4 Mystery Solved.

y good story is told among the Chi
nesc of the dowager empress and the
plague. In her palace are kept CON
stantly burning eighteen lamps, repre-
sentiug the eighteen provinces of
China. One of these lamps burned
badly, so the chief imperial astronomer
was summoned. After consulting the
archives he decided that the lamp rep
resented the province of Canton and
that the god of pcstilcncc had deter
mined to atllict it. After many prayers
and entreaties the god promised to di-
vide the mortality between people and
rats. Thus the frightful mortality of
human beings and rats in Canton Mst
summer is explained.

Terry, in his "A Il c Of Potato Culture"
Il think we handle our crop for less
than half what it used to cost: us before
We got these boxes made. Our boxes
are IL inches by Is and IL deep, all in
side measures. They We're made a lit
tie deeper to allow for shrinkage. The
sides and bottoms are made of three
eighths stuff, and the ends of five
eighths. Hand-holcs are cut in the
ends. d.
1.-The upper corners are bound with
galvanized hoop iron to make them
strong. The price paid for them was
from $cc5 to $50 a hundred at a box fac.
tory. Some light wood should be used,
of course, so as to make them as light as
possible. They need not weigh more
than 6 or I pounds. Early in the sea

their prey, and which should be encour,
aged rather than destroyed.
