Repairing Ocean Cables

Repairing is the most difficult and
thankless part of an ocean cable engi-
neer's work. Landing shore ends and lay
ing out are mere pastimcs compared with
repairing in deep water. There is a con-
siderable element of luck in it, too.
Sometimes the cable is hooked at the first
drag, and at others weary weeks arc
spent in dragging to and fro over the line
of the cable without ever getting bite,
The modus operandi is to lower Crap
mel over the bow, the graphing rope
being passed under the dynamometer and
taken to the picking-up drum. The ship
then steams slowly across the line of the
cable, dragging the grapncl along the
ground. If the bottom is soft the cable
may soon be hooked, and the steady rise
of the strain on the rope shown by tho
dynamometer indicates the fact. If the
ground is rocky and uneven the grapnel
may jump over the cable fifty times with,
out even touching it. The long delays
incident to repairing expeditions some
times renders repairs immensely expen-
sive, and the expense is often increased
when the broken ends have drifted apart,
or much of the cable is damaged, and a
length of new cable has to be laid. Some
repairs to one of the Atlantic cables not
many years ago cost over S400, 600. There
are now in operation 120, ,070 miles of
nautical cable and cable fleet of thirty
six vessels. Times Democrat.

PRUNING DUNG TREES.

Pruning young trees is a saving of fu-
ture labor and prevents waste Of ma
terial for their growth. 1t is useless and
wasteful to grow wood that must be cut
away afterward. To prune the tree to a
handsome form is precisely what is best
for the good of it. A we'll balanced head
with limbs and bearing wood equally
distributed in the form of a deep bowl
is the right shape for a fruit tree, as it
admits the sunlight all through the
branches and permits the air to circulate
among the leaves. When stinted of light
and air the leaves do not make a healthy
growth, and healthy leaves are indispen-
sable for healthy trees. When tree is
to be pruned the operator should first
study it well and compare its appearance
with that which he would desire. Never
use knife until the plan for each tree is
laid out. This branch must remain, but
that is not required; it is in the way or is
wrongly directed. And so when dis
tinct idea of what is to be done is formed
in the mind, then the pruning shears or
fine saw may go to work, and the wounds
trimmed smoothly with a sharp knife or
chisel. No limbs or branches should
cross; every branch should spread as a
fan, and the centre should be kept open.

acquire skill in handling sheep; others
are poison to the race. Grain producing
farms grow poorer every year; sheep
farms increase in fertility. The sheep
crop suffers less by drought than any
other, animal or vegetable. Breeding
for the most wool TO light carcases is
poor policy-there is no reason for sacri-
ficing fleece qualities in carcass improve
ments. One cross upon pure Merino
ewes by compact bodied, close wooled
rams is usually of advantage, but cross
upon cross will deteriorste the flock. A
good constitution combined with mutton
and wool qualities makes the perfect
sheep. The breed that can give best re-
turn for care and feed is the proper breed
to keep, and experience proves the
Merino to be the winner in the race for
money. The foot disease does not orig
mate on high, dry ground, and animals
affected with it recover spontaneously
when removed from low to high land.
Sheep moved from the limestone soil of
the North TO the sands of the South gen
orally "die acclimating." Northern
crosses upon the natives is the only way
to secure desirable flocks there. Some
Hockmasters in Western county have
adopted heroic treatment of sheep p-kllling
dogs. They feed their sheep pieces of
beefsteak sprinkled with solution of
strychnine, and what the sheep leave the
dogs consume, 'and nobody's to blame"
Horns on sheep are in the way all the
time. Fewer can be corraled or folded
in the same space, or feed at the same
time; they gouge each others eyes, and
a punch in the abdomen often causes
abortion in ewes. Horns are terror to
the shearer, and valuable feed is consumed
to produce the worse than useless appen-
dages. Horns on lambs are prevented by
excising "the buttons" as with calves,
but the humane way is to breed the
horns off. There will he muley ram
lambs among most horned breeds, and by
the use of such Western shepherd had
last season 500 muley ram-lambs out of
500, and he expects to succeed in breed
ing off all horns and establishing polled
Merino breed.-Nep York Tribune.

LEAcHED ASHES.

