How Geese Are Fnttened.

The following method of fattening
is adopted by the English goose farm
er: Geese in good condition should be
shut up in a quiet place, shaded from
light. where they cannot see other
geese at liberty. and should be kept
there from twenty to twenty-five days.
1t is beneficial 10, let them out for
about fifteen to thirty minutes the

in the evening about dusk The meals
they get should be nutritious and a
mixture of barley meal wheat meal,
little cornmeal and boiled potatoes
given twice day is good About the
last ten or twelve days it is advisable
to mix little finely chopped rough fat
with the meal. This has the effect of
Pumping them up, rendering their
flesh much more palatable. A trough
of clear water should be supplied the
birds after the evening meal.

ton and High Prices

Reviewing Germany's commercial
record for the past year, Consul Cen
eral Frank H. Mason, at Berlin. in a.
report to the state department, de-
clares that while few branches of
manufacture and trade experienced a
partial recovery, the year as a whole
belonged to the period of overproduc-
ton, collapse and panic. which began
in the summer of 1900, and has caused
the condition still prevalent, wherein
prices of food and raw materials are
above all logical relation to the market
value of finished products.
Bank dividends and balances. the re-
port says, show decided Improvement
for 1902 over the previous year. and
textile industries. especially the wool
branch, also make favorable show
ing. Depression is noted in the iron
and steel situation. though this in
some degree has been relieved by heavy
shipments to the United States during
the autumn and winter months.
Referring to German trade with the
United States. the consul general calls
attention to the notable increase in the
German exports to this country,
amounting TO $14,s7S.77O. distributed

MODERN CARTHAGE.

For the first time in many centuries
something modern has appeared on the
site of the ancient city Of Carthage
Here, where once flourished the arts of
war and peace, is vast. lonely plain

quering Hannibal marched in triumph

The soil is as rich as it was on the
day when the Phoenicians founded the
city, and the American and his indus
tries have found their way to the his
tOric spot where the Romans wrought
such devastation in their couquests.
Americans, in charge of native work
men. may be seen directing the use of
the modern farming implements in
harvesting or tilling the soil. These
machines are a source of wonder to the
natives, who for generations employed
only the crudest of farm implements.

market there for their inventions a
