At a meeting of the executive board of the Negro Business and Professional Men’s Association held last week the matter of staging the races this spring was discussed and it was unani- amously decided to hold the event on the 8th of next month. For the past two years the traces have received at least onc months advertisement prior to the holding of the event, but on account of the organizing of the school boys’ baseball league this spring and not wishing to have the two affairs conflict in any respect thereby dividing the in- terests of the boys, it was deem- ed expedient not to start work on the races until the league had gotten well under way. There fore the committee in charge of the races set to work this week to get things in shape and judg- ing from the interest already evinced by the boys and_ the general public since positive knowledge to the effect that the races would be held was given out by the association last Satur- day a tremendous crowd will’be at the park on May 8th. Up to yesterday fifteen schools have signified a desire. to take part in the event, with the possi- ble addition of four more coming by Wednesday. Of the schools entered twelve have already s¢- jected their captains and with the appearance today of the program of events to be run the work of selecting the teams will begin the first thing next weck and all the ‘contestants given in the next is- sue of The Tribune. | The committee on program has lessened the number of events this year and by so doing the progfam in entirety will be easily carricd out. There are twenty events scheduled, five of which are comiques, and the pro- gram is so arranged according to age limits as to give the smaller schools an equal chance with the larger ones of winning the hon- ors of the afternoon. If it is possible to get a sufficient num- ber of open entries, several of the events now confined to schools will likely be changed. Permission to close the city schools at one o’clock the day of the races was granted by Super- intendent Ashmore last week and it is more than likely that the private schools will also be given an hour or two off. _ It is estimated by the contest committee that there will be at least three hundred boys in the races and as the boys all have,a faifly good general knowledge of what is expected of them in the events to be run a beautiful fight for the city championship is an- ticipated: As it is the desire of thé associa tion promoting the races to have the affernoon one of genuine pleasure and enjoyment a brass band has been engaged for the event and the park on that day will be one continuous bedlam of fun and music during the en- tire afternoon. The funds for defraying the expenses of the meet were re- tained by the association out of last year’s receipts of the races and the committee on prizes will award in round numbers about one hundred and fifty dollars to the succesful contestants. There will ofcourse be a ticket selling contest and it is very probable that this will be conducted among the girls. Definite infor- mation will be given out concern- ing this contest on Wednesday. An important meeting of the association will be held at the annex of the Congregational church on Tuesday night at 8 o'clock at which final arrange- ments for the races will be made. The following are some of the schools, with their captains, that will atke part in the meet: School Captain West Broad Street...Zeke Bird Beach Institute....Jerry Nesbit Cuyler Street....

During the last cefisus period our Negro population in general increased barely 10 per cent, but our Negro farm population increased more than 20 per cent. Just the re- verse tendency is true among the white of every Southern state except Kentucky. . In_ 1910 in the South the ratio of Negro farm workers-ran far ahead ‘of that of Negro popula- tion in general. For instance, in, South Carolina, the Negroes were 55 percent of the popula- tion, but 68 per cent of the farm workers. In Georgia they were 45 per cent of the population, but 53 per cent of the farm workers; in- Alabama 42 per cent of the population, but 54 per cent of tlie farm workers; in Louisiana 43 per cent of the population, but 64 \per cent of the farm workers; in Mississippi 66 per ‘cent of the opulation, but 69 per cent of the fm workers. The Negroes were 30 per cent of our Southern populatio’, but they were 4o per cent of all persons engaged in agricultural pursuits. In Mississippi during the last census perfod Negro farmers in- creased at a rate nearly two and a half times greater than the rate of increase for Negro population in general, and in Georgia at a rate nearly three and a half times greater. In every state of the South, except Arkansas and Oklahoma, the Negro is a dwindling ratio of of population in general, but he is an increasing ratio of popula- tion in the farm regions, Louis- iana alone excepted. On the other hand, the Negro is a decreasing’ ratio of popula- tion in the cities of the South. In 1900 thirty-three Southern cities, each containing 25,000 or more inhabitants, had a Negro population amounting to 10 per jcent or more. During the fol- lowing census period; in all of these cities except Fort Worth, Negro populatjon lagged behind the rates of white increased, in some of them far behind; as, for instance, in Atlanta and Macon. In others there was an actual loss of Negro population. Between °1865 and 18§0 the towns and cities of the South seemed in fair way of, being overrun and overwhelmed by the Negroes. In 1910 it be¢ame ewvi- dent that the Negro was resisting the lure of city life and sticking to the farm better than the Southern white man. Some 50,000 Negroes are en- gaged in the various professions, mainly teaching, preaching,medi- cine, and law; some 30,000 more are engaged in various business enterprises, some of them with conspicuous success and distinc- tion. But here, all told, are few- er than 100,000 upward-moving Negroes. On the other hand, 2,500,000 Negroes are engaged in agricul- tural pursuits as day laborers, tenants, and owners. With their families, they represent more than four-fifths of their race in the South, and they cultivate 100,000,000 acres of our farm land, or two-thirds of our total improved acreage. ~ The Negro, then, is widely choosing or blindly moving, to work out his own salvation as a Tace, not in city but in country civilization. $ In the farm regions he is achiev ing a new economic status. He is rapidly rising out of farm ten- ancy ‘into farm ownership. In a large way he is coming to be a, landed proprietor. During their first_ twenty years of freedom the Negroes made little headway | Sacred Concc.¢ sacred-musical will be ren- ..7.

