A Baltimore paper refers to " 'Ham

assuming that our contemporary has
reference to the W. Shakespeare who
formerly resided at Btratford-on-Avon,
England.
Two Chicago boys who amused them
selves by shooting at lanterns on rail

of passengers, have been sentenced not
to touch firearms for two years. This
awful punishment will no doubt cnuse
all other young owners of revolvers to
throw away their weapons and resolve
to lead blameless lives.
For some time past tradition has
been overset In the British navy by the

Why should the American citizen br

How are we ever going to have an
American aristocracy If the crowds In
the bleachers are permitted to paralyze
exalted ambitions by booting at the
patient performers in the field? If we
are not to have a "Burke's Peerage"
edited by society writers and sold on
subscription to people who want their
names mentioned, we are left with no
standards of aristocracy whatever. It
Is very evident that a permanent so
cial distinction . can never be established-
In the United States If grand
Juries are to be forever pryljig Into the
circumstances by which the title to
social stnudlng is acquired.
For a good many years It baa been

bred to tight. If necessity arrives, here
after. Besides, the rascals wear but

brilliant In external than the civilian,
and yet what are they, after all, but
Uncle Sam'a charity boys, as their
stateamaullke critics tell them to en

the academies by the democratic rout
of competitive examination, but some
thing survives of the curious old pre

Charles M. Schwab, the young mil
lionaire who was once the bead of the
steel trust and la now completing in
New York the costliest private resi
dence tu the world, has once again re
marked that education and culture unfit
young men for aucceaa In life. Per
haps this la largely true so far as
Schwab's observation extends,' Hut' It
must be understood that the brain of
Charles M. Schwab ha a very limited
borlson. Great successes are being
achieved every day for the development
and betterment of humanity, which a
Schwab can no more appreciate and
comprehend than a pig can understand
art The pig come to think of It has
a tluy little brain. But every fraction
of Its Intellectual energy Is devoted to
the welfare of Its stomach. You see
a lot of ao-callod human beings that
seem to be built on the same plan.
There is a sort of fatality leading tbem
to the accumulation of money. They
have marvelous cunning In getting rich,
but If you touch their minds on any
other question you may find them blank.
The man who thinks of nothing but
making money may not be capablo of
realizing that other people can think
of nobler purposes. . Like the pig, with
its snout so deep In the trough that
Its eyes are burled In the slop, Its hu
man prototype may also be unable to
see or think of anything In the world
but the one business of getting all that's
to be got It Is right and proper that
the pig should have no thought but for
Its stomach It Is made that way. But
with man it is different; to have a
pig's mind be must acquire It by kill
ing the best there Is In bltn. By will
he renounces manhood and debases
himself to the level of the animal. He
spills no blood, but he murder a man
to make a pig. It is the basest of
suicides, and perhaps the commonest
It Is right and proper, too, that a
man should make all the money be can
get honestly and use wisely. The man,
who makes money, as a means. to an
end, Is not to be despised. He Is doing
bis part of the world's work, and the
part Is no small or Ignominious one.
But there are other duties In the world
Desmes maxing money. There are
qualities In the human mind and soul
Infinitely more Important than those
which make large accumulations of
money possible.
Take Babies to Polls.
When the various provinces of Aus
tralia were federated Into one com
monwealth and the federal franchise
was given to women the newspapers
were greatly concerned as to what
would become of the babies while thalr
mothers were out voting, says the New
York Trtbuna
'They never thought how the babies
were getting on on the 304 other days
of the year," said Miss Alice Henry of
Australia to the New York Equal Suf
frage Association, at the Hotel Astor,
"but their possible fate on that one day
out of 305 seemed to give tuem great
concern.
"But the mntter settled Itself very
simply. We found, on the first day
when we enjoyed the federal franchise,
that there were plenty of women politi
cians ready to stay with the babies
while their mothers went out and vot
ed. They were organized and detailed
for that very purpose. But many of
the mothers did not think It, necessary
to avail themselves of such services
for there was no law against taking
the babies to the polls. I myself saw
perambulators going down the street
by the dozen on election day and some
women actually marked their ballots
with their babies crowing and gurgling
In tbelr arms."v
Jfo Use Expecting- Her to Forget.'
"I know that spring Is coming," she

either. Ob, well, come on, I may as
well know the worst right at the start.

