Hard as it is to dismante this old place

is child's play in comparison to DlSMANT-
LING A DEEP-ROOTED TRADITION.
Columbus probably dismantled many
ships and built many, and he easily solved the
physical problem Of standing an egg on end.
But when It came to tearing down the
IDEA that the world was flat his task was
not so easy.
An idea-faise or true-is hard to knock
outof peoples heads once it gets fixed there
It was years before they stopped burning
witches in New England
Shrewd old business men used to believe
that II was right to charge ANY price they
could get And the queer part Of II was
that customers seemed to agree with them.
II was sort Of battle Of wits.
Old-time tradesmen used to think It was
smart to get rid Of old or worthless goods
without the customer KNOWING It until
he got home--and then there was no taking
things back.
Prices were abnormay high. and mer-
chants counted their profits when they
finished marking their goods, not realizing
that money is never made until the goods
are SOLD.
Such false notions HAD to be " dsman.
ted," when we first opened store, before
we could BUILD the business.

Hostesses who do not approve OF
serving wines. and yet want to intro
duce a convivial flavor to the con-
versation, can now get china that is
decorated with toasts. There are Ger
man drinking songs on teacuDs that
make one wonder if he is awake or

earthenware dishes from Scotland
which look as if they might have been
used in Mamie Webster's cottage
when the Little Minister took tea with
her.

The history of the widow and her
friends is depicted on lunch plates.
and there are egg cups with little
rhymes in the same kind of gilt let

The following is an example of the

The most exclusive thing in china
decoration is the Chinese dragon as

story goes-from a plate stolen from

Chinese territory.

Search for Gold In Norway.

OF all places on the earth where
the gold-hunter is rewarded in the
most niggardly fashion it would be
hard to beat Finmark, the most north.
ern province of Norway. The wash
ings last year produced 365 grains of
gold, and since 1898 the total has
only been $4,000 grains. Last year
the management of the works cost
the government $500. Nevertheless,
the state is not content. 1t is now
proposed to send out an expedition
to look for new gold veins. One big
vein is said to have been found,
which it is hoped will give good re-
suits, and thus reward the stubborn
perseverance wherewith the search
has been prosecuted.

Outdoor Sports in Porto nIco.

The idea which once prevailed
among Americans in Porto Rico that
northern outdoor sports such as base
ball. tennis, etc, could not be sue
cessfully introduced into Porto Rico
is now waning. The Americans havo
virtually made baseball the national
outdoor sport of Porto Rico. as it has
been for long time in the United
States. Tennis tournaments are being
held, and football, cycling and other
sports have been tried TO some ex-
tent When a northernar becomes ac-
ciimated. he seems to enjoy outdoor
sports here about the same as he
does in the north. What great
many of us need here in the tropics
is exercise, but too often we are dis
inclined to take it.-San Juan News.

THE PROFITABLE HORSE.

Which is the most profitable horse
for the farmer to breed? This is
question which interests every farmer
when first equipping his farm and
when replacing his teams.
The first point is to have the type
suited to the heavy labor of the farm;
and next, the one which will bring the
most profit on the market. Now in
what horse may you find this combi-
nation? To the average farmer We
will say, breed the best qualitys OF
draft horse, and be sure to breed them
for size and quality, selecting your
mares of the highest quality possible,
not less than $500 to 1000 pound, and
keep quality, soundness, bone, color
and disposition in mind when select
ing your breeding stock.
On stiff, heavy soils, and likewise
on nilly farms, where considerable
areas are annually titled. the horse
labor requires weight to increase mo-
mentum. In such cases the heavy
draft horse acts as balance-wheel
on machinery, keeping the load NOV
ing when an obstruction or inequality
is encountered. The farm machinery
must be drawn over the hills, the
crops transported to market over
these same hills, and often a mud
road, at the time of the year when
they are simply wretched, as in the
case of spring. Then the draft ami
mails are much more even in tempera-
ment and more reliable as workers,
which makes it possible to employ
help that world be unsafe and useless
for handling the higher melted light
err horses.
Now, perhaps it would not be out
of the way if we would tell you what
we think is good type Of craft horse.
In the first place. you want iI.elli-
gence in horse as much as you do
anything else. Then you want, a
good, broad forehead, prominent clip
teal eye, with ears of medium size,
well set, not wide apart, not too close
together, but set SO they look active;
with good, large. open nostril What
does that indicate? The nostril is
just an extension Of the lungs, and if
the animal has large nostrils, with
just a thin membrane, it shows the
horse has good lungs. Lips not too
thick; muscular neck, surmounted
by heavy name. The shoulders
should be more nearly upright than
those of horse for speed. Fore legs
should be wide apart, fat. short,
straight, we'll under body, standing
square and firm; foot should be of
good size, hoof large. round and
smooth, and frog sound and large.
The back should be straight. short and
broad, and what is often spoken of as
being doubled with muscles The
chest should be deep. wide ana low;
girth large, and ribs long and round.
Good action is essential. as indicated
by the length of the stride, quickness
Of step, and straight-away movement.

SPECIAL FATTENING OF GEESE,
The premises in which French geese
are fattened are, in many cases, not
very preseutable. Bat when we con.
slider the houses and farm buildings
generally in France, and compare
with them such as are to be met with
at home, it is scarcely to be wondered
that this should be so. AS rule, old
sheds Of any sort or kind are turned
into fattening places for the geese:
ant even open pens are employed,
though with them are rough sheds
into which they can go at night. OF
course, geese are by nature dirty, and
the places where they are kept are by
no means attractive. That dirty
state fike this is desirable, much less
essential, to poultry rearing and fat
.tening, cannot be conceded for sin

RAISE PURE BRED POULTRY.

The farmer himself will admit that
he has the best place of ali places for
the rearing of fine stock of any kind,
especially poultry. and the city fancier
looks forward to the time when he can
move his flock out on a farm and
have unlimited range. While it is
true every farm should be stocked
with pure bred poultry of the breed
liked best by the proprietor, it is also
true that not one farm in ten has any
thing better than scrubs, and we have
often wondered why the up-to-date
farmer who has blooded cattle and
hogs and knows they are the best is
still content with his scrub poultry
which is more often than net OF the
scrubbiest kind.
On the farm we have unlimited
range if We want it. plenty of room
for houses and yards-an abundance
of feed of different varieties at the
lowest possible prices; indeed, much
of it being waste grain worth nothing
at all on the market. Eggs and young
chickens are here produced at price

of, yet the farmer thinks his scrub
hens are good enough"
We must get this wrong idea re-
moved from the farmers mind, anG
let him know that he can have the
finest, of pure bred poultry ON the
farm, give them unlimited range just
as he does mis- scrubs, and he will not
have to buy any fresh meat nor patent
chick food. His fine fowls can make
their own living and buy all the gro.
ceries." just as well as his scrubs.
They will be much handsomer, health
ier-if not inbred-and will lay nearly
twice as many eggs. His young chicks
will grow faster and reach a market
able size sooner with less feed, pro-
vided he does not feed wet cornmeal
The flock young and old can occupy
the. same houses and coops that his
scrubs now live in, his hens will be
just as fat, his cockrels more vigor-
Gus and the eggs more fertile-Mrs.
