TELEPHONE ON THE CONGO.
Impossible to Talk During Middle of
the Day in Rainy Season.

the Day in Rainy Season.
The telegraph and telephone lines of
the Belgium Congo region show how
some peculiarities both in the con-
struction of the lines and their opera
ton, owing to the climate and the
character of the country.
Where the line runs through the for
ests the wires are placed as much as
possible upon trees and in other cases
upon iron poles, says the Scientific
American The wire, which Is of
phosphor- bronze. Is painted black, so
as not to attract the attention of the
natives, who lay hands upon all the
copper they can find.
The other brilliant objects of the
line. such as the insulatorS, are also
painted black A cutting thirty feet
wide is made through the forest for
the line, so that there is no risk OF fire
or from falling trees.
Besides the telegraph Offices OF Leo
poldville, Kwamouth and Coqulthat-
Vile, there are nine telephone offices
and six cabins. The latter are used for
communicating with the STEAMBOATS,
OIL the river.
The first hours after sunset are the
best for telephoning, and it Is possible
TO telephone direct from Matada to
Kwamouth, or $50 miles. From the
latter point to Bonia, or 40 miles, the
voice still heard.
After 10 O'Clock a. m. the heat
makes it impossible to use the tele-
phone, especially in the rainy season.
This IS due to the fact that return
wire is not used, and the use OF the
Garth return is accompanied by great
disturbances In the middle or TIE
day.
The greatest enemies of the tele-
nbone lines are the wild animals In
tho rainy season atmospheric dis.
charges often strike the wires there
fore the lines need to be constantly
inspected and repaired.

Not All Love.

When the average young couple get
married they start out on the false
assumption that love is habit, like
the dope habit, that nothing will
break up, and they will never want
any other amusement in life more
thrilling than holding each others
hands.
This is a mistake. You can tire Of
squeezing the most lily white hand IN
mighty short order, and even the
diversion of gazing into anothers
ewes pals upon you pretty soon,
when it is always the same eyes. 1t
is then up to both husband and wife
to keep things moving if they want
to be happy.
Nothing is going to happen OF itself
If the woman wants to keep he1
husband interested she has got to
make a home for him that is COM
Portable, attractive and cheerful
When you hear a man say that ne
had rather go home to dinner than
eat at a fashionable restaurant, it is
a certificate of domestic happiness so
strong that you could draw money on
1t at the bank.
If she wants to make married life
interesting for her husband a woman
must keep up the charm and allure
ment with which she caught him.
Even the recording angel must
wink at the peccadilloes of the man
who has to go home at night to a

Variety in Food.

The idea that small chicks should be
confined to one sort Of grain Is wrong;
Of course, during the first day or two,
or even the first week, when they are
fed on oatmeal, this suffices, but as
they grow, variety becomes necessary,
and not only variety in grain, but In
green food and meat scraps. True.
the baby chicks should not be fed
much In the way of animal food until
they are large enough to hunt insects
on the range, but little of it will
do them good.
After the chick gets beyond the oat-
meal age there Is no better plan of
feeding than to have the several
grains mixed, but seeing to it that the
kernels are very small, so that the
chick can handle it. In the matter of
green food, raw potato chopped fine,
an occasional onion, carrot or even a
few cabbage leaves, will supply the
needs In this direction. Don't coddle
the baby chicks and try to bring them
ap on mush, nor on the other hand, do
not think they can be kept healthy and
growing without considerable care in
feeding.

MO1es.


The Kansas Agricultural College has
just issued a newspaper bulletin on
moles. 1t says, greatly condensed:
"Moles have few natural enemies, as
they seldom come to the surface.
Their food consists chiefly Of earth
worms and insects that live in the
ground, and the presence of moles in
large numbers is evidence of the album
dance Of their food. They destroy
noxious insects in great numbers, es-
pecially the grub worm or May beetle
larva, and were it not for the damage
they do to lawns and crops by throw
ing up their ridges, they would be-
more beneficial than harmful. They
seldom eat grains Of newly planted
corn. This Is done principally by field
mice that follow them. In killing them
by poison the best method was to pol
son green corn lin the roasting ear
stage) with strychnine and placing it
in their burrows. Unroasted peanut
kernels, poisoned, were also quite sue
cessful. as was shelled corn soaked
in syrup and strychnine. Bits Of meat
and dead insects, poisoned, have been
used successfully, but there is more
danger of poisoning dogs when meat is
used. as the burrows lie close to the
surface.
Traps for catching moles are sold
in most of the hardware stores. Near
" all of them work by the use Of
spring coil, which, when released,
drives a number of sharp tines into
the ground and through the mole.
Some experience tn setting these traps
will lead to the best results; but trap
ping Is a much slower process than
poisoning.
Moles are usually actively at work
in the early morning or late in the
afternoon. At times there is also n
short period of activity about noon
It is not difficult to kill them with n
pitchfork when they are working, the
animals being located by observing the
movement of the ground above them.
II water Is allowed TO run into the
burrow and I'LL 1t, the animal, when
present. can be forced to come to the
surface to avoid drowning and may be
easily killed. The writer, at one time,
killed a female and six young at one
such operation The best remedy for
the damage done to lawns and grass
plots by moles Is prompt rolling with
heavy roller. By continual repeti-
ton of this the moles will be driven
away, at least temporarily.

ishing feed of oats. There is no
surer way of generating an attack of
collie than this, the reason being that
when a large quantity of water is
thus imbibed it has the effect Of car
rying with it out Of the stomach and
into the intestines some of the fresh
~ eaten grain. This grain being still
in raw and undigested condition, its
effect when it reaches the intesdens
is to give rise to Mritat ion and infiam-
nation which are the immediate cause
Of the collie. In dealing with cases
to adopt is to take precautions to pre-
vent the animals from drinking large
quantities of water under the circum-
stances just referred to. When an ami
NAL falls victim to an attack OF
collie, the best thing to do is to adj
minister a dose consisting of one ounce
of laudanum and two ounces of sweet
spirits of nitre, along with half pint
Of whisky in some hot water. Very
often simple cases OF collie yield to
the administration Of a couple OF
ounces of cooking soda, diluted with
water and given as soon as the first
symptoms of the attacks are noticed.
Should the administration of this cook
ing soda fail to give the desired re-
lief, no time should be lost in follow
ing 1t up with the laudanum and spir-
it's of ndtre already suggested.

Wheat Straw as Feed.

An Iowa farmer says in farm ex-
change: We were unlucky enough to
sow some of the so-called Northern
wheat sold by our local miller here
last spring, and like all my neighbors
who did likewise had to put up with
crop Of rusty straw and two or four
bushels Of chicken feed per acre.
When we thrashed we put this rusty
straw in the bottom of the straw stack,
thinking it Of no value except for ma
nure. There was only about four
acres of it, and we thought to use it
to keep the good straw from the native
wheat, which was nice and bright, off
the ground. Now we are very much
surprised to find the cattle eating the
very bottom out from under the straw
stack. They get down on their knees
and reach as far as their necks will
stretch for a bite of that rusty straw;
and the stack is about ready to tum-
BILE. The bright straw that looked so
nice to us don't seem to have any at
traction for them. They leave good
corn fodder half cleaned up to rubber
for that rusty straw. Prairie hay
don't seem to be any better to them
and 1t looks as though | will have to
fence that stray stack to keep them
from getting killed when it falls This
confirms in a convincing way the re-
port recently published in Wallace's
Farmer of the analysis OF bright and
rusty wheat straw in which 1t was
shown that the rusty straw contained
the most nourishment. This is also
another proof that cattle are pretty
good chemists and often know better
than their owners what is best for
them.
