When Cyrus was king there was seldom a thing He didn't have done as he happened to please. His orders were laws, barring one little j clause Which said the king never could change his decrees Now the king had a wife whom he loved as his life I might parenthetically stop to de clare Ue'd many beside, for lie oft took a bride. But that's neither here, nor in dh kosh, nor there. This wife had a corn, so arising one morn. She into the dressing room stealthily crept. And, bolting the door, sat her down on the rloor To trim the excrescence the A hile the king slept. Tii an hour after that when II is Majesty sat. And suffered his chin to be soaped by a slave. r or i y rus was rearea not to swtar Dy u in oearu. So he took every morning a lather and shave. One swoop of the blade and the angry king made All Iran resound with the woe of his wail ; He ripped aDd he tore, and bo swagger ed and swore And ordered the inni.ceiit Imrber to jail. Then the favorite wife, w ho had dulled the keen knife. Fell off in a swoon aa ehe heard the decree: Whoever had fooUd with that razor, 'twas ruled, Next morning at sunrise beheaded should be. When the king knew the fact 'twas his wife who had hacked That razor, he tried to hava things re arranged, But the men of today will be pleased when I say That the edict was issued and could not be changed.

Now that the fall seeding of oats ciaim attention, it may oe pront- j nine w cuusiuer some oi me ptjcuu- arities of this plant. In the first place it is a very hardy, thrifty, and we might say shifty, plant.

It is not best, perhaps, for flanoin rtf Hnr.h lanH hnrin J ' " an emergency, such land could be utilized for an oat crop. Again the oat has great loraging power ability to get food from soils where other cereal plants oonld not. Hence it will grow on poorer soils than most other grain crops, and its lot has been to be as signed to poorer fields. One reason is it call for less nitrogen than other grain crops. Lxpenments 1 shown that maximum crops j of oats, rye and wheat, call for res-, pectively 50, 64 and 84 pounds of nTtrogerl to the l.OOO.OOOoaods of wnica j3 about one-third the sou ot an acre to the depth ot nine inches. Put the nitrogen it does i nlU,l fnr ntinnAnc.lr ,ln, ! . . .. . , , ine its growtn, nence a net ia 01 1 I some soluble form of nitrotren should be applied when the seed is sown and an additional quantity in a more insoluble form, which will yield nitrogen gradually and suc cessively.

Phosphate is indispensable to the oat. Its influence is specially shown in the increased production of grain. A liberal dose of phosphate with a moderate one of nitrogenous matter meets the requirement of this crop. Two hundred pounds each of acid phosphate and cotton seed meal per acre would make a good ratio for an oat crop. The oat crop needs a large quan tity of water for its full develop ment. Experiments have shown that, other things being equal, the crop increases up to the point where 00 to SG per cent of ;ls much : water as the soil can hold is pres i ent. This explains the peculiar adaptation of bottom lands to this i crop; also, how short the crop is in dry springs, on uplands. This ex-, plains, in part, the larger yield of i fall oats compared with spring I sown, ine nrst matures or does i its wort before the reserved mois-, itureinthe sou from winter rains ' Is exhausted. This is one of the strongest points of the fall sown crop, it explains also in part why S'itiS retainer and absorber of moisture. Would it not be well to sow down in oats a good slice of the bottom land on every larm. As a rule such lands have been run a long time in com and need a change. 'or, let ns see what useful de ductions oan be drawn from above, to assist in carrying a crop of fll oats safely through the winter. ;8ow on rather damp land, because ' oats delight in moisture, and will thus be strong and vigoroas. Sow : on rather light soil, not on heavy clays, and on land rich in humus. Give good dressing of phosphate, and a light one nitrate soda (50 pounds per acre; to start the plant off healthy and vigorous, so that it will make stroDg roots, and 200 pounds of cotton seed meal, or 20 bushels of cotton seed, to keep up siinnlv rf nifrocpn us needed throuph the whol prowine season. ro tfl ,,nlrllrm rfenth of one Loer f fUQlfo Ueff Uf t plants may came up and grow at he s&me time. There is nothing 0it pjy very ieep covering. There :iswme advantage in having the yonng plants in a little trongh or depression like that left by a drill, it is thereby protected somewhat from cold winds. If the crop is started early and seasons make it very forward,- light grazing (by calves) will make the plants spread and hng the ground, and this is de cidedly advantageous. NY. I..

The official lelations between the two countries are of course good, but they are not cor dial. Care is taken not to tread on each other's corns, and when that . evil hour occurs vociferous 'beg pardons' are heard on every side. Unfortunately this friction is in cessantly taking place owing to the action of the frontier officials of both Germany and Prance: and after awhile some one will wake up and announce that a beg pardon is no recompense for down trodden corns. Then there will arise an in terminable correspondence which will lead to nothing but recrimi nations from both sides.

