Glfn Fishing in Lanan.

"At Gifu we were entertained with
one of the most curious sights have
ever witnessed" said a st. Louis trav-
eler in the Globe Democrat This
was the famous Gifu fishing, of which
all travellers in Japan love to relate.
We went with the natives in open
boats, near midnight, in a mountain
stream. At the prov was n wire bas-
ket filled with flaming wood. One Of
the fishermen was near this. He held
in his hands strings, 70 which were tied
live birds. species Of duck.
The glare of the torch attracted the
fish to the surface of the water When
one OF the birds sighted a fish it would
dive after it and usually succeeded
in capturing and swallowing it. When
a duck had swallowed several fish and
its neck appeared fat with them the
fishermen pulled it into the boat. Then
one of the men would destrously
squeeze the ducks neck so that it
would vomit the fish, still alive, into
large basket.
'.The fish captured are a species of
trout and are considered great deli
cacy. The Japs eat their fish boiled
in kind of soup. and half raw. We
encountered this dish. also numerous
other Japanese dishes. which we found
far from savory. Americans, as rule,
do not take kindly to the native dishes
of Japan. Nearly everywhere, how
ever. it is possible 10 get what one
wants. In going into a japanese res
taurant it Is customary to stop in the
kitchen and select the WANTS one de-
sires to have cooked for his meal

To Keep Cabbage.

The burying of cabbage heads down
and roots up is a mistake, although the
custom is an old one. When the heads
are buried and the ground becomes
frozen the cabbages are completely
sealed up and cannot be used Later,
as the ground thaws, the q Is begin
to rot, and large proportion of them
are lost from that cause The proper
plan is to select high location, open a
row with a one-horse pillow, put the cab
bages in, roots down and heads out,
placing them close together, the heads
slanting so as to turn water. Next make
another row, throwing the dirt on the
roots of the cabbages in the first row.
When all the cabbages are put In they
will be in compact mass. Place straw
on the heads and boards on the straw,
to shed rain. If preferred, the cabbages
may be thus placed under a shed and
covered with straw. If the roots are
put in the ground and the heads out
the cabbages will be alive, the stalks
will give crops of sprouts for early
green's in the spring and not head will
rot, while they may be cut off from the
stalks at any time when wanted,
whether the ground Is frozen or not, by
simply lifting the straw. In fact, they
will keep In such good condition as to
begin growing IN the spring, if not dis
turbed, in the effort to produce seed

The kind of cattle to feed depends
on circumstances. AS rule the good,
well-bred steer will make the most
money because he makes the most of
his feed-that is, he puts it where it
ought to go, into the high priced cuts
of beef. But sometimes it pays best
to feed common cattle and very COM
mon ones when they can be bought at
a correspondingly low price. They
usually make good gains, and, having
been bought very low. they may sell
at big advance over their cost to the
feeder. though still away below the
top of the market. Common light
feeders are selling in Chicago at $3.50
to So and good ones at $4.75 to $5.25.
There may be more money in the
stuff costing $3.50 than in the five
dollar stuff, because when fat bigger
advance may be secured for 1t. This
Is a year when good feeders are hard
to secure at a reasonable figure, and
hence attention is called TO the cheap
er and commonel kinds. But the
feeder should remember thstt the COM
mon cattle must be bought very low.
There is no pleasure in their company,
and it is only justifiable when they
make good money. to do which they
must be laid in cheap.-National Stock

The large feeders generally prefer
lamb feeding, rather than the older
sheep, as they get quicker returns and
generally secure higher prices in pro-
portion TO the investment. Good feeders
can make lightweight feeding lambs
often double in weight In a four
months liberal feed 1t would not do
for the average feeder to figure on such
returns, however. Older muttons, on
the other hand, do not gain flesh so rap
idly as lambs, nor do they bring so
much on the market, the margin be-
tween the two ranging from $3.50 to
81. From this must be deducted the
difference in the cost of feeders, as
lambs sell higher than do thin muttons,
the difference sometimes amounting to
81 per hundred weight. All other things
being equal, it is a generally accepted
statement that there is more money in
lamb feeding than mutton feeding. The
big exception to this, and one that
ought to be taken advantage of by all
feeders, is that feeding muttOns can
often be bought at bargains A bunch
or two of well-bought thin sheep from
one to two years old, whether ewes or
wetlers, will often make a feeder far
more money than his remunerative
bunch of lambs. In this country it is
good rule that if one should see a
cheap bunch of thin sheep not to miss
the opportunity to buy it, as it will
surely net a profit.-Field and Farm.

Thomas Mast was by long odds the
most famous cartoonist of his time, and
from his pencil came some of the most
effective political arguments ever ad-
vanced in American politics. Perhaps
his mos. noteworthy conception was
that Of the Tammany tiger.
Mr.. Mast was born in Landau, Bava-
ria, in 1910, and came to this country in
1876. After short preparation in
drawing and painting, he went to work
at the age Of Is in New York for Frank
Leslie. He afterwards went to work for
Harper's Weekly. II was soon sent to
the Civil War battlefelds and camps.
His cartoons published during the
presidential campaign Of 1872 especially
were remarkably effective, and even
more so were his caricatures OF Boss
Tweed, which in n great measure were
responsible for the overthrow and sub
sequent arrest of Tweed.
At one time Mr. Mast was fairly well
off, but he lost much of his savings in
the Grant & Ward failure. In May lie

An Exnenaive Fond.

Potatoes are the most expensive of
all the staple foods. They contain
from T50 to 800 pounds of water in
every 1000 pounds. the solid matter
being mostly starch. The farmer also
finds the potato crop one of the most
exacting in Us requirements of labor.
one of the greatest obstacles being
warfare against beetles and diseases.
AT present prices potatoes are more ex-
pensive than beef. considering the ac-
tual proportion of nutritious matter
contained. but it is only when prices
are high that the potato crop Is very
profitable. owing to the expenses nee
essary for its cultivation.

Gent1e treatment of Cows.

Every owner of a COW should see that
gentle and quiet means are used in
drawing the milk from her. Many
good cows are spoiled by rougn milk
ing. When 1t can be done, the same
person should milk the same cow every
time. Gentle treatment will surely pay,
and the matter of profit should always
be kept in the foreground. We like to
see the cow reach around and lick the
mixer; then one can be sure that har-
mony does prevail.
