NARROW ESCAPE.

Horse Fell Through Edgewood Avenue
Trolley Trestle-Wrecker Sent to Res
cue Him.
A large horse attached to one of D.
NJ WEIGH & Sons grocery sleighs got
frightened while going out Edgewood
avenue at 6:45 o'clock last evening, and.
'shying, threw the driver out and rush
ed madly out Edgewood avenue. Com
ing to the narrow trolley trestle which
crosses the West river at that point, he
tried to pass over and when in the
middle all four feet sunk between the
tracks. He kicked furiously, and in
some wonderful manner he got himself
out Of his uncomfortable position. and
on reaching the further side he sank to
the ground.
In the meanwhile some one telephon-
ed for the wrecker with DR.. Kelley
aboard, but on its arrival, instead of
finding the horse between the rails, he
was found where he had staggered and
then fallen on the further side. DR..
kelley. after an examination, did not
think that the horse was badly hurt,
and he was led back to his stable on
Beers street.
The driver when thrown out landed
on a snowbank and escaped injury.

Rare Volume.
M. A. Brisson, the French writer,
relates an anecdote of a well-known
Frenchman, an octogenarian, who
spent most of his time in his younger
days in Paris hunting up valuable
books among the secondhand book
shops. He was bachelor, and for a.
housekeeper had an extremely plain
woman, who, however, had caught
from her master the taste for old
books. One day the housekeeper ap-
peared with a parcel of books wrap
ped in paper and asked her master
to look at them. Among the rubbish
was a small volume bound in red
morocco. What have you paid for
this?" the master gasped after look
ing at: the title page. Thirty sous
for the lot,'v the servant replied. ''But,
my good woman, this book alone is
worth 10000 francs!" the biblio-
maniac went on, and the moment
after regretted the unwise speech.

said. But monsieur said just now

The Farmers Pork.

Happy the farmer that today can
produce the pork for his own family
and not have to depend on the open
market for it. He can produce the
kind of pork that suits him best and
he can save all the expenses of ship.
ping, freight, commissions and profits
of wholesalers and retailers. More
over, he can produce a pork that is
healthy. He can feed foods that will
produce a hard instead of soft pork.
In the production of hogs for market
the objection to producing a high.
class hog is that such a one costs
the farmer some more. in the way of
feed and that he gets no more for
him. When the farmer has himself as
a customer he can afford to produce
this high-class hog, for he knows that
he will get the right price for him.
The aim of the breeder when pro.
ducing pork for his own table should
be to produce pork that contains
a very large proportion of lean meat
and very small proportion of fat:
This will be in the interest Of health.
Pork and potatoes will be then more
of a balanced ration.

Keeping a Record.

: At Wisconsin farmers institute D.
B. Foster said: In the most con-
venient place on each side by my
stable I hang spring scale and very
conveniently is placed lead pencil
and a card (about 511ax15 inches for
ten cows, small as possible, SO as to be
handy, ruled and cross ruled, to make
one square for each cow for each day
of the month. The weight Of the
morning milking for each cow is put
in the top of her particular square
and the night weight underneath. The
scale, pencil and record must be con-
venient, and the work of recording
will soon become fixed habit just as
much as the brushing on Of the cows
udder, or any one of the thousand
things we do without ever thinking of
the work it is nor the time it takes
At the end Of each month a new card
replaces the old one, which goes to the
house to be figured up and entered in
the yearly record book, SO as to show
just how many pounds of milk each
cow has given each month since she
came to my dairy.
