An Ice Cream IdyI.

Gentle reader, didst thou ever order one
plate of ice cream with two spoons? Honest,
now, in the dear old days W hen you were young
and there was only one girl in all the world,
and she had a round face like the full moon
and as full of freckles as the skin of brook
:rout? Did you, now? Come, own up! 1t
was down in the little ice cream shop, the
only one in the village, and you were dread
fully angry when the lady who waited on
vou smiled. AZ YOU thought You would
have been glad to get along with one spoon
and take turns in Ticking, But you were too
bashful for that. Still, you used to share
Icks when you thought the smiling lady
was not looking, and love went with them,
flavorsome. What! You never did? You
really never did? Well then, son, you have
never known what Heaven on earth is: Your
education has been neglected.-N. Y. News

STRENGTH OF BIRDS.


The blood Of q bird Is several degrees
warmer than that Of human being
To man, such temperature as birds
normally possess would be a fever. but
the heat of a birds blood enables it tc
live much more intensely than we can.
Changes take place in the tissues and
brain more rapidly. Birds can eat and
assimilate from ten to thirty times as
much food, proportionately, as man can.
and they are thus enabled to do an
amount of work far beyond the relative
power of man, says Nature.
II a man could eat as much in proper
tion to his size as sparrow is able 10
consume, he would need whole sheep
for dinner, a couple of dozen fowls for
breakfast and, say, six turkeys for his
evening meal. A tree sparrow has oeen
known to eat 700 grass seeds In a day
and these grass seeds we're relatively tc
the birds size as big as an ordinary
lunch biscuit would be to full-groWr
man of twelve-stone weight.
A birds Strength is equally amazing
A white-tailed eagle, weighing between
II and IL pounds, and with a wing-spreao
of just over six feet, has been known
to pounce on a pig weighing AZ pounds
raise it to a height of 100 feet and ny
straight off with it, The bird had Gov
cred distance of fully half mile before
the pigs owner succeeded in shooting
the thief
The man who could stagger even {
hundred yards under the burden of fou1
other men of his own weight would be
a living miracle The feat of rising into
so thin a medium as the air, carrying
nearly four times its own weight, showed
the eagle to be something more thar
a feathered Sandow.
Birds can and do work far harder thar
human beings. A pair of house martins
when nesting, will feed their young OF
an average once in 20 seconds-that is

Next Years Layers.

Select now the pullets for winter
layers. If there are a great many
pullets that were hatched out, go into
the poultry house and sleect the larg-
est hatched Do not be tempted TO
keep many because they are beautiful,
if they are small, as such pullets will
not be of sufficient age to begin laying
before cold weather sets in. AS fowls,
old and young, are subject to the con-
ditions of heat and cold, much labor
and expense can be saved by retaining
only those that come into full plum
age and reach the adult stage before
winter. If pullet begins to lay be-
fore winter, she will then probably lay
right on through the winter; but should
she not begin in the fall, she will
probably defer such work until early
in the spring. Use heroic and prompt
measures, by culling out the flock and
getting rid of every pullet that has not
reached stage of growth that may en-
able it to give profit There is no
sentiment in the keeping of fowls. The
keeping of poultry should be business
matter.-Farm and Fireside.

HERE AND THERE.

-"Chickens seem to have a craving
for animal food when noting" says a
poultry journal. They also seem to
have similar craving at all other
times, except, perhaps, when their
crops can not hold any more.
-Dairying is unquestionably the
most clearly defined, the clearest cut,
the most investigated, the best under
stood of any branch of agriculture. It
is founded on the bed rock of scientific
facts crystalized into successful art.
NO Angora goats have been inn
ported into this country from their ma
tive land since 1881, for in that year
the sultan absolutely prohibited their
expectation. Later importations have
been from South Africa, and they were
very few.
The feed supply of the southwest
is now abundant, but One-half of this
great boon will be wasted. The feed
crops now made are capab BILE Of produc-
ing just double the plumber of pounds
of pork, beef, milk, ETC., that our peo-
pie will actually secure.
Good pasture is not only the best
feed for mich cows, but also the
cheapest. Perennial pasturage affords
the cheapest possible feed for cattle
of any kind, and during the season
when pasturage is at its best no grain
ration is needed.
The best way to save corn for feed
ing cattle is the silo method. This
keeps it in practically a green condi
ton until it is fed, and cattle are very
fond of it, winter and summer, and
there is less waste than in any other
way except by shredding.
NO matter what degree of accuracy
the government crop report for August
reached, nor how favorable weather
conditions may be from now On, a
shortage of corn is unavoidable.
The milch COW converts feed into
| human food with less waste than does
the beef steer This fact is attested
! by the markets as we'll as by science.
| For this reason older countries prac-
| show any people.
| 1T is highly probable that grain of
all kinds will reach record breaking
prices this year. High authorities In
the grain market confidently predict
dollar wheat at an early date. The
wheat crop is short and the quality
good. This will render cornering COM

Present Aspect OF the Cherokee Campaign.

for the negroes, and il the afiida-
wits appearing in the Mcconnell
report are true, the advisors and
counselors Of the Cherokee people
were traitors to their trusts and
caused the Cherokees, by this one
act, and for their own individual
gain. 10 lose about 81 ,oeo, Geo in
lands and moneys.
Frank J. Boudinot names both
the Downing chiefs as parties 70
this s126,0 900 transaction and also
w. w. Hastings, one Of our most
brainy men, who has held and
still holds a responsible position
for the Cherokee people and in
whom the chiefs have placed a
great deal Of confidence.
Boudinot was the trusted coun-
Gil OF the Cherokee Nation at
Washington before the Court Of
Claims and the United States
Court. His wife was with him
and in her testimony she shows
up the s12s,0OO steal in all Of it's
stigma and names the parties to
the tfant action.
II any OF the parties she named
has ever denied sharing IN the
$4,000 fee, the writer has never
seen the denial in print except the
statement made by S. H. Mayes
and he admits that the money
was wrongfulIy used.
BY this same compromise there
were about1, 900 fraudulent names
placed on the Cherokee rolls by
the Clifton Court and many citi.
zen's names were left off.

gain of half a million it is hard to
tell, but suspicion rests on some
Of the s126, 900 fellows-men well
soaked with corruption.
The very same men VINO advis-

then, the very same men
who shared in the s126, 900 and

troll him. Men who, if the truth
has been told, have robbed their
their neighbours, their friends
and their own children, and in
time their crime will grow greater.
1t Will ever be to them what
Banquo's ghost was to his muir
derers--it will never down. "Time
nor reason will" never mitigate
the CRIME committed by the trust
ed servants Of the people when
they willfully betray' their trusts
for a few psltry dollars.
Can we afford to trust w. c.
Rogers in the hands OF such ad-
visors7 W. c. Rogers, they say,
lie an honest man. We know that
Levi Qbokson is. In opposing

A LEADING QUESTION.
What has the Downing Party Done,
and What Can They Expect

In 1898 the Cherokees had in
the neighborhood Of 100000
acres OF laud, an invested fund
'6mounting to s3,0O0,000 drawing
kfivs per cent Interest," q very small,
u any, indebtedness, and a citizen
roll OF only about 28,000.
In 1898, when the Federal con.
1ress passed what is known az the
Curtis Act, there was left ai land
Sput Of the 10, 100000 aerss, less
lhan $1,000 acres, the roll Of
T. titizens had increased to nearly
30, 900 and the $1,000, 600 Of lnves-
ted funds had been squandered
Until nearly $1,000, 600 had to go
