77ie courtship period for

passed long since, when it won the con
fidence and esteem of thoughtful men and
women 50 years ago.,
You need have no doubts, if, when you
go to buy Sarsaparilla, you simply say the
old name
tc
ff
Ayers
That is the hind that cured your fathers
and their fathers before them, and it is
the kind that will cure you. Other
Sarsaparillas may look like it, may even
taste like it, but somehow or other they

attempt to keep away from the fierce
light that has been beating upon her
ever since her engagement was an
nounced. During their short visit to
the Waldorf-Astoria the burned-out
bride jand groom appeared one evening
at diaaer ia the large dining hall. Mrs.
Vanderbilt's gown actually glared with
shiaing spangles the size of a dime.
All one could see was a gleaming,
flashing mass of changing lights. The
waist was decolette and had no sleeves.
Diamonds were worn about the throat

Ia April St. Its.
Experience ass t-aght me that this
is a more subtle process thaa I bars
formerly thought, aad that if varieties
oace cross, the type of either parent
remains la the blood of the race for
many corn generations, writes J. J. H.
Gregory la Our Graage Homes. To Il
lustrate: For a long series of years I
bad raised the Longfellow variety of
eld cora, and had always doas my
owa seed raising, exercising excecdlag
cars to have every ear the narsst typs
af the variety, yet every seasoa there
has shows itself two or three ears oa
each acre of the old Early Dattoa cora
and of a very large keraeled sort,
somewhat later than the Longfellow.
Many years sgo I plaated la oas of
my lots located in the midst of a great
pasture and far removed from other
tillage land, a small plot of Mexlcaa
sweet cora. As most people kaow,
this Is a purple variety which Is excep
tionally tender and sweet but It Is
necessary to isolate it in order to keep
it pure. The seed I planted had every
indication in the way of color of being
pure, but on some""of the ears from
which it was taken were kernels of
the color of the common sweet' cora.
The crop was of all colors, wholly Ba
st for seed. I occasionally lad yel
low kernels among my sweet corn,
proving a cross betweea it sad our
common yellow field cora; each ker
nels when cooked show their cross la
their taste, which combines the lavor
of both parents. To bring such a cross
out by Isolated growth into a distinct
variety is the work of years, though
within my remembrance It has been
accomplished in three instances. All
crossing Is done by the fine dust from
the tassel, which holds the place of
the stamina in flowers, falling on the
silk of the ears. If there is no pollen
there can be no corn, as can be
proved by cutting oft the tassel Just
before the pollen matures. For this
reason varieties can be raised side by
side, snd the one desired kept pure by
removing the tassels from sll the
other sorts, or by planting varieties
that do not tassel at the same time,
though In such esse one will be spt to
find that the latest ears of the early
sort will show a cross mads by the
earliest maturing tassels of the later
sorts.
An old farmer once told me the
story of a selfish neighbor who refased
him seed of an Improved variety of
corn. "Never you mind, I -will yet
have It" said be. "and honestly, too."
He watched his opportunity when that
neighbor located his corn patch on an
island in the river which divided the
two farms, snd planted a piece of
corn on the river bank opposite; he
carefully removed the spindles as they
appeared, with the result that the silk
was fertilized from the pollen from the
corn growing on the island, and thus
that variety was transferred to the
farmer's cobs as certainly as though
It had beea taken kernel by kernel aad
grafted there.

