opera has had solid career Of more
than a year, the piece having been in

AUTOMOBILES
Items Cleaned Here and There Over
the Country.

Record riding of A. J. Gilmore,
president of the Philadelphia Motor
cycle Club, and his Columbia motor
cycle was accomplished last Saturday,
when he journeyed from New York to
Philadelphia in little less than four
hours.
To show the endurance of the au-
tomobile, an operator in England re-
Gently travelled from Lands End to
John O'Groat's and back to London,
something like 1000 miles, without
stopping the motor Of his machine.
He had an assistant to take charge of
the machine at various times, and al
though the car had to halt a few
running.
10 encourage the manufacture Of
compact and light motor bicycles for
road use, the executive committee of
the Federation of American Motor
cyclists decided at its last meeting to
request the National Cycling Associa-
ton to accept only those records
made on motor bicycles that do not
exceed ITO pounds in weight. A
rule of this kind prevails in Europe
where records made on big freak
machines such as have supplied fast
time in this country are not recog-
nlZed.
After a seven months sojourn in
Australia, where he won more than
$4,000 In cycle racing, Ivory Lawson
the speedy member of the Columbia
team, has returned to New York, and
is now training at Vailsburg, with a
view of supplanting Kramer as the
champion this year. 1t will be re-
membered that last season the pair
were tied for honOrs until the last
meet of the grand circuit. Although
admitting Kramer's great speed,
Lawson is confident that this year
the New Jersey ad will have to take
second place.

How to Tan Sheep Pelts.

A writer in Practical Farmer gives
the following: The process is SINH
lar to that of tanning furs. Wash the
pelt in warm soapsuds till the wool
is cleansed thoroughly; rinse we'll and
soak for one day in a solution of alum
and salt, eight ounces of each in suf-
ficient warm water to cover the pelt
Drain we'll, stretch on a board and
when half dry sprinkle the flesh side
with equal parts pulverized alum and
saltpetre. Fold together and let it re-
main indoors for week, turning
twice a day to get the alum and salt
petre equally upon all portions of the
skin. When we'll dried rub we'll with
pumice stone, which will make the
hide very soft and white. The edges
may now be trimmed to suit the taste.
Pelts tanned in this way can be used
for laprObeS.

AGRICULTURAL BRIEFS.

One of the latest novelties is canned
Belgian hare.
Quails (partridges) are multiplying
so fast in some California vineyards
that they damage crops.
In one day recently there were re-
ceived at Chicago 41,905 head of cat
tie, being 5000 more than ever before
received in one day.
Good country roads are not only in
a sense distance annihilators, but they
enable the farmers to double the
wagon loads with no real increased la
Dor for the teams.
Farmers should study the displays
of farm implements and machinery at
the agricultural fairs. In these days
when it is so difficult to secure farm
labor it is we'll to be thoroughly post
ed on all labor-saving machines
The farmer has many enemies to
contend with. 1t is estimated that $780,
100000 year is lost by hog cholera,
and that $3O0,OOO,O0O worth of field
crops are annually destroyed by in
sects. Fall blowing destroys many of
the insect pests.

APPLYING THE MANURE.
Escape by Evaporation, Says
Canadian Expert.

According to James McFadyean,' an
experiment conducted at the Ottawa ex-
pertinent farm and covering period Of
years, indicated that an equal weight
of fresh stable manure and of we'll rot.
ted manure were of practically the same
value for application to all the principal
crops. Practically the same results have
thus far been obtained at that station.
Mr.. McFadyean says:
Its q great mistake to believe that
manure wastes to any extent when
spread upon the land. Unless there is
considerable fermentation, there will
very little of the valuable elements es-
cape by evaporation. do not recon-
mend too heavy an application atone
time. We seek to have it divided SO
that it will cover all the land every sec
ond year, If possible. If the manure is
reasonably short, so that we may have
it incorporated into the surface soil with
gang plow in the spring, and so about
the same depth as we wish to sow our
grain, it's indirect value to the growing
crop is greatest. Farmyard manure is
the most natural and perfect plant food
available, and it has indirect results that
no commercial fertilizer can give, be-
cause it adds to the soil SO much vegeta-
BILE matter, so much humus, by which all
clay and sandy soils especially are
greatly benefited, though not just yet
available as plant food. But whenever
there is a decaying of vegetable matter
there is always degree of heat formed
We see this very plainly in the manure
heap. Then let us have this heat
formed in the soil, that the growing
plants may derive some benefit from it..
and the soil will be made more mellow,
crumbly and porous, because of the heat
and moisture
