AUout H. hiij*. Beans are divided into two classes, pole or running and dwarf. These arc again divided into war, green pod ded, white and English. The first two are eaten pods and all. The wax beans are considered the richest but are not as har ly as the green-podded. Hoi Stall*. , Every barn should have one or more box stalls In it for the accommodation of sick animals and cows that are about to caive. large enough so that the animal could turn round, and those working ahvot it would have room enough, and n should be on the sun ny side of the building and well venti lated. Tli ( ttbltuKe Worm. The cabbage worm is hatched from an egg laid by the white butterfly.* Numerous remedies have been pro posed, but the best method is to de stroy as many of the butterflies as possible. Hot water, saltpetre, black pepper. et< , have not given satisfac tory results The kerosene emulsion will prevent attack, but it leaves an S/dor on the cabbage. For a small patch insect powder is excellent, but It must be used frequently. Paris greau is used, but consumers object, fearing its poisonous effects, though it is claimed as a safe remedy. I*ropor F(mml for I<t*yin|? Hen*. Laying benH require food rich in the elements which compose the albumen or white of the egg. The carbonaceous material is plentifully supplied when they are given corn and wheat, but meat. mWk, iin seed meal, brun. finely et/t clover, gluten meal and bone meal should also be given by way of va riety Those foods need not be al lowed every lay, but may be fed as re quired. or about three times a week. The ground commercial meat should be given if fresh meat is not obtaina ble!. Cow peas may be grown as a special food for poultry, as they can not lie excelled when used for laying lions and growing chicks. fotiiiuerini: (lie Onion Mciiul. In some .sections the onion maggot is the greatest nuisance. These are hatchod from ftc 3 eggs deposited by a tty in the leaf just below the surface of the ground. This trouble is more apt. to appear in old beds, yet not al ways. for I hive had crops greatly in jured by the maggot on ground but two years from the sod. on which on ions were never before grown. Thick planting is to a degree a wise precau tion. tint as tne fly passes from onion to onion, depositing her eggs. tle bed will presen' but a patchwork of a crop at the beat. Many rent dies are prescribed, but most of them are practically worth less on largo areas, as they Involve the outlay of too much time and mon ey. Ttfe two that 1 have most faith in, founded on rhe experience of myself nd neighbors, is to run over the bed with a roller immediately after plant tag This compacts the earth so that the fly cannot so readily deposit her ftggs below the surface. The other remedy is to lot Hie piece with smal l , movable coops, which confine the hens but permit the young chicks to ram ble; theije will soon learn to lie on the watch for the fly Sometimes a slight change of location will give ground free from the maggot. The coming and golug of the maggot is well illus trate! in my own experience. The laud which i am now cultivating to onioua is free from the maggot, though years ago it was so infested 1 was fairly banished from it. 1 sometimes meet the id-* that the pest is carried ir the seed. This is untrue, because impossible, as all entomologists will agree.— J. J H. Gregory, in New Eng land Homestead. When j%ul How lo Prune. All person* familiar with birches sud maples know that if any limbs sre taken from them in the late win ter or spring time, the stubs will bleed freely for a number of weeks; and if such limbs ire large ones, they sel dom heal over before decay has com menced in them. Apple and pear trees will bleed more or less when pruned at the same sea sous of the year; and for that reason no pruning, when targe limbs are to be taken oft. should be done at that time of the year When pruning is done during ihe midsummer months, the stubs commence to heal over quite coon, and they can be painted within a few days after pruning, if the weath er is warm and dry. which cannot be done, aud have the paint hold, if the pruning is done before the bleeding has ceased to Row. During the sum mer months the .*ap is thickening for the making of new wood and is largely near the bark and not in the older wood of the trees. Trees that are pruned in the spring are from one to two years longer iii healing than if pruned in summer, and that fact is of great importance when the life and health of the trees are taken into con sideration. Now how should a tree be pruned? Should the stubs be left long or short, oj with as little wood as the circum stances will permit. Any person who has taken much notice of how others have pruned, an well as his own work, has noticed that the longer the stubs are left the longer they are in healing over.' aud in many cases they never heal over, but dry up or decay, which In many is the beginning of the decay and death of the tree. One other error in pruning is often made in not sawing the limbs off as nearly as possible perpendicular with the body of the trees or the larger limbs from which they are taken. By taking off the limbs perpendicular rather than horizontal, more or less, the lower parts of the stub or wound will heal over nearly or quite as soon as the upper part—Jonah H. Pries, In The Country Gentleman. Ifio<*u 1 ft l ln |g the Roil. That