PEARYS NEW VESSEL.
Ship Which Will Sail in Quest of the


Ship Which Will Sail in Quest of the
North Pole.
A vessel is being built in the old
yard upon Verona Island, off the coast
of Maine, which is not destined for
purposes of trade. She is to force her
way as far as possible into the ice
covered seas of the far north, carry
Ing Lieutenant Commander Peary in
order that he may make another dash
for tie pole. In the Peary ship, the
stern, stern-post, keels, keelson and
frames are Of carefully selected white
oak. The massive frames will be only
two feet apart from center to center,
and they will be enclosed in a cage of
steel made of diagonal straps and COW
ering the inner fabric of the ship from
stem to stern. Over the straps will be
a double course of five-inch planking
of yellow pine and white oak, and be-
tween these two courses will be tarred
hemp or tarred canvas.
A guard strake of white oak sur
rounds the vessel at the level of the
main deck, projecting outward for
such a distance that when the ice
presses against her sides and is forced
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1904-12-13

upward by the resistance, the ship
will actually rest upon the guard
strake. More than that, should she be
frozen in, it would be possible to break
the grip of the ice by the use of by
draulic jacks placed under the strake.
Naturally, so important a part of the
vessels protection is securely fastened
to the hull and in addition it is
strengthened by an angle bar of steel
on its under side.
The interior of the ship will be al
most completely filed with heavy tim
bers. Starting at the center of the
decks, these braces will extend dag
onally downwards and outwards, the
lower ends resting against the frames
and helping them to withstand the
pressure of the ice. With hull thus
filed with timbers, provision must be
made for living quarters above decks
and here there will be two houses, so
constructed that they may be removed
and set up on shore. For the rest, the
vessel will be rugged as three-masted
schooner with an exceptionally large
spread of canvas and viii also be pro-
vided with steam power. She will be
of about 1000 tons and viii be ready
for service early next summer. 1t is
the explorers plan to go in the vessel
to the northern shore of Grant land
winter there and make his dash for the
pole during the following summer.

Progressive Farming I'm Norm.
Cultivation of strawberrie..

III little or no work was done in the
strawberry beds after fruiting, they
are not in good condition to go through
the winter, provided one expects
proper crop next season. If the plants
have made good growth, the space
between the rows is pretty well filed
with new plants OF course, if the
plantation is conducted on the matted
row plan these runners are good up to
the place where the rows have spaces
between, and it is just these rows that
need attention this fall. Get out the
cultivator and run it through these
rows several times If the work tears
up many young plants; it will also
clean out the weeds, and one can az
ford to lose a few plants If by that
means one gets rid of the weeds. 1t
will not hurt to sun the cultivator
through these spaces several times be-
fore the ground freezes and then the
beds will be in good shape for the
mulch which may be put on in the
late winter or early spring, according
to how much protection the plants
need. If only to keep them from heav-
ing out by the action Of the frost, do
not pat the mulch on until about a
month before the ground is likely to
break up. Try this plan of fall clean
ing up and see the crop of berries next

Science in cheesemaking.


There are few operations in the
handling Of dairy products that re-
quire more thought, information and
dexterity than the making Of cheese.
Difficult as is the making of good but
ter, its processes are not so intricate
as are those of the making Of cheese.
This will account for the decadence OF
cheesemaking on the farm and its rel
egation to the factories. The making
of good cheese is an accident or a sci
ence. Much Of the good cheese that
comes to our tables is CT the Arst class.
All shor.d be Of the latter class. That
accident has been an important factor
in the past is easily understood when
we consider the great variation in the
qualify Of tine milk delivered 10 the
factories and the little knowledge that
has been possessed in the past Of the
action of rennets and the effects OF
temperatures both in the making and
ripening Of cheese. The situation is
complicated by the fact that the va
ried tastes OF cheese-eater call for
good many different kinds Of cheese.
one wants a hard cheese, another a
soft cheese. another a milk cheese, an
other one that is sharp, and 50 on. The
cheese that is most in favor at this
time is one that has a clean favor and
is quite hard and rather close in tex
ture. anad has a firm and rich body.
such cheese keers well till year old

