O'Neil. Regarding the disbursement of
the donation of Mrs. Hearst, Cameron
said that Kelly was entitled to expend
the amount as he saw fit, and that
he had given the money away to ap-
plicants for charity and other worthy
causes.
The investigating doctors thought
that Kelly should furnish vouchers for
the amounts expended cut of Mrs
Hearst's donation, but Cameron did not
agree with them.
The investigation was then adjourned
in order to give Kelly an opportunity
of appearing and making a personal
explanation.

Had Dog-and-Cat Time.

A man leading small dog by a
long chain created quite a sensation
on Penn square, near Broad street sta
ton, recently, says the Philadelphia
Record, when there was an encounter
with strange cat. The dog barked
at the cat and the cat Immediately
sprang at the dogs head. The dog
started to run around in a circle and
succeeded in dragging its chain around
his master and strange woman.
The chain caught round the woman's
feet and she fell forward against the
man, who swore violently. The wom-
an screamed, the dog howled and the
cat spat viciously. Several bystanders
had to grasp the dogs chain and hold
it firmly, while the cat was chased
away by couple of boys.
Then the woman who had been trim
ped told what she thought of a man
who was pulled about by a dog on a
chain, but all the argument was out
of the man and he skunk away, after
giving the dog a kick that was regis
tered by canine yell.

David was better-looking man than
Jonathan and had more money. The
time arrived at last when all Oxford
knew that Bertha rrieze had deliber-

Jonathan's father and mother were
extremely grateful to David. Jona-
than went to look for David with a
revolver, and luckily did not find him.
After his first burst of fury he con-
tented himself with sarcastic letter,
in which he told David that their &C.
Quaintance was at an end. Years have
wonderfully softening effect, and if
Jonathan meets David in the street

An old country poultryman makes
the following suggestions as a help in
selecting good layers: "There are Ger.
tain individual characteristics, one OF
which is the shape of a bird. If a
straight line be drawn from the back
Of the head to the toes. the hen which
Is likely to be good layer will usual
~ have the hinder half of her body
largest, whilst hen which may lie
suspected Of being a poor layer viii
show more in the front; the reason
being that poor layer makes a bet
ter table bird, and has a larger, longer
breast, whilst good layer makes q
poor table bird. and has a compare.
lively small breast, whilst the egg or.
gans are more fully developed. Birds
which are good layers are usually very
active. They always look healthy, and
in most cases their combs are usually
fully developed, particularly If they
belong to the long-combed varieties
which are reputed to be the best lay
ers. A hen with a long comb may
usually be regarded as a good layer
and If she is not there must be some
special reason for the contrary"

THE OLD HOME.

Twas only humble cottage,
Not far from the village street;
But the cool green meadows inclosed it,
And the flowers brought fragrance
sweet.
The birds in the roofs old matches,
The winds in the tall elm tree,
The pathway that led to the woodlands,
Made the happiest home for me.
Then, no world beyond the meadows,
Disturbed my beautiful dream;
My playmates were birds and flowers,
And we used to sing to the stream.
But now the green meadows have wild
ened,
Far, far to the rolling sea,
And l sail away on it's bosom
From the home Of my infancy.
o lands Of crimson and purple!
0 white-jeweled cities afar!
Ye throb on the restless ocean,
Ye dazzle like Orient star;
But, oh! for the home of my childhood,
And my world of meadow and tree;
For the quiet calm of those old, old
days
Has forever gone from me.

Five-HOrse Equalizer.

A. J. Rattan, Of Treesbank, Man,
writes the Northwest Farmer inclosing
a sketch Of five-horse equalizer. He
says: II have had considerable expe-
rience in breaking up grub land and
have found that the very best results
come from a good strong feurteen-inch
grub pillow. Two men, al DIX, brush
scythe and five horses comprise the
best outfit that can be obtained for any
field. In order to equalize the COM
bined strength of the horses an evener
is made on the plan shown in the il

fifteen inches long is selected. An
inch hole is bored three-fifths of the
distance from the end for the clevis

AAC + III coulter,
Inc cut herewith illustrates a STYLE
OF plow coulter which is often used in
the West. 1t is made from high-grade
crucible steel about three-eighths of an
inch thick. and cuts through the soil
easily. There are certain conditions
under which the rolling coulter will
not work well, and then the fin coulter
can often be used to good advantage.
Years ago the land side of the share
was always dovetailed and the cutter
set in level, but later manufacturers
and blacksmiths have simply riveted
or bolted the steel to the share without
dovetailing. This is cheaper than dove
failing, but the latter method causes
the plow to run better than when the
cutter is bolted to the side. The fin
cutter is always slanted we'll back and
Is rounded back at the top. When
made in this form, wear does not so
soon impair its usefulness as if the

Sheep for a Weedy Farm,

A Kansas correspondent has d
weedy farm, wishes to try sheep, and
wants to know what breed is best
to start with in a section where but
few sheep are grown and the surplus
would have to be sold to the local
butcher.
We would get as good type Of NUT.
ton sheep as we could conveniently
without inquiring particularly as to
the breed. We would not take Meri-
nos, however, unless they were pretty
well graded up with some of the NUT
ton breeds of which the Shropshire is
the most generally known and a very
popular breed. We would not get
more than twenty-five or fifty to starr
with and would use buck of the NUT
ton breeds that we could get most con-
veniently; Shropshire, Southdown,
Hampshire or Oxford. If the butchers
do not give enough we would kill the
surplus and sell them to the neighbors.
Where a man has weedy pastures or
weedy lands, any kind Of sheep will
pay even if he has to sell the surplus
at low prices.--Wallace's Farmer.
