DestrOying Weeds.

There are two ways of completely
destroying weeds. One Is to let them
nave the opportunity to grow, and, by
frequently cultivating them, turn them
under as fast as they make their ap-
pearance; the other being to crowd
them out by growing some crop that
will not give the weeds a chance to
grow. No system Of cultivation will
Kill all the weeds If crop is desired
such as corn-for the grass and
weeds will only be kept down so long
as cultivation lasts, especially as corn
Is usually "laid by" at time when
the weeds are producing seeds, thus es-
tablishing themselves for the succeed
Ing year. AS test Of what supposed
clean culture of corn may be, simply
cut down a row of stalks and a row
Of weeds will remain. As a single weed
produces thousands Of seed, the labor
of destroying the weeds must be re-
peated next season.

Big Demand for Pork.

The demand for pork this year has
astonished even the most sanguine
friends of the hog. Both fresh and
cured meats have been taken in large
volume right along at prices which
were so high that they were expected
to check consumption. There are three
reasons why this condition has existed
and still exists. First is the prosper
ity Of the South, large consumer Of
cured meats. The Southern trade was
never larger than 1t Is to-day. Next
is the growing foreign trade, which
like our own, seems to proceed regard
less of prices. And, finally, the people
of this country have learned 70 eat
bacon. Its consumption is unprece-
dented in our history, and Is still grow
Ing. There has been no shortage in
numbers of hogs, but vastly increased
demand. This is why prophecies based
on hog supplies have failed and are
likely to fail in the future.-National
Stockman.

Hair-BaIIs.

We are frequently asked what causes
hair-balls. These concretions are pro-
duced by the animals licking them
selves or other animals. As result
Of this habit the hairs swallowed are
carried around by the contractions of
the stomach and gradually assume the
form of a small pellet or ball. These
Increase in size as fresh quantities of
hair are introduced into the stomach,
which become adherent to the surface
Of the hair-ball. These hair-balls are
found most frequently in the reticulum
or second stomach, although sometimes
In the rumen. In calves, hair-balls are
generally found in the fourth stomach.
There are no certain symptoms by
which we can determine the presence
of halr-balls, and therefore no treat
ment can be recommended for such
cases. The walls Of the reticulum have
In some cases been found transfixed
with nails or pieces Of wire, and yet
the animals during life had not shown
any symptoms of indigestion, but had
died from maladies not involving the
second stomach.-St Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat.

MISTAKES OF RUSSIAN POLICE.
(To be continued.)

Cars Law Officers Declared tc lie
Extremely Stupid.
The Cars whole bureaucracy has for
years been SO thoroughly detested by
all classes of Russians that now it Is
mainly filled by the least intelligent of
the population. And Of these the police
are the worst, says Ernest Poole in the
World To-Day. l myself was arrested
several times, as SO many correspond
ents are, and l found the police in ev-
cry instance the most dense Of mortals.
From my newspaper friends l heard
scores of stories about this stupidity.
These two are typical:
Some time ago a man threw bomb
at governor, killed him and escaped.
The government sent all over the en-
plre placard and two photographs of
the assassin, his front view and his
profile. And three weeks later a DO
liceman in western Siberia telegraphed {:

am bringing them to Petersburg"
At midnight in Petersburg an inno-
cent peace-loving professor stood on a
bridge staring into the sluggish waters
Of the Neva. He was thinking of a rival
professor who had a new theory about
gravitation.
THAT man." said the professor aloud,
SIS the dullest idiot in Russia"
Instantly big policeman pounced
upon him out Of the darkness and with
out word began dragging him off. The
poor old professor shook with terror.
"Why am l arrested?" he cried.
"What is my crime"
High treason!" growled the police
man.
But why? Why"
"Oh, don't try to fool me! You called
his imperial majesty an idiot %
"Heavens!" cried the Mortified pro-
fessor, the spectacles falling from his
nose. "Why should you think was
speaking of the Czar?"
The big policeman stopped and looked
down, puzzled.
'The dullest idiot in Russia" he said
slowly, searching his memory. "Who
else could you have meant?"

CHAPTER XIV.

