cattle. Such innovations may appall
many farmers, but what we are drift
ing toward is not more complicated
methods of feeding, but big crops to
feed, better stock to feed it to, and sim
pie rational methods of getting feed to
the animals.

A Curiass Of Human Skin.

St. Mary q la Comte, in New French
Guiana, lately died of diseases con-
tracted at that insalubrious station

Of human skin. A convict had died
whose breast was covered with ex-
tremely beautiful tattooing. The COM
mandant Of the station knew this, and
had the man fayed before he was buried.
For moment it was thought that this
human relic would have been put up
for auction with the officers other
effects, but fortunately, it occurred to
somebody that it was rather too dis
gushing. 1t was known that the
oincer had worn the cuirass several
times when fencing with his comrades,

unpleasant thoughts which for some
time past had constantly Kept him CON-
pany. Try as he would, however, he
could not force his mind into new
channels of thought. The, wrinkles in
his forehead grew deeper and deeper.
Disguised at his failure, he closed his
eyes and went over the events of his
past life again and again, trying to find
some reason why fate had denied him
the happiness he craved. At last,
throwing the book on the table at his
side, he rose and walked restlessly
across the room to a little mahogany
cabinet, and taking out photograph
which was set in neat little pocket
case, he looked at the smiling pictured
lace earnestly and Tong, then, with h
deep sigh, he went to the fireplace
and dropped the treasure into the glow
ing names, muttering as he did so:
1T is better so. Time will not heal
the wound and to keep such reminder
would only aggravate it.
NO. he continued, pacing the room
IN his excitement, Il can not UNDER
stand why fate has dccreed me so little
zeal happiness while it has showered
apon me what men commonly surren-
Ter almost every good thing to obtain!
''Is this the way a man should feel
On the eve of his wedding?se Oh! how
shall / hide my aching heart from my
wife all the years to come? lido not love
aer now, and / know l never SHALL.
The sweet face Of her sister will always
come between us to taunt me with my
foolish love and still more foolish mar
rage. l could not keep her from my
mind even in the presence of my first
wife, how then can hope to do more
with second? o, that / were out of
it about of myself!''
Again his mind reverted to the past.
Five years ago, he thought, / was
married to as good woman as ever
lived; but did not love her, for then
as now l loved Gertrude Maybury with
all my heart and soul. Three years
after our marriage my wife died. l do
not think shegev knew--but what a
living lie! lana now lmmeaSurably
harder it would have been had l not
been convinced that I was doing it to

What evil genius has been shaping

tangled in a second alliance in the very
presence of the woman love and be
utterly unable to win her or to resist
tho influence which is soon to place her

were being carried along by the re-
sistless current of a mighty river SO
swiftly that it is impossible for mo to

destruction staring me in the face.

FAILURES IN DAlRYlNG.
In Order to Avoid Them Raise Cows In
stead OF Buying.

In Order to Avoid Them Raise Cow In
stead OF Buying.
Whatever may be written in favor of
preventing failure in dairying, the
greatest mistake made by dairymen is
that of buying their fresh COWS instead
of raising them on the farm. The dairy
man does not wait as patiently for the
calf to grow as he does for his crops to
mature. and when choice COW be-
comes dry she is sent to the shambles.
and new one, fresh, with calf by
her side, is procured as a substitute.
The yearly introduction of COWS into
the herd from other localities has
brought disease also, although each
animal may have been apparently In
excellent health when purchased. It
is safe to assert that no dairyman has
abortion-in his herd if he has not
bought COWS from other points. Where
the COWS have been raised on the farm
they have been bred from selected
stock. not only for yield of milk and
butter, but also for hardness and free
dom from disease, but when a COW is
brought from another point to be added
to the herd the only quality required
is that she is fresh, and Recently
calved. 1t is we'll known that the most
expert dairyman will fail in his judy
ment of the milk and butter qualities
of COW until he has tested her at the
pail, and there is always more or less
risk of procuring very undesirable
animal.
It requires two or three years to pro-
cure a fresh COW by breeding for her
on the farm, which prompts the dairy
man to buy his COWS, but that it is more
economical to raise them is easily de-
monstrated, provided the stock is grad
ed up to a higher standard of excellence
by the use of thoroughbred males. The
greatest loss of time is during the
period of growth, but after the heifer
comes in she will, in short time, not
only give a quantity of milk and butter
equal to the animal that preceded her,
but will reimburse the dairyman for
the time lost before she became re-
munerative. It is not so much a matter
of feeding, although feeding is impor-
tant. as it is to secure the largest yield
possible, for in dairying an extra quart
per day may turn a loss into profit.
When the thrift of the flock is also
considered the home-bred cows are
always in the majority.
As long as cows are purchased in
stead of being bred no improvement is
possible. 1t is q good average if every
COW, in a herd will yield seven quarts
of milk for every day in the year, and
this average is greatly lessened where
COWS are annually purchased to re-
place those that dry of, but the records
of some of the noted cows of the pure
breeds show that it is impossible to
obtain over forty quarts of milk per
day, while one COW is said to have
produced nearly seven pounds of butter
per day for one week. These facts de-
monstrate that if the dairyman will
grade up his cows their yield Of milk
may be greatly increased, and that
many of the failures in dairying are
due to the omission of the dairyman to
raise his own cows, and to raise them
from his choicest animals. -Philadel-
