Dutch vil1agers' Cows Threatened BY the
Zuyder Zoo.
One night in October we were startled
by the ringing Of the alarm bells. We
| expected to find . fire, but the peas.
ants, rs they tumbled out Of their
doors, shouted: 1.-THE cowsl The cows!"
which brings us back to q curious bit
OF local history and custom. AS is well
known, the Zuyder Zee is kept back
from these villages by great dixie
that connects sand dune with sand
dune. During the low water of sum.
mer the sea retires for long distance,
and the uncovered shore becomes fine
pasturage, giving the farmers chance
to convert their own meager grass
patches into hay for the winter. I'm.
fortunately, this provision of nature
cannot be enjoyed by all. 1t is n be-
quest to these villages from a countess
who died in the year 1642; to speak eX-
actly, each descendant of resident of
the villages of Laren, Blaricum and
Huizen, of that date, has inherited the
right to pasture seven cows This priv
ilege cannot be bought or sold; it can
be acquired only from an ancestor Of
the village of that date. When the
spring comes, the cattle are driven to
the pastures, where they remain for the
summer. Their owners commonly live
miles away, and it necessitates two
daily milking trips, on which they
jog over in cart with the cans
and pals at midday and midnight.
The pastures are hundreds of acres
in extent, and for long time
it puzzled us how an owner could
find his cows on dark night; but we
discovered that they have trained their
animals to come to n certain place at
the same hour each day and night by
always carrying to them some dainty
in the shape of salt and potatoes.
During the summer these pastures are
used without danger, but in the au-
tumn the succession of northerly gales,
in conjunction with a high tide, will
put the land many feet under water.
Sometimes the inundation is so sudden
that the cattle are caught by the rising
water and drowned. So, at the begin
ming of September, watchmen are al
ways stationed on the dixie to keep a
sharp lookout upon the sea. The

sight of one another, and the Huizen
tower is in close communication with
the dixie. With a rise of the sea, the
man on the dixie hangs up a lantern; if
the sea rises more he hangs up two,
which is danger-signal; butt it rises
fast, three, which says, "Great danger;
come quickly" Similar lights are
flashed from tower to tower by watch
ers in the belfries, and at three lights
The alarm bells are rung. This was the
alarm we heard, and in ten minutes
the roads were thronged with people
on foot and on horseback, rushing to
the rescue of the herds. This year
none were drowned; but it was peril

sighs of relief as they told us the de-

In beautiful sweep Of lowland
north Of Melvale station, on the North.
ern Central railroad and about nine
miles from the city, there is n peculiar
farm. 1t is peculiar in that It renders
to its owner and tiller but one crop in
four years, and that crop of willow
shoots.
The farmer, Antoine Spath, came
from Frankfort, Germany, many years
ago, and after erecting himself com.

In the midst OF a picturesque clump o1
willows at the end of the little valley, SET
abont planting his first crop of willow
shoots. Every year since he has gone
on planting row after row, until the
valley has become covered with them.
Spath had learned the art of weaving
willow ware in his .boyhood days by
the shores of the River Main, and as
fast as his little plantation grew he
gathered the shoots, stripped them OF
their green outer covering, and, after
drying them, wovc baskets of every
conceivable form or size.
ut seems rather peculiar work in
this country" said the willow farmer,
in speaking of his business, "but in all
parts of Europe, especially in the Ger.
man provinces. it is very common
thing to find willow plantations and
willow weavers, for there willow is
used in many forms and for a greater
number of purposes than find it used
in this country. In Germany and
France willow is employed in making
at least twenty different sorts of bird
cages, while in America metal is used

tirely of willow. Then there are q
hundred and one shapes of marketing
skets, baskets used by milliners and
laundresses, baskets and panniers to be
carried upon the backs of men and
beasts for holding fish and fowl.
SIN preparing the willow for the
weaver, we plant the slips in long rows
parallel with a running stream ot
water, and cut them when they have
attained four years of growth. The
cutting time is early in the spring, be
fore the sap is done running, and after
tying them in bundles they are placed
in ponds of water to keep them in 9
green state until ready for stripping
Stripping the willow is accomplished
by drawing the switches through and
between two heavy iron stanchions
whose edges peel the light green barl
from the white heart, and then. afte,
drying or curing them upon long racks
we have got the willow in a form fol

1t was many years after I planted
this farm with willows before any one
thought of initiating my example, bu
now there are several other plantatio
located upon the Washington and An
napolis roads, and though you may fint
quite as busy scenes there, you will
scarcely find more picturesque place
than this anywhere, and that was one
of the reasons that led me to settle
here. e.''-Baltimore American.

One of the Natural Limits of the White

Europeans and North Americans al
most universally believe that the white
man is destined to subjugate, and
therefore govern. and therefore ex-

ever it's origin, will always be the SUI
perior one; and that he will, by de-

cans and natives of Spanish America;
and, in directing, use them, if for their
advantage, still also for his own. That

idea upon which they justify their

as the soil he occupies begins from

we take it, one grand danger of Europe,
especially in Germany and Russia, and
of all the older settlements in North
