The Rush of q She'll.

AS shell rushes through the air at
the rate of 1000 miles an hour it gets
heavily charged with electricity by
friction, says London Answers. 1t parts
with it to any good conductor it meets
on the way, doing terrible execution.
Passing in front Of British soldier, a
big shell gave him such a shock that
he instantly fell dead.
In one of our wars two officers, stand
ing side by side. saw shell coming.
They stood apart, and it passed be-
tween them without touching either.
But one officer lost the sight of both
eyes, and the other instantly became
blind in one and soon lost the other
also.
In another battle a soldier had just
stopped to help a fallen comrade when
a shell passed over his back. He fell
forward quite disabled. and for months
after ne could not stand erect.
A curious accident of similar kind
happened to an American officer in the
Cuban war He was galloping across
the field when a shell whirled past in
front of him. His horse rolled over,
and he himself became unconscious.
On recovery he found that neither self
nor steed had been wounded, and he
knew that they had simply sustained
a severe electric shock.

The jefferson Bible.

'"The jefferson Bible in the Smith
sonian institution" says the Washing
ton correspondent of the Chicago Rec
ord, "has never been printed. The
manuscript remains as it left Jeffer-
sons hands, and. although several per-
sons have proposed from time to time
50 print it, no one has ever done So.
The Bible consists only Of the teach
lngs Of Christ, extracts from the Cos
pei arranged in chronological order
from his birth to his ascension, and
nothing else. All controversial pas
sages are left cut"

CONCERNING 1LL1TERACY.
%I+| III%


The Raleigh Post says We
have been told that some men
illiterate themselves, were much
concerned over the possibility of
the Acknowledgement of their sons
after 1908 who may not be able to
read and write at that time.
We are glad they are cincerned
1t is one Of the best signs Of the
times. A man who is concerned"
now about what may happen to
his son eight years hence should
the latter not be able to read and
write will be "concerned'' enough
during those eight years to see
that he learns to read and write.
It IS those who are not
concerned whose sons have most
to dread. There is not boy in
the State, Of either race, who
cannot learn to read and write
in eight years, even we're he not
more than six years old today;
and should have no more than two
months opportunity per year for
the eight years. There may be
some white fathers who would
undertake to prevent them now
from being taught, but this
number IS very small, surely.
But grant there are some such,
must all the remainder Of the
population Of the races, continue
to submit to the conditions from
which the white people are trying
to escape permanently because Of
a few men who will not permit
their sons to avail themselves Of
the opportunity to be taught
which the people provide?

the train fer Philadelphia.
When well on the way, he stopped

Mr.. Bryan made a real genuine
stump speech in Wisconsin the
other day. He visited a lumber
camp and on being invited to test
his experiences With the ak he
complied, and quickly felled a
threefoot pine. Then being, asked
for a speech, he mounted the
stump Of the tree he had just cut
down and gave his hearers good
Democratic doctrine for few
minutes.
If all the rest CT the stump
speakers were compelled to cut
down a tree and then speak from
the stump, we'd have less political

A singula accident occurred
near Juliet, Ca, few days since.
A flying pigeon collided with a
Southern Railway train which was
coming at high speed. The beak
of the pigeon broke the glass in
the locomotive cab and SO great
was the velocity of the bird that
the window was not shattered but
round smooth hole was made
similar to that caused by a bullet
when fired through glass. The
bird was instantly killed, but in

PIGS with Croup

F. M. B., Rushville, o.: | have nine
teen head of Poland-China shoats a lit
tie over four months old, says National
Stockman. They have been running
on good clover all summer and nave
been fed a little corn twice a day. They
are in good shape, will weigh between
~ and 100 pounds, have plenty of
fresh running water, and a good, dry
place to sleep in rainy weather. Some
of them have been ailing. They are
suddenly seized with a terrible Wheel
Ing and some cough. They have to
keep their mouths open to breathe. and
can be heard several rods. When first
taken l noticed two of them vomit a
little in coughing. They don't seem to
be very sick, but can't eat for a day or
two on account of hard breathing.
There also seems to be a kind of
phlegm in the throat. -Four have been
sick, two got well in about a week. n
is better, and the other has just taken
sick.
Answer: The symptoms that you
give indicate that your pigs are attack

this as well as children. In bad cases
the pig needs treatment similar to the
child. A tub Of water as hot as can be

vided and the pig put into it for ten or
fifteen minutes when there is danger OF
~suffocation. In milder eases, yet Sc

Facs. Against Dnutlon separators.

BRASS hAA@ADA SOA&
A Washington, D. G., correspondent
of the Farmers Review writes: The
department Of agriculture has recently
been preparing some matter on cream
separation by dilution. The various
gravity or dilution separators placed
upon the market have caused consid-
cradle general discussion of the sub
Ject and at the New York Cornell sta
ton the subject of patents on these
"separators' was investigated and
practical trials were made of several
of them. In all of the cans the separa-
ton of cream depends upon gravity, and
the designation of them as separators
is misleading inasmuch as that term is
by common usage applied to contriv-
ances In which the cream is separated
ny centrifugal force. 1t is stated that
the patents granted on these cans
cover unimpottant details of construc-
tlon, and that anyone desiring to use
THIS process Of doubtful utility is free
to do SO without let or hindrance from
the holder Of any patent-right what
ever"
In the practical tests at the Cornell
station, dilution with water between
5O and 80 degrees Fair, gave results
approximately the same as those OBJ
tanned by deep setting in ice water with
a Cooley can. With milk from cows
comparatively fresh, cold, deep setting
gave considerably better results than
the dilution method. After a two
weeks trial of a dilution separator by
he Michigan station the verdict was
mot only was the loss excessive fiat
c%ontent) but the skimmilk thus di-
luted with SO much water could not be
fed to advantage and the cream soured
rapidly.
One hundred and twenty trials OF the
same separator" were made at the
Vermont station. which reports "The
gravity separator left in the skimmilk.
IL per cent of the fat Of the mixed
milk, 40 per cent Of the Ayrshire milk
and IL per cent of the fat of the strip
per milk. The centrifugal separator
left between l and 2 per cent of the
fact of these milks behind in the
skimmilk."

1t was hardly to be supposed that
the poultry business would come into
the sphere of great commercial move
ments and concentrations. But some
thing of this nature seems to have
taken place in Europe. Within a few
years there has bean q marked tend
ency to eliminate the small poultry
enterprises and suDpiant them with
large oneA. Some capitalists have been
buying poultry In Italy, taking it to
Belgium GnA ~RarcsAiAE It OUT in lots

The variety Of birds mostly purchased
in Italy Is Brown Leghorns. The
