ADJUTANT GENERAL NAYLoR.

The appointment by Governor Cut
Ter OF Ray Naylor as adiutant general
of the National Guard of Utah, vice
"Gineral" Geoghegan, resigned, meets
with the general approval of the men,
bers of the guard. The appointment
of Mr.. Naylor was not made without
consultation between the governor and
the members of the guard, the Tribune
to the contrary notwithstanding. The
fact is that Mr.. MAYORS appointment
was the result of urgent requests by
many members of the guard made to
the governor. The Tribune, of course,
has 1t in for" the guard, as. it has for
everything else in Utah, and is doing
its best to disrupt the organization.
Mr.. Naylor was a member of the N.
G.. U. before the Spanish war, with
the rank of major. When hostilities
with Spain broke out he enlisted in
Battery A, Utah volunteers, with the
rank of senior second lieutenant. He
served with distinction through the
war and also during the instruction
in the islands after peace with Spain
had been. concluded. He did his full
share in making the splendid record
which the Utah batteries enjoyed. and
when the organizations were mustered
out he was first lieutenant of Battery
b. He, like the others of the Utah
contingent, saw the hardest service of
any troops engaged in the war, and
demonstrated himself every inch a SOL
der. He was popular with his COM
mand, takes a great interest in the
guard, and, moreover, has the ability
and military experience necessary to
be a great factor in promoting the eff
ficiency and general morale of the
guard. These things, together with
his popularity with the boys, makes
his appointment a wise move.

terfering in politics.
The prelude was the Senator's fatal
mistake, as will be seen later. For
more than an hour he took the audi
ence at a snail pace over Japan and
the Philippines in a slow, whining,
spiritless, monotone voice, with a pc
Rod and stop at the end of each
word. Just as the Senator sat down
a real estate man arose in the audi
ence and said, in a tone that all could
hear: Senator, in 1898 you said in
an interview in the Salt Lake Tribune
that the Mormon church did not in
terfere in politics, but tonight you say
it does. What do you mean by such
talk? You know very well that since
last September there has been a guar
anteed reward of $1,000 each for proof
of every case of Mormon church inter-
ference in politics. You had better
claim those rewards before you tell
such falsehoods to deceive these peo-
pie. You also know that there is a
guaranteed reward for each and every
case of plural marriage performed or
sanctioned by the Mormon church
since September, 1890, and yet you
peddle your falsehoods all over the
country"
The Senator, when he recovered his
breath, said, "Who are your"
| The real estate man told him who
he was.
Senator-Are you a Mormon?
Real Estate Man-No, sir, l am

Senator-It is the worst book / ever

state, and l do not want my native
state buncoed and deceived by you or
your crowd, and will not put up with
it any longer.
The real estate man sat down. Sen
ator Dubois was knocked clear out.
He looked like something the cats had
brought in, but couldn't eat. Mrs.
Schoff was very fidgety, and, like Sen
ator Dubois, she was speechless. She
waved her hands in the air and seemed
to have received a sudden stroke of st.
Vitus dance or cramps. She forgot to
ask the blessing, or pronounce the ben
ediction, or dismiss the audience,
which had sat all through the colloquy
as dumfounded and stupefied as band
of wooden Indians being photographed.
When the talking ceased the audience
quietly departed. The real estate man
put on his overcoat and, with hat in
hand, went out into the night.

view in Mondays Philadelphia Record,

CURING CLOVER HAY.
Only Such Amount as Can Be Safely
Cured and Stored Should Be Cut.

Where a hay loader is used, it is
sometimes advantageous to ted clover
hay twice to get all the dampness out
of 1t before putting it in barns. Where
the hay is loaded by hand from cocks
or piles, this is seldom necessary.
Glover hay, says the Orange Judd
Farmer, should never put in the NOW
when damp, with the expectation that
1t win cure out in NOW.
If the weather is very brittle, as it
was last year in this latitude, small
amounts should be cut so that too
much will not be down at one time.
My practice Is to cut one day about
what can put in the next, so that if
the weather breaks and my hay gets
wet after It is almost cured our loss
will be comparatively small. Last
wear during the wet weather, / know
of farmers who lost five or six acres
by cutting down too much at one
time. Besides, if the weather proves
warm and clear, when so much is cut
at one time the last to be taken In
will be too dry to handle we'll and so
many Of the leaves will drop off while
handling that the value of the hay
will be greatly reduced.
A good programme for hay making
and one which endeavor to carry out
is about as follows Cut the latter
part OF day, about as much as can be
taken care OF the next afternoon, this
to be governed Of course by the
amount of help at hand. Begin ted
ding by ten a. m, the next day If the
weather is clear. BY one or two p.
m, begin hauling to the barn Clean
up if possible all that is down Have
team cutting for next day and 50 on
each day.

