AN ACCIDENT.

A secular accident, and one that
might easily have proven fatal, hap
pened to Chris Layton of this place late
yesterday afternoon. The young man
was stacking hay, which was being
hoisted with a single pole derrick, when
the fork swung over the stack and
knocked him to the ground, 16 feet be-
low. He was severely hurt, the most
serious of his injuries being a badly
dislecated shoulder, which will disable
him for several weeks.

A LITTER OF CALVES.

Waddy, Ky, May 27.-On the farm
of ]. NJ. Whitehouse, a wellknown
and prominent farmer of this neigh
borhood. IA COW yesterday dropped
seventy calves. Sixty.nine of them
were about the size of rats. but fully
developed in every way. They were
all marked very much as their mo.
ther. They did not live but a short
while, but were active while alive.
The other one is full.sized calf
and is living. II seemed AZ much
surprised at the presence of so
many brothers and sisters rs the
people who were attracted 10 the
spot by the unusual occurrence.
The happening was so hard TO
believe that farmers all over the
county have visited Mr.. White
houses farm since Saturday night
to see the litter of calves aud be
convinced.
A museum man could have made
a great feature of them If he had
been on hand to buy aud preserve
their bodies.

NO PRIVATE POSTAL CARDS.

eral belief that congress has au.
thorized the issue and use of pri-
vate postal cards, mailable ut one
cent rate of postage. This belief is
unfounded. The department has
called the attention of all postmast-
ers to this fact and has notified
them that no law has been enacted
upon tie subject. so that private
mailing cards. bearing writ en- mes
sages, when deposited in the mails
are still subject to postage at the

SATURDAY, JUNE 5.
PREVENTING RAIN.

Washington, May 3l.-Possibly II
was from noticing the unsuccessful
attempts made by the would-be
rainmakers in the United States 10
bring down showers when wanted
that an ingenious Austrian grape
grower was induced to exactly re-
verse the American practice. An
account of his experiment is given
by United States Consul Stephan
at Annaberg in a report to the state
department..
The Austrian owned extensive
vineyards situated on tile southern
slopes of the mountains, in local
ity often visited by destructive hail
storms. AT first he tried galvanized
wire, but this was too expensive,
and he decided to install "a battery
and test the plan of causing explo-
sions to drive off the hail storms.
He erected six stations on promi.
nent mountain SUBMITS command
ing territory about two miles i'm
extent. Each station sheltered ten
mortars and II corps of volunteers
handled them.
The practical test ia thus de.
scribed: Threatening black clouds
made their appearance on the sum.
miis of the Bacher mountains. At
a given signal all the n,ortars .,ver"
fired off and the continuous de,on-
ations in a few moments caused a
sudden reaction in the movement
of tine clouds. The cloud wall
opened up funnc!-like; the mouth
of the funnel began TO rise in the
form of consecutive rings. expand
ing gradually until all the clouds
scattered and disappeared. No hail
nor sudden downpour of rain fell"
The same experience was gone
through six times last summer aud
has without single exception
proved successful preventive.

Rural Electric Highways.

In another ,coiumn very inter
estiug article ~ contributed by a
we'll known engine<e on the devel-
opmsnt of rural electric roads.
While the ideas advauced In II: have
to certain extent been snooted be-
fore, the presentation of these enter.
prises as filling an entirely distihc ct
field from that of the existing
through. railroads is important
enough to be worthy of attention.
The distinction brought out IL
that the rural electric roads run
ming through farming Districts and
connecting country villages and
towns will develop traffic that the
steam railroads cannot touch. An
electric road fitted to do a throus h
freight and passenger business
sant have trucks, grades, trains,
speed and stations in all respects
equal to those of existing railways,
the only difference--,that of power
being determined solely by the
question of economy. But such an
electric road is not of the class con-
templated in this article. What is
referred to is the cheap electric
road, made cheap by free right OF
way and the reduction of speed To
the limit of safety for a country
highway. and which by those limit
atoms undertakes nothing more
than local business, and IL incap.
able of through passenger and
heavy freight traffic.
The article sets fourth that the
travel between villages and farms,
the shipment of light freight, such
as butter. eggs. milk, fruit and veg
etables. from the farms to the near
est market. and the carrying back
of groceries or dry goods to be de-
livered at each farm house. is Il
business too minute for the heavy
machinery of Il railroad. but which
may furnish lucrative traffic for a
light electric line.
