come upon me through repeating my

silently, till all at once, as it were out
of the intensity of the consciousness
of individuality, the Individuality itself
seemed to dissolve and fade away into
boundless being, and this not in a con-
fused state, but the clearest Of the
clearest, the surest Of the surest, the
weirdest of the Weirdest, utterly be-

The True Poker Flat.

In 1852 Poker Flat produced 100000
In gold bullion in single month and
celebrated the event with triple hang
ing. Then came the public spasm Of
virtue which caused the John Oak
bursts and the ~outcasts of Poker Flat"
to depart from thence and die of cold
and starvation on the snow bound road
to Sandy Bar. There are no soak
bursts" nor Uncle Billys" in Poker
Flat today, and when the stranger
makes the slow descent and suddenly
by sharp turn in the trail comes upon
the famous camp he finds in that hud
die of cabins little to remind him of the
Poker Flat of 1852
The famous slope presents almost
picture of utter ruin. There are but
eight persons living in the old town,
while a hundred dead ones sleep in the
cemetery. Some of the graves are
marked with wooden headboards, some
with stakes, but many have nothing
above them. Nearly all of them were
laid to rest without religious rites save
a Bible reading by old Charlie Pond,
who, though a professional gambler,
was selected for the religious Office
owing to his excellent voice and ora
torical ability.
In 1853 and 1854 there were 1000
souls in Poker Flat and 10 stores, 5 no.
tells, dance halls and Z gambling
houses. There is but one man left to-
day of that original company. He is an
old and grizzled veteran, who delights
to tell how in 1856 a circus came to
town and sold 1900 tickets of admis-
sion at 500 each.-W. M. Clemens in

TESTING THE HERD.
Only Way the Dairyman Cam Weed
Out Nonpaying Cows.


Out Nonpaying Cows.
The University creamery at Madison,
Wis, has been conducting practical
tests Of the milking qualities Of the
cows in the herds of the dairymen who
supply milk to the University cream
cry. In recent circular it said:
''The University creamery has been
testing the milk of COWS owned by pa
irons for the past three years. A box
of sample bottles it sent to each farm
where testing is desired, and the milk
of each COW in the herd is weighed
and sampled once in two weeks. These
small samples of milk are returned to
the creamery in the box, and each sam
pie is tested. A record of the weights
and the tests is made in book which
is sent back to the patron, and he can
then see how we'll some Of his COWS are
doing and what a poor showing others
make.
Nearly every herd we have tested
has proved that some Of the COWS pro-
duce butter enough to pay handsome
profit to the owner, while others that
require the same feed, care and time
spent in milking do not make butter
enough to pay for the feed they eat.
The owner is often working farm
and supporting a few COWS as boarders
that do not pay their board.

more money for the milk Of three COWS

Gray-It puts me all out of temper

MODEL COW STALL.

rack. This bar serves the double pur-
pose of retaining the bedding in place
and of encouraging the cow to move
forward when about to lie down, bring
ing her head under the projecting rack.
The bottom of this rack should be from
80 to 40 inches above the floor. A shall
low manger may extend across the full
width of the stall in place of the slant
ing box shown in the engraving.
The cow is fastened with a halter
about the head, and instead Of remov-
ing the headpiece every time the cow
is to be loosened attach a stout safety
snap to the end of the rope and snap
this into the ring under the throat, let
ting the COW wear the headpiece all the
time.

The Inventor of the F1ourins Mill.

About the year 20 B. G. Mithridates,
king of Cappadocia, one of the most
ingenious and able princes of the time,
invented the first mill driven by water.
This triumph of his skill and ingenuity
he caused to be erected in the imme-
date vicinity of the royal palace. In
the course of time the Cappadocian
bakers became celebrated and were in
great demand throughout all parts of
the world as then known.
These mills were usually placed up
on boats on the river, being so elevated
and contrived as to be easily driven by
the water, and the millers were thus
enabled to move from place to place,
distributing the meal to their custom
ers.

