pOGolE'S COSTLY MEAL.

1t Costs It's Owner One Hundred
Francs and u Lawsuit.
The complainant in recent law suit
ut Narbonne, France, made oath that he
was one day dining on the terrace" or
open air space fronting on the sidewalk,
where French people are won't to take
their meals in summer. He had just be-
gun to eat his soup when it occurred
to him to count some money that he
had short time before received. In
counting it he accidentally let fall a
100-franc bank note into his soup.
Instantly he fished it out of the plate
with his fork and sent the soup away;
but the bank note was saturated and
he laid it down on the tablecloth to dry.
He was going on with his meal.when
a little gust of wind blew the bill off
the table. Its owner jumped after it,
but a wandering dog which had been
hungrily watching the meal was quick
er than he, and seized it. The taste of
the soup on the paper made it an edible
thing to the animal, and it was swal-
lowed in an instant.
And then the man who owned the bill
was, though bursting with rage, re-
duced to the humiliation and insin-
cerity of saying: Good doggie! Come
here, nice doggie," and to the employ
ment of smiles and wheedling ways, in
order to get near enough to the animal
to read the name engraved on his col
lar. But he succeeded, and when he
had made note of the name. he as
sisted the good doggies" rapid de-
parture.
Next he brought a suit against the
man who owned the dog for the resti-
tuition of the 100 francs; and the court
at Narbonne, after hearing the evi'
dence and the pleas at great length, de-
cided that the owner of the dog must
pay the other man the money.

WATCH YOUR CALVES.
Feed Them Well to obtain sRtisfnc-

tory Results Quickly.
The calf's foot is golden now. Calves
which went begging for buyers a few
years ago are now worth ten dollars
almost as soon as they are dropped.
There is great shortage of feeding
steers all over the corn and grass states.
This shortage is temporarily supplied
by the enormous importations from
every point in the country. 1t is, how
ever, only shifting of cattle from one
point to another, and there is no addi-
tion made to the cattle stock by such a
movement, except to the extent that
they come from Canada, and even this
is no real addition, for the reason that
the beef from these cattle is supplied
in the United States instead of Canada,
and has no effect whatever on the beef
markets of the world. Any increase
of cattle stock must come through the
growing of calves, and the farmer has
dead sure market at profitable price
for his calves for year or two to come.
Hence, the calf should be watched not
for the sake of watching and thinking
of the pleasing prospect of good price,
thrifty growth and as good g form as
possible, for the better the form the
higher the price per pound it will bring,
and the larger the calf the greater num-
| Der of pounds there is to sell at a price
fixed by the quality. How to feed that
| calf to produce the best results is one
of the important questions just now
Here, as in everything else, it pays to
take lessons from nature. Dame Ma.
ture feeds the calf often, feeds the milk
sweet and feeds it warm. The calf that
has bellyful of cold milk in the morn.
ing and another at night, with no drink
during the day, and is exposed to the
hot sun, will not bring big price.
Nature feeds the calf balanced ra
ton. If it is fed skim-milk that ration
is unbalanced by the withdrawal of the
butter fat, and this must be supplied il
somo way. The cheapest substitute fo,
the first few weeks is jelly made by
boiling oil meal. After the first three
or four weeks oat meal should be sub
stituted gradually, and corn meal al
gradually substituted, in part at least
for the oats. Corn at IL cents per bush
ell, and oats at the same price, will
| furnish the proper balance at mucl
lower rate than butter fat. There are
thousand little things in connection
with calf growing that can be learne,
only by experience, but the man VIII,
observes, thinks, reads and practice
will very soon catch on and become al
expert. There is very solid bottom
under this business now, and the farm,
er that has strain of native cattle com
bining milk and beef forms is the ma
who can fill the demand to the best ad
vantage.-Journal of Agriculture.

never lived. Often it takes less than
80 steps day, and it will be month or
more in going a mile. 1t is not neces-
sary for it to go any faster, because it
lives in the trees and its food of leaves
and soft twigs is always within easy
reach. Sloths have three toes on each
foot, and each toe bears strong hooked
claw. When the sloth moves he SIM
ply hooks the claws over a limb and
crawls about from tree to tree. In this
position he can sleep hours at time.
When little sloth is born it uses it's
mother for a hammock until it is big
enough to climb itself.
The sloth grows to be about two feet
long It's hair is wiry and coarse and
it has no tail to speak of, The natives
say that it cannot feelgpain, and they
prove what they say by showing how
the sloth will roll itself up and deliber-
itely fall out of tall tree in order to
save climbing down. Pretty lazy, isn't

SOME HARD FACTS.
The Road Problem Viewed from n
Strictly Practical Standpoint.

Some of our contemporaries seem to
take for granted that "better roads"
necessarily implies paved roads, rolled
by wagon tires at least six inches wide,
and that ii is a choice between such
Ionds and nothing worthy the name of
road improvement. This we consider
mistaken and somewhat unfortunate
view of the situation. If we are to have
nothing better than wind work till the
general construction of paved roads
becomes n possibility in country dis
tricts the present generation will not
live to see better average country roads
than we have now. No one understands
better than the farmers themselves that
they are not to build hard roads, partic-
ularly in districts remote from rock
and gravel supplies, and capitalists are
not likely to do the work for them.
The utilization of convict labor ON the
roads should result in considerable
increase in hard-road mileage, but such
increase would be comparatively slow
and its effect upon the general traffic
of the country hardly noticeable for
many years. In the meantime we
should make better use of the means at
hand. AS we remarked some time since
with properly adjusted cash system in
force and the improved road machinery
now available, we should have much
better earth roads, and at no greater
cost to the people than now.-Agricul-
tural Epitomist.

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.
A CURIOUS THING.

Sunbeam came to my house one day
"1s there any place here for shadows to
hide?
They tell me that shadows are cold and
i gray;
But before can catch them they run away,
If find one, I'll cheer him up" he cried.
He searched about through the great
big house,
A dear little fellow, warm and bright
In closets, In corners, in mammals hair
In grandpa's face, and oh, everywhere!
But wherever he went 1t was only light.
Now Love looked into my house that day
Gould Hate in here be hiding his head?
They tell me that Hate is ugly and bad
Perhaps, IL we found him, we'd make him
glad.
oh, please may look and try?" he said
Love met Sunbeam hunting about
Have you found your shadows, friend
"a Sunbeam?"-"Nay,
Not l." said Sunbeam; they don't live
here"
''Nor Hate" said Love; ''for this house is
Let's look for place to abide alway"
Sweetheart Lucy came running In,
Bright as n robin just out of bed
Sunbeam sprang to her eyes so brown;
Love in her warm heart nestled down
We've the incest place in the world!'
they said.
Now the curious thing, which 1 haven't
told,
Is something 1 never could quite make
For never shadow can show his head,
And Hate, think, must be really dead,
When my little Lucy is playing about.
