Indian Bead work Revived,

The Catholic Indian association of
Canada is making arrangements to re-
vive the bead industry among the
Caughnawaga Indians. says the New
York Tribune. The women will be
taught to adapt their ancient skill,
which they are in great danger of los
ing. to modern USES. such as the max
ing of belts. purses. cardcases, ETC..
and it is believed that their handicraft
will find a ready sale. The Caughna-
wagas are a peculiarly interesting peo-
history as the praying Indians" Their
lives We're compared at that time to
those of the primitive Christians. and
among them lived the famous Indian
saint kateri T~ekakwitha.

Why Do We Plowi

Some one has said that after we
know the why it is easy to determine
the when and how. therefore we might
ask. Why do we pillow? says L. w.
Lightly. To make a seed bed for the
lex crop would be the general reply.
but there are a number of specific rea-
sons. To turn under manure trash or
undesirable plant or sod. If a field is
badly infested with a perennial weed,
setting the earth up on edge, covering
the top and exposing the roots often
work wonders in cleaning up foul land.
Then we pillow to regulate the
warmth. air and moisture of the soil,
to deepen the soil or seed bed, to pull
veriZe the soil. If a pillow is properly
made. it will not only turn the furrow
slice. but will do considerable pulver-
izing. This is hardly essential in fall
blowing. Only by taking all these rea-
sons into consideration and possibly
minor local conditions can we deter
mine in%telligently when and how to
pillow, Flowing is n of the most
tedious and expensive operations on
the farm and is worthy of our careful
thought.

Potato Crop and Prices.

While there is considerable complaint
in parts of New York and Vermont as
to the condition of the potato crop with
advanced prices, yet reference to the
government crop report shows a gener-
al yield throughout the country above
the average. All the large potato grow
ing states except New York and Michi-
gan report a yield per acre considera-
bly, above their ten year averages. This
years average yield per acre is 95.4
bushels as against only 65.5 bushels in
1901 and SO.S bushels in 1900. Though
potatoes may be scarce and high in
some localities. yet the heavy crop
throughout the country and the mod
ern transportation facilities will pre-
e. any marked general advance for
the present.-American Cultivator.

Amusing Anecdotes of the Famous
Texas R%acOn.eur.
One Of the best of the late Colonel
Tom Ochiltree's stories was on him
self. and he enjoyed it as much as did
this thousands Of. friends to whom he
told it, says the New York Commercial
Advertiser. While the colonel was a
representative in congress from the
state Of Texas and was returning home
from Washington he observed a large
crowd at the station when his train
stopped. At once he stepped out on
the platform and began thus:
"Gentlemen, l thank you for this
welcome home"-
"Welcome! Thunderr' a constituent
interrupted. Henry Bacon has just,
committed suicide in the station"
There is another story of an inter
rupted speech that Colonel Ochiltree
used to tell on himself sometimes. It
happened when he was a guest of the
Glover club in Philadelphia. Colonel
Ochiltree arose at the proper post
prandial moment and launched forth as
follows:
Gentlemen, l an pleased
"What a liar you are, Toni" shouted
a man in a distant corner.
Colonel Ochiltree paused and looked
panied.
Don't stop, colonel" shouted anoth-
er man. go ahead and tell another
whopper."
The readiness of the %colonel's wit is
well illustrated by the following anec-
dote:
"Is it really true, Colonel Ochiltree,
as people say, that you are the greatest
liar in the world?" Mrs. George Alfred
Townsend asked once.
The colonel was not disarmed by this
somewhat audacious sally. but replied
instantly:
"No, madam. There are three great
est liars in the world. am one of
them. and your husband is the other
two"

A New Use For an Automobile.

In Santa Rosa a new use has been
found for an {: tomobile. says the San
Francisco Chronicle. Alex Schelling,
proprietor of a foundry and machine
shop, al compelled to use his lathe
all day a short time ago. as his gas
engine was dismembered and undergo
ing repairs. The work was in great
haste. and the engine could not be re-
paired for several days. SO Schelling
brought in his automobile. choked the
wheels with blocks of wood, detached
the endless chain which propels the
wheels and started the machinery to
going. A belt was run from the auto
mobile to an overhead shaft. Tie au-
tomobile was kept running constantly
during the day. 1t has a six horsepow-
er engine in it, which is capable Of
pulling all the machinery in a first
class machine shop.

Eggs In Winter.

