The dlfllcultr wiih i-nrlv m.iiiiL' n!n til
ing Is always hccaiiKe the soil Is too
cold. This causes the wed to germinate
too slowly. Iiut so whiii as the seed
begins to sprout warmth Is generated
by the ail. Ciirboiilc acid gas Is de-
veloiH-d, and this aids lu inn king the
soil warmer. Hence the advantage of
putting some manure under the kcc(
when It Is planted early, so as to hasten
germination. There Is the further ad
vantage of doing this early in spring
liecause the abundant rains Hint fall
then make the manure soluble, and
greatly increase Its effectiveness.

Salt iu moderate umouuts is doubt-
hs an aid to digestion. The craving
for It Is nn tu nil with all herbivorous
animals, ami Is esecially strong lu
those that chew the cud. If cow are
not suited regularly the cream from
their milk will not make butter so
quickly. This Is Hissibly because lack
of salt allows food In the stomach to
ferment before It cull he digested. This
always causes fever and Increases the
caselne In the milk. The same result Is
caused by the change lu fall from giwn
feed to dry. Cows sliolllil He salt.il nt

HOW HE TOOK A BRIBE.
Ihe Indirect Hit TiiU Man Had of
t-i-lllnu Ilia Voir.
A few years ago, when a lulled
State Senatorial election wa luijietid
lut lu Ohio, one of the kadilig candi
date nce.l.'d another vote to niiike his
el.fttoti sure and hi cumpHlgti nmiia-
ger, after . aiivassmg the sltuutmi, is
gun work iiiH.ii h bucolic r,'pr,'eiitat'.e
from one of the Western Ueaen coun

The old man grew very liullgnnnt at
the tlrst hint of money In commtlon

w..re a little ami very niolodrciiiintlcsl
ly iLsaa-rted that "Ida manlHssI wu not

fact wu tuipr,msl iiHu him that the

would hae no effect iqs.n the S.'iui

to htm as his life, and w hose cliurncler
always had Nfii iuisM.lt.sl by iMiitact
with the world.
"You will readily understand, sir," '
he udded, "thul bin lug s.. miuii at

could be mentioned. Hut here Is a
giHsl lo.wl story, which will be appre

purtles.
A genuine Britisher was lu Cleveland
some lime ago. the guest of a proud
I lieut cltlcli. The hitler wus belli on
entertaining his visitor to the Is-st Hint

of his visit gave a little banquet at the
llollendeli.
i Kverythlug was of the nicest, and
the party enjoyed Itself lnujdy. V hell
the evening's festivities were uinler ion
i headway, the honored gn.-sl liuqMi.d
' to notice the china. Il wu of I'.ngllsh ,

"Yen." s'lid one of Ihe diners with a
delicious drawl, "and you'll notice If

A smile ran round the table in which
the honored gmt did not Join. It was
lost material on him.

A woman in Stockton, who keeps a restaurant, came very
