Gen. Calixito Garcia has returned
to Santiago. 1t was his first appear.
ance since his sudden and lllhumor-
ed departure on July II. Gen. Gar
cia received quite an ovation and
was bauquetted by resident Amer
leans and Cubaus, Replying to an
address OF welcome, he said:
People of Cuba, we owe a great
debt to those whose efforts in behalf
ofCuban independence, efforts which
would have been useless-uo, not
useless, for we would haye triumph
ed;but not speedily, if the Ameaicau
people, that colossal republic, with
its famous fighters, great ships and
dauntless army, had not sent its own
sons to shed their blood with ours.
A grand nation 1t must be when the
sons of millionaires, who had nothing
to gain in Cuba, but a soldiers glory,
should come here to die side by side
with Cubans. This great nation
to this noble country which has al
ways fought for the rights of lib
erty-we owe the achievement OF
ouriEdepence and the consumma-
tion of our ideals. "Our gratitude

That it takes more than muscle

That bigness is not greatness,
That it requires pluck to be pa
tient.
That selfishuess is the most un-
manly thing in the world.
That the consideration for mother
and sister does more to make a
gentleman than the kind of neck
tie he wears.
That piety is not puegishness,
That the only whole man is the
holy man.
That to follow the crowd is a
confession of weakness.
That street corners are a poor
college.
That one real friend is worth a
score of mere acquaintance.
That to be afraid of ones no.
blest self is greatest cowardice.
That it is never too soon to be-

of ones self.
That what is put into the brain

years hence.
That the only manliness worth
possessing is shown in the life of

Travellers in Esquimauxland relate
curious stories of the dogs that are
almost the only means of conveyance
in that part of the world. The real
Esquimaux dog of pure breed is n
rarity. They are so nearly akin to
wolves that the breeds become mixed,
and it is found extremely hard to keep
them separate. Especially is this true
whore there are not excellent facili-
ties for keeping dogs confined. II is
no unusual thing for the sled dogs to
rus away and take refuge with the
wolves. II is said to be very difficult
to make up teams of thoroughbred
dogs. In almost all cases there will
be several that show their wolfish
origin most plainly. The wolf cross
produces dog closely lyresemblng the
wolf. The creature is exceedingly
vicious, unreliable and hard to man
age, but very hardy, swift and endur-
ing. With several well-trained dogs
in the band, the sledge driver takes
large loads of goods across the coun-
try. He travels rapidly and safely,
provided he can keep his team in sub
lection. Occasionally the wolf dogs
will gnaw the straps of their harness
and break away in spite OF every pre-
caution. Some of these brutes seem
to possess almost superhuman intelli-
gence. They appear to read the trav-
eler's thoughts and know just how
much they can trespass on his good
nature. The lash is considered by
many persons the only method of
government. Moral suasion has been
tried, but with somewhat Indifferent
results. The animals are so accus-
toned to force that they seem unable
to appreciate or understand kindness.
Possibly If these dogs were taken in
hand and gently trained from their
birth something might be done with
them. New York Ledger.

InIudiciOus Use of fDisinfectants.

1t is foible Of human nature to
pass from extreme to extreme. Peo-
pie are slow to accept new theory,
but, having once adopted it, they are
ready to work it to death. How many
years it is since medical officers had
to implore the folk in their districts
to use disinfectants, and encountered
the most senseless opposition in their
crusade? Now they are finding n new
difficulty. People have recognized
the value of disinfectants and deodor-
izers, and they employ them by the
bucketful without rhyme or reason,
trusting blindly to their efficacy, on
the principle that one cannot have
too much of good thing. So we find
the Clerkenwell medical officer warn
ing the public yainst this injudicious
use, and declaring that 'it has been
found that disinfectants are used in
haphazard and indiscriminate manner
by the public. Not only are
they absolutely valueless in many
cases, but, by creating false i'm
preston OF security, they do an i'm
mense amount OF harm" In other
words, people imagine that cleanliness
may be ignored provided only that
they empty unlimited carbolic washes
and powders over the unclean places.
That is dire superstition, born main
ly of laziness and aversion to soap and
water. The latter are just as neces-
fary as they ever were. London

Tho Cause of Notifies.

The prime cause of mottles is the
use Of too cold water in washing the
butter and the manner in which it is
introduced into the churn. BY using
too cold water the outside of the but
ter granules becomes crusted or hard
ened like the shell of an egg, while the
inside is soft. Now when this mass is
worked together those little shells re-
main in the same condition, and no
amount Of working or tempering salt,
or even distribution Of salt when added,
will change the conditions. They do
not work up, consequently do not take
salt, hence the fine threadlike streaks
in the butter.
The manner in which the water is
introduced into the churn is response
BILE for the large mottles, or seeming
Jumps of white butter throughout the
mass. In the majority of creameries
throughout the country the water is
pumped directly into the churn, either
through hose or pipe. Now, when
the water strikes the butter these
granules become hard and solid like
in the first case, only that these hard
granules are not broken down at all,
and the large notifies are the result.
The wash water should be tempered
to within two or three degrees of the
churn temperature.-New York Pro.

the curves, seemed the oncoming roar

Marketing Garden Yegctables.


Only half, or often less than this, of
the gardeners work is accomplished
when he has successfully grown his
crop. Their marketing in good con-
dition and cheaply is of the greatest
importance. There is more often
failure here than anywhere else in gar
dening. frequently such failure is
made inevitable, by locating the gar
den where its produce cannot find
near market. Such places are also
generally difficult to manure, and the
necessary help to harvest the vege-
table crops as well as to market them
cannot be easily secured. The pro-
ducts of the garden are much more
bulky than those of farm lands in or
dinary crops. The difference of a mile
Or two miles in carrying each load to
market becomes an enormous burden
when applied to the bulkiest garden
of vegetables. 1t is this that makes
land near cities and villages, that is
suitable for market gardening, so dear
MS it is. And yet, the market gar
dener who is wise will prefer this
highest priced land rather than the
land that is much cheaper because it is
farthest from market. Gull

Use of Fertilizers.

There is no question but what good
stable manure contains all the valuable
manurial elements, but so much stable
manure used is of such a poor grade
that other sources must be worked to
supply needed chemicals to the soil.
The nitrogen question has been easily
settled since it has been found that
legumes will gather it for us from the
air, so that we are left to deal only
with potash and phosphoric acid. II
is well known that there are large
stores of these in the soil, which re-
mains, oftentimes, undisturbed for
years simply because farmers do not
go .about getting them out in the
proper way. Gradually it is being
learned that the best way to make these
elements available, either when they
exist in the soil or are placed there in
the shape of dissolved bone or rock
and muriate or sulphate of potash, is
by frequent cultivation SO as to admit
air and moisture to act on these ele-
ments and set them free for the use Of
plant roots. Potash and phosphorus
acid are not destroyed by the ordinary
methods of farming and can be put on
the land at any time to be taken up by
crops in the course of time. Both re-
