' - Northern farmers in the South are surprised at the difficulty there is grow ing nutritious gi-assea.

An intelligent young mother some days si ace asked how she could pre serve her child's linen clean and sweet when changed frrquetitty daring the day. I directed her not to dry by tbe tire, but ia tbe son and open sir, if the weather perm! tied.

Don't be in a hurry to buy more land until you have got what you al ready have up to Its maximum produc tiveness. ' Put coarse manure where you want a mulch, and fina where you want it to speedily mingle with and enrich tbe seil. : . Minnesota feeds only eight per. cent. of the 16,000 tons of oil-cake produced there, the balance being ebipped to England. An insect is ravaging wheat and rye beards in parts of New Jersey, and far mers will sell greater parts of their en tire crop as straw. The poorer tbe road, the greater the wear and tear and the consumption of time, and hecce the heavier the tax for travelling over it. According to Dr. Collier, growing animals take only 6 per cent of the man u rial value out of their food, and milch cows 91 per cent..

Soapsuds should be added to the manureheap. - Never waste such. Later in tbe season suds may be ap plied to asparagus and celery with ad vantage.

She followed my directions, but, as is too often the practice, dried and, aired it at a nursery-window. Her fastidious husband remonstrated in vain against tbe unsemingly ' ex posure. Believing tbat if she saw her practice as others taw it, she would desist, he so directed their afternoon walk as to bring the nursery-wladow In full view from a central part of the town. Stopping abruptly, be pointed to tbe offending linen, flapping con spicuously In the breeze and asked sarcastically. "My dear, what Is tbat displayed in our window?" "Why," of our union.

Two ounces of coffee, orone eighth of pound, to one pint of boiling water maks an excellent beverage, but tbe water must be boiling, not merely hot.

It is the custom to believe that tbe most impure water will be rendered pure by boiling, and that an absolute safeguard against the danger of water containing disease germs is thus afford ed. ' While it is true tbat boilicg will kill tbe germs of disease, yet tbe fact has been pointed out by the very high est authority tbat while boiling kills the germs of a particular disease, W yet, In realUy, renders the water more 1m' pure than it was before, because by tbe very death of these germs, dead organ le matter is allowed to remain In tbe water, which is shortly polluted by putrefaction. Hence, while boiliog is a most excellent precaution against the occurrence of typhoid fever or similar diseases it must be borne In mind tbat tbe water is. not necessarily purified, but that simply the power to produce a specific dlxease is removed.

Where wild blackberries are so fine end so' plentiful as they are all over North Carolina it is bard to get grow ers to realize that there is large profit in cultivating them. Tbe low prices at wbicb the wild berries usually sell lead tbem to suppose tbat the cultivat ed fruits would go In tbe same rate. This is a great mistake. In Baltimore while the wild berries shipped in buckets are selling for a song, tbe cul tivated ones shipped In quart boxes ana packed in crates bring a better average price than strawberries, and many-growers in Maryland and Del aware consider tbem more profitable. Tbe sorts now cultivated have been selected from wild plants at tbe North. We bave among ns many wild plants which produce very snperior fruits. Will the farmers and fruits growers co-ope rat with us in developing a blackberry that will bring' money to their pockets? If you know or find a ild plaot with very superior fruit,' mark It, and next fall, In November rend the plant to the N. C Agricul tural Experiment Rljtion at Raleigh. Do tbls and aid us in making tbe Sta tion the source of real profit to farm ere, truckers and fruit-growers.- W. FMaasey, HorlfculiBTieiv ntear Rata Is aTeraaed, The old and celebrated theory first advocated by Dr. Hutton, that rain is produced by mingling of strata of air of different temperatures and contain ing different amount of moisture, Is no longer entertained by meteorologists. Cold and warm currents cannot mix, and could only produce between them thin layers of clouds, the vapor con densed being Insufficient to fall as rain. Epsy, some forty years ago, suggested the true theory. Bain Is formed by ascenuiog currents of moist air. If from any cause a mass of air takes an up war a movement, as It ascends it comes under less pressure, expands and Is consequently dynamically cool ed. It has been found tbat tbe rate of cooling Is abottt one degree for each hundred yards of ascent. In tbe con densation of tbe moisture after ascend ing there result: First, tbe formation or a cloud with IU center bulging far above tbe edges, a In the common inunaer clouds; next, some of the particles mingle into small drops which are carried upwards by tbe rising col umn or air until they combine with others produced higher up, and form ji .... urops too large 10 De supported and The N.

The collecting and1 curing of the1 leaves of tbe wild sumacs occupies for several of the summer months the time) or hundreds of Women and children n Virginia and tbe Carolinas. This prH duct, which would otherwise bo waaU ed, distributes among tbe poorer coun try people of North Carolina alone the large sum of $6,000 to $$,000 annually; Northern buyers of sumao complain tbat the gatherers carelessly or dishon estly mix with tbe pocked leaves' ' sticks, stones and other trash. This U very wrong and does not benefit tbe packers, as buyers always remove such! trash before weighing,' and deduct from' the price of tbe leaves the cost of re moving tbe trash and freight on same.

At tbe tenth census there was attain ed by Special Agent North a very unique collection of over 11,000 news papers and periodicals published In the United States . during the census year, wbicb collection was arranged, bound and deposited for preservation at tbe Congressional Library.
