GREATEST OF WATERWORkS
Croton Dam, Largest Piece of Ma
sonry of Modern Time.


New York, Feb. 2.-After 10 years
of labor and the expenditure of $9,000,-
900. the new Cornell dam, near Croton-
on-Hudson, in Westchester county,
from which this city will draw largely
for its water supply, has been practical
ly completed. It is the largest piece of
masonry in the world, except the Pyra-
mids of Egypt. The food gates have
been shut down for the first time and
the dam has begun to fill with water.
It is estimated by the engineers that
it will require about two years to fill.
When the water reaches the base of its
coping it will make a lake Is miles
long. The water will rise 80 feet above
the old dam. The new dam will hold
80, 900, 900, 900 gallons of water. Half
dozen towns which occupied the site
were abandoned.

Cannot Depend on Troops.

Berlin, Feb. 6.-German military ex-
perts familiar with the inner conitions
of the Russian army declare that the
autocracy cannot depend on the loyalty
of any of the troops outside of the few
regiments serving as bodyguards to the
czar and the grand dukes. Military
men here, in the light of history and
tradition, therefore, regard the recent
mutiny of soldiers and marines at Sc
vastopol as the most dangerous event of
all the recent turmoil in Russia.

Stirring Cooking Food.

Where more or less food for stock
is cooked, some handy way OF stirring
it ought to be devised. OF course, the
old-fashioned ladle, or the great wood
en- spoon, is always available, but il
the quantity is large, to. use these in
struments means aching arms and
shoulders. A stirrer which will save
much labor is readily made in the fol-
lowing manner. Make a shaft of a
strip Of wood two inches thick and
long enough SO that it will extend
three or four inches above the top of
the kettle. At the bottom of this shaft
make paddles by crossing two thin
boards two or three inches wide.
Fasten a crank to the top of the
shaft and to this crank fasten a pole,
or not, as preferred. Then prepare a
strip of board six or eight inches wide,
bore a hole through the middle,
through which to pass the shaft

Test of Submarine Boat.

Newport News, Va, Feb. with
representatives of the Argentine repub-
lie and British governments, among
others, on board the submarine boat
Simon Lake "X" today was submerged
3S feet and returned to the surface, in
80 seconds. This cuts in half the rec
ord held by the French type of subma-
rine, which is one minute. Another
record was broken in filling the ballast
tanks for the submergence. The tanks
were filed in 91s minutes, the best
previous time being Is minutes, made
by French submarine.

Der of cabs, wagons, ETC., the ice at
that point being weak. The greatest
excitement prevailed, but speedily
help was forthcoming, and the victims
were rescued, with the exception of one
dragon.

AMERICAN BEEF TOO HIGH.
That is Why Army in Philippines is
Supplied. from Abroad.

Washington, Feb. 2. - Senator An
keny today called on the quartermaster
general to ascertain why all army beef
for the Philippines is purchased either
in Argentina or Australia, to the ex-
clusion of American beef. He was told
that the government can get Argentina
or Australian beef delivered at Manila
for 6% cents pound, far below the
price at which any American dealers
will agree to deliver it. The war de-
partment says that, until congress
passes law requiring the purchase OF
American meats, it will continue to
supply the Philippines at the lowest
price obtainable.

ings against the Individual members oi

lnatch both ends to fit over the handle
of the kettle and at one end fix a
slide and a set screw to bold it in
place. If the cooking of the food
for stock is done away from the
house, as it ought to be, one should
build fireplace of bricks and cement
in which to set the kettle. The illus
tration shows both the fireplace, or
pot, as suggested, and the plan for
making the stirrer and it will be seen
that it is comparatively easy to ar
range the device as uggested-lndian-

Washington, Feb. 2.-The weather
bureau s summary of crop conditions for
the month of January, 1905, says: In
the Rocky mountain region and to the
westward the temperature was milder
than usual, with more than the average
precipitation in the southern plateau
region and Southern California, and
much less than average precipitation,
as a whole. On the North Pacific coast
the winter wheat outlook is favorable,
except late sown in Washington.

Color of Honey,

The color of honey varies greatly,
ranging from water white to a very
dark brown. The bees themselves
have no control in regula ting the color
of honey; in fact, it seems to make no
difference at all to them whether it is
light or dark, as there is plenty of it.
Light honey is not always the best in
flavor, though it does always bring the
highest price. Light-colored honey is
gathered from such flowers as clover,
bass-woodi and mountain sage, while
the dark is gathered from buckwheat,

This will make it easier to insert
the handle firmly and will make the

ton shows clearly how this block Of
wood should be formed and the handle
inserted to get the best results.

DEAD IN HEAPS.
Warsaw Streets Full of Human Bodies
as Result Of Battle.

Warsaw, Feb. l. = More blood has
been shed in the streets of Warsaw
during Tuesday and early Wednesday
morning. The number of strikers is
increasing, and conditions throughout
the city are fast becoming chaotic.
The worst disturbances occurred in
the suburbs, while the city proper was
somewhat more quiet.
Many streets in the city proper are
like chanel houses. In some disticts
the dead lie in heaps, as it has been
impossible to bury them all. Author
ities admit that at least 700 corpses
are still in the streets. They are pu-
trefying fast, and in some quarters the
stencil is becoming unbearable.

From Grass to Dry Feed.

From Grass to Dry Feed.
Changing farm animals from grass
to dry feed Is a critical time in the
fattening period. While the stomach
of critter is able to withstand con-
siderable i'll treatment without caus-
ing death, yet at the same time sud-
den changes in the ration may great
ly interfere with his general thrift.
The secret of success in making the
change is to do it SO gradually that
the system will not be deranged. A
little dry feed should be given at first,
this being gradually increased until
the animals become thoroughly accus-
toned to it. 1t is better If animals
may have access to old grass for sew
eral weeks after they are placed on
dry feed. Some adopt the practice OF
hauling a little hay to the pastures
late in the fall, and claim that this
bridges over the change period in a
most satisfactory manner. In making
the change it is better to underfeed
during the first week or two rather
than overfeed, because it may take
months to correct the injurious result
| Of overfeeding at such time. There
are those who make the claim that
| an animal overfed at any period Of it's
existence will never completely recov-
er, but will appear more or less stunt
ed even up to the time it goes to the
block as a fat animal. Where fatten-
ing animals have had considerable
range it is a great mistake to confine
them in close yards suddenly, because
they will fret considerably and may
refuse to make gains for several
weeks.-Iowa Homestead.

We know Of no way Of making dark