the problem of feeding It la not the
easiest one in tlio world to solve. Any
arrangement which will do the work
readily Is warranted and on of the
beet plana we know of ran be evolved
from the following: Keep the calf In
a Hu of some kind with a solid front.
Then cut a square opening lu the front
roa munxo the calf.
Just big enough to receive the feed pall.
Hinge the piece that Is cut out to
awing. In. Then put chains, roe and
strniw to the side of the openings and
attach to the cut out ortlon by means
of staples. The chain must !e Just
long enough to allow the cut-out see

in the lower part of the cut, although
the chains do not slmw In this part or

the outer edge of the cut-out Hirtlon

edge of owning. The pall Is set In
position from the outside and the cleat
at the top of oieulng and outer edge
of cut-out iwrtlon prevents the pall
from being overturned or the contents
from spilling out This plan does away
with the annoyance of trying to set a
pall full of milk over Into the pen of a
hungry calf wlto. In his haste, usually
knocks It out of the bnnds of the
feeder.
Cold Fnua for Vegetables.
No market gardener could do with
out cold frames and conduct bis busi
ness profitably. For extra early vege
tables and extra-bite ones they are
equally necessary. Then, too, they are
such a help In the way of giving many
kinds of botbed plants a good growth.
But useful as they are, cold frames
are seldom used In private gardens, ex
cept of the rich. Yet they are not ex
lieiwlve and are very easy to make.
The best place for a cold frame Is
on the south side of a hill. There, pro
tected from the cold north winds, the
plants get the full beat of the sun nud
make great growth long before It Is at
all possible to grow them In the ojmn.
To make a cheap cold frame all that
Is needed are a few boards, and. In
the absence of sash, a' frame covered

tsi How a Ike Aereaae.
Farm labor Is growing scarcer each
year; It is almost linholhl to keep
the boy on the farm and equally Im
possible to obtain labor from the cities
that Is of any use on the farm. Some
of the poor meu In the great cities
would be Infinitely better off In the
eouutry where they and their children
might gain health nud vigor, but It 1
next to Impossible to keep them on the
farm even If one gets them there, for
they prefer the crowded tenements to
the little cottage In the country.
Every employing farmer will testify
that this Is the truth. The alternative
then seems to be a reduction of acreage
nud more rare and fertiliser given to
the portion cultivated ; In other word,
pedal crops and Intensive culture.
Poultry raising offer ono avenue of
escape from the uo-lahor question, up
to a certain limit Small fruit culture

children may be had to pick the fruit
After these oue must get dowu to the
growing of croi which he ran handle
by himself, aiming to get quality and
quantity from a small arun. In some
section farmers are combining and.
under an agreement, are turning re
tain Htrtions of their farms Into rro
beat suited to them, hay when possi
ble, and each helps the othet during
harvest the ierlod when the lark of
help Is most felt Look Into the ques
tion of reducing the area seriously:
it Is worth considering before glvlug

Prise Yearling Merlao Ham.
This ) earing Merino ram, owned by
Uriah Cook of Union County, Ohio,
won first prise at the Indiana State
Fair, and also at the llKti Illinois State
Fair. Ills dam was flint prize and
champion winner at some of the lead
ing fairs lt the country, and his sire
produced many uoied rams, a number
of which were sold lu South Africa.
At the time this picture was taken the
mm was a little over 10 months old
and bis weight was ISO pounds. He
was fed a mixed ration of corn, oats
and bran once or twice a day and run
on bluegras pasture In the summer
and plenty of good clover hay In the
winter, and was housed from storms.
Pumpkins la the Cora.
Those who have stork on the farm,
cows, sheep, swine or poultry, will find
the old-time plan of planting pumpkin
seeds among, the corn a good one to
hold on to, provided they will harvest
the pumpkins carefully, store them as
carefully and feed them to the stock
during the winter. Pumpkins are read
ily kept through the winter, and by
watching them carefully and using the
siieeked ones first they will go through
the winter and supply the sloek with a
much needed variety. They can lie fed
to advantage to all of the stock named,
only being careful In feeding to pout
try to chop the pieces finely after re
moving tho skin. The pieces seem to
lie particularly .enjoyed by the fowls
when mixed with meat scraps, nnd the
whole mixed with bran and moistened
with skimmed milk fed quite warm.
Self-Hinder Hon on Skill.
A Minnesota farmer writes: Farm
ers on the Minnesota side lu the Ited
Klver Valley tried a new scheme in
harvesting grain last season. Exces
sive rolns Just before nnd during the
harvest season so Hooded the grain
fields that it was Impossible to get
into them with tho binder on wheels.
The groin stood up all right, ns It does
In that country, but the ground was
too soft to enable the binder to do Us
work. Some genius conceived tho Idea
of putting the binder on skids, putting
on horses enough to pull It through
sled fashion, meanwhile running the
binding machinery with a small gaso
line engine. A large acreage of groin
was cut In this way and saved which
would otherwise have been a total loss.
Whenever a farmer arrives at the
place where be feels that there Is no
more for him to learn it la conclusive
evidence that he hag not begun to learn.
When I was sixteen years old I thought
I knew more than my father, and act
