A Plant and Ant Partnership,

A plant known as the bulls horn aca-
ca, of Central America, is reported to
have entered into partnership with a
certain species of ant. 1t not only pro-
vides this ant with food and drink, in
the shape of tiny egg-like bodies on its
leaves, and sweet liquid contained in
special wells on its stalk, but in addition
it furnishes commodious tenement for
the ant in the hollow spines with which
it is armed. In return for these favors
the ant protects the acacia from its in
sect enemies. s.-Ne,o Orleans Times Demo

A Clock of Bread Crumbs.

The Milan museum has recently come
into the possession of remarkable

entirely of bread crumbs. A poor Italian
workman made it. Every day he set

anchorage on each side of the stream may
be made of a frame of logs filled with
stones and buried in the ground. II the
banks are not high enough to afford safe
passage for floods under the bridge,

put up to give sufficient rise for the floor
of the bridge. Four No. wires are
enough for the floor of three foot-wide

A sniff Saved Him.

During some recent experiments at
Chatham, England, a sapper was found
unconscious in the folds of half-empty
war balloon. The mans pulseless heart
led many persons to think him dead, but
Colonel Henry Elsdale, of the Royal
British Engineers, bethought him of
some compressed oxygen that had been
stored in tubes for the oXyhydrogen
light. This pure oxygen was pumped
into the sapper's lungs, and he instantly
recovered. .-PhiLadeLphia Record,

HIGH FEEDING.

Z The statement that "all the overfed
cows in America could be accommodated
In a moderate sized stable is going the
rounds, but is not likely to be universal
ly accepted as true presentation of the
case. That overfeeding is not very gen.
eral We admit, and we believe that there
are farmers and dairymen who think that
they run perilously close to the danger
line in this direction, who really have no
practical knowledge of what is involved
in genuine high feeding. But there are
a good many men who crowd their COWS
too hard, either for their own profit or
for the good of the animals. They do
not intend to keep their cows very long,
but they mean to make the most of
them while they last. There is another
class, and large one, which feeds so
irregularly as to receive nearly all the
evils of overlooking, yet without obtain
ing anything like the increased returns
which they hope to secure. When but
ter is high they feed literally, but when
the price falls the quantity of grain is
diminished, if its use is not entirely dis
continued. Under this uncertain method
the health and productive capacity Of
the cows become impaired and the busi,
ness of keeping them rapidly becomes
improbable. DairymaR.

POINTS IN FAVOR OF THE SHEEP.

POINTS IN FAVOR OF THE SHEEP.
( In paper read before the Kansas I'm.
proved Stockbreeders' Association by Mr..
E. d. King, of Burlington, the sheep in-
dustry was considered by the essayist
from the practical standpoint of pro.
fitable returns. He said that no indivi-
dual farmer can prosper Tor a series of
years by growing grain alone and selling
it. We must diversity our produts. OF
the great staples, fax aud linen, sorghum
and beet-sugar, wool and mutton, we
cannot have a surplus for years to come.
The sheep is the poor mans best stock,
because one can get Il start more cheaply
than with any other stock aud they make
much quicker returns, paying their way
as they go. If he dies at birth he has
consumed nothing. If he dies the first
winter his wool will pay his way. If he
lives TO be sheared he brings his owner
IN debt to him. If the horse or steer
dies at three or four years, the loss is al
most a total one. The sheep is the stock
for the poor man because he can be win
tered without grain (when that fails), on
corn fodder and sorghum and straw, and
the sleeps fleece, if he is a good one,
with AIerino blood in his veins, will pay
his way and a profit until the grain to
fatten him does grow.
The Merino is the tue upland and
hill sheep, because he. will best endure
extremes of heat and cold and drought,
and because he is the only improved
sheep that will bear herding and keeping
in flocks of any size. Americans, by
years of faithful selection aud breeding
have developed him from the thin, fiat
ribbed, long-necked, illy-coyered sheer
of an early day into the low, broad
heavy-built sheep Of the present models
OF form and beauty, covered everywher,

ZONE CAUSE OF POVERTY

The Chicago Tribune has just published q
brief table which is of considerable interest
TO every student of the liquor question. The
population OF Chicago is in round numbers
1000 600. A recent report of the city Board
or Health gives the number OF firms and
persons engaged in various occupations.
From that report the Tribune takes the hg-
ures in the following table, which shows the
number of inhabitants to each saloon, meat
market, ETC.;

The ofiiceholders are at the head OF the
procession, aud the saloons come next. No
tice the great jump there Is from the saloon
to the grocery and meat market, both OF
which cater to Npe prime necessity Of man
kind-food. The Tribune remarks that
there is one municipal and Government
employe for eveE 120 Chicagoans men,
women and children; that is a good record.
and it shows where the taxes go.' That pa
per might well also remark that there is one
saloon for every 217 people-men, women
and children-in Chicago, and that this
shows where the money goes. IL shows why
there is so much poverty in the slums of
Chicago; it shows why vice is so rampant
there; it shows why it is the breeding-place
of anarchy and the hot-bed of socialism.
Probably every one remembers how in his
childhood, the familiar adage was dinned
into his ears, "You can't have you cake, and
eat it, too" This adage has its application

wealthy, but they desire also 60 satisfy their

a very important branch of the subject
is that relating to the means for avoiding

differences to arbitration, nor is il deemed
a breach of international etiquette for a
friendly Power TO offer it's services as ar
bltrator. Several difficulties which might
nave resulted seriously have thus been
prevented, the most notable instance be-
Ing the arbitration of the Alabama claims.
IL Is not probable that any amount of in
ternauonal law or any number of treaties
will put an end to war. A recent French
writer has said, 'as long as there are two
men, bread, money and a woman in the
world, there will be war" and the re-
mark is well founded; but the general
agreement of the leading nations of the
world IN matters which interest all will
render wars less common in the future

THE Marieopa grand jury has gone Cochise one better and made a three column report. One man who was a crank ran things to suit himself, and thinking that he knew it all, the bal ance si the jurymen let him make out report and They aii signedit. It was series of charges against the super yisors, sheriff and recorder and the county physician, and now every one who sat on tha. jnry wishes that he he'd never been born. The charges have been proven false, and made out oI spite and malice. Regardless of politics the press of ihe city of Phenix condemn the jary for allowing them selves to be trapped into making such asses of themselves.

Both these gentlemen were as much in the province of this grand jury as Dr. Toney who should have been investigated" The fact that the Akboond Of Scwst is not a republican may have preserved his bacon.g
