Read and Remember,

The following from the McKean
Democrat, is worthy of careful perusal
by lodge members:
One of the incomprehensive things in
life is why man will join beneficial
order and pay out money year after
year to retain his membership in the
order, but always manages to keep in
arrears just far enough 80 that in the
event of illness or an accident that will
incapacitate him for work, he is not in
good standing with the lodge to the ex-
tent of being entitled to any benefits
when he needs them most. We have
in mind when we pen these lines case
of a young man who belonged to BEN
eficial order, when an accident that ul-
timately resulted in the death of the
young man occurred, and the lodge
books disclosed the fact after the injury
had been inflicted that he was in arrears
on his dues just three days, 30 that he
was not entitled to any of the liberal
provisions the lodge makes for its men,
bers under those sad circumstances.
This ought to be a warning to every
man who belongs to beneficial order
that the only safe way is always keep
your dues paid up in advance, as you
know not when sickness or accident
may overtake you.

Prove Your Fish Stories.

The department of fisheries will
make an exhibit at the st. Louis ex-
position, since the st. Louis commission
of Pennsylvania has made an appro-
priation to the department for that
purpose.
The chief feature of the exhibit will
be stuffed specimens of every large fish
caught in Pennsylvania. ITO do this
properly" said Commissioner Meehan
today "will require the cooperation
of the fishermen of the state.
''It any person has large mounted
fish that he is willing to loan to the
commission we will be very glad If he
will communicate the fact to the de-
partment, giving the name and weight
of the specimen. The freight will be
paid by the department and the speci
mems will all be returned in the same
condition in which they were when
loaned"
Exhibition fish must not be smaller
than the following weights: Black bass
small mouth, Al pounds; sbad, IL
pounds; brook trout, pounds; pick
erel, 6 pounds; bass, large mouth, 2
pounds; muskellonge or pike, 20
pounds; Susquehanna salmon or wall.

Dear Sir: at costs as much to put-or

and true-it costs much more to put on
poor paint; more gallons.
Poor paint is paint and barytes or paint
and sand or paint and lime or paint and
chalk or paint and benzine or paint and
water; these are the usual cheat; there
are others
1t takes more gallons of panhandle.
cheat than of honest paint; and the cost
of the labor of painting is so much gal.
lop-one gallon costs as much as another
for labor.
This is the way to reckon your costs
for this year; but how about next yeari
Paint Devoe, and next year costs moth
ing; year after next the same; the same
for several years.
Paint anything else, and your costs
recur according to what you paint with.
Some of the mixtures wear one year;
some two; some three.
1t costs twice, three times, four times,
five times, as much to paint with cheat
as to paint with Devoe.
Yours truly,

Wanted-0oat Raisers.

Secretary Wilson has taken up the
cause of the goat in the interest OF
American industry. He complains
that twenty five million dollars worth
of goatskins are being imported annu-
ally, with the world supply running
short, while theAmerican farmer fails to
See in the goat chance for great profit.
He has issued some statistics which are
impressive. Whether they will stimu-
late the goat-raising industry remains
to be seen.
There is this to be said for the goat:
that he is ordinarily inoffensive and
lives cheerfully on a diet 30 modest
that he puts to shame all other domes.

The goat loves a quiet pastoral life and
eats any old thing from tomato cans to
thistles and thTiyes Without complain
ing. In the far East the goat is re-
spected for his many good qualities.
His hair is good for cloth, his meat is
excellent-especialy when not too old,
while goats milk is used extensively
and is by many claimed to be in every
way superior to that of the more aris-
tocratic COW. Millions of humanity
live off the goat; why not Americans
The suggestion was made that the
goat be turned loose on some of the
abandoned farms of New England. 1t
seems, however, that although the goat
can live on almost anything he cannot
survive on nothing. The rocks of a
New England farm are too tough even
for the digestion of the goat, and the
movement in that quarter has come to
an untimely end. The Secretary, how
ever, wisely says that any farm in the
country can support a number of goats
without any extra expense, and that it
would not be difficult to supply all the
skins the country consumes if only the
matter were taken up intelliffently.
The thanks of the country are due
the Secretary for calling the goat to
the attention of the farmer. Their g

Saving The Timber Lands.

The rural residents of Pennsylvania
are slowly awaking to the fact that the
new law gives them a rebate of county
taxes for timber land on their pre-
miscs up to so acres. This is likely to
save many valuable tracks of timber laud
and also leave few covers for the ruffed
grouse which are slowly but surely being
driven to pretty small quarters in many
counties in the Northeastern part of the
State. We have seen acres of land
cleared of all standing timber and brush,
afterwards burned over and then left to
grow rank growth of berry bushes and
thistles. This left little protection from
storm for game and placed the land in a
worthless condition for any agricultural
use.
A few years ago many parts of Penn
sylvania afforded fine shooting covers
for grouse. The thickly grown hillsides
and gulleys afforded the finest retreats
for the birds, protecting them from the
gunner and also giving shelter from the
rigors of the winter. Large acreas of
swamp land gave unexcelled preservation
to the game--not only from the sports
men, but from the hawks. owls, foxes and
game destroyers. But for the "advance
of civilization" and the desire for more of
country being cleared, or, at least, of land
was the cause of much of this kind the
heavy timber and brush. The birds and
animals were driven off or burned out,
fell a more easy prey to their natural en-
emies and apparently disappeared from
that section.
There still remains many thousands
of acres of uncultivated land in this State
parts of which will never be entirely
cleared. There is also considerable tim
Der standing, but much of this is yearly
being taken out by lumbermen. 1t is to
be hoped that the new law will be re-
membered and many tracks of timber
will remain uncut, not only as a refuge
and protection for game, but for the good
which it does mankind.
