Elderly Man Recalls an Event Of the

1T was about two hours before the
usual time for giving up work when
I jerked the plow out of the furrow
and drove the old mule toward the
house. Mother was at the woodpile
gathering chips into her apron. My

What's the matter, HenryY
Nothing l answered, and start
ed the mule for the barn, filed his
manger with hay and walked reso-
lutely toward the house. Mother was
inside now and l was thankful. At
the sink I secured a bar Of yellaw

Care Of the Horses Feet.

In the care of our horses feet and
legs we should see that they are kept
cleanly enough to not admit of any
disease, such as thrush, grease heel,
etc, which are often caused by allow
ing the horse to stand on an accumu-
lation of fermenting manure, or wal
low in muddy yard that contains
more or less manure, says writer in
Farmers Review. The feet of the
growing colt should be watched and
II they do not wear evenly the elon-
gated portions should be pinched off.
Allowing the feet to grow out OF shape
causes an uneven pressure on the
joints and parts above and has a ten.
dency to develop ringbone, SPAWN and
sidebones.

A colony of wasps made a nest in
the dark room of studio last sum

the room did not relish their COM

not molest them. He paid no atten-

came and went at their own sweet
will.
After a time he began to study
them and soon came to the conclu-
sion that they were gradually becom.

Hints for Farmers

Sod Flowing in the fall will help kill
out the white grubs.
Aeration of the soil is one great
benefit from plowing.
Haul in good supply of dry earth
for use in the stables.
Have you good pile of fire wood
cut, split and piled where II is dry and
handy?
Farming demands a mans best ef-
fort. No use to try to work any old
scheme and expect success.
Root up the old, unproductive fruit
trees and plant in their place young,
vigorous trees from the nursery.
If not, attend to il now so the wom-
en- folks won't have to hunt in the
snow some morning for wood to get
breakfast.

To Kill Tree Rorers.

new method of killing tree borers
is mentioned by American Agricul-
turst; "Bisulphide OF carbon may be
injected into holes where the insects
are at work. The best injector is a
metal or small cheap glass syringe,
or a small machine-oil can. About a
teaspoonful OF bisulphide of carbon is
sufficient for each hole. II injected
with some force. After injection, the
holes should be plugged with grating
wax 1t would be difficult TO treat an
entire tree by this method. but the
trunks and lower branches can be
reached"

 The finance committee can use the United States mint at San Francisco as a depository for relief funds until the subtreasury opens and thereafter can use the subtreasury until the banks open. They should withdraw funds from the Repositories in sums of not less than one thousand dollars, as the government offices in San Francisco are not equipped to do a banking bus mess. Please consult as to details of arrangements the superintendent of the mint at San Francisco. Secre- tary Shaw will immediately wire suit able instructions to the superintendent of the mint and the assistant treas urer Authority is especially given to the secretary of war to disburse the congressional appropriations amount ing altogether to two millions, five hundred thousand dollars.

FEEDING TIE MULTITUDE.

San Francisco, April 25.-TweIve thousand people are being fed daily at St. Mary's cathedral relief station, organized by Rev. Father Hannigan, and headed by him as chairman of the committee. This is perhaps the best organized and most systematically conducted station in the city. The sup plies are received at the general de- pots and are stacked high in the great auditorium of St Marys cathedral, where they may be given out on orders and passed to the line waiting with baskets and sacks. Ten thousand peo- pie can be served in three hours.
 The committee has a completed di- rectOry of the fifty square blocks in the district and so perfect is the sys- tenn that there is no doubting and no wrangling. Nine substations give out orders and it is being arranged for these stations to give out food also. Clothing is given out at other substa- tions.

CALAMITY LAWS.

San Francisco, April 25.-At a gen . eral executive meeting at Fort Mason the special legislative session and the measures there to be considered were thoroughly discussed. The question of martial law was also considered. The matter of food distribution was finally and completely turned over to the com- misary department in charge of Major Dravo. and the various committees re ported. At the meeting were Mayor Schmitz, Generals Funston and Gree ley, Secretary Metcalf, Garrett McIn- cry and representatives of every com mittee. The entire assembly drew up d message to Governor Pardee in which they stated their request for a special session of the legislature.
 The feature of passing a general ca lamity law was legally explained. The opinion of all present was that by all means this session should be called and that the necessary calamity laws should be passed. It was shown that the expense would be less than three thousand dollars a day.
 The food committee reported that all necessary provisions were on hand and Obtainable. They said that they were overwhelmed with provisions.

No Prospect yet of a Day for a Vote on the Railroad Rate Bill.

Washington, Apr. 25.-The senate to- day took up and passed a bill amend ing the law relative to the allotment of land to Indians
 An amendment for the cession of lands in the Blackfoot Indian reserva- tion in Montana was accepted after being modified so as not to prohibit the bringing of suits regarding water rights in the reservation. The bill was then laid aside and the message of the president regarding the employment of labor on government works in the vii cinity of San Francisco was ordered printed.
 MT. Flint followed the reading of the bill appropriating S30O,O0O for the employment of extra labor in the navy yard at Mare Island.
 MT. Tillman made an effort to have a day fixed for vote on the railroad bill, but was again unsuccessful. Mr. Spooner gave notice of a speech for to- morrow on that bill and MT. Clark of Arkansas for a speech on Friday on the same resolution.
 The senate adjourned until tomorrow.
