Queen Maria Keeps Her San Busy.

The young King of Spain in May,
1902, will attain his majority. He will
reach the age of sixteen, when the
duties of the State will pass from the
Queen Regent Maria Christina, his
mother, into his hands.
So that he shall be lit for his high
calling his education is being carried
on without stint, and with little pauses
for recreation. French. German and
English he speaks well; indeed, legends
declares that at the early age of two,
when he was decorated with the Black
Eagle by the German Emperor, he en-
tered into conversation in German with
Prince Albert of Prussia, who was Il
messenger from one court to the
other. The King spends several hours
weekly in military pursuits, and is
an accomplished rider. He also stud
les music after long day devoted to
history, literature, geography, mathe-
MATES, and various other subjects. II

Americas Cup is probably the heav'
lest bit OF silverware in the world. Sir
Thomas Upton, that prince of sports
men and genial gentleman, has not
been able to raise that cup or tilt 1t
the least bit in his direction.
1t is estimated that he has spent
about $1,30O,000 to lift it and yet it
firmly maintains its level of the last
half century. He has spent enough
to lift Westminster Abbey an entire
story and still is unable to move that
cup the smallest fraction of an inch
nearer the British Islands.
If he had put that money into coal,
and by it's combustion converted a
small portion of the water he has
sailed over into steam, he would have
power enough TO life the great pyr-
amid. Yet all OF this power directed
against that little cup not been able
to even shake it on its foundation.
Surely this is a wonderful exhibition
of gravity.

People with Artificial Limbs,

They are making artificial limbs so
cleverly these days that the people
who wear them forget they ever srf-

They put in such flexible joints and
such charming rubber feet that the
wearers of these improved legs dance
gayly at balls and cotillons without
raising a question as to the makeup
OF their limbs. There is n man in a

FOUND IN PORTO RICO,
Interesting Field For Students OF Natural
History.


Porto Rico is proving to be an inter-
esting field for the scientists in the
employ o. the Government. They
have already discovered much that is
new in plant and animal life on this
island. The United States Fish Com
mission has been particularly forward
in the work, and as a result has just
issued a series of five bulletins on the
subject of some Porto Rican fishes
until recently unknown to science.
One of these bulletins describes two
new fresh water leeches from Porto
Rico one of them, "Blanchard's leech,"
being of bright crimson on the back
and light orange color on the under
surface. This leech is short and thick,
measuring about fifty-three milli-
metres in length.
The second, which has thus far re-
ceived no name, is very large, nearly
four inches in length. The colors Of
this leech are arranged in stripes of
yellow, red, ash, black, olive and
brown.
Another bulletin deals with $50 or
more sea crabs, shrimps, etc, many
of which are new, and ranging in color
from a screaming crimson to a dull
gray. One of the new crabs is of
bright turquoise blue, another of pale
rose pink, while third reminds one
of majolica pitcher. Others bear
calico patterns, which are simply stun
ming.
Bulletin number 461 is perhaps the
most interesting, as it describes a Ger.
tain class of crustaceans which seem
to be intermediate between shrimps
and Holsters. The eyes Of these lit
tie crayfish are not set in their heads.
but grow on the end of long stalks
sprouting forth from either side Of
the head. The limbs of these strange
creatures resemble toothbrushes, be-
ing covered with q growth something
akin to hair.
The last two Of the series to be
mentioned describe world of new
and strange life, gathered from the
sea lagoons around the island.
The Smithsonian Institution received
recently number of specimens of
bird and animal life from Mona ISL
and, a strange rock-bound island off
the coast of Porto Rico, on which the
Government has just erected light
house.
Mona Island is of limestone forma-
tion, and is literally honeycombed with
caves, some of which are almost as
large as the Mammoth Cave of Ken
lucky, and full of the most wonderful
stalagmites and stalactites.
The island has a peculiar fauna Of
its own-Washington Star.

Results of Careful Selection Of seed.

Results of Careful Selection of seed.
The Importance of good seed cannot
be too strongly urged. A grower OF
wheat in several years experiments
found that it paid well to hand-pick
his seed wheat. The first year he
planted seven and a half pounds OF
hand-piclled wheat on one acre in rows
eighteen inches apart, and at harvest
he threshed out sixty-seven bushels.
The next year the yield was seventy
two bushels, using a little more seed.
On trial row he planted seventy-six
extra fine kernels of seed (weighing
forty-dve grains), and the product was
ten and a quarter pounds, or at the
rate of 100 bushels OF wheat per acre.
The experiments We're made many
years ago by Professor Blount. OF the
Colorado Experiment Station, the seed
being i'll rows eighteen inches apart,
and twelve inches apart in the rows, a
wheel hoe being used for cultivatinS
between the rows. In Belgium all
seeds are carefully hand-picked and
the wheat crop cultivated with the
result that from sixty TO seventy-five
bushels OF wheat per acre may be
found on nearly all farms.

Johnny on the Whale.

