"Ir- LOTUS IN AMERICA.
An Oriental riant llronght HUher In Piw
historic Time.
Seeing how forcibly this wonderful
flower of tho lotus Impressed itself upon
tho minds of the ancient Egyptians and
tho East generally, how prominently it
figures in Eastern religions "all idols
of Huddha are made to rest upon
opened lotus flowers" it is safe to con
clude that when familiar to all, even in
this utilitarian age, it will not be mere
ly ranked as ono of mnny flowering
plants; it is of too commanding an ap
pearance for this, nnd to literature will
prove a boon. Asters, golden-rods and
buttercups can havo a well-earned
rest.
Years ngo the cultivation of tho
American species proved a failure, and
those who are now best capable of
judging still record the curious fact
that tho native lotus is much more
difllcult lo establish in our waters than
the Eastern, and does not grow with
quite tho saino luxuriance. Its intro
duction by aborigines along our East
ern sea-board hsis been mentioned; per
haps it has lost vigor sinco it lost their
enre, and h:is disappeared excepting
where its environment was peculiarly
favorable. And tho question nrises,
after all, is it in tho strict senso a
native? May it not, indeed, havo been
brought hither in prehistoric times?
Tho quoslion of a superlatively ancient
communication between tho continents
is a tempting subject for study,
and how appropriate when rest
ing in the shade of tho Eastern lotus!
Such a train of thought need not
stir up any ghost of a mythical lost At
lantis. Still tho American form has
certain markod peculiarities. Tho ma
ture torus has a decided constriction
somo distance from tho insertion of tho
htem, wanting iu tho foroign species,
and the seeds of tho former are globu
lar instead of distinctly oval. Whatov
er tho history of the American form,
that of tho Eastern, or Egyptian, as it
is usually called, is too well known to
need repeating, however brielly, and
yet tho plant is still wrapt in mystery.
A word, however, concerning the term
Egyptian in connection with it. At
present it is a plant of India, of China
and (Japan, Australia, tho Malay Archi
pelago and tho Caspian sea an enor
mous range; but it is no longer found
in tho valley of tho Nile. Tho use of
tho namo rests upon tho fact that it was
there, not only a cultivated plant, but
held sacred by tho peoplo of that coun
try, as t, is by the Hindoos. Egyptolo
gists, lion vcr, are not of one mind as
to tho relation of tho lotus to tho an
tiquities of the Nile region, some ques
tioning tho matter altogether, and con
sidering tho sculpturing to represent
tho lily of tho Xile. ono of the grandest
of tho whito nymphajas. Quite recent
ly, too, it has been ably argued to bo
tho renowned rose of Sharon. "Of such
a kingly llowor Solomon might well
have said, 'I am tho rose of Sharon.' "
Dr. Charles C. Abbott, in Harper's
Magazine.
THE CROWN OF THORNS.
A Popular lror Which lists llcen Sanc
tioned liy Artists.
I know tho masters of painting from
(initio in his wonderful "Ecco Homo"
down to tho present time have depicted
tho crown that rested upon the head of
our crucified Saviour as a twisted
branch of bare thorns, and that is, so
far as I k iow, universally accepted as
the true crown.
Some years ago an incident that oc
curred in the Holy Land caused mo to
think that tills popular belief may bo a
mistake. A parly of us who weio jour
neying toward .Jerusalem at this season
of tho year, which is identical with tho
passion and death of tho master, had
stopped to rest and lunch just after en
tering the hill country, some miles be
yond Hemloh, when a lady of the party
who was gathering tho beautiful Mow
ers that covered the landscapo on all
sides wreathed an exquisite spray, and
holding it up exclaimed: "The crown
of thorns!"
Our party wore dolighted with tho
wreath and upon examining it wo found
that long sharp thorns were concealed
by the lovoly (link llnwers. Wo were
convinced that this was the truecrown,
and as we advanced toward Jerusalem
we saw that the whole country, oven to
tho walls of tho city, was covered with
this (lowering thorn.
Tho plant and llowor nro very simi
lar to what wo commonly call tho flow
ering almond, with tho addition of tho
thorn. Tho bloom is very thick, so
that by merely entwining a branch a
wreath 1 niado, whllo tho long, sharp
thorns sot out at right angles about an
inch apart mako It a very painful
crown to wear upon the human brow.
When wo romoinbor that the soldiers
who dressed our Saviour with tho pur
ple robe and crown did it as a mockery,
it is reasonable to holiovo that thoy
choso this plant, which was so accessi
ble and would mako a beautiful appear
ance, while at the same time wounding
his holy brow.
Many who havo visited Palcstlno at
this season of the year havo doubtless
had this siiggosted to thorn, yot I have
never soon comntonts upon It in any
book of travels. Letter in N. V. Her

