while the little throat and neck were
washed.

Telephones, where are they?" cried
the child, with little wriggle Of de-

curls were lifted and the pink ears
washed without the usual outcry.
"Just one thing more, and my little
man is ready for breakfast. These
little shoyels must be cleaned SO they
can pass the breakfast to the little
door," and the dear little hands were
obediently held out for their cleaning.
"Now we will brush the curls and be
ready when the breakfast bell rings"
20 aunty, will you play this game
every time my face Is washed?"
Eyes, darling, and when I go home
you can tell nurse to wash the top Of
the house, and the side, and the win
dows, and the chimney, and the door,
and down cellar"
"And the telephones, aunty; don't
forget them. They are the best part

One Of the performers leaves the

the company names some object that

No o"New-Fang1ed" Farming.
Now the farmer dons his go-to-meetn'
suit
And he hies him to a grangers' institute,
There to hear, in learned lectures,
Agricultural conjectures
And to hark to PROFESSIONAL dispute.
On the platform sit the experts, wise,
sedate,
Each with boards of useful knowledge
meath his pate,
And they tell the farmer how
He should milk the speckled cow
In the fashion most approved and up to
date.
There are papers on Rotation of the
Crops"
Dissertations on "The Proper Poles for
Hops"
And a long, intense debate
On the question, grave and great,
"Should the Barn Be CIeansed with
Pitchforks OF with MopsY
"How to Trace the Willy Weasels to
Their Sources"
Helpful Hints on Painless Dentistry for
Horses
"How to Build Stack of Oats
As Winter Shed for Goats
There are many more such edifying
courses.
Now the farmer sagely mods at all they
say,
And at sundown, having spent pleasant
day,
Homeward hastens to his toll
And proceeds to till the soil
In the very good old-fashioned Jersey
way.

Growing Potatoes,

The quantity of seed potatoes re-
quired for an acre will depend a great
deal upon the size of the potatoes and
the size of the pieces each seed potato
is cut into at planting time. As gen
eral rule it requires from ten to twelve
bushels planted in rows three feet
apart and eighteen inches apart In the
row. This is supposing that the pota-
toes are of medium size and are cut
so that each piece will have two or
three eyes. The land should be rich.
Loan, well fertilized with stable
manure. is as good as any soil that can
be had If the potatoes can be planted
on clover sod, SO much the better. Prai-
rie sod will grow good potatoes, pro-
vided the sod can be well cut up into
mellow seed bed. Ordinarily the
second year after breaking the prairie
is better than the first. Ground which
had no crop last year and was covered
with weeds will contain a great num-
Der of weed seeds, and much labor will
be required to keep the potatoes clean.

HIGH DIVING ELEPHANT
The Gentrys Planned Thrilling
Act, but Hugo Broke
His Neck.

The Gentry Brothers are probably the
greatest and most successful animal train
ers in this country, and during their SIX
teen years in the trained animal sho"
business have never had but one failure.
That was two years ago when they at
tempted the wonderful feat OF Dreaklng
an elephant to do a high dive.
Instead Of breaking the elephant the
elephant broke his neck,' said w. W..
Gentry the general manager OF the snow
which is in Minneapolis this week, ana
himself wonderfully successful trainer.
Mr. Gentry conceived the idea from wit
Messing a pair Of high diving horses per-
form in Indianapolis. Taking the train for
Bloomington, Ind, the next day, where
the Gentry winter quarters are located, he
selected an elephant, erected hugh div
ing apparatus and begun work. 1t was
three months before any progress was
made, but patience has it's reward eventu-
ally, and before another three weeks were
over Gentry thought he had at last
| reached the pinnacle OF animal training
and that Gentry Brothers owned the only
high diving elephant on earth. The print
| ing houses were given orders to send
down their sketch artists, that pictorial
| posters might proclaim to the world
| the new sensation wonders Of wonders
| a high diving elephant. q
| The artists arrived with the, day Of the
initial performance but returned ike they
came-without the photograph Hugo,
the now deceased trumpeter mounted the
! huge steps heroicaly, amid the applause OF
the combined population Of Bloomington.
and just as heroically started the ascent.
AS the fatal plunge was made. something
| went wrong with the apparatus, and poor
Hugo plunged headforemost to his death.
| Gentry covered his eyes with the back Of
his hand, gazed in a dazed sort Of way at
his three brothers and exclaimed, what
| do you think of that?'' >
II think you have played the dickens"
said his little brother Frank, and that
marked the first and only failure the
Gentry's ever made. When asked this
morning if the idea had been abandoned,
Mr.. Gentry replied in a sad, soft voice that
| he thought it had. You see," said he
| elephants cost lot of money! and be-
| sides this is the first and only animal we
| ever injured or killed while training, sc
I guess we will remain content in the
| high diving line with Rags the high div
ing dog. and Don Juan, the monkey tina,
| loops the loop"
The Gentry show is giving daily mat
inees and evening performances this week
on Thirteenth street near Ncollet and the
big crowds are quite satisfied, with the
program as. 1T is, even without an ele.
phantine high diver
