during the campaign that with the

A Farm Where Snails Arc Raised.

Over in Switzerland tile people are
very fond of snails-almtst as fond as
the American boy is of mince pie. II
long ago became impossible for even
sharp eyed snail hunters to find all the
snails they could sell, and so some of the
clever Swiss have started snail farms.
AS you may imagine. they are odd
places, only a few rods square and di-
vided into small parts, separated by
fences about two feet high, with nails
along the top to prevent the snails from
running away. Little arbors Of moss are
provided for the snails as shelter from
the sun, fo- snails do not like the sun.
If there is not lime or chalk in the earth
of the farm, the farmer sprinkles it
about Snails eat cabbage, salad, nettles
and dandelion. They seem to be most
hungry after rain.
The harvest time for snails is the lat
ter part of August or the first of Septem-
Der. Then the snails are sorted ont.
Those having round white houses are
considered fat and are the most valua.
BILE. They are packed in boxes contain
ing soft hay for shipment, and they sell
for high prices. -Chicago Record.

ACCORDING to the unwritten law
OF congress, that from which the
public forms its general impression.
the senate is regarded as the conserv-
alive body OF congress, the balance
wheel so to speak. In the handling
of the Cuban affair, however, all the
radicalism and jingoism and ratified
heated policy has been shown in the
upper branch, while the house of
representative has evinced the more
thoughtful digniiied view of the mat
ter. The senators are acting like a
lot OF school boys, with our own be-
loved Shelby one Of the biggest toads

SENATOR SHERMAN, chairman Of
the republican caucus, has appointed
Senators Walcott, OF Colorado; Hoar,
of Massachusetts,; Chandler, of New
Hampshire, Carter, Of Montana, and
Gear, of Iowa, a committee on a BIZ
metallic conference. Each one of
the members has expressed himself
as being in favor of free coinage. Is
this done, asks the Freeport Bulle-
tin, wholly in the interest of the
rich silver mine owners of which we
heard so much about less than two
months ago?
