Professor Gulley, of the Texas Agricul-
tural Experiment Station, says that so far
as he can gather facts from feeding tests,
small amount of fat in the food is of high
value, while large amount may be worth
no more; that the value of fat in the grain
part of ration will be governed more or
less by the fat contained in the hay or the
coarser fodder used with the meal or feed.
This fact shows that it is much more
economical to feed the more concentrated
foods, such as cottonseed meal, corn meal,
etc, with coarser food, as hay or straw.

Dog Agsinst Otter.

An otter with fourteen-inch trout Is
his mouth skipped along the bank of
Spring Run the other day, in plain sight
of Hiram Chase, Spring Brook Penn.
woodsman. The otter was not more
than eight rods from Chase when Chase
got the first glimpse of it, and it had
apparently just come out of the creek
with the plump trout. 1t didn't see
Chase, as it hoped down the stream in
the same direction that he was going,
and the big backwoodsman wished he
had his gun. He had revolver, though,
and he pulled it out and was Just going
to blaze away at the nimble little ami
NAL when his little dog Ned, who had
been tagging him through the woods,
spied the otter and bounded after it.
| Then Chase lowered his revolver and
ran after the yellow dog, to see if he
would dare to tackle the otter, being
ready to shoot the sleek little trout de-
stroyer in case the dog didn't have any
fun with it.
For a wonder, Chase said, Ned didn't
yelp as he usually does when he PAGES
after squirrels or birds, but for all that
the otter heard the dogs footsteps in
time, as it wheeled about with the big
trout still in its mouth, saw in O twink
ling that an enemy was close upon it,
and made break for the bank of the
brook, clinging to the plump fish as it
slid and scampered toward the splash
ing stream. Ned began to bark like
sixty, Chase said, as soon as he saw the
otter face him, and he fairly howled
when the otter tried to get away from
him, but he dashed after the fleeing
little animal, overlook it within three
feet of the creek, and nipped it on one
of its hind legs.
That was more than the spry little
fish-catcher could stand. It made no
further effort to reach tho stream. 1t
dropped the trout, turned upon the cour-
ageous cur in self-defence, bit hi in
the nose, and made him howl different
tune. Ned was game, Chase said, even
though he had been taken by surprise
and wounded in tender spot, and he
sprang for the otter's throat, but didn't
quite reach it. The otter was full of
action when the dog pitched at it, and
it uttered squeak of anger, and settled
its sharp teeth into Ned's nose again,
and the two rolled and tumbled among
the dead leaves and grass for several
seconds before Ned got loose. In the
scuAle he had bitten the otter in the
neck, but his nose troubled him 80
much that he had to rub it with his
paws, and while he was doing that the
otter piled on him once more and COM
pletely cleaned him out. Chase tried to
get him on again, but he had got
onouOh for he rooted in tho leaves
and wouldnt go near the otter.
Then the otter grabbed the trout and
started to trot off with it, but Mr.. Chase
sent bullet that way, and the sly little
fish catcher fell dead at the brook 3 brim
and rolled into a pool with the trout
still between its teeth.

Getting Rich by Small Inventions

|
The New jersey man who hit upon
the idea of attaching rubber erasing
tip to the end of the lead pencil is worth
500, 900.
The miner who invented metal rivet
or eyelet at each end of the mouth of
coat and trowsers pockets, to resist the
strain caused by tn carriage of pieces
of ore and heavy tools, has made more
money from his letters patent than he
would have made had he struck good
vein of gold bearing quartz.
Every one has seen the metal plates
that are used to protect the heels and
soles of rough shoes, but every one
doesn't know that within ten years the
man who hit upon the idea has made
$3.50, 200.
As large sum as was ever obtained
for y invention was enjoyed by the
YanEee who invented the inverted glass
bell to hang over gas jets to protect
ceilings from being blackened by
smoke.
The inventor of the roller skate has
made s., 900, 900, notwithstanding the
fact hat his patent had nearly expired
before the value of it was ascertained
in the craze for roller skating that
spread over the country few years
ago.
The gimlet-pointed screw has pro-
duced more wealth than most silver
mines, and the Connecticut man who
first thought of putting copper tips on
the toes of hildren's shoes is as we'll off
as if he had inherited 81 100000, for
that's the amount his idea has realized
for him in cold, clammy coin.
The common needle threader which
every one has seen for sale, and which
every woman owns, was boon to needle
users. The man who invented it has an
income of $40, OO0a yea from his inven-
ton.
A minister in England made $50, 900
by inventing an odd toy that danced by
winding it with a string.
The man who invented the return
ball, an ord nary wooden ball with
rubber string attached to pull it back,
made 81, OOO, 600 from it.
The person who invented the most re-
cent popular toy, 'tPigs in Clover" will
be rich before the leaves turn this au-
tumn. He was poor last November

Giant Glaciers Of Alaska.

The southwestern face of st. Elias,
is safe to say, will never be climbed; il
presents o mass of broken snow, beauti
full, yet forbidding. We estimated the
summit to be about 1000 feet above us,
making its total height IL, 500 feet. I,
seemed to us that the Coast Survey Civ.
ing it 19, 500 feet was too liberal in its
figures.
The day was cloudless; the whole
scene was one that battles description.
It surpassed in grandeur though not in
picturesqueness the very best that the
Alps can offer. Roughly speaking, the
eve encountered for miles nothing but
snow and ice. I had never before thor
oughly realized the vastness Of the
Alaskan glaciers, though during the
past fortnight we had spent many a
weary hour in crossing immense NOR
aines. One of the glaciers we looked
down upon was not less than sixty miles
long, while another attained breadth
of twenty-five or thirty miles.
From below I had gained the impress
sion that ice covered with debris pre-
dominated over the white ice. 1 now
saw that this was not the case, and that
the ratio of debris to clear ice was prob
ably not greater than that Of one to ten.
Standing at considerable height one
appreciates for the first time the beauti-
fuf curves through which the glaciers
alter their course. We noticed this In
particular in looking down upon the
Agassiz Glacier. It appeared at one
point to describe three or four arcs Of
concentric circles with radii varying
from eight to ten miles, each arc being
indicated by light coating of stones.
the whole resembling an immense race
course. Through the middle of the Tyn-
dali Glacier, and for distance OF sever

ran parallel to each other, presenting
from above the appearance OF o huge
serpent crawling the length OF the

the Heights, and her friends thought she
had wandered to that locality.
