restaurants in this respect, and have
large, tin-lined baskets, in which the

other hint is that the work of a kitch-

r The French kitchens are models in
this respect, and the apartment kitch-.

least it's working center should be
confined to a much more restricted
place. Cover the tables with zinc; as
they are then much more easily
cleaned and afford a smooth surface
for work; see that the kitchen table
is sufficiently high, that the cook need
not stoop in standing before it; sinks,
too, should be fully waist high to save

AN ECCENTRlC DINER.

How French Millionaire Spent His
Fortune at the Paris Cafes.
Paris is par excellence the city OF
gourmets and cranks, and many a
story concerning them has added to
the gaiety of the nations. Here is one
Of the latest, told by a well-known
French head waiter. One of the reg
ular customers of q famous Partisan
restaurant used to be short thin, shy
and shabbily dressed man, whose name
no one knew, but who gave out that
he was butter dealer, for which rea-
son he was called the butterman at the
restaurant in question. He ate next
to nothing, but his soup tureen, filed
with soup specially prepared for him,
was always put before him. He took
few spoonsful and had it taken away.
Next came whole fillet of beef, from
which he cut the tiniest slice. Then
followed four quail or large chicken,
of which he ate one mouthful together
with two lettuce leaves and one rad
ish. His dessert was four grapes
never single one more-and a cup
of coffee. A bottle of the best claret
and another of the best champaign was
served with the repast, but he only
touched his lips with drop of them,
and let them go. He took two of these
meals a day, and the price for each
meal was 120 francs. But this was not
all. Every time the butterman got up
from his extraordinary meal he gave
40 francs to the head waiter, who put
his food on his plate, since the guest
did not like to handle spoons or dish
es; 20 francs to the waiter, 10 francs to
the lady cashier and 5 francs to the
porter. Thus each meal came to 200
francs. The head waiter of the restau-
rant often did slight errands for him,
buying his cigars, etc., and took them
to the Grand Hotel, where the butter
man lived. The little old man would
then open the drawer of wardrobe
filled with heaps of banknotes of from
100 to 600 francs in value and with an
enormous mass of gold pieces. PAY
yourself said the owner, and the
head waiter did SO, putting the bills
before his patron, who never deigned
to look at them. One day the, myste-
rious millionaire went awav and was
never seen again-Westminster Ga

the best method to use in feeding any

Why Feed Green Cut Bon.?


From Farmers Review: The above
is question every poultry breeder
should consider, as every poultryman
is after an article for feeding that will
lessen the feed bill, provided the ar
ticle in question gives the desired re-
suits when fed. In green cut bone we
find such food.
Some one may ask, What is green
bone and where can l get it?" It is
the fresh bone that comes from, the
butcher shop, cut or sliced by ma
chine made for the purpose. Nearly
every family can save few bones
from the kitchen table; while such
bones are not quite 80 good as those
fresh from the butcher shop, they are
we'll worth saving. BY analyzing an
egg we find it to be composed largely
OF lime and nitrogenous compounds
These elements we also find in a green
bone. Thus it is evident that by feed
ing green cut bone we are, to certain
extent, giving the hens all that is nec-
essary for the production of eggs. OF
course they, must have a. variety of
other food: and plenty of fresh water
at all times.
I have found that the fowls fed
green cut bone are less liable to dis
ease than fowls not so fed, because the
green bone supplies elements that in
vigorate the fowls and give them pow
er to resist the encroachments Of dis
ease. ~ s.*s4. J. s@szi~. Il -.

