1t has been well attested that bean
straw is valuable food for sheep and
that they are fond of il. The bean,
like clover, is leguminous plant, and
many farmers say that the straw,
though coarse and harsh, has nearly
AZ nipch nutrition as clover hay. II
makes very rich manure when fed to
either sheep or cows. This is shown
by IFS rotting very fast when piled,
and giving off the strong smell of am
tnonia, which comes from feeding any
manure rich I'm nitrogenOus nutrition.

a New Yorker Commanded n British Ship
In the RairIe of the Nile.


In the Battle of the Nile.
The fifth ship was the Theseus, Cap
tain Ralph Willett Miller. This gentle
man, whom after his premature death
Nelson styled "the only truly yirtuous
man ] ever knew, was by birth New
Yorker, whose family had heen loyalists
during the American Revolution. A let
ter from him 10 his wife gives an ac-
count of the fight which is at once
among the most vivid and from the
professional standpoint the most salts
factory of those which have been trans
mitted to u.s. OF the Theseus' entrance
into the battle he says:
In running along the enemy's line
in the wake Of the Jealous and Goliath,
observed their shot sweep Just over us.
And knowing well that at such mo-
ment Frenchmen would not have COOL
ness enough 10 change their elevation,
| closed them suddenly, and, running
under the arch of their shot, reserved
my fire, every gun being loaded with
two and some with three round shot,
until / had the Guerrier's masts in a
line and her jibboom about six feet clear
of our rigging. We then opened with
such effect that a second breath could
not be drawn before her main and miz-
gen masts were also gone. THIS was pre-
cisely at sunset. or A minutes past 6.
Then passing between her and the Zeal
Gus and as close as possible round the
OFF side of the Goliath, we anchored by
the stern exactly in line with her and
abreast the SpaTtiate. We had not been
many minutes in action with the Spar
tiate when we observed one Of our ships
land soon after knew her TO be the Van
guard, place herself so directly opposite
TO rs on the outside Of her tina; desist-
ed firing on her, that l might not dc
mischief to our friends, and directed ev
cry gun before the mainmast ON the
Aquilon Fourth French} and all abaft
it on the Conquerant, giving up my
proper bird TO the admiral. -" Nelson

Primitive Surgery.

II is difficult az this day to realize the
horrors Of surgical operation before
the discovery Of aB9sthesia. The sur
geon's knife was necessarily pitiless,
and the victim could only writhe and
scream unGer the torture The horror Of
an operation, even TO a hero, may be
better understood by story of Nelson,
included in a paper by Dr.. John Ash
hurst ON Surgery Before the Days OF
AnGsthetics, 4" published in the Phila-
delphia Record:
No braver or more gallant gentleman
ever lived than Admiral Viscount Mel
son, and after his right elbow had been
shattered by French bullet il the as
sault at Tenerife he manifested the ut
most courage, refusing to be taken TO
the nearest ship lest the sight of his in
jury should alarm the wife of fellow
officer whose own fate was uncertain.
When his own ship was reached, he
climbed up its side without assistance,
saying:
Tell the surgeon to make haste and
get his instruments. know must lose
my right arm, SO the sooner it is off the
better.
''He underwent the amputaion, " SO
says a private letter of one Of his mid
shipmen, with the same firInness and
courage that have always marked his
character
And vet so painfully was Nelson
affected by the coldness Of the operator {
knife that when next going into action
at the famous battle of the Nile he gave
standing orders 10 his surgeons that hot
water should always be kept in readi'
ness during an engagement, so that II
another operation should be required be
might at least have the poor comfort Of
being cut with warm instruments.

tramps among the neighbors in that
vicinity
About two weeks ago he left home, and
nothing strange was thought.of his abb
sence till within the last few days. His
wife became worried. and the neighbors
got I'D a searching party, who found the
body in Perry Furbush's pasture about
ten rods from the highway. The body
was discovered by Eva Carr. 1t was lying
face down among the rocks, badly decom-
posed, but easily identified from the fact
that the heel of his left boot was built up,
owing to crippled leg.
The deceased was last seen by Frank
Hanson on July 7ths and it is supposed
that he. was on his way home and took a
short cut across the pasture, when he was
overcome by the heat, or heart disease
caused him to fall among the rocks.