In Florida they own nearly one- half of them, in Kentucky and Oklahoma more than one-half of them, in Maryland and Virginia more than three-fifths of them, and in West Virginia nearly four- fifths of them. In less than fifty years the Negro has acquired possession of twenty million acres of farm land. Altogether his farm properties are valued at $500,000,000. Negro landhold- ings in the aggregate make an area a little Jarger than the State of South Carolina. The Russian serfs, after fifty years of free- dom, have_ndt made greater headway. They have not done so well, indeed, in their conquest of illiteracy. True, cropping and share _ten- ancy are increasing in the South faster than cash or standing-rent tenancy with its larger measure of independent self-direction— nearly seven times as fast during the ‘last census period. But wherever land is abundant or la- bor scarce, or white farmers-are moving out, the Negro rises out of share tenancy into cash ten- ancy and out of cash tenancy into ownership. During the last census period the Negroes of the South increas- ed less thati1o per cent in popu- lation, but fhey increased 17 per cent in the ownership of farms: against a 12 per cent increase of white farm owners. In Mississ- ippi, Alabama, and North Caro- lina the farms cultivated by white owners increased. only 9 per cent, but the farms cultivated by Negro owners increased 19, 21, and 22 per cent in the order named. In Arkangas, while white farm owners increased 8 per cent, Negro farm owners in- ¢reased nearly 23 per cent. In Georgia the white farm owners increased only 7 per cent, but Negfo farm owners increased 38 per cent. Even in Louisiana, where there was an actual Iggs of Negro farm population, ‘there was an increase of 14 per cent in the number of Negro farm own- ers, . . In 283 counties, or nearly one- third of all the’ counties of ten Southern States, the Negroes are in a majority, In sixty-one of these counties Negro farm “own- ers outnumber the white farm owners. This is true of 5 cout- ties in Georgia, 6 in Oklahoma, 8 in Arkansas, 11 in Mississippi, and 17 in Virginia. The Negro farmer nuw owns, $37,000,000 worth of firm imple- ments and tools, $177,000,000 worth of farm animals, $273,000,- ooo worth of farm lands and buildings. Duting the last ten years he has néarly doubled his wealth in farm implements, more than doubled his wealth in farm animals, and nearly trébled his wealth in farm lands and build- ings. - In Georgia, in 1910, the farms cultivated by white owners num- bered 82,930, an increase of 5776, or7 percent, during the ten years. The farm§ cultivated by Negro owners numbered 15,700, an increase of 4324,,or 38 per cent during this period. The rate of Negro increase in farm owner- ship in Georgia is more than five times the rate of white in- crease during the last census pe- riod. . * In 1880 Georgia Negroes own- ed 580,664 acres of farm land, but in 1910 they gwned_ 1,697,970 increase during the thirty years Negro property upon, the, tax di- gests of Georgri.now amounts to $34,000,000.

E. church, Gwinnett and West Broad streets. The meeting promise to be very interesting and will be pre- sided over by the president. Mr. Eugene Kinckle Jones, of New York, one of the associate directors of the national body, will be present dt the meeting and will likely address the gath- ing. It will be remembered that it was subsequent to a former visit of Mr. Jones to the city, at which time he placed before a gathering of citizens at the Wage Earners bank the work of the national leabue, that the lo- cal branch got its ideas and was a short time afterward started. Mr. Jones will remain in the ci- ty for some time and direct the work here. All of the members of the Iea- gue are requested to be out and to bring their friends. The league has been doing ef- fective work in this city and the presence of Mr. Jones to direct the work will be greatly appreci- ated by -the citizens in general.

The inter-scholastic baseball season was ushered in with great enthusiasm last Saturday. Fhe East Broad Streets lowered the colors of the Independents, the team which at the last moment before the game had its name changed from Catholics because of the inability to secure suf- ficient Catholic school boys to justify the team in bearing the name, to the tune of 11 te 6, while on the west side the Beach Institute was trimming the West Broads, by the count ofi1‘te 7. The westside game was parféc- ularly enthusiastic because ef the presence of the large nimber of girs from the two eoa- testing schools while at the other game there were no girls to add to the thrills of the afternoon. At today’s games both on the east and west sides the atten- dance will be much larger than last Saturday and the girls of all the schools will be present. Coaches Tyson and Bryan had their charges whipped into excel- lent shape and some real classy playing was done. All promise even better performances today, when the East Broad and Beach clash at Bolton and Atlantic ave- nue, and the West Broad and In- dependents at 37th and Bulloch streets. . The officials in last Saturday's games were Dr. O. C. Clayborne and Mr. W. H. Logan, on the east side, and Mr. Geo. W. Jacobs and Mr. Mathew Jones, on the west side. The indicators were han- died in gre#t-style and the games were-played quickly. For the West Broad the par- ticular, stars were Captain Deas and Zeke Bird, who pitched the last four innings of the game; for the Beach the work of Jerry Nesbit and Harmon stood out conspicuously, while in the East Lroad-Independent game Fred- die Jones, Tyson, Pettie and Mordecai were most widely com- mented upon, Today the games will be West Broad against the Independents at 37th and Bulloch streets, Ja- cobs and Smith officials, East Broad against Beach at Bolton and Atlantic avenue, Maxwell and’ Clayborne officials. In‘ order that the fans might have -their thirst quenched Young Brothers, confectioners, were on harid with ices.

