CHAPTER XVII.
A GOLDEN HARVEST.

Tim NcCabe and the boys wrought
steadily through the rest of the day and
the following two days. Inasmuch as
the summer sun in the KIondike region
does not thaw the soil to a greater
depth than two feet. it was necessary
TO pile wood upon the earth and set it
afire As this gradually dissolved the
frozen ground, the refuse dirt was
cleared away so as TO reach paying
earth or gravel. The results for a time
We're disappointing. The gold hunters
secured a good deal of yellow grains or
dust, and ordinarily would have been
satisfied, but naturally they were
greedy for more.
And on the third day they got it.

Duck and Chicken Weights.


A well known poultryman in New
Jersey tested the weights Of chickens
and ducklings at various ages to see
whether the increase of growth in the
ducks would pay for the increased
amount Of food they required, which
was about twice as much for young ducks
as chickens His reputation should be

and properly fed on good food. The
weights we're Chickens One week old,
2 ounces; two weeks, ounces; three

duck made more than double the weight.
As the prices upon ducks and chickens
At that age are not far apart, though
usually the young duck sells for little
more, il would seem that the ducks we're
the most profitable And yet we think
the chickens gave some profit over cost

Cunning.

Formerly butter was churned until it
was one solid mass it was washed oace,
sailed and worked. The Southwest says
it was thought best to churn at tenn
perature Of about 81 degrees, but gradu-
ally the temperature has been lowered
until now it is not unusual to churn at
48 degrees A low temperature has
advantages. The loss 10 butter fat will
be less; the butter will need less wash
ing and have better body than when
churned at high temperature. With
proper precaution, says an authority,
the loss of butter fat need not be more
than about one-tenth of one per cent
Less time will be required to churn at a
high temperature, but it will be at the
expense of butter fat To churn at a
low temperature requires rich cream
While 30 per cent cream can be
readily churned at AZ or so degrees, it
would be difficult to churn 25 per cent
cream at this temperature. Improperly
washed butter, butter that has large
per cent of buttermilk remaining in Il
will not keep we'll; it will soon have a
distinctly bad favor and become rancid
II is best salted In the granular state
using only good quality of 6ne DR.,
salt. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the
granules, mix thoroughly with paddle
(never touch butter with the hands, }
press down lightly, leave stand several
hours for the salt to dissolve, then work
until the butter does not contain more
than IL or 10 per cent. moisture. -

To Avoid Hog Cholera.

Never introduce new hogs into the
herd until they have first been quaran-
tined for Eve or six weeks Care should
also be taken in taking females away
for service.
Do not allow hogs to have access to
streams or stagnant ponds; supply water
from wells.
If cholera is anywhere within nun.
Der of miles, divide the herd into smaller
droves and keep these separated from
each other as far as possible. Confne
the animals to comparatively small yards
with good feeding and nesting places.
Keep the surroundings clean. The
sprinkling of sir-slaked lime about the
pens, or the use Of five per cent. solu-
ton of crude. carbolic acid every few
days will be found beneficial. Feed
mixed diet and keep the animals as Wig
orous and thrifty as possible. A pow
der composed of sulphate Of iron one
half pound, bicarbonate Of soda one-half
pound, nux vomica one-fourth pound,
and arsenic one drachm, thoroughly
mixed, giving to each four or five me-
Diminished hogs a tablespoonful once
day, will help to produce thrift and
Vigor.
If an animal manifests symptoms Of
disease remove the healthy ones at once
to new quarters, having FIRST removed all
dirt from them by the liberal use of
water. In the majority of cases it will
probably be as well to destroy the dis
eased animal at once, and burn the car
cass and thus try to hold in check the
further spread of the disease. If thought
best, however, to treat, give dry. COM
Portable quarters, sloppy diet and the
drugs that have already been suggested,
Great care should be taken to see that
the carcasses Of the dead are disposed
Of properly. 1t is better to burn the
carcass along with the litter and all that
is Of little value that has been used
around the sick. If not burned, bury
deeply in some place where hogs will
not be allowed to run for year or so,
and before covering the carcass with
dirt cover it with air-slaked lime, ln
moving the carcass from where the ami
NAL died to where it is to be burned, or
buried, guard against spreading the
germs along on the ground by placing
the carcass in box afterwards burn
the box.-Michiyan Experimental Sta

Milk Fever.

ln the veterinary column Of the
Breeders Gazette appears the follow
ing advice for the prevention of milk
fever, to all Of which we can agree with
the exception of stopping all grain or
meal rations" We believe one of the
very best preventions of milk fever is
the liberal feeding of oats for month
or six weeks prior to calving They are
certainly renovator of the cows system
and help the calf and herself through
the ordeal We believe the majority of
cases of milk fever can be traced to
allowing cows the free range of green
pasture at this period. Dry feeding as
stated in the following is the proper
treatment for freshening cows. The
Gazette saye:
This dread disease is characterized
by paralysis, loss of consciousness, and
suppression of milk, urine and feces
Ii is fatal in at least rs per cent. of all
cases so characterized unless properly
treated and is liable to recur at next
calving time in recovered cases. No
owner of COWS need have a single case
of this disease if he prevent it as fol-
lsws: Dry cows, if possible, six weeks
prior to calving and stop all grain or
meal rations, giving instead hay. fodder,
and bran mashes, mixing in the latter
sufficient flaxseed meal to keep the bow
els freely open, A few days prior to
calving double the amount of Haxseed
meal and if bowels are at all costive give
epson salts also in sufficient quantity to
loosen them. Pregnant COWS liable to
the disease, being with third to fifth
calf, heavy mixers and fat, should be
kept of rich green pasturage and fed
dry and other food as above in order to
prevent the trouble. The treatment of
the disease in its characterized form
ought to be entrusted to a qualified
We terinarian." -EI.

