SAILING AROUND The COW.
How an Old sea-Cnptain Wa. Mis-
led by the Lowing Of the

Many sea-captain has sailed
around the world since the adven-
furious voyage of-Capt. Cook, but
few navigators have tried what the
captain of an East Indiaman used
to relate MS an experience Of his own,
says the Youths Companion.
He was out one foggy night, and
sounded his fog-horn, as every wise
captain should. From the starboard
side came the sound Of fog-horn, APP
parently from q vessel very close,
and showing no lights, Z 80
.'Port your helm" shouted the cap
tain, and the order was obeyed. Then
he blew his horn again. Back from
the same relative position, although
the ship had altered her course three
points, came the sound Of that an
swering fog-horn. 80
''Hard aport!"' roared the captain:
That, too, was done, and the signal
was tried again. Back from exactly
the same position, although his YES
sci had now changed her course seven
points, came the sound of that fog
horn. paw
The captain, alarmed, was just go
ing to give the order to reverse the
engines, when one Of the officers dis
covered that the supposed fog-horn
was only the COW that was carried
on the forward deck to supply fresh
milk for the passengers.

become more valuable will be. not how
to do with less grass, but how to get,

worn out, Or what is more properly,
termed, "run out" quite asrea Oily and,

experiments conducted in the Iowa
college farm pastures have furnished
striking results in favor of pasture cul-
ture. The application of ten quartsof
clover seed per acre, disced and har-
rowed into blue grass pasture in the
early spring, increased the yield IS per
cent. over pastures Immediately adj
joining that received no treatment.
Pasture lands thus treated produce a
heavier, denser growth, and better va
riety of grasses, and stand drought
better and the improvement extends
over several seasons. This treatment
should be alternated with top dressing,
applied preferably during the fall or
winter. following with the harrow in
the spring. The bestpastures are those
that are never disturbed by the pillow.
