ODD FOUNDATION.

A Town Built On M Immense Bank
of Oyster Shells.
The secondary foundation of Girls
field, Md, is the bottom Of the Chesa-
peake bay, and between the bottom of
Cristield and the bottom of the bay are
probably hundreds of millions. On this
great stratum of oyster shells stand
houses, wharfs and business places. A
railroad runs along on it, bridges cross
its dividing places, men walk and talk
and do business, steamboats, and sail
boats-yes. hundreds of sailboats-have
their landings alongside it; merry boat
ing parties put off from the shore by
moonlight and fish and crab and re-
turn in the early morn-all to this
great bank of oyster shells sunk in the
blue water.
Crisfield lives by oysters and crabs
not by eating them, for Crisfielders
rarely eat either, but by catching them,
boiling them, packing them, shipping
them, selling them. He who would
know the crab can best learn it by Wis
lting this wholly and solely crab town
on the Chesapeake. Men in boats quick
ly fill barrels with crabs and bring
them ashore to the factories" Here
they are counted. sorted, steamed,
packed in barrels and shipped until one
wonders who can possibly eat all these
mountains and myriads of crabs
There are many people in this coun-
try. A crab apiece for them all once
year in the season would mean
some crabs" At least so one of the
crab dealers put it.-Philadelphia Rec

HEART ACTION AT SEA.
How 1t In Affected by Vibration ON
Ocean Liners.

How Ii In Affected by Vibration on
Ocean Liners.
"1All hearts sound alike on these
modern Ships said the surgeon of a
transatlantic liner Although the hull
of the average modern steamer Is big
ger and supposedly less subject to the
violence of the sea, the machinery to
drive the enlarged hulls has been in
creased in size With the increase in
the size of the engines there has fol-
lowed greater vibration.
1T Is this vibration which makes ii
impossible for us to read truly the
action of the average human heart. !
have tried repeatedly by all manner
of means to overcome the influence of
the vibration on the heart, but l find
that by even swinging patient in n
hammock. where the shaking up Is not
greatly felt, the result of the heart
reading Is far from satisfactory.
THE first day at sea in this ship on
her maiden voyage I had occasion to
treat an Englishman who was en-
route to Canada on business. l was
startled to hear his heart. Yet he had
the finest kind of cardiac action, as
ascertained once the ships machinery
stopped. l have since found it to be
an invariahle rule that the engines
vibration makes it appear as though
the heart of the average man was 60
ing to stop before I could get the
stethoscope away from his breast
Vibration does not hurt the heart
any. Do not make the mistake of sup
posing that it does. 1t just sounds as
though the end was positive, and.
while the patients heart is beating in
regular form, the shaking Of the ship
deceives even the practiced ear

The Noting Period.

The best care should be taken of our
fowls to keep them in good condition
during the trying period of melting.
Il is a great drain upon their vitality
II crow Il new coat of plumage. Too
often the needs of our fowls are total
ly IGNORED during this really critical
season because they have dropped off
in EGG yield says American Poultry
Journal 1t is best to select such
fowls from ones flock as you desire
to retain for breeding and market the
balance before they begin to shed
their feathers. We are too apt to look
OF time spent on our Biddies getting
their new clothes" as lost, not giving
due credit to them for the long months
OF faithful service given in filling the
egg basket and Matching and rearing

when eggs grow scarce we call into
use the Ratchet, and not infrequently
the most useful members of our flocks
lose their heads because of the ragged
condition.

Farmers and Poultry.

The farmer has real grievance
against the poultry fancier in that he
has done all of his crossing and in
breeding of fathers, daughters, uncles
and aunts without any regard to prac-
teal utility, says Farming. Whether
the hens from which he has been
hrceling We're producing sixty eggs a
year or 200 made no difference. His
whole aim has been to breed out foul
fight feather or two or to create Il bet
ter comb or eyes of Il better tint at n
sacrifice of everything else. The re-
suit is that when Il farmer goes into
the market to buy thoroughbreds with
his money in his pocket ready and will
ing to pay for the best stock he not on
ly often pays for qualities he does not
need, but actually pays Il premium for
something that has been obtained at a
sacrifice of the very qualities which he
does need. There are a few men. how,
ever, raising thoroughbred stock that
is ''bred to lay or to meet certain mar,
ket demands, and those are the men
that should be patrcnized.