Setting Plants,


A gardener says: In setting plants
there are a few points, apparently in
significant but really vital to the well
being Of the plant. Chief among these
is the making up Of the ridge into
which we set the plants some days In
advance Of setting. A row made up
while the ground is damp and rained
on before the plant is set we will find
much more solid than a freshly pre-
pared one. Any pressure on the plant
with the trowel will be doubly effec-
tive in firming the earth around the
roots. Moreover an old ridge will re-
tain its moisture much longer than
fresh one, thus insuring a better stand.
In setting sweet potatoes In a dry time
much good may be attained by sand
ing" the roots. That is, by dipping
the roots in a bucket of water and
then sprinkling dry sandy earth on
them, thus practically giving them
coat of mud Just as they go into the
ground. The benefits of this treatment
are oftentimes decidedly marked. In
this section where large acreages Of
plants are set some are using auto
matte settlers We have used a trans
planter with entire success, The ma
chine sets and waters at one operation.
The water is placed at the roots Of the
plant It's capacity is about $4,000
plants per day ard requires three men
to operate. The strong point in It's
favor is that the water enables you to
set irrespective of weather conditions.

Where the Bad Eggs Go.

A poultry farm, whether ducks,
geese, chickens or turkeys be the spe-
cialty, accumulates a large and malo-
dorous surplus of eggs that refuse to
develop into fowl. The average person
would suppose that if there is any
thing on earth that is utterly worth
less it is rotten egg. Millions of
stale eggs are used every year in pre-
pairing heather dressing for gloves and
bookblnding-an industry that is
largely carried on in the foreign tene-
ment houses of New York and other
large cities. They are also used in
manufacturing dlSinfectants and in the
preparation of shoe backing. and even
the shells are made into fertilizers.
The eggs that have not yet lost their
virtue also have other uses besides the
more col5non ones for culinary pur-
poses. 1t is estimated that fully 55,-
coo. coo dozen are used by wine clari-
fiers. dye manufacturers and in the
preparation OF photographers dry

COL. d. R. ANTHoNYimmersed himseit
in them. He had gone to the West on
peaceful mission, but the invitation
to mix up in the turmoil Of the days
before the Civil War was irresistible.
In the war he was lieutenant colonel
Of a cavalry regiment. He was sta
toned in q camp in Tennessee, and
slaves were constantly coming there
after escaping from their masters.
The Federal officers sent them back,
whereupon Anthony issued an order
that'any officer or soldier arresting or
delivering a fugitive to his master
should be summarily dealt with, ac-
cording to the laws for such crimes.
There were no such laws and
Anthony's superior officers told him so,
but Anthony had his way.

night he made a speech to some bor-
der ruffians, some of whom shot at
him three times as he was going to
bed. He was impenetrable. One day
he went to the Office of Edmund G..
Ross, once a Kansas Senator, who
ran a rival sheet, and beat him with
cane. Shortly afterward he was ac-
cused of numbering Senator Jim Lane
but it was proved that Lane blew his
own brains out. In 1875 he was shot
by printer named Embrey and he
carried the bali to his grave. -Four
years later another printer, Tom
Thurston, shot at him, and when Doc
Jennison found himself criticised for
running gambling place he went
over and put bullet into some of the
Times Office furniture. Anthony re-
turned the compliment, and being a
better shot hit the gambler in the leg.

small paper, called Anthony a coward
The i Ter took a man named Hamer

On the way he met Satterlee and de-
manded a retraction. Both Satterlee
and Anthony instantly drew guns
The first shot from Satterlee's gun
wounded Hamer and the second just
grazed Anthony's flesh. Anthony's
shot took effect in the mans groin and
he died within an hour Anthony was
acquitted. An attempt was made to
prevent his carrying weapons. On che
occasion he was accused of carrying
concealed weapons and the two lead
ing lawyers of the city spent two days
in talking on the prosecution side.
When it came to the defense Anthony
unwrapped the package which was
said to contain a pistol and revealed

peaceable.
