, as
far us possible, the number of bacteria
fbiming about, in the vicinity of tho
pall, nnd likely to get into the ullk.
To tht same end. the foremilk should
be rejected, nnd the milking clone into
covered pails, with stia'.uers arranged
for the milk to pats through. Keject

TO WATKU OlTllOOU PLANTS.
In wet weather no plants need wat
ering. As long as the ground Is moist
iirtitlolul watering Is not necessary.
In protracted drouabls watering Is
Imperative. Well water, mid rain,
spring, creek or river waters are all
excellent, says the Ladies' Home Jour
nal. Instead of dousing nnd drying out
the ground every day It Is far better
to soak the ground well now and then
and try to retain the moisture in It.
This Is done by watering at night, nnd
the next morning scarifying the sur
face deeply with a sleel rake, or by
mulching with fertilizer, lawn mow
ings or half-decomposed tree leaves.
In watering give enough water al n
lime to penetrate to the lowest root;
little dribbles do little good. Water
plants when I hey are dry, no mattei
what time of day it may In. but the
best time Is In the morning and late in
tho afternoon and the evening. In
dry. hot, sunny weather do not water
plants overhead in the heat of the day; 1
some may stand it w ith Impunity, but
others, funkias, for Instance, may b!is-1
tor.
in watering from a hose ,-vr a water-j
lug pot, no matter how great the How ,
may be, lot. it fall gently, and never so
forcibly nn to rut the ground, and do
not dash it, against the ground or
nun Inst the stems or roots of theplatits.
Hut a good forcible dashing or hosina
nf walcr over the plants and in among
their branches ami leaves is excellent;
It refreshes them and kc."ps them clean
from dirt and insects, and enough may
fall upon the ground to satisfy the
loots.
Particular care should be shown in
having flower bed's and borders so r I
lunged that rain water shall never:
stay in pools about ihcm: have perfect
surface drainage. In artificial water
ing never let the water run off In ruts.

TI1INMNC, FltriT,
The advisability of thinning fruit I
coming to bo recogulxed by n larger j
number of fruit growers every yettr
and is more largely practiced tbati over i
before. It has not been very long'
slr.ee thinning was resorted to only ,
when extra fine specimens of fruit were
wanted for exhibition. Tho Idea of
thinning from a purely commercial
standpoint is a couiiinnitively recent i
one, and even at the present time its
practicability Is often questioned,
while not n few still maintain that it
is n loss of time and money to thin
lite crop.
That it is quite an undertaking, espe
cially iu a largo orchard, must be ml
inlttcd,' and yet we are Inclined lo
Ihluk that if judiciously followed, its
hoacfitrt will certainly be revealed and
that in tho end Its practice will place
the figures on t lie right tide of tho led
ger. Thinning may not bo resorted to
every year a:ul there are shy bearing
varieties which probably would re
quire no titlc:)tlon in tills lino at all,
but cu the oilier hand there are years
it ud varieties which should bo given
attention along ibis line. For n few
moments let us notico sonic of I lie
good results which are to bo hud from
the practice of Ibis method.
Iu tho firbt place, it is a protection
d the tree. Kvcry orchardist In the
.State has no doubt been tho loser ol
a tine tree simply .because he has neg
lected to, sen that It was not carrying
too large n loud, i'lils loss may have
occurred from a heavy wind storm
which broko tho treo down, when, If
it had not been supporting such a lo.id
of fruit it would have withstood the
storm without injury. Or perhaps the
entire tree was not destroyed, but n
branch or two was broken when, with
a littlo attention, all of tho duimigc
might have been prevented, ltut
I hero is another phase of this protec
tion to tlio treo which we aro not so
npt to observo simply because its re
sults aro longer in coming. Wo refer
to tho lessened vitality and premature
death of the treo from ovci'bearlnjf.

Tibetan Military Discipline.

at one place to sec Colonel Younghus
band In order to apologize for the con

attack upon tho Itrltlsh. They had
no business to fight at all, ho said, but
they hnd been egged on to do so from
Lhasa. He had admonished them as
a superior should; he bad bad them
beatcu! Not for a long time has there
been anything more comical In the
history of war and diplomacy. Tho
monks of a Tibetan monrstcry aro

Son of a Samurai.
Admiral Togo was third son of To
go Klchlzaemun. a samurai of the
clan of Sntsuma, and the father gave
hint the name of Helhachlro. He
wus born at Kogoshima on the four
teenth day of tho tenth moon of the
year of grace 1857. The gracious
period of Meiji (which hy iuterpre
tatlon means th era of cmMghtened
reign) began In 18(18 A. I. That
was also the birth date of the new
Nippon. After the sacred tradition
of a samurai family, his mother took
him to the slirino of a guardian dlety
and plucetl him upon the altar as
tho offering to his country and to the
sword, that ho might defend tho land
of tho gods. Like many another
boy of a fiamural family, his military
training dales back far beyond his
memory. October Century.
