don (Great Northern.) 1t shows
the time on two faces, six feet in
diameter, incased in iron drums
fixed on the top of a lattice girder
bridge, enabling the time to be seen
from either end Of the platform. The
motion works in the two drums are
connected with the clock by means
of connecting rods upwards of forty
feet in length, in iron tubing. The
clock movement has been fitted up
inside the building. The dials are
of opal glass, illuminated by electric

SteaIing

From the st. Louis Journal Of Agriculture.
In scanning the daily papers we
see accounts every few days of boys
and young men being shot while
stealing watermelons. There seems
to be an idea entertained by this
class of people that stealing a water.
melon is not a crime, but, if not
caught, only a good joke. 1t seems
a little strange that such an idea
should prevail since the watermelon
is an article of commerce and is pro-
duced for the profit that may be
gotten out of it. We think the chief
reason of this is a habit a great
many men have of relating the
pranks they played on some ones
watermelon patch in their boyhood
days. We have also heard public
speakers relate such pranks and
treat them as only a joke. When
boys hear their fathers and their
older friends and public speakers
all treat such things lightly they
naturally conclude it's no harm,
and they must have fun too.
But this is wrong. He who steals
watermelons is just as much a thief
as he who steals money. The boy
may think it a great joke to go into
n mans melon patch and take a
half dozen of his best melons; but
it doesn't seem much like a joke to
the poor man vino has labored hard
to produce them and who is depend
ing OH them for a little OF the much
needed cash. 1t is The same to him
as if he had been robbed of their
equivalent in cash, and from a
moral view it is just as much a
crime as if one had stolen that much
money from his pocket.
Parents should be very careful to
teach their children to discriminate
between right and wrong in little
things; for little things in childhood
lead to great things in manhood.
We hope that every boy who reads
this may wisely decide to choose the
right side, and if the boys do this
they will never be found guilty of
entering another persons melon
patch without permission.

Houck. the Noted Turr outiaw.

Editorial in Clark s Horse Review, Chicago.
The most persistent ringer on
the trotting turf is A. S. Houck,
owner Of L%everone, 2:16, and
central figure in the attempted
steal in the 800 pace at Dallas,
Texas, last fall. At that time
Houck was quickly set over the
fence and the harness world believed
it had seen the last of him. But
the monumental assurance of the
fellow has again brought him to the
surface, this time at Mexico, Mo-,
where he entered Leverone as Rich
ard w, but vas detected before he
had landed his game. The story
has already been told in the Review
and we refer to it again because the
Mexico association took no action
at law to punish Houck, and be-
cause turf papers printed in Missou-
ri are scolding the dead and gone
Legislature Of 1928 for ~neglecting
to pass the anti-ringer law which it
had under consideration. Such
talk is idle. We are assured by
lawyers of high standing that the
broad and sweeping law of Missouri
in relation to false pretense and
fraud in an attempt to obtain money
covers all such cases as that o.
Houck and that under it he can be
adequately punished.
The statute books OF every state
are already burdened, giving courts
entirely too much to do in the way
of Interpretation, and it would
be we'll to apply the laws we have
rather than to ask for special legis.
lation. 1t is not too late to reach
outlaw Houck. The grand jury o
Audrain County, in which Mexico
is situated, will promptly indie
Houck on presentation OF prope
testimony. His punishment will b.
made to fit the crime at the conclus
ion of his trial.

Agricultural Notes.

From the st. Louis Journal of Agriculture.
Each field is adapted to some
special crop. Study the soil and
the needs OF the crop.
Better hire a little more help than
to keep the boys out of school to
help cut up or gather corn.
If you are not able to build a first
class house to shelter your ma
chinery, build a cheap one. By all
means protect machinery from the
weather.
Nothing adds more to the looks
of the home than moving down the
weeds about the outhouses, the
barn lot, and along the roadside
near the house.
To preserve the fertility of the
soil, says the National Stockman,
three methods are being practiced
by our best farmers, viz: Rotation
of crops, application of commercial
fertilizers and the use of barnyard
manure.
7. B. Terry this year raised on
an average Ala bushels of wheat
per acre. Clover aud tillage, he
says, did it. No manure or fertil-
izers were put on the field. He
screens and grades his seed wheat,
and sows only the plumpest grains.
A writer thinks that the farmer
who buys nothing which he can
produce, should be on the high road
to success. 1t is not so much the
amount of money we a get in, as
is the facualty of keeping the ex-
penses down, that makes the profit
in all cases.
The work of a thoroughly pro.
gressive farmer, says an exchange,
includes not only agriculture prop
er, but stock raising and horticul-
ture. This fact by itself is enough
to show that the farmer should be
a literally educated man. 1t re-
quires a good deal of knowledge to
handle properly all the things that
come under these headings.

The Hackam nine, composed of the
nine sons of Mr.. Kirk Hackam,
ranging from % years of age down
to 8 years, played the Dog Town
nine, five miles west OF Columbia,
yesterday, gaining a complete vic
tory over the boys from Huntsdale
by a large score. The Hackam
nine has been famous aver since
its youngest member vas old enough
to play ball and the victory was a
most pleasing triumph to the boys.
The average age of the Hacamk
nine is but fifteen years and their
weight is 100 pounds. The Hunts
dale boys averaged g years and
average weight about no pounds.
Mr.. Hackam boldly challenges any
family nine in this country to a

AAoA< EAO 1Rh6AS ~ 49,

West Ruled Off Mt South Side.

from the GiODe-Den1ocrat-
John l.. West was ruled off al
South Side last night after a very
funny dialogue with Judge Swigert.
1t seems that Mr.. West owns Billy
Roller and Bob Miller. Recently
Jockey McFadden rode and won on
Bob Miller. Mr.. West refused to
pay him his fee. Tonight Billy
Roller won, and McFadden put in a
bill for the amount. Judge Swigert
asked Mr.. West why he refused to
pay the bill. He replied:
"When McFadden rode Bob Mil
Ter he agreed to pull him, but in
stead rode him out, and won on
him."
Judge Swigert evidently believed
in upholding the Jockeys conduc,
in the matter, and promptly ruled
off Mr.. West and both his horses.

Hungary is about TO hold an ex-
hibition of historical relics to cele-

Behanzin's crown, from Dahomey,

illogical collection in the Louvre. II
is of FURNISHED copper, garnished

Recent explorations at the ancient
temple of Anxur, near Terracina, on
the Italian coast, have brought to
light Il natural conduit stretching
through the rock, through which a
current of air passes. 1t is thought
that the draught turned the leaves
of the Sibylline books for the oracle.
Children's toys in lead, tables, chairs
and candelabra have also been found
there.
A curious feature OF Chinese coins,
the hallmark, appears to have orig.
mated in an accident very character
istic of China. In the time of Queen
Wentek a model in wax of a pro-
posed coin was brought for her
Majesty's inspection. In taking hold
of it she left on it the impression of
one nail, and the impression has in
consequence been a marked charac-
t~eristic of Chinese coins for hundreds
| of wears.
