Trotting Horses.

The recent sales of trotting stock in
Kentucky, and those now in progress in
New York, prove conclusively that, de-
spite the predictions of a few croakers,
high prices for the trotter are still the
thing. OF course we do not mean TO say
that all bring fabulous sums, yet the de-
>mand for a frst-class article is very
strong and is continually growing. The
trotting horse industry is now q firmly
established industry, and breeders from
one end of the country to the other have
found il paying investment when judi
ciously managed. The beauty of the
business is that most any man great or
small may indulge his tastes, and for a
fair investment the man of moderate
means may, with the use OF judgment
in breeding have his chance with the
best. Last years phenomenal colt, AK
tell, was bred and raised by man
who had only q small amount invested in
trotting stock in comparison with Some
of the breeders in this country, yet he
had the best one out and sold him for the
highest price ever brought by horse.
His theory of breeding, however, was
correct, and his Judgment in selecting a
sire first class, and the results TO him
remunerative in the extreme.

THE NAKED TRUTH.
What is Good for Colorado Would be Good
for Texas.

What is Good for Colorado Would be Good
for Texas.
A Colorado agricultural paper never
told a more truthful thing than the fol-
lowing:
"Colorado will soon produce its own
pork and lard. A few suggestions on
the subject will be proper right here.
The larger proportion of the swine after
being fatted should be slaughtered and
the lard rendered and the meat cured at
home instead of selling them on foot to
be manipulated by the various combina-
tions of middlemen. Butchering Is
growing to be one of the lost arts on
the Western farm and much to the
disadvantage of the farmers. In the
South they manage this better and kill
and cure their own meat, selling the sur
plus to the people of the neighboring
towns after it Is cured. We must come
back to this plan very largely in the
West. Village people would much rather
buy hams, bacon, sausage and lard Of
those they know will give them honest,
wholesome goods than buy that which
they are not sure of, and there Is good
money in supplying them.

Hor.in Mexico.

If farmers in Texas have the slightest
doubt that there is money in raising hogs
it is because they are not posted on this
particular industry. Hogs are being
bought nthis state at good prices and
shipped to Ell Paso, where they are sold
to parties who reship them to different
points in Mexico, where they are sold at
a good profit to the middle men. Not
only is this the case, bat Kansas City
buyers ere constantly shipping porkers
from that point to Mexico land are max
ing good profits. Now, if, hogs can be
shipped from Missouri TO Mexico at a
profit, il is plain to be seen chat they can
be raised in Texay and shipped to the
same market at better profit. -.
The moral of this is: Raise hogs.

The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1890-06-29
A Remarkable Beacon.

The most extraordinary of all lighthouses
is to be found on Arnish Rock, Stornoway
bay-a rock which is separated from the
island of Lewis by a channel over 500 feet
wide. 1t is in the Hebrides, Scotland. On
this rock conical beacon is erected and
on it's summit a lantern is fixed, from
which, night after night, shines light
which is seen by the fishermen far and
wide. Yet there is no burning lamp in the
lantern and no attendant ever goes to it,
for the simple reason that there is no lamp
to attend to, 10 wick to trim and no oil
well TO replenish.
The way in which this peculiar light
house is illuminated is this: On the island
of Lewis, 5Ll0 feet or so away, is a light
house, and from a window in the tower a
stream of light is projected on mirror in
the lantern on the summit of Arnish Rock.
These rays are reflected on to an arrange
ment of prisms, and by their action are
converged to focus outside the lantern,
from where they diyerge in the necessary
direction.
The consequence is that to all intents
and purposes a lighthouse exists which
has neither lamp nor Lighthouse keeper,
and yet which gives as serviceable a light
taking into account the requirements of
this lOcality-as if an elaborate and costly
lighthouse, with lamp, service room, bed
room, living room, store room, oil room
and water tanks were erected on the sum
nit Of the rock.-New York Telegram.