A community co-operative laundry is to be establisheod in Polk county, Vis. In connection with the local ¢o- operative creamery. This is the result of the offer of $300 for such an enter- prise by a local banker and a like prize by Professor Henry of the State Agri- cultural college. The laundry is to be organlzed along the same lines as the one at Chatfield, Minn., which has béen in successful operation for the past year, Celery cabWage is the name of a new horticultural product which has lately appeared in some of the larger mar- kets. It resembles large stalks of cel- ery, with the exception that the tops look like bead lettuce. The taste is chiefly that of cabbage with a slight celery flavor. The vegetable is used for slaw, salad, in soups, cooked with meat and for garnishing. It may alse be eaten raw with salt or cooked like canlifower. ‘The importation of eggs into this country from Russfa and China duty tree {s sure to decrease the price which the poultry ralsers of the country will tecelve for their eggs, but it will also put a crimp in the game which the old storage cbaps in large centers have been playing for years past of buying eggs of the country merchant at from 15 to 18 cents per dozen in the warmer months of the year and getting from 40 to GO cents per dozen for them in the winter. A satisfactory formula for making grafiing wax is as follows: Take one pound of tallow or linseed oll, two pounds of beeswax and four pounds of rosin. Melt these ingredients together slowly and pour while still hot into a tub of cold water. When the mixture 4s cool enough to handle it should be molded into balls of convenient size with the bare hands, and the balls should be wrapped in greased paper and lald away for use. If the weather during which the wax is to be used should be warm the amount of rosin should be slightly increased. For all practical purposes a cubic foot of silage in the lower half of a silo will weigh about fifty’ pounds. Hence to ascertain the weight of silage rewaining in the silo it is only neces* sary to get the number of cuble feet. This is determined by multiplying the diameter of the silo by itself and the result by .78, which will give the area ‘in square feet of the surface, and mul- tiplying this result by the depth in feet of the silage will give the: cubic contents. The total weight of silage would ‘be got by multiplying the cubic contents by the weight per foot—fifty pounds. In view of the fact that the price of horses has dropped all the way from $25 to $40 per head for different types, it 1s the opinion of those who have made a close study of the horse mar- kets that, with prices as they are now, there fs little money in raising the Ughtweight. general purpose horse, with the possible exception of the bigh class saddle horse. Tlowever, there is reason to believe that the demand for the heavy draft animal will continue with prices such that the grower will realize a good margin of profit. The situation above referred to should have a suggestion for the breeders of horses the country over. @ When a fellow (man or woman) has been through the ordeal of having all the remaining molars in his head yank- ed out to make room for a mouthful of porcelain grinders It is too late in the game to discourse for, the, benefit of Such unfortunates on the wisdom of having thé teeth looked after at least ‘once a year from childhood up. How- ever, folks who have been through the trial referred to, as well as those who have direct: knowledge of such trials, should,use their best efforts to see that the teeth of their children and others that they may be interested in are giv- en seasonable attention. It is a good deal cheaper in the long run and would save a heap of irritation and indiges- tion. A good many farmers are going from the “rain belt,” where the.annual.pre- cipitation is thirty inches or more an- nually, to sections beyond the one hundredth meridian, fittingly called the “agricultural dead line,” where the rainfall 's but from ten to twenty inches a year. For suck homeseekers it is of the utmost importance to have an open mind and to not cling too tenaciously to methods of handling the soll which have given good results in the sections from which they have come. It would be well to write to the department of agriculture, Wasb- ington, for a few of the bulletins on dry farming adapted ‘to the section fn which one has settled or plans to set- tle. More than this, it would be wise to subscribe for a farm journal which takes up the farming methods” best adapted to such dry sections. Lastly. it would be well to get into communt- cation with the agricultural college of the state and secure such bulletins as may be available. Having the liters- ture referred to will not bring suecese to those who are shiftless, stupid or lazy, but they~w}ll be of immense help to, those who aré wideawake ‘and-ener- getic and who ‘are interested in ‘doing things ‘in the best yey and getting oe gest returns for the least expenditure of edort. Most any day when the sun shines warm in the south windows of shtp and office a stray box elder bug will limber up enough to crawl around in a sluggish, lifeless manner. Just how the bug has survived to the present time with nothing to eat is a bit mys- terfous. Potato growers the country over will be interested in a recent bulletin pat out by the department of agricul- ture under the caption, “Potato Wilt, Leaf Roll and Related Diseases.” It can be had free on application to the United States department of agricul- tare at’ Washington. Caked udder in mili cows is not al- ways, but is nevertheless usually, brought on by catching cold. This follows lying down on a damp stable floor or on the cold ground outside. With good cows as high priced as they are, it is shortsighted in the extreme to allow such preventable cases of eoked udder. ‘The consensus of opinion seems to be that it is a risky proposition using coal tar as a material for painting the wounds of young frult trees.

