THE SHEPHERD DOG,
When Properly Trained. He Is of In.
estimable Value TO General Farm
ers and stock Raisers.

My way is, first, to have pure bred
enough put it to work. If you have no
work for him to do you have no busi-
ness with shepherd dog. They must
have something to do. Take him with
you among all kinds of stock, and he
will soon get accustomed to the differ
ent duties that belong to him, and he
will become eager and anxious to do it.
If he is headstrong, or wants to go too
far, or go to the head instead of heels.
make a close-ftting halter of wool or
binder twine and have enough string
to let the dog go just as far as you want
him to go and no farther. Make him
stop a your command. BE promptand
resolute. but never whip or abuse:
chastise, if necessary, by pulling the
ears or cutting Il little. but be careful.
Teach him to have confidence in you
and in himself.
AS soon as you make him understand
what you want him to do help him to do
it as near right as possible. and caress
him, TO let him know he has done right
Always tell the dog what you want him
to do and make him understand, if pos
sible, before you start him out. and if
you are careful you can work him by
the motion of the hand if he is too far
away to hear your voice. The main
thing is to be patient. and, above all
keep your temper. Have but one boss
for the dog.
have two as fine bred sluts as there
are in the state. well trained. and one
dog, but he is too old now for much
good. l can take either of them and
drive more stock with less labor and
with less friction than if had six boys
or that many impatient men about. If
you will come and st"y with me one
week and see what good shepherd dog
can do. and is willing and glad to do.
you will be surprised. lean work them
half mile away If they can see my mo-
tions. They mind me at the first bid
ding. If horse. cow, hog or sheep
gets out of place he must get back,
whether ! am around or not. They
know what is right or wrong almost al
well as human being does. \ good
deal depends on the breeding of the dog
and the patience of the owner. The
shepherd dog is given up TO be he best

Command of Men

From one of the officers who re-
turned from Manila on the transport
Rio de Janeiro the facts were obtained
of a ludicrous adventure by Maj. Bell.
of the Thrty-sixth infantry. which
gives him place with kipling's heroes
who took Lungtungpen in the garb
that Adam wore before the fall.
1t seems that the major was taking
bath in creek near Manila recently
when the bugIe sounded for an attack.
body of insurgents had made sud
den attack and the whole of the ma
Jor's force was ordered out on the fir
ing line. Bell didn't wait to don his
khaki uniform, but grabbed his pistol
and rushed off to the head of his men.
They met Filipinos, and there was
a lively 15-minute scrap. in which the
foremost line came in for some pretty
fighting. The major emptied his pis-
tol among the insurgents, and then
found himself set upon by a huge
Tagalo, who was armed with bolo.
The major, who is q powerful man,
parried the natives first blow with bis
clubbed revolver, and then crushed the
Filipino's skull with a good, straight
blow. 1t was only after the fight tha,
he realized he was in extreme .undress
and he FASTENED TO get his uniform.

COLOR VERSUS QUALITY.
why the Matter of Mere Beauty
should BE n Secondary Consider
alton to Bee-Keepcrs.

There has been quite rage for yellow
bees. and breeders in this country have
catered to the general demand to such
an extent that bees of the Italian race
are produced much yellower than those
found in Italy. But the tide seems now
turning, and the demand is rather for
bees that give large surplus than for
handsome bees. Z. Il. Root, editor of
Gleanings, says:
81 hope the race for color has had its
day; and while there have been several
specimens of bees that have been good
workers, as well as beautiful. the ma
jority of those we have tested have had
some bad traits, either in temper,
swarming propensity or lack of hardi-
ness for wintering. Let the matter of
color be only a secondary consideration.
Put first, ability to get money; second.
wintering qualities; third, disinclina-
ton to swarm; temper next, and color
last of all. But other things being
equal. should very much prefer gentle
bees if at the same time they can have
the other three desirable qualities. Col
or really amounts to nothing.
"Of color or markings it may be said
that, of whatever blood the queen may
be, she must be pure, whether Carni-
olan, black or Italian. a hybrid queen
with an ancestry of hybrids back ten
years might be able to reproduce her
kind without sporting toward either
the blacks or Italians. DR.. Miller has
such a queen. Her bees outstripped
everything else in the apiary last sea-
son, and he is going to use her for a
breeder.
"Hybrids are apt to be more or less
cross. 1t has been observed. | believe.
that the cross or ''snappy" kind are the
ones that produce results in honey. Did
you ever notice that il is often the
"snappy" kind ofpeople who can get out
a big days work, even though they are
not. perhaps. the most popular among
their fellows?"

