slowly. When this can was empty the
mill would go in gear and pump the
tank full. The overflow pipe from the
tank would fill the can and the weight
of the water would pull the mill out of
gear After an hour or so the water
would leak out SO the mill would again
go in gear, and thus the business was
kept up all the time. Should but little
water be used the mill would only run
long enough so the overflow would fill
the can and the mill would be thrown
out of gear"

BUFFALO FOR MARKET.
Texas Cattle company Has Entered In

Texas Cattle Company Has Entered Into
the Business Extensively.
Most people are Of the belief" re-
marked Sheriff Taylor oe Sherman,
Texas, as he leaned against the desk
at the Clarendon this morning and
shaded his eye against the clerks dia-
mond stud, that the American bison
is an extinct animal, bus that is great
mistake. 1t is true that in comparison
with the numbers of the beasts that
used TO thunder over the western plains
the numbers now to be found are insig
nificant, but yet there are some in ex-
lstenee, and there are measures now
under contemplation for the pi,opaga-
ton of the species, so that in time they
may become reasonably common again.
Il know of only one herd of buffalo
in Texas-that belonging to Mrs. Mary
Goodnight of the Goodnight Cattle
Company. in the panhandle. Her herd
comes down from the original stock
of the staked plains. Several years
ago the herdsmen of the Goodnight
pastures captured three calves, and
after demonstrating them as much as
their natures would permit proceeded
to breed them. This was done as
pastime, and without any special pur-
pose in view until the race began to
go out of existence, and then it was
decided to go into the inbreeding as an
industry. So the herd has grown until
now it numbers about seventy, sixty
or more being full grown and healthy
specimens Of the species.
Il have often seen these animals ON
the Goodnight range, and they certain
ly bring to mind the old time on the
plains. The Goodnight people have the
means to 90 into the cultivation of the
buffalo on liberal scale, and in Texas
it is understood to be the purpose of
the managers for Mrs. Goodnight to
dispose of none of the stock for a pc
riod Of years, say twenty-five, when the
herd will number something like 5000.
Il am told that there are other herds
in the United States. Buffalo Jones of
Kansas has a large herd. He has al
ways taken great interest in the propa-
CATION of the animals and of late has
been working on a scheme to have the
United States Government set aside
large pasture for the exclusive range
of buffaloes, the breeding stock to be
contributed by Mrs. Goodnight, Jones
and any others who may have any of
the animals which they would be will
ing to part ith.''-Memphis Scinletar.

For DESTROYING weaviIs.

Bisulphide of carbon is used for de-
stroying weevil in wheat bins. Force
a tube to the bottom of the bin, pour
in about pint of the liquid, and cover
the bin. The gas is heavy and finds its
way to every portion of the bin. 1t is
a dangerous substance to use unless
care is exercised, as lighted pipe or
cigar will cause it to explode, even
when there is no fame. 1t is destruc-
tive of all insect life, but does not in
jure the grain.

Profit in Ynnnc Stock

The young animal makes a greater
proportionate gain than the adult for
the reason that it is growing, yet farm
ers sacrifice their young stock and fat
ten the matured animals. After an
animal has completed its growth it in
creases by accumulation of fat, a large
portion of the food going into the
manure. While 4 young calf may APP
parently consume a large proportion of
food, yet it increases accordingly. The
farmer who has platform scales, and
who will weigh the food and the calf,
will find that the young animal in
creases rapidly, and that the food is
yielding a profit

Hog Raising i'm Idaho.

Hog raising is becoming one of the in
dnstries in Idaho. There is money in
hogs raised there, as the animals are
fed on iucerne, waste potatoes and
wheat, SO that their meat is of the very
best. Quite q market is being opened
up for this class of stuff and San Fran

product of Idaho. To the credit of

THE SAME KIND HERE.

Have you ever nticed that nearly all
policemen get fat?'' asked the man who
keeps his eyes open. This would seem
to disprove the theory that walking in
the open air is a means of reducing
superfluous weight. I ave known new
policemen to start on their beats weigh
ing no more la 125 pounds. In six
months they would tip the scales at $50,
and in a year reach the 200 mark. It
must be the slow sauntering in the open
air that does it, for I ave noticed that
while policemen grow fat. the house
sergeants. who are confined to the
stations. are invariably thin. Those who
patrol the streets gain the maximum
weight in about three years. The
muscles then harden, and despite their
apparent burden of flesh. the men
usually develop great activity. One of
the best runners and jumpers I 10 is
a policeman who weighs nearly three
hundred pounds.-Philadelphia Record.

Captain Dreyfuss has been engaged to aid

mittances n i~nstructing them to obtain
any arms possible from Cuban sympath-

These propositions provoked "a hot dis
c%ussion, resulting in the resignation OF
fernando Cisneros, who organized and
held the presidency of the ava Junta.
He says the moneys heretofore collected
