Big Telegraph Cable Contract.

The largest telephone cable contract
ever given is reported from st. Louis
as result OF the telephone wires being
placed under ground in that city. The
statement that the contract covers $780,
300 feet Of cable containing fully l00,-
300, 900 feet OF No. 10 B. & S. copper
wire, 1900. 900 pounds Of lead casing
and thousands of pounds of paper
Insulation can only be appreciated
by comparisons. Six hundred and
ifty thousand feet equals about
1874 miles, or about the distance
from New York along the coast
TO Cape May, or the very end Of New
Jersey. The small wires. ii spliced to-
yether, would reach nearly half round
The earth, the total length being IS, 90c
miles. One thousand tons of lead
would equal in weight a solid prism Of
;astiron ten feet square and 40 feet

Among the Poultry.

-
Have troughs In which to feed all
soft feed.
II your hens lay soft-shelled eggs
they need more lime.
The sitting hen now has the floor.
Take care of her.
Is there not room for a flock of geese
on your farm? Study the situation.
A warm feed for breakfast goes a
long way in inducing hens TO lay now.
When the combs and wattles Of the
fowls are of bright red color II indi-
Gates a condition of health.
When the manure is hard and por-
ton is white, 1t indicates healthy con
dltlon Of the digestive organs.
When the fowls are busy scratching,
the hens laying and singing and the
cocks growing, these are signs OF good
health.
When YOU can enter the hen house
after dark and hear no wheeling II
proves there are not any roupy fowls
In the flock.
A generous application Of lime on the
chicken yard and in the sheds and runs
is now In order. 1t may prove a cheap
prevention of disease.
When fowls are judiciously fed. made
TO take exercise. and their quarters
kent clean and free from lice. there Is
comparatively no trouble with sick
ness, except In cases Of contagion.

Sheep Among Growing Corn.

1t is the practice Of good farmers
now to cultivate both corn and pota-
toes much longer than used to be
thought advisable. The reason is that
the modern cultivation is shallow and
does not disturb the roots. But where
a piece OF either corn or potatoes is
weedy few sheep may be put into the
field after midsummer with no dan
ger whatever that they will injure the
crop. Almost any other stock will at
tack both corn and either the potato
tops or roots. Sheep will not eat either.
Usually only the ram was put in some
time in July. and was not taken out
until the corn was ready to harvest.
After corn is cut sheep will attack the
corn ears. While it stands they seldom
do this.

From this date the age is guessed at by
the amount of wear on the grinders.


So far as possible the farmer ought
TO have sod land on which to grow all
hoed crops. He cannot usually make
nearly enough manure to fertilize all
that he wants to plant to corn or pota-
toes. II there Is sod to be rotting
during the summer n moderate dress
Ing of commercial fertilizers will in
sure as great success as he could usual
ly depend upon with a dressing OF ma.
nure on land that has been naked
through the winter. Possibly the sod
may not equal in value the plant nutri-
ton furnished by a dressing Of stable
manure, but the sod will be more sure
to rot If the season be dry, and thus
make up in availability what it lacks
In fertilizing power. If the sod be
mainly of clover. the fertility it will
add to the soil viii be as great as is
given with the manure dressings, es-
pecially If applied just after the land
is plowed.

Success in dairying must depend not
only on having cows able to give n lib
eral mess and keep at 1t, but also on
the kind OF mixers employed. A care
less, lazy mixer will easily lose more
than his wages during the time he Is
employed. Not only this, but he viii
quickly convert really good COW into
poor one. The milk which the careless
mixer leaves In the udder Is always
that which has the largest amount OF
butter fats. III 1t is not drawn the fat
Is reabsorbed into the COW and helps
to dry her Off. The difficulty In get
ting help that can be depended on Is
the great drawback in running large
dairy farm. 1t is also no light job to
milk ten, twelve or more cows twice
every day. 1t Will make any mans
hands tired until he becomes used to II.

Where summer apples are plentiful
II Is more profitable to make them into
cider, and then into vinegar. A hand
mill can be had for $40 that will make
from two to three barrels per day. AT
ter the juice is pressed out mix the
pumace with mlll-feed. and feed it to
the cows when fresh. Fill the barrels
full OF cider and set them In the sun to
ferment Keep the barrels full. After
fermentation ceases add two gallons of
strong old vinegar to each barrel. and
put In three strips OF brown paper sat
urated with common molasses. Cover
the bung-hole with gauze wire. BY the
following spring excellent vinegar may
be had. Never add water to the cider,
as 1t Injuries the strength and flavor OF
the vinegar.

A country cannot continue to be pop
ulous nor highly civilized when its for
ests, or their equivalent In coal, are lost
TO 1t. But this loss has been expert
enced by many nations. The whole
Eastern world was once well wooded.
Roman and Greek writer's assure us or
this. Vast regions Of Europe and
Asia, by wars and wantonness and
imprudence, have been stripped or
their forests. A belt OF woodland
stretching from the Pyrenees to the
Himalayas has been swept away, and
that whole region, once fertile and pop
ulous, now barely sustalns a people
scanty In numbers. 1t is a Significant
fact that great deserts now occupy the
original seat of the human race, and
extend on every route of their migra-
tons. Humboldt is reported as saying
"Men In all climates seem TO bring up
on future generations two calamities at
once-a want of fuel and a scarcity OF
water" The two come alike from the
destruction of the forests.

THREE HAPPY WOMEN

ROCHE HARBoR NEWS BRIEFS.

/ The steamer Lakme is expected in

the southern markets. The demand
for Roche Harbor lime is steadily in
creasing.
Mr.. Chas. Mckay passed through

across the line. Mr.. Mckay is an old
and experienced miner and we wish
him success.
Mr.: l. d. Phipps, travelling salesman
for w. L. Kline & Co., of st. Louis, is
in town again. We believe there must
be something in or about our city which
attracts his attention. Can it be that
our city is SO attractive?
Judge Warbass, our esteemed custom
house officer, returned from Olympia

on business relating to the tide land
act. Mr.. Webber, of Port Townsend,

bass absence.

some mysterious noise, little musical
In tone they say, the source of which
has not yet been found. 1t cannot be
that our band was out practicing upon
that occasion?
Road Overseer [. Sandwich deserves
great credit for the improvements upon
our county roads this year. Never be-
fore have our roads been in the same
condition as now. Parties can now
ride over them on bicycles with the
greatest of comfort.
DIR. I. Harrison, of this city, boarded
the Lydia Thompson the other day
enroute for the colds fields of Orcas
island. We believe that E. w. Harri-
son, a brother Of the doctors, has
struck paying quartz which apparently
has given the doctor the gold fever.
The steamer Roche Harbor came
into port the other day with the COM
been out driving fish trap at Mitch
ell's bay for Messrs. Shultz and Gross.
They having extended the trap further
out than last season. When completed
we believe it will be first-class trap.
Gold has been found in or near our
city and parties are now engaged in
sinking a shaft. The outlook here for
gold is promising, as has been proven
by the surface rock. The specimens
shown indicate principally iron, silver
and gold. What causes the rush to the
gold fields of Alaska when our own
islands are rich in precious minerals?
Our new club, which was organized
a short time ago, met the other night
for the purpose, we are told, of having
said club christened and also for the ini-
itation of a new member. After con-
siderable discussion the body was finally
