from the Boston Globe.l
A Nevada correspondent will have to
answer for this story of SNOWFALL boom.
erang: Two miners living OH Alum
Greek went up the mountain above their
cabin last week to get some stakes. At
ter their work was done one of them
made SNOWFALL and threw it at the 9TH
sr, who returned the fire. One of the
balls lodged on slope more than mile
long directly above their cabin. The
sun was shining brightly and the snow
was soft. For second the ball rested
where it fell, and then it began to roll.
increasing IN bulk as it went. Presently
the ball once held in mans hand, grew
to the size OF hogshead, ana when q
furious momentum had been gained il
burst into several pieces, each of which
continued rolling until strip of ground
100 feet wide was cleared of the snow.
In their descent these huge snowballs
picked up rocks and earth until, merg-
ing IN one immense mass, the avalanche,
bearing down giant trees and stumps,
struck the cabin of the men who started
it and carried it away as easily as if it
had bsen made of paper. Everything
in the path OF the slide was swept to the
bed of the stream and buried fifty feet
deep in the snow. The miners watched
the havoc they had wrought, and, after
examining the spot where once their
cabin stood, they started for Hawthorne
for tent and blankets.
The same writer says that the sides of
the mountains have been stripped al
most bare by avalanches. In the Little
Cottonwood the slides have carried
away the works around the mines and
demolished nine or ten miles of snow
sheds over the tramway. There has
been perfect stampede from Alta, the
only people remaining having placed
themselves cut of the reach of slides. In
the Big Cottonwood they have had ava
larches six miles in length, and the
creek Is completely blockaded. In the
South Fork every foot of the mountain
has been swept by avalanches, and the
stream is buried in some places under
200 feet of snow.

"Takin' Her In"
from the New York Herald I

From the New York Herald
The squeaking of a wheelbarrow was
heard in New Church Street at 9 o'clock
few nights ago. As the barrow neared
the lights of the Church Street Station
it was seen to be propelled by four very
small boys, two of whom were struggling
with each handle. In the barrow lay
the limp form of rather well-dressed
old woman, in the last stages of intoxica-
ton. Half dozen other very small
boys walked by the side of the barrow
and prevented the woman from falling
out. A little girl, carrying a baby al
most as big as herself, brought up the
rear of the group. All the children we're
very small.
There was no cheering or noise as the
triumphal procession progressed. Every
thing was quiet and conducted in an
orderly and remarkably business like
manner.
When the steps of the station were
reached the barrow was stopped and
carefully tipped over and the woman
deposited on the lower step. Then she
was rolled up ON to the stone platform,
and all but two little boys went away.
One OF these stood guard over the woman
while the other timidly knocked at the
station door. It was at last opened by a
gigantic officer, who stared in an aston
ished sort of way into the darkness a
yard over the boys heads, while his
brass buttons glistened in the light
Then he happened TO look down and
saw the two children and the PROSTATE
woman. With the assistance of the
boys the officer lifted the womab, took
her inside, where she gave her name
as Mary Welsh, of Rector Street, and
was locked up. The little boys then
went quietly away.
A man who had watched the strange
scene, overlook the boy with the barrow
and asked:

seriousness; "but was takin' her in.

variety OF Cheese Product.

1t is noticeable fact that with ell the
American love for doing things different
ly from others, with all the American
inventive skill, the great mass of the
cheese made In this country is much
alike. Some is much better than others.
but most is made after one model. This
is not nearly go true OF the cheese made
In European countries. There an almost
endless variety is to be variety in
size, shape, color, taste and smell. Some
of the European cheese is exceedingly
dlstasteful to American palates and nos
trils, but all meet want. The total
consumption is the greater because Of
this attempt to meet the fancies of many
classes of consumers. Many of these
classes are largely represented in this
country, and we have not forgotten their
old tastes. We often lament the fact
that the cheese consumption in this
country is small compared with the pop
ulation; yet little successful effort has
been made to increase it by adapting
the product to the tastes of these large
classes of foreigners
There are practical difficulties in the
way. Small cheese, and those of pecul-
lar size or flavor, usually cost somewhat
more labor In the making, but often they
can be sold at prices considerably above
those current for standard cheese. At
the first dairy convention we attended,
the desirability of having cheese made
of such size that they could be sold for
family use without cutting, was pre-
sented. Yet little advance has been
made in introducing such cheese. The
arguments in their favor are as strong
as ever, and we do not believe it i'm
practicable to secure satisfactory trade
in them.
Some of the English and continental
styles If cheese are much liked by many
Americans, and we do not see why they
may not be successfully manufactured
In this country on a larger scale than has
yet been done. Whatever helps so to
increase the consumption of cheese, es-
pecially of cheese of good quality, will
be of direct service to the dairy interest.
1t is not proposed that the foreign de.

Special Virtues of Celery.

In celery there must be some special
virtue, if we only knew what it is.
Nothing is made in vain, and the pow

celery are limitations from nature that

rheumatism becomes impossible if Gel

Unfortunately he says cooked celery.

and eat with potatoes. '.Permit me to
say" he adds, "that cold or damp never
produce rheumatism, but simply develop
it. The acid blood is the primary cause
and the sustaining power of the evil.
While the blood is alkaline there can be
no rheumatism, and equally no govt,

Improving "A Permanent Sod.

/ have seen many articles on the sub
lect of permanent sod for meadows and
pasture iands-and. while 1 have never
heard OF any practical solution of the
subject, was, several years since, set
to thinking that if such thing could be
accomplished the process would be valu-
able to all agricultural interests, espe-
cially to ralsers of grass in any form,
whether for meadow or pasture.
Since that time L have been expert
menting with crude machine, of the
plan for which I made a drawing. and
got the work done by wagon maker
and blacksmith. The object of this
machine is to open and loosen the soil
when it has become hard and tight.

ing been disturbed. | manure the land

Since my experiments have been so
satisfactory / have made more perfect
implement, with which, by the use of
one man and team, / have at intervals
during the past month put in admirable
condition about seventy-fve acres of
meadow, going over it both ways, for
each day of steady work. l have often
practiced and know that others have
used the simple process of scarifying
the surface of meadows, but beyond that
l have never heard of any special pro.
cess for meadow cultivation until by my
own experiments this method has been
developed. If You, or any of your read
ers, have had any experience in this line,
l should be glad to hear of it and the
results. Country Gentleman.

Fowls Must have Green Stuff.
