The most difficult feat in animal
training is to make a number of beasts
OF different species perform together
In this art Mr.. Carl HageIbeck, the IA
nous Hamburg naturalist, is supreme
He it was who first conceived the idea
of doing such thing, and to him is
due the credit of having brought be-
fore the public some of the finest and
most imposing spectacles of their kind
ever witnessed. To preparing these
for the public eye he devotes infinite
pains. He has to select animals which
have not only sufficient intelligence TO
perform as he wants, but a disposition
which will make any quarrelling i'm
probable. And to obtain this result
he had to do a great deal of wedding
out. For one group of Is animals he
bought and trained more than co be-
fore he could get those he wanted
Over As of his investment turned out
to be worthless for his special pur-
pose, and were got rid of as opportun
ity offered. The training of the beasts
was consequently a slow process,
lasting as it did four years. During
the whole of that time three men did
nothing else but attend on the ami
mails, and very frequently one or more
actually slept in the cage with the big
creatures, so as to intervene immedi-
ately if there was any fghting-a pre-
caution which forms an important fea-
ture of Mr.. Hagenbeck' system. Some
animals under training in his estab-
lishment are never left alone, attend
ants remaining with them night and
day, and as result they eventually be-
come peaceable and chummy. Chums.

the past, ana prevents improvement
Of the breeds. 1t is a fact we'll known
that there arc farmers who have per-
sistently refused to grade up their
fiocks by the use of males of the
large breeds, because 1t lessons the
foraging capacity and activity of mem
bers of the fock; and if improvement
was made at any time, in order to
avoid too close inbreeding, only the
Merino or Southdown was resorted
to, they being the smallest OF the i'm
proved breeds. With the attention Civ
en- principally to the growing of wool
the farmers have failed to take ad-
vantage of the profits that can be de-
rived from mutton. Those that have
not inspected the mutton breeds can
not realize the great improvement
that has been made in the size of sucn
sheep, and also in the quality of the
meat therefrom. No animal has been
brought to higher point of excel
lence than the sheep. Highly fed
lambs have been made to weigh 100
pounds Give weight) when three
months old. In the face of these facts
it is but surprising that those who
fail to improve with the OXfords,
Shropshires or Hampshires find it i'm
possible to derive profit. The large
breeds of sheep cannot be turned out
on an inferior pasture to be compelled
to find their food They must, like the
steer, be made to produce as much as
possible in the shortest period of time.
They will not grow rapidly and fatten
readily if they are to forage over the
whole farm and be forced to work for
all they get. The foraging system will
answer for the Merino, but the heavy
breeds do not thrive so well in large
numbers. Only the best of pastures,
the fiocks divided, and a mess of grain
at night, will force them. True, it re-
quires more labor and care, but it
pays, and as the matter of sheep rails
ing is one for profit, the labor will al
ways be paid for before the estimate
of profit can be made. If more money
can be made on one good sheep than
from three inferior ones 1t is a waste
of time and pasture to keep the ma
tives. The greatest profit is derived
from the mutton breeds, and the best
pastures on the farm can be given up
to them with profit.-PLiladelph

That the feed has its effects upon
the beef is well illustrated by the COM
munication of an Illinois feeder to the
Indiana Farmer. He said that when
at the Chicago stock yards with a load
OF steers he met another man who had
also a carload that looked as fine as
his. They both sold to packers the
same morning. The writer sold his at
So per hundredweight, and the other
received only $3.50. Both lots were
grade Shorthorns, little more than
2 years old. He had fed his on corn,
stover, clover hay, cowpea hay and
wheat bran. The other had fed only
corn and stover. The expert buyer said
the other mans cattle were very good,
but they were deficient in the thick
loin beef which his had, which made
bis beef more valuable In this case
it was not half in the breed and half
in the feed" but all in the feed. The
cowpea hay, clover and wheat bran
were richer in protein than corn and
stover.-The Cultivator.

PORTO RlCAN CHOCOLATE.


