calves and lambs, and feed literally from
the start to the end.
3rd. When we feed better grass. Our
pastures are often disgraceful. IF land is
too rough to pillow and too poor to grow
white beans or buekwheat, we keep It In
pasture; or If it is naturally rich alluvial
land, we let the water drown out the valu-
able grasses, and weeds, rushes and coarse
grass take their place.
4th. When we make a regular business
of fattening few cattle and sheep every
winter
= 9Th. When the people are educated
sufficiently to know good meat from bad
especially to know fat from tallow.
9Th. We viii not say that we shall have
better meat when people are willing to pay
for it. In all Conscience, the butchers
charge US enough now! People are will
ing to pay good, even an extravagant
price for good meat, if they are certain of
getting it. But the truth is that
we pay big prices for poor meat, and NUT
ton sold for fourteen cents per pound that
as compared with good, well-fatted beef
is not worth five cents a pound. From
sixty to seventy per cent. of 1t Is water.
After deducting the water, the bone, the
tough skin, the hard sinews, gristle. and
tallow, how much tender, juicy, nutritious
flesh and fat are there left? A friendp
ours, who is somewhat hasty in temper
was carving such a piece of beef
when he suddenly jumped up, taking the
beef with him ON the carving fork, and
rushing to the butcher-shop threw it at the
head of the man who sold it to him. We
could almost wish that every butcher who
sells such stuff could be served in the same
way-or better still, we wish people knew
what good meat is, and would stop buying
poor lean meat at any price. Let the
sausage-makers have it, or the manufac-
turers of fertilizers.
18th. We shall have better meat as soon
as we learn that putting butter on dim
ner table is neither stylish nor economical.
The practice of having butter at dinner,
joined with the inability to tell tallow from
fat, is one of the chief reasons why many
people object to fat meat. They do not
know that fat is fully as nutritious as but
ter, and far more palatable than poor
butter American A priculturist.

A Region of PerpetuaI Frost.

The altitude of the Stevens mine on
Mount Mcclellan Call is $500 feet. At
the depth of from go to 200 feet the crevice
matter, consisting, silicon, calcite, and ore,
together with the surrounding wall rock
is a solid frozen mass. Mcclellan is one
of the highest eastern spurs of the snowy
range. It has the form of horseshoe
with a bold escarpment of feldsparic rock
nearly 1000 feet high, which in some
places is nearly perpendicular
In descending into the mine nothing
unusual occurs until a depth of eighty or
ninety feet is reached, when the frozen ter
ritory begins and continues for over 200
feet. There are no indications of thaw,
summer or winter.
The whole of the 200 feet of frozen walls
is surrounded by massive rocks. The
miners, being unable to excavate the
frozen material with pick and drill in the
usual way, foand that the only way to
mine In this peculiar lode was to kindle
huge fire against the face" of the tun-
mel, and In the morning take out the ore
that had been thawed loose during the
night.
In fact this was the only mode of min
ing while going through the frozen belt
some ten or fifteen years since The tun-
uel Is HOW IldIly uunuGeu I6eG u66p, anu
still there is no diminution of frost. There
is, far as can be seen, no opening or chan
mel through which the frost could possibly
have reached such a depth from the sur
fyce. Besides this there are many other
mines In the same vicinity in like frozen
state.
The theory was that the rock was de
posted IN glacial times, when there was
cold enough to freeze the very earth S heart.
In that case the mine is an ice-house,
whose stores have remained unthawed for
the last $4,000 years.
The phenomenon is not uncommon or
inexpligable when openings can be found
through which a current of air can pass;
but cases which, like the Stevens mine,
show no opening for air currents must be
referred to imbeded icebergs of the glacial
period.-Baltimore American.

surgeon. why, it's four hours past mid
night, and you are alive and well. !"
With violent start, as he remembered
his position, the stranger glanced at the
mantelshelf. -Four O'clock said he
-four o'clock! Thank God, there was no
compact" Then another fear possessed
him: SIS it's the clock right?''
ITO the minute, said the surgeon,
standing, gravely by with averted head,
as his visitor, needless of his presence, fell
upon his knees and buried his face In his
hands.
As he rose to his feet the old church
clock slowly struck the hour of four, APP
pearing to both the listeners to do so with
an emphasis as unusual as it was welcome.
As the last stroke sounded, the stranger,
who could even now hardly realize his
position, threw up the window and
extended his head. The fog had disap-
peared the air was crisp and clear, and
the distant rumbling of the early market
carts betokened the beginning of another
day.
How came I to sleep?' he inquired,
closing the window and turning to the sur
geon.