e Farmer who s..w, cftfe tfetfc
Hardly Mako a m.
Through a larger part of thacouatt!
than tho advocates of th gnt W
will admit, tho moans of ioiproitjk
worn-out or Impoverished land ai On
most practical questions in farming.
It is almost certain that in largo por
tions of Dakota, even .before it is ad
mitted to Statehood, successive wheat
cropping has seriously diminished tins
yield. In Minnesota this failure of the
soil occurred several years ago. and so
suddenly that it is recognized as an era
by farmers and other business men.
Talking with a farmer recently from
that State, ho remarked that it was a
common thing to hear events dated
from the year of the wheat failure. It
was at the timo thought to bo a tem
porary a Hair, the result of bad season,
drought and insects, but experience ha
shown that the diminution In tho wheat
yield then experienced was duo to more
serious causes, as it has continued ever
since. This condition of affairs is not
an unmixed evil. It makes impossible
tho spendthrift extravagance of fertil
ity which has marked Western farming
and has put the Eastern farmers at so
great a disadvantage. Tho greatly
improved machinery for harvesting
grain crops has not only onnbled West
ern farmers to exhaust their farms
more rapidly, but has also obliged
farmers in the East to pursue tho same
system, lxiss stock has been kept In
localities where grain can be grown, and
tho deficiency in barnyard manure has
been made up by tho purchase of com
mercial fertilizers, good in thomsolvos,
but not furnishing a lasting manure for
tho Improvement of tho soil. Tho un
syninietrical character of much modorn
farming is shown by tho smaller pro
portion of land devoted to grass and
hay. Tlieso do not glvo the immediate
profit that grain crops do to average
farmers, but thoy are bettor for tho per
manence of tho business. If a farm is
plowed overy year, and tho product
sold at low prices, as it has been of late
years, it is scarcely possible for tho
farmer to avoid financial ruin. Tho
fertility of his land, which is his capi
tal, is boing exhausted, and when that
is gone ho has no way to easily replace
it. Tho best of all restoratives of fer
tility is clover. The farmer who sows
clover seed liberally can hardly make
a mistake. On, tho great majority of
farms the distance from market is so
groat that clover hay does not pay at
the comparatively low price it brings
to draw away, if fed on the farm it
makes a valuable manure, and at tho
sumo time tho hay crop is growing
the clover roots nro deepening tho soil
for future crops. Tho fanner who
grows clover largely can afford to try
the commercial fertilizers, for the clo
ver roots fas ton the mineral fortuity in
the soil. Instead of allowing it to bo
como inert and worthless. American

In raising poultry or stock of any

U. Provido yourself with some good,
healthy chickens, never to bo over

1. (Jivo plenty of fresh air at all
times, especially in summer.
5. Civo plenty of fresh water dally,
and never allow tho fowls to go thirsty.
li. Eeed them systematically two or
three tlmos a day; scatter tho food, so
thoy can't eat it too fast or without
proper exercise. Do not feed more
than thoy will eat up claim, or thoy will
got tired of that kind' of food.
7. (Jivo them a variety of both dry
and cooked feed; a mixture of eoolced
meat and vegetables is an excellent
thing for their morning meal.
8. (Jivo soft feed in tho morning nnd
the wholo grain at night, except a little
wheat and cracked corn placed in tho
