Saved Music Box.

W. A. Meany, bookkeeper for Joseph
A. Duffy, had an exciting experience
with burglars at his house early Monday
morning. He is but recently married,
and among his wedding presents was a
music box. To this happy circumstance
he attributes the fact that the burglars
did not succeed in carrying off every
thing in his home.
One of the burglars in rummaging
through his drawing room stumbled
across the package Of stored music, and
thinking probably that it contained jew
elry or silverware attempted to open it.
In doing so he set the music machine in
motion, and presently Mr.. Meany was
reused from his slumbers by the touch
ing strains Of "Arld Lang Syne." Mr..
Meany got his gun and started for the
burglars. and they started for a window.
He arrived at the drawing room doorway
just in time to see two burglars leaping
from the window. He fred, but the
robbers continued their fight. One Of
them stumbled in getting over the front
fence, and Mr.. Meany is convinced that
he shot him, as he found several splashes
of blood on the ground and sidewalk

The Heating of Houses.

The question of proper temperature
for sitting and sleeping rooms depends
upon a number of circumstances To
lay down an iron clad rule and expect
it to fit all cases is absurd. The rule in
recent article that no room should
be kept heated beyond a temperature
of 6S degrees is most excellent one
for some people. Ice cold baths are
also absolutely necessary orcontinued
good health-with some people. But
it happens in this world that while the
temperature of one house is different
from that of others it is because the
temperament of one individual is diff
rent from that of others. At least this
is generally the reason. Of course the
necessity for pure air cannot be over
stated. 1t is In fact our life. But the
fact should not be lost sight of that
cold air is not necessarily pure air.
Consequently the practice of opening
up warm room to let the coolest air
of winter rush through it like blast
from the North Pole is by no means
as healthy as it may seem to ''pure
air" enthusiasts. Most of the colds,
coughs and pulmonary troubles of all
sorts are caused by sudden changes in
temperature. and hence it is desirable
to avoid these sudden changes.
lfan open fireplace is used very lit
tie other ventilation is necessary. If a
closed stove is the heater then the
room should be ventilated some hour
during the "a when it is not occupied
and by ventilation is not meant refrig.

more illustrations. Now, if the news
paper publishers can afford to do this,
there is no reason in the world why the
book publishers can't do the same thing.

paper, but ! don't think the average

Americas Great Danger
AN ENGLISH COMMENTARY.

Said an eminent English scientist recently:
THE danger that confronts the great Ameri-
can people to-day is not the possible adop.
ton of a wrong financial policy for the
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough, to be sure, but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible
national disease-I had almost said nati0na!
crime-of overwork. The mad rush for
wealth is set at a killing pace, and thousands
fall by the way every year.

A PerDlexing Family.

The strangest combinations resulting
from the marriage of relatives, that we
have ever heard of is that in the family of
Lewis Osborne who has recently removed
to Pomona from Selma, Fresno county.
Mr.. Osborne tells us that he has been 10
years trying to unravel the perplexities of
relationship that his second marriage has
caused. In l38S he married young wild
ow, who was his own grandfather's third
wife. The couple have little son.
Given this simple statement and num-
ber of peculiar family relationships may be
deduced' For example, Mr.. Osborne is a
grandchild of his wife, His son being also
a son of his (Osborne's) grandmother, is un-
Gle to his own father. Osborne becomes a
brother to his uncles and aunts and also a
stepfather to them. The boy, being the
child of Osborne as grandson, is thereby
a great-grandson Of his own mother, while
his father may rejoice in the title Of great
grandfather to his sown child. Thus the boy
becomes granduncle to himself and his
parents great-grandchild. Osborne is the
boys father and great-grandfather at the
same time, and, being the husband Of his
own grandmother, enjoys the distinction Of
being his own grandfather as we'll. .--Po-