an animal may be inoculated with disease or with ‘omc remedy for disease, is well known, but the sci ence of agriculture has so far ad vanced as to aid In inoculating the soil. This subject has been previous ly treated, but experiments are being made every year, and they add much information for farmers who are inter ested in soil inoculation. In Farmers’ Bulletin No. 124 the I'nited States ag ricultural department gives the re ports of results in this direction. Ni trogen is the most expensive fertiliz er, yet it is the most abundant, form ing four-fifths of the atmosphere, thougli only under rare conditions is free nitrogen available for plant growth. It has long been known, how ever, that leguminous plants, such as clover, alfalfa and cow peas, are rich in nitrogen, and increase the nitrogen contents of the soils upon which they are grown. They have the power to appropriate the free nitrogen of the air, but only when small nodules are found on their roots. It is now be lieved that these bacteria draw their nitrogen from the air and convert it into forms which can be utilized by the plants on which the nodules grow. Whenever one or more of the legumin ous crops are grown it should be the duty of the grower to carefully exam ine the roots of some of the plants for these nodules. If they are not found then the plants will not make any ac tual gain in nitrogen, but when a crop like clover has been grown at inter vals for a number of years it is proba ble that the soil contains the proper bacteria for forming the nodules, but the bacteria growing upon the roots of clover may not grow upon the roots of another genus, such as the cow pea or vetch. Every genus has its own characteristic bacteria. When the no- ' dules are not formed on the roots of [ the plants it is possible to produce j them by inoculating the soil by pro- j curing soil from a field which has pro duced a crop of the same kind which had the nodules on the roots. The soil may be inoculated when the seed of the crop is sown, or at some time during its growth. In Kansas j inoculated soil was obtained from a soy bean field in Massachusetts, and by scattering it over the Kansas land plants with tubercles were grown, pro ducing an increased field and a higher percentage of nitrogen. Several meth ods of inoculating were tried. Tho seeds were thoroughly wetted in a bag suspended in wnter into which some of the Massachusetts soil had been stirred. Again, the dry soil was broadcasted over some plots, and in other cases was drilled in with the seed. Thp best results were obtained by drilling in the inoculated earth. To secure plenty of the inoculated soil the following is the method: In a row 500 feet long incorporate 100 pounds of inoculated soil at the time of sowing the seed. After harvesting the crop take up the soil in the row to the depth of four or five inches and spread it on. boards in the shade to dry. When dry It may be stored away for use in sacks. When planting a field to sow beans or cow peas apply the inoculat ed soil, with the seed by means of a fertilizer attachment to a grain drill, or broadcast for clover, but do not overlook the fact, ns stated, that inoc ulated soil for sov beans will not an swer for cow peas. Each kind of le gume has its own special bacteria. There are also artificial cultures bot tled for use. known as “nltragin." but which are too costly to use. except as a “starter,” from which a certain amount of seal can be inoculated. Any farmer who will procure a two bushel bag of soil from a field upon which clover, cow peas, soy beans, vetch or any other legume has been grown, pro vided the roots of such plants contain nodules, may inoculate his own soil for such crops. Experiments with hairy vetch, grown on a soil for the first time, one lot of seed was dipped into a water solution of earth from an old garden spot upon which vetch had been grown and for comparison another plot w'as sown without treatment. The Inocu lated plants had large clusters of tu percules on the roots and produced 2540 pounds of cured hay per acre. The uninoculated plants had no tubercules and produced only 232 pounds of hay. In a crop of crimson clover inoculated seed produced an average of 4057 pounds, while the uninoculated seed produced only 761 pounds per acre. These results were at the Alabama sta tion. the commercial bottled “nitra gin" being used. The gaiu in nitrogeu is large, that from the inoculated crimson clover being about 148 pounds while the nitrogen from the uninocu lated .plot was less than five pounds. The inoculated hairy vetch gave over 105 pounds of nitrogen and the unin oculated only seven pounds. At the Mississippi station the yield >f hairy vetch was increased over 64 percent by scattering inoculated soil in the drills. The nodules will, no doubt, in time, de velop without inoculation, but the. work is slow, hence it is better to noculate the soil. It will probably )e found not necessary to inoculate oils that are capable of producing Vrge crops of the legumes, as no doubt he nodules will be found on the roots i such cases, but for poor soils that re deficient in nitrogen, and upon which the leguminous plants do not thrive, the soil should be inoculated. Superstitious persons say that a ■wart cut off .by tying a silk thread round it and drawing the ends tightly will never return. THE WEEKLY NEWS, CARTERSYILLE, GA.

