A FABLE FROM SULU.
Story of the Cat and the TIGER Which
Is Quite Popular Among Our
Philippine Friends.

The Cat and the Tiger were once
on very good terms. They consid-
cred themselves members Of the
same family, and, whenever any dis
putes arose among the animals, they
were both found vigorously support
ing the others cause. They were
often to be seen roaming about the
country together, and they frequent
ly did each other great services, the
Tiger by his superior strength, and
the Cat by his most nimble wit.
Although, for the most part, fast
friends, the Tiger, when they were by
themselves would often harass the
Cat by his conceited speeches.
'You may be very we'll for small
game" he would say, striding up and
down, and lashing his tail to and fro,
"but you must know that you are but
small and very plain edition of me.
I can easily bring down deer, and
I have even put the great Elephant
to flight. Look how my beautiful
stripes flash in the sun. Are you not
proud of belonging to my family?"
To this the Cat said nothing, but
closed his eyes, and unused that the
time would come again, as it had fire.
quently in the past, when he would
be able to even the score.

OUR SWINE PROBLEM.
tt Consists in Checking the Spread Of
Disease and Improving Com
diti0n of Breeds.

The United States produces more
than half of the swine used in the
whole world. In the United States
most of the swine are raised in a
cluster of States in the west. The
amount OF money brought into the
country and into the section in mind
BY hogs is very great. The study of
ways and means for making this crop
sure one is worth the attention of
the people living in the localities in
which swine are being raised. The
aba tement of swine diseases becomes
question of interest to the whole peo-
pie, for the money that goes first to
the swine' raisers gets to the others
In the course of time. The swine
raiser is interested in fighting hog
cholera, though it may be hundred
miles away from him. The problem is
a great one by reason of the fact that
most of our swine are raised on small
farms and by a multitude of farmers.
Great swine farms corresponding to
the western cattle and sheep ranches
are unknown. Numerous swine han
dlers therefore have to be considered
in this effort to check swine diseases
and improve the conditions of the
breeds. It therefore follows that a
campaign of education is about the
only effectual way to improve condi-
tlons.-Farmers' Review.

Mr.. GRUMPY.

DID you ever meet with a person queer,
whose manners are most unpleasing
In each Of his eyes there hides tear,
wonder it isn't freezing!
For he looks SO cross and he looks so cold
And he carries his shoulders humpy:
And think you hardly need to be told
That his name is Mr.. Grumpy!
One meets with him, I'm sorry to say,
Much oftener than is pleasant;
l thought caught sight of him here to-day,
Let's hope that he isn't present!
lie has rosy cheeks, he Is small and fat,
In fact. you might call him dumpy;
And he takes no notice of child or cat
Cantankerous Mister Grumpy!
He sometimes comes in the midst of play.
And sometimes when toys get broken:
And frequently he has come to stay
Because of some chance word spoken;
1t the bread and milk has taste of burn,
Or If the porridge is lumpy,
lie is here again, ere you we'll can turn
Disconsolate Mister Grumpy!
Now let me tell you that grumpy folk
Grow up most ugly and horrid;
With pouting lips and with head a-poke,
AND wrinkly frown on the forehead.
They never are big. and fine. and tall,
But little, and thin, and stumpy;
So tell him, the next time he pays call:
"Begone with YOU, Mr.. Grumpy"

Escaping Mold in Cheese.

Prof. H. L. Russell says: The mold
ing of cheese is, of course, biolog-
ical phenomenon due to the develop
ment of mold spores on the surface
of the cheese, condition brought
about by the proper temperature and
moisture. Mold will invariably occur
when the degree of saturation in the
atmosphere reaches the maximum
point, and under these conditions at
ordinary temperatures at which
cheese is ripened you have more or
less trouble from the molding of the
cheese. We find that when cheese is
cured at 40 degrees or Whereabouts,
these molds will not develop. They
cannot grow to any considerable ex-
tent because the temperature is too
low for them to develop, so that
those losses are to large extent OBJ
waited by the use of these lower cur
ing temperatures.