Senator Gear has introduced a bill in
the Ohio Senate which seeks to exempt
from taxation timber land, the object
being to preserve the forest of the
State. Several years ago when the
Editor of the Herald had charge Of the
Marion Mirror he advocated what Mr.
Gear now proposes to enact into law.
AT that time the idea was suggested to
us by a visit to the Hazen home near
Redwood. The Hazens owned very
large tract Of land out of which was
carved a good farm. A large body OF
timber was on the premises, which
was being slashed down and burned.
To the query why they were destroy.
ing the timber at such fearful rate,
the answer came that they could not
afford to pay taxes on unproductive
land. 1t then occurred to us that in
view of the rapid obstruction of the for
ests, 1t would be well to take steps to
protect the same, and one way to that
end would be to mold exempt from tag
alton timber land -Deleware Herald.

DAIRY COWS.
THEIR RATIoNs AND HOW THE
WISCONSIN DAIRYMEN FEED.
Interesting Lessons Taught by the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Bulletin SO Of the Wisconsin expert
ment station at Madison, is devoted to
an inquiry into the methods Of feeding
followed by the practical dairymen Of
the state. The plan Of the investiga-
tion is thus stated by the Professor F.
w. WolI, by whom 1t was conducted:
"In the spring of1S92a circular letter
was addressed to a number Of dairy
men and breeders in the state, asking
for information in regard to the rations
fed to their cattle during the proceed
ing winter. The object in view was to
obtain some definite knowledge Of
what may be advantageously fed to
milch COWS under the conditions pres
ent In cur state to produce the best re-
suits and how the different rations
given might be improved in the opini-
on Of the feeders. This bulletin con-
tains extracts from the replies obtain
ed, the ratlons fed, with their COM
ponement parts and such discussions
as the results suggested. Sixteen dairy
men furnished one or more complete
rations as fed in their herds during
last season, making the number Of
ratlons obtained twenty-one in all.
Among those furnishing data are
some of the leading Wisconsin dairy
men and breeders, and it Is believed
that we ere able to present here many
rations which may be considered model
according to our conditions.
"The rations fed is given in each
case; also Its cost according to average
Wisconsin prices, the annual yield per
COW of butter or milk In each herd, and
other information which seemed of
value; the quantities of digestable COM
ponents in each ration calculated per
thousand pounds live weight are fur
ther given, so that the rations may be
compared with one another. The di-
gestion co-efficient adopted are the re-
suits of work done mostly by American
experiment stations"
From the reports of these dairymen,
which are tabulated in the bulletin, it
appears that the cost of the ration for
COW in Wisconsin ranges from II to 1913
cents, the cow being in full flow of
milk and the cost being based upon the
average market prices for the state.
No deduction is made for the manurial
value of the feeding stuff, but it is esti-
mated that the manure, if properly
saved, would be worth from one-third
to one-half the original cost of the feed.>
The conclusions reached are that
heavy feeding pays. A COW producing
a full flow of milk should receive over
20 per cent. more food than is required
for the maintenance of her body; it is
the excess over maintenance that
brings profit to the feeder. The teach
ings of the bulletin may be briefly stat
ed as follows:
Keep only cows that respond to good
feeding.
Feed literally but not to waste.
Select such feed stuffs as will supply
a fair quantity ofprotein.
Raise and feed more oats and clover,
use bran, shorts and oil meal whenever
needed and when obtainable at a
reasonable price.

PEOPLE generally speaking of the
big buildings in this country scarcely
imagine how very big some of them
are. For instance as an illustration
take the Manufacturers and Liberal
Arts building at the Worlds fair
grounds. 1t is exactly one mile around
the building; it will hold two hundred
and fifty thousand people at one time;
it is sixteen hundred and eighty-seven
feet wide, or, in other words its length
is from the square to the Lake Shore
depot-under one roof. 1t took two
hundred and fifteen cars to bring the
flooring, and it required five car loads
of glass in the roof alone. One can
scarcely realize that human skill could
conceive and erect such a building but
it is there all right.
