The "loud-sounding sea-"

tories have not yet penetrated there Is
superb stretch between the salt
meadows and the sea. One can walk
directly into the very heart of the sun
set-the changing, mysterious heart Of
the sunset which has always had
strange fascination for me. What a
wonderful picture | saw there the other
evening as | took my solitary stroll
along the "loud-sounding" sea! 1t was
extreme low tide, and the sand fats
lay in long, dark-brown reaches amidst
tranquil pools of water which reflected
faithfully the thousand brilliant colors
of the west. Far out at sea the waves
were breaking in a white line against
the dark, sharp lines Of the sand. A
wholesome tang of salt was In the air,
which blew in freshly across the wide
expanse of delicate supplemented sea.
The sun had disappeared behind
bank or rose-colored cloud, and no
words of mine can express the glori-
GUS symphony Of colds and puppies and
scarlets and pale-green and radiant
blues, which changed and deepened
and frightened in the sky, and threw
itself deep down into the peaceful
beautyof the salt pools. among the long
stretches of black sand. Such things
must be seen to be appreciated, but no
one can look upon such divine lowell
ness without becoming better man, |

heard the angels singing. When the
last triumphant note of color had died
away in the deep sky and night was

toward orion with feeling that my
crown was very firmly lodged upon my
heart, and that all Orion couldn't shake

All orion was probably too busy to

very dry, as in that case II will lose
much of its nitrogen. It may be ac-
cumulated in barrels or boxes, which
should be covered to prevent the dry
ing out by the air. Do not mix dry
dust with It. When any kind Of ma
nure is mixed with absolutely dry dust
or greatly diluted with water bacterial
and chemical actions are set up that
are very nearly annihilative in their
results. A mean must therefore be
followed, and the manure kept slight
ly moist and cold. Little change will
then take place. In summer the drop
pings from the poultry should be
cleaned away often and applied at
once to the land. A con-
temporary assigns as one cause of
soft-shelled eggs the overlooking of
meat. This may be so but Is not
probable. At least few of our poul-
trymen can be accused of feeding so
much meat that the ration Is over
balanced. Rheumatism In
fowls can be to an extent avoided by
giving dry house quarters.

Guard.man and o.,rIch.

A British guardsman in the South
African service had an unfortunate
experience recently. He was stationed
about 100 miles from Cape Town at
remount depot. One day farmer
stopped him as he was taking a con-
stitutional and warned him against
crossing an Enclosure containing
cock ostrich, which had become bad
tempered. The guardsman said no
ostrich ever Matched would turn him
out of his way and went on unmoved.
As he did not return home four hours
afterward his brother officers were
alarmed and sent out search parties.
What was their surprise to find him
lying on his back unhurt, with a cock
ostrich sitting on his chest. The bird
had knocked him down each time he
had tried to rise. but could not hurt
him while he lay on his back. Yet
leave his enemy he declined to do, and
therefore sat quietly upon him until
driven Off by the rescue party.

last seen them when turned my back
upon them for the sunset and forgot
them. Little golden tails of fire were
pickering and darting from their
mouths, and felt great and sudden
compassion for the thousand toiling
men and women who were there at
work in those grim, gaunt buildings, so
far away from the glories of the sun
set | felt all the sorrier because !
knew If by some sudden caprice on the
part of the boss holiday might be
theirs, they would not waste 1t in tame
ly walking along the meadows by the
sea at sunset, but would fly to the bar
gain-counter among the haunts OF men.
What would they do with my leisure,
my well-to-doness, my certainty of an
excellent dinner at the end Of my long
walk, my solitude, my books, my
thoughts? Not one Of my beloved ideas
would they adopt, and as looked at
the thousand dancing little tongues Of
fame l seemed to see the toll and sor-
fortunate than l, but who would never
know it, and the lust for gold seemed
to write itself all over the sky in those
pickering flames. and to cry down the
glorious wonder of the great sun
which had set.
/ felt of my crown in order to make
quite certain that 1t was still in my
heart, and then fell into line between
the rows of prosaic houses and went
prosaically home to dinner. 1t is so
much easier to be prosaic when the sun
has gone down and darkness is upon
the land, so was not so shocked as
might have been when Tom told me
triumphantly that the silver business
was booming awfully, and that an Or
der for three thousand spoons had just
come in from Chicago.

