have a double breaster, cut them long
enough to reach clear across all three

through the timber just over the mouth

An auger-hole may be made to re-

the bottles instead of holding the

this case / would allow a quarter of
the pin to stand above to prevent the

HERE'S A VALUABLE HINT.
Class Posts, Made Of Old Quart Bot
ties, Are Just the Thing for
Beehive Stands.

Our twentieth century demands
something new. cheap and durable In
the way OF stand for our hives to rest
on. DR.. ]. W. Guyson, in Gleanings. Of
fers the following: get the longest
quart bottles can find, and with hoe
I make a set of four or six holes--four
holes for one hive and six for two
hives. These holes are set at regular
distances apart to receive the bodies
of the bottles. set them in about half
their length, with the mouths up. The
bottles are to be leveled up with q
straight board and spirit-level. Put
them in straight rows just where you
want your hives to be, and have them
face just the way you desire your
hives to stand.
Now take some 1x2 stuff and have
It smooth and we'll painted for the
hives to rest on. Cut them two or
three inches longer than your bottom.

How They Agreed.

Mr.. Martin was fond Of pets and was
somewhat inclined to boast Of the
friendly feeling existing among his
dogs, guinea pigs, owls and fancy pi-

reason to suspect that all was not going
well on the Martin side of the fence.

THE FATTENING OF GEESE,
How the Article Known Commercially
as "Foie Gras" Is Produced

til fatty infiltration Of the liver has
set in and that organ weighs from 21s
to three pounds is practiced on large
scale about Strasburg, and to less ex-
tent about Toulouse and elsewhere.
The birds are usually confined in small,
dark cages; they can move only few
inches, and are fed two or three times
day, commonly with all the ground
maize or wheat-four paste they can
be made to eat. When they have be-
come very fat. usually at the end Of
about three weeks. they are killed and
the livers removed.
The livers, which are perhaps no
more abnormal than the flesh of an
over-fed hog, commonly appear in our
market in jars or tins in three distinct
forms. Foie gras au naturel, pate de
foie gras (by far the most popular)
and puree de foie gras. The foie gras
au naturel is simply the liver pre-
served without any dressing. The
pates are made of large pieces OF the
liver, cooked and dressed with truf-
fles and other condiments. These
pieces are fitted into cans by trim.

Hay Farm Better Than Gold Mine.

A good hay farm in the Yukon valley
is better paying proposition than an
ordinary gold mine. This fact has been
demonstrated by Dawson freighter,
who is farming large tract of native
hay at Gravel Lake, on the trail between
Dawson and the Duncan district. Stewart
river Last fall this man put in an i'm
mense quantity of fine hay, enabling
him to bale more than 600 tons this win
ter Besides wintering his own large
herd of stock. he has considerable feed
for sale, receiving $40 ton. At this
price his crop was worth $4,000. He
clears a profit Of at least 100 per cent.
Winter weather has not yet prevented
continuous work. A crew Of ten men has
been employed and two six-mule teams
to collect bales and carry them to mar
ket. His entire crop was cut with
scythes and handled in primitive man
ner. Next season he will replace these
methods with modern farming imple-
ments, greatly reducing the cost OF
handling the crop. - San Francisco

HOW TO TICKLE A TROUT.
Connecticut Man Who Has Experi-
mented Says They Are Suscep-
tible to Establishments.

Three years ago Joseph s. Nicholson
stocked q small pond across the road
from his residence In Tariffville with
brook trout. They have grown to be
from one to two pounds In weight and
are very tame, says the Hartford
Courant.
Mr.. Nicholson feeds the trout on raw
beef. chopped very fine, and plays with
them much as you would with puppy.
They eat out of his hand and allow him
to fondle them as he pleases. But like
q playful dog they sometimes play too
hard and bite, and when they do theiI
sharp teeth draw blood.
One form of amusement which Mr.,
Nicholson has invented is a sort of tug
of-war match. He fastens piece o.
meat to one end of string and then it's
tussle to see which Is the stronger.
trout or man. The trout digs his toea
into the turf, so to speak, sits back OF.
his launches and pulls for fair. In real
lty he backs water with his fms. Then
he will suddenly turn and try to run
away with the bait. 1t is but fair to Mr..
Nicholson to say that he is like the cir
Gus manager who always lets the woman
charioteer beat the Roman.
They make the water froth and bub-
BILE. these trout at meal time and later
become playful and sportive. For it's
certain that the trout takes more
cheerful view of life after square meal,
just as man does. II the trout had ears
that you could scratch and tickle as you
do dogs, he would probably derive the
same pleasure therefrom that the dog
does but the trout isn't built that way.
All the same you can touch his suscep-
Utilities. The trick is in knowing where
to tickle him.
This is not equivalent to the old saw:
Catch bird by putting salt on its tail.
Mr. Nicholson has already tanned his
trout so that they will come up into his
hands, and he has learned by expert
ment that they like to be stroked in that
part Of the body where they stow away
the worm. Properly soothed in this
manner you can lift trout completely
out of the water without his making a
flop.
Mr.. Nicholson says he had one
charmed when he lived in the west so
that he could carry him all around a
room without disturbing the trout's
peace of mind. With his trained trout
in Tariffville he has not yet attempted
so complete a reversal of natural laws,
but they like to be petted. as does child
with stomachache. and come to his
hands and beg him in trout pantomime