Apple sauce cake is much enjoyed by those who have eaten it. The follow- ing recipe is one that is published by a lady at Black River Falls, Wis.: One egg, Well beaten; one cupful of granu- lated sugar, one and one-half cupfuls of sweetened apple sauce, one scant half cupful of lard, one teaspoonful each of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg ahd one «nd one-quarter teaspoonfuls of sata, dissolved in apple sauce; one cupful of seedless raisins and two cup- fuls at flour. Beat well and bake in moderate oven. Poor condition In aged Morses asa result of a bad coniltion of the teeth is a common thing. Occasionally the same thing 1s responsible for unthrifty condition in a growing hog. The writ- er remembers the case of two hogs that were of the same age and ate out of the some trough, yet one flourished and the other was thin. and poor. When cornmeal was substituted for shelled corn the runt began to pick up. immediately. The natural inference from this was that its tecth were out of whack, Scores of young orchards are going to pot every year because the owners think they can work the tracts as a calf pasture proposition before the trees get toa bearing age. The two things don’t go together, and if the calves ara to have the right of, way it would be better to quit monkeying with- the trees and take a grub hoe and dig them out, If, on the other hand, they are counted on to become something be- yond sticks for the calves to scratch thelr backs on the bovines would bet- ter be pastured elsewhere. _The 01d, old law of growth, “To them that hath shall be given,” holds just as truly in the feed lot and hog pen as it does among trees in the forest, among men in business or in tle case of the individual in the building up of physical, mental and moral forces. Because of this fact precautions should be taken to see that the weaklings have a place where they can get the fed they need unmolested by older and etronger animals. Unless such ald is given one might just about as well knock such runts on the head. ‘The first step that should be follow- ed in restoring the fertility of a run- down farm should be to increase the number of animals kept oa the place. Cattle, sheep and hogs are better than none, but the dairy cow Is the best fertility restorer of the lot: Every ef- fort should be made to increase the manurtal product of the thrm. Anoth- éf ff is to grow the clovers as green manures, vfter this a crop should be raised which will require clean cultt- vation and dispose of the weeds. Clo- ver should be sowed again and plowed under or may be used as p meadow for one season and then plowed under with a cultivated crop following. As tho soll becomes richer the clover crop will not have to be produced so often.

Self Disgraced, In Boston, as every one knows, the symphony concerts are viewed in the light of sacred ceremonials. In this connection the story is told of two Uttle girls of a certain family who re- turned from the music hall “In a state of mind.” One of them carried an ex- pression of deep scorn, the other az air of great dejection. “What 1s the matter, girls?” asked some member of the household. “Was the concert fine?” “The concert was all right” re sponded Eleanor. “The trouble was with Mary.

I Gnd By greatest enjoyment in giving them pleasure.” “Then why did you kick so strenu- ously when your boy asked you for a dime to pay bis way Into the picture show?” “Sh-sh! i don't want bim to over- hear.

Canadian “Alligaters.” The unsophisticated visitor to the lumber districts pf Canada may occa- slonally see what is to him a very re- markable sight, a primitive looking steamboat high and dry on a road, crawling along quite comfortably, ap- parently Just as much at home as in its nutural element. ‘These boats are known as “alligaters,” and are used for towing the rafts of logs down the rivers and lakes to the mills, says the Wide World Magazine. Sometimes it 4s desired to transfer one of these craft to a new sphere of operations which can only be reached overland, and the boat is then hauled out of the ‘water, Placed upon rollers and travels to its destination by méans of its own power. ‘ Musical. “I Just adore caviar,” sald Mrs. Got- tit. “Isn't heaswell singer?” answer- ed Mrs. Newrich.—Colmbia Jester.

Making It Laat. A young man was lately leaving his aunt’s house ‘after a visit when, find- ing it was beginning to rain, he caught up an umbrella that was snugly placed in a corner and was proceeding to open it when the’old lady, who for the first time ebserved his movements, sprang toward him, exclaiming: “No, no; that you never shall!

When the voyage of life is done he has reached no port, he has accomplished nothing—Henry van Dyke. Vicious Snipe. A Dublin gentleman was spending Bis vacation with some friends in the west of Ireland. As he was being driv- en to his destination he noticed a bog that promised good shooting and asked As jarvey if there were any snipe in tt “Snipe, ight, sor? Did ye say shnipe?

