OSTRICH FARMING IN u. S.
Two Thousand of the Queer Bird S
on Farm Near Los
Angeles.

Few people know that ostrich
farming is carried on profitably and
on large scale in the United States.
The queer antics and habits of this
strangest and biggest of birds are
well worth a visit to the ostrich
farms, of which there are many in
southern California and a few else
where as in Peenix, Arizona, says
the detroit Free Press.
One farm near Los Angeles has
1000 of the birds. The chef duty
of the keepers is to have the Great
ures in a happy frame of mind. AS
long as they succeed in this every
thing goes well and each spring
there is rich crop of plumes. The
ostrich when disconnected shows it
by kicking and his kicks are the
dread of the keepers. An ostrich S
kick is as powerful as that of "a mule
and much better aimed and more
sudden. Prof. Shillings the famous
photographer of wild animals. says
he has seen an ostrich kick a lion in
to complete submission. The big
birds legs, however, are as delicate
as pugilist's hands, and whenever
kick does not land quite true the
ostrich ends his career with bro
ken leg.
The farms are spread over many
acres. Each bird has his own terri
tory bounded by imaginary lines
which nobody but the ostrich itself
can If any bird or any person
but the accredited keeper crosses
the line the kicking begiAs.
1t requires three or four days Of
coaxing. enticing and frightening to
collect the birds for the spring
plucklng. They are finally crowded
into an inclosure so tightly that
Their. is no room to kick. From
there they are taken to the plucking
box which is also too narrow to per-
nit kicking and there the tail
plumes are plucked.
Crushed bones are generally eaten.
They require the phosphate the
bones contain. Should a too large
bone stick in the neck it is simple
matter to cut it out and sew the
place up again. The wound as
rule heals quickly and causes but
little inconvenience.
Ostriches are mostly fed on meal
and alfalfa. They will swallow al
most anything small euongh to pass
down the neck such as oranges. small
fowls, tortoises, turkeys, chickens
and kittens.
One of the owners of a camp
found an ostrich cock in his dining
room helping himself, one after an
other to the contents of a box of
luscious peaches. He also spoke of
a tennis ball being sent beyond the
tennis grounds close to an ostrich,
which at once swallowed it with an
evident relish bringing the game to
a sudden end. They will swallow
yards of fencing wire in short
pieces.

PLAYING TO GALLERIES
Way Some insiders" Regard
Beckham'S Latest Move.
Calling of Extra Session Believed
to Have had Deeper Motive
Than the Call Reflects.

After the CONSERVATION which fol-
lowed Gov. Beckham's shrewd and
spectacular political move in calling
the Legislature in extraordinary ses-
sion, members of the general assem-
bly, and hangers-on. having recover
ed from the dazzling effect of the
spectacular play. began to ask one
another and themselves: How long
will it last? Will there be another
fight? and will any questions other
than the rectifers tax and the reve-
nue. agents be taken up?
The general opinion among leglsla-
tors seems to be that the special
session will not last longer than
twenty days, that there is no reason
why it should last longer to dispose
of the two matters indicated in the
Governors call, but legislators have
a failing for drawing their per diem
per day." and Frankfort is a pleas
ant place to spend a vacation.
Moreover there is no certainty that
other measures will not come up for
consideration. Gov. Beckham indi-
Gated that he might amend his call,
and already members of the Legisla-
ture are asking him to amend it so
that pet measures may be introduc-
ed again and considered.
But before disclosing his plan for
an extra session Gov. Beckham as
sured himself that several measures
which he wished passed, went
through without hitch. Especially
was this true of S250,000 appropria-
ton bill for the State Capitol,
and of the Legislative Reds
tricting bill. Then. knowing that
he had secured all from the Senate
that he wanted, he flashed his call
for an extra session. II was the lace
in the hole" with which the rectifiers
have not reckoned. They were
caught in the net trap. No longer
could they hold up legislatian favor
able to the administration to force
an agreement in their interest. The
Governor now holds the strings of
legislation. They cannot consider
q thing that he does not wish. They
have only one consolation. The
Governor can say what shall be con-
sidered. but the legislators only can
say how long they will take in con-
sidering it. And it may resolve it
self into long drawn fight, a test
of endurance between the House and
the Senate.
There are others who, putting
aside as trivial the spectacular feat
ures of the Governors play, look
closer, and claim to see far deeper
political significance in the call than
any outwitting of the rectifers' fac
ton or any desire to tax the rectifier
or increase the revenue of the State.
Gov. Bekham and his machine have
broken entirely with the whisky ele-
mcnt, and are now playing to the
temperance people. They see a
play to the galleries" in the call.

GOOD WORK OF LIFE
SAVING SERVICE
THOUSANDS OF LIVES AND VAST
PROPERTY RESCUED.
REPORT FOR PAST YEAR
Valuable Assistance Rendered and
Warnings Given-ProbIem of In
staIIing Power in LIfe-5oats
Solved.

Washington, Dec. Is. - Importan
work was accomplished during the
past year by the life saving service Of
the government, thousands of imper
He'd lives and millions Of dollars worth
Of property being saved through the
heroism and unremitting vigilance Of
the life savers.
General Superintendent Kimball, oil
the life saving service, shows IN his
annual report that the number of ma
rine disasters was $40 in the waters
OF the United States. In these, 4s
vessels and 20 lives were lost and S11
persons were succored at the various
stations. The total value of property
saved was $12,266,10O, while that lost
was $2,775,040. In the disasters $500
lives were imperiled.
At the close Of the last fiscal year
the life saving establishments com,
prised 279 stations. of which 200 were
on the Atlantic coast, 60 on the great
lakes, 16 on the Pacific coast proper
and one each at the falls of the Ohio
river, and Nome, Alaska.
Much Other Help Given.

which were lost. Patrolmen and sta.
ton lookouts also warned 81 steamers

ming into danger, the warnings un.
doubtedly averting disasters which
would have caused loss Of both life
and property. The life savers rescued
bathers. recovered bodies of the
drowned and assisted many persons in
distress.
Particularly valuable assistance, It
fs'noted, was rendered by the life sag.
ing crews at San Francisco during the
earthquake and confiaegation last
April, in fighting the fire, transporting
supplies and sheltering the homeless.
Power In Life-Boats.
Superintendent Kimball says that
the problem of installing power in a
life-boat without reducing its carrying
capacity or destroying its self-drifting
property has been solved and during
the year seven of the largest sized
boats have been equipped with gaso-
line engines. They constitute a most
important addition to the life saving
equipment and materially enlarge the
~ dus of the effective work of the
ews.
Mr.. Kimball points out that the
great service rendered has cost the
government only $1,S32,4 He urges
strongly that the benefits of retirement
be extended to officers and men of the
service who become disabled through
injury or disease or incapacitated by
age. 10. .. 70
