THE COUNTY FAIR.

Much may be said in favor of a
county fair. Its educa tiOnal features
are excellent rensohs for keeping up
the home fair. Improved live stock of
every class is brought before the farm.
ers. Interest in improved live stock
Is strengthened.
But there are many hindrances in
showing live stock at the county fair.
The premium lists are indefinite and
may be made to take in all the cross
breeds. In the sheep department they
often have downs type, as they call
it.
This means that Hampshire downs,
ShrOpshires, SOuthdOwns and all their
various crosses may compete for the
same prize. The judge knows little or
nothing about breeding types. If lie
sees large, well-framed black face,
with good lengthy wool probably a
Shropshire, CotswOld cross, it is the
prize winner, and the man with the eX-
pensive pure-bred returns home dis
gusted. Not until our county fair
managers are selected from the breed
ing fraternity can we expect to make
the county fair of advantage to the
farmer. Farm products of the high
est type must come in competition with
each other. The race horse draws the
crowds, and often gets the farmers
money, but does practically nothing
toward educating the farmer.-W. b.
Anderson, in the indianapolis News.

What color is least easily seen at 4
distance? One would naturally say
some dull neutral tint. sombre gray
or brown. This has been the conclu-
sion of NEST military men, and our
brilliant dress uniforms have given
way for practical campaigning to
khaki and other dull colors. Is this a
mistake? Possibly so, according to
the results obtained in recent expert
ments in England. 1t has been found
there that masses of dull color are
very much mere conspicions at dis
lance than mixtures of bright tints.
For instance, a battery of field artll-
lery whose carriages and caissons
were decorated with stripes of red,
blue and yellow could be made out
with difficulty at a thousand yards,
while other batteries painted a uni
form brown or drab were easily seen
at great distances 1t would seem as

of gayly dressed troops might be less

CLEAN THE HOGS.

To give the pigs thorough scrub
bling may appear to be labor thrown
away, but If two lots of hogs are treat
ed alike in every respect, except that
one lot receives thorough scrubbins
with Soapsuds once in while, there
will be a marked difference in favor of
the hogs that are washed when the
time for slaughtering arrives. A clean
bed of straw, with dry house, so as
to afford them comfort at night, will
also promote thrift and growth. The
hog is naturally clean animal and
enjoys bath. If considered a filthy
animal that devours filthy food it is
because of the treatment given. Hogs
will select clean and wholesome food
always if given the opportunity to do

How the Lobster Uses His Claws.

If you take the trouble. when you
save up money enough and purchase
a lobster. to notice the claws you will
observe that each is peculiar, and
quite materially differs from the 9TH
err. One claw is scissors, the 9TH
err a mill: one a cutter. the second a
cracker.
Practically lobster has ten legs,
but of these only eight are used in
walking. or these ten legs the front
pair the claws, are employed in seiz-
ing and crushing it's prey. Generally
the right claw is the more slender
and longer, and has sharp teeth on
it's edges. while the other has no
teeth but blunt tubercles. or ham,
mers. This left claw is operated by
stronger muscles. Sometimes, how
ever, the scissors claw is the left one
and the hammer, or crusher, claw IL
the right.-Kennebec Journal.

PROFITABLE, DUCKS.

A number of inquiries have been re.
ceived by the editor of this department
asking for information regarding the
profit in duck raising. The writer has
found that raising ducks paid if they
could have a considerable range, plenty
of green stuff and also grain in con.
siderable quantity. TO feed at this
rate could only be done when the bulk
of the food was raised on the farm,
and even then the work was not profit
able unless nearby market could be
had at fair prices.
Fortunately, we are located near
summer resort, where the prices paid
for ducks are good, and we market the
birds as soon as they are well feath-
cred out. The grain is, of course, Of
last years growing, but we keep the
ducks in good growing shape by using
plenty of green stuff from the garden
and skim milk from the dairy. Unless
conditions are unusually favorable,
most farmers will find chicken rails
ing more profitable than duck raising.

Value OF OIL as Steamship Fuel.

4 trial Of oil as fuel instead of cOaa
has recently been made by the British
steamer Enterprise with satisfactory
results. She Is steel vessel, with
carrying capacity Of 1000 tons. With
coal as her fuel she has never exceeded
an average of eight or nine knots an
hour, but with oil she has finished a
voyage from Hawaii to San Francisco
and has succeeded in gaining speed
of ten knots an hour. 1t was demon.
strated that in substituting oil for coal
the ship made saving of forty per
cent. in the weight Of the fuel, and Of
thirty-six per cent. in the space devoted
to its storage. There was also slight
gain in the cost Of fuel and operation
of the ship.-New York Press.

RULES FOR FEEDING.

Each farmer must make his own
rules for feeding, as The amount OF
food required by animals, even when

same age and weight differs widely
Some animals are very dainty, while
others will accept any kind of food
offered. The standard rule for feed
