TRAILING SKIRTS.

The Nordhausen (Germany) Town
Coucfl has leapt Into sudden notoriety
by passing a municipal by-law prohibi-

Another by-law requires the police to
enforce the prohibition with great strin-
gency, and to arrest all offending wo-
men, who will be punished by flnes not
exceeding $7.50. Repented offences
against the by-law may be punished
with Imprisonment.

CULTIVATING SOY BEANS.
Like the cowpea, the soy bean wants

occupies about the same time In coining

The smaller dwarf varieties will mature

ing, but the Ume required for the larger
sorts is from 120 to 140 days.
Tho uses of the soy bean are some-
what similar to those of the cowpea. It
