The Santiagoans generally are
we'll pleased with American rule.
The soldiers Of both sides meet in
the friendliest manner.
The Madrid Impartial, q strong
jingo journal, says the American
treatment of Spanish prisoners is
more humanitarian than Germany's
of the French in 1871, and Russia's
Of the Turks.
The Spanish government denies
that it ordered Gen. Toral to sur
render Santiago.
The Spanish Transatlantic Co.
was awarded the contract of carry
ing the prisoners from Santiago to
Spain at $50 per enlisted man and
SIS per officer. 1t will cost over
half a million dollars. The soldiers
are said to be under the belief that
they are to be paid arrears and sent
home by the United States, having
been told 90, and that this nation
has bought Cuba. They don't think
they were surrendered.
A wild rumor comes by way Of
Jamaica that Gen. Garcia was shot
and killed.
Gen. Perrejo, in command at
Guantanamo, refused to be included
In Gen. Torars surrender.

tious and try to rise in the world,
their more indolent companions are
filled with envy, and often do all
in their power to drag them down.

mountain boys. We lived on a little
farm in Letcher county. 1t was a
bare living that could be made on
it. Brother and 1 educated our
selves enough to teach school.

branches with a view to higher

Removing Warts from Cattle.

Many warts with which cattle are
afflicted are more unsightly than in
furious and If they are not located on
some tender spot, such as eyelids or lips,
they should be removed. Warts on the
teats cause more trouble than others,
making the cow uneasy from pain dur
ing, often to the point where 1t becomes
necessary to remove them at once. At
the time when the cow is dry is best
for the work, and If possible to avoid
1t do not perform the work at any other
time. The pain during milking may be
relieved by rubbing teats and udder with
sweet oil after each milking.
When the cow is dry the warts may be
cut off with sharp shears or knife and
the spot touched with lunar caustic to
prevent further growth Small warts on
other parts Of the body may usually be
pulled out by the roots with the thumb
and finger, OF If too small to take hold
Of or too strong to treat in this way,
they may be cut off or strong silk
string tied tightly over them near the
base. In time they will die and drop off.
In all cases when warts are removed by
any method the spots should be touched
with the caustic to prevent further
growth.

IrrIgatlng Celery.

The celery crop is profitable in pro-
portion to the amount of labor spent
upon 1t at the smallest possible expense.
II 1t takes the bulk Of the expense to
bleach the crop it is not apt to pay for
the labor involved and the use Of the
land. The best method of growing Gel
cry for profit Is to bleach it while it is
getting it's growth so that the expense
attending this process may later be
saved, in the main. If the plants are set
in narrow rows and the spaces between
the rows kept clean it is a simple matter
to keep the soil moist by any arrange
ment which will furnish water mex
pensiYely, and in keeping the soil moist
while the plants are growing the process
of bleaching will be going on.
The beds should be level and hose sup
piled to reach to the end Of the bed
nearest the water. To the end of the
hose fasten a tube or hose made Of
denim or some material OF about the
same porous nature, through the meshes
of which the water may oOze as 1t flows.
It will require about two hours to prop
erly irrigate two rows hundred feet
long in this manner OF course it Is
understood that the plan can only be
carried out by the use Of tank or wind
mill, but one or the other is essential to
the successful celery grower unless he
has land sufficiently moist without them.
Celery grown by this method requires
but little bleaching at the end Of the
season and this may be done in the
trenches or indoors, as preferred

Power of Engines.

Steam and gasoline engines are COM
Ing into such common use by farmers
that 1t may be interesting to know how
to compute the horsepower of both
these machines. A horsepower is estl-
mated at the force required to lift $4,000
pounds one foot high in one minute.
There are two ways of ascertalning the
horsepower Of an engine, One is to
apply q brake so as to determine the
number of pounds of resistance neces-
sary to stop the engine. The other Is
by mathematical calculation as follows:
Multiply the area of the piston in square
inches by the length Of the double stroke
of the piston In feet, then multiply this
by the mean pressure In pounds per
square inch In the cylinder and this by
the number of revolutions per minute.
This will give the number Of pounds
per foot per minute, and this divided by
$4,000 will give the horsepower of q
steam engine. In gasoline engines the
power Of the explosion Is applied to the
piston only once in two full strokes and
the power Is acting on the piston only
one-fourth of the time and instead Of
multiplying by the number Of revolu-
tiOns per minute it should be by one
fourth of the revolutions per minute and
with this variation the same method
would be used as above stated for a
steam engine.
