tains on Venus To observers hitherto the
planet has seemed wrapped in an i'm
penetrable envelope OF cloud, which. when
near the earth, Is the cause Of its astonish-
ing brilliancy: but Herr Arendt, who has
had the instruments Of the Urania OBJ
servatory at Berlin to work with. consid-
ers that he has detected markings on Venus
which indicate the presence of great eleva7

miles high. But then no one had believed
him. Markings have been noticed on the
bright planet from very early times. from
which 1t was concluded that 1t rotated III

ANm-sALooN LEAGUE MEETING.
Advocates Of Drink Reform Assem-
bling in the City.

The seventh annual convention Of the
American Anti-Saloon League, which meets
In this city tomorrow for a session of three
days. has attracted a large number of
leaders OF temperance agitation to the city.
Several prominent workers in the move
ment of saloon suppression yesterday de-
livered addresses in local churches of va
rious denominations. Large audiences were
noticeable at all of the services and con-
siderable interest was manifested in the re-
marks Of the speakers.
Rev. DR.. Homer w. Tope. superintendent
Of the Albany, N. Y, District League.
spoke in the morning at the Lutheran
Church OF the Reformation and at the
Metropolitan Presby terian Church in the
evening. He declared that the temperance
spirit in the country is growing, and that
by arousing public sentiment against the
saloon united effort may be obtained in ac
complishing the purposes of the Anti-Sa-
loon League.
morning the Rev. Edward G. Saunderson,
state superintendent of Indiana, spoke of
the results accomplished in his state. He
urged that-the sense of individual respon
sibility should be developed, and that the
church bodies should unite in the work to
obtain the best results in the work of abol-
ishing the saloon. Mr.. Saunderson spoke
In the evening at Wilson Memorial M. E.
Church.
Rev. DR.. JohI F. Brant, superintendent of
the Buffalo. N. Y, League. spoke In the
morning at lexington Presbyterian Church
and in the evening at Foundry M. e.
Church. He said the outlook for temper
ance reform Is hopeful, and that Russia,
Germany. France and England are begin
ming to make the drink evil a governmental
question. He also mentioned the results
obtained in the Buffalo district
A temperance service was held at the
Ninth Street Christian Church yesterday
morning. Rev. DR.. George w. Peck, super
intendent of the Rochester, N. Y, district,
delivered the address. The idea of the
Anti-Saloon League, he declared, is adapt
able to every village, town, city and state
in America. He made strong plea against
government sanction of the use of intox-
icants. In the evening DR.. Peck delivered
an address in the Peck Memorial Presby
terrain Church.
A large number of superintendent from
the various states of the Union arrived in
the city today, and will be on hand for the
opening of the convention tomorrow

from the London Chronicle.

One OF the things that most impressed
Gen. Wood was the stolidity of the London

heard SO much of British cheers that he
expected to see all American outbursts

found less show Of enthusiasm, even when

which American visitors often make, and
not without reson. The Londt n crowd IL
more hearty and yociferous than the
French or German crowd. but compared
with an American gathering on asy big oc-
casion, a political meeting, for instance, a
civic welcome to victorious admiral, or a
varsity foot ball match, It Is a. Aher

1t Is claimed that the Americans do not
really cheer; they yell.

Licensed Judges for Poultry.

1t has been suggested that for poul-
try shows there should be judges
licensed by the American Poultry AS
ISOLATION. The scheme may be good
one, but we would suggest that it
would be better to have judges that
have passed good examinations and
been licensed by some of our agri-
cultural colleges that make poultry
culture a branch of instruction. We
are strongly of the opinion that much
of the judging at poultry shows is of
a very unscientific character Ger
tainly no one should be selected as a
Judge who is not fully qualified and
because a man has raised poultry all
his life is no reason why he should
be selected as Judge. He may have
been following erroneous methods all
his life. OF course, we recognize the
fact that after Judge is licensed
there will be no way of compelling the
managers of poultry shows to hire
him for the work of judging. The
moral effect, however, of having the
license will be good, and we think
the unlicensed judges would soon dis
appear.

How a Hen Feeds.

