Strip Naked on Ice Flee.

Some idea Of the daily perils sur
rounding the life of the Labrador seal
er may be gained from the following
extract of an article "On the Floes with
a Hair Sealer," by p. Il. McGrath, in
the December Technical World Maya
zine:
when besieged by storms, belated
by fogs, or benumbed by frosts, their
splendid physique stands them in good
Stead, for they can ndure h~ardships
Under which almost any other men
Would succumb, but they must labor
without ceaSing or become chilled and
helpless, as they have to go lightly clad
SO that they may not be numbered in
their progress over the foes. When
they fall through the ice and are i'm
plersed, they strip naked on the ice
and wiring the water from their drip
ping garments, donning these again
then and trusting to the natural heat
OF the body to complete the process.
When a blizzard besets them they con-
trive shelters OF blocks of ice where
possible. or cover themselves, If they
can, with freshly killed seals, the in
herent warmth of which helps to pre-
serve their extremities against the
deadly frostbite. If neither e~xpedient
is available they simply ace the ordeal
as best they can, exercising themselves
constantly to keep themselves in q
glow, for with rest or exhaustion comes
the deadly stupor that is the special
dread Of all arctic travelers--the sleep
from which they never wake"

Tuskegee's First Quarter Centennial
From the Chicago Tribune.


Booker r.. Washington's Tuskegee Insti-
tute gave instruction in its normal and In
dustrial departments to 1,504 students last
year. 1t had about 800 other students en-
rolled. Its current expenses were 1892, 152,
or a little over 500 per capita. The cost
on the basis of average attendance was
only Sal per capita. With such a modest
expenditure the institute is not merely
making good. s~elf-supporting citizens out
of negro young folks, but sending out into
the world graduates by the hundreds. all
OF whom are active agents in elevating
their race, wherever 1t may be they chance
to settle.
Toward the expenses the interest on en-
dowment provided $4,000, contributions
from general education boards and from
the state of Alabama amounted to S2S, 900,
and student entrance fees amounted to
1880. All the rest of the necessary mon
ey, or almost two-thirds Of the total, came
from small donations, from individuals,
Sunday schools, churches and other organ
izations. 1t is certainly regrettable tina SO
important an institution should be depend
ent on transient b~enevolences which need
continuous and sedulous cultivation.
Next spring is of a certainty the time
when the endowment Of he institute. should
be raised from approximately 81, OO0;CO0 to
three times that sum for 1t will be the
time when the school completes its first
quarter-century Of existence. A celebra-
ton Of the event is under consideration by
the trustees, and it Will be primarily de-
signed to display the achievements Of Tus-
llegee and Of other minor educational in,
stitutions for the negroes.

WARM FOOD FOR cows.

other laxative is used in connection with
it, 1t is often advantageous to moisten

WINTER FEEDING OF TIE COW.
Many farmers treat their COWS during
the winter as they do their horses who are
not working; that is, they give them just
enough food to keep lie in them untiIhthey
can be put out to p2ature again. T!3ey
argue hat they can dispose of milk to
much better advantage u the summer'Rnd
that if they have too much milk in winter
they will have to make more butter than
they wish to. That's a lazy mans way of
doing business. If 1t is not desired that
the COWS give large Quantities Of milk
during the winter the ration may be
changed or even reduced somewhat but, 1t
cannot be lacking in the essentials which
the cow requires to keep up her warmth
of body and vitality without lasting injury
to the animal. Let the ration contain a
fair amount of protein and'be in sufficient
variety to keep the COW in good condition
no matter how little milk satisfies you.
PASTURING SWINE ON CLOVER.
This is a question where the value Of the
clover has to be considered and a safe
rule to work out is. to keep the hogs out, Of
the clover at all times until, in the course
Of the rotation, the clover is to be plowed
under the following spring; in that event
let the swine get all the good they can out
of such pasture. 1t Is not an easy task to
bring hogs up on pastures of clover with
out injury to the soil or without any
particular profit. If the clover fields well
set and the first seasons growth Is strong,
yielding a good harvest, the hogs will ben
eft the ground if they are turned onto the
clover the fall and winter before it is to be
turned under.

UPBUlLD THE NAVY.
Only Way in Which to Insure Peace,
Says Admiral Coehlan.

Rear Admiral Coghlan spoke at the
recent banquet given by the Empire
State society of the Sons of the Amer
lean Revolution. He did not begin his
remarks until after President Roose
welt had left the room to begin his
return journey TO Washington. He
| followed the lines of the chief exec.
utive's appeal for an upbuilding of the
navy, high standing of its personnel
and his appeal that all should study
the lessons of the revolutionary war,
the war of 1912 and the Mexican war,
and carry out the policies that won
victory then, at the same time avoiding
the defects which brought defeat.
The president took all the wind out
of my sails" said the admiral How
ever, let me begin with the old adage,
In time of peace, prepare for war.
The president spoke of having some
40 ships. AS matter OF fact, we will
have only q ships by next spring,
when the new ones are completed,
to defend the country. We shall have
some II armored cruisers, but these
can not be called battleships.
I'm 1908 we will need some IS 900
enlisted men in the navy, and we will
have to try to get the best men. We
must be prepared. Our losses in the
Spanish war, though few were the re-
suit of unpreparedness. We have had
good results, indeed, but we cant be
sure that those results will always
follow. We must build up our navy
uniformly and rapidly. Our personnel
is improving very rapidly, and at pres
ent is equal if not superior to any ma
Wy. You hear good deal about de-
serti0ns from the navy. Let me say
that last year less than 8 per cent

the servants department, chiefly for
eigners, of whom we hope to get rid
Now 80 per cent of all enlisted men

PEACE TALK is STRONG.
Ministers of the Gar Urge That War
Be Ended.

While Emperor Nicholas, whose
word is final, still declines to abandon
the prosecution of the war, and the
government maintains it's ability to
conflict, the Associated Press is in a
position to state that powerful influ-
ences, including several of the emper-
or's own ministers, are now strongly
urging that the time has come to in
dictate to Japan Russia's desire for
peace upon a reasonable basis. Should
Japan then attempt to impose too enor-
nous conditions, these influences
argue that, in view of the universal
wish to see the bloody conflict ended,
Russia's position will be strengthened
abroad by the alienation of sympathy
from Japan and the situation at home
improved when the nation is made to
understand that the emperor's pacific
proposals have been met with impos-
sible terms.

City of Muk den.

Mukden, into which the victorious
Japanese hosts have marched is
known as China's Sacred City" the
cradle of the Manchu race. which has
given the present dynasty to the
throne of China. 1t is the capital of
Liaotung, one of the three provinces
of Manchuria, and is situated on the
River Hun, about 500 miles northeast
of Picking. Without it's walls lie, bur-
led in magnificent tombs, the first en-
perors of the imperial line, and with
in, at the heart of the city, is a small
palace in which is said to be concealed
enormous wealth, accumulated by sue
cessive emperors during a period of
200 years.
Mukden is a busy, thriving city of
100000 inhabitants. 1t is believed to
have existed on it's present site 5000
years, but it never attained importance
until the Manchu kings made it their
capital in 1880. Two hundred or more
years ago it was known by the name
of Sinyang, the name of Mukden being
conferred by its Manchu conquerors.
