A Beavers PROTEST.
How tho Animal Warns Its Mates Of the

How the Animal Warns Its Mates OF the
Approach of Enemies.
Until the fall SHOWS carpet the
ground and render ''still-hunting'
practicable it is not uncommon for
hunters to patrol the water-courses
at night in the hope of surprising
some one of the deer tribe in or near
the water. He who is to do the shoot
ing sits in the bow, while the stern is
occupied by the paddler. who impels
the canoe in a manner that is Abso-
lutely noiseless The many sounds
which at night characterize the woods
on the confines of civilization are
wanting in the forests of the wilder
ness. In the absence of wind the
silence is that of death itself-like
the Egyptian darkness, it seems as
though it could actually be felt And
SO the canoe steals slowly on. as silent
as the shadow of a cloud, its occu-
pants, their nerves at the highest ten
sion. straining their ears to detect at
the earliest possible moment the pres
ence of the game they seek. Sudden
~, without the slightest warning, the
death-like silence is broken by q
sound, as though the guardian angel
Of the deer tribe had hurled a stone
about two feet in diameter into the
water in the immediate vicinity of the
canoe. It is the protest of the beaver
against the invasion of its domain.
I had heard this sound many times,
and its cause had been explained to
me as often. Still, though long ex-
perience had taught me implicit con
fidence in my companion and mentor,
I could yield him in this but half
hearted faith. 1t seemed incredible
that an animal less than three feet long
could make noise the size of q two
story house. But one moonlight night
we stole on q beaver swimming in q
narrow stream. Not till the stem of
the canoe was within five feet of it
did it detect our presence. Then
down went its head, and, rounding up
its back, it struck violent blow upon
tho water with its tail and vanished.

enrich the hilltops of the farmer, and
bless his table with the best of meat.
Those who have flocks of pure Merinos
should still keep their best blood and
sell where they can; but do not be
dazed or crazed with the expectation
of high prices. Do not sacrifice your
flocks. but cut them down to the best.
We should eat more lamb and mutton,
and it may be great blessing that it
is necessary to push this side Of the

in the rearing of better mutton.

in the front, and the consumer sees
little else, unless in the time OF sau-
sages, when pigs divide the space. but

really be grown cheaper than any other
meat, as the fleece will go far to make
up the cost of raising. No animal will
grow faster in proportion to the food

A FARM CONVENIENCE.

! The Many Uses to Which Son Steel Gal.
vanixed Wire Can He Put
Soft steel galvanized wire, such as
is used for cheap telephones. Is won
derfully useful about the house or tho
farm. With good pair of pliers. It
can be used almost like string. When
this can not be had, common copper
wire will answer just as well, but is q
trifle more expensive and not a.
strong. In the absence of these the
soft iron wire used by stove men for
putting up stove pipe will answer.
The latter, however, Is rather large.
Having either of these soft wires we
may sew q button upon stiff cloth,
fasten the ear of a tin pail in place. or
bind q volume Of periodicals. With
the copper wire leather can be fas-
tened in many places, as for example
about a harness where ordinary waxed
ends will fail. For training plants
against the house wire is far bet
ter than string. For this purpose
copper is first, the galvanized second.
and plain iron wire last Old fence
wire may be worked in for this pur-
pose. In the garden two or three
strands Of it can be made partly, II
not entirely, to take the place of

is wanted at each end Of the row.
Tomatoes can be supported by . pair

before the vines begin to spread at the

fastened to the wires 90 that the plant
