kept me awake by singing. Her
voice did not have a particle of music
in it. and she had no idea whatever
of tune or time, but she made the
loudest noise I ever heard come from
a human being.
In the morning my host said;

“Yes, some of them get $1,000 a

an important surgical operation per
formed that morning, The mud
spattered lip from the street as he
rolled along; and the chilling No¬
vember drizzle gave to the familiar
tree* a forlorn, almost ghastly, a*

tured to himself his wife watching
for him, with a welcoming smile.
from their cozy parlor; dinner ready;
and a long, restful evening before
them.
But a* he drew near home, no
cheerful light streamed from door or
window. All seemed as dark and de
sc rt ed a* the dripping street. He
threw the reins to the boy whose
duty it was to hold the horse on their
professional rounds, arid flung open
the front door with an irritated, in¬
jiired feeling.
No tender smile; no sympathetic
voice; no firelight; no dinner, appar¬
ently.
"Elinor!” he called.
No answer.
“Klinor!"
This time a voice s|«ike out of the
darkness, a tired voice.
“Do be more quiet, John; the baby
is just going to sleep.”
“Confound it! Why isn’t there a
light here? and why isn’t the baby
asleep before this time?”
“He has ....... fretful all day with
his teeth; and I have not bad a
chance to change my dress even,”was
the answer.
A wailing cry from the nursery
sent tbe voice hurrying thither; and
the doctor, with some words not
quite audible, proceeded to light the
gas anil take off hi* damp overcoat.
The house waa cold; the parlor had
evidently been arranged by Hi her
Mali hands; an odor of something
burning stole from the kitchen re¬
gions. A pleasant reception, truly,
for a man after a long day s work!
He ran upstairs with no gentle
footstep*. IDs wife sat by the nur
sery fire; her fa* • wore a weary ex¬
pression, and she had on the same
blue gown which she had donned for
break fa*!. The baby, at length, slept
in her arms. She held up a warning

ing in, lull already baby’s light, alum
I„.|, a ,| |ieen ilMorbed; and the pro
cess of sou.hit g and singing had to
be all 1 e pen tod for the fiftieth time.
It seemed to the young mother as
if her patience could hold out no
longer. It was provoking to have
the little one startled from his un
easy dreams again. She knew Bridget
would s|H*il the dinner. She had been
-ylug all day to get downstairs to

clot nee for her to do one of these
things, Nurse wns away with a sick
sister; and babies always demand
more from thelf mammas than from
any one else. They are tyrannical
little darlings, anti know and seize
every opportunity to prove their
I*ower over the anxious, half-ignor¬
ant young mothers who are happy,
utter nil. to be slaves in such sweet
ae nice.
When, at last, the dinner bell rang,
Mrs. Ford laid baby gently in his
• rili, sound asleep this time, warm
and lovely in his utter repose. She
gave a hurried dab at her wavy lock*,
caught up a fresh handkerchief, and
ran to join her husband, who sat at
t tie table, a decidedly cross look upon
his fine face, lb* barely tasted the
soup, then pushed it away in disgust.
'*Hurtled?” asked the wife.
"t)f course. Can’t you smell it all
over the house? Why don’t you look
after Bridget n little?”
“Why, John, l have hardly been
downstairs today.”
"Where’* flnntiah?”
"She went to her sister’* last

“Oh! yes, I forgot. What’s this?

have nothing else?”
"Would y< n like an omelet. John?**
“No. \ beefsteak, if there is one
in the house.**
Mrs. Ford rose herself and went
into tlie kitchen. The girl, of course,
had just filled up the range with
fresh coal; so there was nothing to
i>e done but to make the l>est of the
cold meat, potatoes ami ittftOironi,
followed by » dessert of apple-pud¬
ding and cheese.
Dr. Ford found fault with the po¬
tatoes. and said he was tired of mac¬
aroni. the bread was dry. the butter
not perfect. As to the pudding:
"My mother.” he said, “always had
mince pie at this season.”
This was the hist straw; and his
wife, unusually sensitive to straws
tonight, could In'iir no more.
"It is a pity you ever left vour
mother,” she said, hitte*lv.
"1 think so too," he responded,
pushing his chair hack.
His wife hesitated a moment
whether to run around the tald»* and
burst into tears upon her husband's
shoulder or to rush upstairs and have
a good cry by baby's aide. She de¬
cided upon the latter course and,
with quivering lip, left the room,
aud shut herself up in the nursery,
where the fire w;u& dying on the
hearth and the baby breathing softly
in strange ccntrw&t to her over
wrought condition.
Well, it was provoking. Women

“You s< . doctor." be said, in his
hoarse voice, “l can’t speak rough to

The doctor sat with bent head,

“I’ll send you a nurse, my man,”
he said, after a pause, rising. "What
you need is good caie.” i'll come

bow to man and wife, now clinging
together, hand in hand, the doctor
said “Good-night," and disappeared.

