which has been used as q gambrel. The
carcass is raised to proper height,

brought to the left of the pulley, the
rope rearranged, and the same opera
ton repeated for the second animal.

Simply Indispensable for tho Hauling Of
Heavy Animals.
"A convenient device for hanging
hogs is a valuable assistant in the hand
ing OF heavy animals. The accom-
pany'ng illustration represents the
principal parts of such continuance.
Stout posts "a and b., seven or eight
inches square, are firmly fixed in tho
ground about 16 inches apart, and
stand ten feet or more in height. These
arc connected above by hardwood
beam (c), three inches thick and ten
inches in depth, mortised into the posts
end held by pins or bolts. Att, near the
post b, and directly over the platform
upon which the hog has been made
ready for hanging, small pulley is
suspended from the beam, using for
this purpose an eye bolt passing
through the beam but not above it. The
frame of this pulley should be large
enough that the hook on the end of the
rope may be readily put through it or
removed. A number of carriages sim
liar to are made to run on the beam.
They consist of hardwood roller four
inches in diameter and of about the
same length, from which hangs a long
iron loop inclosing the beam. This loop
should be wide enough below, and ex-
tend downward far enough that the
carriage may pass to the pulley at f.
From the loop hangs a chain about IS
inches in length. Through the post a
an opening is cut just below the beam,
and pulley C1) inserted, over which
the rope is carried down to windlass
fixed on the post few feet from the
ground. A hanger Q) is provided for
each carriage. In this different length
OF stick may be used us q "spreader,"
thus adapting it to larger or smaller
animals.
In working this device all the car
riages to be used are transferred to the
right end Of the beam except one,

Leg Weakness. in Fnwls.

During this season there have been a

ted one the direction of rotation. It
will be seen that as each set of sails
come into the right position for work
they slow down" gently against the
arm which supports them and carry
Hit with them half way around the cir

the free lateral edge Of each and swings
them all out backward, SO that they
offer no resistance as the arm comes
up into the wind again. AS yet, DR..
Shaw has not yet completed his model,
but he believes that there will be no

swing back. Should there be trouble
of this kind, however, he would inter-
pose spring buffers to lessen the noise
and destructive action consequent upon
the battering of his shutters. An auto

provided with means for keeping their

THE PACE THAT KILLS.

From the Cincinnati ENQUIRER.

The American people live to Q fast, eat too
fast and drink too fast. This has brought
upon many of us train of nervous and
stomach orders that are very difficult to
manage. Investigation and chemical anal

help those suffering from such ills has re-

dyspepsia which took the form of continu-
Gus constipation, and strangely enough,
Mr.. Owens testified to the merits of Pink
Pills, in a most enthusiastic way, and said
to the Enquirer reporter,
II am glad to say anything can for DR..
Williams Pink Pills, because they did me

When appealed to Mrs. Owens answered ::
'"rhat is right. l found that it was a great
medicine, so easy to take and SO quick and

Mr.. Owens continued: II believe that
| these pills are also good for nervousness.
When had my stomach troubles l was

with the dyspepsia. The Pink Pills were
| all that were claimed for them. You can
make any use OF this testimonial that you
see fit.'

time an employee of the Commercial Gazette.

Pink Pills and her host OF lady friends can
verify her good opinion of this wonderful

unanimous as to the excellencies of Pink
Pills as the Enquirer has found it to be
there is certainly good reason to believe all

Single or Separate Houses.

A long house, with apartments all
under one roof, with wide passage
way, is avery convenient arrangement
for large flock (thst is. each flock to
have house separated from the 9TH
ers) also possesses some advantages If
lice get into a large house it will not
only be more difficult to rid the prem
ises of them, but the attack upon the
flock will necessarily cause all the 9TH
ers to be liable. With the single house
plan the lice can more easily be sub
dued, as one may contain lice while
the others are exempt. We call atten-
ton to this matter because. there is
something else to consider in poultry
house other than it's arrangement, and
that is it's liability to attack from YER

A Large CocOanut Plantation.

A Yucatan correspondent of the
Philadelphia Record describes large
cocoanut plantation of New England
mar down there. "On tract OF 1000
acres purchased from the Government
at the rate of four cents per acre) he
has set ont 10000 trees and expects
in due time to make princely fortune
therefrom. 1t requires six years for
the trees to begin to yield returns,
and it is estimated that in ten years
from the time of planting the grove
will be worth at least 81, 1000, 900, or
which it will yield an annual income
of ten per cent. A full grown cocoa
nut tree will mature from sixty to 100
nuts every year. Another American
is experimenting in this neighborhood
on ramie, or vegetable silk, and de-
clares that its cultivation is to become
an important factor in cloth making
materials. Ramie is member of the
bromelia family, here known as silk
grass, and grows wild in the hot sands
of the coast. To-day it is worth 95
cents pound in Manchester, Eng
land, while the demand for it is inn

therefore, entitled to some considera-
ton, for he approached the hotel as if
desirous of being captured.
When chased he did not run away,
but hid in clump of bushes and re-
NAMED there until his captor picked
him up. Since then he has become
very tame, but at no time did the little
fellow evince any great amount of
fear.
The body of the rabbit is just like
that of any other cotton-tail, and SO is
his head. The fur is the same, and
the animal seems to be about the size
of other members of the same species.
But he has only one ear, and this gives
him an uncanny appearance. He has
been dubbed the "unicorn rabbit"

cure its favorite food, wild sea fowl.
Sea gulls are so wild that it is diff
cult even for man to get within gun
shot of one. The seal seems to realize
that il would be waste of time to at
tempt to crawl mp upon the gulls as
they rest upon the water and catch
them unawares. So he watches until
the gulls are soaring slowly through
the air close to the waves. Then the
seal dives into the sea and swims un-
derneath the water for some distance.
By the time he has managed to swim
a hundred feet the gull has forgotten
the presence of its enemy. This gives
the seal his opportunity. He eau
tiously rises to the surface of the
water at some distance from the POINT
at which he dived, and allows merely
the tip of his great nose to appear
above the water.
Remaining in this position, he gives
his enormous body a rotary motion so
that his nose describes circle on the
surface of the ocean. He does this so
skilfully that to the gull his nose looks
like water bug at play. This catches
the gull's eye, and it at once darts
down with the speed of an arrow, aim
ing straight for the little dot. The
seal sees it coming and sinks few
inches, and as the gull strikes the
water with tremendous force, the
seals jaws close upward and the gull
disappears.
