THE TERRIER FIGHT.

skill of the fighter as upon his
strength. Furthermore, terrier
fight is not brutal. No boy will hurt
himself while engaged in this sport.
AS shown in the illustration, two boys
are placed facing each other in the
center of q room; hands clasped be-
meath the knees and stick just un-
der the elbows, as shown Each con-
testant endeavors to push the other
over, but as it requires considerable
attention to keep your balance at all
when in this position, the attack is no
easy matter.
70 suddenly give way is a maneuver
almost suresto upset your adversary,
but unfortunately it is very apt to up
set you at the same time, and only
after considerable practice will you
be able to overcome a man in this
way. The pivot, sudden swing to
the right or left, is safer, though not
quite as effective. Always remember
that the best terrier fighter invaria-
bly, makes his opponent throw him
self. Give way at some unexpected
point, and unless he is skillful man
he is sure to go over. Never try a
hard push except in the last extrem-
ity, when everything else has failed.
A terrier fight consists of three
ore-minute rounds, with 80 seconds
rest between each round. The one
scoring the largest number of falls
during the time set is accounted the
winner.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Battle Between Heron and Bluejays.
"A battle between heron and a
dozen bluejays, with spectators made
up Of ducks, swans, cranes, gulls and
peacocks, took place in Lincoln park,
Chicago. The heron was wading in
the duck pond, utterly ,uncopscious
of the coming attack, when the jays
in q flock swooped down upon him
from all sides. Taken at q disad-
vantage, he fought as best he could.
until he gained the shore, where he
made his way to low spreading
tree. There he made rapid thrusts
with his rapier-like bill at his pug
nacious assailants. The fight waxed
hotter and hotter for nearly Is min.
utes, the heron repelling all attacks,
until one OF the jays made sweep
for the head of the heron and was
impaled on the long bill by 9 sudden
forward thrust. A few discordant
cries, and the bird was dead. This
took the life out Of the attacking
party, and they flew away with cries
Of fear. The heron reached up with
one foot, raked the jay OF his bill,
and, after making sure his enemies
had flown, drew his hsad down H
tween his wings and went TO slsely-.

There isSs Boston legend that ice.

Fatteninr the Broiler,.

Choice broilers bring high prices,
but it is not an easy matter to fat
ten broilers, as the food makes them
grow instead of fattening. Then,
again, to force them may result in
leg weakness, bowel disease, etc. Do
not begin to fatten until they are six
or seven weeks old, and then allow
them time to fatten. Feed three
times a day, and scatter one gill of
millet seed in litter between meals.
Here is an excellent fattening food:
Melt one pound of crude tallow in
one-half gallon of boiling water.
While boiling thicken with a sufficient
quantity of the following to form q
stiff dough: One quart of corn meal,
one quart of ground oats, one quart
of middlings, one pint of ground
meat, one half pint of linseed meal
and one tablespoonful of salt, well
mixed and fed all that will be eaten
clean. allowing no food to remain
over.-Farm and Fireside.

PARASITES ON POULTRY.
Camphor Balls, Says One Writer, Are
Sure Death to Red Mites and
Other Species OF Lice,

"A POuAtAy AoASSVs "uO 4OE several
years experimental with various insec-
ticides in search of reliable remedy
for the little red mites and the various
species of the hen body louise that in
tests the nests. of sitting hens, could
find nothing effective till he tried cam
phor balls, says Farmers Guide. He
says he has had the hens leave the
nest before the eggs were Matched,
completely covered with these pests,
and has taken off many broods of
chickens when he would find half q
dozen or more big white lice on their
little heads, and this, too, after hav-
ing busted the hen and nest we'll sew
eral times during the incubation with
various kinds of insect powders,
The balls are perfectly harmless to
the hen and chicks and the hen with
her brood of chicks will leave the nest
absolutely free from lice. Make your
nest and put in the eggs, and at the
same time place in the nest with the
eggs one camphorated ball, which is
sufficient for the entire incubation, and
your hen and little chicks will leave
the nest free from all kinds of YER
min. When you have placed the little
ball in the nest you need not bother
any more. It will ievaporate and get
to be very small toward the latter
part of the incubating; but never
mind, it has done it's work.
Since using the camphor ball he has
not raised single chick with scaly
legs. It is good idea to keep one
of the balls in the nest where, the
hens lay, as it keeps them free from
vermin. The camphorated ball is q
little white ball, and can be had from
any drug store.

