T THE NEW INDIAN Once Picturesque Red Man Appear In Ranks of Western Farmers. A now series of Indian portraits Is needed. The "noble red man" of Fenlmore Cooper and of Catlin, the fierce figure In war paint and feath ers, lost his romantic Interest when he was confined to a reservation and fed on .rations. Now the stall-fed reservation dweller has been sup planted in turn by the new man, In dian only In blood and traditions, who 1b stepping up to take his place in the life of the West. The pictures that are to represent the new Indians will include a short-haired, dark-facet! man. dressed in black slouch hat, fflngy white cotton shirt, blue over alls, and hob-nailed shoes. He may be a Kiowa farmer who gathered GOO bushels of corn from 20 acres of cul tivated land last year, or one of the 891 Pine Ridge Indians who put tip ,700 tons of hay to carry their stock through the winter. Or he may be Plenty Buffalo, who has worked with team and scraper on the Huntley ir rigation project in Montana for six months ;or Bert Fredericks, the Hopl night foreman on the tunnel at the ZunI dam in Arizona. The pictures will also depict the Indian woman as mistress of a prairie cabin, feeding the chickens or carrying food to the calves and pigs. They will Include a group of chil dren dressed very like white chil dren, trotting off to day school at 8 O'clock, with their noon lunches In packages under their arms. A big eanvas to hang beside the old paint ing of the war dance will show 2,000 Sioux attending a convocation of the Episcopal Church at White Swan, Bouth Dakota, and listening to ad dresses from Bishop Hare, or from their own clergyman, Amos Ross, a full-blood. Drain on Uncle Sam's Cash. The current report of the postmas ter of New York shows that the money order division of that great jiostoffce did a business last year of $446,000,000. But the most striking Item in it is that of this total no less than $71,000,000 was in money orders sent ro countries of Europe by Immigrants, who, having acquired re munerative employment In the "land of the free," have been enabled to transmit that sum bark to their old homes. This is another drain of American capital to foreign parts of which little is ever thought. And this, he It remembered. Is but the money transmitted through one single office. What must the aggregate for the entire country be? Wheeling Register. SO The Rose In History. When the captive Jews in Babylon hung their harps upon the willows, the air was sweet with the fragrance of growing roses; and upon returning to their own land, the exiles are said to have carried with them seeds of the flowers, which had brightened their captivity. Thus Syria became the home of roses. Even the name of this country is derived, according to some philologists, from "Seri," meaning "a wild rose." In the Sans Vrit.the oldest of Hindoo myths de clares that Vishnu found his wife in the heart of a rose. Since the days of Vishnu, many another has found his wife, if not in the heart of a rose, by means of a rose. "My love I speak in flowers," and the rosebud has been especially iatrusted with the lover's message. The Circle. Light-Producing Trees. Several well-known trees furnish pood materials for light. There is the Japanese wax tree, for example, which bears bunches of fruit, grow ing like grapes, and contains a kind of wax, out of which candles are made. Another tree, found In the Pacific islands, and known as the candlenut tree, bears a fruit that Is full of oil. The nuts themselves are used as candles, and will burn for some time. Still another Is the can dle tree, the fruit of which is three or four feet in length and about an Inch in diameter. The fruit hangs from the tree so as to present the appearance of yellowish-white candles In a chandler's shop. Chicago News. MEAT Oli CEREALS A Question of Interest to All Careful Persons. Arguments on food are Interest ' Ing. Many persons adopt a vegetar ian diet on the ground that they do jot like to feel that life has been c.ken to feed them, nor do they fancy the thought of eating dead meat. On the other hand, too great con sumption of partly cooked, starchy oats and wheat or white bread, , pastry, etc., produces serious bowel troubles, because the bowel digestive organs, (where -starch Is digested), are overtaied and the food ferments, producing gas, and microbes gener ate in the decayed food, frequently bringing on peritonitis and appendi citis. Starchy food is absolutely essen tial to the human body. Its best form is shown in the food "Grape Nuts," where the starch is changed Into a form of sugar during the pro cess of its manufacture. In this way, the required food Is presented to the system in a pro-digested form and is immediately made into blood and tissue, without taking the diges tive organB. A rourarkable result In nourish ment is obtained; the person using Grape-Nuts gains quickly in physical and mental strength. Why in men tal? Becauso the food contains del icate particles of Hiosphate of Pot ash obtained from the grains, and this unites with the albumen of all tood and the combination Is what i nature uses to rebuild worn out cells In the brain. This is a scientific fact that can be easily proven by ten days' use of Grape-Nuts. "There'a a Reason."