How the Bon Bons of Mayaguez Differ
from Those of Other Countries.
The new territory, Porto Rico, is
beginning to put itself in evidence
here and there in the big American
cities. Its fruits, cigars, cigarettes,
sugar and coffee are now familiar
sights, and in the past three months
the chocolates and bon bons of Maya
guez have appeared at one or two
stores in the Broadway district.
The proprietor of one of these, a
bright-eyed and swaIthy West Indian.
said 1T will take some time for
Americans to appreciate the Porto Ri
CO chocolate, for the simple reason
that it is the very best in the world.
For 200 years it has been cultivated
in Mayaguez and the surrounding dis
trict where the manufacture has been
developed into fine art, as we'll as an
industry. For more tnan century the
bon bons and corrections of Mayag'ea
have been standard luxuries among
the wealthy classes of Cuba, Spain and
southern France. So large has been
the demand that at times the supply of
the bean ran short and the Portori-
quensen manufacturer has been obliged
to import from Venezuela. They are
so proud of their goods that when this
happens they label the wares second
quality, or else give it no label at all.
The finished chocolate differs in many
respects from that in general use in
the American cities. More care is be-
slowed in selecting the beans and III
the preliminary treatment. There are
no quick systems such as the Dutch
method or the acid method or the
treatment by alkalies. The finished
chocolate is purer and contains almost
no sugar. 1t never is diluted or blend
ed with starch, arrowroot, tapioca. or
other amylaceous materials, much less
with burnt umber, burnt sienna and
other clays which are SO common an
adulteOnt in Europe and America.
when made into bon bons the prac-
tice runs more along Partisan than
New York lines. Every ingredient en-
ployed is ground and bolted until it is
a powder as fine as flour, while soft
substances are rolled or milled until
they are as smooth as cream. The
manufacturers give a greater variety
in combination flavors. In this city
the average chocolate is favored with
vanilla and the cheap qualities with
tonka bean. In Mayaguez there are
many standard flavors, and in addi-
ton, any patron can have confectiors
favored according to his own formula
or taste. New York Post

Mendall's law is an illustration Of
of the strange neglect of a discovery
by the official scientists when it is
made by a layman and not published
in the regular way, says American
Medicine. In this instance the 'lay-
man" was a priest-a German monk
who published his excellent scientific
thesis in an obscure German village
in 1865. Within the last two years tle
law has been rediscovered practical
ly independently and simultaneously
by four biologic investigators, one of
whom, Correns, of Germany, discov-
cred Mendall's thesis. Briefly stated
the law Is that first cross will result
in offspring resembling one or the 9th
er parent, but possessing in an unde-
veloped form, termed by German
scientists "recessive," the attributes
of the other. The second cross will re-
suit in fixed types possessing, respec-
lively, the characteristics of one pa
rent, of both parents. and of both pa
rents in varying degrees. If true, the
law, it will be seen, will have tro,
mendous effect upon the hybrdiZation
of plants and the breeding of animals.

What to Do with Unripe squashes.

The question which confronts the
farmer is, what to do with the unripe
specimens. Shall he feeu them to his
COWS or store them. Though cows
like them at any stage of growth, there
can be but little food value either for
milk or beef making in half-grown
squash, though have always fed such,
rather than throw them on the manure
pile. The squashes which are full
grown, but not yet ripe, make another
class, which for best economy should
neither be left in the field at the mercy
of frosts, thrown on the manure pile,
nor fed to the cows. Under proper
treatment these can be ripened with a
loss OF but small percent of their
number, and keeping well after ripen-
ing, can be put on the market late in
the season, when they often bring n
higher price than the field-ripened ones
known by the gathering in of the stem
where it joins the flesh. When fully
ripe the stem shrinks and divides, as
suming woody appearance. When
not full grown both the outside and
the stem have shiny, vanished look.
When full grown they lose this ap-
pearance and become dull in color.
Now if these full grown ones are treat
ed as the ripe ones, piled in with them
in the bins of the squash house. they
will rot soon after the low tempera-
ture without compels the closing of
the windows.
IT, instead, they are carried into the
upper story of the building and stored
in the warmest place, especially just
over where the funnel of the stove
runs, my experience mas been that they
keep well there and gradually matur.
Though there may not be a sound seed
among them when gathered, such
change toward maturity takes place
that the seed of nearly all of them
will grow. plump out and fully mature
with as good Vitality as is possessed
with seed taken from squashes that
fully matured in the field.-American

Snakelike Lizard.

A case in the reptile house of the
geological Gardens of London, which
contains several curious sand sllinks,
has lust become the home of a curious
relative of these queer, four-footed liz
ards. Living specimens of this spe-
cies are rarely brought to the temper

and Tasmania, and is called the limb
less or scale footed lizard (pygopus
lepidopodusl 1t is about 20 inches
long, with shining scale OF sober brok-

pa'e, with a few dark dots and longi-
ludinal bars near the head. The rlIji-
ments OF the limbs are entirely hidden
under the skin, so that this serpenti-
form lizard is as easily mistaken for
srake as its English cousin, the blind
wrrm but it's mild expressioned head
is furnished with well formed eyelids,
and the tongue is short and thick, and
capa0le OF a very slight extension.
The lizard owes its name to the fact
that where the body merges into the
tail is a lair of narrow scoly flaps,
pressed tightly to the sides when the
reptile is at rest, but used to propel ii
when in motion. These flaps cover
rudimentary toe bones.-Philadelph