A Once-Despised Vegetable.
Indianapolis News.

Some paper, speaking of the tomato
crop, says that 1000, 900 cans were put
up this year past, :" and refers to the old
times when the tomato was called the
love apple. and held about as fair a
match as ground cherries as food for
man or beast. B. R. Mulgrove, the old
est newspaper man in the city, says he re-
members seeing, when boy, in 1885 or
thereabouts, several stocks or bushes of
Glove apples growing on the north side
of Market street, near Delaware, in the
garden of John Wilkins or Archie" Lin
genfelter. They were not called ''toma-
toes. and nobody thought of eating them
more than ''jimson burs." They were
not commonly grown, even for garden
ornament, and it was half score of years
later before they came into even occasional
table use. But he remembers that some
of the doctors of that day recommended
them as healthful thing to eat, and the
new name tomato" became familiar. The
tomato is now more often and generally
used, and in more forms than any other
garden product whatever.

A SEVERE REBUKE.
How a Young Man Treated a Girl Who
Wasn't Ready.

A severe but well-merited rebuke was
administed not long ago, says the New
York Evening Suns Woman About Town,
to a society girl by a young man who has
the courage ola very creditable conviction
upon a certain common lack of the incest
courtesy among women who are really very
well bred, and who would not offend
for the world if they stopped to think. He
told the story himself, as follows:
During one of my busiest weeks | IN
vited young woman to go with me to the
theatre on a certain first night. When the
evening came | reached her home shortly
before o'clock | waited in the reception
room for some time. The mamma appear
ed. We chatted for quarter of an hour
longer Still no sign of the young woman.
| looked at my watch; it was just time fo1
the curtain to rise at the theatre. | par
ticularly wanted to see the opening of the
play.
'sThen rose and took one of my checks
from my pocket Madame, | said to the
mothor, here is the check of Miss DIS
chair, and the carriage is at the door. Will
you be kind enough to ask her to come
when it suits her best For myself, want
to see the opening of the play. And
walked out
And what did the young woman do?'
asked three breathless listeners all at
once.
''She came in the course of half an hour.
She had good sense enough to take the re-
buke in the right way. She knew she de-
served it.
''Oh, but I would never have forgiven
you'll" sighed the chorus.

And tho many such we've known, love,
Too prone, alas to range,
We both can speak of one, love,
Whom Time could never change.

A report on the tobacco culture in Cuba
by the United States Consul gives some
particulars which may be interesting to
American tobacco growers. 1t is well
known that the quality of the tobacco de-
ponds much upon process of fermentation
which goes on in the cured leaf when it is
bulked in mass before it is packed A
certain process of bulking tobacco for
this part of the curing has been patented
by California grower named Culp, but
we are unable to give detailed descrip-
ton of his process. 1t depends, however,
upon peculiar sweating or fermentation
of the leaf when laid up IN square heaps
under pressure. The Cuban process de-
ponds upon the addition of ferment to
the leaves as they are bulked, this. ferment
consisting of a liquid made by sleeping
the stems of the tobacco In water until
fermentation occurs, when each layer of
the leaves is sprinkled with it as the bulk
is made This liquid, of course, starts
a fermentation in the leaves, by which the
desired flavor is brought out. When this
process is completed the tobacco is packed
fer sale.
The condition of the live stock market is
the subject of an exhaustive report by Mr..
p. D. Armour, the largest dealer in live
cattle and dressed meats in the United
States. The firm of Armour & Co. slaugh-
tered in 1888 340,649 cattle, weighing
nearly 800 ,O00,0 600 pounds, on which the
profit was S418, 104.40, or an average per
head of 81 %. Mr.. Armour states that the
low price of cattle are due to the excessive
supply, which has increased 81 per cent.
since 1880, while the population has in
creased only 20 per cent. He shows large
falling off in the market value of every
product of cattle; in hides an average de-
crease of 81. so each; of tallow, 37s cents
per pound (nearly so per cent. J; of oleo-
margarine oil, 5 cents per pound, or 40 per
cent, which alone, with the tax on this oil
entails loss of from 81 to s. per head of
all the cattle slaughtered, while the de-
creased value of corned beef amounts to
more tkan so per cent. The receipts of
range cattle In Chicago have increased since
1880 from 1913, 800 to $40, 1914 for the year
1888. At the same time the foreign mar
kets for cattle and dressed meats have been
seriously restricted by the injurious effects
of the reports of diseases among the herds
and the unwholesome character of the
meats, which have induced Legislation that
has been exceedingly harmful to this great
industry.
