Store Burglarized. This morning when Mr. W. H. ; Baker w'ent to his store he the’ front door open and on investigation j found that burglars had during last I night, in some unknown way, entered j his place of business. Mr. Baker says be can miss nothing ’ but cigars and tobacco. No clue is to be had of the thieves. Better Times- Everywhere there are indications of better times. The prices are going up on all commodities. Iron continues to advance and there is a prospect that cotton will bring better prices nrxt fall. The estimate of the acreage this year by Latham Alexander A Com pany, is 10 per cent lees than the actual acreage of 1898 The figures are 21,106,000 against 23 572,000 last year. This is based on reports from 2 577 correspondents and is believed to be approximately correct. The smaller acreage, together with the industrial revival all over the world, and the better demand for most commodities, seems to indicate a bet ter price for the staple this fall unless the yield should be abnormally large. The opinion of James M. Schwanlk, the leading eiatirtican of the iron in dustry of the United States, is that the heavy demand of the present will last for some time and that it will be sev eral years before the supply of iron largely exceeds the d< mat'd In this the Statist <-, new. That journal says : ■Our own belief is that nowhere can the supplies of ore be , increased this year as to et.able the estimated quan tity of pig iron to be smelted. The future supplies can bo increased if the price of iron is maintained at a con siderably higher level than in recent pastyears. Ir. other words, we have entered upon an era of dearer iron, whan instead of forties (shillings) con sumers will have to reckon with pig iron in sixties, if not in seventies.” Iron is considered a barometer of business.

Drawn Into Conversation. Judge George W. Stubbs said yes terday that the most selfish people on earth were to be found among passen gers on railroad trains, says the Indi apolis Sentinel. He said that last winter one of the coaches on a train coming Vi est was comfortably filled as it passed the state line into Indiana. Every seat had some one in it, and in very few were there two persons. Nearly every passenger bad a seat to himself, and they all looted as if they preferred not to be disturbed by mak ing room for a seatmate. A bluff' old farmer with a loud voice got in nt a little station in Randolph county and walked down the aisle looking for a friendly face or a kindly eye, but not seeing any, he asked the most sour looking man on the car to move and give him a seat. The fellow did so, but with a manner that iudica | ted the old man was anything but j welcome. The old farmer wanted to | talk, and tried every way to engage ■ his seat mate in conversation, but the j through passenger would have none jof it. The old farmer was determined Ito draw him out, and after several in 1 i effectual efforts, raised his voice loud ; enough to be heard all over the can ard said “I killed a hog yesterday for my winter’s meat. How much do you think he weighed ?” The through passenger looked worse I bored il-.iii ever, but finally said : ‘‘l I don’t know anything about hogs.” “Ob, well, you might make a guess.” “Well, say 300.” “No, he didn’t weigh that much Guess again." “Well, I’ll say 200 ” "T o higlfQ he wasn’t as heavy as' that. Make another guess ” “1 in not good at guessing. How much did he weigh, anyhow? ’ “Well, you have had two guesses; but you see, be wasn’t much of a hog, and 1 didn’t weigh him.” - - THE MODERN BEAUTY Thrives on good food and sufifebine, with plenty of exercise in the open air.

August Mader, a Chisago beau, is in the habit of sweetening himself with i cologne before calling on his sweet heart. Being in a hurry the other . night, without striking a light, be • dampened his I ankerebief from a b>t» lie on his bureau, dabbed his face and . forehead over with ii, and sallied forth : to seek his lady-love. But do sooner had he got more than fairly upon the I street than he was set upon bv a mis ion of the law and locked up on the charge of being a suspicious character , if not a lunatic It transpired that he had gotten bold of a bottle of ink in' • lead of cologne. c Jfk.

By keeping off j these sprouts the entire strength of tho plant is thrown into the upper y part. In order to carry out this plan sues cessfully the e-eed should be sown in a hotbed some time in March and plants set in the field as early as it is safe, j selecting a piece of ground that is not too rich. A sandy soil is all right, but the highest portions or knolls are bet ter than lower, richer lands The plant ’ should be tied to stakes at once, mid as they grow the tying should be re peated. It will be noticed that the first blooms appear at the tops of the plants, and the aim should In to give , the fruit which sets from the e the full , strength of the plant Sprouts will i soon appear near the ground, and i must be broken off promptly ami kept 1 off during the entire season. It is not necessary to pinch the tops of the plants in any way, but us they grow up keep them tied to the stake, which needs to be about 5 feet high. Ordinary tomatoes can be grown in this manner from two to three weeks earlier than if the plants were allowed to fall over on the ground. In giving the foregoing advice, the Ohio Farmer adds that early varieties should of course be selected, and one of the beet for this purpose is Dwarf Champion, but the Advance, Ruby and several Olliers are suitable also.

When to Cut Hay As a general proposition it is best to j cut hay just as it is blooming ; but this I rule may be subject to modifications, according as we want the hay forfetd i - ing dairy cows, horses or other stock- For horses it is probably better to have the hay well along toward maturity. I Storer, in one of bis books, says that > ; “one strong objection that works against the early cutting of hay is the • tendency of hay made from immature ■ grasses to loosen the bowels of animals I that feed upon it. This fact alone pre- ; : eludes the use of such bay for working ■ j horses. All newly made hay has a laxative and loosening effect upon an* I ’ ima's. Such hay c-noot be sold to i ' the keeper of a livery stable, because, I as he would say, he lias no wish to : soften down his horses. Horse keepers are of the opinion ! j that this laxative quality of new hay I endures until the hay has passed through a process of sweating, which occurs in the mow. No matter how dry the liay is at the time it is put in \ the barn, it is held that it w ill always I sweat somewhat in the mow By Oj lob r the process ii e -m; d, so that I the hay is lit for use, ; invided it was ripe enough when mown. But in the 1 case of hay made from young grass, as rowen, for example, the medicinal quality persist, and such bay is j thought to be always unfit for horses ■ i that are kept at work, since it is apt to weaken them, to make them sweat 1 easily, and to render them liable to > stumble.

Her Disadvantage- “I can’t understand,” said the great financier to his beautiful young type writer, according to the Chicago Times-Herald, “why you feel warrant ed in asking me to pay you a larger salary than that young fellow emp'oy ed by our vice president gets for doing the same kind of work.” She permitted her long curling lash es to veil her eyes and a wave of color mounted to her soft, round cheeks. “Well,” she said at last, in low sweet tones, ‘ I think I am justified in making the demand. I admit that the young man you have referred to docs fully as much work as I do, and yet and yet—” “Yes, yes,” the old gt utleman urged ; "go on!

God Knows Which Was Right- Some one has said that there is no place on earth that cannot boast of at least one point of interest,, and Ger mantown, Va., is no exception to the rule.