The idea of O Crank,

There is talk of a continuous asphalt
road from New York to Chicago, via
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Cleveland,
etc. 1t is estimated that such a road
can be built for $4,O00,0OO, but where
the money is to come from is not stated.
No one wants toll road, and the sew
eral states are not likely to tax them
selves for such luxury, so it must be
the national government that is eX-
pected to foot the bill. The trouble
would be that every other section of the
union would Immediately demand a
similar road and in consequence the
expense would loom up so tremendous
ly that the whole project would have to
be abandoned. 1t is not likely that we
will ever get good roads on the whole
sale plan; they will come gradually as
all reforms do.

PALE BLUE AIR.
Color of the New Liquid Varies as
Much rs Wnter-An Interest,"
ing Experiment.

The color of pure liquid air is
beautiful pale blue. Before an east
ern college recently was exhibited
two samples of liquid air in glass
tubes; one was made from air which
had been washed to purify it from
dust, SCOT, carbonic acid and other
impurities. This, when condensed,
was pale blue liquid; the other
sample was made by condensing some
of the air of the lecture room in which
the audience was assembled, and was
an Opaque, blackish fluid, resembling
soup in appearance. 1t would ap-
pear as if condensed samples of air
might asford an easy means of COM
pairing different kinds of contamina-
ton. 1t may be possible some day
to supply the hospitals of tropical
countries where the natural air sup
ply is bad, and the necessity for
better one very pressing, with beau
tiful blue country air guaranteed alb
solutely pure. This can never be ac-
complished, however, until some
means have been provided for trans
porting liquid air to considerable dis
tances without enormous losses,
caused by its return to its former
state.

SACRED WHITE PEACOCKS.
Prove the Stnr Attraction at the Gem
trnI Park Too. New York City
Only Two in .mericn

Sacred white peacocks are the star
attraction at the Central park menag-
erie, New York city. The long-armed
gibbon, known as the missing link,
which for more than two weeks has
held the place of honor at the park
zoo, will take a back seat. 1t is said
there are only two white peacocks in
America. The strange peacocks have
been a part of a circus in Cincinnati.
Superintendent Smith heard of them
and arranged for an exchange. Cape
butfaloes are rarity in this country,
but the menagerie has several of them
and no freak peacocks. The circus
man finally consented to let the pea
cocks come to New York and to take
in exchange one of the cape buffaloes.
The white peacock is the albino of the

Of them are found outside of their ma
tive country. where they are consid.

Feeding Sunnower Seeds,

If the hens are not at first accustomed
TO sunfiower seeds, they will at first
refuse them. If SO, give them nothing
else until they eat them. Do not feed
the seeds every day; twice week is
sufficient. The difficulty is in separat-
ing the seeds from the heads. To do
this, have them in dry place until they
are thoroughly cured, then place them
on the barn floor and fail them, when
they will easily fall off. They may be

SIGNALS FROM GRAVE.
Device Of Frenchman Which Pre-
vents the Possibility of Being
Buried Alive.

The danger of being buried alive, ac-
cording to the statistics presented by
Emile Camis, the Partisan expert, who
has come to this country to exhibit a
device for preventing such accidents,
has aroused great interest in medical
circles. NJ. Camis lectured before the
Medico-Legal Society at the St. An
drews hotel, New York city. the other
night.
The manager of the hotel refused to
permit M. Camis to put up his ap-
paratus, which is called "karnice," and
the lecturer was forced to dispense
with the illustrations from life.
"karnice" is made up of a mechan-
ism by means of which any movement
in the coffin will ring an alarm. If
at the end of two weeks the alarm has
not been rung it is safe TO remove the
device from the grave.

peas and usually three or four are found
in each pod. The pods are short and
stout. nearly black in colorard covered
with coat of velvety hairs. The velvet
bean belongs to the same family as the
cowpea. 1t is a legume or .eguminous
plant, and like the cowpea. the velvet
bean is renovating plant, having the
power to enrich the land on which it
grows.
In any comparison of velvet beans
with cowpeas as a renovating crop.
there is one point in which velvet
beans are onspicuously superior.
When frost comes the vines and leaves
settle down together in such a way
that the force of falling rain is broken
and the network Of vines is so complete
that the leaves. the most valuable por-
tion, cannot be blown or washed away.
With cowpeas the case is somewhat diff
ferent, the bare stems standing erect
and affording no means of retaining the
leaves in place. On the other hand, bet
ter implements are required to turn un-
der vines of the velvet beans than to
plow under cowpea vines. 1t is not ad-
visable to attempt to grow this bean in

WANT AMERICAN FLOUR.
Will BE II Splendid Market for
Our Product.

