Calling the Cow.

Professor George Hempl Of Ann Ar
Dor. Mich, has been investigating the
manner In which we call the cow and
otherwise talk to her in this country.
He finds eco boss" the normal call in
the North, and "co mully" frequent
In Maine and other parts Of New En-
gland. In the midland and the South
the most common call is "sook" or
"sook cow" and in the largest portion
Of our continent ''sook" is the normal
call to cows, while some diminutive
like ''sooky'' is used to the calves.

Winter ApD'es.

"AHteF app eSS
What cheer is there that is half so good,
In the snowy waste Of a winter night,
AS a dancing fire Of hickory wood
And an easy chair in its mellow light,
And pearmain apple, rudy and sleek,
Or Jenneting with a freckled cheek?
a russell apple is fair to view,
with tawny tint like an autumn leaf,
The warmth Of ripened cornfeld's hue,
Or golden hint of harvest sheaf;
And the wholesome breath of the finished
year
ls held in a winesap's blooming sphere.
They bring you a thought of the orchard
trees
In blossomy April and leafy June,
And the sleepy droning of bumblebees
In the hazy light of the afternoon,
And tangled clover and bobolinks,
Tiger lilies and garden pinks.
II you've somewhere left with it's gables
wide
A farmhouse set in an orchard old,
You'll see it all in the winter-tide
At sight of pippin's green-and-gold,
Or pearmain apple rudy and sleek,
Or jenneting with a freckled cheek.

Feeding wheat to Live Stock.

The old question of feeding wheat as

There have been many farm trials

Int such results have not been borne

IN at the various State experiment sta

Their results show that wheat pro-

Amount of Hay to Feed.

When hay or other roughage Is in
good condition. no more should be
placed before the cow than she will
consume with relish. This rule

Saving Seed.

When a farmer has some crop that
is particularly good the individual
specimens being large and Of good
form and apparently full of vitality, it
is advisable to save such specimens
for seed. Oftentimes, however, the
mistake is made of allowing the seed
to remain on the vine until it is over
ripe. Of course, the seed is not injured
in any way, but the loss comes from
the majority of it falling to the ground
before it can be gathered. A good
way of determining the proper cond1-
ton is to notice when q portion Of 1t
begins to fall to the ground and then
gather all Of it, putting it in some re-
ceptacle where the air and sun can
reach it and thus ripen it gradually.
Cabbage seed, for example, should be
gathered a day or two after the pods
begin to look red. The stalks should
be put on a tight floor in some place
where the sun and air have access.
Onion seed should be gathered when
ever one-third of the seed receptacles
have cracked open and these seed heads
should be spread in thin layers on a
lath frame in a dry and airy loft. Peas
and beans may be pulled when about
one-third begin to drop and the vines
should be placed in some location
where they will have the sun and air
and on tight floor where no loss will
occur when the seeds begin to drop
from the pods.-Indianapolis News.

Dual Purpose Cattle.

We believe that every farmer as far
as possible in the grazing, grain and
forage producing districts should use
and breed dual purpose cattle. Where
milk and butter are the sole objects,
as with those who keep cows in the
towns and cities and on the cotton
farms, the dairy breeds are Of course
preferable, but this class constitutes
only about one-tenth of the people
who keep cows. Farmers, as a rule,
should not only breed dual purpose
cattle, but should use only such breeds
as viii. while providing the requisite
amount of milk and butter, produce
also first-class beef animals. Farmers
should supply their local demand with
the best beef the country produces

