Governor Joseph Gale who resides in
Eagle Valley, Union county, Oregon, farmed
l6 acres of ground this year, and on that
raised 5000 pounds of beans of different
varieties; 10000 pounds OF onions; about
15 900 pounds of peaches; 1000 pounds of
grain; 600 pounds of tomatoes; $50 bushels
of potatoes, and a vast amount of squsshes.
Every kind glitter and waste matters,

some cattle for feeding on shares, but give
something besides the straw.
Tie most profit from sheep is to raise a
lamb that will sell for more than the mother
is worth. This can easily be done by caring
we'll for the earliest lambs. A lamb 90 days
old and well fattened will often sell for
$40 in the cities and half that in the country
villages. A half-breed Cotswold lamb, fed
with q little mixed oatmeal and bran, and
sucked by native eve, will make an excel
lent market lamb.

Seed Corn.

Il
There is scarcely a doubt that the farmers
of Ohio lost, this year. an average of five
bushels per acrerof their corn crop because
of the imperfect seed planted last spring.
They all know the reason of that imperfec-
ton. The corn IN shocks and CRIBS was
frozen while damp, and thus the germ was
impaired or destroyed. This should prove
lesson not to be forgotten for many years.
Seed corn for next years planting should
be selected now. An old and experienced
farmer says that for upward of 80 years he
has selected his seed corn early In the fail,
and generally before husking time. His rule
is to select large ears from small stalks on
which there are two ears, II practicable. He
selects twics or three times the quantity
which he expects to plant the following
season, in order that he may at planting
time select again from his fall selections
He strips off only the outer shucks, and then
deposits thu corn in dry room or garnet,
where the temperature never falls below 10
or 20 degrees. By pursuing this course he
always has sound corn for planting, and of
the best quality.
Our farmer friends should give this matter
immediate attention.

The audience was very quiet before
the beginning of the last quarter mile,
but when Nine. Anderson appeared IN
the doorway of her dressing-room
waiting for the bell for starting they
seemed to have taken leave of their
senses When she got the word to go,
she started round the track as If her
life depended on the time she should
make. Two men went on Jog-trot
before her to clear the track and two
more followed to keep the crowd from
pressing in after her. During the last
lap the applause was simply a yell, and
it continued until Nine. Anderson had
left the track at the end of the last
quarter, and had gone on the stage to
sit down to rest preparatory to making a
speech. The time of TIE last quarter
was then announced as 2m. 81 the fast

poral Tanner made a short speech while
Nine. Anderson was resting, in which
he said: Honor to Nine. Anderson
for showing the women of Brooklyn
whata woman can do; and honor to the
women of Brooklyn who have so well
supported Nine. Anderson in her task. "
Nine. Anderson gave an amusing de-
scription of her life and varied expert
ences. She said she hoped to return
in year or two and see her Brooklyn
friends again. A banquet will be given
to her on Thursday evening in Mozart

will be made by Gen. Catlin. Nine.

in the Veterinary Reriew, edited by DR.,
Haubner. The animal has been for
twelve years in the possession of its

when only three weeks old. No amount
of noise appears to attract its attention
in the slightest degree. She is ex.
tremely watchful of everything that
goes on around her, and an unusually
acute sense of vision appears to make
amends in some degree for the defects
in other senses. Nothing abnormal
can be found ON examination about the
ears or throat.

Concerning Cinderella's Glass Slipper

1t is curious to learn that the "glass
slipper" in cinderella" of which from
our youth upwards we never questioned
the authenticity, though well aware
that no one who was not orotege of
fairies would think of dancing in such
an article, was not part of the original
story, but has been due to misunder-
standing of word used in the French
version of the tale. The slipper, we
have been told by writer in the Lon
don Sunday Times, supported by Cit
tres Dictionary" was originally slip
per trimmed with particular kind of
rare fur, called in French Vau-the fur
of a creature of the weasel kind But
this fur not being known to ordinary
French story-tellers, they spoke of a
pdntoutie de verre-a glass slipper-by
a sort of unconscious pun. Certainly
the new reading is far more creditable
to the sagacity of Cinderella's godmoth-
er as a purvey or of comfortable clothes;
for whatever magic power the glass
slippers might have had of surviving a
dance, it is impossible that they could
have been comfortable to the feet, and
must have resulted in all probability in
serious corns.