The whale is an enormous creature
which inhabits large bodies of salt
water We should not speak of the
whale as Il fish, for he is an animal,
only he can't crawl on land, having
nothing but tail and some fins to
push himself along. Doubtless you
have all read about whalebone. In
comes from the whale in large quanti-
ties, which it carries in its mouth, as
you can see by looking at any suitable
picture Of the whale. Whalebones are
useful to put in sun bonnets, to keep
them from tapping about your face,
and many things besides. A whale
has other bones, which it uses in its
skeleton. You can catch whale by
getting into a small boat in the Arctic
regions, rowing close up to the animal
and hurling a harpoon into it with all
your strength, after which you haul 1t
alongside the ship and cut out its blub-
ber. Whales blubber is made into
codliver Gil and other things, but 1t Is
dangerous to hunt the whale, and
many persons have perished while in
the act. We should always live so as
to be ready for death. There was
man once who captured a large whale
and put him on the cars and took him
all over the country, and you had to
pny twenty-five cents to see him.
When the weather got warm the peo-
pie did not care to see the whale, and
the man got kind of tired and quit.
The whale had previously died
Whales have small ears, but their
hearing is exceedingly good. Johnny

Use and Value of Cut Green Bone.

What the silo has done for the dairy
man the green-hone cutter is doing for
the poultryman. Each in It's field has
solved the problem of supplying a food
that will be eagerly relished, and will
force production at season when ma
ture is against US, and ut minimum
of cost.
The important constituent OF animal
food for poultry is protein, which pro-
duces flesh and feathers and the albu-
Len Of the egg. When given q free
range the fowls will supply themselves
with Gnimal food by catching bugs
and worms when they are obtainable.
The trouble is, nature does not always
supply this food in sufficient quaint
ties even in summer, and during the
winter months it is not to be had at
all. Some seasons there will be pleaty
OF grasshoppers and crickets. and af-
ter a shower the ground will be COW
.red with angle-worms, but durin. a
dry season worms are scarce, and if
the grasshoppers fail to appear, the
poultryman must supply something to
take their place. Nothing answers
this purpose as we'll as green bone.
Fresh bones contain a large percent
age OF protein. The same can be said
of the several brands of meat meal on
the market, but the fresh product is
more palatable more wholesome, cas-
fer to feed and cheaper. Hens have to
acquire a taste for meat meal. 1t
sometimes takes several days to get
them accustomed to eating the mixed
feed containing it. In all my expe-
rience as q poultryTaiser l never saw
the hen or chick that looked twice he
fore eating fresh-cut bone. Meat meal
is liable to become tainted before use

The Oak and Vine.

Jnce rpon a time there was a sturdy
oak thai supported a firmly clinging
vine.
You are very beautiful" said the
oak to the vine, "and this clinging
business is extremely poetic and quite
touching, but it has its drawbacks.
True, you are not very heavy, but you
hold me back by keeping the sunlight

sorb much of the richness OF the soil

Horse Market of the United states.

The United States has Il herd OF 13,
100000 horses, representing a value
over 5000, 900, 600, and more than 2,000,.
900 mules besides. The mules are val.
ued at about S115,000,000. Texas has
1,125, 900 horses and Illinois and Iowa
almost million each. The average
price of horses is, in Rhode Island,
$780, in Nevada, about SIT. Since 1875
horses of the best breeds have been
ntroduced-English, French, Percher-
ons, Normans, etc. There are eight
principal types in the market, to-wit'
The cob, the carriage horse, the Eng.
llsh saddle horse, the American saddle
horse, the roadster, the draft horse,
the range horse of the West, the
Southern horse. There are many
young horses, but at present hardly
more than 100000 four or five-year
olds are available for the market The
st. Louis market sold 10000 horses
and mules in 1899; Chicago, 100000;
Buffalo, G2,000; New York, $1,000.
The export of horse was 2967 head il
1898, 25,126 in 1885, 45,77S in 1899,
64,772 in 1900. The cost of transporta-
ton across the Atlantic never exceeds
$40. The British have lately pur-
chased many thousand animals for
use in the Transvaal, Germany pur-
chased 6000 for use in China, and
Belgium has just bought 1900 cavalry
horses at an average price of $3.50.

Employees Take an Oath.

The recent attempts of a gang of
American swindlers TO victimize the
London banks have drawn attention
to the remarkable precautions which
banking houses take against fraud,
says the London Daily Mail. Every
employe, from the office boy to the
manager, has to take an oath on enter
ing the bank that he will not divulge
the business of the establishment, eX-
cept under compulsion OF law. And he
is not allowed to forget this oath, for
every year the entire staff is assem-
bled in the board room to hear the
oath read over. The effect of this pre-
caution has been admirable.
There is also very great care exer-
cised to prevent fraud by means of
worthless securities and promissory
notes. In almost every bank there is
n department devoted to scrutinizing
all notes which may be deposited for
this purpose. These records, which
have been compiled after years of col
lections, show the standing OF almost
every firm in London. Many a bust
ness house would be dismayed If II
knew that practically all its most cher
ished secrets were known TO the bank
Reference to these records will indi-
cate at once whether the firm concern
ed has at any time dishonored a bill
and so the bank is able to gauge the
value of the securities offered say, for
a loan for three months.
These are merely a few precautions
adopted, but they will serve to give
some idea OF the constant and unre-
mittlng care taken to prevent fraud.

Mahogany hunting is precarious
work. In Central and South America
the mahogany trees do not grow in
groups, much less are there whole
forests of them. They are scattered,
usually concealed in thickets. 1t re-
quires skill and experience to find
them. To fell tree involves the
work of two men for whole day. On
account of thick, horny growth near
the base OF the tree scaffold is
erected around it, aud above this, at
n height of from ten feet to fifteen
feet the tree is cut, so that the best
part is really lost. The felled tree is
then freed OF branches, and hauled on
a rough wagon by oxen to the nearest
river, where RATS are made and t.oated
down.