THE CORE OF THE ISLAND.

ter Of the locality, it is always well
to look up it's geological history, that
we can the better understand it's pres
ent condition. The island of which I
have told gave no clew as to why it
was an island and not q hit of the
surrounding meadow; but this is not
reason for wondering why it was
here at all. Nowhere is the world
just as it has always been.
That my play-day islapd, now no
more, was very old, as we count years,
was shown by the fact that close to
the level of the water were found
flint arrow-heads and pieces of Indian
pottery. Here was q pretty chapter
of the islands history. When but a
sandbar, bare perhaps at low tide
only, Indians came here, perhaps to
fish or to lie in wait for passing water
fowl; but here they came, and what
they left behind them clearly proves
that the old tree was the foundation
Of the new land long before the white
man came to this country.
Wherever there is little brook the
story of the making and unmaking Of
islands is told. On small scale, ev-
erywhere, the great works Of crea-
tion are being repeated. It is never
necessary to travel to the ends of the
earth to learn about a great many in
teresting things that are going on out
of doors. The familiar incidents about
our doer-steps are never to be de.
spised. A cat in the grass can tell

tuition, and situated between Washing
ton and Baltimore. This philanthropic
work is entered into by both cities and
is a special effort for children, whose
lives are blighted at birth by poverty
and crime.
At first Mrs. Fairbanks refused to
enter into this work, owing to pressure
of social and other philanthropic mat
ters, but the management, knowing
her peculiar fitness, pressed her to visit
the buildings on the farm at Annapolis
Junction, which she did, witnessing
these little waits governing themselves
after the plan of the George Junior
Republic, which allows the 'citizens, -
as the inmates are called, to elect their
own president, judges and other off,

Fairbanks was so impressed with the
value of the work that she withdrew
her refusal, and now her elegant resi-
dence is thrown open for the meetings
of the board of Woman's League of

she presides. Thus the house so often
open in entertaining dignitaries Of
this and other lands is also open to
philanthropic interests.
Mrs. Fairbanks is also a member OF
the governing board of the General
Federation of Women's clubs. She was

BRLGIAN HARE 8. / 1 MOTIFS


|E When . doe Is bred she should be sep
arated from other hares, and more es-
pecially 20 when near the tine of kind
ling, when she must occupy separate
quarters exclusively to herself. Four
or five feet square floor space will ac-
commodate her nicely. She must Be
furnished with nest box, and an or
@dinary cracker box issjust as near the
proper size and shape as we could make
one. The nest box must be furnished
with material for . nest, which may be
soft, clean, fine straw or blades Of
grass or soft dry hay. : :. ,=s.sS@ =gss
The doe carries her young 80 days,
which is the period Of their kindling.
They usually have from six to ten
young. Young does seldom have as
large number as the older ones. The
young when born are very helpless lit
tie creatures, and on taking look at
them, one would say they were imma-
ture. They grow exceedingly fast, and
in Is or 20 days they arerunning about,
and beginning to eat. Perhaps the
first best feed to offer them is shorts or
bran. Iprefer shorts. e.. s.z.s.- ~ :. =
The doe must be carefully fed milk
producing food, but right here I would
caution you to feed only sparingly Of
green food, for the doe if not used to
such will over-eat of it and diarrhoea
and q sick doe will be the result Ihave
carried the doe and her young until
weaving time exclusively on dry clover
hay, shorts, bran, oats and other grain,
with plenty Of pure water, and never
had better results in growing the
young and keeping the doe in good con-
dition.
After the young hares begin to eat
well they may be weaned, but prefer
to let them run with the doe six weeks,
and they will usually be much better
developed specimens than if weaned
younger. I have young hares eight
weeks old that weigh five pounds, and
bred from very fine does scoring a.
high as 94A and weighing ten pounds.
No one should think that all stock Of
Belgian hares is about one and the
same thing by any means. The facts
are that as yet there is but a limited
number of frst-class breeding stock in
the country.-A. II. Duff, in National
Rural,
