A Pair Of "Butes. :"

What is supposed to be the largest
pair Of shoes ever made in this country
was turned out recently in a Nashua
shoe factory, says the Boston Globe.
The size of these shoes may well be
imagined when it is known that the
weight is eighteen pounds for the pair.
Eacr shoe is twenty-three inches long
and seven and one-half inches wide in
the widest place.
Every detail is as carefully attended
to as in an ordinary frstelass shoe, but
because of the enormous size is re-
quired several weeks TO turn them out.
Special lasts were made, and nearly
all of the work, except the stitching,
which was done by the usual maehn-
essarily done by hand.
The vamp of the shoes is made of
the leather known TO shoe men as
satin, and the tops are Of calf. The
sole and heel are of the best quality
of sole leather. On this part Of the
shoes considerable work was neeessa-
ry, as all Of the railroading on the ex'
tension sole was done by hand, and the
freeing and polishing was also nee
essarily dOns by hand.
AS near as can be figured the size
of the shoes is 40 as compared with
the average ordinary mans shoe The
entire cost Of manufacturing them was
about $50. They were made for ne
eress who lives near Atlanta, who IS
known for many miles because Of the
size of her feet.

DESERT SHEEP HERDERs.
Their Lonely, Dreary Life Tends to
Drive Them Crazy.

Do you realize what IL means TO
watch 5000 sheep alone in the desert 7
You have read wierd, grewsome stories

keepers life, but compared to the days
Of the Mexican shepard those Of the
average keeper Of the light are filed
with gayety and noise. Even with
their one or two dogs the shepherds

company of their shaggy eOllies the
lunaey among them would rise to an
almost incredible percentage, IL we are
TO believe those who have followed the
sheep in the desert and therefore may
be supposed TO know.
Once in old Santa Fe, N. NJ, met
man who for twelve years had follow
ed the sheep. His work was done. All
day long he sat in a chair in the rear
Of a little dobe store, erouehed over,
gibbering to himself, bleating-an
idiot. He still saw his sheep swaying
like a great white wave among the
sage brush, and ever in his ears sound
ed the killing monotone of their bleats
One boy, though fifteen years Of age
is mentally no further advanced than
the average child of hve. His father
is Shepherd, his mother died when he
was four years old, and his father took
him out upon the rauge. All his life
has been spent among the sheep. He
is one Of them today.
Hw is il possible, then, you2ask, that
men are to be found willing to watch
themI 1t is very easy. Sheep herd !
ing is lazy job at best, and the
" "greaser" is the LATEST creature on
earth. For 92O a month he is willing
to sit in the sand and listen to the
never ending bleating until the little
mind he has give way and they fetch
him in from the range insane. He is
glad TO take the chance for $50 a
month.

professor, i'll Of consumption, under.
took 10 follow 5000 bleaters for the
summer. In the autumn they found

among the sheep, bleating with them.

hear no sound save the steady "Baa,

as the Chinese criminal Of ancient
days was affected by the regular tap,

And yet so long as the desert con.
tinues to provide food for the "bleat.
ers" so long will shepherds 90 mad

deserts greatest value to man has
been the food IL has offered the sheep,

these lands, with the exception Of the
acreage now held in private owner
ship, will be subject to homestead en-
try when thoroughly drained and
ready for cultivation.
A greater part of the area, 10000
acres, under the klamath project, will
be irrigated with water drawn from
Upper klamath lake, a naturel and in
exhaustible reservoir. No storage dam
is required here, the lake having suf'
fciently higher elevation than the
lands to be watered. About 10000
acres will be watered from Clear lake
in California, or from Horsehy reser'
vor, situated in Oregon.
OF the now dry lands under the pro-
ieet only few thousand acres are
public lands The greater part Of the
lands in private ownership is held in
large tracts, and, under the provisions
of the reclamation act, those lands
must be sold in small lots, as one per-
SON can purchase water for no more
than 100 acres. The klamath Water
Users Association, corporation Of
landowners with a capital of $1,000
