The same number contains seven portraits of Tennyson and interesting views of his late home and surroundings. Thos. Gorman has penetrated the mysteries of the silent trappists' monastery with a profane kodak ; Murat • Halstead discusses "Varieties. of American Journalism ;" Herrmann throws "Light on the Black Art" and 'Theodore Roosevelt and Maurice 'Thompson each contribute in- teresting articles. A feature of the number is twenty-four portraits of Parisian journalists, with sketches of their work. A curious bit is found in the, contrast of the double frontispieces which adorn the magazine—on one side the marvelous painting of "The Con- querors," by Fritel, which attracted so tough attention at the last Paris salon, and on the other "The Conquered," by Anton Dietrich; in the one the heroes of war moving down the vista of the centuries in magnificent array between ghastly lines of naked corpses, the other the unfortunate of all times and lands flocking beneath the gentle hand of the loving Chris . The Cosmopolitan' will mark its first edition of 150,090 copies— that for January—by the offer of 1030 free scholarships. In return for intro• ducing the Cosmopolitan into certain neighborhoods the Cosmopolitan offers to any young man or woman free tution, board, lodging and laundry at Yale, Vassar, Harvard, or any of the leading colleges, school's of art, music, medicine, or science.

In order to get -resents snore rapidly and arrive :at 'reliable coneluelena to be Lron$ht before.our nurserymen'Mid fruit,growers, 1 was autliierized tiny, the `1Vfhiiater of Agriculture, yet eefl t , .to eX, amine the eldest orehg1rds of these fruits; which are now found its the western States, those having been planted about twenty years ago. After looking oyer the whole field carefully, the following pendulous have been reached; First, that the northern lignite of apple culture can be materially extended by plant- ing the hardiest of these verities. Second, all fruit -growing districts of Canada may be benefited by adding a judicious selection of the best kinds. Third, that among them are many valuable summer apples, Fourth, experience seems to indicate that among thein are winter apples of fair qual- ity and superior hardiness. Fifth, that in the milder portions of Ontario these winter apples are not of sufficiently good quality to be recommended. It is difficult in many localities to get an unbiased opinion in regard to the Russian apples. Two schools or factions among apple- gruwere have sprung up; one of which main, tains the supremacy of our native fruits, while .the other endorses the Russian apples. Without personal examination it is difficult to get at the actual status of the ease. No doubt, amongst them aro many valuable summer varieties, but owing to unprououncable names, many mistakes and synonyms, the work of selection has been very slow. It is also assumed that there are a few varieties of long -keeping winter apples of good •hardiness, but I do not think they will rate high in quality. In my report for 1892 I have described about thirty of these varieties, and have recom- mended that nurserymen should propagate them, because I think the time has come when these should be disseminated. In this list there are ten summer varieties, six fall varieties and twelve winter varie- ties. ' The following varieties are selected for their hardiness and vigor from those which have been recommended in this report, and are deemed sufficiently promising to bo taken up by nurserymen. • Suinmor. —Yellow Transparent or Thaler, well known ; Breskovka, No. 52, good . quality ; Borovinka, Duchess type, later ; Blushed Colville, a little later -than Yellow Transparent ; Lubsk Reinette, a fine sum- mer apple much prized in Wisconsin. Fall.—White Pigeon, very hardy, first quality; Golden White, large handsome, Zolstoreff, Duchess type, handsome, poor quality ; Switzer, doing well in Quebec and Wisconsin.. Winter.—Ostrokoff (4 M), fine tree, fruit mid -.winter ; Hibernal (378 Dep.), of value as a cooking apple for the extreme north, and a top -grafting stock ; Red Reinette (316), tree fairly hardy, fruit large, hand- some, a good keeper ; Gipsey (1,227 Dep.), tree ;lardy, vigorous, fruit large, good qual- ity ; Arabka (imported by Ellwanger and Barry), tree hardy, fruit of the Blue Pear - main type ; Zusotf (No. 585), grades with Fameuse in hardiness, fruit large, hand- some, fair quality, good keeper.—John Craig, Horticulturist, Experimental Farm. CORN FOR ENSILAGE. Flow to secure a Heavy Yield of this *sati- able Fodder Crop. The value of this crop for producing cheaply a large quantity of palatable food has now become widely recognized. Sweet ensilage is now acknowledged as a valuable ingredient in the ration of cattle, both for milk and flesh production. The convenience in having a large supply of coarse fodder in a small compass renders the silo exceeding- ly useful to the farmer, stock -raiser and dairyman. By i means, food May be pre- served in a succulent condition for use dur- p, the winter months. The following suggestions, based on the results of the experiments of the last three seasons, are offered to those growing this valuable fodder crop : 1. The tillage of the soil should be as thorough as possible, in order to allow the roots to freely penetrate the soil. The plow- ing should be well done. The corn plant is one that readily responds to a rich soil. It will, therefore, be good practice to have it in a good mechanical condition and to give it a liberal application of manure. 2. Plant in drills or in hills. Sowing broadcast should be abandoned, as a great lose of cattle food per acro ensues from this course. The drills should never -be less than three feet apart, and with most varieties as large a yield will be obtained if the distance be three and a -half feet. This plant requires plenty of room to properly develop and mature. It is mistaken econ- omy to sow too thickly ; 18 lbs. to 20 lbs. of seed per acre will give the beet results. Essentials for rapid and generous growth are sunlight and air. When the rows are too close or too thickly seeded the plants are stunted and undeveloped, and'the crop is not as suitable for preservation. It should he remembered that it is by the agency of sunlight that the leaves are able to appropriate the carbonic acid of the air— the source of all the carbonaceous food material formed in the plant. 3. Only varieties should be sown that yield a heavy crop and come to the glazing condition of growth before there is danger of damage by frost. Pearce's Prolific, Long- fellow and Thoroughbred White Flint are excellent for many localities. There are, however, other sorts which yield good re- sults. Care should he taken to ascertain before purchasing seed if the 'variety is a heavy cropper and will come to maturity in the climate of the grower. 4. Begin cultivating early and keep the crop free from weeds. As the plants grow, restrict the cultivation more and more to the center of the rows, otherwise there is a danger of cutting the principal roots which feed the plant. 5. Harvesting should be commenced when lithe kernel begins to glaze. The stalks at this time are beginning to turn yellow near the ground. If allowed to remain standing after this period the digestibility of the 'fodder may be impaired. If intended for the silo, and the weather permits, it should be left to wilt for two or three days after cutting. Sweeter ensilage results as a rule by this method than by at once drawing in and filling the silo.—Frank T. Shutt, Chief Chemist, Dom. Exp. Fume. Lice on Cattle. Government property has no greater im- munity from the attacks of parasites than that of private individuals, and during the winter of 1890-91 some of the cattle became infested with lice. That fact is mentioned for theurpose of stating that a most effec- tive, safe and simple treatment can be given by applying a kerosene emulsion.