MUSkRAT BUILDERS.
The House In the Meadow and How
lie Is Constructed.

IL Is Constructed.
l have always been told that musk
rat houses mean severe winter. In
stead of a sign Of cold weather, the
muskrat house means simply that one
or more muskrats have chosen to live
i'll the low meadow or at the shallow
head of the pond, where there is nc
chance to burrow underground and
have bedroom that cannot be flooded
by the high tides of winter.
These same muskrats. along the steer
banks of Il river, would tunnel into the
earth and there dig a bedroom out OF
reach of the highest flood. They do moi
always succeed, however, as they are
often washed out of their winter beds
by spring freshets.
The house in the meadow is usually
grassy top forms the bed. This is dom
ed over, making large room big
enough for one or for half q dozen, &C
cording to the number Of muskrats
sharing the work. At least two open
ings or dives lead from the bed into
open water at the foot of the tussock
And this water never freezes. When
ice forms outside, the warmth of the
muskratS' bodies is sufficient to keen
the doors free, through which the
dweliers shoot at instant alarm, fol-
these passages lead into winding bur.
rows and waterways that run far out
through the rich, rooty meadow.-Coun

MESMER'S METHODS.

He Influenced l>lticn(s by SuSSes~
ton, but Hid Real Power.
Mesmcr published in 1913 his ac-
count of the marvellous cures effected
by what he was pleased to term an
imal magnetism When in 17TS he
came to Paris he came with Il we'll de-
veloped sense of the value of advertis-
Ing. The campaign lie inauguratea was
of character to disgust the conserVa-
tive and thoughtful, but to take sen
sation loving pOpulace by storm. Most
cXtravagant tales of cures he had ac-
colnplishcd i'll Berlin, Vienna and else
where were nOiSed abroad. Through
convert he challenged the physicians
of Paris to enter into contest with
him, they to treat twelve patients by
the orthodox methods, he to treat
twelve by his. OF course this challenge
was rejected, and equally of course
its rejection was interpreted by the
thoughtIcss as an acknowledgment Of
the superiority OF Mesmer's treatment
His rooms We're thronged. His purse
waXed constantly heavier.
The treatment he gave was such as
to appeal vividly to the imagination of
the patient-in word, to increase his
suggestibility. Suggestion, indeed, was
its root element. although Mesmer fail
ed or pretended to fail to recognize this
ard taught that its efficacy depended
upon the effluence of mysterious
fluid. In a room dimly lighted and
hung with mirrors the patients were
seated about circular vat of con-
siderable size covered with lid and
containing various chemicals. A long
cord connected the patients with one
another, while in the lid Of the tub
were several holes. through each of
which passed an iron rod bent in such
way that its point could be applied
to any part of Il patients body. The

the only sound in the room being
strains of soft music. When eXpectan-
cy was at its flood Mesmer would en-
ter clad in the robe of magician and
carrying an iron wand. At one patient
he would gaze intently, and another he
would stroke gently with his wand.
Soon some would burst into laughter,
others into tears. while still others
would fall into commissions, finally
passing into lethargic state, out of
which, it is claimed, they emerged

About the same period at which

Quantity OF Lime Compared With Commercial
Fertilizers.

In the first six inches of an acre of soil
there are about 100000 pounds of SOIL
Suppose the farmer would deem it advis-
able to apply only one tenth of an ounce
of fertilizer to every pound of SOIL he
would have to apply four aud one half
tons of fertilizer to the acre. and this, if
he were to use the cheapest kind of goods,
would cost him more than fifty dollars
per acre. And in these cheap grades
there is only about ten per cent. of avail
able plant-food, so if he would apply this
large quantity he would have only one
hundred of one per cent. of plant food in
every pound of soil. But what amount
does he usually apply ?-about two or
three hundred pounds per acre, or at
least $500 ounces distributed over
100000 pounds of soil. costing him, if
he uses a good grade of fertilizer, at least
five dollars, and of which not more than
one-third is available. But suppose he
uses lime instead of commercial fertilizer,
At the rate of forty bushels per acre, then
ne will have 38, 400 ounces to every acre,
costing him not more than the CONNER
cial fertilizer, and not only is all the lime
available, but unlike the commercial fer.
tilizer. it has the power of making native
plant food available.
