Tried Them on tho Indiana.

when l was out in Oregon fifty.
three years ago. said pieasant.look.
ing farmer. who has been IN the red
raspberry business for twenty-five
years, Il first saw red raspberries
growing wild in the thickets and along
the edges Of the wild Oregon roads.
They were saucer.shaped and not as
deep as the modern berry-just like
those which still grow wild in Mich
igan. AS the Oregon berries looked
tempting. picked lot in my hat. but
did not dare to eat them, rs I did
not know whether they were poisonous
or not.
"On my way back to camp met q
number Of Indians whom had seen
before. and knew to be my friends; in
fact, they had taken such fancy TO
me that they once offered to adopt me
into the tribe. TO these genial Indians
I presented my hatful Of fresh red
raspberrles. aud my joy was great
when they ate them all with relish.
After that ! ate all | wanted.
In old New England. l understand.
they used to call the raspberry the
thimDleberry.' Oh account Of its re-
semblance to wOman's thimble."-

An Original Defense. .

Two aborigines Of Formosa. who
were arrested in the Hosan province.
were recently sentenced to death for
having murdered policeman.
Their defense was original. They
said they meant no harm: they killed
the policeman merely for joke.
Under cross-examination they said II
was only after the japanese had come
TO the island that they had heard tha,
the murder Of man was considered q
bad deed.
In reply to a question as to whether
they felt happy in killing the police.
man the prisoners replied yes, they felt
very happy.
This Is the first occasion on which
one Of the aborlgines has been sen.
fenced to capital punishment since the
japanese took over FOrmosa.

The Ernble,natic Eagle.

We have habit Of speaking Of the
American eagle as II only America had
an eagle. Let the eagle scream" Is o
pet saying. The eagle Is dominant In
the coat OF arms OF Mexico. Russia,
Chile, Austria-Hungary, Prussia and
Germany. 1t was the ensign OF the
ancient kings Of Babylon and Persia.
Of the Ptolemies and Seleucides. The
Romans adopted It, and Marius made
1t the ensign Of the legion. The French
under the Empire assumed the same
device. TIE eagle Is used for lacterns
in churches. because 1t Is the natural
enemy Of the serpent. The Mexican
coat Of arms is an eagle holding q
serpent in its beak and talons. Austria,
Germany and Russia have two-headed
eagles. one facing to the right and the
other to the left. The two heads sym.
bolize the Eastern or Byzantine EN-
pire and the Western or Roman En-.
pire. The eagle signifies fortitude.-

No Need to Knead Bread. .

A woman whose success Is still prob
lematical. since her invention has yet
to be proved. Is Mrs. Lydia c. sharp
less, Of Philadelphia, who has. after
two years Of study In laboratory. made
what Is believed to a valuable scien.
tific discovery with regard to -four
She IL convinced. as the result Of her
experiments. that kneading bread is
directly injurious TO -four. and has in.
vented a bread-making machine that
does away altogether with kneading
the dough. and asserts that a finer
quality OF bread will be produced. The
whole human race having been brought
up TO believe that 1t was hardly posi-.
ble to knead bread too much. and that
the goodness of bread was very largely
dependent on II. It seems st:ange. In.
deed. to now be told that II is wholly
unnecessary.

have invented a process by which the
wool can be easily stripped from the
hide. The wool IL then cleaned thor-
oughly IN hot water. dried and packed
he bales to be shipped direct to the
cloth manufacturer, the hide being
sold TO the tanner. The mutton intend
ed for shipment Is usually placed In the
refrigerating department. which may
contain 10000 pieces at one time. Here
It can be kept for an indefinite PERIOD
as the mir Is maintained at an even
temperature by refrigeration system
which extends to all portions OF the
department. When the time arrives
for shipment. the refrigerator cars can
be run into the refrigerator compart-
ments. and the meat transferred with
out exposing It to the warm air. In
the modern method 2f killing cattle
the stunning process Is still retained.
As the beeves are driven into the
Gangways In single Gle, men upon
elevated platforms knock them sense
less by a blow between the horns with
a heavy hammer quite similar in shape
to the implement used in spiking rail-
road ties. AS the animal falls a door
In the side Of the gangway Is opened.

flcor below. where 1t Is slaughtered.
Here the transferring machine Ia at
tached to the body. and as fast as an
animal Is killed It starts on Its journey
through the several departments First
comes the chill-room. then the COM
partment where 1t Is skinned. While
one man Is removing the hide. another
cuts OF the head and removes the
tongue. and another the feet. Next
It is halved or quartered In the cleav.
ing-room, and cleaved ready for ship

carcasses are usually lett In halves.