Astronomers tell US that refractory
elements like iron, silicon and carbon,

others Of our well known elements, in

this glowing atmosphere, while the
heat of the SUMS surface and that Of

The Breeders Gazette gives the fol-
wire grass: The grass in question is
an annual, and therefore it dies at the
end of the season. Now, what must be
done is to start some strong growing
perennial grass on the same land, SO
that when the wire grass dies in the
fall the other grass will remain on the
ground. No doubt the first year there
would be some places where the wire
grass would grow more rapidly than
the other, and it might even smother it
out here and there, but in a year or two
of this treatment the annual must dis
appear. A good grass to use for this
purpose is smooth bronze grass Bromus
inermis), of which so much has been
written in recent years. 1t would for
this purpose be good plan to SOW
little Kentucky blue grass with the
bronze grass, as the latter is so very
tenacious and spreading when it once
is firmly rooted in the soil. 1t will be
necessary to break the sod somewhat
in order to give the seeds of these
grasses an opportunity to get their
roots started into the soil. Do not be
afraid of too heavy seeding. 1t pays
to give the ground plenty of seed.
Summer Fodder.
Cows should have good care from
the beginning to the end of the year
and every day of it, says Massachu-
SettS Farmer ONLY bV so doing can
best results be obtained. If the cow
be allowed to get very poor for want
Of proper food or care, she will not re-
cover from it and be worth as much
throughout the entire year. In the
spring 1 make from three to four differ
ent paintings of fodder corn from one
to three weeks apart, chiefly for the
benefit of my cows during the summer
and fall months. My hogs and horses
come in for share, and, rightly fed,
they will enjoy it and be greatly bene-
fitted thereby.

Turnips as q Selling Crop.

Those who have a field of light soil
which they intend to seed to wheat,
clover or grass IN August can scarcely
do better than to put on a crop of tur-
nips early to pillow under before that
time, while those who want to seed
later or early in the spring may SOW
turnips in midsummer, possibly to Gov
er the ground when the summer crop
is taken off, as their rapid growth can
be made in the time when many farm
ers allow their fields to lie fallow or to
grow only weeds.

Burdock and PIantain,

Burdocks are quite easily extermi-
mated by cutting them off just below
the crown of the root when fairly well
grown. Plaintain is much more diff
cult to eradicate. In small patches per-
sistent cutting off the roots with knife
or ''spud" will avail, but for larger
areas the only recourse is to hoed crops.

Below are given two rations for 900
pound cows which are exactly alike
except that one contains ordinary mix
ed hay with little or no clover and the
other clover hay. 1t is particularly in
teresting to notice the influence of clo-
yer hay in raising the absolute amount
Of digestible protein and in narrowing
the nutritive ratio. The farmer who
grows large amounts of clover needs to
buy less grain than the neighbor who
ignores the virtues Of clover: No. /,

Feeding For Profit.
A balanced ration is one that makes
a COW do her level best producing milk
and butter fat and, while maintaining
the health of the COW, leaves balance
for the profit of her owner, says a
dairyman in National Stockman. That
is the proper kind of balanced ration
and the one the farmer is interested in.
1t is easy enough to balance the ra
ton according to the feeding standards
and entirely unbalance the profit, even
when the ration is given to a good cow
and if by some unwisdom on the part
of the cows owner the cow should be.
a Door one the lack of balance in favor,
of the dairyman is still more manifest.
If silage is cheaper than dried corn
and cheaper and better than roots, If
clover, soy beans and the peas and all
the other possible leguminous crops are
as valuable sources of protein as the
byproductS of the mills and trusts and
they will balance the ration to the full
est requirements of the good cow and
do it more cheaply than the feeds Of
commerce, then why should they not
grow on all our farms? Then the bal
ancing may be done at home.
Value of Balanced Ration.
Milk and butter were produced more
economically in some New Jersey tests
from well balanced rations than from
the rations containing sufficient guam
tity of food, but not properly balanced.
Feeding. irregular rations caused va
ration in the yield of milk, with a
tendency toward decrease.