Pavorites af the Goda. Abyssinia is one of the countries to which foreigners and thelr own people have given different names. “Abys- sinfa”’ is derived from an Arabic word meaning mixture or confusion, in allu- sion to the mixed character of the in- habitants, They prefer to call them- selves Ethfoplans, and it certainly fs 2 fine old name, which makes even Mene- Uk's alleged-descent from Solomon and the Queen of Sheba seem a modern detail, for the Ethioptans, -atcording to the Greeks, were the first inhabit- ants of the earth, or, at any rate, the Srst who worshiped the gods. Accord- ing to Homer, they were the favorites of the gods and the justest of all men. —London Chronicle. Py ee eae ‘A New York physician who has re- cently transferred bis activities to the Hob tells of a Bostonian who, like most of his townsmen, fs a precislan in the matter of English and who had occasion not long ago to consult the aforesaid doctor. After ascertainment of symptoms the physician said: “What you need inore than anything else is a tonle in the shape of fresh air,” Whereupon the Hubbite waxed sar- castle and inquired: “Refore ive proceed further would you mind telling me what is the shape of fresh air?"—Lippincott’s. 7 ‘The Crab tn the Oyster. “The little crab found in the oyster,” sald a dealer, “is not, as supposed by two-thirds of the oyster eaters, the young of the blue crab, but ts a dis- tinct species.” It 1s a messmate of and caterer to the wants of the oys- ter, being, therefore, a benefit instead of a detriment to the latter. In re- turn for the oyster’s kindness in pro- tecting it against its enemies the lit- tle crab catches and crushes food which in its entiro state could not be taken by the oyster, A singular thing in connection with them is that all found inside of the oyster aro fe males. ‘The male of the same variety has a bard shell.”"—Exchange. The Oldest Treaty. ‘The oldest text of a real treaty now in existence Is that of the convention between Rameses Il, king of Egypt, and the prince of Kheta, which em- braces the articles of a permanent of- fensive and defensive alliance, with clauses providing for the extradition of emigrants, deserters, criminals and skilled workmen. ‘This treaty was @rawn up In the fourteenth century, B. C., and is the earliest record that wwe have of any international transac- Mon. Brilliant Future. “How long bave you been dieting now, Mr. Stout?” “A Uttle more than six months.” “Do you notice any beneficial re sults?’ “[ should say I did. They are won- derful. I have lost fully two pounds. ‘Think of ft! I'l only have to keep at it for about elghteen years to get down to 200.”—Chicago Record-Herald. The Easiest Way. Mrs. Newlywed—That table seems awfolly rickety. Why, it creaks if you put your hand to it. Shopkeeper—Well. that’s all the stwle, ma‘am. It’s built that way oo purpose. You can't read an account of fasblonable dinner par- tes without noticing how the tables groaned under the welght of the dell cacies. Better take this one, ma’am— New York Post. Godd form Unneighborly Noises. wack of neighborly responsibility seems to be conspicuous through all ranks of society. You can understand the conduct of the knife grinder who blows his horn or rings his“bell under your window, regardless of the rest or work he may be interrupting, just as you can excuse the yells of the ‘itinerant vegetable or, fruit vender who erles his wares raucously along the street. : ‘These nolse producers are working for thelr living, and their calls and clangings are part of their stock in trade. Without them you would not know thelr goods were offered for sale. You can even tolerate the banging of the beaters on rugs on the roof or in the back yard, because you know the cleaning must be done, and it is being performed in the only locality that pre- sents itself. But what good is gained by the un- necessary honkings of an automobile which wake the echoes of your street at midnight? Why should the collec- tors of ashes and garbage make un- necessary noise in the discharge of thelr duties? And to come within the house and in touch with those who are supposed to have gentler tendencies, ‘why should persons of }ike nature with ourselves keep so called music—elther vocal or instrumental—going at an hour when ordinary, every day folk are supposed to be asleep? Rings For Bridegrooms. A custom rather strictly observed in Germany 4s the exchange of rings by bride and bridegroom on the wedding day, and it is a-very pretty idea, “Why shouldn't the,man have somo outward symbol to show that he 1s married as well as a woman?" asked ‘a lttle dark eyed bride who had used this double ring ceremony. And why not? Very few brides now select 2 plain diamond solitaire that was for 80 long considered the-only proper en- gagement token; the larger the stone the moro the girl loved to flash it Now a diamond fs used if the girl wishes it, but it fs ut and set in some individual manner and 1s made with the promise that no duplicates will be sold. Some new rings are being shown which on first appearance seem to be very handsome seals, but on closer ex- amination show that they are to be di- vided when the “time” comes into two separate rings. They are made to or- der, as 1s mach of the jewelry worn nowadays by those who wish to have exclusive styles fn their articles of adornment. . ‘Table Manners. ‘When we consider good table man- ners in a general way there is one point that is emphasized. Quietness without baste fs the thing that will do more than anything to give attractive table manners, Any one can be quiet and diguifed. It may be a difficult thing to master the uses of the di(fer- ent utensils and to keep in mind the order of courses; ft may seem a stu- pendous task to review the different Positions and ways of eating different foods, but it is the easiest thing in the world to do things in a quiet man- ner. They are the essence of good table manners, and on this foundation it 4s possible to build an intricate structure that wih take you through any formal dinner in satisfaction. Bisaaatne Eilnuattia. “When dancing with a young girl,” asks a perplexed masculine reader, “is it necessary to continue dancing with her—perbaps three or four dances— until some other man relleves you by asking the girl for a dance? Is there no way in which a man can gracefully get away?” ‘The nice thing to do {s to dance with the girl until another partner comes to claim her, but In case you have the, next dance with another girl you must make your excuses gracefully, explain- ing the situation, and then go to claim the other girl. If you are free for the Succeeding dances you should remain with your first partner until some one else relleves you of this duty. Street Introductions. An introduction Is not always neces- sary when people meet on @ public street, but it prevents a momentary embarrassment to say, “Miss ., Mr. 3L” Such an introduction need not be considered a basis for a future ac quaintance. Merely to bow aud smite im acknowledgment, with a pleasant word, {s all that 1s necessary, and if the lady, does not choose to recognize the man in meeting him afterward that is her privilege. Consideration For Servants. Respect yonr maid's privacy. Make it a point always to knock on her door before enrering. and if you have orca sion to go to the kitchen tm the even ing always knock there too.

The newest French inade blouses are nearly all unlined, being 2s loosely tit ted as possible, with ample fullness under the arms that quite does away with that tendency to wear budly or split that was the great drawback with the Magyar style when it frst came In- to fashion. ‘The colors used are many of them lurid in the extreme, royal purple, ge ranium and tangerine being the favor- ites, the blouses being carried out in charmeuse or a thick quality crepe de chine, trimmed very simply at neck and wrist with narrow bands of vel- vet.

LAUNDRY BOX. A Pedestal Shaped Affair That Will Fit Conveniently Into Corners. Better fur, than the laundry bag is the Pedestal shaped box. It may be as elegact looking us itls owner elects to have it and stand xbout the dressing room un ap equality with the other necessary pleces of furniture. The pedestal may be made of the most ordinary wood, since invariably St is covered with cretonne, worsted brocade or any thick, closely woven window draping material. It should be neatly Gnished at the edges with a gimp or a fancy braid. Inside it may be lined with white olicloth, although that ss not necessary, and it has a flat lid whfch, when closed, zaakes a convenlent table top. This laundry box fits into a corner, out of the way. It may stand beside the bed, as it is precisely the right size to hold a night light, a book and a carafe. Care af tha Eves.

