MANURING FOR GOOD POTATOES Massachusetts Specialist Differs From Familiar Methods la Fertilizer and Preparation. Or J Fisher of Fitchburg. Mass., is very successful in growing large crops of potatoes, and he varies from our familiar methods principally in his fer tilizer formula, the preparation and planting of the seed. Following is the formula: Two hundred and twenty-five pounds of sulphate ammonia; 750 pounds ni trate o. soda: 15" pounds South Caro lina floats; 450 pounds acid phos phate; 45o pounds sulphate of potash; 15o pounds sulphate magnesia: 200 pounds air slacked lime, 2.275 pounds costing about $40. Two-thirds of this formula will be spread broadcast and will be harrowed in before planting The seed potatoes are treated with the corrosive subli mate solution to prevent scab, then spread in a greenhouse and allowed to sprout several weeks At planting time the seed is cut and only one sprout left on each piece, the surplus sprouts being purposely broken off. Dr. Fish er considers a potatoe the size of a i marble, which has been started in this way and all but the best sprout rubbed off. as very good seed. Furrowing out is done with a horse i hoe and the seed is planted under a line, giving perfectly straight rows and exact distance between plants. Kach seed piece is set upright and j ioiered with about two inches of earth: the remaining third of the fer ! tilirer Is now scattered in the drill and covered by running the herse hoe between the rows The horse weeder I and cultivator are used so frequently and thoroughly as to avoid hand hoe ing , POINTERS FOR SWINEBREEDER Good. Strong and Vigorous Ani mals May be Bred When Only Eighteen Months Old. iBy \V M KEl.LEY.) trtual experience is the best guide J for a breeder to follow as to the time that his animals will reach maturity for breeding puriioses. Some assert that breeding animals cannot be brought to maturity at eighteen months of age and have good muscle, bone and vigor; but I believe that it is possible to breed , good, strong and vigorous animals and to have them matured it that age The animal will not be soft, but will be well developed In bone and muscle if a proper system of feeding is maintained. The idea that pigs must be two or three years old to have good bone and muscle Is along the same lines as to the idea that they must be fed half rations for months in order tl.at they will have an opportunity to develop stamina and be in shape to finish on full rations.

NOTED IRISH CITY Derry Is Declared Worst of Towns in Ireland. Morality at a Low Ebb—Absence of Industries Has Fostered Pauper ism and Drunkenness—Orange men on Parade. New York.—On the afternoon of the 11th of July, after ten days’ sail ing. we came within sight of Tory i island and the wild headlands of Don I egal, a writer says. We passed Malin Head and were soon turning south ward Into Lough Foyle and were mak ing for the little white village of Mo i ville cn our right. The low white houses, set in a background of green, made a lovely picture. At the back or the hills were seme delicately tinted I white clouds that looked like peat ! smoke. “That's the smoke of Finn MacCumhaiU's pipe,” said one of our passengers facetiously. It was none too large for that, especially if the old account be true that Finn’s car cass, buried in the meadows, took up nine acres of potatoes. But here was Mo ville, and there was the tender waiting to take us to Derry, the pity of the gallant siege and of countless subsequent fights between Orange men and Catholics. We had a natural longing to see so famous a city. Be sides. the next day was Orangeman’s day, and we would be likely to see a grand procession in the streets, with possibly some Incident^ head-break ing in the good old fashion. Next morning I walked through the principal streets of the city. aDd saw the historic walls, which, mounted with cannon as of old. still stand as sullen reminders of the memorable conflicts they once witnessed. The walls originally inclosed the city, which has since extended its bounda ries beyond them. It is not a great industrial city. It has a few short factories, which employ a few thou sand women, but it has no employ ment for the men except casual dock labor; a state of things which results in many eases in the wife being the bread winner and the husband the housekeeper. There are far too many hard-faced beggars to be seen on the streets, and undoubtedly the precari ous nature of the dock work allows too many opportunities for workmen to become loafers and tapsters. Ac cording to one of the members of the Royal Irish constabulary with whom 1 talked, Derry is the worst town in Ireland in a moral aspect. The low groggeries and lodging houses in which the city abounds lend color to this accusation It turned out that the Orangemen’s meeting was not held in Derry that day. but in a place called Raphoe. about twenty miles distant, where a large party of them had gone by the morning train. In the evening I saw them returning from the station and marching in procession across the wide bridge that spans the Foyle. There must have been quite one thou sand of *hem and each one was wear ing an orange lily in his coat and a yellow sash across his shoulder. Many of them also carried yellow and red banners and there was no lack of fifers and drunWners, whose party tunes, including "The Boyne Water.” Live in Rocks for Ages Mosquitoes Incased in Prehistoric Specimens Are Hatched Out in Washington. Washington—After lying dormant in larvae for sixty million years, two mosquitoes were born in Washington. Also, it being ascertained that they were yellow fever mosquitoes, just like the qpes found In Central Ameri ca. they were immediately executed. Some time ago Secretary of State Alvah Adee received a somewhat curi ous prehistoric deposit from Brazil. Mr. Adee is a chemist, and, analyzing the rock, found two minnte larvae. This astonished Mr. Adee greatly. He sent the embryonic Insects to the ag ricultural department for further sci entific investigation. Under treatment the larvae promptly developed into magnificent mosquitoes. As the larvae were found in the in terior of the rock and Smithsonian In> stitutlon experts regard the age of the 'T»rth as anvwbere from sixty to two hundred million years, the minimum figures has been adopted as the prob able age of the Brazilian mosquitoes.

