Harrow for Vineyards and Orchards.
To the constant working Of the soil,
the pulverizing of clods and removal
of the weeds is due in large measure
the productiveness of the best ORCH
ards and vineyards, and if this work
be done with an ordinary cultivator it
not infrequently happens that the ma
chine comes in contact with the trees
or vines, injuring the bark and endan-
gering the life Of the trees. 1t is the
Idea Of the inventor in introducing
the cultivator here illustrated to pro-
vide a machine especially for this
class of work, which will enable the
driver to run in close proximity to the
trees or vines, and even come in con-
tact with them, without injury to the
bark. In manufacturing this machine
a circular frame of channel iron Is
used as a mounting for the teeth, with
spokes leading to a central hub, the
latter being connected directly to the
beam of the cultivator. The outer
edge of the circular frame is grooved
to receive cushion, which is made by
winding soft rope, felt or rubber into

Keen a Few Geese,

Geese are scavengers, like sheep.
They will thrive in summer on any
rough pasturage accessible to water.
A bog meadow covered with wild
grass just suits them. They will foul
more food than they will eat, if allow
ed to roam with stock in clean mead
ows. They should not be permitted
to have the freedom of the farm, if
kept in any considerable numbers. We
do not think a large flock requires spe-
cial facilities, while a small flock can
be trusted to take care of themselves
for nine months in the year. Geese
are as much grazing animals as horses
or cattle. In summer they need very
little grain if they have grass or vege-
tables. In winter they will enjoy life
better and make better breeders in
the spring if their diet is composed
principally Of cut hay, corn-stalks, and
vegetables. For shelter rough shed
with d good roof is all they require.
A Toulouse gander and Embden geese
make a good market combination

Decline in Dairy Exports,

Official figures show quite a decline
in our exports of dairy products, says
National Stockman. 1t may at first
seem deplorable that a great export
trade in these products cannot be
maintained, but closer study will leave
small reason for regret. A big export
trade in butter and cheese is based
on low prices and cannot exist other
wise. When prices here are good, they
are too high for foreigners, and they
cease to buy largely. All efforts to
stimulate the export trade have been
futile in the face of this fundamental
fact and always will be. Inferior
products have done much to injure our
trade in dairy products abroad, but
that is the only quality that could be
secured cheap enough to suit the for
eigner. Fraudulent products are no
longer a drawback, and if our export
trade does not increase it is for the
good reason of dollars and cents in fa-
vor of the home market.

SHARKS GOT THERE FIRST.

Wha1er's Crew Came Near Finding
Fortune In Ambergris.
The officers and men Of the bark
Gerard G. Tobey had narrow escape
from becoming wealthy during the
time spent by the bark in making her
last trip to San Francisco. During the
voyage they sighted the dead body Of
large sperm whale, and secured from
its carcass about four pounds of amber
girls, which is said to be worth $3.50.
Had the bark caught up with this car
cass a week earlier $4,000 worth Of
the valuable stuff might have been Sc
cured. But the many sharks that sur
rounded the body had eaten away the
greater portion Of the whale contain
ing the ambergris before the Tobey
came along.
Capt. Cove was in command Of the
Tobey at the time, and the present
Capt. Scott of the Tobey was his first
mate. When in 80 degrees north lati-
/ tude the carcass was sighted. The YES
sci was brought close alongside Of it,
and Capt. Scott and some sailors went
over to 1t In a boat. When near the
carcass they encountered large school
of sharks, which vigorously attacked
the boat. The sharks were beaten off
with an oar. but the small boat had to
reurn to the bark. A larger boat was
then sent out, and the carcass was
towed alongside the vessel Every one
was on the lookout for ambergris, and
in trice the carcass had been turned
over, leaving it's belly exposed. About
four pounds of small Jumps Of amber
girls was then secured, and had the
whale not been eaten by sharks pre-
viously a hundred pounds might have
been got.
The ambergris secured is worth $12
an ounce on the market at the present
time. 1t is used in the manufacture Of
perfumery.-Honolulu Pacific CONNER

No SQuashes.


One woman, according to the New
York Press, has rebelled against the
prevailing style of millinery. She
went the other day to buy simple hat,
and looked over a large variety, all
decorated with cherries, grapes, straw
berries, hazelnuts, apples and beans.

she, putting them aside.

CARRYING a Lantern.

How many people have tried carry
ing a lantern on a dark night while
out driving and have found it unsatis-
factory? The manner of carrying them
usually blinds the horse and also theo
driver. If put on the dashboard the
shadow of the horse is in the way and
the horse is continually lodging his.

ences the same difficulty. The best
plan is to get an extraordinarily heavy
strap and buckle the lantern to the
throat latch of the horse and there
will be no trouble unless the fame
should occasionally become extinguish--

treatment. Try it. -

One day, while the master was in

rne OMNIBUS.

In the newly issued double part' of
the New English Dictionary, Dr. Muir
ray gives two quotations under the
word Omnibus" which neatly tell the
birth-story Of the vehicle. In q memoir

Stamps, dated April 8, 1929 Mr..
ShilIibeer stated: 81 am - en-
gagged in building two vehicles after
the manner of the recently established
French Omnibus, which when complet-

Grandma's Picket Guard.
Grandma Wilkins was very sick.
The doctor said she must be kept
quiet, and everybody went about on
tiptoe and spoke in low tones. Win
fred looked very sad. He crept softly
into the darkened room and laid some
flowers on grandma's pillow; but she
was too sick to look at them. Soon
after he heard his mother say to Kate,
the cook:
1--WE must keep the door-bell from
ringing, if possible"
''I can do something for grandma"
thought the little boy.
So he sat on the front step, and soon
a woman with a book in her hand
came to the door.
Grandma is very SICK" said Win
fred. Nobody must ring the bell"
The lady smiled, but went away.
Soon a man with a satchel came.
Grandma Is sick, and mamma
doesn't want anything at ALL" said
the boy.
All day long people came. 1t seemed