Of a drowning mans sensations is

department. swhere. Ike the sheep. they
may be kept nm indefinite period.
The beef affords a much greater
variety Of products than either the
sheep or the hog. although. as already
stated. every portion Of the animals
Is put to some use In the modern
process. The fat. boiled In large kei-
ties, is resolved into oleo and stearine.
oleo. or oil of the beef. forming tho
basis Of butterine and oleomargarine.
This and stearine are utilized in some
Of the soaps which are now nanufac-
tured. The bloed is converted into
fertilizer. and also into buttons OF q
cheap grade. which are now manufac'
turcd In Packing Town. within q
short distance Of the slaugbter-houses.
The hoofs, Of course. are converted
into glue. In the fertilizer compound.
practically all Of the offal OF the beef
can now be utilized.
Within three or four years the manu-.
facture Of soaps and liquid foods has
been undertaken on very large scale
in connection with the Chicago pack
ing industry. Scores OF products which
have beef for the basis are distilled,
refined and placed In bottles and jars

sisele file. into q compartment where
= large metal wheel revolves slowly
but continuously. An attendant seizes
Zach Of the animals by one OF the hind
feet and fastens 1t to the wheel by a
short chain. As It Is lifted into the
air. the butcher with a thrust Of the
knife opens the throat; the work occu-
pies but q second. The blood from
the carcass flows into q trough. which
passes on 20 watts. where 1t Is kept until
utilised In the manufacture Of fertil-
her. The carcass revolves on the wheel
until It reaches a point where It Is
automatically removed and fastened
TO q trolley system which conveys 1t
into the scrapIng-room. Here 1t passes
through a machine. provided with re-
volvinS blades. which removes most OF
the bris,ies, preserving them so that
they can be later made into brushes.
The carcass is then passed into vat
or tank Of boiling water. which softens
the, balance of the bristles so that they
car be easily removed by hand. From
this apartment II is conveyed by ma.
chinery into the chill.room. where II
remains for twenty-four hours before
being cut into sections.
The carcass. freed from blood and
bristles. Is now ready for the cleaver,
who separates It into the hams and
sides for bacon. and removes the fat.
which Is to be converted into lard
and other products. The cutting is
done SO dexterously that few min.
utes suffice for one man to separate
the hog into several portions. Then
the hams and bacon are placed In reser.
voirs filed with q picking composition,
Of which each company has its own
formula. The other portions for pro-
visions are placed in the salt-room
where they remain from forty to sixty
days. The same length OF time is re-
Quired also for the hams and bacon
Following the pickling and sailing
processes comes the smoking. which
is dohe in compartments where thou
sands Of pieces can be cured at the
same time.
The lard Is extracted. or tried. ir
immense kettles heated by steam. ant
while In the liquid state II Is forced
through pipes into the packing.room
the pals and other receptacles beini
filed by merely opening valves con
nected with the pipes. 1t is then al
lowed to cool and is ready for ship
ment. The pork sausage Is also largel!
. machine product. the meat bein;
chopped into fine particles by rapid!
revolving blades. and then forced int
skins made Of the intestines OF th'
hog. these Intestinal skins being. oI
course. FIRST thoroughly cleaned b!
machinery. A part Of this machinery
which Is operated by compressed air
will MI several feet Of sausage ski
IN q few seconds. The links are mad'
by merely tying the skin with string
In sections q few inches in length
Before 1t Is sent to market, sausage j
usually hung in the storehouse for ;
few days to "season."