AMONG THE MASONS APATHETIC, INDEED One of the great problems which confront the craft at the present time is how to interest the large number of dues paying and non-attending Masons, says The Illinois Freemason. It is a matter of figures that the whole burden of the fraternity at the present time is being carried forward by less than ten per cent of the total membership. It has been pointed out that much of this apathy is due to the hasty and loose manner in which lodges admit members. The fact that the fraternity has become so large and so universally recognized, as one of great influence, attracts a large number who seek admittance not to be guided by its teachings, but rather to use its supposed influence to further their own personal motives. If investigating committees would satisfy themselves in advance, that an applicant desired to be a better man, and to be of service to his fellow creatures, before recommending him, we would have better Masons and less apathy in our lodges. ATLANTA TO BUILD A HALL The Masonic lodges of Atlanta will hold a great meeting of the craft Thursday night April 30th to complete their arrangements for the final payment of $1,000 due on their beautiful lot on Auburn avenue which is two hundred and fifty feet nearer the heart of the city than the magnificent building of the Odd Fellows.

To Masons, it means a great deal. Within the lodge room all distinctions are done away. The prince and the peasant meet on common ground, and are equals in all that pertains to Masonry and to manhood. The adherent of one creed has no advantage over the follower of another. Political opinions count for naught. It is the man, and the man alone, that Masonry regards. Would that men might also meet on the level in the every day walks of life. How beautiful this world would be if all men would regard their fellows as brothers and treat them as such. Wealth would not then be a menace, and high station would but be the means of elevating mankind. The widow and orphan would everywhere find friends true as steel in time of trouble. Distress would be relieved, and peace would reign among nations as well as among individuals. A beautiful dream, you say. Yes, but we as Masons can hasten its realization if we "meet upon the level" outside the lodge room as well as in it.—Herald. Married Miss Eva Elizabeth Hart and Mr. Dewitt C.

