Cnw Peas For Poultry.

Several tests have recently been
made with a view of determining the
relative merits Of cowpeas as egg
wheat. oats. etc. In each case the
producers. as compared with corn.
peas. after maturity. were harvested
and stored in dry lofts. and thrown to
the fowls in the scratching pens.
where they were scratched over and
searched for during the whole day.
After a few days. the egg supply vis'
IDLY increased. and within few weeks
almost doubled that from an equal
number of hens kept in separate quar-
ters and fed on other grains.
The hens seemed 10 like the sma"
branches and leaves and would eat
every particle except the hard. stiff
stems. The general health OF the
flock was excellent. and not Il single
hen howed the least symptom OF aii-
ment during the whole winter sea
son. Considering the ease with which
cowpeas may be raised. it seems that
every one should give them a test as
food for the poultry.-Homc and

An Involved Decision.

The magistrates of Fremantle, the
principal port of Western Australia,
have given a new and interesting deci.
sion in reference to stowaways.. Five
of these free trippers were brought
to the bar and fined three pounds each.
OF course, they had not the where
withal to pay. and the prosecuting
lawyer asked for the alternative i'm.
position OF imprisonment. But the
magistrates declined, unless the cap
tain of the steamship would guarantee
the cost OF the maintenance OF the
men in jail. This he naturally refused
to do. whereupon the stoways were
set free. The magistrates stated that
stowaways are punished in the inter
ests of shipping companies, and there
3 Ethese latter should bear the cost.
- lso expressed the opinion that
- should be more diligently
Sas4ened h for stowaways before leaving
port. The present practice Of allow
ing crowds Of frienls Of passengers
TO remain on board until almost the
last minute facilitated the operations
of stowaways.-London Daily Chroni.

TRAGEDY OF THE CAUCASUS.
Peasant Murdered His Son "at tho
Command Of God"


In the village Of Bayandour, in the
Caucasus, lives a man named Ivan
Aslamazoff, who a few weeks ago
started the community by cutting the
hroat Of his seven-months-old soH on
the threshold of the church. He was
J. once arrested and taken before a
hdge, whereupon he gave an extraor'
Sinary explanation Of his conduct.
A few years ago, he said, he was
very sick. and one night st. John ap'
reared to him in a dream and took
him into a valley, where he saw God
seated on a throne Of gold. The Al
mighty, he continued, then said to
him: Ivan, l will restore your good
health to you, but in time you Will
have son, and as soon as he is sew
en- months old you must offer him up
as a sacrifice" Aslamazoff said that
many times since then he had prayed
God to spare his son, but that, as the
Almighty made no response, he con-
sidered il his duty to sacrifice him.
His story made great impression
in the people. and the general opinion
has that he had acted like saint and
VT the authorities had no right to
arrest him.-New York Herald.

rIarves,iur and Keep.ng Sweet Potatoes

Harvesting and Keeping Sweet Potatoes.
Guy G.. Bell. Of KnoXvilic, Eastern
Tennessee, says. In Eastern Tennes-
see we give the potatoes as much time
as possible to grow and perfect them
selves, so we generally wait till about
the first frost to begin digging. Use
a good turning plow. run it between
the ridges so as to cut the vines with
the share. After the ridges have been
turned. use fork hoes in raking the
potatoes out of the dirt. Break from
vines, and lay the potatoes from three
rows together. Place them in boxes
with as much care as possible. Haul
inc. to the celia we use platform
he'd made Of thin boards fifteen feet
long. This keeps the potatoes III a
springy motion and prevents them
from being bruised.
We never allow potatoes to stay IN
the field over night. The cool air chliis
them and iaiures them for marker.
The vines should never be removed
from the ground. as we consider them
one OF the best Of fertilizers. To keep
sweet potatoes through winter die Il

leaving one or two feet of space De-
tween them and the cellar cover.
Keep the cellar we'll ventilated until
cold weather. Cover the floor over
them with hay or sawdust. so as to
make the Collar rs near airtight as
pessihlo. The cellar must be Kept at
a tcn,pnraturc of forty Eight to fifty

tatoes will sprout. The cellar shouiu

the potatoes with dirt. sand. fodder
or ANYTHING else inside, as it is hahie
to carsc them to rot. In the spring
the rotatoes will be found as peTfect
as when they were dug. Two years
axs we nut up o0O0 bushels. In all OF
