TALL MEN ARE FREAKS.
Learned Authority Upon Giants Say :,
They Have Small Brain
Cavities.

Prof. Cunningham, who has been,
appointed to succeed and serve under
his old teacher, Sir William Turner.
in the chair of anatomy in the Uni
versity of Edinburgh, is the greatest
authority upon giants, says London
paper. He is at present occupied in
celebrating the proofs of his belief
that a. giant is morbid phenomenon.
A man or woman who is more than
six feet five inches, or, at the outside,
six feet six inches, cannot be regard
ed as merely abnormal, the professor
thinks. lie has shown that the men
tai characteristics of giants easy
good nature, sloth and poor intelli-
gence-are those shown by victims
of a rare disease of overgrowth
called acromegaly. This is due to en-
largement of an appendage of the
brain, and Prof. Cunningham has
personally examined every giant
skeleton in the British and continent
tai museums, and found that the lit
tie cavity in the skull corresponding
to this part of the brain is enlarged
in all of them.

AMERICAN SHOE INDUSTRY.
The Output of Footwear in This
Country Is Something
Enormous.

The books, shoes and slippers made
by machinery in the United States
every year would provide a pair of
some kind for more than one-seventh
of the inhabitants of the earth. If
they were arranged by pairs, heels
and toes touching, they would make
belt that would encircle the globe.
with enough to spare to stretch
across the North American continent
from New York to San Francisco.
Placed singly, heel and toe, they
would go around the world two and
a half times. If placed on the tracks
of our great trunk railroads. the
rights on one rail and the lefts on
the other, they would cover the irons
from the Atlantic to the Pacific of all
the continental lines that now cross
our country, says a shoe journal.
The hides and skins used to form
this immense quantity of shoes come
from all over the world, but chiefly
from the East Indies. South America
and Europe, and if they were sewed
together in one sheet they would
make a tent large enough to cover
Manhattan island.

We sell the Empire Cream Sep
aratOr.
We sold a large number of these
machines last year and we have yet
to hear complaint from any of our
customers. If you expect to buy a
separator it will pay you to get the
best machine, which is the Empire.
Ask any one that owns an Empire,
what he thinks of it. Your neigh
Dor, who owns an Empire and is
we'll pleased with it, is the best ad-
vertisement for the machine. It
can be shown very easily that the
Empire is the most practical ma
chine, being simple in construction,
easy of operation and easy to clean.
Look at our machine before you
invest.

A newspaper published at Blago-

states that, as dueling pistols cannot
be obtained in Manchuria, Russian
officers at Zizikar have invented a
novel substitute. The principals in
a duel draw lots, and the loser is
obliged to take the next train on
the Manchurian railroad from Zfziilar
to Charbin and then return. If he

New EngIand's Cucumber King.

The dollhouse cucumber industry of
Leominster will be brought to a close
for the season this week, and the
many glasshouse men of Leominister
will count up their profits. George
M. Kendall will again protect his
title of cucumber king of New Eng
land, If not of the United States, and
when the season ends he will have
sold close to $4,000 worth, says the
Worcester Telegram. The indoor
cucumber business of Leominster dur
ing the winter. The business is car.
ried on by 20 men in Leominster when
the mercury is down below freezing
point and the price of cakes is up in
the air There are 300 lineal feet Of
these greenhouses in the town. The
width of the smaller ones is but %
feet Mr. Kendall has one house that
is $50 feet long, and so feet wide. al!
under the one roof. When the sea.
son ends Mr.. Kendall says that he will
have sold 1000 bushels of cucumbers
If not more. The price Of cucumbers
has been as high as s13 bushel, and
they have dropped as low as $3.50.
There are in Leominster besides Mr..
Kendall's houses, that have been cul-
tivated this winter, 1900 lineal feet
of houses. Mr.. Kendall and other
growers estimate that these houses
yield one bushel and a half Of cucum-
bers to the running foot, If they are
only about 20 feet wide. This would
make the yield of the Leominster
growers outside of Mr.. Kendall, some
thing like 1000 bushels. Mr.. Kendall
has raised nearly as many as all of
the others together.

Trouble With Ropy Milk.

The stringy or ropy condition of
milk is not very common, but it does
occasionally occur. 1t has been in
vestigated by psychologists, and
they have found it to be caused by a
germ This has been isolated and
cultures of it have been made, says
the Country Gentleman. 1t is found
that when milk is inoculated with
these cultures that the stringy or
ropy condition may be produced in any
milk. This then is proof of the cause
of the difficulty. Germs of this kind
are not common, but they occasional
ly get into milk from some source and
make it unattractiye for family con-
sumption. The best way to overcome
this trouble is to carefully wash the
cows udder and brush her legs after
ward, drying both with a clean towel;
then the mixer should wash his
hands, thoroughly steam the pail into
which he milks, and after throwing
away the first quantity of milk drawn,
milk the COW with dry hands into this
clean pail. The milk should be pro-
tected as carefully as possible from
dust and then strained into the cans in
which it is to be transported or in
which it is set for cream rising, The
strainer cloth, carrying cans and sep
arator, If one is used, should be given
an extra washing and scalding in order
to destroy any Of these germs which
have been the cause of the ropy milk.
There is no doubt that this trouble
may be overcome in this way, and the
success one has in doing it will de-
pend entirely on how carefully he pro-
tects the milk from the germs which
must get into the milk after 1t is
drawn from the COW.
Spraying to Prevent Potato Rot.
There are various causes for the rot
ting of potatoes. The common one