MILLIONS IN NEED OF AID
Conditions Critical in the Famine Dis.
tricts of Russia,

~ tsSAo VI edSSbds
St. Petersburg, Dec. 10.-There is
some Improvement in the famine situa-
ton, but the conditions are far worse
than the government will admit.
Million of peasants, if not actually
starving, are in dire distress and in
need of aid.
The ministry of the interior has is
sued another statement about the fam
inc. Five and a half million pools of
winter grain have been purchased and
forwarded to the needy districts.
The total grain purchases are given
as exceeding Is 100000 poods, for which
100000 roubles have been expended
The entire fund so far distributed is
14,2SS,S29 roubles. The original esti-
mate of grains to relieve the famine
districts are now found to be excessive
and they have consequently been re-
duced in a number of cases. Condi-
tions in Asiatic Russia are still bad
and much relief will be sent there,
Requests for proclamations of famine
from Asiatic Russia were received
from SO districts and were granted in
%. Reports of conditions in famine
districts in the press are not nearly as
optimistic as the government reports.
Reports of disease and deaths are
more numerous in the press than those
of the ministry. Those employed on
public works will be granted the re-
duced immi Grant rates, for themselves
and material and grain will be distrib.
uted at greatly reduced rates.

COAL EXPORTS DECREASE.
Resumption of the Outcry Against the
British Export Tax.


New York, Dec 10.-The situation in
the British coal trade is causing good
deal of apprehension on the part Of
owners and merchants and there is a
resumption If the outcry against the
export tax which formed SO prominent
feature of Sir Michael Hicks -Beach's
last budget, says the London CORE
spondent Of The Tribune. Coal exports
have decreased by $4,000 tons during
the first 10 months of the present year
and the average number Of days work
ed by the colleries has generally fallen
off, while in most of the principal dis
tricts the supply is in excess of the
demand. The iron Industry, which us
'ually accounts for from $4,000 600 to
100000 tons q year, has greatly re-
duced its consumption, owing to the re-
duction in the number of furnaces in
blast. In the face, Of all this new col
leries which We're, begun and old ones
which were reopened during the boom
last year are increasing their capacity
and there Is every probability of con
siderably larger quantity of coal being
put on the market. Prices have not
fallen to anything like the level OF
three years ago. but the decline that
already has taken place leaves them
5 shillings below the high water mark
Of last year, and the tendency lis to
drop still lower s<f ,E..$'asf' @2E5 lT5 3

Chicago, Dec. 1O.-A dispatch to The

gle was here few days ago and took
luncheon with President Roosevelt,

Mr.. Carnegie has thought best to
create a national board to handle this
magnificent benefaction. President
Roosevelt will probably nominate such
board, or at least set in motion the
machinery which shall lead to a ma
tional organization.
Nicholas Murray Butler, who has
succeeded Seth Low at the head of Co
Mmbia college, has been here for two
days, guest Of President Roosevelt at
the White House, and he has aided in
perfecting the plans. Mr.. Butler has
long been one of the foremost cham
pions of university extension and it is
understood Mr.. Carnegie has had fire.
quent consultations with him concern.
ing the enterprise.
According to the plans prepared by
MT. Carnegie and his advisers the ma
tional organization is to have it's head
quarters in Washington, but it's oper-
ations are to extend through the Unit
ed States, the work to be carried on
in cooperation with universities every
where.

Corbin, KY, Dec. 10.-Frieuds of
Barry Howard, the mountain feud
leader made an attemTt to rescue
him as he was being taken to Frank
fort to answer an indictment charging
him with completely in the murder of
William Goebel, for which he had been
arrested by Sheriff Broughton and his
deputy, who got the drop on Howard
and his bodyguard after Turing them
into Pineville.
AS soon as Howard was arrested his
friends, who had protected him for
nearly two years, swore he should new
er be taken to Frankfort. A guard Of
rs armed men was maintained over the
prisoner while here and 10 men &C.
companied Sheriff Broubhton and the
prisoner to Frankfort.
When the train reached Pinevi1le
Sheriff Broughton and his posse board
ed it with the prisoner and we're given
one: of the coaches, which was locked
at both ends. At the same time three
men, friends of Howard, boarded the
engine. They covered Engineer John
Langan with pistols and commanded
him to back the train to Middlesboro
the intention being to rescue Howard
where his friends are greatest and
where the mountains afford the quick
est escape.
Only the resourcefulness of the en-
gineer saved the situation for the sheT
if. Taking advantage of an opportu
nifty when his guar1s we're otherwise
engaged he opened the throttle and the
train escaped the crowd of rescuers.