KISS NOTE PARTS FAMILIES Separates One Couple and Keeps An other Apart—Husband Seeks Reconciliation. Sunbury, Pa.—Amos Frederick Re busk testified in court that when he found a letter Curtis Woodruff. Cleve land, is alleged to have sent Mrs. Re buck, it broke up his home. The note was read in court as follows: “Darling Alice: I long to hold you in my arms and kiss those ruby lips, but I can't. 1 send much love and many kisses.” Rebuck was a witness in the behalf of Mrs. Curtis Woodruff, who sued her husband three years ago for desertion, since which time he had to pay her $10 per month. He is now trying to have court dissolve the order, claim ing she refused a recent offer he made to live with him again. Mrs. Wood ruff says he was not sincere enough. A Hint. “Talk Is cheap." “Not where you’re paying a legis lature to do things." helped to cheer the men and brace them for their military gait. A large crowd of the townspeople, presumably of the opposite party, assembled on the open space at the end of the bridge to watch the procession go by. The people, however, gave no in dtcatioil of their feelings. They neither cheered, hissed nor spoke to the Orangemen as they filed past. Everybody Seemed remarkably cool and self-possessed. I found Derry a cheap town in com parison with American towns, but it is not more than other Irish or Eng lish towns.

J.—A stranger called at the home of Miss Jennie Joline. who lives on the Eatontown boule vard near Red Bank, for the purpose of looking over the bouse and prop erty with a view of buying it. He was allowed to inspect the premises, and in the conversation that followed the visitor said he was an optician. Miss Joline, whose eyes troubled her, asked him to test her sight He placed two pairs of glasses over her eyes, and after that she remembered nothing until she regained conscious ness about three hours later. Miss Joline had her purse, contain ing $13, with her when her eyes were being tested, and the intruder not only took it. but money and a large quantity of silverware were also missing from the house. She is now confined to her bed under the care of --— a physician. She is in a critical con dition. An investigation will be made to ascertain the drug used by the bogus optician.

Ancients of Pacific Able. Victoria, B. C.—News of an interest ing archaeological find on Fanning is land. in mid-Pacific, indicating the is land was once inhabited by a skilled race, was brought here by the steam ship Makura. Excavators have unearthed a large stone building. 200x50 feet. No mor- ! ta. was used in its construction, the stone having been skillfully mortised together. In this building was found a tomb containing a human skeleton with a necklace of the teeth of the cachelot and other articles, including the skull o fa dog. It is believed the island was one of the resting places of the Polynesians during their early migrations. Re cently it was purchased by a British Canadian syndicate for use as a coal ing station, in view of the opening of the Panama canal. Russian Girls on Begging Tour. Geneva.—Coming from French ter ritory. a band of nomad Russian girls, fourteen to twenty years old, and who were headed by two old women, have entered Swiss territory over the Col des Roches, on their way to Neucha tel. They were arrested by Swiss gen darmes. and the old women explained in broken German that their fathers, husbands and brothers had been killed in the Russo-Japanese war. or had been exiled to Siberia, and as they could not obtain a living in Russia they had undertaken a tegging tour in Europe. The story happens to be true, but how the band of girls crossed the Russo-German and French frontiers without any papers or passports is a mystery. IMAGE SEmi Recent French Invention Tha’ Opens Great Possibilities. Photographs Can Be Sent by Te!e graph With Great Accuracy and Some Speed Whenever Nec essary Apparatus Exists. Paris.—It has been possible for some time to send photographs by wire with great accuracy and some speed, wherever the necessary appa ratus exists. Such transmission has for a year or so formed part of the regular Paris service of an enterpris ing London journal. Suppose, however, that a reporter finds himself at a country telegraph station ar.d desires fo send to his paper a picture of some kind in connection with his story— portrait, or the photograph of some building or locality. He is evidently no better off than he would have been s century ago. A recent process, how ever, the invention of a French en gineer named Mortier, would make it possib'e for him to send his picture nver a single wire, with the aid of the ordinary telegraphic instruments—nr rather, it would enable him to tele graph data from which the picture con’d be built up at the receiving sta tion. This process is described by R. Bounin in La Nature, where we read: ‘'Mortier’s process requires neither rostly and delicate apparatus nor any peculiar installation, nor a special wire. It will work anywhere, using jnder normal conditions the existing J telegraphic plant of the smallest lo- j ralitles and without the least inter- j Terence with its ordinary administra tion. “What was necessary to obtain this resuit?

But this process, which has the inconvenience of being slow and uncertain, has been happily ■eplaced by Mr. Mortier by the follow ng, which may be called automatic: "The picture to be transmitted is Irst printed in an enlarged form sus ceptible of easy analysis. This ana ytic print has two valuable properties —first, it is naturally cut up by a gril age of fine lines; secondly, the squares do not appear as more or jss gray or transparent elements whose tone cannot be evaluated nu merically, nor as groups of points whose light value can be stated in lumbers only after a laborious meas irement, but rather as black sil | nouettes against a white ground or vice versa, of forms so diversified as to ! embrace an extended scale of shades md so striking as to be identified at :ight "These expressive figures arise spon aneously in the course of the macipu j lations, simple enough, that turn out j the analytic proof.

The zoned cellular transpar | ancy, a simple sheet that has been placed in the printing frame between the original negative and the sensitive paper, before the printing of the ana lytic proof, operates this miracle by itself alone. At first sight this trans parent sheet shows a simple marking in squares, but under the microscope the appearance of the network gives place to an arrangement of square cells of complex structure which re produce exactly the typical outlines of the symbolic silhouettes of the pre ! ceding illustration. “After the preparation of the print, the analysis of it amounts to no more than the simple reading of a page and the jotting down of the figures in or ler.” Starving Russians Sell Children.
