Probably a Sympathetic Strike.

ALTOONA, Pa, July 3.-Up to the
present time the miners of the Cambria
and Clearfield region have made no
declaration regarding the strike ordered
by the executive committee of the union
mineworkers. If the miners in this
region should strike, it would merely be
a sympathetic strike.

BRAN A VALUABLE FOOD.

Bran is much more highly theught
Of as feed than 1t used to be. But 1t
has its limitations and should not be
relied upon entirely when fed alone. 1t
Is an excellent feed to give to animals
that have surfeit Of corn, and should
always form part Of the ration or
fattening sheep.
Fine wheat middlings have all or
the excellencies of bran, and win be
eaten in greater quantities by fatten-
ing hogs. The bran and wheat mid
dlings furnish a greater proportion OF
albumlnoids than corn has, and there
fore supplement its deficiencies.
Wheat bran is an excellent alternative
for horses fed on timothy hay in win
ter. 1t will keep their digestion good
and will be all the better If a table
spoonful of old process oil meal is ad-
ded to each mess. Wheat middlings
are not as laxative as bran, and are
better therefore for horses that have
to work hard, though both the bran
and middlings contain much OF the
nutriment that builds up bone and
muscle and Increases strength.-Coi

A KES1UcKlANss LONG BEARD.
Eight Feet OF Hirsute Adjournment
and Stin Growing.

Pulaski County, Kentucky, has q
citizen who rejoices in beard eight
feet long and ttill growing. Uncle
Billy Dryden is his name, and since be
was quite young man be hiss had q
heavy growth of hair all over his face.
1t is not fashionable to shave up in
the mountains where Uncle Billy lives,
and most>of the men outside of the
towns allow their faces to appear as
nature intended. There are no bar
bers any nearer than Somerset, the
county seat, and if there were no one
would be likely to patronize him.
Occasionally when the growth gets too
thick some men thin their boards out
a little with the scissors; butthis con-
cession to civilization is not universal.
Some years ago Uncle Billy was
noted as having the longest and thick
est beard in the county. He got to
be proud of it, and since then be has
not allowed steel, whether razor OF
shears, to come betwixt the wind and
his lylocks.
Now Uncle Billy has got beard foi

Water Born Diseases.

There are and have been filters ana
filters, many of them utterly worth
less, and most of them but poor
apology for the work they claim to do.
What is known as the Pastenr system
is highly spoken Of, as it is conclusive
ly proven that many contagious dis
eases have been almost il not alto
gether checked by its use. In India,
where cholera has aourished for many
years, the health OF the inhabitants
hos improved wonderfully and the
death rate has decreased since the Pas.
teur filter his been introduced. The
filter plant, while it is not especially
complicated, is complete and thor.
oueh. The minutest flaw in the pipes
and cells can be Immediately detected,
as compressed air fills certain por.
tiops OF the pipes during the clearing.
Acidulated water is driven through
the cells, removing oil deposits and
sterDizing the entire system. One
man is able to manage n plant oil

THE PIONEER.

Theodore Roosevelt emphasizes the
fact that the movement of population
to the West from New England did
not begin to be appreciable until after
the War of 1912. A famous settlement.
like that of Marietta, only proves the
rule. In the earlier period the settlers
were from the Southern Statesmen
from the prosperous class Of lowiand
planters, but from the hardy men or
the hills and mountains who had really
been pioneers all their lives as their
fathers had been before them. In Dlooa
and in beliefs these people We're more
nearly allied to the Northerners than
they were to the Southern planters.
The people of the Northern and Ea1.-
ern States who went West in those
DAYS were as likely to settle in Ken
lucky as in Ohio, and they migrated as
. readily Ito Tennessee and Mississippi
as to Indiana" Thus it came about
that ''in Kentucky and Tennessee, ID
Indiana and Mississippi, the settlers
were of the same quality. They pos
sessed Of the same virtues and the same
shortcomings, the same ideals and the
same practices" The investigator who
desires to know what the average was
IN pioneer life-Mr. Roosevelt does not
say this. but it is true-need only make
tour among the mountains from the
Potomac to the southernmost foothills
of the Alleghanies and the Blue Ridge.
He will find there the words ard
phrases still in use which made the
speech of early Kentucky and Ohio in
teresting, before the West, as well rs
the East, fell to the dead level OF the
school-bock dialect There are places
where these pecullarities linger even
yet, Just as there are bits of oak ant
beech forest more than usually expan
sive where q few years ago, even II
Central Ohio, q cabin could be fount
newly built, the ends of the logs shin
ing with the polish given them by
sharp axe, and the earth floor within
more primitive than the puncheon
beaten down to the consistency o.
pressed brick. 1t is the fashion will
politicians and novel writers OF tht
present day to depreciate these noun
taineers. They settle their feuds will
the rifle, they make Illicit whiskey, ant
in spite OF their Scotch-Irish Presby
terrain origin they are addicted to
very picturesque profanity. But the.
are to this day and they always vii
be-subject to the rivalry of the Rock.
Mountains in centuries to come-th