' THE RUSSIAN CZAR'S GREAT ARMY. He CuaPut Many Siore Sion Into the Field than Elthor Gernnauy or `menta. In spite of financial difficulties and peace- ful intention the,RussianGovernmentspares neither pains nor money in its efforts to keep the army on a level with those of France and dermany, or rather to outdo them ; and the results—so far as they can be verified in times of peace—are ip the highestdegree reassuring. As far as mere numbers go the Russian War Minister can put about half a million More armed men in the ffeld than Germany or France. The lat. ter country can reckon on 4,053,000, while Russia has 4,550,000. Considering the question from the financial point of view one cannot help wondering how it coulee that an empire• whose finances are so disorganized and for the needs of whose famine.stricken population contributions were solicited this year and last year in foreign countries, is in a position to spend more money on its army every year than such a fairly prosperous State as Austria- Hungary. And yet this is the fact. Austria -Hungary's finances are in so sat- isfactory a state that the forced paper cir- culation is now making place' for a metellic currency on a gold basis, and government credit is such that the 4 per cent, loans are being converted without the slightest diffi- culty. And yet Austria-Hungary, in spite of exceptional conditions which would certainly warrant and actually seem to gall for increased military expenditure, lays out a considerably sinaller-annual sum on her army than poverty-stricken Russia, whom no European State would ever dream of at- tacking. Foreigners in general have no adequate conception of the changes whioh, in the course of a few years, have contributed to metamorphose and regenerate the Russian army. The process may be truthfully de- scribed as a new birth. Formerly marvel- lous°powers of endurance and a courage which knew no fear of death were the main characteristics of the Russian soldier, who, when abandoned to himself, had no more initiative than a log of wood. At present he is carefully taught, trained, and drilled knows as much about military technical matters as the average European soldier can assimilate, and still cultivates the old qualities which alone would give him a vast superiority over some of the most highly - eulogized troops of at least one great power. Then as to numbers. A few years ago the infantry consisted of twelve regiments of the guard, sixteen regiments of grenadiers, and 165 regiments of the line. Gen. Vannoffsky, the enterprising War Minister, has within a comparatively short time added seventy-four reserve cadre battalions, which are to serve as the nucleus round which as manyreserve regiments of two battalions each are to be formed. As a matter of fact this has already been done with twenty-three of the reserve battalions. It is still being continued, and a few days ago a ukase was published ordering the formation of four more reserve regiments of two battalions each. The words "two battaliona each" have a somewhat mild sound to the ears of military men who know that the ordinary Russian infantry regiment consist of four bat- talions ; but the sound is delusive and' misleading, for these reserve regiments contain each 1,555 common soldiers and forty officers, so that they are, practically equal in numbers to the regiments of four battalions (the latter possessing 340 men more, in ethera words, 1,895 instead of 1,555), a difference which, in case of need, could be made good without the slightest difficulty. These facts should be continual- ly borne in mind by those who accuse Ger- many and Austria-Hungary of taking the initiative in imposing unbearable burdens on the tax -paying populations. Russia, whom no other power would or could attack, and who can scarcely pay her way, is actually compelling her neighbore to equalize their chances against her in war. Still at It. "I'd like to have you tell me, if you can," observed theexchangeeditor glancing rather slightingly over his shoulder, "what is the difference between a $50 diamond and a custard pie ?" "I don't see anything hard about that," answered the financial editor with scorn, "One is simon pure and the other is pie, man, sure." "No," rejoined the other. "That won't do. That's simply horrible." "Then it's because one is charcoal made over, and the other is made over a char- coal—" "That's worse yet 1" "You needn't get crusty about it !" "Why not?" exclaimed the exchange man bristling up. "Because," retorted the man of finance, eoming up gamely, "custard pie isn't." "It is, though—at bottom." "I call that a pretty low-down--" "You talk like a half-baked--" "Stop ! You stick to your paste-ry 1" "That's what I'm doing. What is the difference between a $50 diamond and a custard pie?"

