Speaking about labor. the Govern
meut Printing office at Washington il
one Of the busiest places in the world
A walk through that hive Of industry
is well worth taking. There the print
ing and binding for the public service o
the nation is done in the highest type
of the art.
Employment is given to twenty-eight
hundred persons. The establishment
consumes four thousand dollars worth
OF white paper every day, and the pay
roll amounts to thirteen thousand dol.
lars every working day IN the year.
Many women are employed in the
building, especially the binding de-
partment, white and colored women
working side by side. Were it not for
the labor saving machiery employed, il
would require ten Thousand hands to dc
the work turned out every day There
are machines for hacking books which
look as if they had brains
The popular idea that Uncle Sam is
lax in his treatment of his servants and
Indifferent as to the cost of his product,
is a mistake EN- one. The man who works
in the departments at Washington gives
Uncle Sam his moneys worth, and in
the various workshops nothing Is lost.
In the big bIndery there is little ma
chine, operated by a woman, which
dusts the superhuous leaf from the
backs of books, even after it has once
gone through the first process of re-
moving it. The leaf comes off in the
tiniest particles, almost too fine to be
seen without the aid of magnifying
glass. Ordinarily one would think that
this was too Insignificant thing to en-
gage the attention of so rich fellow
as Uncle Sam, but this little machine
saves five thousand dollars year, ali
the same.-Exchange

Most farmers make butter. but the
majority of them do not know whether
they are making it at profit or loss
simply for the reason that they do no,
keep an account OF what it costs to make
the butter or even what the sales
amount to. There are four essentials
necessary for profitable butter making,
viz; ID The right kind of a COW, (2)
the right kind Of feed and care for the
COW. 81 the making of the right kind
OF butter, lD the marketing of the but
ter so as to obtain the highest price
for it.
The young turkeys should now be
growing and shonld by this time have
reached stage at which they can care
for themselves. They are sometimes
made lame by being compelled to align,
from some high roOsting place. This
lameness comes on gradually and there
Ia no remedy but to put them in a shed
until the iameness passes away. They
like to roam and seek their food. but
should the grass be scarce by reason of
prolonged dry weather they will appre-
ciate mess of food at night, and will
also then more readily come up to the
BARNARD than If left entirely to them
selves.
When using whitewash apply It as
hot as 1t can be applied, and have II
thick 50 as to cover the cracks as much
as possible. Whitewash will destroy
lice If put on the walls properly. but
the thin, watery whitewash does but
little service. In addition to iis nd.
yantages in destroying lice, it also makes
the interior OF the poultry house light

The suppoeitioh that common fowls
are harder than pure breeds is not
borne out by facts. Those who hatch
chicks of the common kind lose large
humber of them, only the strongest sur
viving inbred. The pure breeds suffer
from being pampered by their owners
In many instances, in which case they
do not compare favorably with the com
mon fowls; but common fowls are of
little value compared with the pure
breeds, which have been found to be
more profitable in every respect.

QUEER LEGAL PROCEDURE.

In Court,

wv sSs rhkne W Wy
In Court.
Time IL money, and to no one is the
truth Of this better known than to
some lawyers whose faces are seldom
seen in any court below the supreme.
An instance occurred in the Municipal
Court in Buffalo. N. Y, recently which
created amusement
Judge Braunlein was hearing an ac-
ton brought to recover a debt Of So.
both parties to the case being Poles.
The court room was crowded with
witnesses, and his Honor had settled
down for a long and hard-fought bat
tie between the two attorneys.
The first witness had been called
when Lawyer Locke entered the court
room. He looked over the assembled
crowd, bowed to the Judge. and then,
depositing his hat on one of the small
tables within the rail. prepared to wait
for the end Of the case.
An hour passed and still the prose
cution kept calling witnesses and pill
ing up testimony. Mr.. Locke had for
some time been. fidgeting in his chair,
and finally, when it seemed as though
| the entire day would be occupied in
the hearing, he walked over to the at
torney for the. plaintiff and touched
him on the shoulder.
What is the amount involved in
this case for which your client is
suingT" he asked.
Eight dollars. Mr.. Locke" was the
reply.
"And the court costs"
"AbOut four more"
"Will you take $12" and consent TO
discontinuance Of the case" asked
Mr.. Locke. 81 have an important case
Of my own and my time is too valu-
able to waste 1t here"
"My client will consent to n discon-
tinuance on payment Of $12," said the
attorney.
Mr.. Locke drew a chair up to the
table. took his check book from his
pocket, made out a check for S12 and
handed 1t over. The case was at
once discontinued and Mr.. Locke had
the right Of way.
He had only two or three witnesses;
there was no defence, and in half
hour he was on his way back to his
office.
