Tlio circular further contains tho In formation Hint thuro will also bo held nt tlio satno tlmo nnd placo nn Interna tlounl prlr.o exhibition for barley and hops. Tho secretary of ngrlculturo In tho "United States, tho Hon. James Wilson, Is tho honorary president of tho Inter national brewers' congress. Tho United States department of ng rlculturo Is prepnritig an exhibit by which "tho United States government will bo represented nt tho International prlzo exhibition for barley nnd hops. Tho department will show whnt linn been done by several of Its experts who linvo been for hoiiio years devot ing their tlmo to tho Improvement of theso crops. Tlio Importnnco of this exhibition for tho farmers who ratso barley and hops cannot bo overrated. It Is bcllovcd that tho first step Is'lierowltli taken to bring about a system of valuing theso Important crops upon n basis of fact rather than upon mere Individual prof crenco and perhaps prejudice. CLASSIFICATION OF AMERICAN BARLEYS. Commonly Known as Two Rowed, Four Rowed and Six Rowed. Uarleys nro commonly clnssllled as two rowed, four row.M and six rowed Tho European brewers generally pre fer tho two rowed varieties, which nro plumper and starchier, while In this country tho six rowed, of which the four rowed Is but u slightly varied rel iruAn ot hat dhkwino baulky, ntlve, is generully preferred because, while less starchy, It Is more highly albuminous and therefore possesses inoro of tho sulmtnueo which brings about the Inversion of starch Into nugar namely, dhiNiase. The common American browing bar leyH arrange themselvoa In tho follow ing system: 1. Hlx rowtnl. erect-White Club, 2. Four lonml, iIrooiiiK-Miiu'lmrlu bar toy, Oilcirbruoker. Heoti'li, Ohio Kail.

Through several years' oxporimontntlnn nt tho Wlsoon hln agricultural experiment station It lias been found that the six rowed bar ley Is preferable to other varieties and inoro profitable for the average farmer to grow. The yield far surpasses that of the other varieties, and tho market demands for tho six rowed class far Mii'imss thone of all other varieties com blued. At a conservative estimate M per cent of all the barley now grown in Wisconsin Is six rowed barley. This being the typo of barley moat com luonly'tibiHl for malting In tho United Status, It Is likely that most of tho Mtuples that will bo shown at the bar toy and hop exhibition In Chicago In October, 1011, will bo of that typo. The experiments with two rowed barley throujih eight yearn' continuous kiMHlhig work clearly prove that In moKt regtous tho farmer ennnot get tho returns from this uvp tl..t utn bo secured with tlio six rowed variety The straw seems to bo very frull and lodges easily, thereby Injuring the Jiuamy oi wo grain sud reducing tho Mfimvm ilBmmli L9u tmtm'E JC 1 1 jUBBnDI I THE 80NQ OF PERRY'8 VICTORY. YE Utr of Columbia kIvo oar to my story Who fouslit with bravo Porry when ennnons did roar. Your valor hus gained you on Im mortal Kloty. A famo that will lust until tlmo Is no more. Columbian tars oro tho truo sons of Mar. . . , . . Thoy rulto foro nnd aft when they fight on tho deep; , , On tho bed of Inko Eric, commanded by I'orry, ', . . They caused many Britons to tako tholr last sleep. Tho tenth of September let us all remem ber As long- ns tho globe on Its axis turns round. Our tars and marines on Lako Krlo were Boon To mako tho proud llaK of Grout Britain come down. Tho van of our fleet tho British did meet. Commanded by Perry, tho Lawrence bora down; Our nuns thoy did roar with such tcrrlilo power Tho buvobos trembled at tho dreadful sound. Tho Lnwrcnco sustained a most dreadful fire. Bho fought thrco full glasses, two to ono or inoro, Whllo Porry, unduunted, did firmly stand by nor. And on his proud foo fresh broadsides did pour. Our masts being shattered, our rigging nil tattered. Our yards nnd our spnrs being all shot away, And few on tho deck for to mnnngo tho wiuck. Ho our hero on board her no longer could stay. In this situation tho prldo of our nation Suro heaven had guarded unhurt nil tho while, Whllo many a hero maintaining his sta tion Fell closo by his stdo and was thrown on tho pile. Hut mark yo with wonder, Uiero olo meats thunder And death and destruction nro stalking nround, Bis flag lis did carry on board tho Ni agara; Buch valor on record has never been found. Tho famous Niagara, being proud of her Porry, Displayed nil her banners In gallant ar ray; Twcnty-llvo guns upon her deck sho did carry, Which soon put nn end to this bloody nfTruy. Tho wholo British fleet was captured complete; Not one single vmel from us got nwny, And prisoners some hundred; Columbians wondered To see thorn nit anchored and moored In one bay, ft bravo Captain Elliott now bo ra ce rded; On board tho Niagara ho well played his part.

Dalxao and Dumas Literary Foes. It Is said that Balzac detested Dumas. Onco ho brought to tbo Slcclo tho man uscript of a novel, which was to follow "Los Trols Mousquctnlros," then being published. Ho asked to bo paid 2Hi francs a line, Tho director of tho jour nal hesitated. "You see, M. Dumas Is being paid only 2 fruues n lino." "If you ure giving 2 francs to that negro, I shall get out!" Aud Ilalzac stulked off. Dumas was not Ignorant of Dnlzac'a feelings toward him and did not spare him. In tho foyer of tho Odeon theater Halznc was talking loudly In a group of literary men, "When 1 have written myself out us a novelist I shall go to playwrltlug." "You can beglu right ' away," called out Dumas. Punished For Not Voting. According to tho universal suffrage I law of Australia, nil thoso on tho reg ; Ister must record their votes, aud at j tho last general election In that couu i try 50,000 electors were lined sums , from 2 downward becauso they neg lected to go to tho poll, , Spain Is another country that looks , on voting as a national duty, at least In tho municipal election. Should a citizen omit to cast his ballot his 1 tiuiuo Is published us a defaulter, his taxes are Increased by 2 per cent. I whllo If he be in tho public service his I salary Is reduced by 1 per cent. ' Should he commit the fault a second ' time ho Is debarred forever from hold ing an elective position or uu appoint ment under government. 1 Reduolng the Coal Dill. I When adding fuel to n good bed of live coal in the furnace cover ono side only; tho uext time put coal on the other side. In this way tho heat from tho live coal tcmls to mako coko of tho frosh fuel by consuming tho gas and smoke. Less draft Is needed, too, and loss of tho fuel goes to waste in gas aud smoke, so that there Is less as and dirt In tho collar or fumaco room and In the house by way of tho registers. If large lumps of coal are used a good way Is to scatter whut Is known ns "slack" over them. Tho slack tends to hold tho flro lougor, nnd tho lump coal will tend to provont tho . slack from forming cllukera.

Tennyson's famous poem "Crossing the Bar" was written, said his son, In tho poet's eighty-first year, "on n day In October when wo cumo from Aldworth to Fnningford. Before reaching Fnrrlngfortl ho hnd had tho 'monnlug of tho bar In his mind, nud after dinner ho showed, mo tho poem written out.
