NAVIGATING A COW.
A Cape Cod Captains Way of Keeping
Her on the Desired Course.

a writer in the Outlook tells the fol
lowing; When | was down on Cape
Cod last summer | heard an amusing
story about an old sea captain and his
COW. Capt. Patterson. after sailing the
sea for more than forty years finally
retired to little farm near Barnstable,
where he settled down, with a horse.
cow and two or three dozen hens. HIS
COW, though q lank and rather stubborn
creature, was said to come from very
good stock, and when the Barnstahle
people took It into their heads to have
fair Capt Patterson determined to
exhibit his COW.
But when the day came for driving
her to the grounds the COW showed
that she had a mind of her own, and
would not bulge step beyond the gate.
In vain the old captain tugged at the
rope, pummeled her sides and pushed
her TANKS.
Capt Patterson's patience was very
nearly gone, when suddenly an idea
occurred to him. Though he was not
strong enough himself to force the COW
to 90 to the fair, his training suggested
something that was. Tying the COW
to the gate-post, he went up into the
loft of his barn and threw down an old
sail stepped to n dory mast. Then he
put horses blanket belt through an
Iron ring, strapped the belt around the
COW, inserted the end of the mast in
the ring, and bound the mast to the
side of the COW with some fifty feet OF
rope.
The wind blew "quartering," and
when the captain united the COW and
raised the sail the canvas was swellad
out over the cows back and away she
went Siding" down the road, mooing
and lunging, and trying to stop herself
IL vain. Capt. Patterson seized her tail,
and. using it as Il rudder, guided her
skillfully In the right direction. With
every fresh puff of wind the obstinate
COW would be hurried along faster
while the dust blew up in clouds, and
the sail Tapped and tugged, as Capt.
Patterson held to the main-sheet with
one hand and the cows tail with the
other.
1t was hard voyage for both Of
them, but not a long one; and when
they came in sight Of the fair ground
everybody ran out to see the remalka-
bic sight of a COW being sailed through
the streets like a ship. Cheers and
laughter filled the air, and when the
captain finally whrled his COW around
at the gate of the fair ground and
brought her neatly ''up into the wind
the shout that arose might have been
heard two miles away.
Unfortunately, Capt Patterson's COW
did not take one Of the prizes for blood
ed stock, but the captain himself was
given a special prize by the fair COM
missioners for "the best device for get
ting balky cattle to market"

more as may be needed. The crib must
not be too wide, and full opportunity
must be given for the wind to pass
through to dry the ears and prevent
heating of the new grain. This crib
Is set on posts as shown. and IS cover
ed on both sides with lath laid length
ways. The upper part may be used

needed. The top OF each side should be
closed In, AZ the sides are. 1t IS a
profitable measure Of safety to cover
such n crib as this inside with fine
wire gauze, with such small mesh as
will keep out the grain moths. Where
the danger from these does not exist
the quarter-inch wire net will keep out
the mice and rats.

KeeDing Teams Busy,

One of the hardest tasks Of the small
farmer is to keep the teams that he Is
obliged to own busy ali times Of the
year. There are many times, In winter
especially, when the weather Is unfit
for out-of-door work. and then both
men and teams are necessarily idle
But If all the good weather Is used. the
team can be made profitable even dur
ing the winter. On a sleigh with smooth
track larger loads can be drawn than
can be on wagons, and with less labor
to both team and loader. Loads of
manure can be drawn from cities If u
contract has been made for 1t in adj
vance. The market gardeners secure
most of this manure, for they contract
to take 1t every month through the
year. which most farmers who are
busiest IN the summer cannot afford to
do.

Dupes.

Millions are made annually out Of
dupes who invest their money in
schemes for acquiring sudden riches
The millionaircS have 50 long q lead
that the only way to catch up with
them Is to make fortunes In a day.
Sligo Bay cost Pniladelphians tons Of
money. Barrels have been wasted In
the search for the Lost Rocker" or
the Lake of the Golden Bar. The
South Sea Bubble nearly wrecked Eng
land. Tie mississippi Scheme" or
THE System" depleted nearly all the
stockings In France. Kidd's treasure
still talks money out of the pockets Of
these hurry up fellows. Montezuma 5
hoard has cost several fortunes. Hun
dreds of thousands of pounds sterling
have been invested IN the scheme to
dig from the bottom of the Red Sea the
vast treasures lost by the hosts of
Pharaoh. There are other schemes too
numerous to bother with.

There IS more loss and waste for
want of safe corn cribs on the farms
than by any other neglect to ensure
safety from small yermin. Rats, mice
and those insects which rayage this
grain, VIII frequently do more damage
than would pay the interest on the
cost of the best and most substantial
cribs to store 1t In. In the warmer part
of the United States there are two spe-
Giles OF insects, either Of which VIII
destroy full half of the corn every
year by laying their eggs on the grain,
and the gruhs VIII eat the grain into
holes, several of these holes frequently
being found in each grain.

from two hundred bushels to as many

Elow-Riuening Cheese.

The anxiety of cheese makers to have
their cheese come early into market in
duccS them to make soft porous
cheese into which air easily enters, and
which consequently rlpens early. But
cheese thus made cannot be kept for n
long time without having Its quality
much deteriorated. If Il larger proper
ton OF cheese was pressed thoroughly
SO az to have n lirmer texture, 1t would
keep until times when there Is little
good cheese in market, and higher
prices could be obtained for 1t. But the
firm cheese has SO much less moisture
than the porous cheese that the price
does not pay the maker.
