Tn 2 Lime Juice Island.

Nearly all the lime juice used in the
world comes from the tiny island Of
Montserrat, in the British West In
dies. The lime grows wild in many
West Indian islands, but only in Mont
serrat is it used commercially. That
island is one vast garden Of lime trees,
and nowhere in the world is there q
finer sight than it's thirty miles OF
orchards, laden with the fruit Of the
lime or fragrant with its blossoms.
The fruit is gathered by negro wom-
en-, who carry it down the hills to
the shipping port in big baskets on
their heads. Like all West Indians,
they are remarkable for their ability
to carry heavy weights in this manner.
Once the company which controls the
lime juice industry sought to tighten
the burden of it's laborers by introduce
ing wheelbarrOws.
The negroes filled the wheelbarrows
readily enough, and then carried them
on their heads as they had been used
to carry the baskets. Many a negro
woman will carry a hundredweight OF
lines on her head for a distance of a
mile or more.--Indianapolis News.

There is floating island in DerNv ent
water, England, not far from Lodore
falls. It's travellers are restricted to al
formations between the bottom Of the
lake and the surface. When moved tC
retirement it sinks and remains in wa
terry seclusiOn for periods which vary
from a few months to as long as seven
or eight years It's existence above OF
below water appears to be determined
by the presence within the island of
gases whose quantity governs its buoy
ancy. EsthWaitc lake, in the same
neighbOrhood, boasts a not less puz-
zlng but more amenable island. This
has served as a ferryboat to conduct
as many as fifteen persons at time
across the bosom Of the water upon
which it rides.

COOL CURED CHEESE,
IL Brings "a Better Price Than That
treated In the Ordinary Way.

treated In the Ordinary Way.
Superintendent Joseph Burgess of the
government consolidated Illustration
station for the cold curing of cheese at
Woodstock, Canada. is in receipt of a
valuable report from Hotson Bros,
cheese importers of Liverpool. in refer
ence to the relative value Of cool cured
cheese and cheese cured in the ordinary
way.
The Canadian department of agricul-
ture forwarded to H0tson Bros sam
pies of inspection Of the two lots. The
importers report as follows:
"The cool cured cheese arrived in
Liverpool in much better coalition
than the ordinary cured cheese. 1t was
also Of Il superior quality and was bet
ter in every respect. The ordinary
cheese was sold at a figure one-siXth
less than the cool cured article and in
this connection we may state that it
was the great scarcity Of anything be-
low the best full cream cheese which
enabled Us to get SO high a price for
the ord 2ary cheese and so near the
price Of the cool cured cheese. Gencr-
ally there would have been a much lar
ger margin, as the ordinary cheese was
bad value as compared to the cool cured
article"
Respecting the paraffining Of cheese
HotsOn Bros. add: The experiment
of waxing cheese is one that ought
to be advantageous, but it will take
some time to get the English proju-
dice against it overcome. At pres
ent Englisl dealers do not like it, but
we confess that it has merits which
must influence the producer on your
side Of the line (tLe Canadian cheese
makcr) to continue it. 1t undoubtedly
prevents shrinkage and in our judg-
ment preserves the quality Of cheese"
From the above report cheese manu-
facturers and buyers throughout the
country will readily concede the advan-
tages to be derived from curing cheese
at a proper temperature, as provided
at the government cold curing station
here, instead of curing the product un-
der the conditions existing in the ma
iOrity of the curing rooms Of the cheese
factories of the province today. AL
ready these advantages have been the
means of causing several factory man
agements to build and properly equip
their curing rooms for the cool curing
Of the cheese.-StratfOrd (Ont) Beacon.

A Cautions Answer.

\ writer on New England and New
England people some years ago said
that the caution Of the New Englander
in giving an answer to a direct ques-
ton was illustrated to him one day
when he asked an eastern friend whose
family were not noted for very active
habits, Was not your fathers death
very sudden?'
Slowly drawing one hand from his
pocket and pulling down his beard the
Intercepted cautiously replied, WAL,
rather sudden for him."

Sometimes depressing a client pays a
lawyer we'll. There is Il persistent sto-
~, which probably will never be print
ed as to names and details, that q ia
nous trust magnate paid a lawyer q
million dollars in cash for simply say
ing to him: Don't fight. If you insist
on fighting l will take your case. But
if you fight remember all your books
will be opened and all your methods
disclosed" The bewildering munif-
cence of that instant fee of million
was a record for wise philanthropy
which showed the genius of the phi
lanthropist. Never was a fee better
earned if the tale is true.-Everybody' S
Magazine

In a German law journal may be
found q curious account of woman
who. though actually living, is legally
dead. Some years ago she disappeared
from her home, and after three years
had elapsed the court formally pro-
nounced her dead and turned over her
property to her next Of kin. Soon after
ward she returned to her native place,
and as there was no question as to her
identity she naturally thought that she
would have no difficulty in recovering
her property. TIE court, however fat
ly refused to comply with her request.
You have been declared dead" it viz
tually said, land it is impossible for US
to regard you as living"
ThcrcupOn the woman appealed TO a
higher court, but her labor was in vain,
for the verdict of the lower court was
upheld, and, moreover, an official no.
tico was issued to the effect that tie
plaintiff, having formally been de
ciarcd dead, could not now be restored
to life, as the law understands that
word, and must remain dead until
dOOmSday

EEirNf Test OF thr Air PUMP

The first public test of the air pump
was in 1854 by its INVENTOR Otto Won
GUeric!,e, in the, presence of Emperor
Ferdinand of Germany Guoriclke ap-
piled the carefully ground edges Of
metallic hemispheres, two feet in di-
ameter, to each other. After exhaust
ing the air by his apparatus he at
tached fifteen horses to each hem
ispherc. In vain did they attempt to
separate them because of the enor-
nous pressure Of the atmosphere. The
experiment was q great success.

