another billy every year, but when
you keep your young does in sepa-
rate pasture, so they are not bred be-
fore they are one and one-half years
old. you can use the same billy for
two seasons. Were this done, your
Angora will grow much larger and the
whole flock will look nicer; in fact,
it is a shame to let the young does
bring kids before they are quite or
nearly two years old. In most flocks
the young does bring their first kids
when they are not quite one year
old, and this is one reason why most
of the Angora goats are smaller than
they naturally should be. Concerning
the exchanging of your billies, you
can do this with your neighbOrs or
other goatmen. If you cannot find
anyone to exchange billies with, |
will accommodate you in this respect;
having already done this for the last
twenty years, | find that it pays well,
and the express charges are cheap in
proportion to the benefit there is in
it. The express companies have
passed a rule by which all shippers
of goats have to sign a contract to
protect themselves against exOrbltant
prices on Angora goats, in case of
accidents in transit; but during all
my shipments in fifteen years not one
accident has happened with any OF
them. The contract that express COM
panies want you to sign is as fair as
it can be, according TO my judgment.

ately answers with twenty strokes of

among a great number of questions
that were put.
"Hans knows the coin of the realm
and the value of playing cards. King,
Queen, ace and the like are differen-
tiated by the hoof. He picked out

from several coins From a number of
pieces of colored cloth laid upon the
ground he will select any color he is
ordered to choose. is it green? you
ask. Five strokes of the hoof is the
reply; and the fifth cloth proves to be
green. The colors may be changed
in any manner; still the horse will
pick out the correct one"
DR.. Heinroth concludes his article
by stating that he is quite convinced
of the impossibllity of any deception.
He has questioned the horse in his
stall in the absence of it's owner, and
he received answers as clear cut and
as precise as those given in the pres
ence of Won Osten.

Bleaching Cherry
A correspondent writes:

A correspondent writes:
"We have a fine lot of celery ready
for bleaching. 1t is on level ground,
not in trenches. We would like to
hear from some of the readers of The
Ranch as to the best method of bleach
ing it. also the best way of keeping 1t
for winter use."
The celery can be bleached either
by throwing dirt up as much as possl-
BILE with the pillow and then finishing
with the shovel, or by setting boards
on edge on either side of the row and
filing it with leaf mold or dirt. Use
care to keen the plants upright while
banking. If it is intended for market,
il is better to bank only every other
row. or every third row the first time
and then another lot of rows in one
or two weeks so as to have success
sion. If kept very long after being
bleached it is likely to deteriorate. In
some sections of the country, it is not
safe to bank up the celery too early
as there is danger of rust when banked
in hot weather Some growers report
verv satisfactory results by using leaf
mold packed between boards set up
on either side of the row.
We do not know much about keep
ing celery for winter use. A Mime
sofa grower of considerable expert
ence is reported as using the following
method He selects place in the
field where the celery is raised and
blows strip of ground eight feet wide
and any length desired, and then down
the center of the strip he digs a ditch
deep enough to set the celery upright
so that the tops will just come even
with the surface of the ground. He
sets the celery in this trench, packing
enough dirt around the roots to hold
it in position. When this trench is
filed, dig another one eight to ten
inches from it and throw the dirt from
this into the first trench, and so on.
When freezing weather comes on ne
covers the celery with six inches of
dirt and allows this to freeze nearly
through, then covers with long manure
to prevent the frost going in any
deeper. He claims that celery buried
in this maner will keep nicely until
spring. For keeping only a small
amount we would try packing it in a
box right side up and pack closely:
Mace this in a cellar and sprinkle the
tons Of the celery every ten days to-
two weeks.

