A Rare Disease.

Mrs. Juniper entered the doctors of- flee, dragging by the hand an over- grown boy of fourteen. She was ex- cited and impatient; he was dogged and glum. "Oh, doctor he has lost his voice! He hasn't spoken a word for two days" she said.
 The boy looked at her sullenly, and suffered the doctor to hold his face up to the light.
 "Open your mouth. I'm! Tongue all right?"
 "Ya-ah."
 Hold your head up and let me look at your throat Seems to be nothing the trouble there. Push your tongue out. Now pull it back. Feel all right"
 "Ya-ah."
 "Why. Mrs. Juniper, there is nothing the matter with him" said the doctor, impatiently. Boy. why don't you talkY

Ideal Home Life.

The man and woman who try to make their home the most interest," ing spot on earth for each other and for their friends, have but occasional use for the club. It is to them what the theater is-a mere place to enter now and then, not spot to dwell in. Women's clubs have been the out growth of mems clubs. heard a man say that they both were evils in the land, as they were doing away with the social pleasures where both sexes were represented. The man finds his social life in the club at night, the woman at hers in the af- ternoon, and so their lives and in. terests drift apart; but where the real spark of love burns in their hearts and the right principals guide them, all the clubs on earth can not separate their interests or divide their lives. The right woman can win the right man from every club on earth if she wishes to do so.-Ella Wheeler Wilcox in Conkey's Home Journal.

He Misled Them.


 "What has besome of that MT. Jol. Hem who used to be so fond of your little Percival?" we asked of the proud mamma.
 "Oh," she says, "don't mention that detestable person to me againw
 "But why? He seemed thoroughly enraptured with the child. He was always dandling it on his knees and getting 1t to talk for him"
 "That's just 1t. He would take little Percival on his lap and stuff the child with candy and encourage him in every way to try to talk, and then-and then"
 "And then what? He didn't try to kidnap the infant"
 "Worse than that" she lamented. we learned that he was the manager of biscuit factory, and his only pur. pose in fawning over our darling was to get him to say something that could be converted into a name for . new brand of goods."

 How Homes of Millionaire New York.
 CTS Are Guarded from Burglars.
 Four hundred felt-shod, silent sen tinels patrol the halls and stairways of 400 houses in New York each night. They are the guardians of the families and property of 400 of the wealthiest inhabitants of the city, and hour by hour they make their solitary rounds from basement to garret, beginninggbe- fore the house is closed for the night and ending their vigils only after the milkman, the butchers boy and the grocer's boy have made their morning calls.
 They are known among the police and the professional watchmen as fin. side men," and they supplement the work of the city's police force, the pri- vate watchman and the burglar alarm system which are installed in many of these houses. To their presence is ascribed the practical absence of bur glar1es in this class of homes. No midnight visitor can go to the home of Vanderbilt, an Astor, Gould, a Morgan, Rockefeller or any other of these 400 rich men without his pres ence being known to an "inside man."
 The "inside man" goes on duty after dinner in the evening. He wears no uniform, no badge on the outside of his coat, for he is known Ion his beat" His shoes are soled heavily with felt and he is armed with a revolver, a "biny" and police whistle. When he goes on duty he registers the hour on a paper dial and makes a round of the house. It may be he has time to chat with the cook or maid, usurp. ing the prerogatves of the policeman on the beat, for his responsibility is not great in the early hours of the evening. It Is after the household is wrapped in slumber that he becomes really busy for from that time on he must be ever on the move.
 It is his duty to see fire does not start from an overloaded furnace, an exposed electric light wire or a gas jet, as well as to protect the silver plate, the jewels, the works of art and the heirlooms of his employer.
 On each floor of the house is time recorder and on each of these the "in- side man" must leave his mark at least once an hour. He must search the cellar, assure himself no burglar is hidden in the coal bins and sec that the windows in the basement have not been tempered with Then he must go to the floor above and with similar precaution make certain that every. thing is safe and sound. Then floor by floor, room by room, he must exam, inc the house, ending. his beat close under the roof. and then start over again.
 No footfall disturbs the master of the house or any other inmate, for the felt shoes are designed for silence. No slamming door echoes through the silent halls, for the "inside man" is trained to be as noiseless with his hands as with his feet.

A STABLE FACTOR.

Irrigation is the coming factor
to help out the farmer or fruit
grower. Water and sunshine are
the two essentials for the produc-
ton of good crops. 1t is unwise
to longer depend upon the freaks
of tickle climate and futile at
tempt to fortell the weather.
What is wanted is stability and
certainty. This government never
did a wiser thing than when it set
apart the funds received from the
sale of public lands to be used in
irrigating the arid lands of the
west. Other nations are making
efforts in the same direction. The
English have built a great dam
across the Nile so that irrigation in
Egypt may be controlled, with
two or three crops each season.
And now it has been decided to
apply irrigation to immense tracts
of land in South Africa. That
country has vast underground
lake and with irrigation can be
made to grow anything from COW
peas to orchids.-Rice Belt News,
Crowley, La.

SWINE NOTES.

For finishing hogs for the
butcher shorts, peas, corn, oats
and barley are the best.
Equal parts of wheat middlings,
ground oats and corn meal make
good ration for growing pigs.
The most marketable hogs are
those that weigh IT'S to 200
pounds; they should not be over
fat.
If you keep large hogs without
grain, and pigs on maintenance
ration only, look out for loss in
both ways.
Black teeth in pigs do not indi-
cate disease. Just what causes
them has never been satisfactorily
explained.
A dressed hog gives about so
per cent. of its live weight in
dressed meat; the steer only about
so per cent.
A healthy pig, if thoroughbred,
should weigh ninety pounds
ninety days from his advent into
this world of trouble"
The little pigs should not be
kept on a board floor for any
length of time, or they will be-
come crippled in their feet and
legs.
Where practicable let each
brood SOW have an acre or two of
pasture ground in separate lots.
In this way the SOW and litter are
kept quiet, and the feeder can
cater to their special needs.
Arrange the trough so that the
slop can be evenly distributed
throughout its entire length.
When the slop is poured in one
end of the trough a few of the
strongest pigs get the main part
of the ration, the weaker mem
bers suffering in consequence.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1904-12-17

In some cases a large tract is
held nominally in the name of one
person, but is really owned by sew
eral co-heirs. In such cases the
land may be divided and decided
to the several owners, who can
each purchase water for 100 acres
in addition to the irrigated area.
The records must show the land
to be held in the name of the
water-right applicant by deed,
bond or contract.
The question has been often
asked whether a man, who owns a
large tract, can deed portions of
his land to his wife and children
of legal age SO that they may quail
ify as water-right holders. The
Secretary of the Interior holds
that this is legal if the transfer is
bona fde, but they cannot subse-
quently deed back to him if he
owns a I6o-acre water right. The
Reclamation Service will assist all
who desire to get their affairs in
shape to meet the requirements of
the land offices, but has decided to
not press its offices upon anyone.
Owners of private lands who do
not desire to conform to the rules
governing the distribution of
water from the government sys-
tenn will, of course, retain their
present water rights, and water
will be turned into their private
bitches according to the nature OF
their rights and the fluctuations in
the normal flow of Carson river.

At a recent meeting of engineers
at FL Paso, Texas, there was dis
cussed proposed plan of varying
the rates of payments for a water
right, making the payments small
at the beginning and large at the
close of the ten years. A commit
tee to pass upon the matter was
appointed. 1t has not yet re-
ported, but it is understood that
the members are in favor of max
ing the payments equal and hav-
ing the first payment payable
after the third crop year, instead
of after the first or second crop
season, it it can be so arranged
