SMOKE NUISANCE.
People in the Vicinity of Scovill's
Ear4n~w Ara prn4nS4in6

T.
A small smoke stack placed on part
of the scovill Mfg Cos plant near
Baldwin street, has stirred up hor
nets nest among residents of that dis
trict and unless the nuisance is remov-
ed the city is likely to be asked to
step in. The binding smoke that
gushes from this chimney prevents
people from opening their windows
and such a thing as hanging out white
linen is not thought Of One of the
neighbors told a representative of this
paper that if this business should be
continued things will soon be worse
at Scoyill's bridge and vicinity than
they have for some years past OH
Bridge street, where you can write
your name in the accumulated SCOT on
some of the buildings, all caused by
smoke from the shop. He thought the
trouble could be remedied by higher
smoke stacks, but added that because
nearly everybody about the place
works in that factory nobody cared to
protest. This is all nonsense. The
management of the Scoyill Mfg Co is
not going to discharge anybody who
might call upon them in connection
with such question and folks wao
think SO do them a great injustice. If.
those who feel aggrieyed call upon Mr.
Goss it is safe to predict that they will
get fair hearing and whether it
amounts to anything or not for them
so far as getting out of the smoke
goes, there is no likelihood whatever
that they will be discriminated
against on that account if they happen
to be employees of the company.

ADMIRAL BYNa.
A Brave Sailor who Paid the Penal.

Two years after Voltaire left Prussia
George Keith came to visit him in Swift.
zerland to plead the cause of an Eng
lish friend, Byng. The story of Byng
is familiar to all his countrymen. The
French had beaten the English ON tho
sea, and, mad with disappointed rage,
the laundering ministry Of England
turned on their luckless instrument,
Byng. Voltaire was the lifelong friend
Of Richelieu, the conqueror. But he
was, too, the man of whom it was
said that ''for twenty years the redress
Of judicial wrong" hung entirely on his
pen. On Dec. 20, 1855, he wrote to
Richelieu telling Byng's story, and that
vainglorious person replied generously
enough in an open letter, wherein he
stated that had Byng continued the
fight the English feet must have been
totally destroyed and that the admiraps
misfortune came not from cowardice or
inefficiency, but from the hand Of God
and the valor Of the French.
Yoltaire wrote to Byng, sending Rich
elieu's letter. but he could not save the
victim. Byng paid the penalty Of other
mems folly. To Voltaire he left a
grateful message and copy of his de-
Tense, and in "Candide," with that ban
tering malice which is his alone, Vol
taire sharply satirizes the scene of the
admirars execution
"And why should this admiral be put
to death?"
Because he has not killed enough
people. He fought with French adj
miral and is not considered to have
been sufficiently near to him"
But" said Candide, "the French adj
miral was just as far away from the
English"
''That is certainly true" was the an
swer. But in this country it is salu-
tary to put an admiral to death now
and then pour encourager les autres.''-

zuNl FAMILY LIFE.

a VAAA8e LOOKS Like q huge Hive OF
Clay ON Sandy Knoll.
The little half civilized children of
Zuni so aroused our curiosity that we
drove through forty miles Of sand and
sagebrush, from the railroad at Fort
Wingate, to pay them visit. AS the
Indians do not provide for travellers we
took our hotel with us-tents, beds and
food-and camped just outside their
village. The village looks like huge
beehive made Of clay and stuck fast
to the top of a sandy knoll. The hive
is filled with mass of cells-300 single
rooms, placed side by side and piled in
rows one ON top Of another.
In each Of these rooms lives Zun1
family. There are no inside stairways
leading from story to story, but if the
boys and girls living in one row wish
to pay visit to house above them
they must go outdoors and climb lad
der. On the slope between the village
and the Zuni river are a number Of
small vegetable gardens, each one in
closed by mud wall. Zuni has no
inns, no shops, no saloons, not even
proper streets, but only narrow alleys
that thread their way through the
strange town. AS we walked through
the village all the world came out to
see us. Girls and boys clustered on
the roofs or sat on the ovens-queer
little cones Of mud which seem to grow
up out Of the house tops-while ia
theirs, mothers and babies peered out
from dark doorways to stare at the
visitors. When we had finished our
tour Of the roofs and alleys we were

POINTS ON FEEDING

Canadian experimenters have found
that barley is the best grain for finish
ing the prime bacon hog, says National
Stockman. AS long as bacon hogs are
not selling as high as fat hogs in this
country, however, our feeders will
stick to corn. It's good enough for the
market hog, and it makes him good
enough for the market.
Food Value of Tankage.
Tanlage has been used in feeding
tests at number Of the experiment
stations with good results, says Breed
er's Gazette. At the Iowa station the
profit per bushel of corn fed to fatten-
ing hogs was materially advanced by
the use Of tankage. Hog raisers who
have used it as rule speak favorably,
Of the results, though there are sonic
exceptions.
Feed For Work Horses.
We should always remember, says
Professor w. A. Henry of the Wis
consin Agricultural college, that oats
form the ideal grain food for the horse.
The kernel proper contains large
amount Of nutriment. The bulls sur
rounding the grain give the material
bulk, tending thereby to prevent over
feeding, and at the same time render
ing the food light and easy Of digestion
by the fluids of the stomach. Where
horses are hard worked one should de-
part from the oat ration with caution
and learn by experience what can be
accomplished.
Ration For Lambs.
Good clover, hay, corn and oat ra-
lions, warm and dry quarters, salt,
with water at hand, and regular feed
ing are about all healthy lambs need
for best results, unless daily ration
of roots is added, which will help to
keep them well.-American Agricul-
turist
Oilmeal as Hog Feed.
Oilmeal is good hog feed and a
cheaper protein food than bran or mid
dlings at current prices. The same may
be said of gluten meal, which ranks
very high in pig feeding.
