A Submarine sentry.

It Is an. inexpensive device, simple
In action and to look at, but it seems
to contain a potency for good which
it would be difficult to exaggerate. A
written description would be difficult
to understand, but the instrument
consists OF two pieces OF three,quarter-
inch board screwed together at right
angles and sharpened at one end. To
the sharpened end catch and bar
are attached. When this continuance
is suspended at a certain angle from o
wire attached to q ship in motion, it
Immediately takes q header toward
the bottom and follows the course of
the ship at any desired distance below
wire given to it. Surprising, for in
stance, that it is set at twenty faith
oms, it goes quietly along until the
twenty-fathom limit is reached. The
sharp end always travels first, and as
soon as the bar attached to it touches
the bottom spring is released which
detaches the sentry and permits it to
rise to the surface, while at the same
instant warning bell is rung auto
maticalIy on deck. The invention has
been tried under various conditions,
and has always worked to perfection,
and it is claimed that no ship provid-
ed with this apparatus could get into
shoal water without tho officer OF the
deck being instantly aware of u. The
Importance of this, if true, is some
thing that can be readily appreciated
by the yeriest landsman.

Sex of Poultry at VIII.

Can the sex of poultry be controlled
We have the assurances OF one OF our
advertisers that the sex OF animals is
at the will OF man, but long and care.
full study OF egg markings and other
experiments have so far developed no
correct guide for producing the re-
quired sex in poultry. Approximate
results, however, seem now to be OBJ
tanned III this direction by b. +. Rob.
erts of Leighton, Cal. His rule, as
evolved by repeated tests, is that
1.-THE most vigorous OF the parents will
control the sex and mark it the OPP
posite ofits own" That is a male in
full maturity and vigor will produce
female offspring when crossed on fe-
males OF less vigor, and vice versa. OF
course invariable results should not
be expected, but when a large per cent
OF the chicks are the desired sex the
end is practically achieved. Mr.. Rob-
erts says in the California Orchard
and Farm:
my matings this season were made
with view to the production OF rs
many pulets as possible. My cocks
are therefore fully matured and mated
with my most promisingpulets. The
result, thus far, has been a success,
fully IS per cent OF my hatch being
pullets. If | should desire cockerels
would mate an 8 or 8 months old
cockerel with or year old hens; or,
ii desired an equal distribution OF
the sexes | would endeavor to have
the parents as nearly equal as posi-
bic. The latter result will be aCknow-
LEGGED as the experience OF those who
allow their chickens OF both sexes to
run together the year round"

binding the grass into bundles il
cured out and made hay. 1t cured
perfectly green, in short. was per-
fectly cured hay. This observation
induced us to try the binder in the
general work in making timothy OIL
mixed hay.
We set the binder to cut stubble
four inches high. The advantage gain
ed in cutting the stubble this hight, is
that the ground is not left so bare as
to be burnt with hot summer sun and
the after-growth will start sooner and
cover the ground and protect the
roots of grass. We use three horses
with the bundle carrier, with one man
to drive and one to shock, and can
put up great amount OF hay per-
fectly secure in one day, putting nine
sheaves in a shock, or eight sheaves
and one cap.
As we go along | wish to mention my
mistakes also. Last year we were in
too much of hurry and put in three
loads before it was cured. We hauled
it in as soon rs you would hay cured
in swath. The consequence was, three
loads OF spoiled hay. The correct way
is to let it remain in shock until
thoroughly cured, something like
wheat or oats, just so it does not kill
the grass where the shocks stand.
Hay put up this way the rains will
not damage and the butts of the
sheaves will be perfectly bright The
advantages gained so far are: A small
number of hands, more rapid work;
one load OF the same bulk, binder-cut,
will make twice the number OF pounds
OF hay cut the old way; the sam ad
vantage is also gained in the barn
room; n barn filled with bindercut
hay will hold twice the number OF lbs.
as hay made in the old way, pro
vided the sheaves are laid rs we would
lay sNeaves of wheat in stack.
| wish to note here that the sheaves
want to he bound well toward the
butt, for in handling the hay is in
clined to crawl out of the band ii
bound otherwise. The sheaves bound
ordinary size weigh seven pounds
each, making it easy to feed an equal
amount at each feed.-A. S. Frosman

