Their praise or blame, according to indi-
vidual opinions Of such tendency.
Anyhow, it's rather funny, and that
makes it unnecessary even to wonder
whether the tale is true or not. Thus
it runs:
"Once while on a tour of inspection
General de Gallifet was invited to a
dinner given by several officers of near
ly as high rank as his own On prepar-
ing to return to his hotel at the end Of
the repast he was annoyed to find that
1t was raining heavily. AS he stood
hesitating in the doorway General Vim
cendon, then commander of brigade,
approached him and said, L have an
umbrella and If you wish will accom-
pany you home The offer was gra-
ciously accepted. Arrived safe and dry
at his own door, General de GaIlifet
turned to General Vincendon-an old
comrade, by the way-and coldly said,
General, you will consider yourself I'M
der arrest for eight days as a punish
ment for carrying an umbrella while
in full uniform. There are no docu-
ments to show that this somewhat SCI
we're decree was literally obeyed or not,
but one can hope, just for the sake of
che story, that it was.''

AduIterated Feeds.

The director Of the Maine experiment
station gives out notice that much adul-
terated feeding stuff has been sold in
Maine during the past six months I'M
der the names of winter wheat bran.
winter wheat mixed feed, etc, which
have heretofore been allowed to pass
without inspection and analysis. They
are found to contain refuse from broom
corn factories, corncobs and similar
materials, and instead of having, as
good bran should have, about 16 per
cent protein they have from 9.6 to II
per cent and thus are worth from less
than two-thirds to three-fourths the
value of pure bran. Hereafter such
goods must be branded and guaranteed
according to their actual composition.

SHORT NEWS STORIES.
The Late MIR. Hobart's Goidash--A
GaIIifet story-CecI1 Rhodes
and the Fair SEX.

when Vice President Hobart return
ed to Paterson from Normanhurst, he
brought with him large number of
goldfish. Although they had been re-
moved from a pond where they led
wild life, they soon became tame and
would readily come up to be fed. They
became so docile that when persons
put their hands to the surface Of the
water the fish would come up and nib
BILE at the fingers.
Mr.. Hobart amused himself daily
with the fish and gave them names
There was Mckinley, silver fish with
gold stripe down his side, and Bryan,
a goldfish with a silver stripe down
his side. General Miles was portly
fellow with bright silver tail. Then
there were Dewey, Sampson, SchIey,
Hobson and other well known charac-
tiers of the Spanish war. Sampson was
the most digniied, but he did not last
long. A cat seized him for a meal one
day as he came to the surface.

Irish potatoes are grown in hills or
ridges or in trenches, according to local
conditions, says the Philadelphia Ledg-
er. In New Jersey the trench gives
best results, except in very moist sit
uations. The reason in it is the roots
are deep down when started. AS the
plant grows the soil is drawn from
either side about it, letting it keep only
its head above until the level is reach
ed, when 1t is let grow, and the vigor
in it soon gives the leaf growth that
covers the soil and prevents the weeds
getting hold. Very early potatoes
come to market from New Jersey by
sproutfng the seed indoors in sand or
in moistened blankets or even in warm
cellars, cutting to the sprout, setting
in trenches in warm spots and when
there Is danger of frost covering the
head entirely over with the earth or
with straw. 1t is trouble, but for the
market gardener with the fancy trade
or the home grower with his little gar
den it pays.

Blended Flour.

AT an Illinois farmers institute an
object lesson was given in the value Of
blended flour, says The Rural New
Yorker. Wheat flour mixed with
cornmeal was made into biscuits,
which We're given away and eaten.
The use of corn with wheat cheapens
the flour without lowering its nutri-
tive value, and, if sold as blended
flour, it would supply an honest prod
uct at cheaper rate than wheat only
The corn producing states are natural
ly interested in any effort to increase
the use of their cereal. Only let it be
described as offended flour" instead of
as wheat alone. We now
have law compelling such flour to
be stamped and branded. Like the
oleo fraud, all these adulterators want
to make cheap counterfeit, TO be sold
as genuine article.

SOLDIERS in BATTLE.
The Peculiar Way Some Men Act
When They Arc wounded

When They Are Wounded.
If you take dozen soldiers as like
each other as peas so far as height.
weight, strength, age, courage and
general appearance go and wound them
all in precisely the same way, you will
find that scarcely any two of them are
affected alike
One man on receiving bullet in his
leg viii go on lighting as if nothing
had happened. He does not know. in
fact, that he now contains a bullet.
But perhaps in two or three minutes
he will grow faint and fall
Another man, without feeling the
slightest pain. will tremble all over.
totter and fall at once. even though
the wound is really very slight
A third will cry out in a way to
brighten his comrades and viii forget
everything in his agony. A fourth viii
grow stupid and look like an idiot.
Some soldiers wounded in the slight
est manner will have to be carried off
the field Others, although perhaps
fatally injured, can easily walk to the
ambulance Many die quickly from
the shock to the nervous system.
A very curious case is recorded in
the surgical history of the American
civil war in which three officers were
hit just at the same time. One had
his leg from the knee down carried
away, but he rode ten miles to the
hospital. Another lost his little finger,
and he became a raving maniac, while
a third was shot through the body
and. though he did not shed drop of
blood externally, he dropped dead from
the shock. New York Telegram.

wheat Brnn.

The farmer who grows wheat can
make good profit in selling his wheat
and buying wheat bran to feed out
says American Cultivator The pound
of wheat will nearly pay for two
pounds of bran, and the bran if sweet
and in good condition is worth more
per pound to feed to cows in milk
those soon to calve, to growing young
stock, sows in pig or for sheep before
lambing and while lambs are with
them than the whole wheat would be.
If it is not fattening or heating enough
at other times, the wheat can be sold
and corn bought and still leave a bal
ance in pocket. 1t is much like selling
the butter fat from the milk and feed
ing calves or pigs on skimmilk, which
is better for them and has not so high
a selling value. If more fat is wanted,
a little linseed meal or tiaxseed tea
will give it at less cost than butter fat.

st. Joseph, Mo-, Oct. 1S.-Govern-
ment officials in Washington who have
been carrying out Improvements on
the Missouri river appear to have
become hopelessly discouraged in bat
tling the swift and turgid wat ,rs.
Since the government ceased work in
this vicinity individuals and corpora.
tions have taken up the labor in DIS
peration. Millions of dollars worth
of property has been destroyed by the
shifting and treacherous currents Of
the "big muddy" in the past few years.
1t has been a case of hope deferred
that the government would discover
measures for checking the ravayes
If not wholly preventing them. Nat
tiers in this city lave reached crisis,
for the waters are rapidly reducing the
east bank of the river and valuable
property is melting away. A peculiar
feature that aids in the havoc Of the
water is the bottomless bed of quick
sand that nnderIies the soil in this
vicinity. As soon as the banks be-
come loosened tracts of earth so feet
ip width will often gradually sink un-
til it entirely disappears in the quick
sand. During the last week the cur
rent of the river has renewed with
vigor its attention to the east bank
and dozen homes have been rendered
worthless or disappeared in conse-
quence.
