The reading of the minutes
was dispensed with.
A committee from ROyville,
composed of DR.. Young, Messrs.
Theall, Dyer. Overton Cade,
Dominique Landry, DR.. Duplex,
and the Rev. Father Roguet,
appeared before the Board and
proposed to raise funds for
building and furnishing the
school house at Royville and to
turn j. over to the School Board
as public school property. The
money is to be loaned without
interest. In consideration of
the above proposition the School
Board adopted the following
resolutions on motion of Mr..
Roy.
Whereas, the demand for new
and larger school houses is far
in advance of the collection of the
special tax dedicated to that
purpose, and the School Board
is without means to supply the
demand for school houses as
rapidly as increasing attendance
and other conditions make it
desirable to do, and
Whereas the following citizens
residing in the 4th Ward of the
Parish have rendered to the
School Board the use, for al
term OF two years, without
interest, of the necessary funds
TO construct and furnish a mod.
ern school building in the town

This was in flowing tide. and
they came into the inlet itself describ
Ing sort of cycloidal curves until the
lnshore part of the squadron took on
kelp reef. Then Il sudden pause
seemed to seize them all. and the un
fortunate animals went up the inlet
full speed. with the sea boiling In
upon them and great wave coming
after them. and they piled up in nun
dreds on the beach Then. as there
was a rising tide. they got Off again
but only to charge the opposite beach
and this continued till the following
tide and loss of strength left them
high and dry all round the drcary
bay.
Very few, old or young, lived more
than a quarter of an hour after their
final strandine. Some died quietly
others beat the sand and water Will
their tails, dyeing the water with
their blood. BY evening. after the
tide had ebbed, there were only hv'
whales afloat out of the more than
500 that had come into the inlet sc
majestically that morning.
Next day only three were to he

and then, as If disdnining to live

The Shortage of Sheep.

Michigan sheep and lamb feeders
find themselves up against peculiar
situation. and many of them are at Il
loss how to proceed says writer in
the Detroit Tribune. There are many
feeders who We're of opinion that re-
ceipts of Western sheep at Chicago
would be larger late in the season and
have waited in the belief that they
would be able to get their orders filled
at lower prices. Present indications
look as if there would be few of the
bargains that have been offered In 9th
er years.
Never before in the history of the
Chicago yards has there been such Il
pressing demand for feeding sheep and
lambs. Every day now the sheep pens
are full of strangers who are looking
for bargains, and every desirable
bunch is caught up at high prices COM
pared with other years. The outlook
for wool and mutton was never bright
er than at present, and the general be-
lief is that sheep and lamb feeders
will make plenty of money this year,
no matter what they pay for feeding
stock"

Cost of Making Reef.

II has been accepted as proved that
the younger an animal the lower is
the cost Of putting on flesh and fat.
Some experiments have been made to
prove this. but the data are too mea-

strong arguments on them. Professor
Mumford of the Illinois station has
taken up the question and is making
an experiment that will at least add
10 the volume OF the data IL II does
not settle the question. which 1t prob
ably will not. Herds of various ages
are being fed nj the station, and these
will be marketed Ms fast as ready and

point beyond which IL does not pay a
farmer 10 keep an animal, even
though that animal Is all the time
gaining In weight. The station is try

feeding must stop. II profit IL Ia be

This Years Wheat Crop.

Another bumper wheat crop Is In
prospect. Estimates by the Depart

field indicate total yield Of winter
wheat of over 411,O0OOOO bushels
against 4Ol 49,. SS7 in 1903 and 800
314. 5O3 in 1904: a gain of 1O,3l4,1 13
bushels over 1903 and 1925, 497 bush
els over 1904. The estimate on spring
wheat is 3IS.OOO.OOO bushels, but there
are good reasons for believing that
the yield will be from 100000 to
15.0O0.00O bushels greater than the
present estimate. However, the COM
parlson, accepting the estimate as
correct. is interesting. showing an ex-

How Sunday Affects the Cows.

The manager Of the Wisconsin ex
detrimental farm once said that he
could tell the Sundays in the calendar
by looking at his milk record, which
showed the daily yield, because the
quantity obtained was invariably
smaller than on week day "Our
men milk a little later on Sunday
morning, and little earlier at night,
probably hurrying the operation, and
the cows resent the treatment by CIV
ing somewhat smaller yield of
milk" 1t was observed, also, apropos
of the necessity for kind and gentle
treatment Of dairy cattle, that q new
hand obtained less milk from a COW
than she would yield to mixer, not
necessarily more expert, to whom she
was accustomed.

Sod Houses and Telenhon.s

Sod houses and telephones are the
strange combination now offered by
the prairies of the Middle West. Yet
the combination is less strange than
appears, for the present sod houses
are by no means to be despised, par
tlcularly in cold weather. They are
built with considerable attention to
comfort. and, with an interior lining
OF Portland cement. offer almost the
advantages OF stone building. and
at the slightest cost. while the net
work OF telephones overcomes the iso-
lation of earlier days.

fails so frequently is because the
ground is stirred shallow and wet ear

weeks of dry weaother come it bakes
as hard as the road and remains in
