LOOK Al Tho LAKE.
Diners in Chicago Restaurants Over
looking Lake Michigan Ask for
Seats nt the Windows.

A New Yorker who is frequent Wis
itor here says that to ask for seat
overlooking the water has become an
unconscious habit with the Chicago
restaurant diner, says the Tribune.
Let him so into a hotel or restau-
rant on Michigan avenue or one of the
nigh eating places from which view
Of the lane may be had, and the first
hing he does is to ask for table from
which he can see the lake. If they are
all full he expresses appointment at
having to take one few feet away,
hey are positively uneasy and feel
, mselVes defrauded if they don't get
That location. Nine times out OF ten he
will telephone to have place by Win
dow on that side saved for him.
The funny part of it is" continued
no one in tbs party ever glances at the
water, but all go on with their talking
and eating apparently as obliviOus of
the lakes existence, much more so,
than if they sat on the other side OF the
room. This, and the fact that the same
people go back and forth on Michigan
avenue and ride in the Illinois Central
trains without speaking of Lake Michi-
gan or giving it a glance, make it ap-
pear that this request which the Chi
cago man invariably makes is habit
rather than something that adds to his
enjoyment of his dinner"

DEATH TO THE DOGFISH.
Government Aid to Be Sought for It's
determination ON the At
lantie Coast.

One Of the great problems which is
interesting the people of the Atlantic
coast, and especially that part OF the
coast lying between Casco bay, Me-, and
Cape Hatteras, N. c.. is the extermina-
tiOn of the dogfish. The dOgfsh, says
the Boston Transcript, Is species Of the
shark and has habit of following its
prey in packs The fish uses its spine in
a remarkable manner bending itself
into the form of bow, and unbending
with a powerful spring. 1t is caught in
nets which have ben set for other
fish, and sometimes measures three or
four feet in length. These fish have null
tiplied very much of late, and as moth
ing has been done to exterminate them,
the people of the Atlantic coast have
thought it their duty to bring the mat
ter before the government in the form
of petition which will be placed before
congress. Dogfsh, the sea wolves of the
ocean, intest the Atlantic coast within
great range of latitude in schools, and
each dogfish, which weighs five pounds,
will, it is estimated. eat and destroy a
large quantity of edible food fish yearly.
Not only do the dognsh eat the valuable
foolish, but they eat the food OF the
same food fish, thus doing double injury
to the nations fisheries.

DITCH is OPENED.
New Company Turns Water On

3eading out of the Umatllla river near

,dleness of about 10 years.
In fact. the ditch has never been in
vlse. having been started. but never COM
uIeted, and new company of Echo peo
v,le begun work on it about two months
r4go, and have just opened it up and
4urned the water through.
Considerable work had been done on
she ditch about 10 years ago, and it was
recently revived and new water right
2iiled by the present company, and will

1t will convey the flood waters of the

Echo, and will reclaim one OF the richest
Bodies of land lying idle at this time in
RJmatllla county. While all the summer
aciow of the Umatills is now claimed by
s7lo bitches now in operation, it is in
Z, ended to use nothing but the freshes
l. n this ditch and it's extensions, and with
&inter irrigation, reclaim all the trbu-
@ary land lying under it and between the
s3utter Creek settlement and Echo.
The land covered by the ditch is a
sandy, warm loam, with light growth
of scrubby sagebrush, which is easily
cleared off, and when the land is once
cleared, it will produce any crop grown
IN the temperate climate.
This sagebrush Is cleared off by drag

LIGHTHOUSE HEROINES.
They Have Done Their Work in
Satisfactory Manner.

The history of the lighthouse service
shows that women are thoroughly re-
liable and efficient as lightkeepers. AS
a rule they are not appointed 10 the
care Of lights OF the first Importance,
because the work would be too ardu-
Gus; but wherever they have been put
they have done their duty most salts
factOrily. The Boston Herald tells Of
many notable feats OF heroism per-
formed by women lighthouse-keeper
On Lake Michigan, at the north end
of Milwaukee bay, stands tall red
tower, which is under the charge of
Mrs. Georgia Stebbins. It's light is 1872
for 20 miles. Ten years ago there was
frightful storm, and three men, upset
from sailbOat, were in imminent dan
ger of drowning. Mrs. Stebbins went
to their assistance, and rescued them
at the risk Of her own life
Twenty-Five miles out in the ocean,
in the pathway Of the steamers from
Boston to Halifax, is a barren and
rugged island OF small area, which in
stormy weather Is often swept by the
waves. 1t is called Matinicus Rock,
and the lighthouse was formally kept
by man named Sam Burgess.
On one occasion in winter he had
gone away to the mainland to procure
Provisions, when the weather turned
bad and prevented him from returning.
Meanwhile, his wife, who was an in
valid. and her four daughters lived for
three weeks on one cup of corn meal
and one egg apiece per day. The sea
swept everything off the rock, driving
the family to the light tower; yet the
lights during all that dreadful period
were as carefully tended as usual, and
never failed.
The wife of a lighthouse-keeper Of
ten acts as his assistant and perfoms
all his duties when he happens to be
away. Thus it chanced that once, dur !

band had charge OF North Dumping |

THEY ALL TALKED SPUDS
An Interesting Convention of
Potato Growers Held in
GIenwo0d Springs.
CONTINUED from last week. J


Outside of those that frosted, l have
never had potatoes that kept so well.
My brother kept his two years in
good condition: this year he had
trouble with his because there is nc
current through his cellar. If you try
to reduce the moisture from one end,
the air goes out the first two or three
ventilators.
Q.-Any windows for light9
A.-No, sir: we don't want light
we want darkness.
Q What is the roof timberf
Alt is Just frame like you
would build log cabin, covered or
with poles two or three inches apart
to allow what moisture raises to come
up through this willow brush foot
or two feet into the straw over that,
and that takes care of the surplus
moisture that is not carried off by the
currents of air. Mr.. Sebree for two
years has kept his potatoes perfect
the same way and even without the
ventilation through. never keel
figures that would frighten me-sc
l don't know which is the cheaper
method. but it seems to me that oul
people lose FROM carelessness and in
efficient help in sorting potatoes. Al
Greeley they have grown potatoes and
have the same pickers for years and
they have got them schooled and edn.
Gated in picking, sorting and select
ing potatoes great deal more tha,
ours in this new territory. About
runnirg the potatoes over the softer
in the field, keep reliable man with
a sorter to pick ont the good ones from
those few that may be decayed, sun
burned or frosted, and sacks sewed il
the field; that is cheaper method
than in this valley. of dumping d
half hushel III a sack, man bending
over, picking mp few in sack and
then spilling them and dumping then
in and brusing them, dirt and all.
Have large wagon bodies made Il
feet long in the clear, 9 feet deep,
that haul SO to 65 sacks, practically
100 to 1875 bushels at load.
Q-I would like to ask why you
want them in the dark2
Any experience is in the cellar
where they have light, with me. -
that they grow more rapidly; my idea
was that all plants grow better in the
sunlight or in the light, may grow
green.
Q.-What is your percentage OF
shrinkage2
Al have not shipped those pota
toes this spring, so l could not tell; II
would only be an average anyway; IN,
brother last year had one pound
shrinkage per sack, from October unit
next June. One hundred sacks Of
seed potatoes 1 had to complete my
planting, last year, had one pound oi
shrinkage per SACK this was the 5tt
of June, and not sprout had started
on those potatoes; but still his condi
tions were not as perfect as they car
be made.