The sun was up, very red and bold, as
we passed through Zurich; and where 1t
touched the great lake, the waters shone
scarlet as blood under the slanting rays.
Before us the Alps were heavine upward,
growing mightier every hour, with the
pinnacles of their strange frost kingdoms
blushing in the early sunshine. By eleven
o'clock we had left the open country,
passing into a labyrinth of valleys,
crowned with pines, waiting black and
silent on their snow carpets, scored with
torrents and patched with frozen tarns.
Coire was reached by half-past one, and
the narrow gauge of the Thusis line car
ried us through meadows and brushwood
morasses until we crossed the upper
Rhine and drew into the station which
is set under the cliff bastions, outworks
of the Alp ctadels beyond.
1t was then three of the clock. There
were still forty miles left of our journey
"a ten hours drive over the passes to
the distant Engadine.
A carriage with three horses was wait
ing to our order without the station.
We entered it at once, and the driver
swung his team into the Iletenkastell
road. Fifty francs from Graden had i'm
pressed him with the necessity for haste.
Yet our progress was insufferably tedi-
ous. Once across the bridge, we dropped
into a walk, while our straining team
tugged heavily up the pass of Schyn.
To our left the ridge barred the view; but
on the right, narrow valleys sliced deep
into the glittering heights above gave us
sight of the stately peaks that senti-
nelled the eastern sky. In an hour we
had entered the forest of Versasca-for

the pavement of the hill village of lief

of the Albula Gorge. The dying rays
struck fercely on the distant peaks, un-
til those pale ice maidens found rosy
bushes for such reckless gallantry. 1t
was a spectacle of infinite grandeur, and,
despite my impatience, l leaned from
the window watching the light fade and
whiten into the opals of the after-glow.

into my corner. "These drivers know

Smoking clay pipe, the circus actor
sat in the winter training quarters.
Under his supervision a thin boy was
learning to ride erect on quiet horse
with broad, fiat back.
I'm some towns they won't let us
show" said the man, unless we have
no camels with us. Camels are a seri.
Gus drawback to shows. Horses are so
much afraid Of them that lots of towns
won't let camel enter their gates.
"A horse won't go near a piece Of
ground camel has stood on. The very
smell Of camel in the air will make
a horse tremble and sweat. And this
fear isn't only found occasionally in a
horse here and there 1t is found in
every horse all over the world. Queer,
isn't 1t? l often wonder why 1t Is.
Cattle hate dogs in the same way, and
cats hate dogs so, too. Here, though,
we can account for the hatred. Dogs in
primitive times fed on cattle, no doubt,
and even to-day, here and there, they
kill and feed on kittens.
Horses love dogs. I'm sure I don't
know why. Dogs fear no animals but
pumas and leopards. You can take n
dog up to lions or tigers cage and
he will show no fear, but take him up
to the cage Of puma or leopard and
he will tremble and moan and stink

sity for giving a false name annoyed
him extremely. 1t was the first time in

AS can be imagined, we were very
puzzled about it. We had sent no mes
sage, and we could not think what was
the reason for their sudden determina-
ton. Reski behaved in a most curious
fashion when l told him. 1t might have
been the news of some great good for

which, fortunately, l can speak, though
not very correctly.

plant Of pepper grass will produce 49,.
600 seeds; dandellon, 12,000 shep-

burdock, $4,000. The Importance of not
allowing a single weed to produce seed
cannot be alluded to too frequently.
A single hours work in destroying
weeds may save weeks Of labor next

Value of Weight in Horses.

Every hundred pounds additional
weight In the case Of heavy draft
horse is worth from % to 80 cents
more per hundredweight when making
sale. A farmer Is in position to feed
as cheaply as any professional feeder.
To sell well on the market horses must
be fat sleek and well groomed. The
buyers demand fat. If one has time
to give proper exercise and light work,
something may be added to the value
Of the horse, and it will be ready to
go right into the heavy work Of a city
buyer. A little additional grooming,
together with blanketing, for month
will also add good bit to the selling
price.

1--WE shall soon have news" he said
quietly. For information that will lead
to his arrest, 1 have offered the police,
here and ON the continent, reward of
five thousand pounds"
He spoke the truth. News came soon,
indeed.
We were lunching together In Graden's
chambers on the fourth day after their
departure, when the telegram arrived
My cousin opened it. AS he read, l saw
the line of his jaw set and harden. Then
he handed it across the table. This was
the message:
Fear we are in great peril Come at
once. Weston"
The realization of those words must
have come to me slowly, for it was Gra-
den's hand on my arm that woke me
from the stupor into which l had fallen
Even then l could hardly understand.

he. Can you be ready in five minutes 2"

We had still quarter of an hour to
spare when our cab ratified over the
cobbles of the station-yard. While my
cousin took the tickets, 1 stood at the
bookstall, staring at the backs of the nov
els, with that call for help twisting in a
dreary chant through my head. I'm
great peril. Come at once" SO it ran,
over and over again. Several passing
strangers turned and regarded me curl
ously over their shoulders.
l do not think we spoke more than
once before reaching Dover. l asked if
he had telegraphed a reply. He had done
so, he said at Charing Cross.