Chicago, Dec. 10.-Over confident

Prices in all grains broke jaggedly Ct

heavy all day, but now it began again

Brokers rushed disheveled into the pit,
buying, buying, buying; and May
wheat sold up to a new crop record
price at S3M cents. The rise seemed
to be genuine. for it held here we'll

pressure that had been going on all
day, May closed very strong at $3.50

Corn was also affected but not SO

Government Delays Announcing the

New York, Dec. 10.-A Pretoria cor
respondent of The Times says: ..'
There is much yet to be done in pro-
tecting the country by lines of block
houses before the British can hope to
clear the Beers away from the East
ern districts of the Transvaal. It is
found that b1Uckhouses mile or SO
apart are useless to prevent the pass
ing of Beers at night when they are
determined to cross. Nothing short
of blockhouses six or seven hundred
yards apart and connected by means
of formidable wire entanglements will
prove effective.
To thread the country in this way
says the correspondent, requires tdme
and men, but in the opinion of the
military authorities it is the only
method of dealing with an enemy who
refuses to fight openly. The British
public must therefore be patient
North of the Pretoria railway line, the
dispatch goes on to say, the Beers are
free from the British column. The
mountain ranges afford endless hiding
places for the enemy, supplies aTe
plentiful, and wheat which fnids It's
way all over the country is carefully
concealed for future use. 1t is impossi-
BILE to avoid this unless the Beers are

White Sulphur Springs, Mon, Dec.
10.-The fate of George Hayes and
party of three prospectors, who left
here to prospect in the Philippines in
1899, has been revealed in a letter just
received in the city. The party has
been missing since March, 1900, and
every effort to locate them has been
futile up to this time. Rev. j. c. Len
hart, formerly minister in Hawaii, re-
siding at Manila, was induced by
friends of the missing men to take up
the search. Diligent inquiry On his
part disclosed the fact that the party,
disregarding the warnings of the mill
tary men not to venture beyond their
lines of defense, had gone into the
mountains of Central Luzon. Later the
bodies of the four men were found lit
orally chopped to pieces by bolomen,
The heads and arms were severed
from their bodies and the bodies were
otherwise horribly mutilated.
Hayes and James Brown were identi.

PAYNE REVENUE BILL
Republican Leader of the House Pre-
pares Measure Fixing Tariff
for Philippines.
Applies Dingley Law tt Imports to this
Country and the Commissions
Schedule on Exports.
McLauriu- -Tillman Dispute is Discussed
by the Members of the Senate
at Session.

Washington Dec. 10-Chairman
Payne of the ways and means commit
tee has presented to his Republican
colleagues of the committee revenue
tariff bill for the Philippines, which he
had drawn to meet the conditions of
the recent supreme court decision.
The Republican members of the COM
mittee met at 10:30 O'Clock to continue
the discussion of the general subject.
The meeting was executive and was
preliminary to a meeting of the full
committee when the Philippine tariff
will be submitted to the Democratic
members and be voted upon. The
Payne bill is quite brief, with two
main features, viz: Applying the
Dingley law, as against Philippine ex-
ports to this country and applying the
Philippines commissions tariff sched-
ule to- goods entering the Philippines.
A further section grants a rebate of
customs tariffs on goods which have
paid an Internal revenue tax in this
country. There is no proviso in the
measure that it Shall be temporary,
SO that the rates, if imposed, would
be applicable until congress otherwise
acted. Id,
During the debate it developed that
Mr.. Russell (Conn.) and some other
Republican members strongly favored
the proviso, to the bill offered by Mr..
Payne by which the tariff rates would
be scaled down from Is to 20 per cent
on goods passing between the United
States and the Philippines. This was
urged on the ground that Great Brit
ain now had 40 per cent of the trade
of the Philippines and Germany and
other European countries held con,
siderable percentage, while the United
States had only about S per cent of the
trade. On this account it was urged
by Mr.. Russell that the United States
should have some concession as
against foreign countries to gain "a fair
share of the trade of the Philippines
for American goods.
