at Raccoon Fork and marched to Fred

commandant of cavalry, in place Of
General Pleasanton.
ION Sunday, July ., the first brigade

other little furry at Red Mills. Then
came the battle of Gettysburg. l was
detailed to take charge of the hospital
at Hanover, which was a few miles
away from the field, and two or three
days after the fight poor fellow was
brought in who had been found in a
wheat field, shot all to pieces. He had
been in the brOiling sun for three days
without food or shelter of any kind,
and he was in horrible condition.
His case seemed a hopeless one from
the moment we laid eyes upon him,
but everything was done to ease his
dying hours, and to make him COM
Portable as he passed out of this world.
Under the direction of the supervising
surgeon, a large dose of morphine was
administered in order that he might
pass away with as little consciousness
Of pain as possible. But forty-eight
hours afterward he still lived and did
not seem at all inclined to quit
Just then young lady from Han

hospital, asked if there were any spe-
cial case of which she might take
charge. She was told that there were,

House for smokinp Meat..


Many farmers sell Off the hogs raised
on the farm and buy the hams and
bacon used in the family, giving as an
excuse that a well-arranged smoke
house Is too expensive for them to
have. The smokehouse shown in the
Illustration, while a homely affair,
gives good service and will cost but
little to build. A dry goods box or a
piano box will answer the purpose
nicely. The bottom is removed from
the box and hinged door is arranged
as shown SO that the meat may be
easily put in and taken out. This
cover Is arranged so that 1t can be
fastened with a staple and hook when
the meat is being smoked. The smok-
Ing arrangement Of this box Is an ideal
one. A hole Is dug in the ground six
or eight feet from the box and trench
dug from the hole to a point about the
middle Of the box. Have a length of
stove pipe fastened to an old, heavy
tin kettle, into which hole has been
cut by the tinsmith. When ready to
smoke the meat build a fire of corn
CO.'S in the kettle, set it in the hole
and add stove pipe lengths to the cen
ter of the house, terminating with an
elbow. After the fire is we'll started
cover the kettle with a piece Of tin, to
force all the smoke possible through
the stove pipe into the house. All

"That's natural responded the 9TH

"Well, the rooster grew careless,

"It wasn't the loss of the eye that
hurt so much as the loss of prestige.
He never was himself again. Every

the hens strutted by without paying
the least attention to him, and even
the chickens sauced him. He pinned

the dreaded black draught. Ordinarily
they would have scoffed at such alb
surdity. If man drank and lived, it
would be notable proof of strength;
but to drink and live and then race for
wife! AS to his crime, it was only
what any of them would have done If
brave enough-he had killed a man!
True, but he had been provoked. He
must be punished, for that was the
law, but they did not wish him harm.
And they all knew Ankona, the gen.
tie one, the dreamer and story maker,
and though none of them revered or
feared him they all had tender place
for him in their hearts. If he could
race with White Egret and win her
they would be glad. But Malabar came
first, for White Egret herself had made
it SO.
Malabar was the first who presented
himself for punishment While he was
in the closed tent the tribe stood
about siaant, with eyes furtively
watching the point whence the con-
demned would walk forth innocent or
be brought forth guilty.
At length the tent flap was raised
and he staggered out. For moment
he stood there in the sunliGht, his
hand to his head. swaying blindly.
Then they saw him throw his should
ers back with a mighty effort, as one
whose will was strong enough to cast
off the weight of all things. Slowly
he turned away from them and strobe
into the forest to be by himself. That
too was Malabar's way
Not until the maidens were brought
forth did Malabar reappear.
81 will race for my squaw at once"
he called in voice that all could
hear, before the White Egret grows
weak through waiting, and shall give
her one-half the distance start be-
cause she is woman. Ankona will
also enter the race with me, and
will give him one-third the distance
because he is but half a man. Lee
them be placed.
The spectators stared and gasped.
Ankona, his rival, to enter the race
and to be given one-third the dis
lance, and White Egret, the feet-foot-
ed to be given one-half! No one
could win a race thus handicapped
And yet was it not Malabar?
He swept them with his glance.
Il shall WIN" he said confidently,
because I will have it So"
Ankona had been watching him with
baleful eyes. For an instant he drew
back as though to spurn the conces-
sion. Then, as he saw White Egret
being led forward to her place, he
hurried to his own position.
And for brief space after the sig
nal was given and they were speed
ing on with straining muscles, he had
wild, insane belief that he would
win.
But only for brief space. Then
came that steady, accelerating, implac-
able rush behind, drawing nearer and
nearer, then opposite, then passing.
When three-fourths of the distance
had been covered, Malabar was four
march PAGES ahead. Suddenly he
turned White Egret was almost
within his reach.
"Stop, Ankona" Malabar called.
"Have 1 not won?"
Ankona did not answer.
"Have I not won?' sternly.
Eyes, Malabar, you have won," An
kona answered. and his voice was
full of great despair.
''It is well. Now, you may go on
and catch the girl. Malabar will have
no squaw who does not come to him

and strobe back into the forest.-New

Feeding Damaged Corn Fodder

1t is utterly useless to feed damaged
corn fodder to cattle that are designed
for market, for they will not gain a
pound of fat on it. If possible, avoid
feeding the frosted fodder at ALL but If
it must be given the stock, furnish it
only after they have been well grained
and had fair supply Of good rough
age; give 1t to them largely for the pur-
pose Of keeping them busy when they
are in the barn between meals. They
will eat little of it and break up most
Of it, SO that it can afterward go to the
hogs to nose over and from there to the
manure heap. In many sections the oat
crop was heavy, but in many instances
badly damaged. If too badly damaged
to sell to advantage, it may be fed, to-
gether with barley and oilmeal, to great
advantage, giving it freely to cattle
that are being fattened as well as to
mich COWS. In feeding this mixture
the oats and barley should be ground
together and the oilmeal added after
ward and we'll mixed through.

with eggs or chicks. Extremes Of heat,

eggs requires about the same care as
three old hens on forty-five eggs. A