Gir:s In Netherlands Exceedingly Comely
to Look Upon.
Dutch girls are frequently very pref
ty and the only criticism an American
has to make Of them is that they talk
rather loud, move decidedly and are
perhaps little masculine in their hab-
its. They usually have fair hair, blue
eyes, white teeth and pink cheeks
that is, the Saxon type. The Tristan
type is tall and slight, with bright
color and a quick, eager look. Some
Of the best families are descendants of
those who came to Holland after the
revocation of the edict of Nantes, and
they still show their Huguenot blood
These joyous, alert young girls settle
down into the sedate matron which
every Dutchwoman thinks it her duty
to become. They have strong domes-
tic tastes and affections and when mar
ried are devoted to their homes, their
husbands and their children. They
know how to make their homes bright
and comfortable. A great deal of lux
ury is found in houses of the higher
classes. Marble halls, painted ceilings
and thick carpets, beautiful workman
ship and delicate detail are as appar-
ent as of old in the houses of the
bourgeoisie, as well as in great man
sions. The Dutch lady thoroughly
understands household management.
She prides herself upon giving excel
lent food and has well-appointed
linen press, but superhuous prettiness-
es are wanting. One will see fine old
silverware and precious Delft ware at
the little dinners she is fond of giving,
but there will be no flowers on the Ia
BILE and the guests do not dress for
dinner. Ladies at The Hague and
among the highest class are as cosmo-
politan, as smart and as beautifully
turned out as in any society in Europe,
but the bourgeois has not much idea
of dressing well, and will appear at
the breakfast table in dressing gown
and slippers, not exactly untidy. but
chosen more with view to the COM
Portable and the economical than the
becoming. A woman who does not
marry and who has little money can
lead very pleasant life.

ARMY OFFICER.

ceives Luxuriss from an Unknown
sourcs-Cass L. Again Before secre-
tary Root.

II common report is to be trusted.
q scandal Of considerable moment Is
brewing at Fort Leavenworth, that
may result in the degradation OF the
authorities of that institution. Revela-
lions have been made by q prisoner
confined in the stockade which are GER
tainly deserving OF investigation, for
they alleged that neither the letter ncr
the spirit of the law is lived to in the
case of the star prisoner, Capt ODER
lin M. Carter, and that favoritism is
practised within the government peni-
Tertiary.
Carter will be remembered as the
former United States army officer who.
after defrauding the government out
of millions of dollars on contracts at
Savannah and being tried for his
crimes by court martial, was stripped
of his rank and uniform and confined
in Fort Leavenworth on long SEN
tence, which was supposed to carry
with II labor of the most mental kind.
For a time the ruling of the court mar
tial was carried out to the letter, and
Carter was reported to be propelling
wheelbarrow in garden work as pen
ance for his misdeeeds, but according
to the prisoner who now makes COM
plant this state Of affairs no longer
obtains. Instead of receiving the same
treatment as the others under sem
tence, Carter is the object of special
consideration from the prison authori-
ties and his fellow culprlts are on the
verge of mutiny over his case.
A part of Carter's sentence, like that
of all degraded officers. was that he
should have no association with army
officers and that any of the latter who
should engage in any social intercourse
with him would be open to the severest
discipline, yet it is said that some OF
the officers at Fort Leavenworth have
violated the spirit and the letter of this

According to the Japan Times new
island has been discovered in the Sea
of Japan. From a statement appearing
in the Nichi Nichi it appears that the
island is situated at point between
Ul-long-do Island, off Korea, and the
oki Archipelago, off the coasts OF the
San-in-do, the distance from either
S. being 30 miles. No maps ever pub
lished contain any refernce to the ISL
and, which is reported to be about two
miles in length and about the same

by fisherman Of Kyushu, who found

Fxpelling the Lice.

Lice are most always the cause OF
chicks dying seemingly without
causes, so to speak, writes a corre-
spondent of the Illinois Poultry Ga
zette. After the chicks are Matched
leave them under the hens for about
thirty-six hours before feeding them
any at all. They require no feed for
that length of time. for nature pro-
vides for their nourishment for that
length of time and that length OF
brooding makes them become strong
and vigorous so as to be ready for
the battle Of coming existence. Usual
ly when chicks are two days old ] put
a wee little speck of fresh lard or
sweet oil on their heads just back Of
their little comb, rubbing 1t In gently,
but being sure to not get too much
grease on them, as the results might
prove fatal and put the little downy
balls to sleep forever. The sitting
hens must be thoroughly busted with
some good insect powder which can
be procured at most any drug store at
a small cost. Before l set the hens
paint their nest box with lice killer
and put tobacco leaves or stem In bot
tom of box and then fine hay on top
of this, but be sure not to let any Of
the lice medicine touch the eggs. After
the hens is on the eggs few days
place a camphorated ball in the nest.
BY such application, IL there happens
to be any lice or mites left in the nest
box or on the sitter they will mosey
out without waiting for q written no.
tice. to vacate the premises in ten
days.