William Mitchell Bunker, an Ameri-
never saw large loaves of bread until
we reached Blagovestchensk. The
bakers made them round and square.
Eighteen inches square or two feet
across are the popular sizes with the
peasants. Siberian -four is inferior,
very inferior, and to strike an average
it is mixed with American -four. After
ans eat them. the Siberian demand for
American -four is no mystery. The
soldiers are nearly all big fellows, and
l was so favorably impressed with
their rugged appearance that l asked
a Russian officer to name their rations.
The soldier gets daily three-quarters
of pound of meat, three pounds of
bread, porridge and cabbage soup, and
tea or tap. When maneuvering his
portion of meat is increased to one
pound. So the army also assists in de-
creasing the visible supply of flour and
increasing the demand for the Ameri-
can product.
THE Siberian consumption of flour
astonishes even after one has seen the
sacks stacked at Vladivostock. Every
boat and junk leaving that port, and
every craft leaving Nicolaievosk, the
great distributing point at the mouth
of the Amur river, carries to the in
terror -four brought from the Pacific
coast, and every steamer stopping at
village or woodpile leaves sacks of
-four. At Khabarovik We were puz-
zled at the floury appearance of steam
ers, barges and boats and the whitened
clothes of roustabouts and teamsters.
Our journey on the Amur river solved
the problem. The steamers dropped
-four every few hours, and peasants
who came to the riverside brought for
sale loaves of bread. as well as milk
and eggs. And the demand for flour
must keep pace with the growth of the
Siberian population"

of corn producers have brought out
the fact that over 20 important prod

distilled spirits, the demand for which
has increased greatly since the inven-
tion of smokeless powder. in the manu-

used. Among the other products made
from corn are mixing glucose, crystal

EGGS FOR HATCHING.
Is Not Killed and the Eg. Thus
Made Useless.

AS TO keeping eggs for Matching, the
incubator people remind us that the
yolk is specifically lighter than the al
bumen, and is buoyed up by it, and the
germ, which always lies at the top, is
only kept from pressing against the
shell by the weight of the denser al
bumen forming the chalaza, this hav-
ing tendency to drag the yolk down
and steady it. If the eggs are kept at
TOO high temperature, the albumen
will get somewhat fluid and the yolks
will be pressed upward against the
shell. and, if allowed to remain So
will become fixed to it. Any length of
time and temperature that would re-
suit in this would have killed the germ
and thus rendered the egg useless. The
more handling the egg has the quicker
this arrangement will be effected.
Place eggs for Matching in a basket or
box with regard to position. cover
with cloth to prevent undue evapora-
ton by direct exposure to the air, and
leave them undisturbed until wanted
They will be better than il handled
and turned. Any cloth will give suf.
ficient ventilation to keep the air
around the eggs sweet if the apart
ment is pure.-Plowboy and Country

Hints on Storing Potatoes.

The following plan for preventing
them from sprouting in spring will be
found useful when many are placed in
the cellar for family use; it destroys
the eyes or buds, after which they
never start, consequently the tubers do
not become shriveled and tough: Be-
fore placing them in the cellar leave
the tubers for an hour in solution of
sulphuric acid, about lA pints to 25
gallons of water, the whole being thor
oughly mixed; after removing from
this bath they should be spread out to
dry, then placed in barrels. The solu-
tion also prevents decay. Such potatoes
will never grow under any circum-
stances, SO those intended for planting
should not be SO treated.-Farmers'

NOTES FOR BEEKEEPERS.

Keep bees to make your honey, but
begin with only few hives.
Strong colonies protect themselves
from robbers and bee moths.
Young queens, like young stock of
any kind, are superior to old ones.
Bees are profitable because they gath
er up and store what would otherwise
be lost.
To avoid in and out breeding il is
well to introduce new blood from time
to time.
The point in favor of the Italian bee
is that it is the most prolific and is gen.
lie and energetic.
In rendering beeswax a tin, brass or
copper vessel should be used. An iron
vessel will darken it.
Comb honey will last for years if al
ways kept dry and uniformly at about
so degrees. Under these conditions it
will improve.-St. Louis Republic.
