The agricultural output Of
North Dakota last year was
about $500 for every man, wo-
man and child in the state-a-
bout one dollar a day for each.
Where is there another state in
the union where such q record
can be produced?
.Cucumbers, melons, squashes
and tomatoes may be greatly
helped by making a box nine in
ches in height, Just large enough
to take a lOx12 light Of window
glass and with no bottom. The
plants referred to can be thus
grown sale from frost and bugs
and made to get a. two weeks
start OF such things planted in
the usual manner.
A COW has been made to give
enough milk to make 1000
pounds OF butter in a year, and
a hen has been made to lay $50
eggs in one year. These records
mark the limits OF productive
ness. Under natural conditions
the cow would give just enough
milk to raise her calf, while the
hen would lay but one setting of
eggs. The difference marks what
man has been able to with the
COW and the hen.
If it is a mans duty to work
hard to provide the food for, his
family it is equally the wife's
duty to study how to prepare
and serve such food in the best
possible manner. If nine women
out of ten would devote the time
and money now spent on music
in learning how to be expert
cooks, the world would be hap
pier and there would be fewer
divorces and smaller doctors
bills.

WILD MEN OF AUSTRALIA.
nm Aboriginal Dwelling and a sweet
but Uninviting Dish.


An explorer in the wilds of northern
Australia writes: while at work one
day Mr.. Kingston found an aboriginal
dwelling which revealed evidences of
architectural design seldom displayed
by Australian aborigines. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY main camping depot, oval In
shape, about sixteen feet long and four
teen feet high. 1t was built Of layers
Of straw intermixed with good stiff
clay. Small openings as windows were
numerous all round the sides. The
door was the only drawback. This
was a mere burrow hole about one foot
from the ground, and one was COM
PEELED to crawl In on all fours to enter
this primitive type Of mansion. When
we cleared the river we anchored at
Maria island. Seeing some Of the
blacks on the beach we went to inter
view them. They were apparently
frightened, however, and abandoned
the canoes ON which they were at work
and cleared into the bush. Care was
taken not to interfere with their pos
sessions. and pipes and tobacco were
left where the natives could fnd them.
Rambling about we came upon an open
space Of considerable extent marked
out. In large squares with stone, on
which were planted, three to FIVE feet
were stuffed full of human bones. All
the posts were painted red. We doubt
less had stumbled upon a sacred spot
There were some nice skulls, but not
q thing was interfered with.
"a few miles up the river we struck
a big camp of natives, but they cleared
into the bush as soon as they caught
sight of us. We waited some time at
the camp, and the blacks returned, sat
isfied that we did not intend mischief.
The usual presents Of tobacco and pipes
were given. and they were received
with the greatest satisfaction. Indeed,
we became perfect friends for the time
being To seal the friendship, or, per-
chance, 1t may have been the native

After sucking 1t dry he put 1t back into
the honey, and when nicely soaked Of
fered 1t to me again. He evidently
wished me to follow his example, but