"Naw 1" • "One is something in soak and—and the other is always soaked when you get down to hard -pan." "That isn't so bad," said the exchange editor, reflectively, "but it doesn't go. You haven't got it•yet." "Well, what is the difference?" demand- ed the financial editor, wheeling his chair round and glaring at him. "The difference," said the man of ex- changes, in a cold, hard tone of voice, "is $49.75." And they don't ,y-ak now.—Chicago Tribune. First Blood of the War.

"Well, I'll' see all about that," and John went home making the atmosphere feel blue: About four hours later Bill came aver to John's house and yelled : "You, John Smith." "Well I" yelled back John.

' "Well, that cow hooked me." "Oh, she did?" • `"Yes." ,.Well ?" "I'm thinking about suing you for dam- ages:" "Oh, are you?" "Yes, but I'm willing to compromise." "Ah !" "Yes, you give me $50 and your half of that cow •and 1 won't say anything about it." • After six hours of talk John paid the money and the old man went away happy. Entirely in the Company's Hands. It was just after the first sickening crash of the collision, and the air was filled with shrieks and groans, mingled with the hiss of escaping steam. ' The dark, sinister man with the smooth face lay 'motionless where the shock had thrown hien. Around him were scattered broken timbers and twisted iron rods, but by a seeming miracle the debris had not fallen upon him and his limbs were free. • "He's dead," sadly whispered the rescuer who saw him first. The -lips of the dark, sinister man moved. "Not by a jugful," he observed audibly. The rescuer hastened forward. 'tAre you hurt?" he anxiously inquired "Nope." The dark man was positive. -"Not a scratch," he observed. The rescuer was unable to repress an ex- clamation of surprise. "Well, why don't you get out of the wreck ?" The sinister man gazed at the twinkling stars above him. "I just about know my business," he calmly replied. "I've been in collisions before. I'll stay right here where they threw me until I'm moved. Then per- haps— A faint smile played about his lips. "The company can't work the contri- butory negligence racket on me when I sue for damages. Oh, no, I don't object to your carrying me away if you like, but I call on you to witness that I take no active port in the process myself. I know my business."