At a New York state farmers insti-
tute the reader of an essay IN poultry
gave his method of feeding to get eggs
in winter. Take one part of corn and
two parts of oats and have them
ground together quite fine. To 200
pounds of this add 100 pounds Of
ground wheat or of bran and mid
dlings. To tel quarts of this mixture
add one quart of animal meal and
meisten with skimmilk if you have it.
Feed this in the morning in V shaped
troughs. giving as much as they will
eat in fifteen minutes, and gather up
what is left at that time. At noon
give green feed Of cabbage, beets or
turnips cut up. An hour later give
light feed of small grains scattered in
char or straw. The night feed. at $3.50
p. M. is equal parts of wheat. oats and
corn scattered in the straw. SO that
they will work until dark to find 1t.
Keep oyster shells where they a pick
them when they please. Have dust
bath of road dust or coal ashes for
them and provide plenty of fresh wa
ter. Use Kerosene oil on the roosts
and insect powder in the nests. With
early Matched pullets or young hens
through their mott this gives eggs all
winter.

FINE WINDOW FOR sKIBo.
Carnegie's Own History and That Of
Castle Pictured In Glass.

Carneeie's Own History and That Of
Castle Pictured In Glass.
A huge stained glass window for
Skibo castle, Andrew Carnegie's place
in Scotland. has just been finished at
the Royal College of Art. says a Lon
don cable dispatch to the New York
Evening Journal. 1t is composed of
fifty lights. In the center is a figure
of st. Gilbert, who made Skibo his pal
ace in the year 1895. To the left rep
resents Sigurd and the date 946, when
he built the castle. To the right ap-
pears the Duke of Montrose, who was
entrapped in the castle in 1850.
The figures are f1anked by views of
Skibo castle and the cottage in which
Mr.. Carnegie was born. Above the cot
tage is a picture Of a sailing vessel in
which Mr.. Carnegie. as a penniless
boy, took passage to the United States,
while below is a representationsof the
great liner which brought him back to
Scotland after he had made his vast
fortune. The window was designed
by Professor Gerald MORA.

To Harness the Colorado.

Arizona engineers regard the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado as %affording
one of the greatest fields in existence
for the development of electricity from
water power, says Youths Companion.
In addition to the immense power Of
the Colorado itself large stores of en-
ergy are available in the smaller
streams that leap into the vast chasm.
The plan by which the power of the
main stream will, it is now thought,
eventually be utilized is that of pick
ing up the fall of the river by means
of tunnels. At a point about seventy
miles north of Williams it is said that
a fall of 5000 feet can be found in a
distance but little exceeding a mile.

HINTS O

lave q HuFal Phone Service.
The farmers in the vicinity Of Grand
Rapids, Wood county. Wis.,. wanted
cheaper telephone service. SO banded
together and formed Il company for
themselves. says an exchange. An
Earnest, reputable citizen acted as
leader. aided by a rambler of reliable
assistants. They got out articles Of in
corporation and a city franchise on the
mutual plan, then divided the work
and procured rental contracts. When
a sufficient number of telephone users
had been obtained as subscribers to
subscribers was called and the organ
ization completed by electing n board
of directors.
Then the projectors tried to get their
machines into the leading business
places. The telegraph company ut first
refused to put the new phone into it's
Office. but as soon as it realized the
old company was defeated it wanted
the new phone. The monthly rentals
lever exceed 1926 for business and
$1.25 for residence phones. less than
half the prices charged in most places
by the old monopoly. Most thrifty
farm homes in that section are united
by the new farmers telephone line.

cowpea. with Corn.

tivator says he planted an early varie-
ty Of cowpeas with his corr and again
planted peas when laying by, so that
all through the growing season the
ground was shaded by the peas. The
result was the heaviest yield Of the
largest ears of corn he had ever raised.
This brings up a rather new question,
Do cowpeas furnish nitrogen to the
orr growing with them? If this cor
respondent states facts, there is a
strong presumption that they do and
that the shading of the ground also
helps the corn. This is a matter that
should be subjected to Il systematic
test.

A Favorable Fall.

Excepting for accident or sickness
there has been but little excuse this
fall for farmers not getting their work
in excellent shape. says Stockman and
Farmer. The weather in most sections
has been all that could be asked for.
Frost injured but few crops. While it
has been too dry in some, places for
best results in seeding. as a whole the
wheat crop has n fair start for winter.
The weather has been ideal for the
feeder. and live stock has had a good
opportunity to make a good showing
for the grain consumed.

Listen to the Mocxtns Bird.

The story told by the late Septimus
Winner of how he drew the inspira-
ton for his famous songs, Listen to
the Mocking Bird" and "What Is Home
Without a Mother?" is touching, says
the Pittsburg Post. A mother was
wont to stand on a piazza holding her
babe. "in the mild September" to hear
the knocking bird singing far and
wide" Years afterward he saw the
child standing OH the piazza scarcely
realizing that her mother lay dead.
From the one incident came the inspi-
ration of the popular melodies that
have not yet been relegated into obliv-
ion by "Come Back. Bill Bailey" and
his relatives innumerable.