The Useful. Cocoanut Tree

From the trunk of the cocoanut palm
oil barrels, tubs and water pipes are
easily produced, and the roots give a
red dye. The fibers make ropes, mats,
and even paper. The kernel of the nut
is the main food of several million of
human beings, whose most nourishing
drink is the milk. Cooked and evap-
GRATED, the kernel becomes the com
mercial cocoanut of the confectioner.
Pressed, it yields cocoanut oil-one
of the most important of commercial
~oils-used in cookery, for soapmaking,
and for candles. Cocoanut oil soap will
produce q lather even in salt water.
Wax and resin are yielded by the
same tree, and by tapping: the central

is obtained. Even the shell of the nut
IS not with out itssuses. It is. employed

FEEDING CLOVER HAY.
Some Pointers for Farmers Who
Have Been Disappointed i'm Its
Use al a Feed for Horses.

The keep of farm teams is COST
ing money this year. Grain is cash
article, whether purchased or grown
upon the farm. Scientists have fig
ured out that clover hay should fur
nish horse Or cow quite a'well-bal-
anced ration, and many farmer is
wondering what ails the figures, ex-
perience having taught that clover
hay without grain will not keep a
team in good condition at hard work.
1t will pay to think this matter out
right. The clover contains the food
elements in the proportion the sci
enlist states, but with them is too
much bulky, indigestible stuff to
make clover hay alone fit feed for
the horse which has small stomach
and limited time for eating. More
than this, the clover fed alone has
too free an effect upon the digestive
organs. While good clover hay has
about the right proportion of food
elements in it for the working horse,
it is not a perfect food, for the rea-
sons stated. It can, however, be
made the basis of ration for horses
at moderate work, with great saving
of grain, if judgment is used. Being
bulky, some more concentrated food
in the form of grain-should be
given, and if it is binding, like corn,
so much the better. A little old tim
othy should be added. In this way
the new clover hay of this year can
be made to displace half the grain
ordinarily given to farm teams. It
should, however, be good clover. The
cutting should be in full bloom, and
the curing should be done in the
windrow and cock. That prevents the
leaves from becoming dusty. The
man who has not fed early cut ane!
perfectly cured clover hay is not
competent judge of it's value. Over
ripe or overcured clover is utterly I'M
fit for horse, while good clover ap-
proaches grain in value.-Farm and

Spirit of COODeration

The tendency of farmers, truck.
ers, fruit-growers and dairy1nen
to sell their products by cooper
ating together is increasing. A
tobacco-growers' association is now
being formed in Kentucky for a sim
liar purpose. Each grower is re!
quired to give a bond that he will
deliver his crop to the association
managers or else pay to the same
two dollars a hundredweight if the
sales are made to outside parties.
The growers in eleven counties have
united in this movement to obtain
better prices.-Farm and Fireside.

Hints on Preserving EGGS.

If the eggs are to be preserved il
lime water or lime slaked in water, do
not put them into the water for at
least "a hours after the lime has been
placed there. The quantity of lime to
use should be lump as large as your
two fists placed together, and to this
add one handful of salt. This will do
for an earthenware pan capable of
holding 200 eggs. My wife has adopted
this principle for years, and finds that
eggs will keep for at least year, and
can be used for almost any thing. They
do not poach we'll, as for some unac-
countable reason the white of the eggs
separates from the yolk when the
shell is cracked for the purpose Of
poaching. It is as we'll to stir the lime
up from time to time with the hand

ISLANDER ON OSTRICH.
in the Sand to Escape Observa-
ton Is a Silly Myth.