Among the meats generally eaten there is none which has so high a percentage of nutriment as mutton. The fact is not generally appreciated as well as It shoujd be. Not only is it true that mutton contains a higher percentage of nutriment, but it is con-' sidered by all authorities as the most wholesome meat and the only wonder is that It is not more generally used. Agricultural EpItomisU Green Food fer Chicks, An excellent green food for young chicks can easily be provided through the expenditure of a lew cents for oats. A half bushel of oats should be placed In a shallow box so that the entire mass is two two four inches deep. This should be sprinkled with water daily until the seeds have become saturated when they will sprout and continue to send up tender green shoots. Vtry young stock may be fed the shoots only, while older chicks oan be given seed and all. Farmer's Home Journal. Methods of Milking. Milking most be regular and fre quent if the flow is to be long sus tained. A doe giving a large quantity should be milked three times a day, to prevent wasting, as the milk easily es capes from a too greatly distended ud der. A milch goat has two teats and is milked in the same manner as a cow. These animals are very gentle and can be milked by children, especially when feed Is given at milking time, and they are extremely easy to manage in every way. The young are ready to breed at one year of age. They should have a tolerably rough range, and not be kept too fat. Farm Journal, Philadel phia. Good Tools Needed. A good farmer needs good tools, and good tools deserve a good tool house, which means one with plenty o room to use the tools as well as to keep them handy and safe. A large, well-stocked tool house goes far to solve the rainy day problem. If the farmer and his men are handy with tools there will be plenty of work for all weathers and at all times of the year. Almost any body may easily become a good enough carpenter, blacksmith, painter, harness maker and plumber; that is, good enough for farm emergencies and for use of time that would otherwise be wasted Lack of convenient tools and place to use them is all that prevents saving many a dollar. American Cul tivator. Buy Brood Mares. Never has there been such a demand for brood mares as there is this spring. Here is just one Instance of how farm ers are buying up good mares that will breed. At the Chicago Stock Yards recently, a fine Shire mare was offered for sale for $150. She had been injured in a car smash up, and it was uncertain whether she would breed or not The farmer was willing to chance $150 on it, and took the mare home. The demand Is largely for heavy draft mares, and prices are running from $200 to $250. When such prices are paid one should get good, sound ones, those that will weigh from 1400 to 1600 pounds. Then breed only to the best draft stallions. With right care a good mare will raise a good colt every year, and do her share of the farm work. Indiana Farmer. Sugar for Tired Horses. From France comes the information that good results have been obtained from the use of sugar to overcome the great fatigue In horses when over worked. The horses employed in the service of the National Military Col lege tn transacting the business of the establishment are exposed during the rainy season to great strain and con sequent exhaustion as a result of slip pery roads and the increased amount of transportation due to certain con ditions then prevailing. For this reason many horses in past years have succumbed to the excessive strain, very many become sick. Path ogenic microbes found In the prevail ing conditions favorable fields for their development, and fatigue caused great loss of appetite, loss of flesh, pulmon ary lesions, cardonic disturbances, etc. The good results obtained by a mil itary surgeon from the use of sugar in large doses In forced marches led him to employ it for the purpose of over coming fatigue. Two hundred grains of sugar were fed daily, mixed with the horse's food, and distributed regularly throughout the day. Not only did the fatigue disappear, but many anlmaU until then useless because of their mis erable condition recovered their nor mal strength and rendered good ser vice. Indiana Farmer. Loyal Bob White. We have always sounded the praises of that farmers' friend, the Bob White, and we. are always glad to quote any thing in corroboration of our state ments. A writer In Successful Farm ing says this about him: "The ornithologists of the depart ment of agriculture have been mailing aa Investigation of the economic value of tye bob-white as a result of which it is announced that the bird is prob ably the most useful abundant species on the farms. Field observations, experiments and examinations show that it consumes laixe quantities of weed seeds and de stroys many of the worsj Insect pesta with which farmers contend, and' It does not Injure grain, fruit or other crops. It is figured that from Septem ber 1 to April 90, annually, in Virginia alone, the total consumption of weed Beeds by bob whites amount to 637 tons. Some of the pests which it also destroys are the Mexican cotton boll weevil, which damages the cotton crop upward of $16,000,000 a year; the po tato beetle, which cots off $10,000,000 from the value of the potato crop; the cotton worms, which have been known to cause $30,000,100 loss in a year; the chinch bug and the Rocky Mountain locust, scourges which leace desola tion In their path and have caused losses of $100,000,000 in some years. Certainly measures should be passed to preserve this valuable bird." It is to the best interest of the farm ers to afford this valuable bird ade quate protection from the inroads of the merciless pot hunter. No farm is complete without the presence of Mr. Bab White. Pruning Fruit Trees. Begin early In the life of the tree to shape it, A young tree should con