There are at least 20 lost gold mines
In various parts of the world. Many
of them have yielded rich ores and
then have been deserted and entirely
lost.
There Is one in the north of the
Transvaal, for instance. that was dis
covered by accident in the eighties by
two Englishmen The finders had en-
camped one night and had, as they
thought. securely tetheyed their horses
when they suddenly heard loud neigh
from one of the animals and moment
later saw them both racing away ap-
parently in the greatest terror.
Soon after dawn they were up and
after an hours tramp found one of the
poor beasts lying on the ground with a
broken leg. In its struggles ii had
kicked up the ground and had exposed
rich gold quartz only few inches be-
low the surface.
The two men marked the spot and
returned to the district a month later
to start work on the mine. But in
spite of all their efforts they could not
find the place. and to this day the mine
has not been rediscovered.
In the late seventies there was tre-
mendous excitement in California
when prospector described gold
mine he had found. A party soon pre-
pared to set out. with the discoverer Of
the mine as guide, but the mine has
never been discovered. though thou
sands of dollars have been spent In
prospecting for it.-Stray Stories.

Three Remedies, All Old, but Not Yet
Improved Upon.
Now, borers are difficult things to
fight under all circumstances, and no
course of treatment is known which
will entirely eradicate them. Never
theleSs every one that Is killed Is just
so much gained for the general good.
There are three practices that have
been found useful, though no one OF
them, or al Of them combined, Will rid
an orchard of an insect that breeds in
SO many host trees. They are the same
old remedies recommended many years
ago and which have not since been Inn
proved upon.
They consist in protecting by means
Of wash, binding the trunk with pa
per and digging out the young larvn.
Whitewash or whitewash and glue
applied to the trunk and large limbs is
said to have very beneficial effect.
1t should be applied early In June and
kept on In good condition through most
OF July. Soft soap is also used for this
purpose.
Second. - Binding paper about the
trunk and larger limbs For this pur-
pose news paper Is best used next the
tree and building paper outside.

1t Is interesting to recall that, Just
as Edward VII OF England chose his
second baptismal name as tho one by
which he wished to be designated
when he mounted the throne, so like
wise his great-uncle, William Henry,
would have preferred to be known as
Henry TX. One Of the reasons for this
preference was the desire to establish
lawful right to title which had al
ready been arrogated by the cardinal
of York. tho last Of the Stuart pre-
tenders. When the question. however,
came up for discussion In the privy
council, the latter decided In favor Of
King William Nv. This story was told
by the king himself to Miss Helen
Lloyd, the governess of his children.
He added that the privy council was
moved to this choice partly by fear Of
exciting the superstitious fears of the
populace, who attn bore In their men,
ory q prophecy dating from the seven
teenth century. which runs as follows:
Henry the Eighth pulled down monks and their
cells;
Henry the Ninth shall pull dOwA bishops and
bells

Gumption About Cows.

Farm Journal folks figure that COW
giving 5000 pounds of 4 per cent milk
will produce only $50 worth OF butter
while one that win produce 5000
pounds OF Q per cent milk Will produce
800 worth Of butter, and her calf Is
worth three times AZ much as that OF
the first.
There will be little difference Nv the
cost of keeping the two cows. so that
where the tlrst gives profit Of $50 the
latter will net the owner 500, IL we
count the first cows calf at $40 and
the other at $40.
Some people do not think there Is
much difference in cows, but some
cows forget TO pay their board bills,
while others take great pleasure In
supplying the table with luxuries, pay
ing the interest, clothing the baby and
paying the hired girl.
The good COW Is q poor farmers