Managing Glover,

Usually, clover ripens for the first
crop OF hay when we may expect
more or less shoWery weather, and it
is quite an item to get it cut, cured
and stored away IN as good a condi-
ton as possible, but when the larger
percent OF the flowers are turning
brown it will not answer to wait un.
til all are ready as some will get too
ripe.
Glover can be seriously injured by
allowing it to remain in the sun too
long, as it will get so dry that in hand
by the leaves breaking off. At the
same time it is very important to
cure out well in order that it may
keep. 1t is not best to commence
cutting until the dew is reasonably
well dried out, as it will cure out more
than if cut when wet with dew.
If the sun is shining out warm and
clear, three or four hours will be SUI
fiCient to cure out so that it can be
raked up ana put in small stacks
where it should be allowed to stand
over one day, when on the third day
1t can be hauled in and stored away.
OF course, no set rules OF management
| can be given as the weather must
always he taken into consideration
and what will be best one year will
not answer at another time.
Clover will spoil very readily ii
moved or stacked up damp, either
because not well cured out or from
getting wet after cutting. If layers OF
dry straw are put in between the
layers OF clover it can be stored away
with less curing than il moved away
alone.-American Grange Bulletin.

FsTe6 Just raght
Liver, Stomach, and Bowels, by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
do it in just the right way, too
by using Natures own methods.
That's why they're better than the
dreadful, old fashioned pills, with
their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're the smallest and the cas-
lest to take; only one little Pellet
is needed for a gentle laxative
three for cathartic. They cleanse
and regulate the system thoroughly
but it's done easily and naturally.
Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of

prevented, relieved, and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned. You pay only for value

Opening the CanaY.

The most acceptable proposition that can be
made to persons troubled with chronic consti-
patton. is to open that important canal-the
bowels. That proposition can be carried out
by the parties interested IL they resort to Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, the most effective,
most genial Alternative extant. 1t is the mis-
take OF many otherwise sensible people, that
they resort to drastic or in other words, vio-
lent purgatives. Without exaggeration, this is
highly injurious since such indictments
weaken the bowels besides convulsing both
them and the stomach with pain Relief
sought from the Bitters comes freely enough,
but they never produce pain, excessive action,
or subsequent weakness of the bowels. Liver
and kidney trouble, malaria dyspepsia, lack OF
stamina and tendency to rheumatism, are
remedied by this pleasant substitute for
drenching cathartics.

One Hundred Per Cent Profit.

Our sheep business dates back
farther than can remember. Its or
igin on the mothers side was three
superlative native ewes, that sheared
~ pounds OF wool each. We have
never bought an eve since, but have
sold probably upward OF 1000 sheep,
all our own production, and our stock
in trade today numbers AS all told.
a year ago last May we sheared 300
sheep, last May 43O, so that our flock
for the year averaged about 400,
from which our books show direct
income OF 81, 700, besides the surplus
numbers we have on hand over our
averaged numbered flock, and i'm
provement over the original stock
with an average OF 2l3 pounds OF wool
per head, to an average for the 43O
last May OF 10y pounds per head.
Then in conclusion. Why do we
keep sheep? Certainly not because
we have no experience with other lines
OF stock, as we are continuous pro-
/ ducers ofsheep, hogs; cattle and grain.
/ And they prove most remunerativeto
us, all things considered, in the order
named.
The dairy business, though disagree
ably combining, seems to be overdone,
especially in the production of bitter,
solid rubbery, and indigestible cheese.
While for the near future OF the beef
question we are with everybody else,
hopeful. Still the Disbursements OF
the present and the near past need no
mention. OF the grain fed to the hog