i>r. Ford dio'e slowly homeward,
Though late, a bright light shone
Irons Ihe parlor window as be stop
peti Tbe gtow of a wood fire i»-
laminated the room as he entered.
But no one came to meet him. His
wife sat in her low rocker fast asleep
The lamp flung a calm radiance over
her bronze-brown hair and delicate
cheek as she slept with her head
drooping against the crimson back
of the c-hair. Her sweet, child-like
expression, with a touch of pathos in
the lips; and he? hands lay loosely
clasped in the Jap of her dainty
gown of softst dove color.
Near the fire stood a white draped
table holding a tempting little re¬
past, carefully arranged, From a
slender glass in the midst hung one
deep red rose. The doctor knew she
had cut it for him from her favorite
plant. Beneath it on a pretty plate
reposed the flakiest, most delectable
looking of pies.
Ur. Ford stooped and kissed his
wife’s fair cheek reverently. She
stirred, then opened her large eyes
slowly.
“Oh! you have come. I am sorry I
was not awake to meet you. But
here’s a mince-pie, dear. I sent over
to your mother for one.”
“Hang the pie!” cried John Ford,
“Elinor, I’m a brute.”
“Oh! no, dear, only a man instead
of an archangel, as I once firmly be
lieved you to be. But never mind.
How do you like my dress?”
“It’s divine; bombazine, I suppose,
You’re an angel, Elinor. But, dear
est, come here and sit by me. I’ve
just been to see a gentleman. I want
to tell you all about it.”
The Campbell Soil Culture System.
Mr. H. W. Campbell, of Sioux City,
Iowa, the editor of Western Soil Cult¬
ure, has introduced, or invented, a
system of soil culture that has taken
his name, and which has been
thought by many to promise an ag¬
ricultural revolution by the economy
thereby effected in the more thor
ough utilization ot any fertilizers
used in crop production. The New
York Sun has recently been discuss
ing it, and from it we secure some
data which indicate that experiments
have been going on in the semi-arid
belt of the Dakotas. The. plan con
sists in packing the subsoils by
means of disk harrows so that the
moisture shall not escape downward,
and in so cultivating the surface that
it shall not escape upward. There is
thus formed a hard subsoil beneath,
with a dust blanket surface, the lat
ter about two inches deep, and the
result is to give the growing crop all
the moisture that falls. Ihe North
ern I’acifie Rrilroad and the Milwau
kee road have promoted experiments
with this system, and all the experi
ments have been reported a.s success
fill.
In other portions of the country
where, the ruiuf; it is nfn .nai, it is
probable that the Campbell system

plements in cotton, corn and cane f
culture during has developed owing wonderfully the j j
_______ recent recent years rears to
Krea , economy thus obtained in so
far a > hand hoe work is concerned,
Close observers, however, have stated
for years that all disk implements
have the effect of packing our Louis
iana lands, the peculiar movement of
the disk wiping the soil upon itself
and thus compacting it. Many of
our sugar planters, and doubtless
others, have therefore preferred to use
horse hoes of the plow variety, and
not of tbe disk variety, using strad
riling tools mounted on wheels with
small shovels or mould-board plows i j
attached. The stirring effect of these
tools is accomplished by lifting the
soil, and not by the sweeping and
wiping motion incident to disk cult
are.
If the cultivators of the semi-arid
districts of Dakota use disk imple¬
ments purposely to compact their
subsoil so that it shall hold water,
the same data should certainly lead
us to avoid disk implements and to
utilize the shovel or turning plow
variety instead.
Crop Conditions.
A press special from Washington
says that returns to the statistical
division of the department of agri
culturefoi October make cotton show
a decline of 3.5 points from the Se>p
tember condition, which was 64.2,
against 60.7 for the present month,
The percentages by states as follow,
Virginia, 59; North Carolina, 64;
South Carolina, 67; Georgia, 67; Flor
ida, 66; Alabama, 61; Mississippi, 60;
Louisiana, 81; Taxas, 57; Arkansas,
53; Tennessee, 69; Missouri, 79.
j The department report as to the 1
! condition < f cotton last month is ful
j j |y sustained by the returns for the
present month. In all states east j
j of the Mississippi river little or no I
j top crop lias been ma|e, and the
, <r0 p will all be gathered by the mid
die of the month .
j Damage is reported front Mttsi&Kfp’:
pi by the frosts 00 Sept. 88 and 29.
Caterpillars and rust are com¬
plained of in the Sea island district
1 of Florida.
tjiight improvement has been made
in some few Louisiana and Arkansas
counties, but the crop will be gath
cred before the close of the month.
There has been a general deteriora
tion also in Texas, ami in some sec¬
tions the crop has been injured by
worms, frosts and heavy rains dur¬
ing the last of September. There will
be a very small yield from the top
crop, and the reports say the crop
will be gathered by Nov. 1.
Experiments With Foods,
Experiments made at the New York
experiment station v how that, making
allowance for the cost of hatching
a, *d growing the pullets used in the
experiments, and considering the
market value of the hens at the end,
the excess of the product over the
cost of the whole grain consumed was
4S.6 per cent. This is near enough to
claim that the excess over the food is
equal to the cost; that is, if the food
cost one dollar the value of the pro¬
duct,after paying for the food,is one
dollar. With those having ground
grain the excess was 08.5 per cent, or
a fraction over two-thirds. In using
Leghorns and Cochins it was found
that the Leghorns made the larger
gain in eggs but the Cochins made a
gain in value of meat product, and
the result showed that ground grain
is cheaper than whole grains, consid¬
ering tlie value of the eggs and meat
from the hens, but it is more labor¬
ious to feed ground grain than to
scatter the whole grains. Ground
grain permits of using a greater va¬
riety of foods, which no doubt was an
important factor in producing the
lnrger grain.