sist of a central leader with the mala branches dlctrlbuted evenly about it, forming a well-balanced head. On no account should a tree be set with a de cided fork in the trunk. The point at which a limb should be removed is just at the upper part of the shoulder, which will be at the base of ench limb where it joins the main trunk. If we cut closely, the size of the wound la In creased without in any appreciable ex tent decreasing the Bize of the Btub. If the 'cutting is further from the tree, the scar is still the same size, and a long stub is left over which it will take a tree years to grow. If possible, avoid removing large limbs; and the best way to do this is to begin when the tree is young and prune it systematically and carefully. If it is necessary to remove a large limb, use a saw, cutting it a short dis tance from the bottom first, then saw down from above, and the limb can be removed without fear of splitting off below. Large wounds should be re moved without fear of splitting off below. Large wounds should be smoothed over with a knife, then cov ered with gum shellac dissolved in al cohol. In a general way, summer pruning promotes fruitfulness, while If wood growth Is desired, prune in winter. The explanation of thfs Is that great growth and great fruitfulness do not go to gether. A plant must reach a cer tain degree of maturity before it will produce fruit, and an abundance of plant food at the time the buds are forming is desirable for best results. Now, if by summer pruning part of the branch is removed, the growth Is checked, and as the part removed les sens the demand for plant food, it can be devoted to the production of fruit buds. Correspondence of Green's Fruit Grower. It Pays to be Honest. The general manager of a traction system of a Western city recently re ceived the following communication, together with a five-cent pieee: "I beg to advise you that a week or two ago I rode home on Car 1999, of your Main street line. The car was very crowded, and the conductor, through no fault of his own, failed to reach me: When I left the car be was too far to the front to enable me to get to him. I therefore now remit you the amount of my fare, and beg to say that I would have done so sooner had It not been that I was out of town." This unusual occurrence was report ed by the general manager to the road's board of directors, with the result that by their instruction, an annual pass was seat to the honest patron, to gether with a letter couched in compli mentary terms. .The recipient must have recounted his expedience to his neighbors, for in ' a little while the manager received a letter from anoth er patron, reading: "In view of the fact that yesterday I neglected to pay my fare on your line I herewith enclose a five-cent piece. Kindly forward pass to address be low." Philadelphia Public Ledger. An Indian Tradition. At the government house in Poona, India, every cat which may happen to pass out of the front door after dark is saluted by the sentry, who presents arms to puBsy. Tradition relates that In 1S38 Sir Robert Grant, governor of Bcmbay, died in the government house. On the evening of the day of his death a cat was seen to leave the house by the front door and, walk up and down a particular path, where the late gov ernor had been in the habit of stroll ing after sunset. A Hindoo sentry ob served this, and told a priest, who de clared that in the cat was Gov. Grant's soul, and it should be saluted. As the particular cat could not be identified by the sentry, It was decided to pre sent arms to all the cats. New York Time. THE HOVSEKPBPEK. To Move Parlor Stove.

After covering the broken edges with the mixture . and pressing the parts firmly together ex pose the object to the sunlight. The junction practically will be invisible and the solution insoluble even in boil ing water. Labor-Saving Device. All housewives know the difficulty of .keeping the carpets, etc., under the beds free from dust and fluff. The following method will be found a sav ing of labor: Take a piece of un bleached cotton the size of the bed, bind neatly. This should be laid on the floor and fastened securely at each corner, either by safety-pins to the carpet, or by tapes to the feet of the bed. This can be removed and shaken free from dust. To Test Linen. A test for linen, snd one In vogue with old fashioned housekeepers, is to dampen the finger and hold it be neath the material. If the moisture appears on the sur face it is a pretty good test that the material is linen, but if there is no dampness visible, then one may be pretty sure that the material is, if not all, at least part cotton. Cotton absorbs the water, while the linen does not. Another very good test for linen is to unravel a portion, taking a couple of threads, one of the warp and one of the woof, and to touch a match to them. If cotton is present in the weave the thread will burn quickly, leaving a charred bit. If linen, it will be longer in burning. Flttsburg Press. To Clean Black Silk. The Parisian method of cleaning black silk is very Bimple and the result Infinitely superior to that achieved in any other manner. The silk much be thoroughly brushed and wiped with a cloth, then laid flat on a board or ta ble and well sponged with hot coffee, thoroughly freed from sediment by be ing strained through muslin. The silk Is sponged on the side intended to show. It is allowed to become par tially dry, and then ironed on the wrong side. The coffee removes every particle of grease and restores the bril liancy of the Bilk without Imparting to it either the Blimy appearance or crackly "and papery stiffness so often resulting when other methods are used. The silk appears by the coffee pro cess, and this good effect is permanent. Pittsburg Press. Recipes. Ripe Tomato Sandwiches. Prepare a French dressing and dip Into it slices of raw tomato peeled.