Coloratao's Fields of Alfalfa Exceed He1
Mines in Value.
Great as is the wealth of the state
of Colorado in silver she has far
more valuable product in the royal
purple alfalfa that supplies fodder for
the imam merable herds that roam the
plains and feed in the valleys. Last
year the value of the alfalfa crop was
placed at $10,0 900 900, yet that does not
represent it's .contributory worth. In
1862 the introduction of this grass into
the state solved the problem of forage,
which up to that time had puzzled the
pioneers, who had not been able to
raise successfully any other form of
forage. Alfalfa made possible the great
stock growing industry of the state.
Last year the aggregate number OF
horses, CATTLE, hogs and sheep, accord
Ing to the assessors returns, was 4;0oO;-
900, valued at $45,000,OO0. Excepting
the range sheep and cattle and some
horses in the cities alfalfa formed the
greater part of the food of all these
animals. Thus dairying, new but
rapidly developing industry, depends
on the alfalfa. The great grain farms
and potato ranches need this product
as WELL Alfalfa is peerless as soil
renovator ond enricher It's long roots,
penetrating TO a depth below the sur
face that other plants cannot reach,
gather the needed elements and, decay
ing, liberate them for the benefit of
future crops. The Colorado farmer has
learned that rotating crops of wheat
and alfalfa make the average yield of
wheat in Colorado Is bushels to the
acre, while the average for the whole
country is less than IA bushels. The
same rotation has produced the famous
Greeley potato, as inimitable in it's way
as the Rocky Ford melon The Colo
rado stock raiser has discovered that
cattle may be fattened at home with
out sending them to corn states, and
that alfalfa produced beef, not tallow
He has discovered that pigs turned into
the alfalfa patch during the summer
are ready for market in the fall, and
that '"alfalfa mutton" brings the top
price in the east The small rapcher
knows that his chickens, geese, ducks
and Belgian hares are finer for the
alfalfa that forms part of their daily
food, and that his alfalfa honey equals,
if it does not excel, the delicious white
sage honey of California.

Wheat Hay.

AS you have solicited me, will give

R. W. Milan to the Graphic, local
Georgia paper. Six years ago began
cutting wheat in the dough state, and
treating it as hay, and so satisfactory
was the result that I have annually
increased my acreage from two acres
to sixty-fve. During my twenty years
experience in growing forage plants
for horse feed, have never yet found
anything that equals wheat as per-
feet feed for horses and mules L

quality in wheat than in any other
kind OF forage. It grows in the win

Fate of Trespassing Hens.

"A chicken that climbs fences
into your neighbOr's garden is like
the old time Indian, good when he
is dead" A Wala Walla lawyer
made that statement while dispens-
ing law on the subject of unruly
hens, says the Union. Fights, civil
actions in the courts, feuds and
even bloodshed have been occas-
Toned by the scratching hen until
even the lawmakers of the land
have taken up the subject, and bills
have been drawn up, submitted,
debated upon and in some instanc-
es passed, to regulate the actions of
the feathered disturber, but the hen
doesn't seem to care, and even now
an occasional gardener is heard to
mourn because of the loss of his
crop. A hen statute provides that
in case a stray chicken shall be
caught trespassing, the chicken
may be killed and the owner mott
fled of the action taken. The TAX
ing of the life of the bird is all that
is allowed, and after destroying it
the person who performed the act
has no right to retain the dead
body.

THE sale of real estate

THE sale Of real estate in this
county upon which taxes for 1905
or previous years are due, common
ces at the county seat today. The
lands to be sold consist almost Who'll
ly of lots lying within the incorpo-
rated cities of the county which were
given fictitious values in the early
boom days, the taxes in many cases
being more than the lots are worth.
One property which is advertised
for sale is the Pullman auditorium,
upon which the back taxes amount
to nearly $4,000 the building being
originally assessed at So, 900, which
would make the yearly loss about
$500, together with penalty and in
terest. Manager Chapman, of the
auditorium, has this week had the
scenery and other fixtures removed
from the house, and announces that
he will attempt to effect sale of it
to get out the amount he has invest
ed Ill the property, 1t is a matter
OF deep regret that the house should
be dismantled, but it is hoped that
the people of Pullman will ere long
see their way clear to organize a
stock company, and clear the prop
erty of the liens against it, and run
it as a public enterprise. The city
is now running to point where the
house could undoubtedly be made a
paying proposition. It was origin
ally built by the citizens as a stock
company, but i'll the panic of 90 the
company was unable to carry it.
The city certainly can not afford
to let the house stand long idle.
