Sapphire Fields in Montana.

Prof, Elrod, of the University of Mon
tana, gives a striking description of the
treasure that his state possesses in sap
phires. The only systematic mining for
these precious stones in the United
States is done in Montana The annual
output amounts to 100000 or 100000
carats, including the stones that are
suitable for cutting as gems and those
that are only useful mechanical pur-
poses. 1t is said the lapidaries in Helena
do finer work than is done on the stones
that are sent to London to be cut. Per-
haps somebody will suggest that Mon
tana should be called the gem state"
in view of the fact that her output of pre-
cious stones exceeds the production in
that line of all the rest Of the United
States. -.-.,---....------..-----------

THEORIES ABOUT THE SUN
There Is No Immediate Danger That
the Great Orb of Light viii
Burn Itself Out.

The current theories concerning the
sun and the planets are that the sun was
once vastly hotter than it is now, and
that for long period it has been slowly
but steadily cooling. The doctrine is
built on the notion that the sun is mass
of fire in progress of intense and fierce
combustion, and that, like any other
fire, unless its fuel is replenished, it
must burn out and become eXtinguished.
Some astronomers teach that the sun
is supplied with fuel by vast quantities
of comets and meteorS that are shoveled
into it by some process of nature, but
other astronomers like Sir Robert Hall
reject the possibility of any such sys-
tematic supply of fuel, and they believe
that the sun as it burns out shrinks in
size at the rate of 220 feet of its diane
ter in a year AS the mass of the sun is
something like $50, 600 miles in diameter,
it is calculated still to last for good long
time, but there is something extremely
melancholy and saddening in the idea
that our grand luminary will one day
burn out with a spasmodic CLEAN and
Whit of ill-smelling smoke like the snuff
of a candle.
1t is with great satisfaction that we
are allowed to believe in the possibility
| that the sun is made of radium, and that
it can continue to give off heat and light
for an inconceivable lapse of ages with
out being in the least diminished either
| in size or capacity to warm and illum-
! mate us. The idea that it is not losing
900 feet of it's diameter yearly is particu-
| larly consoling.
There is another suggestion which
would enable our solar system to con-
tinue its operations without either suf-
fering an instantaneous confiagration
or being consumed by slow combustion,
and this is that the sun and various
! bodies which revolve around it consti-
tute an electric dynamo and an incan-
descent lamp on such scale as could be
designed and created by combined om-
niscience and omnipotence, to go on it's
benefcent course forever. Such a notion
meets only the contempt of science,
which insists upon the existence OF
actual fire in the sun, that must sooner
or later burn itself out to complete ex-
tinguishment. Until, however, astron-
omers like Prof Langley shall make a
flying machine without balloon attach
ment that will enable human beings to
fly, their vagaries concerning the play
ing out of the sun may we'll be neglected
by all except full-hedged scientists.

ESSA
cARBoLlc ACID ANTIDoTE.
Turpentine Has Been Found to Be Ef-
fective and Useful in Several
Recent Cases.

A remarkable discovery has appar-
emily been made by Dublin veterin-
airy surgeon named Allen respecting an
antidote for carbolic acid poisoning.
Some time ago his attention was
drawn to two horses which were evil
IDENTIFY suffering from poisoning. On
examining one he noticed that mucous
surface Of the mouth was blanched
and that the animal was staggering
There was general twitching of the
muscles, the eyes were staring, and
the animal was rapidly assuming a
comatose condition. Mr.. Allen asked
for some oil, linseed for preference, If,
not, any kind of oil that was handy.
Some was brought, and about two
wine glassfuls administered to one of
the animals, the effect being, to quote
the words of Mr. Allen, miraculous.
For the first time he then noticed that
the "oil" which had been given to the
horse was the ordinary turpentine of
commerce. So satisfied was he with
the result that he gave the second
horse a dose, although at that time
the animal was unconscious. In about
ten minutes it recovered, and both
horses were at work the next day, as if
nothing had happened.
Not long after this, by a peculiar
coincidence, Mr.. Allen was asked to
look at a blacksmith, who, after drink
ing n glass of stout, had become very
i'll. In the forge the veterinary found
the smith in condition of coma, c
strong smell of carbolic acid pervading
the premises. Ultimately he discovered
that the man had drunk out of the
wrong vessel, and imbibed a solution
of the acid instead of the stout. A doc
tor was at once sent for, but in the
meantime Mr.. Allen administered a
dose of turpentine that happened to be
on the premises, and the man not only
quickly recovered, but resumed his
work within an hour.
Turpentine as an antidote in similar
cases has been previously unknown,
and a representative of the Daily News
recently sought out an expert with a
view of getting a medical opinion upon
a matter of so much Importance. THE
symptoms in the case you mention,
he said "are distinctly those of car
bolic acid poisoning, and so successful
does the treatment appear to have
been that further experiments in the
same direction are well worth trying
If subsequent experiments confirms
the oil of turpentine treatment, then
on every packet or bottle containing
carbolic acid should be printed this
simple antidote. London News.

