Special cable to the Chicago Daily News Prague, June 6. At the annual Bo hemian agricultural and implement fair now open in this city the methods of American exhibitors, especially those of the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company of Chicnun, angereu their German and Austrian competitors. The McCormick Company showed rearers, mowers and hinders in dera tion and monopolized the attention of the visitors. The German and A119 trian firms appealed against these "underhand methods," but the police Teiued to interfere. The Americans secured 10 per cent of the orders, and for a time it looked as though the Euro i peans would provoke a riot. Get a Peppery Cook.

The ruina tion of the ancient Italian citv. al though not attended wtu so great a mortality, has otherwise much In com mon with the modern aud more over whelming disaster of St. Tierre. Pompeii rested in a fertile spot with in the shadow of Vesuvius and over looking the Ray of Naples. Its early history Is obscured in a haze of unre liable stories and legends, but the place seems to have been at one time a flour ishing commercial town, besides being a favorite resort for many wealthy Ro mans, including Cioero. About the year (13 A. D. the city suffered severely from a series of earthquakes, and only some sixteen years later, when the people had near ly completed the restoration of their shattered buildings, the final calamity fell upon the city aud buried it fath oms deep in a chaos of volcanic mat- STKLET OF THE TOiins, POMPEII. ter. The population of Tompeli at that time is thuught to have been about lo.'.hM most of whom, iu some manner, managed to escape. It Is re markable that hut few bodies or skele tons have been exhumed during the process of excavation, and this fact lends to the opinion that the eruption did not come entirely without warn ing. For centuries the surface of the lava bed over the dead city remained un broken, the people seeming to have lost trace of the location of the burled city, and It was not until 1748 that some objects found by a peasant attracted the notice of Charles III. of Naples and led him to make experimental excava tions. After some encouraging dis coveries had jeeu made, the work was allowed to lag until, in 18U1. the gov ernment of A"ictor Emmanual appoint ed the accomplished Fiorllll to super intend the excavatious. Since thnt time the work has been conducted with system and care and the extent and importance of the discoveries have am ply repaid for the trouble and labor in volved. The Illustration, shows the Street of the Tombs, in Pompeii, as It appears to-day. Only one-third of the city has been laid bare, but findings of great interest and value to the antiquarian aud clas sical scholar have rewarded the re searchers. Among the important struc tures whose ruins have been uncover ed are the amphitheater, the temple of lsis. the Forum Clvllle,,the temples of Mercury and Jupiter, the Pantheon, the Basilica, or temple of Veuus, the Chalcldlcum. the thermae, or baths, the court of Justice, prisons and tombs. Within the walls, many Inval uable works of art, such as statues and wonderfully preserved draperies and paintings, have also been uenarth ed. The work of Investigation goes on steadily and It is believed that future developments will add greatly to the stock of information and knowledge already gleaned from the achievements of a people eighteen centuries dead. The area inundated by the flood of lava from Vesuvius, together with the number of victims, was less than that of the West Indian upheaval, but the latter will never attain the historic eminence that has been accredited to the ancient eruption. In the one In stance, the works of art of a great people were rent Into ruin, and even in this condition remained wonderful creations, while in the modern erup tion, death was dealt to a land of com paratively low Intelligence and attain ments and, beyond the appalling loss of life, the resurrecting of that which has been destroyed would mean but little. A Curious Mausoleum. A monument to a pig was erected years ago In the Hotel de Ville at Lune burg, in Hanover, Prussia, by the In habitants of that town. The atrange memorial was In the form of a mauso leum, and contained a large glass case In which was hermetically Inclosed a fine ham cut from the animal whose memory was to be handed down tq . . - 1. 1K posterity. AOOe WUS a uouunume bjuu of black marble, on which engraved In letters o-r.'.pld, was an Inscription In Latin which may be thus translated: 'Passers-by contemplate here the mor tal renu is of the pig which acquired for Itselmperisbable glory by the dis covery of the salt spring of Luneburg."

