and the ordinary operating expenses
of UreNgrles and the capital required

State the sum Of 5000, while at the
present time iu some States these lo-
cal taxes range up to- $4,000 for each

Thomas Jefferson produced many
Inventions. He devised folding
chair which he used to carry to
church when the services were held
in the house at Charlottesville G where
the seating arrangements were IN
sufficient. The chair was composed
of the now familiar three sticks,
which, being unfolded and covered
with piece of cloth, made toler-
able seat or camp stool lie is also
credited with the revolving CHAR
which is now such familiar ana
necessary article of office furnature'
AT the time it was stated that Jei-
ferson had devised this chair SO that
.she could look two ways at once.
He also invented the copying press,
and he sent one of his own devlslng
to Lafayette as present. he IN
vented hemp break, podometei
and plow. The latter received
gold medal in France in 1870 ne
sent the original design to tn
Royal Agricultural Society OF tn
Seine and they awarded meoa
for it. Eighteen years afterward TN
society sent him superb plow con

Red PolIed Cattle

Red Polled cattle are natives Of
Norfolk and Suffolk counties in
England For many years they
were two distinct breeds, in these
counties. Various theories have
been put Onward to account for
these hornless cattle. The probabil-
ity is that in several varieties of Red
Polled cattle found in England
many years ago, we have the de-
scendants of a very ancient breed,
highly valued for their large yield
Of milk. The Herd Book says;
"There is even yet sort of sup
erstitious regard for red cattle pre-
valent among some Of the peasantry
the roots of which superstitious
achaeologists profess to find in the
religious belief of the Aryan race,
that red typifies the heavenly fire.
At any rate it is an undisputed fact
that in the middle ages and down
to a comparatively recent period the
dun or dark red COW for the terms
seem to have been convertible with
regard to cattle) was often invested
with remarkable powers-her milk
was deemed superior and was
supposed to possess health restoring
qualities.
"Herodotus carried back the
record Of polled cattle to remote
period.
"Hippocrates, speaking of the
Scythian chariots, says they were
drawn by oxen which have no horns
and the cold prevents their having
any.
''The probability is that Britain
derived both its polled cattle and its
trotting horses from the same source
THE folks who settled in Eastern
England after the Romans had

OF the Suffolk Polled John Kirby

Of 1874, speaks of the butter pro
duced in the dairy district as being
"the best and pleasantest in Eng
land" Arthur Young, in his
Surrey of Suffolks," published in
1894 mentions the breed and oi
milk yield says:
"There is hardly dairy of any
consideration in our district that
does not contain COWS which give, IL
the height of the season, eight gal
Ions of milk in day, and six are
common among many for a large
part of the season. For two OF
three months whole dairy will give
five gallons a day ON the average.

Whatever may be said OF the scien-

Hicks bases his yearly forecasts OF
of storm and weather,it is a remark
able fact that specific warning OF
every great storm, flood, cold wave
and drouth, have been plainly printed
in his now famous Almanac for many
years. The latest startling proof OF
this fact was the destruction of Gal

named by Prof Hicks in his 1900
Almanac, as one of disaster by storm
along the gulf coasts. The 1901
Almanac, by far the finest, most
