Having a Supply of Nitrooen.

There is little doubt at the present
time but what one of the cheapest
ways to supply nitrogen to our crops
is through the manure of well-fed ami
mails. heterogeneous feeding stuffs have
been plainly shown, both by expert
ments and by practical feeders, to
nave marked effect in increasing the
amount of milk, and at the same time
their use has proven economical. Ex-
perlments made at the New Jersey
station, which are being followed out
Tor series of years, show that the
manure from cows having a nitrogene-
Gus ration produces larger crops than
that from cows having a carbonaceous
ration; thus the double value of feeds
rlch IN nitrogen is clearly shown.
" mere a profitable class of live stock
8 Kept and heterogeneous foods are
freely used, the farmer may depend
argely upon his manure supply as n
source of nitrogen, and let the pur-
'hased plant food be mainly phos-
'horic acid and potash, which will
'ost only one-third to one-half as much |
yer pound as nitrogen.-C. s. Pbelns

Too Many Write lIIeglbly.

The severest criticism upon illegible
writing on record was made by an
English writer recently, who said:
There are vast number of people
who seem to take positive pleasure
in signing their names-and, for that
matter, writing a whole letter-so that
no one can read it. Women are, per-
haps, the worst offenders, but they 90
not transgress so much with regard
to their signatures as men. Nobody
has any business to give other people
the trouble of having to decipher HERO
glyphics; and if only we all had the
courage to ignore communications thai
give trouble to read we might at least
make folks write clearly, If not pref
tily. Unhappily, handwriting IS I'M
doubtedly characteristic, and the worst
writer's usually have the loosest
minds, with the result that illegible let
tiers are almost invariably incoherent
ana ungrammatical."

Dog Mail Carrier

Out In Kansas, where so many things
are different, there is big st. Bernard
mail carrier. He lives in one of the
little "cross roads" towns, where the
only store, which is also the postoffice.
Is thirty rods from the railroad track.
The train always goes whizzing by at
a good rate of speed, whistling as it ap
prOaches. Nep hears the whistle and
hurries to the crossing and waits for
the coming of the mail. The mail clerk
kicks the leather bag out of the car
door and it falls somewhere in the vi.
cinity of the road. Nep at once goes to
the sack and carefully taking it by the
middle, so that neither end will drag
on the ground, walks sedately TO the
store, where he deposits his burden in
a safe place.
He does this every day, in spite of the
weather, and the whole country knows
and is proud of the dog mail carrier.
Nep is four years old, is two feet sew
en- inches in height and weighs go
pounds. He has no difficulty in carry
ing the sack, though the mail is often
very heavy, with the weekly papers
from the county seat, for his teeth are
strong and he has carried over 1OG |
pounds as a testsof his strength.

Pruning Trees.

PERSONS who engage in heated arcu
ment ON the subject OIL pruning ar
usually talking about different sub
Jects. Nothing is more common in bor
ticultural discussions than controver
sizes respecting the proper season II
winch to prune; yet the proper season
depends on whether one has in minf
the healing of the wounds, or the pro
duction OF fruit, or the production OF
wood. Persons will cut off a limb. i,
the wound heals well, the season is
SAID to have been right; If it does moi
neal, the season was wrong. The man
experimental; what greater evidence
could be asked?
Now the fact is that the hea ing of a
wound depends more on the wav in
which the cut is made and it's position
on the tree than on the season of tho
year. Long stubs heal slowly or not
at all, no matter what the season:
wounds made close to the main branch
or trunk mot beyond the ''bulge'D heal
quickly. Wounds on vigorous limbs
neal more quickly than those on side
or weak limbs. Other things being
equal, wounds on fruit trees heal hest

Pruning alone cannot be depended
on to make tree fruitful. 1t is ONLY
one OF the means of making it bear:
other means are good soil. thorough
tlilage, proper varieties, spraying for
insects and fungi. But when the tree

THE BEARS OF KADIAK
They're Monsters, as Big as An Ok and Very
Fierce.

The biggest bears in the world are
to be found on Kadiak Island, in the
Gulf of Alaska, south of the great
shoulder of territory that stretches out
into the Pacific, and DIR. Frank Baker
of the Smithsonian Institute, has sent
| ElwOod Hofer, well known guide
and hunter of the Yellowstone Park.
to catch one or more of those great
monsters for the National Geological
Park. The Kadiak bears are of the
polar breed, perfectly white, with
long, heavy fur, and at full growth are
twice as large as the ordinary black
bear of the Rocky mountains, weigh
ing from 2,4OO to 1900 pounds and
the biggest carnivorous animals liv-
ing. The tracks they leave in the snow
have often measured fifteen inches
long and ten inches wide. They are
very savage and fight desperately
when attacked. Several have been
killed, and the skins have been brought
to this country, but no Kadiak bear
was ever captured alive.
Dr. Carlton II. Bean, the ifs expert,
who is in charge of the department of
fisheries at the Paris exposition, while
making an exploration of the fishing
resources of Kadiak Island last year,
saw good many of these bears, and
describes them in graphic terms. He
says that while climbing q rocky hill
one day he saw large drove of them
playing like so many lambs. There
must have been $50 or 200 in the
bunch, he says, and some of them were
enormous.
Elwood Hofer takes with him to
Kadiak trap which he has used with
great success in catching wild animals
in the Yellowstone. The trap itself
weighs about three tons. and is sent
in sections to Kadiak, where Hofer
will take it into the interior, set it up
and bait it with honey or a pig, if the
latter can be obtained. Bears are I'M
fond of pork, and pig |
when imprisoned in a trap makes a |
demonstration which attracts the at
-ention Of the bears at a longer dis
lance than the odOr of the honey. The
bear is usually very shrewd animal.
