In many important things Virginia farming is different from northern, A certain ease of movement, akind of general amiability, pervades the busi- | ness. One never sees a harness on the plow team. The plow gear is} & very simple affair; collar, hames, | trace-chains, cloth backbands and a rope line on one horse. It js neither poverty nor shiftlessness. Any plow. | this gear will never ular harness—it makes plowing eas-| ier for the horses and the man. And this plow gear is typical of the whole system. ‘The faymhand never liv the house; he and his family heve their log cabi & very com: fortable dwelling—at some distance from the farmhouse, ara rule. In recent years the alert farmer charges rent for the log aouse. 1 know one farmer who has cight families on his place, and his farm is not a large one, Mite explains that he gets seventy or more days of work for each cabin— men who must work for him or move off, and by rents reduces the strain of high wages. He is a native Vin ginian whose father owned slaves and died bankrupt. The son has worked out his problems under the new dispensetion, and is successful. —David H. Wheeler, D.

The Roman court, which phrase in- cludes all those who assist the pope in administering the diocese of Rome, consists of the sacred college of car- dinals, the ecclesjastical tribunals and the legates, vicars and prefects known as apostolics, Only the car- dinals have a voice in electing a pops. This is the procedure: On the morning of the eleventh day after the death of a pope, the car- dinals gather in St. Peter’s, After masa they proceed to the vatican and enter the conclave. From this session a cardinal may not retire, even because of illness, and reclaim his seat. ‘The session is com tipuons, If one leaves he doeg not rev turn, ‘The windows are walled up, the doors leadimg to the conclave are sealed. Strict watch ie kept that ne messages be sent in. Any Christian believer, even a lay- man, may be elected pope. In prac- tice he is always taken from thelist of the cardinals,’ Three cardinals, chosen by lot, act 4a tellers, A large vase, shaped like a chalice, is placed on the altar of the chapel where the cardinals are assem bled. Kach cardinal takes, before de positing hig ballot, this oath;( “I call upon God, who will be my judge, tc witness that T choose the person Whom before (od I judge ought to be elected,” The form of the ballot is: “Ichoose ae vnoes pontiff the Most Rever. end—” 4 A two-thirds vole is necessary to elect.—N, Y, World, seen ESTRAY NOTICE, A black horse, 18 hapds high, 5 j alone, man who has worked a half day with | smile ag he asked: fe back toa reg- | age?” by men, boys and women—has always | Method of Procedure in the College of | added, & meal when he then tol at @ dairy near not long since a lean, unshaven, un+ | couth specimen of backwoods hu- | manity came shuffling in through the door.