consumed in the charring process.
Fresh bones, when ground, are the
most valuable, being full of animal
matter
Don't use air-slacked lime or ashes
for a dust bath They will bleach out
the shanks.
There is quite as much art in get
ting summer eggs as in getting winter
eggs, and, taking into consideration
the diminished cost of food, the flock
that lays through the summer will
prove nearly if not quite as profitable
as winter layers. Eggs are always
fair price in midsummer owing to the
difficulty in getting fresh eggs.
The naked chicks that are found in
every flock at times are those that re-
quire a larger proportion of animal
food than they are getting. Give them
special diet of animal food and they
will quickly feather out.
Green cut bone should be fed with
caution. A little of it insures health,
quick growth, and more eggs, but too
much will bring on bowel trouble. For
growing chicks a teaspOonful may be
mixed with a quart of mash three
times week.
This is a good time to start the
breeding of pure breeds. Stock can
be bought now at half the price it
will cost in the spring. 1t is not too
late to get a few chicks from a pen
or trio, and the birds will be accli-
mated before another breeding sea-
son.
Careful breeders keep the grass cut
short about their brooder runs from
now on. The chiggers in long grass
and weeds are responsible for many
deaths in late Matched chicks.
Separate the weak chicks of the
older matches from the vigorous. They
are run over and robbed by their more
sturdy brothers and will become runts
unless given special care.
1t is important to watch the water
supply in warm weather Keep drink
ing fountains under the shade of trees
and since the upper part with boiling
water and soda frequently. The foun-
tains become poisonously sour in a

better if cockerels are removed. When

A Reasoning Horse

Hardly a day passes but the news
papers have something to say OF the
wonderful mental performances OF
Clever Hans" der kluge Hans as
Herr Won Osten's stallion is called.
Indeed, some wordy controversies have
been waged over him. Some hold
that he actually reasons; others skep-
tically assert that his intelligence is
simply the result of ingeniously con-
cealed trickery on the part OF his
trainers. An investigation conduct
ed by scientists, however, would seem
to indicate that the horse is really
what his owner claims him to be, an
intelligent four-footed animal, capable
of making simple arithmetical calcu-
lations. and even of ratiOcination. DR..
Heinroth, of Berlin Geological Gardens
has this to say of Hans wonderful
feats in a recent number OF the Ills
ustrirte Zeitung:
."For many years Herr Won Osten,
who was at one time tutor OF mathe-
MATES, has made it his task to deter
mine the intellectual possibilities of a
horse. His first stallion. with whom
he succeeded in doing remarkable
things, died at the end of eight years
Hans his second acquisition, has been
under his care for four years. Won
Osten has no desire to sell the horse
or to display him for money in public
He is instructing him in the interest
of science alone.
"In my presence Won Osten asked
the horse to add such sums as and
and and 3. The horse indicated the
correct answers by stamping with his
right fore-hoof 1t is to be remarked
that during the calculations, Won Os-
ten feeds Hans with carrots. Won Os-
ten declares that without the carrots
the horse would refuse to work. Hans
has never felt the touch of a whip.
This, after all, is not very strange; for
as Won Osten puts it, carrots are to
Hans, simply what honors, titles, rank
and money are to men.
81 asked What are the multiples of
12? the answer came almost 1mme-
diately. Sums such as 72 plus IA are
correctly given. The actual words
Tin Germany What is the difference
between 43 and go were read, and the
answer Immediately paved. No nu-
merals appeared on the black board.
Surely, this is more than the trickery
of training. 1t should here be men
toned that questions can be put by
any bystander. Hans is able to con-
vert common fractions into decimal
fractions. He can also tell by the
clock. If he is asked, 1T is now 40 min

Eas on a broader scale than ever be-

amusements and sports, it has never
been equalled.
Early in the morning the throng be-

the superintendent of the park.
There We're over 200 native Po1yne-
slams present from Hawaii. New Zea-

dressed in native costumes of gay coll
ors and fantastic cut and draping. The
young women presented a pleasing
sight and were the objects of much in
terest as they fitted in and out among
the crowd in their peculiar dress. Their
jet black hair and dark compilations
harmonized with the brilliant colors of
their garments, in which yellow pre-

Another feature of the vast throng
was the presence of over 500 mission
