a very appreciative audience that

in a most intelligent and interesting
manner, and concluded to place an
experiment station on the farm OF
J. W. Bailey to thoroughly test the
feasibility OF growing alfalfa. He
will also have tried there a mum Der

Hank white Gave the Tip.

Hank White, the minstrel, lived In
Reading, Vt, for many years. He was
very fond Of horse races, and rarely
missed any Of the meetings in Windsor
or Rutland county. Once he attended
q breeders meeting at Rutland The
breeders meetings were famous and
attracted people from New York, Mas
sachusetts, New Hampshire and all
over Vermont On this particular day
Hank was seated In the grand stand,
one Of 5000 people.
"Hod" Fish Ira, well known char
acter, was driving his horse Belvidere,
q very large bay horse, with not too
much speed, but the owner had an idea
that he was a wonder. 1t was In the
free for all race. All the horses except
Belvidere had passed the grand stand
almost neck and neck on the first half.
It was beautiful race. Trailing be-
hind about twenty rods came, Belvi-
dere, the driver urging him on Ito bet
ter efforts, and when he was In front
Of the grand stand Hank stood up and
yelled at the top Of his voice: Take the
first turn to the left, Hod; all the 9th
ers have gone that way" Hod drove
Belvidere to the barn.-Boston Herald.

CANAL
ENORMOUS TASK
COMPLETION WILL RE-
QUIRE 10 OR 12 YEARS.
As the Work of Estimating the Details
of the Canal Progresses, the Great
Magnitude of the Contract Becomes
Apparent-Detailcd Estimate of Ex-
cavatlng and Material.

As the work Of estimating the de-
tails Of the Panama canal progresses,
it becomes more and more apparent
that it will require at least 10 or 12
years to complete the immense pro-
ject.
Some idea of the vastness of the
Panama canal project is conveyed in
circular issued by the commission
for the information of prospective
bidders for constructing the canal. 1t
said that the quantities of material to
be removed and to be applied to the
work of construction are only approx
innate and eventually the location and
character of structures may be
changed.
1t is hoped, however, that exact in
formation will be collected by the
committee of five engineers who are
charged to estimate n reasonable cost
and the time for completing the canal.
The circular states under separate
heads the character of the work to be
done.
The amount of excavation is stag
that the estimated excavation and
structural material in the sections are
approximately as follows: Colon, Sec

Syracuse calls itself the capital of the

BUTTE, THE WORLD s GREATEST COPPER

Butte is the greatest copper mining
town in the world and a description
of that city and Its COPPER belt form
an Interesting chapter of the article.
Butte. Mont, is undoubtedly the
greatest copper mining camp in the
world says Mr.. Spear. 1t produces
copper silver and gold estimated at
an annual value OF $SO,00O,0O0. 1t is
a fearful place in which to live. 1
have yet to meet the man who expects
10 die there.
1t Is flowerless, grassless, goddess
town. But It turns out tons and tons
of copper, and that is its main busi-
ness. All Of the big Amalgamated
mines, such as the Anaconda, Boston
& Montana, Butte & Boston, Parrot
and Washoe are located there. The