A we'll known hunter and tax1der-
mist tells this story of personal ex-
perience in South Africa. It goes far
toward dispelling a SANDER that has
long clouded the fair name of the
ostrich.
"Arriving at one of the monster hills
of the white ant, l climbed upon it and
raised my observation glasses to my
eyes for careful survey of the region.
My first glance showed me, arising
from the dead level of the plain be-
yond, two objects, each having the
form of capital S. These I knew
were the heads and necks of two os-
triches. Though believed that they
had sighted me, I remained immovab BILE
until their necl1s were suddenly drawn
down to the level of the tops of the
bushes which screened their bodies.
Then I knew for certainty that they
were aware of my presence and would
make quick retreat.
without losing an instant's time l
ran to the spot where the birds had
been standing and found their tracks.
These followed as far as they were
distinguishable and then took course
which I believed the birds would nat
urally follow. No sooner had I
reached the top of the ravine than I
saw one of the ostriches climbing the
side hill. Estimating the distance, I
took sight and fred. The ball passed
Immediately between his legs and
struck in the sand of the side'hil be-
hind him.
"In an instant the bird darted away
like an arrow in the direction of a
small clump of bushes in the center of
an open space. That he would pause
behind this bush and then finally
emerge on the other side seemed GER
tain, and I aimed to catch him as he
made fresh start from behind the
thorn. He flew over the sand at ter
rife rate and reached the bushes.
Then I waited fully five minutes for
him to emerge from his hiding, with
my rifle ready sighted so that I could
pull the trigger the second he reap
peared, but finally went forward to
rout him out When I reached the
clump of bushes, an examination of
the sand showed that the crafty old
bird had shifted his course at right
angle, making the turn so suddenly
that his feet had plowed up the sand
for distance Of several inches. This
wary tact had placed the bushes be-
tween the bird and myself and he had
made his way to a new cover while I
was innocently waiting for him on the
other side of the ambush. An Apache
Indian could not have executed this
maneuver more cleverly, and I smiled
at myself for having ever been foolish
enough to believe the traditional story
of how the silly ostrich buries his head
in the sand and believes that he is
thereby concealed" - Philadelphia

Some Erroneous Impressions.

It is mistake to imagine that mon
grel-bred fowls are harder than pure
bred, though this opinion seems to be
quite generally held. Like good many
other opinions this lacks support by
proven facts. Breeders of fine fowls
claim to have demonstrated it's fallacv.
Under the general conditions of thu
farm a thoroughbred will stand as
much as scrub will stand. Light and
heavy fowls should not be kept to-
gether. There must be similarity of
treatment, and light and heavy fowls
do not need the same treatment. d.
verse treatment can be secured by
keeping the fowls of the two general
classes separate.

once he is up, if he wishes to come
down, he must either leap or fall,
since he is unable to climb down.
One day he said to the Cat: II
have long wished that I could climb
tree, Many of my tormenting enc
mics escape from me because 1 must
stick on the ground. You climb very
well, though you are so little. Why
will you not teach me?"
''Come along; I will teach you, with
pleasure" said the Cat, leading the
way to tall tree. After great deal
of instruction, the Tiger succeeded in
getting up the tree, but the Cat, see
ing how an opportunity to retaliate
for some of the Tigers unpleasant
words, ran off, laughing.
Il am up very well, said the Tiger,
a little frightened at finding himself
so far from the ground, 'now show
me how to get down.
'Oh, no." said the Cat. II was only
to show you how to get up. Now you
must get down the best you can.
Since you are so much more powerful
and beautiful, surely you can do that
much better than IT,
The Tiger tried to cajole his small
friend, then begged him for help;
but, finding him obdurate, flew into
rage and leaped to the ground,
meaning to catch and crush him at
once. Instead, he was almost crushed
himself, and lay on his side for some
moments, gasping for breath.
At last, when he was able to rise,
he rushed after the Cat with the best
speed he could muster. Lame as he
was, he gained rapidly, and it would
have gone hard with the Cat had he
not, luckily, spied a mans house a
little way off. In this he took refuge,
and he has never yet mustered uu
courage enough to leave that protec.
