It is estimated that a good cover crop plowed, under `will give as much, if not more, er-i 'titanic Matter in the roots, and tops, per acre, than will eight tons of manure. Furttermore, a good legume cover crop is ale re to secure from the air and place tato ?the soil as much nitrogen, to the aearea as will eight ton of manure, or fel.ieeleounds of nitrate a soda. While It W.th ilet be as qvick In action as will' ultra e; nearly all the nitrogen in a cover crop will eventually become available. Successful farmers use cover crops for Vitrereason that both stable manure and hetlifeerado fertilizers are becoming more sc every day and increasing in price.

Station experiments advise the pratice et thorough tillage of the orchard until Jtiey or August, then seeding the orcherd down to some nitrogenous cover ceop, like red mammoth clover, vetch, al-% fulfil. or crimson clover. Rye Is a favor- ite cover crop on tither soils. The Farm- er's Cyclopedia of A.griculture says' in wet years cultivation thould cease earlier in the season In order to give the tres Vierity of time to mature their wood growth before winter sets in. These Cover crops, when plowed under the following soma, add humus to the soileimpreve its mechanical condition and Ineretwe ,its capacity to hold soil moisture. They aleo Protect the ground over winter 'from al- ternate freezing and thawing and Prom ri,eezlng so deeply'. In' addition to the crops Mentioned above, oats, Canaea, field peas and oats, buckwheat, cowtorn turnips, etc., have been found vety satisfactory cover crops for orchards. When red' mammoth or crim.son clover la used 15 to 20 pounds per acre should be !sown; alfalfa, 30 pounds; hairy vetch, 40 to 50 pounde; rye, one *to one and a half bushels; oats, Iwo or two ,and a half bushels; buckwheat, one -halt to three- quarter bushel.

The right hand is the hand tof skill -of artistry -while the left remains that of mere brete strength. Division of labor is an advantage, and hence WO have adopted It. in our evolution. The rea- son why the right hand has been chosen by nature to be developed in this direction is that the left side of the brain, which tontrols it, is some- what better suPplied with blood by the carotids than the right. 13ut, it appear% seience is not Yet ready tO answer the question. Why thiS Ia- . equality in the trarotid arteries? .Animals, it se4ms, are ambidextrous because with them there is no division of labor, or very little of it.

According to them the uniform development of our two hands would contribute to make a .whole parte of the brain, now neglect- ed, an, organ capable of doing the work Of civilization. Now we ha,ve seen that the left hand is not inactive, but does a dif- ferent kind of work from the right. To force our children to be ambidex- trous would be to oppose their natural development, which tends to the di- vision of work. It would be, in the opinion of many, to struggle agatnet the universal law of the least effort and to make them unskilful. Why does a child use his right hand generally for acts of and why have the left-handed always been the exception? DaressY, the Egyptelo. gist, has asserted that the right hand has been employed in eating for a period of over 6,000 years. To explain, this preference manY theories have t-een advanced. Some authorities have, levoked the influence of publio `opinion, whieh, it is atased, thinks liti/e of tha left-handed, regard. lag them an "sitister" and giving them a bad name. This Is to take the effect for the caiuse. It has' also been esserted that a child becomea right-handed because of imitation and educatien, Even the form of the t tensils he uses leaves him no alternatteo. But these causes "'themselves could exist only by virtue of a natural tendency to use the right hand. Some have thought to explain this natural tendency by the mode of growth of the embryo, which at a cer- tain moment turns over so that its left side is eeet the vitellus, hence the prepondrtrant volume of the right side of the body and its superiority. In exceptional eases the embryo tune on the right eide, which givea a Pro* ponderance of strength to the left and consequently causes lert-handedneas. If this theory were correct the sub• ject having a total immersion of the viscera slioald be lefahanded, where- as he is almost always right-handed.
