FOG SIGNALS AT SEA.
HOW Ship Captains Are Guided by
the Sirens, Or Horns, Through,
the Channels.

A large proportion of the disasters
at sea are due to fog, and any method
by which the whereabouts of vessel
can be ascertained in thick weather
must be regarded as a great boon. A
system is now under trial at Fame
Point, on the Gulf of St. Lawrence, a
place where fogs occur frequently,
says Chambers Journal. To under
stand the nature of the new fog-signal,
let us suppose that at certain place
there are four, powerful fog-horns,
spread out fanwise, SO that each points
in different direction. Each has it's
distinctive speech, so many blasts,
long or short, sounding every minute
or so. These sirens can be heard, un-
der favorable conditions, at distance
of from Is to 20 miles. An approaching
ship, when it comes into the zone of
sound, will hear all the sirens; but one
will be much palmer than the other
three, for the vessel will be within it's
particular arc of sound. In a short
time, as the ship moves onward, it will
come within the influence of the next
siren, and so on. AS the captain of the
ship possesses the key to each set Of
signals, he soon notes which is the
siren whose sound-waves are most
distinctly audible; and, as he knows
the exact direction in which it points,
he can get a very good idea of the po-
sition of his ship. y

AVARICE IS HEALTHY.
Keeps One Cool, Encourages Indus
try, AbstemiOusness and
Staadin ess. a.

'The passions effect on the health
is not sufficiently regarded,": says a
physician in the Philadelphia Record
..:The passion which is best for the
health is avarice. It keeps one cool,
encourages regular and industrious
habits, leads to abstemiousness and
makes against all excess. And hence
the avaricious, the misers, live to a
great age. The misers of history were
all noted for their longevity. Rage is
very bad for one. The passion causes
an irregular, intermittent beating of
the heart, and the intermittency in
time may become chronic. Hatred
creates fever. If we hate we grow
lean. This hot passion eats us like a
flame. Fear is bad for the nerves, the
heart and the brain, and, therefore
we should never permit ourselves to
be afraid. But the strangest effects OF
all have been caused by the passion OF
grief. The medical books record
cases where, coming suddenly, in a
violent shock, it has caused loss OF
blood from the lungs in one person
paralysis of the tongue in another, and
a failure of sight, or temporary blind
ness in third" .

Care of the Sow and Pigs.

The brood SOW, which is due to far
row in short time, should be given
the best of care and treatment that
she may be able to pass through far
rowing and sucking time with the
least possible loss Of flesh. Her feed
should consist OF a balanced ration,
that she may be able to supply all the
demands of the growing pigs, and it
should be of such form that it will not
be constipating; but rather acting as
a laxative. A good ration for preg-
nant SOW, to be used up till time OF
narrowing, consists Of grain ration
Of corn and slop composed of equal
parts of mlddlings and gluten feed
with a little bone mea, and oil meal
added She should be fed literally
on the above feeds until day or two
before narrowing when the corn should
be dropped and oats substituted. This
will serve as a laxative and will help
to alleviate the fever which arises
during farrowing. Her treatment
should be such that she may be petteu
at any time during farrowing, when
she should be attended, and as fast as
the little pigs come they should be
dried and placed where they may
suckle Immediately Publication Iowa

Mrs. Baer and Child Labor.

Mrs. George F. Baer, wife of the
special agent of the Almighty, is vast
ly interested in the problem of child
labor, and, like the good woman she
is, is deeply concerned because "chil-
dren, mere babies some of them, pass
your doors daily on their way to work,
when they should be going to school,"
This is unfortunate and we hope the
lady will speak to George about it and
see that the pernicious practice is
stopped. Possibly, however, George
does not see his particular bunch of
children on their way to work, partly
for the reason that he does not live
at the mines, and partly because he
is not out of bed at that hour. Still
1T will do no harm to call his attention
to the circumstance, for George is a
good husband and would not wantonly
hurt his wife's feelings Chicago

cations, including weak heart. She

to sudden fright She complained of
having nightmare and said she often
woke up in a state of terrible fright,
SO weak that she could not call for
help. One morning she was found
dead in bed with an expression of ab-
ject terror on her face. I have no
doubt that she died from fright pro-
duced by a nightmare.
persons subject to nightmare who
have weak hearts should avoid Sleep
ing on the back. They should lie on
the right side and have the right arm
extended so they will wake up if they

result of sleeping on the back or the

A Perfect Gentleman.

his mother; he cut his finger with

to him: George, why can't you be-

The Pigs.

r. c.. Hoffman: Be sure and give
the pigs plenty Of exercise, and as
soon as possible the little pigs should
be taught to eat. By providing little
pen wherein they can get cracked corn
and sweet milk, they will soon be
able to get. away with lots OF feed
and will transform it into bone and
flesh, thereby decreasing the drain on
the SOW. If the SOW does not lose in
flesh they should be allowed to suckle

Fiber in Feed Stuffs.

A communication from the New
York Experiment station at Geneva
says: The choice Of feeding stuffs to
supplement farm crops is q matter of
exceedingly great importance to the
da1ryman and stock keeper. The
time has passed when bran, middlings,
OIL meal, corn meal and the ground
grains of other cereals made up al
most the whole list, and when the
name given to feed was fair index
to its composition and feeling value.
Among the hundreds of feeds ingeni-
ously combined from the ground
grains, or containing portions of
these grains left as by-products in the
manufacture of malt and spirituous
liquors, of starch, sugar and glucose,
OF breakfast foods or of vegetable oils,
the feeder finds a wide range of puz-
zl1ng compounds. Led only by his
eye, touch or taste (helpful as these
are to the purchaser who is guided by
good understanding of principles) he
would find it exceedingly difficult to
make sure selection of the feeds best
suited to his needs. Oat hulls, corn
cobs, coffee hulls, cottonseed hulls and
other materials are very skillfully
used as adulterants, so that in some
feeds now for sale in this state the
percentage of fiber is so great that
nearly all the energy represented in
the food must be used to masticate the
material and pass it through the ami
mails body. OF corn and oat feeds on
the market at least 10 brands exam
ined by the station at Geneva con-
tanned from 10 to nearly 16 per cent
OF fiber; while mixture Of equal
parts Of corn and oats should contain
less than six per cent. Good oats
normally contain less than 10 per cent
OF fibre, while several oat feeds exam
ined contained from % to 29 per cent
and sold for from 500 to $50 or more
ton. Prices Of feeds of equal value
also vary remarkably in markets ly-
ing side by side. One dealer in New
York sells a certain brand for $50 a
ton, another dealer in the same city
asks $40. These are but a few illus
trations Of the impositions put upon
farmers by some manufacturers Or
dealers in feeds.