RosToN's FIRST STEAM FIRE
ENGINE.

pacity to throw streams of water in
comparison with hand engines.
A publication of January IA, 1855,
thus tells the story of the purchase,
and describes the machine:
We present our readers with an
accurate delineation OF the new steam
fire engine, invented by A. B. Lata,
for which our city government APP
propriated the sum of $1,000 The
city of Cincinnati, which was the first
to adopt this important invention, has
three large engines in the process of
construction. At an experimental
trial in Cincinnati water was forced
through a line of hose 600 feet in
length, throwing a stream upon the
roof of So story building, 112 feet
high. At the same time six streams
were in operation, throwing simultane-
ously 1000 barrels of water per hour
five stories high. Water was thrown
in nearly horizontal line 220 feet.
The machine is capable of being put
in operation in five or six minutes
after the fires are started.
"A very peculiar and important fea-
ture is that by which steam can be
made to pass from the steam chamber
through a pipe into a building before
fire is fully developed, thereby
smothering 1t in its incipient stages.
1t has often been said that water oc-
casions as much damage to property
as fire, but by employing steam in
this way, goods may be saved with
out any injury.
The capacity Of this engine is
equal to that of six common engines,
and while it is capable of throwing
as much water, 1t elects with much
greater force and to greater heights
and distances.
I'VE believe this machine is des-
tined to work complete revolution
in the fire departments of great cities,
and that before long every large city
and town will have two or three of
them. Doubtless there will be i'm
)rovements introduced, but the name
of the inventor Of this new engine
will ever be remembered as that of
public benefactor."

A BATH FOR PIGS.
Necessity for Dipping Them is as
Great oftentires as With Sheep.

Many men who are careful to dip
their sheep in order to remove trouble
some ticks never seem to think that
there may be just as disagreeable
parasites on the pigs. They may mo-
tice that the hogs keep rubbing
against a wall or post frequently, and
that their skins seem to be getting
tough and hard, and the hair stiff and
harsh, yetsif one asks them: Haven't
your hogs lice?" they will doubtless re-
ply: No. ] haven't seen any" Al
most invariably, however, upon close
examination myriads of these tiny
creatures will be observed to be play
ing hop scotch over the backs Of
the afflicted pigs, which should be
given a bath with a disinfectant, just
as one does sheep The same tank
that serves for the sheep, says the
Rural World. may be used for the pigs.
Old hogs hate to go into such tanks,
but one can throw their hinder parts
in first, so that they cans crawl up
the steep incline, then push their
heads under with the foot After they
have been in the bath about min

which they will make haste enough
TO get out. 1t is not difficult to dip

II no dipping tank is at hand a small
wallow, eight or ten feet square and
six inches deep, can be made in the

spite of the daily visits of the birds
but when the young of the latter were
Matched, the numbers of the beetles
began to diminish rapidly and when
the young birds were fedged and
were brought by their parents and
placed in row upon the fence around
the field, the insects rapidly disap-
oeared, and when | examined the field
a week later | could not find single
beetle, either young or adult.
About this time the birds began to
prey upon some peas in my garden,
and / shot one of them and examined

sisted of one large green caterpillar

and a few fragments of peas. My

the pea vines, and the birds came
near them no more. All of the above
observations were made in the state
of Iowa, which was one Of the first
states to suffer from the attacks of
the beetles on their eastward march.
Since then this habit of the Gros-
beak has been confirmed by thousands
of observers in all parts of the coun-
try where the potato beetle and the
bird are found. AS this insect is
eaten by but few species of birds it
is especially desirable that this one,
that eats ii so freely, should be pre-
served and its increase be encouraged
in every possible manner. Forty
years ago this bird was rare in New
England-in fact, was entirely I'M
