CATTLE THAT NEVER DRINK.
SurAuee.

An English exchange says ::
There are hundreds of horses and
thousands of cattle 10 the Ha-
waIian Islands that never take a
drink of water through out the
whole course Of their lives. On
all islands the upper attitudes of
the mountains are given up to
cattle ranges. The cattle run wild
from the time they are born until
they are sent to the SIaug hterl
house. Except possibly two or
three months in the rainy season,
there are no streams or pools of
water in any part where the cattle
range, but everywhere there grows
a recumbent, Joined grass known
by the native name of manila.
This is both food and drink.
Horses and cattle grazing Oh it
neither require water nor drink it
when offered.

County Horticultural Society by f. Pancoast.l
Every family in Kansas that owns
farm or town lot can have plenty
of plums for home use We are in
vited to have our talk on the question
of the method best suited for our
climate to obtain the best result with
the least expense of time and labor.
Selection of place to plant is first to
be done. The native wild plums of
Kansas were a success in the early
times. They always selected the low
bottom soil we'll drained by river or
stream. We are told that "nature
never makes mistakes" but the end
she tries to accomplish are so often at
