HORSES FOR eRlTA,N.s ARMY.
They Are sspplied Almost Exclusively
by New Orleane.

They Are ssupplied Almost Exclusively
by New Orleans.
The figures in the animal army that
the British have employed in their efforts
in South Africa are amazing. Over Co.,
GOO horses and mules have been employed
in the war by that one side. Five hun
dred thousand Of these have been slaugh-
tered or have died of disease. Over 16O,-
600 have been supplied by the United
States, 500. 10000 has been spent mount
ing and remounting the British cavalry,
supplying and resupplying the muscle
with which to move their artillery and
furnishing and refurnishing their pack
trains.
The British remount establishment at
New Orleans is a tremendous affair. 1t
is the largest agency for the equipment
of an army that has ever been maintain
ed by one country ut war within the bor-
ders of neutral country. 1t has attract
ed not only the attention of the Boers
and their sympathizers, but the CONNER
cial and diplomatic eye of all the great
nations; and it is claimed that without
this "base of supplies" as the Beers term
it, the Transvaal army would eventually
cope successfully with the British. A
suite of rooms as an Office at the st.
Charles Hotel are the headquarters OF
the "American Commission" On tho
river front several miles below the City
are the corrals, covering thirty or forty
acres. The stables will accommodate
1000 animals and the pasture that many
more. There is large hospital depart
ment, where corps of veterinary sur
geons are always at work, branding
department and innumerable others. In
stead of falling off as the war progresses.
the station is growing continually, and
the output from it is considerably more
to-day than it was at the beginning of
the war. About three transports a
month used to leave. The number is now
about double that, with the cargoes av-
eraging from 1,600 to 1000 head.
The shipments from other stations have
fallen off and some of them have been
closed altogether for the benefit of the
one in New Orleans. Some of the other
countries have been drained, practically.
of worthy animals. That is, they are so
scarce now that It does not pay to pur-
chase there any longer pieccmeal and at
the necessarily advanced figures. The
prices of animals in other countries were
always higher than in this, and now,
SNCA tuouSu luc prices mere uuNe more
than doubled in consequence of the enor-
nous drauglt, those of other countries
are from 80 to IS per cent higher.
In the beginning Texas furnished all
the animals, and the proximity of the
ranches of that State to the port was
the cause of the establishment of the
shipping depot in the Crescent City. 1t
was said by several of the British Off
GERS that Texas could supply all the

horses and mules the country would need,
for the war would be over-in two or three
months. But Texas has been drained,
and Arkansas, and Tennessee, and Ken
tucky. and they are now sought as far
north as Oregon. In 1899 there was
such competition in the sale that mules
OF the best quality were procurable for
$40. but now more than half that figure
in pounds sterling is the price. and the
freight from the point of purchase has
increased in proportion to the increase of
distance from this point.
The fleet of transports lie at anchor in
the Mississippi just below the city. Cen
orally three or four are in port at time.
When one is ready for loading it is dock
ed and the animals are driven aboard
through long runways, tapered like a

Value OF a Cabinet Post.

RI A cabinet officer, who not very long

charges at your leisure"

The New York Board Of Health Find It

Dangerous to Health and Dump

The New York papers report that the
Health Department Of that city has
seized as dangerous to health nearly
two tons Of cheap mixtures sold for
baking powders and dumped them into
the offal scow to be destroyed. More
Of the powder was found in Sixth ave-
nue. department store. The report Of the

lied rock.
The different Health Authorities seem
to have different ways Of repressing the
sale Of bad baking powders. In Eng
land they have prosecuted the grocers
under the general law and broken up
the traffic. In Missouri the sale of alum
bakingpowder is actually prohibited by
law. In New York they seize the un-
wholesome stuff and cast it into the
river, without any discussion. The lat.
ter way is certainly effective.
The alum baking powders are usually
offered at low price, ten to twenty
cents pound, or with some prize, as a
temptation to the housewife.
Consumers can protect themselves by
buying only high-grade baking powder
of established name and reputation.
Do not be tempted by the grocer to
take something else as "just as good
or "our own brand" for the trials show
that the grocer himself is often de-
ceived by unscrupulous makers and is
selling an alum powder without know
ing it.
There are several good powders on
the market; let the housekeeper insist
on having what she knows is right.

THE 17-Y'EAR LOCUSTS

Warnings Being Sent to Asricultur-
ists-Weird and Interesting Insects
Buried In the Earth Seventeen Years
Only Few Days Above Ground.

One Of the greatest pests to which the
agriculturalists of this country are sub
jected Is occasioned by the insects known
as locusts. Every year certain types of
these winged creatures make their APP
pearance, but they are always the worst
during the period marked by the advent
Of the 17-year locusts, the last visitation
Of which was in 1885. Hence they are
due again this year. Warnings are being
sent out by the State commissioners of
agriculture all over the northern and
eastern parts of the United States.
Rene Bache writes very Interestingly
Of this little insect in the Philadelphia
Times. He says: This locust Is the
wierdest and in some respects the most
interesting of all insects. No other
known insect lives for anything like SO
long u time, and surely nothing can be
more strange than habit which requires
an animal to spend so extended period