It always makes us mad to see a poor plnyer wear a baseball suit HAKES HIS OWN LUCK. The Farmer Is Not at Alt Dependent on Chance. As a general proposition we do not believe that luck has much to do with a man's success in life. Occasionally wc find one who out of some careless, indifferent investment reaps a large re ward. Even such is not always a lucky man. because not infrequently his last stage is worse than the first. Some times the personality, the tact or what not of a man brings to him success where others have failed. In business and in the professions these may be made to take the place of real ability, and we call the possessor of these qual ities a lucky fellow. It is differeut on the farm, where a man Is dependent, not upon keeping in the good graces of others, but upon himself. Nothing but cold business will pass muster there. As the seasons come and go unless a farmer Is up and doing almost to the very minute he must soon step down and out As a man sows so shall he reap Is true In more senses than one. The slightest carelessness or Indifference manifest iu preparing a seed bed or sowing any kind of crop cannot be corrected later. If n individual In a community raises bis eighty and ninety-bushel crops his success Is In no way attributed to luck, even by his bungling neighbors. Good seed sown on a well prepared seed bed is as sure to produce a profitable crop nine years out of ten In this country as winter Is to follow autumn. The same Inexorable laws are at work In the live stock end of agricul ture. Good animals are not reared by chance. Unless improved blood Is In troduced into the herds and flocks from time to time there Is sure to be reversion In the direction of the scrub form. Meat made on a scrub is not worth within 2 or 3 cents per pound of that on a well-bred animal, and yet the food to produce the pound may have cost the suuie In each case. Those who topped the market at the large centers during the past season came by their prices, not by accident, but be cause they had the goods. And so it Is true In every department of the farm. The, man who does his work thoughtfully and in season will al ways be liberally rewarded.

Most advertisers do not exper iment at nil. .They know what to ex pect as the result of an action be cause they have plauued wisely know ing as they did the natural results of their planning. Advertising World. Two hundred prominent merchants in Reading, Pa., have declared that advertising in the newspapers Is good enough for them and that henceforth they will use the newspapers only for such advertisements as they may pub lish. They will have nothing to do hereafter with schemes for ads. In "hotel registers, desks, billboards, clocks, keyboards, charts, programmes, tickets, cook-books, moving pictures, enunciators, curtain advertisements, oil paintings and pamphlets." The merchant: and business men every where are reaching this sensible con clusion. For sixteen years Tbe Budget has been advertising church fairs, suppers and like entertainments free of cost to the societies under whose auspices they were held, and during all of that time we have sent the paper to every minister In town free of charge, have published all church notices gratis and have lavished space and printers' ink on benefit entertainments of all kinds without hope of reward. We desire to give notice, however, that hereafter we will charge regular rates for all locals or other advertising In every case where an admission fee Is charged or where meals or merchandise Is sold for cash. In other, words, any enter tainment which embraces a money consideration must pay cash for adver tising, church and like notices to be published free, as heretofore. Douglas (Wyo.) Budget.

FIGURES FOR FARMERS. Some Remark on the Practical Uit of Bind ing Twine. What appeals to the farmer, in the matter of Twine, is satisfaction in use, and its economy. A poor article is dear at any price. A clean, strong twine is a pleasure to use. In economy note the following fig nteg, and see that a pure Manila, 650 feet to the pound, will tie more bun dles at a given cost than any other brand. Estimating the cost to the consumer at the following prices we have: "5 f Tout per g "S low 2 1 wo fir, ui.su 6oo l a'.oo frm la i. iu Brand lover Leaf Manila Sisal & Standard. Of course the number of bundle per acre will depend on how heavy the fr-ain is; but on the bap of 400 bun dles per acre the co.t per acre would be: Pure Manila, 650 feet ier pound, 19.7 cents per acre; Manila, 600 feet per pound, aO cents per acre, final Standard, 500 feet per pound, 21.3 cents per acre. Owing to its superior quality many consumers think the brand known an Four Ii6af Ked Clover is the product of some Eastern manufacturer, whereas it it made in Portland, Oregon, as can be seen from the tag on each ball. From Eastern farm journals it can be readily seen that the large Eastern manufac turers are responsible for the high price of fibre and maintaining the value of Sisal and Standard twine. They con trol the Bisal fibre situation in Yuca tan, where all the fibre for the world's consumption is raised, and holding the market np to a price that prevents tbe smallei mills from getting fibre at a low enough price to compete with them. If farmers will only remembei that 650 feet Manila is tbe cheapest in the end and nse this quality of twine, they will develop our trade with the Philippines, which means an increase of population on the Pacific coast and broadening the market for farm products.
