The Prairie Chicken,

The prairie chicken is the leading
game bird inhabiting this region. 1t is
somewhat larger than the ordinary do
nestle hen found scratching in the gar
den, and flies faster when you are
shooting at it. 1t seems to have ac-
CURED the fly habit in youth, ana it
bangs on. After hunter has shot So
worth of ammunition into the limitless
void from whence the prairie chicken
flew he is seldom adverse TO stating,
for publication if necessary, that in his
opinion its fly education has been far
from neglected.
During this season of the year the
prairie chicken is engaged in looking
the ground over and chanting its low,
captivating melody before breakfast.
AS soon as the weather viii permit, the
hen will withdraw from the whirl of So
cial life and lay seventeen ashes-of-gum
shoe colored eggs in nest In the
grass. Seldom waiting to be asked,
she then takes her seat, and for the
space OF three almanac weeks seems to
be lost i'll meditation.
Probably one of the most pleasing
sights in nature is a female prairie hen
thus buried in thought and specializing
as to how she will probably feel after
waiting three weeks for breakfast
At the end of that time seventeen
Young pra RE chickens come out of the
shells and commence TO fly, while the
hen gives up her sedentary life and
swallows young and inexperienced
grasshopper.
August ID the local paper announces
in its first editorial that "prairie chick
ems are now ripe" This means that
the minions of the law will not talk
about arresting you if you shoot one on
or after that date. The prairie chicken
is now much wilder than it was before
AS soon as the $50 bird dog sits down
violently on the short and stunted rose
bush the chicken flies up. The ex-
perienced hunter at this point shoots
and brings down the bird The one
who isn't quite so heavily charged with
experience blazes away and kills the
dog. Also he frequently arranges to
have his gun explode and blow off three
of his fingers.
Prairie chicken properly cooked is
much sought after 10y the epicure.
Also Nv Tue Hldu WnO Is pretty buuuUeT-
ing hungry. As a humble represen-
tative of the latter class, we have fire.
quently overpowered large and salts
factory quantities of cooked prairie hen
with the best results.
The thoughtful student of current
events has probably noticed that this is
far from perfect life. There are draw
backs even to prairie chicken mastica-
ton. There is the birdshot which it
brings onto the table concealed about
its person. When coming down onto a
piece of prairie chicken spare-rb with
both feet, fguratively speaking, it is
uncomfortable to have a shot shove a
tooth into your iawbone about an inch
and half. After protracted engage
ment with roast prairie chicken sea-
soned with No. shot we have had our
teeth become so overloaded with lead
that our under jaw has hung down like
an old boot sole ripped off clear back
to the heel.-Esteliine Oak. Bell.

MAKING PLATE GLASS.
Results Obtained by Using Natural Gas
How the Glass Is Made.


How the Glass Is Made.
From the Cincinnati SUM-
@There is plate of glass 66x5f
inches, which is the largest size made
IN this country" remarked prominent
glass merchant OF this city, as he was
engaged in experimenting the unpack.
ing of large box.
1T was made in Pittsburgh manu-
factory, with natural gas as fuel, and is
much superior to that made by coal,
since the sulphur, even in the best and
purest coal, blurs and coats the glass
with patches, while if smoke comes in
contact with it in the soft state per-
manent stain Is caused. Beside, when
coal fuel is used, the best of care can
not prevent ashes, dust, and solid par
ticles from the furnace falling onto the
molten glass and making flaws.
"Gas fuel, however, has changed all
of that, and has given Pittsburgh a
great advantage, and glass can be made
so much better and cheaper there that
all of the factories have found them
selves forced to go to Pittsburgh or go
to pieces In short time America
can compete with French and German
plate glass, where manufactured gas is
used"
How is this gas made?"
well, the hardest and most inter-
esting part is the blowing" was the
reply. "The entire mass OF molten ma
terial must be blown into shape by the
breath. Messrs. Appert, of Clichy,
France, claim to have discovered a
process that will make glass-blowing by
the mouth unnecessary, and it is to be
hoped that they have, as the process is
very painful, and the men after few
years become palefaced, with their
cheeks hanging limp in folds, and some
cases have been known where their
cheeks have worn so thin that they
actually cracked"
What are the materials used to make
the CLASP"
"One hundred parts of sand, thirty
parts of lime, forty parts of alkali, and
some pulverized charcoal are put in the
fire-brick pot, which is set in furnace
heated to an intense heat by gas and
are brought to a molten state. A work
man then plunges long wrought-iron
tube with wooden handle and mouth
piece into the white-hot mass, and by
alternately cooling and rolling it finally
has a ball of glass many pounds in
weight adhering to the end. He turns
it about until it becomes pear-shaped,
and then hands it to the blower, who
bl ows gently into it, at the same time
constantly turning it until it becomes
the shape of huge bottle. 1t takes
very strong man to do this, since for a
plate of this size the molten material
will weigh thirty pounds.
After it has been blown into the
right shape, the speaker went on, "the
end of the pipe is closed up, and the
air, expanded by the heat, breaks a
small hole in the end of the bottle,
which the blower enlarges by twisting
his tube around and putting his breath
into it until at length the bottle be-
comes a cylinder. A string of red-hot
glass drawn over the upper part of the
cylinder breaks it Off evenly and it is
then cracked open lengthwise by red.
hot iron. Each side is heated, fiattened
out, tempered and polished, and final
ly becomes great sheet of clear plate
