No.. replied Mt HelIman. THE
lands will be purchased in all parts of
the city, to accommodate every one and
meet all tastes. The homes to be erect
ed, according to the plan that we shall
recommend. can also be rented, and
leases can be made. The plan does not
contemplate providing free homes for
any one. On the contrary, ii is pro-
posed that the homes shall be paid for.
but the terms will be made easy to

There are about 20, 600 homeless per

temporarily residing in tents in the
parks or in barracks. Out OF the 10000
probably three fourths viii be able to
support themselves and begin to make
payments for the purposes of acquiring
homes of their own before the plan to
be submitted by this subcommittee can
be made operative. Those who cannot
support themselves must be provided
for in some other way.
There will be plenty of work in San.
Francisco for all who want to work,
and any one who desires to own his
home will be able to secure il on the
plan to be reported. The land, accord
ing to the plan, will be purchased out
right. The use of the public parks for
residence purposes would then be dis
continued as soon as possible"

Feedfng Tankage.

An excellent method of feeding tank
age is to mix it with ground corn or
ground grain of any kind and soak for
a period of about twelve hours. II
mixed with ground corn at the rate Of
n part of tankage to seven or eight
OF corn 1t will make a ration that is as
rich as middlings in flesh forming CON
stituents and one that is cheaper, con
sidering the present price of mill
stuffs. Fed In this way to brood sows
and young pigs 1t can scarcely be ex-
celled.
Sometimes good results are obtained
from the use Of tankage by feeding 1t
with whole Of ground grain mixed In
the proportion mentioned above, but
used dry. For our part says Iowa

form of a slop, mixing the feed with
water In advance and letting 1t stand
from n feeding time to the next.

Here is a true story told by a doctor.
This doctor had a patient, a brother
physician, who was Ill Of a disease no
one has ever cured yet. The sick man
realized that his case was hopeless.
and he knew, too, that before he died
he would go through horrible convul
sions. He begged his friend to Kill
him IN order to spare his wife the
sight of anything so unforsettably hid
eous, and the physician. bound by his
code of ethics, refused. The sick man
begged his wife to let him have his re-
yolver, but she refused. The physi-
clan locked the drawer of the bureau
In which it lay and gave the wife the
key. Two days later the sick man
shot himself, and the revolver he used
was his own. He had unlocked the
drawer.
"We found the key in It," said the
doctor. 1T was not the one | had
given to the wife. | took 1t, and when
I had a chance | went quietly into the
room occupied by the mans mother.
The key exactly fitted the lock of her
bureau. That's all | know. except that
the mother came out of the house with
her bonnet and cloak on two minutes
before her son shot himself."-Wash-
ington Post.

The neer,s Tracks.

A deer if walking always places Its
feet firmly closed upon the ground, and
consequently the track Is sharply
drawn-that Is, the hoof is not spread
to any appreciable extent. Excep-
tons are sometimes the track of deer
that are heavy with fawns, during
spring and early summer. and those OF
old bucks during the rutting season.
But even then the heels of their trac,;s
are considerably closer than in tracks
made by a hog or a sheep. The hoofs
Of the latter two animals are always
rounder at the toe than those of deer.
making the tracks they leave easily dis
ti~nguishable, and II the difference is
not discernible In frozen snow the
fact that the trail made by hogs or
sheep does not register should settle all
doubts for the tracker. A deer II not
wounded will always step with its
hind foot in the track made by the
front foot.-Field and Stream.

The Meaning of Bridge

The story goes that years ago, long
before bridge was known in London
clubs, two families who played the
game under the name Of Russian
whist" We're living In neighboring
houses at or nea Great Daily In
Leicestershlre. The only road of com
munication lay over a somewhat dan
gerous bridge. 1t was a frequent oc-
currence for the departing guests to
say to their hosts: Thank goodness. 1t
is your bridge tomorrow" meaning
that the other party would have to
cross the dangerous bridge the next
night; hence is said to have arisen
the title of bridge We give this story
for what II Is worth, but In our own
mind we have little doubt that the
modern name of bridge" Is merely a
very easy corruption of the old title
Of 'biritch." The two words "biritch"
and bridge" have absolutely the same
sound when spoken quickly. so that 1t
Is easy TO imagine how the change
came to pass.-London Saturday Re-

lambs are folded on vetches, cabbages
and rape. with no grain unless the

one-half pound per day is given. From
September until the 1st of May they
are folded on turnips. swedes and kale,

and straw. chaff or clover hay.