Farm and Garden WINTER SPRAYING FOR TREES Dormant Spraying Is the Only Method For Restoring Cairn Banks For Destroying Certain Pests. There is long list of tree pests, enemies of fruit yields and actual destroyers of the trees; that should be vigorously fought in winter, says a writer in Farm progress. So far the only method discovered for combating them is by winter spraying. Late winter is the time for "annual housecleaning" in the orchards. The list of enemies that can be checked or entirely wiped out by winter or dormant spraying is rather long and includes the San Jose scale, anthracnose, aphis, woolly aphis, codling moth, brown mite, red spider and powdery mildew. When you spray, spray thoroughly. Winter spraying is no exception to the rule, and the spray material should be put on with force enough to reach all the lurking enemies. Thorough spraying brings up the question of proper equipment. All the bark must be wetted. At least 100 pounds of pressure is necessary, and in some cases I have found 150 to 200 pounds of pressure giving the best results. It must be driven into the bark cracks and crevices. The man who is just beginning to take up the question of winter spray. THE STATE OF NEW YORK ing ought to be able to dis- pish the different kinds of enemies found on the trees in winter. He ought to buy a good pocket lens, costh about 70 cents, and carefully study all the parasites, scabs and fungi he can find. In battling with mitev, mites, spiders and moths all infested trees should be pruned and it dead and decaying parts removed. All wounds should be cleaned out and the flaking, scalling bark ought to be raped away from the trunks. Let this work precede the spraying with lime-sulphur. All rubbish should be burned at once. This will expose all the hibernating pests so the spray will reach them easily. Every part of the tree ought to be bathed in the film of spray even to the tiniest twig. The best time for applying sprays to the pests mentioned is a short time before the buds show signs of swelling. Bordaux 64-50 is the spray used most in late winter spraying, when the lime-sulphur is deemed inadequate. It is very effective in dealing with anthracose and incipient cases of peach leaf curl. To be really effective the spray should be put on at a dry time as a fall of rain will wash off much of the spraying material and lessen its effectiveness. The one pest that ought to be toughest by the winter sprayer is the San Jose scale. Look for the round grayish and black, button shape bodies with a pimple-like elevation in the center. This elevation is about the size of a pin head and is often surrounded by a red ring. Lime-sulphur solution properly applied will kill it San Jose scale at any date between falling of the leaves and the leafout in spring. There are three rules that I thievery man should apply in going abspraying, whether he is doing the win in winter or in summer. They are: When you spray, be sure you are cing it at the right time. If you don't know the reason you are spraying, don't spray at all. The only way to know the reason for spraying is to study up on ev insect or fungus that is causing trouble now or may trouble you the near future. Men no longer argue about the reason of spraying. That has been settled all time. The scabless, sound smooth skinned fruit of the spirt orchard has settled that question. that remains for us to know is when and the how. Barnyard Manure. Barnyard manure is indispensable a fertilizer on thin and sandy that is to be farmed. It supplies mus as well as nitrogen, and the of the humus is often more dest than the increase of plant food, the both are surely needed if the land CHECKED FABRICS. They Are to Be Very Pop- ular For Spring Wear. NEW BLACK AND WHITE GOWN. The common sense costume shown here is a Poiret creation. It is intended to be worn under a spring coat, and its lines particularly adapt it for youthful figures. Black and white checked serge is combined with plain black cloth. It is ornamented with ball buttons in black and white. The vogue of checks is foreshadowed in this as in many other spring models. Much attention may be given to buttons, as on all the well made tallor mades the buttons are a striking note. The lesser precious stones are being used for these trimmings, so we see buttons in jade, amber, lapus lazull, cornelline, agate, etc. Moreover, it is not an extravagance to pay a good price for a set of buttons, as they can always be used on something if they have intrinsic value, no matter what the fashions. And just now they have a very obvious value, for it is in details chiefly that the marks of good dressing are to be found. NECKWEAR A LA MODE. High Collars Are Favored For the Coming Season. The neckwear fashions of the present season are designed to please women who have thin necks. The high medici and the Mary Stuart collars are favorable to the concealment of gaunt neck lines. Illustrated here is one of the new plaited neck frills with satin tie to be worn with a simple morning blouse. The butterfly bow is used in every conceivable way by spring fashion designers. A bow in wired black tulle is also illustrated here. At present the lavish display of beautiful neckwear in the shops indicates a continuance of the styles of T SPRING NECKWEAR. the midwinter season and the introduction of many new novelties. Designs vary from the small, trim roll back collars to the full, lace edged, quantify fashioned berthas. The distinguishing feature about these new collars is their extreme sheerness. Even the Plauen collars are lacier than ever and some very pretty designed. These show up particularly well on a dress of dark surge. Collar and cuff sets of dainty embroidered batiste are so sheer that they have the appearance of gauze. Making the Little Farm Pay By C. C. BOWSFIELD No reader of this department need fear that purely theoretical farming is urged at the expense of practical methods. These articles are written for the benefit of established landowners as well as amateurs, and much commendation has come from experienced men who No reader of this department need fear that purely theoretical farming is urged at the expense of practical methods. These articles are written for the benefit of established landowners as well as amateurs, and much commendation has come from experienced men who realize the shortcomings of ordinary farming. For instance, while I urge the advisability of growing fruit in localities which have the advantage of good markets, I should dislike to see farmers in the central states or anywhere else devote themselves to this single industry. That would be about as foolish as exclusive grain raising or dairying. The orchard beloings in a scheme of mixed farming, together with poultry and hogs. Important facts for fruit growers are that orchard land may be made to pay double and the fertility of the soil maintained without extraordinary effort. While the trees are coming to maturity land earns nothing for five or six years unless there is a plan of vegetable raising, when a return of $100 an acre is easily secured and the soil is benefited by the necessary cultivation. Unless such a system of cropping is established a nonbearing orchard is apt to be neglected, and this results in waste of time, investment and land. The cultivation of vegetables or small fruit in an orchard is therefore for the purpose of securing immediate profits and keeping up the quality of the soil. It goes further than this, however, for it makes the land return a living income even in unattainable fruit seasons, when late frosts, insect pests or other destructive agencies have spoiled the apples, pears, plums and cherries. Apple and cherry trees should be planted thirty feet apart; plum, pear and peach trees twenty to twenty-five feet apart. The trees need to stand in straight rows to permit the free use of a horse cultivator in the vegetable and berry patches. One of the most common mistakes in farming is to plant trees too near together. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are necessary for the fertilization of fruit trees and plants in general. Nitrogen can be obtained in stable manure, but the principal source is air, and we may obtain it by growing legumes. Vegetable gardening carried on with the aid of barnyard manure is an excellent treatment for orchard land. Phosphorus may be obtained by the use of raw rock phosphate or bonemeal. Potassium is contained in large amounts in our ordinary soils in a more or less unavailable state. To get more potassium in such a shape that the plants can use it we can either apply soluble potassium salts or unlock that which is already present in abundance. Experiments have shown that it does not pay to apply potassium to ordinary soils, provided decaying organic matter in the form of manure or cover crops is worked into the soil. The decaying organic matter will liberate the potassium. It may not be generally known that apples are about as hard on land as wheat or corn, except they do not take from it as much phosphorus. A 425 bushel apple crop will remove from the soil about the same amount of nitrogen and potassium and half as much phosphorus as fifty bushels of corn or twenty-five bushels of wheat. Therefore a thorough system of gardening not only makes the orchard-land do double duty, but restores the soil fertility. If for any reason gardening cannot be carried on in a thorough way in an orchard I should recommend legumes in place of manure as the source of nitrogenous organic matter. It is shown that a cheap way to grow legumes is to apply ground limestone and rock phosphate. The cost of this treatment would not exceed $2 per acre per year, which should not seriously interfere with this system of fertilization. POTATO NOTES. To secure an early supply of new potatoes next season plant the tubers of any good early variety in pots and start them in the house. Four or five inch pots can be used, filled only about two-thirds full of soil, leaving room for a top dressing of soil to be supplied as the plants grow, after the manner of hilling up potatoes when grown in the garden. One potato is sufficient for each pot. Time the planting so the plants will be well started in the pots when they are to be transplanted in the garden at the time the tubers are usually planted outdoors. If there is a well ventilated, cool, light place, such as a cold frame or cool greenhouse, in which to grow them potatoes can be raised in pots and full sized tubers developed very much earlier than the first crop from the garden. Ten inch pots will be sufficiently large. Rub off all the eyes except the strongest for pot culture. The one thing that came home to me, with great force was that Germany is in no way loose jointed or idle, but, on the contrary, strong, red blooded, avid, imaginative. Germany is a terrific nation; hopeful, courageous, enthusiastic, orderly, self disciplining, at present anyhow, and if it can keep its place without engaging in some vast, self destroying conflict, it can become internally so powerful that it will almost stand irresistible.—From Theodore Dreiser's "A Traveler at Forty." A Famous Old English Church. The Church of St. Botolph in Boston, England, is a long, low, decorated building, with a high perpendicular tower surmounted by an octagonal lantern, locally known as Boston Stump. The tower is 300 feet high. The light and spacious interior has very lofty arches resting on slender pillars.

A correspondent sends to the British Weekly a rare bit of English.

The man that owns the sawmills' dog bit me in the road." The excuse was accepted as sufficient. The boom which followed the discovery of the extensive deposits of iron ore in the vicinity of Birmingham, Aln., in 1882, was without precedent in the industrial history of the United States, and the rush to Birmingham was paralleled only by the stampedes which followed such discoveries as the Comstock lode in Nevada and the Alaska gold fields. The iron ores of Alabama, while inferior in quality to those of Lake Superior, have the advantage of being near deposits of good coking coal and of the limestone requisite for fixing, so that Birmingham, the Pittsburgh of the south, can manufacture pig iron cheaper than any other district of the world.—Argonaut.