RATION FOR WORK HORSES
A Combination of Oats and Corn
Makes a Wholesome and Most
Economical Feed.

We should always remember that
oats form the ideal grain food for the
horse, writes Prof w. A. Henry, of
the Wisconsin college of agriculture.
The kernel proper contains large
amount of nutriment. The hulls 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 to diges'
ton by the fluids of the stomach.
Where horses are hard worked one
should depart from the oat ration with
caution, and learn by experience what
can be accomplished The farmer
might well try bran and gluten feed
as partial substitutes for oats. Re-
member that bran is light and par
TALLY inert, so that it may take the
place of small portion of the hay
formerly consumed. On the other
hand, it furnishes to the horse proba-
bly, three-fifths or three-fourths as
much nutriment as the same weight of
cats. In using gluten feed, remem-
Der that 1t Is considerably higher in
protein than oats and almost or quite
as rich as the carbohydrates. In the
trial reduce the cat allowance one
third and substitute mixture of bran
and gluten feed equal parts by weight.
Remember too, that corn can al
ways be fed to horses with satisfac-
ton. There is a limit, however, to
its use, and in such cases as these the
supply should not be large For one
feed each day allow a couple of pounds
of corn in substitution for the same
of oats. Remember that corn causes
horses to sweat easily if fed in large
quantities. 1t is better winter than
summer food. Corn is a strong, hearty
| food and is much appreciated by hard
worked horses, because it does furnish
so much energy. In the southern
part of the corn belt horses live al
most wholly upon corn. Farther north
where oats are the main crop they
subsist almost entirely on the latter
grain. A combination of the two vii,
usually prove more economical and
better than to feed either SO exclusive

HOGS Thrive on skim-Milk.

The testimony on the value of skim
milk for hogs as a food is convincing.
Hogs when fed milk and grain re-
quired much less dry matter to make
a pound of gain than hogs fed on milk
alone. The average experiments show
100 pounds of milk to be equal TO
about "a pounds of grain. In Colora-
do, experiments showed that hogs fed
on milk and grain gained more than
twice as much per day and required
but little more than half as much dry
matter to each pound of gain as did
the hogs fed il grain alone Not only
did the hogs fed on milk and grain
gain more rapidly, but they grew lar
ger and were in much better condi-
ton.

searchlight recently installed in the
Heligoland lighthouse. The search
light under notice is fitted with an Iris
shutter. 1t has diameter of six feet
six inches, and was adopted in order
to make the protector light-tight at
any moment desired; it is operated in
much the same way as shutter IN
modern cameras. The leaves of the
shutter slide within fixed diaphragm
located in the axis of the ray of light.
The whole device is electrically con-
trolled by two levers. One of these
controls the motor mounted in the
base of the searchlight, which operates
the protector in a vertical direction
through a train of gears, the other
starts or stops the electrical motor
which controls the horizontal move
ment of the beam of light.

fasten another pulley to ring in hay

ring, after it has been closed, and then
through pulley at C, then down through
pulley at h, which is on fork, then
through pulley at a, then through pull
ley at d, which is down on barn floor.
All that is necessary to change the fork
so as to drop hay in either NOW is to
unite rope from fork and tie opposite end
there. This method saves one the cost
of track and car, and will pull almost
directly straight upwards until the fork
full of hay gets pretty we'll up, then will
travel over now Those who have hay
to stack can use this plan by using two
tail posts, or one if stack is near tree
which can be used toAfasten one pulley

can drive load of hay between post and
stack. This rigging will not take any
more rope than track and car, and is
very convenient in small barns.-C. o.

Hints for Horse Breeders.

1t is mistake to breed from mares
that are faulty in wind or form,
Never feed horse more grain than is
readily eaten up clean. Be sure that
the collars are comfortable and fit
well. Horses should be well broken
before put on the market. Feed a
horse in proportion to its size and the
labor it is to perform. AS a rule,
coarse hair in the name and tail of a
horse denotes bad blood. 1t seldom
adds to the beauty of a horse to forcs
his head out of the way he naturally
holds it.-Midland Farmer.