Observe how the hen feeds when OUT
on the range. 1t is first blade OF
grass or leaf of clover, then short
chase for grasshopper or cricket
She now discovers a soft spot IN the
soil which she believes worth investl-
eating. and sets to work with the
mining tools nature has given her
with a view of finding out II IL is
"pay dirt" A fuzzy weed head Is III
her path and she stops to shatter
down a few of the ripened seeds. she
is drawn away from this repast by
another grasshopper which springs
down in front of her and jumps away
again Just in time to save hlmsell
from the dash which she has made at
him. In place of the grasshopper
which she didn't get she nips another
clover leaf or blade of grass. Thus
the hen feeds a little at time and
consumes hours in obtaining full
meal. 1t seems that people who see
this every day might know that throw
ing down a measure Of shelled corn
on bare spot is not the way to feed
the hens. And those who do this re-
ceive conclusive proof that there is
something wrong with their feeding
during the time of year when the hen
has no choice of food, but must live
on what is given her by the owner
American Fancier.

Cool Market Poultry.

When large quantities of dressed
poultry are to be shipped to distant
markets thorough cooling should take
place before packing. When a barrel
of still warm poultry is put into a
car there is danger that it will spoil
before being taken out, even though
ice is packed around it. The outside
of the package and for a few inches
inward are rendered cool, but not the
inside. Most shippers of chickens
think that if the consignment is to
be iced all has been done that is nee
essary for its keeping. Experience
has shown otherwise. 1t is little
trouble to get the meat thoroughly
cold before being packed. This is
especially the case in cold weather.
Yet that little" trouble will result in
having the stock come to the market
in good shape.

Fat.Tailed Sheep in Siberia.

Vast tracts of natural pasture In
Siberia are considered ideal for sheep
raising, says the Live Stock Journal
The fat-tailed Tartar sheep Is the best.
At present these sheep are reared for
the fat on their tails. The fat grows
all through the summer and a year
ling will give 20 pounds of tallow. In
the winter months the fat gradually
disappears; it is one of the provisions
of nature. When no more food is to
be had because of the snow the sheep
derive sustenance by absorbing the
tail fat. If housed and fed in the
winter, the fat remains. This fat
tailed sheep is not great wool pro-
Queer, and an inferior breed Is kept
for that purpose.

Dormant Bacteria.

Prof. John L. Sheldon says: Like
some weeds, bacteria may remain dor
mant for long periods. When the con-
ditions necessary for their growth re-
turn they Immediately become active.
Seeds of the cockle-burr, ragweed and
sunflower may lie in the ground for a
year or more without terminating, but
when the soil is stirred up and they
begin to feel the influence of the sun
shine and air, the seedlings burst
from their seed coats and push their
way up through the soil, apparently
all the more vigorous on account of
their long rest.

Bad Policy to Mix Eggs for Sale.

1t is a bad policy to mix eggs OF
different degrees of freshness for the
purpose of making the fresh eggs sell
the poor ones. 1t quite uniformly
results in the bad eggs pulling down
the value of the good eggs. Instead
of the buyer being fooled and paying
fresh-egg prices for stale eggs, the
seller gets fooled and receives for the
fresh eggs he has mixed in the lot
only stale-egg prices. The grocery
man that buys the eggs from the COM
mission merchant is wise enough to
set his price on the value of the poor
est eggs and not on the value OF the
best. If any good eggs were sent to
market the consumption of eggs
would be enormously increased, or
rather the demand for them would be-
This would mean the increase OF
value. Stale eggs should never be al
lowed to go from the farm. To such
as want to work off bad eggs on the
public, we would recommend the Dan
ish method of selling eggs, where
every shipper of bad eggs is fined S1.OO
for each bad egg and is expelled from
the association when he has sent to
market three bad eggs.

Pump Irrigation.

In our western country and even
in some localities in the central west,
considerable irrigation has been done
by the means OF pumps. Some de-
clare that irrigation by means OF
pumps can never amount to much.
But we know that this practice is as
old as civilization, and this mode OF
irrigation has been employed in some
parts of the world successfully for
centuries. There are many places In
our western states, where from five
To fifteen acres of land are irrigated
by pumps driven by wind
mills. Doubtless the future Will see
the further utilization Of the pump,
whether driven by wind or by other
force.