The Last of the Mamelukes.
New York Express.

The Mamelukes, that "splendid bar
barbaric chivalry,' as Sir Walter Scott
called the soldiery which ruled Egypt
for several centuries, were first intro
duced into that country by the Sultan
the thirteenth century. They were
originally, as their name indicates,
"soldiers made of captives," and form
ed the body-guard of that Sultan. Bat
in 1850 they deposed and murdered
him, and put their commander, Ely bek,
on the throne.
A new band of Mamelukes, composed
of Circassians and Georgians, gained
great ascendency in 1882, and made
their commander, Barkok, Sultan
They continued in power until, in 1917.
Egypt became a dependency Of Con-
stantinople. The Turkish Sultan, how
ever, placed the twenty-four provinces
into which he divided Egypt under
Mameluke governors or Beys, each of
whom maintained 500 or 600 followers,
thoroughly armed and equipped. Each
of the Mamelukes was attended by two
armed slaves, who fought on foot
Scott picturesquely describes the
Mamelukes as they appeared when, in
1898, Bonaparte's army, invading Egypt,
first encountered them on the March
from Alexandria to Cairo. "The whole
was covered with Mameukes, mounted
on the finest Arabian horses, and armed
with pistols, carbines and blunderbusses
of the best English workmanship, their
plumed turbans waving IN the air, and
their rich dresses and arms glittering IN
the sun" At the battle of the Pyra-
mids, July q, 1898, the Mamelukes
mustered their full force of 1000 men
under Murad Bey, and attacked the
French with desperate courage, but
were repulsed with terrible slaughter
The $500 who survived fled to Upper
Egypt. Napoleon said of them: "Could
| have united the Mameluke horse to
the French infantry, | would have
reckoned myself master of the world"
After the French were driven from
Egypt by the British, the Mamelukes
partly regained their power, but a civil
war broke out between them and the
Turks, and they were completely crush
ed on the 18th of March, 1911, when
Mehemet Ali beguiled 40 of their
chiefs into the citadel of Cairo, and or
dered his Albanian soldiers to massacre
them. Only one Chief escaped. A gen.
eral massa ere OF the Mameiukes was
soon ordered throughout Egypt, and a
few years afterwards their number was
reduced to 100. These dispersed, and
the Mamelukes rs a distinct body of
soldery ceased to exist. Napoleon had
brought few of them to France, and
they formed under the first empire as q
sort of colony at Marseiiles, where dur
ing the "terreur blanche after Water
100, and on the Goth of June, 1915, n
dozen of them were massacred on the
streets. The "last of the Mameukes"
has been dying every ,ear since in
France, but the very last genuine sur
vivor, Gabriel Ibrahan, has just died III

SAID Prentice: at cannot be that
earth is mans only abiding place. 1t
cannot be that cur life is bubble cast
upon the ocean of eternity, to float a
moment upon its surface, and then so
into hothingness and darkness forever.
Else, why is it that the high and glori-
Gus aspirations which leap like angels
from the temple of our hearts are for
ever wandering abroad, unsatisied?
Why is it that the rainbow and the
cloud come over with beauty that is
not of earth, and then pass off and
leave us to muse on their faded lowell
ness? Why is it that the stars which
hold their festival around the midnight
throne, are set above the grasp of our
limited faculties, forever knocking us
with the runapproachable glory? And
finally, why is it that bright forms of
human beauty are presented to the
view, and then taken from us, leaving
the thousand streams of the affections
to flow back in Alpine torrents upon
our hearts. We are born for higher
destiny than that of earth. There is a
realm where the stars will be spread
out before us like the islands that
slumber on the ocean; and where the
beautiful beings that here pass before
us like visions will stay in our presence
forever