It is common to consider leached ashes
of little or no value as fertilizers from
the fact that the potash has been alb
stracted, and therefore their use at the
best can only be for their mechanical
effect on stiff and hard soils, and thus
many persons neglect to haul then out on
cultivated lands at all. While it is true
that nearly all the potash has been taken
out, the lime and the phosphoric acid
still remain, and as ashes contain more
lime than potash, it often occurs that
leached ashes will on certain soils produce
beneficial effects almost as marked as
those of unleeched ashes on another field
This arises from the fact that the soil
on the field on which they were used al
ready contained sufficient potash, but
was deficient in lime and phosphoric
acid. .-New York World.

STORY Of a Greenback.

In 1864, when Confederate camp was
located on Marietta street, an incident
occurredwhich, with its sequel, makes an
Interesting reminiscence of the dave
when the old Atlanta was more of a sol.
dier's barricks than city. The camp to
which allude, writes contributor to
the Atlanta Constitution, was good way
out on Marietta, and the site is now oc-
cupied with number of new dwelling
houses. DIR. Roy, of this city, was one of
the physicians at the camp.
The late Captain Al phonse Hurtel, Of
the Twenty Alabama, had been
placed in temporary charge of the prison,
and one day a Federal prisoner gave to
him 500 greenback bill to keep, fear
ing theft on the part of other prisoners
Shortly afterward the prisoner escaped.
Captain Hurtel sent the money to his wife
in Mobile, Ala, telling her to keep it,
and if he did not send for it, and the
Confederacy fell, to use it. When Mobile
surrendered that 800 was God-send to
one of the many impoverished families of
the Gulf City.
And now the strange sequel Ten
years after the close of the war, one
day while Captain Hurtel was sitting in
his ofice,a poor and ragged sailor walked
in aud asked:
''ls this Captain Hurtel2"
After quick glance at the mans feat
ures Captain Hurtel answered; "Yes,
and you are the soldier who gave me the
800 bill in Atlanta, Ga, during the
war;"
eyes, sir, am, v the sailor replied, as
the tears rolled down his cheeks" and if
you will give me just S. of it now l will
be thankful"
A check for 500 was given him, and
the man fell on his knees and wept like
child. Once again had the same money
proven God-send in an hour of bitter
need

"woLF TEETH IN COLTS.

The so-called "wolf teeth in colts
are merely superduous teeth and harmless.
They are small teeth situated directly in
front of the upper and sometimes lower
grinders, and are shed as the new and
permanent teeth come in. While colts
are cutting their teeth there is often more
or less Inflammation which affects the
eyes, and those who do not know the
real cause are very likely to attribute it to
the presence Of the small, superiuous
teeth, which will drop out if left alone,
or they may be pulled out without in
jury or great inconvenience to the colt.
If they are broken of in attempting to
extract them the stumps may cause con-
siderable irritation to the gums. Wild
horses seem to get along as well, or even
better than the domesticated, and the
colts are never known to be injured by
''wolf teeth" If the eyes of your colt
become sore, put him in rather dark
stable and wash his eyes two or three
times day in warm water if the weather
is cool, or if hotuse cold water or little
mild eye water to be had at the drug
store.-Ne,0 York Sun.

room FOR TURKEYS.

The best thing for young turkeys and
young ducks also is the yolks of hard
boiled eggs. After the birds are several
days old the white may be added. An
occasional mixing in of finely chopped
onion is healthful. Rice is food which
is too little appreciated for fowls
Where milk is plentiful it should be
made into pudding with rice, boiling
until the rice is soft. 1t is better not to
use water with the milk, and not to boil
the rice so as to destroy the grain, as it
will not be so easily eaten. All food
should be fed in shallow pans Boiled
milk and water with a little lime water
added occasionally is recommended as an
excellent drink until the birds are three
months old. AT this time loppered milk
or buttermilk may be given in place of
boiled milk. k.-Neio York Herald.

Canine SentineIs.

The canine sentinels now being trained
in Northern France, learn their duties
quickly. Two soldiers start off leading
a dog by his collar, and when mile
from the starting point, one of the men
turns back, says an exchange. In a short
time the dog is let loose, and he imme-
diately tracks the other soldier back to
the post, rarely failing. Dogs will scent
an enemy at a distance of 100 yards,
growing and shifting to attract the sol
diers' attention. In scouting they are
even more useful, for they search fields
and thickets indefatigably-soldiers in
foreign uniforms being hidden there as
decoys during the lessons-and on find
ing an enemy at once run back TO their
keepers, showing every sign of agitation.
1t is avery comical sight to see the dogs
at drill, when the vagrant ours of the
neighborhood generally collect near to
watch the proceedings. .-Nsw York Tsle-