A certain teacher told his class in physics one day that there is no such thing as cold, that being merely a relative term, implying a deficiency of heat. Even ice, he said, has heat in it. This staggered the boys somewhat, and one of them asked the teacher how it might be demonstrated. So the teacher directed him to get two small pieces of ice and go out into the school yard and rub them together briskly. The temperature outside was several degrees below the freezing point, and the boy was sent into the yard to make the experiment more convincing. He returned after a little while, and reported that the rubbing of the pieces together had melted them both. “That,” said the teacher, “Is exact ly what I expected, for the friction produced by the rubbing woke the heat in the ice, and of course it melted." A I.ernion for the Prince. One of the many stories told in Ger many about the crown prince’s child hood has almost become a household word with his future subjects, so fre quently has it been told in nurseries. Nothing afforded the young prince when a child of six or seven greater pleasure than to watch the sentries salute as he passed in or out of the castle at Potsdam, and the old sol diers were kept at it from night till morning. This delight was equaled only by his aversion to water, and the poor woman who was charged with his toilet averred that he lay awake nights devising a means to escape the cold morning bath. One day the child rushed in upon the emperor and em press as they sat at breakfast with a fierce complaint against the sentry who neglected to salute him as usual that morning. The emperor drew his son close to him. examined him curi ously and then replied: “I don't won der, my son. the poor sentry did not recognize the crown prince in this dirty-faced little boy, so I cannot have him reprimanded.” This was the last time the prince ever refused to have his face washed. How a Klind Historian Wrote. William Hlckling Prescott, the great historian, who wrote “Ferdinand and Isabella,” “Conquest of Mexico” and “Conquest of Peru,” labored under great disadvantages, for he was al most blind. He disliked the work of dictating his matter to an amanuensis who could write his pages for him, and se he used a contrivance that enabled him to write his own books with some degree of skill. He pos sessed a writing box, the top being made as a frame, in which were set horizontally brass wires something like those seen in an abacus or count ing machine. Under these wires be placed a sheet of white paper, under that a sheet of carbon paper over a sheet on which the writing was to ap pear. Mr. Prescott used instead of a pen a stylus, which left no mark upon the upper paper. By means of the brass wires he was enabled to keep the lines nearly regular. The “copy” appeared on the white paper under the carbon paper. Mr. Prescott wrote nearly all of those famous books of his by this means. It was long be fore the typewriter had been invented, and all matter had first to be written by hand. Baby’* Present. Stitch, stitch, stitch; oh. how busy they were! Fred, Kitty, Jem, Nance and Baby. The room was tilled with the noise of Fred’s fret saw, as he busily worked away, while Jem kept asking nurse for “more paint water, please.” ‘‘We shall have to be quick,” said Kitty, presently, “for mother’s birth day is only the day after tomorrow.” ‘’Oh, dear, said Nance, ‘ and I have two more seams to sew.” Suddenly Baby jumped up from the hearth rug where she had been sit ting. "Me work; me make a pesent for mumma.” she cried. ‘‘Kitty, listen; can’t me do some-pin?” ‘‘You’re too little, Baby; you must give mother a big kiss. You must wait to work until you are big, like us,” answered Kitty. “Me wants to: me’ll make ” Baby paused and looked around the room, while Kitty picked up another ball of wool. ’ ‘ Well, go and think about it,” she suggested, feeling sure that Baby would soon forget. As the little girl toddled back to the rug mother’s step was out side. and the way those presents flew out of sight was simply wonderful. Of course mother pretended not to know anything, but, perhaps she was not very much surprised to hear, on the important morning, the sounds of whispering and laughing outside her door. Soon all was quiet again; she opened the door and saw quite a pile of queer shaped parcels. Then the children sprang out of their hiding places. "Oh! do begin to open them, moth er, quick!” cried Nance, dancing arounu iu her little white nightgown. "But you must not run about like j this in the cold,” said mother; "get into my bed;” and how they laughed as she chased them in! "That's from me!” cried Fred, as mother unpacked a pretty craved bracket. "And I made the cuffs, mother; do you like them?” said Kitty. “They are very nice, dear,” an swered mother, "and 1 am sure Nance worked this pretty nightdress case; and I think I know who did this, too.” Jem laughed as she picked up his picture. But before she had time to thank them the door opened, and who would trot in but Baby! She carried a big basket covered with feathers and garden flowers. "Here’s my present, mumma,” she cried. “It’s a bonnet for you to wear when you go to church!” Mother said afterward that she did not know when she had laughed so much, while Baby sat on the pillow crowing with delight.