Healthj Potatoes.
Potato growers who want to have
potatoes with bright clean skins, free
from scab, should not neglect to ase
the necessary precautions to have
them so. First plant on new soli,
or that not already infested with the
scab fungus, for It Is proved that the
fungus lives in the soil for a year or
two. says Vicks Magazine. Planting
should be done where some other crop
than the potato has been grown for
two years previous. Second, having
washed the seed notatoes. immerse
them 'in a solution of corrosive sub
limate in order to kill any scab fungus
on the tubers. Use two and a quarter
ounces of corrosive sublimate in fif
teen gallons of water. Dissolve the
corrosive sublimate in two gallons of
hot water, and then add thirteen gal
lons more of water. Use a large tab
or a barrel; metallic vessels will be
corroded by the liquid. Place the po
tatoes to be treated In a large, coarse
sack and sink it into the liquid, allow
ing it to remain an hour and a half;
at the end of that time lift them out
and turn them out on a floor to dry.
when they can be cut up and planted!
ine sack or potatoes can be conven
iently handled, in lifting it In and oat
of the barrel, by means of a lever on a
post near the barrel, sufficiently high
to work easily, something like an old
fashioned well sweep, and which say
one can easily and quickly rig up.
This will be necessary only when a
considerable quantity of potatoes are
to be treated. As the corrosive mix
ture is poisonous, care should be taken
not to touch it to the hands, especially
if the skin is broken; alsq to keep the
treated tubers away from poultry or
cattle.

Stop the Waste.
From Farmers' Review: In the fruit
Industry the wsste often consumes
the profits. An Inopportune rain or
wind at the time when the fruit is
jest ripening often ruins the hopes
and anticipations of a whole year The
failure to use the right kind of a pack
age and to make the fruit look its best
in it often degrades the quality In
the estimation of the buyer from first
to second-class with the corresponding
reduction of price. The crowded mar
ket of Saturday often leaves on hand
of the grower a few crates of berries
which are worthless when the market
ripens on the following week. The
insects somehow find their way to the
iruu ana just at ine tune when it
should ripen we find that It Is ruined.
Nice cases out of ten of failure in the
fruit business comes through loss due
to waste. The successful fruit grower
must learn early in his career that his
products are at all times tender and
quickly perishable. He must so far
as he is able, prevent the contact of
any agent that destroys or reduces the
value of the fruit This is not some
thing that is beyond his power. By a
vigilant warfare against insects he caa
greatly increase the quantity and Im
prove me quality of the crop which
ne is to receive. Cold storage asTords
one of the most practical means of
preventing waste ia the fruit crop that
we have. Apples that fall from ths
tree when almost ripe, aad are lost
sre frequently ripe enough to be pick-
cu una piscea in cold storage. The
fact that apples for cold storage
should be picked while solid Is vaala
ble information to those who realise
that their f rcit is dropping badly while
la that state. Aa fee aad cold storage
house on the fruit farm Is of
value ia preventing the waste la

that magazine's Spanish war series,
giving, as it does, an account by every
American commanding officer but one
or tne part pisyed by his ship in the
famous flght off Santiago, that result
ed in the annihilation of Cervera's
fleet Captain Evans describes the do
ings of the lows, Captain Taylor of the
Indiana, Captain (now rear admiral)
Philip of the Texas, Captain Cook of
the Brooklyn, Captain Chadwick of the
New York and Lieutenant Command
er Wainwright of the Gloucester, while
Captain Clark of the Oregon endorses
Lieutenant Eberie's story of the Ore
gon, and contributes a criticism of the
Spanish admiral's strategy.
Admiral Deweys favorite watch is
made of steel from the sunken battle

similar timepiece. Both were made by
a patriotic down-east Yankee.

A unique banking institution, to he
known as the Retailers' National Bank
of Pittsburg, is about to open its doors
with $200,000 capital. The banking
authorities st Washington have ap
proved the application for its organ-1
Izatlon. The principal feature of the j
bank will be collecting outstanding
accounts of retail merchants and the
discounting of their notes on such out
standing accounts. Retail accounts
have always proved an annoyance to
merchants, and many of the bills have
proved uncollectible. The new bank
is to collect the money, and in some
cases appraise the value of the ac
counts and assume the risk. The bank
will also give the merchants accommo
dations on accounts left with it for
collection, having the accounts as
signed to it and being given a note.
This will be discounted, snd the com
mission for collecting also deducted.
The bank will endeavor to have the
acounts of a patron collected before
a note reaches maturity.