1t is believed Pampangu has had to

The native proclamation of independ-

Mia is completely surrounded by the
insurgents, of whom there are three
forces deployed about the city. The
success of the rebels Is wonderful. The
insurgents have captured old Cavite
church, taking 270 prisoners, and they
now hold the entire shore of the bay
right around to Malate. A foreign fire
brigade composed of British. SWISS
and Germans, intend to remain ashore.

The latest reports from Manila are
that the insurgents are still gaining

According to estimates made by Ad.
jutant General Corbin, the total mum
ber of troops left at Tampa after the
sailing of the Santiago expedition Is in
the neighborhood of 23,OOO. At Jack.
sonville it is estimated by the adjutant
general that there are about 5000
men. This would make the entire

The big American liners, Paris and
New York, now converted into the
auxiliary cruisers Yale and Harvard
of the United States navy, are to be
used as troop transports for the Puer-
to Rican expedition. These vessels are
now at Newport News receiving the
armament which was intended for but
not placed upon them when they were
first ordered to sea. The use of the
Yale and Harvard in the new capacity
has been decided upon owing to diff
Guilty encountered in securing proper
troop ships for the Puerto Rican ex-
pedition.
A terrible stampede occurred among
the horses and unbroken mules be
longing to the army and kept in cor
raj near the camp ut Tampa. The
stampede began about 10 o'clock, and
more than 5000 mules and horses
made wild dash, breaking the fences
of their corral and charging through
the camp. Many of the men were In
bed, and before they could receive the
slightest warming many We're under
the feet of the animals. The soldiers
attempted to break the stampede by
firing volley of shots, but 1t only
made matters worse The camps OF

IN SIGHT OF MANILA.
American Troop ship Sighted Near the
Philippine Capital.

Hong Kong, June 19.-The steamer
Yuen Sang arrived to-day. She left
Manila on June 18th with 1,20O pas
sengers, mostly Chinese. There We're
fifty Europeans, including twenty
seven French nuns. and forty boxes of
specie for the Chartered bank.
At o'clock on the morning of June
18th the Yuen Sang passed the steamer
City of Peking, which expected to ar
rive at Manila that day.
1t is stated that, although the rebels
hold the town at their mercy, Admiral
Dewey restrains them, being desirous
that Manila shall capitulate to Ameri-
can troops. The refugees expect that
Manila has now surrendered.
The Yuen Sang. which left Manila
June 18th. reports that railway di-
rector who went out on the line on IA
locomotive was fired on by the insur-
gents four kilometers outside of Ma
Mia. The Yucn Sang also reports that
the railroad station is being fortified.
The Spaniards, it is said, are demoral-
lied, and 1t was expected when the
steamer left that they would retire to
the citadel by the 10th.

RUNNING IN BLOCKADE.
1t Is Feared That Vessels Are Getting In
to Havana.

New York, June ia special to the
Herald from Washington, ID. C., says
Apprehension is felt in official circles
that as result of the weakening of
the blockade squadron success may at
tend the operations of the blockade
runners. 1t is known in official circles
that Havana has been receiving food
stuffs. and it is regarded as quite prob
able that these supplies were brought
by blockade runners, who have used
neighboring West India islands as the
base of operations, just as Nassau was
used during the Civil War.
1t developed to-day that eighteen
men-ofwar had been withdrawn from
the blockading squadron to form the
conveying squadron undor the com
mand of Captain II. G. Taylor. com
manding the battleship Indiana. Be
fore the withdrawal of these ships the
blockade squadron had been reduced
by the departure of Rear Admiral
Sampson with the New York, May
flower, Porter and several other YES
sells.

dispatch from ManZanillo, province of
Santiago de Cuba, received here to-day
announces the arrival there of the

cion. which sailed from Kingston about
o'clock on Thursday morning with
food supplies for the Spanish troops,
and carrying. it is understood, 100000
in gold.

THE PHILIPPINE EXPEDITION.
First Troops Ought to Reach Manila june

First Troops Ought to Reach Manila June
Washington. June lit is stated on
authority that the first expedition to
the Philippines did not stop at the La
drone islands. and that the second will
not put in there.
The first expedition, comprising 1000
men, on the steamers City of Sydney.
City of Pekin and Australia. was last
spoken to just after having left Homo
lulu. The vessels We're ahead of time
and should reach Manila about June
18th.
The troops will be assigned to the
forts in the vicinity of Cavite.
The second expedition, 3,465 officers
and men under General Greene, which
left San Francisco yesterday, is expect
ed to reach its destination by July 10th.
The third and probably the last ex-
pedltion TO the Philippines will leave
San Francisco about June Both. Gen
eral Merritt has stated that he will
go with this command.
In case the Ladrone islands are to
be occupied. it is believed the work
will fall to this party, and in case OF
occupation, Umata will probably be the
port selected. AT this place there is Il
fine harbor and good location for a
coaling station.