A NEAT AFTERNOON GOWN. Pannler effects grow rapidly in favor. Already they have passed the fad stage and are no longer eccentric, but pretty and graceful. The long clinging ones are rather ignored. They have given place to the extremely puffy and more bunched ones. The pannler tunic is gracefully carried out on the afternoon gown of white net and plaited silk which is pictured here. Pearl beads were used in its decoration. The wide satin girdle was crossed by strands of the beads and finished in front with an ornament and tassel. Loops of the pearls also adorned the skirt. SPARKLING ORNAMENTS Rhinestones Glitter on the Hands and In the Hair. Brillants, usually in the form of rhinestones, are the chief decorations on all the newest hair ornaments. But the bandeaux having them are not the mode, and yet it was in this form that they were first used to give a finishing touch to the coiffure. Now one sees rhinestones ornamenting the hinge top hairpins, the small barrettes, the base of the crowning headpiece (which is but a couple of M THE WATCH LORGNETTE. inches wide instead of bandeau size) and the decorations that hold guara feathers. One of the most striking features of the newest hair ornaments that rise upright, fountain-like, from the coif- fure is that they have an imitation of a precious or semiprecious gem, large as the oval of a pigeon's egg, near their base in the center. These are most effective, for they catch and reflect in a most delightful way the brilliance from the fashing facets of the rhinestones. Some of these have sprays of uncurled ostrich feathers rising from them, but the majority have tendrils of aluminium with small rhinestones sparkling on them. Rhinestones are not confined to hair ornaments alone. There are rhinestone bracelets, dinner rings and lace pins. Pearl necklaces should now be in three strands, graduated in size. Illustrated here is a lorgnette with a watch attachment which makes a modish and striking accessory to milady's toilet. The lorgnette is mounted in gold to match the tiny timepiece in the handle. ALFALFA A MONEY MAKERS Success In Assured if Proper Directions Are Followed. By H. D. HUGHES, Chief of bureau of farm crops, Iowa, agricultural experiment station. Success does not always come with first attempts with alfalfa, that should not be discouraging. The per cent of failures in securing a stand of alfalfa is not so great as with many other crops commonly grown. Very simple measures turn failure to success. For instance, in a number of cases where the seeding of alfalfa failed without inoculation, the next addition of 200 pounds per acre of soil from an alfalfa field or from a sweet clover path brought success. After inoculation the soil produced a fine growth of alfalfa. In other sections of the state, particularly in the south-central, the application of from 1,500 pounds to 3,000 pounds of lime per acre brought success when various other trials without lime failed. Perhaps the most important thing in securing a stand of alfaite is the liberal use of manure even on soils above the average in fertility. Its application before plowing has increased AN IOWA ALFALFA FILLI. the yield of alfalfa notably On all soils below the average the use of manure has been absolutely essential to securing a satisfactory stand and yield. In buying alfalfa seed, as in buying seed for other crops, the highest priced seed is usually the cheapest in order that the seed may all be sowed under proper conditions for germination, it should preferably be put in with an ordinary grain drill, and in average soil covered to a depth of about one inch. To distribute the seed uniformly it is a good plan to set the drill so as to sow only about ten pounds in acre and then to go over the land to lie-for example, crossing the field north and south first and then east and west. There has been much discussion regarding the variety of alfalfa best suited to Iowa conditions. Since the per cent of winter killing has been comparatively low and so of the hardier varieties is very high priced and also uncertain as to quality the only variety which can well be recommended for general use is that known as the common American. This is grown almost altogether in such states as Kansas and Nebraska. Seed grown on nonirrigated land, under conditions so nearly as possible the same as are found in Iowa, is usually preferable. No hay should be removed the year that the alfalfa is seeded. Spring seeding may be clipped once or twice when necessary to keep down the weeds, but a good growth should cover the ground when freezing weather comes on in the fall. Usually the alfalfa should be cut when about one-tenth of the heads are in bloom, which generally is early in June, as this is about the time that the new shoots begin to appear at the bottom of the stalks. Much has been said regarding the difficulty of handling and curing the first cutting, but reports from those men in Iowa who have the largest acreages state that alfalfa is not more difficult to cure than red clover. A number have said that it is easier to cure. Various methods of curing have been used successfully. In dry, sunny weather alfalfa can one afternoon may be raked the following day, put in bunches and mul of it stacked the same day. It is important that as few of the leaves as possible be lost. In order to save the leaves many growers rake the alfalfa into windrows as soon it has wilted and before the leaves are dry, bunch the hay with a rake soon as dry enough to stack and hit it at once. This method also eliminates the labor of cocking the hay, a feature which has been found desirable by number of men who handle large ages. Where one has much alfalfa hay cure a side delivery rake will be four to be of the greatest value. Where the hay is to be cocked cut late in the afternoon or the ming, raked before dinner and put cocks in the afternoon. Here it sh be left for two or three days. The of hay covers assures one of difficulty in curing even the cutting and produces a hay of excellent quality. The Care of Eggs. The perishable nature of an egg too little understood. Dampness, above 60 degrees, strong odors, delay in marketing, are factors very quickly destroy freshness. good quality of eggs. Protect Small Trees. See that the grass is pulled from the base of small trees. Put put wire protectors about them mice or rabbits cannot injure them during the winter.