—Cas3ell’s Little Folks. I>atl, an Army Mule, Dad is an army mule. There are men in the Ninth who would rather be detailed for the dynamite gun than to risk a “bout” with Dad, but Sergt. O’Hara swears by the big animal. In the bleak garrison w'here Com pany E is stationed, the weather clerk is generous, and snow storm follows snow storm in an endless succession. One stormy afternoon, Sergt. O'Hara was ordered to go a short dis tance into the country to purchase some hay. The horses being else where, the sergeant saddled Dad aud sallied out in the storm, forewarned by the usual driver to "git him back before feed time or there’ll he no fun in the gait you’ll travel.” By 5 o’clock the storm increased so that it was impossible to see any dis tance; and when tattoo was sounded, and still no Dad to be seen, a council was held, and it was decided that a rescue party must go out before the intense cold of night should benumb the rider. It was unanimously agreed that Dad must have thrown the ser geant. But if so, where was Dad? And feed time long past! In a very short time the detail was ready. They floundered down the road, seeing and hearing nothing but the sheets of fine snow and the shriek of the wind. Past the little burial ground of the post, thence across the iron bridge out upon the flats be yond. They called, and listened, and plunged on again, waving their lan terns and shouting at every step. Just at the bend of the road they heard a faint and joyous “Hee-aw!” The weary men took heart, and shout ing wmrds of cheer, as they breasted the big drifts, they saw the army mule. He was standing faithful guard over the prostrate and unconscious form of Sergeant O’Hara. Energetic measures soon revived the half-frozen man, so that he could sit upon the sad dle once more, and the next day the entire company had talked over his story in amazement. While coming down a steep hill, the mule had slipped and floundered, so that the sergeant dismounted, thinking to walk the rest of the way. So they struggled on together, in the increasing cold and storm. Finally, becoming numb and weak, he had sunk down in the road, being careful to free the bridle that Dad’s arrival at the post might be the signal for his rescue. After that, he was dimly conscious of a warm nose being brushed over his face, and then of being lifted bod ily and carried a few feet. After a period of unconsciousness, he knew he was being dragged steadily along by his clothes. It seemed miles to his disordered brain before he felt that he had been laid in a more shel tered spot, and he sank peacefully to sleep. The men were Inclined to discredit his story as a dream of his wandering mind, but when a corporal and four men brought in Sergeant O’Hara’s whip, which they had found buried in the snow nearly half a mile from the place of his rescue, and just w'here the sergeant insisted that he fell, there was no more laughing at the mention of old Dad’s name, and no one jeered at the “Hoodoo” of the corral whep he brought out the dump cart for his usual round, with a bunch of blue ribbon under each flapping ear.—Our Animal Friends. The King’* Finger-Cowl. When a member of the royal family comes to dinner it is a point of eti quette, as all our readers know, to provide none but the illustrious guest with a finger bowl at. the end of the banquet. The other diners must get on somehow without that convenience. The reason is a curious one. In early Georgian days one never knew who was loyal; every other man might be a Jacobite in his secret heart. Now, it was a piece of Jacobite ritual, when ever the toast of “The King” was drunk, secretly to pass the goblet over any water that happened to be by the drinker. This was supposed to con vert the toast into that of “The King over the water.” the exiled Stuart at Rome or St. Germaine. On this becom ing known the court insisted that there should be no water within reach of any guest, and the prohibition still holds. —London Daily News. A Hack and Some Stranger*.

