CHEWING The CUD

who had charge of lot Of milk COWS,
| and she was much distressed when
$she found that one of her COWS had
lost her cud.'' She lost no time in
such cases in wadding up a rag and
putting it in the cows mouth to re-
place the precious article that had
| disappeared. (Perhaps to this circum-
stance we owe our slang saying
chewing the rag.'D Such ignorance
as this can only prevail among those
who do not know the nature of the
COW kind and what it is that differ
entiates them from horses, hogs and
other live stock There are animals
known as ruminants, this word de-
scribing their habit of cud-chewing.
In this group are included domestic
cattle, the sheep, goat. all species of
deer, the camel, antelope, giraffe and
others. All these have fourfold
stomach, the runnet or paunch, the
reticulem or "honey-comb bag. the
psalteriuEn or manyplies, and the alb
omasium, which is the true stomach
Any of these animals, not simply
the COW but all of them, in grazing
crops the grass with the lower front
above, there being no upper front
teeth. AS it is cropped it is worked
by the tongue back into the mouth
until ball is, formed, which is swal-
lowed when it becomes of proper
size. This comes into the runnet or
paunch. The animal grazes until the
Daunch is full of these balls of grass
and leaves, when it either lies down
or. stands in the shade to ruminate.
By an action of the runnet analogous
to vomiting in man, one ball comes
up into the mouth. This is-the "cud.''
1t is ground by the back teeth mixed
with the saliva, and again swallowed.
This time it goes into the second
AS soon as it reaches that
4 second ball or cud is sent I'D into

until the entire contents of the run
let have been chewed, when the ami
nal is ready to go grazing again.

names them, and if the COW 'lost

from the enemy might explode the
torpedo in its tube. They accept the
risk, these quiet looking men, and
Hong for close range later on. Then
they will show the gunnery branch
what a Whitehead. can do.
The captain and gunnery lieutenant
are in the coming tower-a cramped
little structure bristling with voice
| tubes. It contains a small steering
wheel, and is in communication with
both batteries, the several groups Of
guns and the engine rooms. Reports
are constantly being made through
these voice tubes. Thus: "All water
tight doors are closed, sir; Bar
bettes ready for action;' Steam
ready for IS knots, sir" and SO forth.
The chief quartermaster, bearded
veteran, sprucely dressed, grasps the
spokes OF the steering wheel and
keeps an attentive eye upon the cap
tain. Not a man can now be seen
upon the upper deck, but in the thinly
protected top on the. foremost a few
hands and MILDLY are clustered
around three-pounder gun.
All is now ready The fleet in
creases speed and the cruisers, clos

anxious suspense, since scarcely a
dozen men Of the 700 can see the ap-

guns are simultaneously fired. The
ship quivers under the shock of the

The duties devolving upon the fed
eral stock inspectorship operating
from this point, have increased to
such volume that it has become i'm
peritavely necessary that Inspector
Lantz have his labors divided.
To that end the government has
appointed A. H. Bibb of Salt Lake, a
man with considerable experience, as
federal stock inspector, to assist DIR.
Lantz, or more properly speaking,
take from his shoulders some of the
labor and responsibility.
All Eastern Oregon is too large a
field for one man, no matter how ac-
tive, energetic and capable he may
be, to manage, with its immense vol
ume of interstate shipments and
scores of exit points. DR.. Bibb with
his wife has arrived and will make
their permanent residence here.
DR.. Bibb will go to Baker City this
evening to inspect cattle being held
there for shipment. No better illus
tration of the situation can be made
than to refer to the fact that DR..
Bibb is no sooner arrived in town
than he is at once sent to Baker City.
while DR.. Lantz has gone to The

CHILD KILLED.

derson, who lives on her own place.
Is miles northwest of Pendleton, was
killed by sack of wheat falling up-
on him, breaking his neck and frac-
turing his skull.
The little boy, who was a son of
Jacob Konttas, Mrs. Anderson's first
husband, was playing by himself at
the barn. A neighbor's little boy
came over to play with him and was
directed by Mrs. Anderson to the
barn. The neighbor's child went to
the barn and Immediately returned
with the news of the accident,
which had taken place between the
time of the noon meal and 2 O'Clock.
Mrs. Anderson Immediately went to
the barn and found the child lying
on sack of wheat-the third sack
from the floor of the ground. Upon
and across the boy lay another sack
of wheat that had been, when in its
place, the sixth from the ground.
The skull of the child was crushed
and the neck was broken. The faith
er of the boy. Jacob Konttas, was
killed by his team running away on
the way. home from Pendleton about
five years ago.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon at the Union school house. and
the interment was made in the Union
cemetery.

London, Oct. z4.-The Russian
ambassy has issued the following re-
garding the North Sea incident:
Admiral RojestvenslSF is undoubted-
ly not responsible for the order to
fire, as he had gone ahead with the
first and second fleet.
AS the fleet did not see the lights
of the fishing fleet, the Russians
mistook a rocket fired from one Of
the trawiers for a hostile signal. The
fact that the fleet steamed away
after the firing, is probably due to
the belief that no damage was done.
We are compelled to await news from
st. Petersburg before we can explain
the matter fully. No news has yet
arrived"
