TURKEYS DESTROY GRASS HOPPERS.
A Kansas Farmer Has Solved Difficult
Problem.

Necessity has made the Kansas farm
er so energetic and enterprlsing that
lack of rain, dryness of soil AMI grass
hoppers-the bane of the existence OF
the pioneer Kansas farmer-have no
terrors for the farmer of 1900.
If a sufficiency of rain seemed to
guarantee good crops to the farmer OF
fifteen years ago, be still ran the FISK
of having bis crops partially or COM
pletely destroyed by grasshoppers.
1t has remained for the fertile brain
of Saline county farmer to devise the
following efectual method OF exterml
mating grasshoppers, viz: BY raising
flock of 1000 turkeys and renting
them out at $25 per day.
The name of the man who is the
father of this new industry is Finch,
one of the farmers of prosperous Saline
county. Finch says the grasshoppers
have been SO numerous in his district
this summer as to do considerable
damage to all crops. He has a drove
of 1000 young turkeys, and be soon
discovered that his poultry was more
than match for the grasshoppers. The
turkeys destroyed the hoppers almost
as fast they could light on his premises
and before they had time to work any
destruction.
Presently Finch's neighbors noticed
that his fields continued green and
luxuriant. while others were barren in
spots, and they investigated. When
they found out about Finch's turkeys
a few of the enterprising farmers be
gan to negotiate for the use of the
flock. Finch proceeded on the theary
that 100 turkeys were as valuable as
farm hand and accordingly fixed
rental of 50 so per day for each 100
turkeys. The entire flock is in de-
mand, and Finch derives revenue OF
$25 per day on his investment.

CRADLE COST $4,000.
The One Made for NapoIeon's Son Seems
Modest In These DAYS.

Among the articles which seems to
have excited the interest of the very
early foreign correspondents at the
Paris exhibition is a magnificent cradle,
that of the infant sOn of Napoleon the
Great by his second marriage, which
cost 81, 200, but even in very modern
times in Great Britain, that price for
cradle has been exceeded over and over
again.
The late Duke of Hamilton gave to
his near relation, the Princess OF Mon
AGO. cradle that was made in London
at cost of nearly 81, 900. ths main fea-
ture of the ornamental work at the
head of the article being of gold and
turquoise. with gold and aluminium as
the constituent parts of the remainder.
Certain gentlemen of Sheffield, to the
number of a score. presented to the
present Duke of Norfolk and the Ouch
ess a cradle til at cost over sc. 600. when
the heir to the title was born. On the
cradle tine arms of the family are
beautifully worked out in gold and
precious stones, and all extraordinary
feature of the whole cradle is its
strength and lightness com bined.
Only a very few years ago, when the
South African Rand boom set in.
certain speculator found himself in the
possession of large paper fortune.
He went to great London firm and
had a cradle made at cost of $75 900.
Disaster attended his speculations
within comparatively short period
after the cradle was delivered, and
when creditors literally drove him out
of his mansion his wife and maid
migrated into apartments, along with
baby's clothes and cradle.
This latter was broken up, no pur-
chaser of it as whole being forth
coming, and the resulting gold and
gems realized nearly half the cost of
the whole cradle.-Stray Stories.

Kept Inside Her Room For IS Years.

In the long ago summer OF 1885
Phoebe Meeks, golden haired and blue
eyed, was admitted to be the prettiest
girl in the little village of Brookville
Ind. She had many suitors, but Had
lev johnson was the favored one. The
two went to Sunday-school picnic to-
gether one day in July. 1885. and be-
fore they got home they quarreled.
Phoebe Meeks went back to the village
alone. She retired to her room at once
and since that time not living soul
has ever seen her outside of it. In
fact. the only person who has ever laid
ewes on Phoebe Meeks since that fate
full Saturday is her sister, who lives in
her house with her and conducts all
the business of the household with the
outside world.
Hadley johnson did not give up his
sweetheart easily. He called often at
the Meeks residence, only to be told
that Peebe could not see him. Final
ly be went West, settled in Utah and
grew rich and prominent Fifteen
years ago, after so years OF enforced
silence, the two Meeks sisters fell into
financial straits. Hadley johnson
heard of it and he came as fast as trains
would carry him to offer help But SO
years had only made Phoebe more oh
durate. She would not see him nor
accept any assistance at his hands. He
went back to his Western home and
the Meeks "girls" opened a millinery
shop in the old homestead. Still none
ever saw Miss Phoebe, though it was
said that her deft fingers did most OF
the work. Now. after 65 years of vol
untary and solitary imprisonment. she
is seriously i'll and is not expected to
live, and all Brookville Ia talking about
the forgotten romance and wondering
| if the secret of her life will at last be
revealed.

MASON AND DIXON LINE.
The Historic Boundary Being Resur-
yeyed.

Early in September the resurvey OF
the Mason and DIXON boundary line
between Pennsylvania and Maryland
will be begun. The commission bav-
ing control of the work will meet with
in short time to arrange the prellmi-
naries.
Captain G. H. Sinclair, whose most
recent work IN this line was the survey
of the California. Nevada line, dis
tance of $50 miles. marked the bound
ary with granite posts three feet in
length. They did not make vely
imposing showing, as two of the three
feet were under ground, but Captain
Sinclair considers them very servicea
able stones.
1.-The taller the monument, "he said,
"the more likelihood OF frost and 9TH
er agencies causing it to tilt, thus mar
ring the accuracy of the marking"
1t is probable that these stones will
be used in the Mason and Dixon mark
ing, about the only inscription VIII De
"P" on the Pennsylvania side and an
IN" on the Maryland side, together
with reference to the authority un
der which the resurvey is to be made.
The stones with which the greater
portion of the Mason and DIXON line
is now marked were brought from
England. In the western part OF
Maryland and in West Virginia, how
ever, mounds of earth and stone were
heaped up to a height of perhaps eight
feet. That work was done in 1857 yet
in 1855 they were sill two feet or more
above the level of the ground. and were
serving their purpose fairly we'll. The
surveyors had cut great vistas through
the woods along the boundary line as
they progressed, and these remained
with much distinctness."