A little star is woven into the sur face of the dark navy blue piques. A white star studs the surface of such a pique, and a self-colored pique has the star outlined with a corded edge. For a child the white star is piefer able. For girls and women the col ored star is a good choice. The new line of piques brought forward for 1901 shows double fold piques, instead of the old single width. Double width materials cut to advantage, as every good needle-woman knows. Seven Enterprising Women, The woman with the hoe is with us. At Roslyn, L. 1., Mrs. I. P. Taber- Willets is conducting one of the mod el dairy farms of this country. Mrs. Virginia C. Meredith of Cambridge, Ind., was recentily selected for the ex periment of maintaining an agricul tural school for girls, on similar lines to the agricultural colleges for boys. Mrs. Mary Gould Woodcock of Ripley, Me., is raising trotting horses. In Missouri. Miss Minnie Kulick runs a large poultry farm. Miss Nellie Hawks is doing the same kind of work at Friend, Neb. From a wheat farm of 640 acres in Lucca, N. D., Miss Mary R. Vance derives an annual profit of 50 percent. The Duke farm near Summerville, N. J., now being laid out in parks and fishing lakes, and on which 350 men are employed, is managed by Miss Maggie Smith. Deportment In tlie Siek Room. The duties of the trained nurse, no matter how nearly to perfection she has reached in her calling, arc light when compared to the service of the loving person who is nearest to the sick one, who must stand ready al ways to upbear and bring back the self to its old place. Love and rea son must work in perfect harmony in the awful struggle to conquer the forces that threaten to capture the citadel of life. But love should not Le allowed to gain the mastery over reason, for if love rules alone, the nat ural anxiety of the watcher is bound to be expressed, aud this will not be without its evil effect on the condition of the sick one. At all times must the person on guard to fight off the advances of death be in absolute con trol of herself or himself. She must not yield to the fear that may be ly ing heavily upon her heart—at any rate, not before the one she watches. To conceal the anxiety natural to the situation is not easy; it requires much strength of purpose and at times the exercise of all the skill and tact the watcher may possess.—Mary R. Bald win, in the Woman’s Home Com panion. Simple Gown* for Girl*. Mercerized cotton makes charming frocks for young girls, and the materi al looks like a fine and improved sat een. Such cotton stuffs are quite in expensive, and come in all fashionable shades. Then, too, a foulard silk gown is a good investment for a young girl. Of course the design with which it is patterned should be appropriately youthful and dainty. Many of last year’s foulards are now sold at lower cost than the weaves this year, and often they will be found charming and dainty for the gown of the grow ing girl. The red frocks —the plain red and red and white —are especially fashionable just now for young girls, and can be found in almost all the ma terials that are in vogue this • year. These frocks should be in all red; if possible, but if not, relieved with white. Black should not be put on such gowns, but should be left for the trimming of the gowns of older women. In these days when there is no particular difference in the materi als worn by young and old, there must needs be come difference in the trim ming, otherwise the effect of youth is lost entirely, and the gown has the ap pearance of being done over. Trimmings of pleated chiffon, gowns of chiffon, and also net gowns, are in favor, made up with less elab oration than is shown in the gowns cf older women. Accordion-pleated skirts, when they are becoming, are pleasing for slender figures, but they must be carefully made and well draped over the hips, and the tucked skirts or the pleated skirts with the pleats cut down underneath or sitched through are, as a rule, more becoming than the accordion-pleated ones.—Har per’s Bazaar. Jewel* on the Forehead. News comes from Paris to the effect that the fervoniere is undoubtedly coming back to favor. Forty years ago no one would have needed to be told what a fervoniere was, and many of the ornaments are in the posesssion of women lucky enough to have inher ited jewels. The old-fashioned fervoniere was a forehead jewel, usually a large uncut gem set in heavy gold work. It was worn in the centre of the forehead attached to a gold fillet, or more often, a band of black velvet which passed around the head. The ornament was marvellously be coming to a certain classical type of face, but lamentably disfiguring to the ordinary woman The Empress Josephine was particularly fo nd the fervoniere. which