Injunction. 1t Is alleged, among other
things. that while the poor devils who
are serving time for minor offenses
are treated like slaves, the ex-officer
who was convicted of the greatest
thievery in the annals Of the govern
ment service is enjoying remarkable
measure of liberty; that he plays golf
with other attaches of the place; that
his cell has been made more comfort
abe by the mysterious touch of un-
known hands, and that the star pris-
oner does not subsist upon the homely
prison fare allotted to other convicts.
but is secretly supplied with extra food
and dainties, apparently from some
officers headquarters. All this Of
course Is not done openly, and the APP
pearance of unprejudiced treatment of
Carter is kept on its face. but the other
prisoners were not slow to grasp the
situation, and their grumblings have
finally led one of them with more nerve
than the rest to make an open com
plant. His charges have been for
warded to the department Of justice a.
Washington.
1t Is not presumed that the war de
partment has connived in or even
winked at the favoritism shown to
Carter, II the charges be true, but 1t is
more likely that 1t has been due to
feeling of sympathy Of some of the
penitentiary attaches for Carter who
is an educated man with uncommonly
pleasing address and a personality
that would be likely to win favor any
where. 1t Is possible that some OF Car
ter's former associates at West Point
or in the army service are stationed at
Fort Leavenworth and have broken the
rules in his case for old times sake.
How far this may be true will be
brought out in the investigation which
will probably be made. and II the ac-
cusations are proven it is hardly doubt
full that Secretary Root will shake up
Fort Leavenworth in way that will
provide lesson for a good many years
to come to like officials here and else
where.

Poultry Briefs.

1t Is said that the interest being
manifested in the poultry industry is
greater than ever before. At no time
previously in the history Of this coun-
try have SO many educated men been
engaged in the business. Poultry
farms Of considerable magnitude are
being established in localities where
they have never before existed. There
are probably more people writing ar
ticles on poultry today than ever be-
fore, and the articles written are bet
ter. The poultry. business is develop
ting enormously.
The would-be successful poultryman
must be good feeder. BY good feed
er We do not mean a heavy feeder but
correct feeder. No matter how good
the breed may be or how pure. it will
prove a failure without proper feed
ing. Now, perhaps some one will ex-
pect us to follow that remark with a
set OF rules for good feeding. But in
stead We wish to say that feeding Is a
science that has to be learned just
like any other science. The mex
perienced amateur cannot even carry
out rules laid down by others. since
their carrying out requires judgment.
and correct judgment comes only with
experience.

matter for satisfaction that at least
one breed Of swine has originated in
America. We refer of course to the
Poland-China breed of hogs. Certain
ly, too, this Is a breed well worthy OF
the fame 1t has attained not only here
but abroad, for expectation of live
animals for breeding purposes has
been carried on to some extent Of late
years. and 1t may be said that II for
eign consumers of American pork and
pork products knew that the Poland
China furnished most of this product
they would more thoroughly appre-
ciate the breed as an American in
stitution." 1t is prominently lard

producer OF farm bacon and hams and
Of great proportion of all pork prod
ucts in the market. Yet while 1t Is an
American breed pure and simple 1t is
known by the complex, perplexing
name Poland China! What had
Poland to do with its formation? Not
thing that we have been able to dis
cover and China had almost as little.
When the breed found its starting
place back in the rich Miami valley OF
Ohio 1t is said that in 1916 John Wal
lace introduced to that county three
breeding hogs called big Chinas."
They were bought in Philadelphia and
were said to be from China or bred
from Chinese stock. This is the only
trace of China we can find In the
early history of the breed and facts
regarding any Polish blood having
been used are entirely absent so that
it may be taken for granted that no
such blood was utilized. 1t Is evident
then that our native breed of swine
is poorly named for while 1t originated
in America neither the Polaks nor the
Chinese contributed anything to its
success or formation yet receive the
credit in its designation. The breed
should have been called the miami
County hog" or possibly the War
rem County hog" as it was once called.
or should have been given some other
name more correct and American than
Poland-China. 1t is now too late to
change the name and pc" will stick
to the breed in all probability through
out the future. Though the name will