GyDSieH and Death.

The custom Of placing the property
of the dead in their graves has always
been followed by the true ROmany
gypSioS. 1t is due to some old tradition
of i'll luck attending the possession Of
an article whose former owner is gone,
and much valuable property is buried
in this belief. There is also a senti-
ment among gypsies against the pos
session OF anything that has belonged
to Il dead person, because it serves to
remind the living Of the departed and
inspire III them 4 dread Of death. The
custom of burying their property with
gypsy dead dates from the earliest his
tory of the R0many tribes.

In direct contradiction to the asser-
ton that q clean butter maker and an
unclcan milk supply never travel to-
gether the writer wishes to call attcp-
ton to 4 case which came to his notice
q few days ago. This may be the eX-
copti0n which proves the rule. How
ever, it is the only glaring exception we
can call to mind. Upon visiting this
creamery in the early morning we were
al Cnco favOrably impressed with the
sanitary conditions and appearances.
and the butter maker was as neat ard
tidy as one would wish to meet. We
anticipated having little trouble with
the quality Of milk, Duc we were great
~ disappointed when the first load ar
rived. The milk rs 4 whole proved to
be the poorest it has been our lot to
encounter at any one creamery, and
nearly every can which came to the
creamery was in anything but Il clean
condition. The butter maker was pop
ular with his patrons and was gener-
ally considered a good fellow" In his
desire to remain in possession Of Their
good Will he was exceedingly timiG
about refusing milk which was unfit
for manufacture into butter This case
further strengthens our faith in the
truth Of the assertion that the butter
maker is responsible for the quality
Of the raw material which he receives.

Superstition OF the UnIUc21y Thirteen
When King Arthur founded the ia
nous round table he requested Merlin,
the cnchanter, 20 arrange the seats.
Merlin arranged one set OF seats to rep
resent the apostles. Twelve were for
the faithful adhcrents Of Jesus Christ
and the thirteenth for the traitor Judas.
The first were never occupied save by
knights distinguished for their achieve
mentS, and when a death occurred
among them the seat remained vacant
until a knight surprising him in heroic
and WaIikc attainm"nts should be con-
Sidcred worthy to fill the place. If an
unworthy knight sought the chair he
was repealed 10y some magic power.
The thirteenth seat was never Occu-
pied but once. The story goes that
naughty and inSOIont Saracen knight
sat down upon it and was Immediately
swallowed up by the earth. Ever after
it was known as the ''pcrilous seat"
ana, brave as the celebrated knights Of
the round table are said to have been,
not one ever had the courage to sit Oh
the thirteenth chair, and the supersti
ton against ii still survives.

Ground wheat Of itself does not make
they have great difficulty in eating it,
because when mixed with the saliva
it makes Il thick. sticky paste, says
HOard's Dairyman. 1t is therefore nee
essary when using whole wheat to mix
it with bran or some other product to
overcome this pastiness to a greater or
less degree. 1t might be fed with cut
straw or hay and in this combination
would make an excellent complement
to alfalfa hay. Wheat contains about
IS per cent of digestible nutrients,
whereas bran contains only So per
cent.
Feeding Quality Of yetch Hay.
In a feeding test conducted at the
Alabama experimental station vetch
hay proved fully equal in feeding value
for dairy COWS to bran, pound for
pound, and the substitution Of yetch
hay for bran reduced the cost Of butter
fat % per cent. The vetch hay used
was the hairy vetch. is probable that
the feeding value Of the common vetch
that Of the hairy yetch. In western
Oregon the growth Of the hairy vetch
is apt to be so rank that there is much
waste.
Feeding the Fresh Cow.
Let the food Supplied right after
calying be light for a few days; never
quite as much as she wants. Only
tepid water should be given, as cold
water may bring on a chill and fever.
The careful! dairyman should use
clinical thermometer to determine the
temperature OF q COW from time to
time for few days until danger is
past. Any rise in temperature can be
met in time to ward off serious trouble.
Avoid Extremes In Feeding.
Dairy COWS require some bulky food
with their grain, but care must be
taken not TO so to either extreme If
too bulky the animal must eat too
much in order to secure sufficient n0ur-
ishment If not bulky enough the ami
NAL will consume more nutritive ma
terial than it can digest in order TO pro-
deranges the stomach and causes waste.
Summeg Feed In Winter.

with the ground grains, with hay
