All southern farmers know this per- nicious weed, that creeps into . their pastures and meadows, rooting out tim- othy, rooting out blue-grass, rooting out all useful vegetation, covering the abandoned fields with a. reddish brown and waving in the wind like the grass of a western prairie. They know, too, that animals will starve to death when broom-sedge grows up to their eyes. It seems to have some nutritiogs qual- ities when green and fresh, an in the arid west it is a. common grass on some ranges and is there esteemed, though unworthy even there of the esteem in which it is held, I have no doubt. Of late this weed is creeping north- ward. It has invaded West Virginia. It has crossed the Ohio river and is seen in Ohio and Pennsylvania and doubtless eastward. 3 comes first as a single tuft of yellowish red grass, standing above the other grasses. It has a light, cottony seed and feathery top. The seed blows about and the clumps increase. Sooner or later all the valuable grasses have disappeared and the sedge reigns supreme. Then the field must be plowed, cleaned and rcseeded. It is hard to plow, but doubt— . less is of benefit as a soil builder, at least as a soil fertility arrester. ’ I know of townships that once were excellent grazing countries that are now practically worthless because of having been overspread with this vile weed. Itis especiallydangerous to allow it to get started where the plow cannot, THE BROOM SE'DGE. or should not, go. Handlabor can cope with it only when first it makes its ad: vance. Another matter. Northern men have made sad mistakes in making locations in the south where the land was over— run with broom-sedge which in their inexperience they mistook for grass. Lands have been bought at far more than their real values, live stock has been turned on broom-sedge pastures and been starved, almost before the owners realized the cause of the trouble. One should study this mat- ter well before investing in a farm in _ the south. Of course it may grow on good land; only do not depend on the sedge to support any northern bred an: imals. Dig out and burn the first clump that appears in your neighborhood'and tell your neighbors of the danger. A stitch in time saves more than 900 in such case as this—Joseph E. Wing, in Country Gentleman. USE GOOD PAINT ONLY. It Lengthens the Life and Usefulness of Lumber and the Metal In Farm Implements. It is reckless to permit buildings, yard fences, wagons, machinery and, implements to go without paint. A, well-painted wire or yard fence, or course, looks better than one that is un- But it is not the looks as much as the preservation of the object paint-' ed that is the purpose Of painting. The life of anything that we usually paint is greatly lengthened by an application of a coat of paint. There is usually too, milch l'alse economy where we paint a. building. The average man thinks he; can do it the cheapest. Never was a' greater mistake made. “How can it! be done the best?” should be the in- quiry. Many paints hardly last a year, They crack and blister and by holding the dampness in these cracks, are' worse than no paint. Pure white lead and oil will last seven or eight. years; and if once or twice during that time a coat of oil is applied, the surface will be brightened and the protection in- creased. In the use of good paint some ' one who understands something about painting had better bezemployed. The job will be more neatly and economical— ly done.—Western"Plowman. Manure for Early Potatoes. It is hardly possible to make land too rich where the early crop of potatoes is to be planted. The rich soil insures early growth of the plants, and that they will come up with thick, vigor- ous stalks. which is the unfailing sign of a good crop. Too much manure will cause rot in potatoes late in the season. but with early potatoes the “crop is gen- erally harvested before it has time to either mature or rot. Generally the early potato crop may be got oifin time to plant cabbage for a late crop, and there will be richer soil for the cabbage roots than there was while the potatom- l ware growing.

N1 Warren, oyster planter and dealer of No. 2, Chestnut St., was induced to try Doan’s Kidney Pills, al- most against his will, he never expect- ed the results he Obtained. If the leader is troubled like Mr. Warren, and will but give Dean’s Kidney Pills a trial, he can assuredly depend, upon the same results.- Speaking about it Mr. Warren says: "I have been sub- jected to inclement weather, and it is quite possible that exposure while sup- erintending difierent branches of my business induced kidney troubles. At all events, when consignments are be- ing shipped to Europe, and this is the busiest part of the season. I feel my back troubling me most. I knew I had kidney complaint for a. long’ time, and chancing to see Doan’s Kidney Pills advertised as a kidney remedy, and not a cure all, I had confidence enough in them to getabox at a. drugstore and try them. The first box convinced me that they were just what I needed, so I took another, and I did not require any more after that for my back became well, I prescribed them'for my son, who had a weak back from boyhood. They cured him.” You can obtain incontrovertible proof from Glendening, the druggist, that- DOan’s Kidney Pills do just as repre- sented. Call and see him.

I Louis \Vain, the famous cat. painter, has found out. a. secret. If a woman pos— sesses a cat and the out, after being con- stantly with her, he suddenly removed into a. wider society, the characteristics of its mistress- in her most. intimate life will be developed in the creature, says the Philadelphia Times. If madame be snappy, her pet will scra’tch and swear; if sulky, pussy will follow suit. The test is an unfailing one; Awful are the possibilities which this unsuspecting gentleman has‘lct- loose upon us! NO longer will it be possible to hid-e our secret faults under a. bland or u gushing society demeanor. The man who wishes to test, his fair one need only present her, under semblance of love, with a baleful gift of a Persian kitten; then, direfully hiding his time. wait till that fateful ball of fluff shall have cOme to cat’s estate, when he will . bribe a‘maid to abstract the creature- from the safe retreat of a cushiony boudoir; he will take it to his rooms; he will tease it and feed it on indigesti- ble viands; and then, when the feline lady very naturally shows resentment, he will decide that her mistress has an undesirable temper, and will prompt ly break off his engagement. ' Moral: Leave. puss to the married woman or to the confirmed. old maid. The gay young cligibles should bestow their aiIcctions upon the dog, who is far too generous to tell tales out of school. Character in Lips. The old popular ,notion that thin and delicately formed lips indicate more spirituality and elevation of character than do thick, coarse lips is controvert- ed in the Paris Bulletin of Anthro- pology by Dr. A.“ Bloch, who says he has made a thorough study of the subject of lips from a scientific standpoint. The popular impression, he avers, is based on imagination, and the differ- ences in human lips depend on race dis- ‘finctions, as do the differences in the size and shape of noses.
