What to Consider When Selecting Animals
for FattenIng.

for FattenIng.
An experienced feeder gives the fol-
lowing description of the animals he
selects to fatten:
The nor should be broad that the
mouth may close upon a goodly guam
THY of grass at each bite and thus save
the time of the animal, for even in the
work of eating time is money. Quickly
filed, the steer is most of the time
resting quiet ~, converting his food
into tender, juicy flesh. The head
should be short and broad, giving an
ample breadth between the eyes. Long,
deer-like faces belong to the ne'er do
well The head should be held wen
M and the carriage be spirited. The
horn should be fine and short. and the
eye should be bright and full The
neck should be short and fine; a thick,
clumsy neck may be good enough for
a hog, but it is out of place in a steer
The brisket should come down deep
and full and there should be great
width between the fore legs TO give
ample room for the lungs. Back of
the shoulders the body should be full,
the TlDS spring AuB well OUT anu LAc
back be broad, straight and smooth,
with no sinking between the chine
and rump. The hips should be straight
and the TANKS well filed and come
down low. The hide should be soft
and velvety; if thick and covered with
a good coat of hair. so much the better,
as it will help to keep the animal heat
and withstand the cold weather. The
thigh should be full and the hind legs
straight. All the legs should be short
and the steer stand squarely on them;
add broad loin and rump and a fine
tail and you have steer which will
take on fat readily and in short time
become source of pleasure and profit
to his owner.
In selecting sires for improving a
beef herd these same points should be
observed, for as like produces like"
judicious selection of the sire viii give
just the animal that feeders and butch
ers are constantly looking for and find
ing So difficult to secure.

Out in a Blizzard .

MIR. J. r. Blaize, an extensive real
estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa. mar
rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks of pneumonia while in the north
ern part of that state during recent
blizzard, says the Saturday Reciete
Mr.. Blaize had occasion to drive seve-
raj miles during the storm and was so
thoroughly chilled that he was unable
to get warm, and inside of an hour
after his return, he was threatened with
a severe case of pneumonia or lung
fever. Mr.. Blaizs sent TO the nearest
drug store and got bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy, of which, he
had often heard, and took number of
large doses. He says the effect was
wonderful and in short time he was
breathing quite easily. He kept on
taking the medicine and the next day
he was able to come TO Des Moines
Mr.. Blaize regards his cure as simply

can against them. If further support
is necessary, tie it TO the stakes. As
soon as the water is lowered in the
trough below the opening in the top of
the can little air is admitted and
water flows out to take the place of
that consumed. BY this means water
can be kept pure and wholesome, and
if the vessels be made of earthenware
and placed in the shade it will keep
cool for a long time. During warm
weather possibly as much disease in
the poultry yard originates from un-
clean drinking vessels as from any
one source, and a little time used in
constructing this fountain will be well

cato Operation.
1t certainly is an odd statement to
say that the microscope Is better than
the ear for measuring some sounds; but
1t is true In determining the pitch of
very high notes Mr.. f. Melde has
found that the ear cannot be depended
on, and he has therefore turned 70 the
microscope for aid.
Sound is phenomenon of vibration,
and the pitch of any musical note can
be determined II the sound wave cor
responding TO il is in any manner rem

Mr. Medic has solved the problem in
this wayi He covers a plate with thin
layer composed OF mixture of olive
oil and stearine, the surface Of which
is slightly ridged by rubbing it deli

ANGLICAN BISHOPS.

The ka Leo is undoubtedly right
that the acknowledgment of the
Republic Of Hawaii by Her
Majesty, Victoria for the British
Empire, will have but little, if any,
bearing upon the affairs of the
Anglican Church. 1t is also true
that, under the formal recognition
of the Republic of Hawaii, in the
carrying out of the international
P0licy, not eOHyte!y, as stated by Mr..
Bush, it makes little or no differ
ence to Republicans whether an
Anglican Bishop prays for Presi-
dent Dole or does not. If the
good Lord the Bishop can stand
it Republicans can.
Had not Republics heretofore, in
the history of the world, been able
to Withstand the neglect of both
Anglican Bishops and British polit-
ical institutions, together with that
very dangerous anti-Republican
principle of Cheap food and cheap
wages, inseparable from both
Church and State under British
Government, there would have
been even fewer Republics in the
Western Hemisphere than there
are at present.
Estimable gentleman as Bishop
Willis is held by the writer of this
article, still most persons will
admit the STAR but states a palpa-
BILE truth in saying that so far as being
an Anglican Bishop is concerned
neither his favor nor antipathy is of
much moment to the Republic.
While it would be hard to have less
and it certainly would not have more
influence upon the future of repub-
lican institutions in Hawaii than
exerted by Ka Lee in its unseen.
ingly uncalled for defense of an
Anglican Bishop for the express
purpose of slapping at the Re-
public. 1t is to be hoped the mem
beers of the English colony will as
cheerfully submit to the inevitable
in Hawaii as has Her Majesty
Queen Victoria, and that the just
claim that England is virtually a

republic will not be allowed to lapse
merely to give Mr.. Bush and his
imported English scribe a chance
to take out little local political
spite, which neither the English
nor the American residents, since
British recognition Of the Republic,
are apt to endorse.
AT the present writing it is still
an undecided question as to
whether the Anglican Bishop is
directly to blame for the use politi-
clans have made of his name as
an anti Republican lever. He may
have been indiscreet; most English
bishops are, in what they consider
their lust zeal for the joint inter
ests of church and State. 1t will
be a safe rule to follow here, how
ever, for both local Monarchists
aud Republicans, Englishmen as
we'll as Americans, that where the
formally expressed international
policy of the English church and
State seemingly conflict in their APP
plication to local affairs the will ex
pressed by the British Sovereign
shall prevail.

CHAUNCY DEPEW'S VIEWS.

The political views of Chauncey
NJ. Depew are always refreshing
even though not agreed with. In
reply to a request of the San Fran
cisco EramiHer, the only political
Chauncey' expressed himself as
follows: "outside of New York
City the results of the election
are entirely due to the empty din
ner pail, the industrial depression,
voting for a return of Harrison,
and the farmer protesting against
Canadian and European competition
under the Wilson bill. Within the
city limits it is a triumph for Park
hurst and reform; protest of
decency against the revela-
tons before the Lexow Com
mittee. 1t demonstrates that
the plain people will win in our
much-abused New York when they
are aroused, and that when aroused
the citizens of this town are for
good government every time.
Under the monarchical system
such sudden political reforms are
practically impossible, owing to the
rule that the Government and not
the people are expected to take the
initiative in matters of political
reform.
