Germany and American Meat.

Uer1HdHy 0nO american meat,
The department Of agriculture is still
working on the problem Of German re-
strictions on u export meats, says
The Breeders Gazette. 1t presents a
case very difficult of solution, because
the restrictions are allegedly rested on
hygienic grounds, whereas there is
ample reason to believe that a desire
to protect the German producer lies at
the bottom Of the embargo. Notwith-
standing this, our government officials
are determined to make out a good
case for the purity and wholesomeness
Of u meats, and as one step in that
plan it has been decided to send to
Germany a practical working exhibit
of our methods Of meat inspection, in
Guiding the instruments used in micro
scopical examination Of pork for
trichinm. 1t is believed that an ex-
hibit Of this kind will carry some
weight and may induce a modification
Of the severe restrictions now imposed
on our exprEts.

Pure Bred Stock For nrcca,pv.

At present there is great demand for
good cattle, and there seems to be a
diversity of opinion as to what consti-
tutcs good cattle, writes A. C. Sanford
in The Breeders Gazette. IL we take
a trip to any Of the state fairs, we
there see a lot Of very fat stock-in
fact, some very much overdone, so
that the flesh is hard and bunchy.
These are represented as breeding
stock. and they are pleasing to the eye,
and the country visitors eXclaim:
"What large, nice animals these are.
I must have some Of them" OF course
If they purchase they pay a large
price. and then they like to have folks
say, "What fine cattle Mr.. So and So
has purchased" This all seems very
nice. but another problem soon arises.
The cattle soon grow thinner when put
on ordinary r~ations, and the chances
are that the stock soon looks common
and often are worthless for breeding
purposes. Now, the former owner Of
the stock demonstrated it's early ma
turity, feeding qualities, etc.. which
was right, but the buyer is greatly
fooled if he thinks that show stock
will keep in show condition all the
while.
1t seems to me that the place to
demonstrate the qualities Of stock in
tended for meat would be at q fat
stock show and Of dairy stock at the
milk and butter test and at fairs where
breeding stock is exhibited in it's nor
NAL condition, as it naturally is when
taken from pasture or ranch without
grain feeding. Let COWS be shown
with the greatest number Of their
produce. also sires with their get, and
If under these conditions they make a
good record then let them be classed
as good stock. Barnum once said that
people liked to be deceived, and it
seems as If it were true, for my ex-
perience is that the latest and lar
gest stock are sold first and for the
largest price, and often purchasers
leave the best behind because they are
thin in flesh and Of course not so pleas
ing to the eye. The COW that is a reg
ular breeder is apt to be thin unless
highly fed, and the same is true Of
other animals. 1t is not uncommon to
see a fine young thing beside it's moth
er, and to me this demonstrates the
value Of the dam.

A jolly Funeral

An Italian doctor named Louis Cor

fury, left some curious instructions as
to the manner Of his burial. This gen.
tleman, by his will. forbade his rela-
lions to weep at his funeral on pain of
being disinherited and appointed him
or her who should laugh the longest
and loudest the principal heir and leg
atee. Not stitch of black was to be
displayed either in the house in which
he should die or in the church in which
he should be buried. They were both
to be strewn with flowers and green
boughs ON the day of his funeral. In
stead Of the tolling of bells lively mu-
sic was to accompany his body to the
church, and so minstrels were to march
with the clergy sounding their flutes,
trombones and trumpets. The bier
was to be carried by ~ manageable
girls clothed in green, to each of whom
the testator bequeathed sum of mon
ey for her dowry. Lastly, no one in
the procession was to wear black. All
these orders We're absolutely carried
into effect.-Household Words.

"Norma" and Liberty.

substitute for it the word .lealtas
loyalty. Signor Ronconi, the
famous baritone and a great public ia
yorite. having, in the ardor Of his role,
forgotten the above mentioned emenda-
ton, was imprisoned for three days in
order to refresh his memory.
Not long after, singing the line in the
"Elisir d'Amore" describing how a
peasant enlisted, ''Vende la liberia, 81
fe soldato" Gle sold his liberty to be
soldier, he waggishly altered it to
"Vende la lealta, 81 fe soldato." This
variation in the text was received with
lively applause by the public, who al,
ways warmly welcomed anything that
savored of political opposition.
The next day the poor singer was
summoned by the head of the police t.,
receive a reprimand for having said
that loyalty could be solo, to which
Ronconi replied by observing that a
few days before he had been taught in.

Straw Horseshoes.

Straw is put to strange uses in ia
pan. Most Of the horses are shod with
straw. Even the clumsiest of cart
horses wear straw shoes. In their
case the shoes are tied around the
ankles with straw rope and are made
of the ordinary rice straw, braided so
that they form sole for the foot about
half an inch thick. These soles cost
about half penny per pair, and when
they are worn out they are thrown
away. Every cart has stock of fresh
new shoes tied to the horse or to the
front Of the cart, and in Japan it was
formerly the custom to measure dis
lance largely by the number of horse
shoes it took to cover the distance. So
many horseshoes made days jour-
ney, and the average shoe lasted for
about eight miles Of travel. 7

Suicides. and Cro..ro.A..

1t has been suggested that suicides
We're buried at crossroads because It
was usual to erect cross at such
places. Those who were excluded from
holy rites were buried there as the
place next in sanctity to consecrated
ground. 1t was an old superstition
that the devil danced at crossroads
and that the erection Of cross thereat
would prevent such unseemly prac-
tees. From this or some other super
stition, such as the fear that his ghost
might walk the earth, arose the Gus
tom of driving stake through the sui
cide's body.
These plausible theories have gained
many advocates, but it is more likely
that burial at crossroads was intended
as mark Of indignity.>> The temples,
or rather affairs, of the heather leu
tons were mostly at the junction Of
crossroads. The place of execution
was there, and criminals were sacri-
iced to the gods; hence suicides were
buried at the crossroads to give as
strong an impression as possible of
heather burial Probably, too, the pub
licity of such spot, which insured the
fact that a great number Of people
would become directly aware of the
degrading consequences of the crime,
had good deal to do with it's selec-
ton.
A curious fact in this connection is
to be found in Plato's Laws (book tx,
chapter 12). The murderer Of any Of
his near kin, after being put to death,
was cast out of the city, naked, in an
appointed place where three roads
meet, and let all the magistrates, in be-
half of the whole state, carry each
stone and hurl it at the head of the
dead body"

IN MEMORY OF FRANK KELLER.

The following verses were handed us
with request that we publish them.
They are written by dear friend of
the deceased.
frankie sleeps from care and sorrow,
Pain and sin forever free;
Still we mourn when called to part with
One so fair and bright as he.
Little did we think last Sunday
AS we talked with him so free,
That before Monday evening
He'd be in eternity.
But death S angel came that morning
And in gentle tones spoke he,
frankie, all your cares are over,
have home prepared for thee.
To that home now will lead you,
1t is far beyond the sky:
Where we'll hear sweet voices singing -
Glory be to God on high
Then he SAID Farewell brothers, sisters
And my friends both large and small,
And my dear and loving parents,
must leave you one and all.
Parents dear, of course you'll miss him.
You'll never again know Frankie's love,
But remember God has called him
And some day you'll meet above.
Dear and loving sisters, brothers.
And his friends heart-broken too.
All will miss this noble frankie.
Who has vanished from our view
Farewell. farewell, beloved frankie
With bitter tears we'll lay you low,
To sleep through all the weary years.
No more life's tears and cares to know
Sleep on, we would not break thy rest,
Nay, thouhg we loved you, oh so we'll,
Gods will be done, He knoweth best,
With him we leave thee, dear frankie,
farewell
