The Verdict.

Records of the ancient city Of Cor
1eana, founded in 1910, better known
At the present time as York Harbor.
Me-, contain many quaint and unusual
stories Of the early life Of the town.
At the entrance to York harbor a
bold promontory known as Stage neck
extends some distance into the sea,
from which formerly In stormy wealth
or temporary light in the form Of q
lantern holsted upon an upright pole
was displayed as a warning to mari,
ners.
One dark winter night sloop was
wrecked on these rocks A survivor on
being questioned about the catastrophe
said.
The vessel struck, turned over on
her side, and the skipper and another
barrel OF whisky rolled overheard"
The local coroner was summoned,
and this somewhat startling verdict
was returned:
I'VE find that the deceased fell from
the masthead and was killed. He
rolled overheard and was drowned. He
6oated ashore and froze to death, and
the rats eat him up allve!'-Harper's

Improving Harney Horse Stock.

The scrub horses that have 50 long
roamed the bunchgrass hills of Har-
ney county are disappearing and be-
ing replaced with much better grade
of stock. The fair prices offered ror
small stuff the past few years has
made il possible to get rid of this
class Of horses at a profit and enabled
the horse men to bring in new blood.
A number of fine stations have been
purchased by local stockmen this
season. Some of these animals are
imported and represent the best
strains to be found on the continent.
The horse market is quite brisk at
this time, a number of outside buyers
being in this field, paying what must
be satisfactory prices. many horses
are being sold and the supply is be-
coming more limited.-Burns Times

Lob.tsr Mortality HiEh.

A lobster lays thousands Of eggs,
most Of which hatch, but few ever live
to grow up. This is not the fault Of
the mother, for she carries them about
with her for nearly year and with
admirable instinct guards them as she
does her own life. When the young
are set free her duty is done, for they
must then shift for themselves. Though
hardly larger than mosquitoes, being
about one-thlrd of an inch long, the
little ones leave their parents on the
bottom and swim toward the llght-to
the surface, where from one to two
months, il fortune favors them, they
lead free, rowing life. The open sea
Is a poor nursery for such weaklings,
which become the sport Of every storm
and the prey Of numberless hungry
mouths. Out OF brood of 10000 1t

one or two Holsters to reach maturity

A LETTER TO HIS HOME PAPER.
/. Gebhart of Dexter Writes of the
Pecos Valley.

From Harper, (Kan..) Advocate.
Think of a country that will pro-
duce five cuttings of alfalfa hay in
one season, averaging five to six tons
per acre. and selling at $500 per ton.
This was q new proposition to me,
as 1 never had any experience with
alfalfa before, but 1 am fully convin-
ced that it is the est paying crop
that can be crown anywhere; costing
less to handle than any other product.
The remarkable development in the
west of the species of hay known as
alfalfa has contributed largely to the
prosperous development of these re
gions. It seems but fair to say that al
falfa is the best hay r in the world
In summary. 1 want to say that
there are great opportunities here,
and that they have the three essential
elements to make this valley an ideal
spot-climate. soil and water. The
climatic conditions with reference to
agriculture are especially inviting.