became her °i though her face was far from classic me uncovered foreheads of recent seasons opened the way for a of this old fashion, and the jewellel stars and crescents which were worn low against the forehead with Parted fringe of hair hinted at he fervoniere; but now a number of P a nsian beauties have taken up the old mode in earnest and have appeared with splendid jewels gleaming U po n their white foreheads just above tbei* brow. The velvet band and fillet have not appeared, the modern fervoniere be ing, as nearly as possible, devoid of visible setting and held in its place by the finest thread of gold or a string of small pearls. The fashion is, 0 f course, extreme, but it has appealed to the Parisians' love of novelty and the French jewelers have innumer aoie orders for the new ornament, while old fervon?eieß are being taken from jewel cases and reset according to the modern taste. —New York Sun. Outdoor Sport*. Games ought to be a part of every girl’s every-day life, and parents anil educators have only in the last few years sanctioned it. It is only of late that women have been heard of in con nection with outdoor sports, though there have probably always been girls who were good at games and who had played them. In golf this is particu larly noticeable. There are no doubt numbers of girls playing quietly on country links who have played for years and would without doubt gain many public honors if they competed for them. In close touch with golf scientific croquet may be classed. Scientific cro quet requires the utmost nicety of strength and aim and the utmost judg ment in making plans for victory and in foreseeing those of the opponent. To be a good player you must not only be able to get through very narrow hoops which do little more than allow the balls to pass under and through, but you must be able to maneuver the balls so that you may be able to make many hops in succession. Good play ers after long practice can go the en tire round at one play. For delicate girls croquet is an ideal game, as it keeps them out of doors and does not call for any appreciable amount of physical strength as do almost all the other outdoor games. Archery is aftother pastime which is coming to the fore. It has always been able to command the enthusiasm of its own world even when outsiders thought it a bygone amusement, an! many archery clubs are now being formed. It is an exercise which does more to make its devotee beautiful than almost any other. It makes th< figure straight and supple and the eye and nerve steady, and since it is al ways practised in the open air it gives to lovers of the sport who otherwise lead sedentary lives the opportunity tc breathe out of doors —something that no other sport will tempt them to en joy. Tennis, as a violent exercise, holds a fond place in the hearts of the admir ers of this sport, and it is certainly an interesting game to the players. It is scarcely necessary to remark how great a hold hockey has obtained in the af fection of girls in the last few years; as a school game it is unrivaled, though it is played little outside, for good hocney grounds are no easy mat ter to find. Cricket, basket-ball. bicycling, swimming, and in winter toboganning and fancy skating about exhaust the pastimes to which girls are allowed to enter. Cricket and basket-ball are played at a great many of the girls’ schools and colleges and by a few pri vate clubs, while the other sports are indulged in whenever and wherever opportunity presents itself. —American Queen. Flowers carefully wired are made into bow effects for the side and back of hats. Nun’s veilings with shiny colored silk borders are among the new mate rials. Muslin well covered with velvet flow ers is predicted as one of the favorite dress materials. Tulle which Is patterned in the form of fish scales over a shimmering foun dation of gold tissue is one of the mil linery novelties. Black, white and blue make one of the most fashionable combinations. Thus, white muslins spotted with black are trimmed with blue embroidery.

The latest evening coiffure shows a sort of puff around the face, broken by a few little curls at one side and loose knots arranged low at the nape of the neck. One large rose is worn at one side of the front. One must be blessed with a fine dis crimination in these (lays in order to choose the latest and most fashionable tint of white, which is called cham pagne, or wine white, as you prefer, and is especially attractive because o its warm tinge. Enamelled flower hatpins have come in for a fresh share of attention now that flowers dominate the millinery de partment. and then there are the in sect pins, with jewelled beetles. an spiders attached to a spring, waka gives them a very realistic appear ance.
