WOULDN'T DRINK MILK.
story of a Calf That Grew Cp ON Wa.
ter and Grass and Developed
Into Good Cow.

We once raised calf that never
learned to drink milk, writes con-
tributor to National Stocl1man and
Farmer. 1t was the only case of the
sort l ever heard of and we naturally
supposed that it would die, for by no
possible means could it be taught to
drink any milk, more than just to taste
of it. 1t grew very thin, even before
we gave it up, but as nobody wanted
the job of killing it, we turned it into
the field and let it take its chances.
After that it lived somehow, on grass
and water, and it did not get any too
mich of either, for we had the bad
haoit of turning calves into a sort of
clearing that had neither water nor
feed in much quantity, expecting the
calves to live mainly on milk. The
calf that would not drink milk seemed
to fairly dry and shrivel up till it was
a sort of walking shadow. but it made
a great fight for life and came out in
the fall quite an animal, so that it
wintered with the other stock and be-
gan the second year about even. 1t
was a heifer and as a COW developed
the ordinary milking qualities of the
rest of the herd, none the worse. ap-
parently, for it's experience. Nobody
had any idea why it dislIsed milk.
cannot remember whether it began by
sucking the mother or not, but sup
pose that it did, as it was common to
allow the calf to remain With the COW
till the milk was fit to use.
MY experience is that all possible
effort to get calves to eating solid food
early is valuable. We take to late
summer or fall calves as we watch
them more. These can be taught to
eat grass early, and as it does not
physic them as the over-succulent
spring growth does, they can eat as
much as they will without injury.

4 DANGEROUS GAME.
A Roman Paatsme That Not rnfrs-

Roman Past.me That Not rnfrs-
 quently Ends in Tragedy.
 Italians in Rome have delightful little game, which is called the Pas satella. It is played mostly nowadays ln low drink shops, and as it leads fre- quently to murder, the police are anx- fous to stop it. Round a table some men are smoking. At the head sits man with flask Of wine and glass before him. He is the president Ok lhe party. All the company, fnciud- Ing the president, have paid for that flask of one, but not one of them can drink drop of it unless the president gives permission. He, however, may drink as often as he likes. When he passes the glass to another that other may drink until the president cries
 Stop!" and the glass is passed to the next. Sometimes the "Stop!" comes before a single drop is drunk. This is the fun for the others who are allow ed to drink. A good-natured president rarely repeats this joke, but it some- times happens that he has a grudge against one of the men, and then the unfortunate victim sits the whole ev- ening, smoking and frowning. while he sees als the others drink but himself. This is making an "0lmo" of him! And woe to president who would make an "Olmo" of the same mar twice, for he would soon have knife run across his throat. It is the ire. quency of such 6 tragic end fiat causes the police to try to prevent the game when possible.

Battle Between Two Grersome Sight,

 A plague of the octopus is reported at Ostend, and the age-famous oyster beds Of that resort are in serious dan ger This visitation is unusual, for the octopus is usually found in the gulf of Mexico, along the coast of southern California, or in Alaskan waters. Some of those in the gulf measure as much as twenty-one feet across the body their arms stretching out infinitely it seems, to their prey. They do not at tack men as a rule, but there have been many fieree c0mbats when an unfortun- ete fisherman happened to hook one. An ichthyologist has only lately made study of a small octopus three feet ill diameter. It was placed in tank, and the scientist put in one finger Im- mediately one of the eight great feelers came toward it, followed by the others These feelers, armed with powerful suckers, attached themselves firmly to the mans finger and hand, and made no further movement until he tried to withdraw it. Then they held all the tighter and the little mouth spouted forth it's inky fluid to distance of two feet. At last he released his hand with an effort and tried to touch the body of the octopus. AS he did so it changed colors in raPid succession, passing from black to yellow, and then seemed to be all covered with black spots. Another octopus of the same size was placed in the tank, and then was a battle royal The sixteen arms writhed and twisted, the water was stained black by the elected fluid, and it was thrilling sight 10 behold the entangled feelers, wrapped around each others bodies. After little the weak CT of the two withdrew his arms, the other released him, and the beaten monster drew himself into corner to nurae his wounds,