The elder members of the Diplomatic Corps in Berlin, we who know Bismarck's complicated character, feel convinced that one of the these days some little incident like the Svunaebelo affair will bring about a war : and the task of M. fler beette at Berlin is, in my opinion, to postpone that declaration of war as long as possible. I believe that he will for sometime meet w ith success, and I have not the slight est fear of a conflict arising at any early date. Both the Kaiser and the Prince Imperial are very sick men, and not in the least desirous of war. Every move that Bismarck makes or causes to be made on the European chessboard is directed against Prance. To such an extent has he exaggerated at Berlin the military preparations in Prance that there are many millions of people in Germany who today be lieve that across the border, in the vicinity of INancv, there are thou sands and thousands of Turcos, Zouaves and Chasseurs Tonkinois , . ? ready to pounce upon Germany. The diplomat concluded by stating that Germany alone is re sponsible for the lrontier lriction, and that if such a cool, prudent man as M.

He was surrendered to an officer from New York in obedi ence to a requisition from the Governor of that State. Senator Vcorhees on Uooiu-. Senator Voorhees. of Indiana, who was in Kansas City recently, being asked as to politics, paid his compliments to Blaine and Tuttle as follows: "It is difficult to fore cast the political situation with any degree of accuracy. To my mind it is pretty rUain that Blaine, if he wants it, can have the nomination of the next Republican convention. The little booms for Sherman and other aspirants always boom up just before the convention meets only to demonstrate how weak and shallow their claims are. The ac tion of the Pennsylvania State con vention has undoubtedly struck the keynote of the Republican shib boleths for the next campaign. The rebel Hag incident and the iulant industry argument will be the stock-in-trade of the campaign ora tors. By the way, speaking of the rlag incident reminds me of the man who hael a neighbor who used to euter his barn at all times and borrow his horse. He used the horse so much that lie thought he had a right to it superior to that of the owner. The accommodating owner grew tireel of maintaining the beast for the benefit of his neighbor, and one night went over tQ tuat gentleman's house to get uiai. giuucui lue 'J"'"- u,eL t he who uciuuui suuiSuu in iuuu, refused to give up the animal, say ing: -1 know the horse is yours, but it's very impolite of you nosing arounel my house in the night. Come in the daytime and ask ior the horse, and perhaps I will let you have it.' Gen. Tuttle thinks it very impolite of the President to issue an ouler for the return of the flags, but it would be perfectly proper if Congress should grant it on the plaintive reepuests of the various Southern States. These men, like Tuttle, are not abreast of the times, anel their utterances are of no significance. The adminis tration of Cleveland has been a pronounced success. With Cleve lanel at the head of the Democratic ticket he will in all probability be put there success is assured." Ten Ilroeck's Tomb-done. Frank W. Harper, the well known turfman, has ordered at Versailles, Ky., the costliest monument prob ably ever placed over the grave ot any being below the estate of man.

' t..te I-:::ui gration Agent J. T. Patrick h s 1 ; ,u d and adopted a new plan which will prove- a uvt of the progres sive calibre of any section in which it is pre-ente 1.

We will give you low figures. They will not. however, as a rule, in manj- sections offer to invest money in order to secure them, on the ground that they have no experience in euch business and fear a total loss of the in vestment: but many profess to be will ing to give certain amounts to any com pany that will come among them and put up a factory. Mr. Patrick is in almost daily corres pondence with factory men and capital ists who desire to come to this State to make investments, but the capitalits naturally want some encourageme-nt and evidence of good will. Mr. Pat rick's plan is to determine by enquiry what kind of factory would be most profitable in a certain place, if tho citi zens want the factory, and if bo how much they want it. He is haying pre pared blank forms for this purpose which may be explained as follows: It has been determined that is a good location for a cotton factory. The citi zens of have declared thev would like a factory in their town, but they do not wish to invest lare amounts in one as they know nothing about the busi ness, but some are willing to make do nations in order that the factory may be established in the town. The form seta forth that the citizens of such town will give one-half acre of land for the site I of the factory and will also give certain i amounts in money each, ranging from s'10 00 to any amount. They eubscribo i their names and write down the amounts 1 they propose to give. This list is re turned to Mr. Patrick, who submits it to some company seeking investment 1 and points out tho inducements offered by the town of . Of course cot ton factories would not be paying in- i Hitutions in every place, but a different kind of factory might be badly needed : in some town, a canning factory in ' another, a spoke and handle factory in another, an iron foundry in another, and so on. For every industry of this and many other kinds, competent men are seeking locations. With the lists which Mr. Patrick proposes to make up. he can show anybody a desirable field for any manufacturing enterprise and show jut what kind of a reception and how much encouragement will be given to t!u- enterprise. He is in correspon dence with parties who desire such in foninti n .and who will act on obtain ing it. News and observer.

P. vania. returned to the from his visit to the President at Oak View, and was seen by a reporter of the Associated Press. When asked whether the tariff and a reduction of tho revenue had been dis cussed by the President and himself and Secretary Fairchild and Mr. Car lisle, :md whether any bill had been agreed upon, he said that this subject, i as well as oiher public matters, had been talked about, and that while there was no deference of opinion among the ; gentlemen present as to the necessity ' for an early reduction of the revenues: and taxation, no measure for that pur- i pose had been agreed upon, and none would be without consultation with the members belonging to the majority in 1 the House of Representatives. It was : th opinion of all that there ought to be ' a very considerable reduction at the earliest possible date after the meeting of .Congress, but the manner in which tho reduction should be made was con- j sidered only in a general way and no details were agreed upon. This, he said, was all that could bo said about! the so-called conference, and the state- ' ments eipon the subject going the rounds of the press were mere specula- I tion?.
