Yachtsmen are not yet done talking

that the Defender "hogged the line" in
some of their races. thus forcing the
Vigilant to give way in order to avoid
running into the Defender. Whatever may
have been the actions of the Defender in
the races referred to, it is pretty certain
that she will not "hog the line" with the
Vaikyrie. for the reason that if she were
to do 80, the Valkyrie would Certainly cut
her down. The British boat is going to

and there has never been the slightest per-
ceptible dminution of the flow of water.
These reservoirs have many advantages.
In the western section of the state, besides
irrigating the farms, they serve as fish
tanks, from which the farmer may take
fresh fish for food. In the winter season
splendid crop of the clearest and purest
of ice is harvested. and an ice house is an
indispensable adjurct of a reservoir. Where
dairy farms are run in connection with the
irrigation plant, streams of water are run
II to the dairy, into which the milk crooks
are set. and much better results are OBJ
tanned than when ice is used, and vastly
etter than getting along In the old way.
They make fine swimming ponds also.

consisting of four commissioners. Judge
ST tton, secretary of the board, in his re-
pert to the convention stated that the ex-
periments thus far established show that
the practicability of the idea is taking hold
of the farmers, and the comparative cheap
ness of the reservoir plan recommends
itself on investigation.
In 1855 there were just twenty-six men
irrigating their farms. In 1898 the num-
her had increased to fifty-five; in 1894 to
224, an, the report in the convention show

DOGS AND TO SPARE.

A Man In Russia Who Has Thirty
Five Thousand of Them.
From the Buffalo Express.
Valdemsr Paulovitch, young Russian
who recently passed through Buffalo on his
way to visit friends in Cincinnati, told a
reporter of Gustav Jovanovitch, the Rus
sian. who owns more dogs than any other
man in the world Jovanovitch IS the cat
tie king of the Russian steppes. He owns
over 100000 sheep and that is why he has
SO many dogs. They are all of the shep-
herd breed, and number above $4,000. Jo-
vanoyitch's sheep and dogs have descended
to him from his forefathers, and, needless
to say. he is immensely rich. The dogs are
all intelligent creatures. though of hum
dred breeds, and all perform their Offices
as faithfully as the most petted shepherd
dog of the New York farms.
You can imagine that it costs n great
deal of money to feed such number Of
well kept and fed. else they would be forced
to turn on their focks. Jovanovitch has
great. barn like structures for the dogs
shelter and scores of men to care for them.
Great care of the brutes' health Is taken,
and dog rarely goes mad. The million
aire sheep owner buys dog biscuit by the
ton in France to guard against distemper.
Fleas, of course, are a necessity among
such great number of dogs, though sui
phur baths are provided for their exter-
mination. The f1eas, however, not only pay
the expenses of the baths, but put quite
bit of m )Eey into the pockets of the dog
keepers. In st. Petersburg there Is great
demand among the wealthy for performing
feas, but only the biggest and most intel1i-
gent are fitted for the work. OF course,
among $4,000 dogs one has great choice
of feas. and Markovitch, the head dog
keeper. has corner on the performing flea
market.
1.-THE big, muscular, well-groomed and
intelligent feas which he sends to the cap
ital are taught to perform little tricks. They
dance, too and have heard that one flea
who could skip a spider-web rope was sold
to one of the court ladies for 1000 rubles.
Performing feas. once taken from natures
hcme become very delicate, and have to be
housed and fed with the greatest care
1.-THE car once went to visit Jovanovitch
at his great house on the steppes, and
joked with him about his dogs, asking if he
was acquainted with all Of them. For
answer the sheep man led him to the door
and blew blast on his hunting horn. Then
from the long matched kennels that were
spread for quarter of mile around there
arose a howl in unison from each of the
35,UW dogs, and before 1t had died out
10000 feet were flying over the ground in
the direction of Jovanovitch and his royal
master. When they reached the place all
lay down obedently, so that the ground
was covered with a mat of dogs for a great
distance. Come, your majesty said Jo-
vanovftch, the ground Is damp but my
dogs have made you carpet And the
car and his friend walked out to the ken
nels over the strong brutes.

tion" concluded Mr.. Paulovitch, "and he

for one of the largest seed houses in the
world. From one little town car loads of
the threshed-out seeds are sent out every
DAY during the season, and hundreds Of
acres at a stretch are covered thick with
the melons. 1t Is a novel sight to see them,
and yet more novel to see the manner in
which the seed Is "churned'' out by the
barrel.
One Of the charming scenes as you pass
all else is bleak and BARE are the wonder
full fields of slfalfa, or 'Lrcerne" clover,
to which the W estern farmer is more large
ly each year pinning his faith. Three fully
matured crops of alfalfa are cut each sea-
son. and no seeding is ever necessary after
the first crop Is cut. With irrigation this
clover yields four splendid crops, averag-
ing four and five tons to the acre, but it
Is essentially dry-weather grass. B.

Men are beginning to learn that 1t is sense

which fail when the rains do, and which
sink away when brassy skies and molten
suns kiss everything into a white heat.
The sweet waters Of these strange SUBJ
terranean rivers, which flow unchecked
through altering sands. are to be harness.
ed and made to do the work designed by
nature. To accomplish this scientifically
has been the earnest study of hundreds of
practical farmers in the arid and semi
arid regions of the country, and 1t is SUBJ
stantially admitted that that idea of sub
irrigation crystalized first in Kansas.
Irrigation Conventions.
Since 1891 the subject of irrigation has
become an international one. The first
international irrigation convention was
held in Salt Lake City in October Of that
year. Seventeen states of the Union sent
large delegations, and the convention was
all that was hoped for 1t in the way of
developing ideas and discussing methods
and machinery for agriculture in arid re-
gions. The delegates were taken over the
fertile Salt Lake valley and shown what
the Mormons had accomplished by .1eans
of irrigation.
This practical lesson in irrigation was
IOuO1eu up ny d convention at LUIS tAuSo-
les, Cal. in 1893, where the delegates had
a splendid opportunity to judge of what
might be done by scientific irrigation as
they passed through the orchards and vine
yards, orange groves and flower gardens
growing in the midst of rocky aridty and
surrounded by that abomination of desola-
tion-the alkali deserts. Again, in 1891, the
convention went to an irrigated country,
finding in and about Denver just what was
wanted for practical object lesson of the
advantages of irrigation. This year they
went right into the heart of the arid re-
gion of the United States. and held their
convention in Albuquerque, N. NJ, the lat
ter part of September, spending days of
delight after the convention closed in Wis
itng the old irrigated Mission gardens at
Santa Fe, whose adobe buildings look as
though they might antedate the food. and

How to Run a Furnace Fire.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The furnace fire should be shaken down
and raked perfectly clear in the morning.
A few shovelfuls of coal should be put on.
and all the draughts opened. The ashes
should tfen be taken up. AS soon as the
coal begins to burn well and the fire looks
clear at the bottom, put in enough coal to
come almost to the top of the f1repot. Keep
the draughts open until all tho gas has
burned off; then close them, and later. If
the fire be too hot. open the checks. Ex-
cept in extremely cold weather, this is all
the attention that ought to be necessary
through the day. The fire must be raked
down and fresh coal or cinders put on in
the evening, but d small amount of coal
will answer for the night, unless the
draughts have been open the greater part
of the day.
On an extremely cold day 1t may be nee
essary to have the draughts open part
of the time and SOME coal put on at noon.
