more latitude than usual. A spec

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD
Choosing Farm Land.

In choosing land for agricultural pur-
poses it is very unsafe for the farmer to
be guided by any loose notions OF the
geological features of the locality. Geol-
ogy in this respect and for this use is
one of those things of which a little
knowledge is dangerous. There are a
few places where the everything soil has
been derived from the breaking down of
the underlying and o%utcropping rocks,
and these can only be detected by an
expert geologist and minera!ogist. Gen.
rally the soil is made up of drifted ma
terials which have been brought from
distant places by the force of great
floods of water or vast bodies of ice, and
have been spread over the surface and
again moved back and forth in much
the same manner, but to a much smaller
extent, as we see them now. It is only
where the rocks lie near the surface and
in the most ancient geological forma'
lions, as in Northern Michigan, Eastern
Canada, and all along the Allegheny
ranges, as far south as Alabama, that
this primitive condition of the soil ex-
lists. Elsewhere the character of the
rocks of the neighborhool cannot be
safely taken as a guide to the nature Of
the soil.-Mw York Times.

Attacked by 4 Deer.

A strange and what threatened to be
cutie a serious incident occurred recently
in Gunnison, Col. AS Mrs. Robert Har'
IT'S and Mrs. E. w. Eastman were taking
q walk near the western edge of the
town, with baby carriage containing an
infant and a child three or four years old,
they encountered a pet deer which i'm
mediately showed a disposition to fight.
The mother grabbed her child from the
carriage just as the deer fastened his
horns in the wheels aud sent the vehicle
over his head. Rushing upon the woman
with the infant he gave them a similar
toss, landing them in the brush near the
roadside considerably bruised. While
the other woman was ~endeavoring to
avoid his sharp horns a young man
rushed to her rescue with a dog, but the
angry beast settled the dog with one
thrust, and then he sprang upon the
young man, who fired two Intellectual
shots from his revolver, which only
seemed to increase the deer's anger. He
sprang upon the man and thrust n of
his antlcrs through his thigh, infictlng
an ugly wound. Then, as he stood over
his PROSTATE victim, a second man, who
had been attracted to the scene, killed
the animal with a double barrelled shot

killing Sheep

A shcep improves in flavor with age,
and they arc never too old as long
as they are healthy and fat. In fact,
they must be two years old or more be-
fore they make what is called "red NUT
ton," that is, mutton which when
cooked done has red gravy. 1t is best
before killing to let the sheep remain
twelve hours without food, having plenty
of water. Then, everything being ready
cut the sleeps throat close to the jaw
and head to the bone, inserting the
knife into the spinal column of the neck
to insure quick death. The hind quar-
tiers sho"ld then be skinned, as they are
easily reached; a g~amnonstick is then
inserted in the sinews at the hook when
the sheep is suspended and the skinniug
completed. Next the intestines should
be quickly taken out, which prevents the
wool taste so often mentioned by haters
of mutton. This taste comes from an
infusion of the eXcretion into the circu-
lation after the vital powers no longer
prevent it, as the sheep has the longest
intestines OF ruminants. In killing
game, experts always take out the intes-
tines at once for the same reason. The
carcass of mutton may then be wrapped
in the woolly side of the sheepskin
without harm, as experiment will show.
The sheep may be hung up at once by
Irvine around the hooks and the Cannon
stick, and the same operations gone
through, but the first process is the best.
