craftsmanship of pioneer days here,
the following anecdotes: Among the
Angelenos of the later thirties were
Jack Brings and 4sntonino Buelna,
Doth otter-hunters. These gentry were

Anew Strawberry.

The story comes from :El Dorado
County, CAL, of1the discovery OF a
new and uncommonly delicious variety
|. of strawberry. twas found several
years ago in avid state, some 8 900
feet above sea level on the Sierra
Nevada Mountains. The plant yield
Led abundantly berries of medium size
and exquisite flavor, and the finder
concluded that he: had lighted upon a
astrawberry bonanza.
He first transplanted a few plants
and gave them a thorough trial. The
results were SO satisfactory that he
obtained three hundred more, and
subsequently, enlarged his patch to a
total of 5000 plants.
This ild.snountain berry is.a per
feet Towering: variety. It has proved
atobe all that it promised in it's wild
state as an abundant .yielder, and the
berries are described as exceedingly
sweet, juicy, aromatic and delicious,
melting in the,mouth without leaving
a. particle Of hard core, and as filling
THE atmosphere around thepatch with
a delightful spicy strawberry aroma.
No fewer than sixty five ripe berries
were counted on one plant, with.
numerous young shoots loaded
with blossoms and all sizes of berries.
So numerous were the ripe berries
visible in the plantation that they
gave a beautiful ruddy ,tinge to the
surface OF the patch
The berries of Observation-Disclosures
riety are not large, butetheir abund-
anee makes upforlack of size, and it
is thoughtlthat by proper cultivation
the size can be increased.
On;their native heath, in.the upper
Sierras, these plants bear fruit eignt
montass III the year, and would CON
tinue longerthut for,the fact that they
are "nipped untimely" by frosty and
snowy weather. On lower levels it is
expected that ten monthswill be the
least period of Eheir c0ntinuousibear
ing.
We suspect that there is just q
touch OF ahe breezy b yperbole OF the
glorious West in the description Of
this new candidate for popular favor;
but we are ready to welcome rhe

what to DO With the stones.

z
We have all heard the old witticism
about the farmers OF New Hampshire
being compelled to plant corn with a,
rifle on account OF the uperabundance
of stones. There are many farms,
and good ones too, in these United
States, on which, if the stones are not
quite SO Astounding as that, they are
nevertheless SO thickly distributed as
to be a real nuisance And the worst
of it is, the number in the fields seem
to be just as greatevery year, no mat
ter how thoroughly they were gather
ed UP the previous season.
We once knew a good old Baptist
deacon, who sturdily insisted that
stones grow. II know they do he
would say, because after I've cleaned
'em all out of my garden one year,
there's just as many there next year,
an more, too," We won't quarrel
with the deacon's logic; it's as good as
many more scientific theory that
has had it's day and departed. The
fact remains that the supply ofstones
on many farms is apparently mex
haustible; and what to do with them
is a serious problem.
There is q limit to pillng them on
top of the ground, either in. the form
OF stone wal orof big mounds, like a
Biblical monument. Stone fences are
q good deal of ,bnuisance themselves.
Unless laid in cement which would be
rather too expensive for the ordinary
farmer-they become harbors for I'M
desirable ''small deer" of various
sorts, and through them and longside
OF them weeds and brambles find un-
molested foothold-
1.-THE wild brer,
The thorn and the thistle grew higher
and higher"
Yet this seems to be the readiest
way to dispose Of vast quantity of
loose stone picked from cultivated
fields.
Another plan is to bury them in
drains which is a useful method, but
likewise limited. They may also be
utilized in filling up ,swampy spots;
and some wet holes will absorb an
immense lot, especially if, as is desir-
able, the valuable muck is first
removed and composted for fertiliz-
ing purposes.
A good deal OF stone might be made
'use'of, with the aid OF a neighborhood
stone breaker, in improving the con-
dition of'the roads. In stony locali-
ties, it is true, there are apt to be
more-stones in the road than are
Nwanted a1paa1 ". Int .+boro oro oln,oS+
always stretches Of low-lying road
that need improvement, while a
smooth roadway of broken stone lis
bettereeverywhere; than. one made up
OF boulders and Futs.
These are some OF the,ways in which
stones maybe disposed. Of. And yet,
when alliis done, in stony regions they
are apt, like the poor, railways with
U.S., a.problem as unsolved and un-
.solyable. as the, origin Of evil.

Treating Horses Legs and Feet.
There seems.to be some difference of
opinion as toshow horses feet and legs
should be treated. The feet should
be carefully picked out daily, SO that
no'foreign substance shall find more
than temporary Judgement at
tho most. They should also be
washed out carefully with sponge and
wafer and without. las general thing,
wetting che hair above the hoof. IL
inclined to drynesa, they should be
stuffed with wet clay, which is simple,
but excellent preventive. Where the
horse is kept shod most Of the time,
the shoes should be removed, the feet
dressed and the shoes replaced, at
Feast every foar weeks; If the feet grow
very vast this should be done more
frequently No foot no horse. z
AS a rule the legs should be kept
dry and cleaned thoroughly with the
brush. but if the horse is brought ia
with the legs covered with mud or
dried perspira tion, it is best TO cleanse
them with clean water and wipe them
dry, leaving them so the hair will feel
slightly moist to the hand.

Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
won't make new lungs-but it will
make diseased ones healthy when
nothing else will. There's reason
for it, too. Consumption is Lung
scrofula. For every form of scrof-

the most potent strength restorer,
blood cleanser, and flesh builder
known to medical science. For
Weak Lungs, Splitting of Blood,
Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and
all lingering Coughs, it's an une-

one. If it doesn't benefit or cure,
you have your money back. You've

It's especially potent in curing
