BULL TERRIERS TASTE FOR MAN
RESULTS In SUIT FOR DAMAGES

in the complaint, the trouble between
Hutchinson and the dog occurred as
follows:
on the afternoon Of July q last
year, Hutchinson was walking leisure
~ along the sidewalk admiring the
scenery when suddenly without word
of warning the terrier leaped from his
position on the poarch Of the Mont
gomery home and made a dash for him
and thereupon willfully, felonlously and
with malice aforethought buried his
teeth in the tender flesh of .Hutchin-
sons right leg.
There was fierce struggle and when
the dust settled Hutchinson hobbled
home, sans piece Of pants. sans piece
OF leg and sans a good even disposi-
ton which he had always retained
toward members OF the dog race. As
for the dog, he walked back to the
porch carrying most the things which
Hutchinson had left.
The physicians bill was t1S5 and i,
required six weeks of patient nursing
before the injured one was able to go
back to his work

Manageable Age Varies

The manageable age is different in
different countries. In Germany the
man must be 10 and the age of the
bride is left to the discretion of the
public. In Spain the husband must
have passed his fourteenth year and
the woman her twelfth. This is no
doubt responsible for much of the pow
erty in Spain. In Switzerland, however,
the marriagable age for girls and boys
is the same as in Spain.

POULTRY NOTES

You need not expect your hens to
lay regularly if you confine them to
diet of corn. Vary their food as much
as possible.
There is simply no excuse on any
farm for not furnishing shade and
plenty of pure fresh water for the poul
try.
Millet seed is the finest food for
chickens as well as older fowls. Scat
tered among dry leaves it will make
drove of chickens busy and happy for
hours. Not only is 1t healthful food,
but it requires healthful exercise tc
get it.
Lime is cheap, is a good disinfactant,
is easily secured, and is one of the best
purifiers, and should be used often as
a wash for coops, perches, nest boxes
and the sides of the house. Don't fail
to sprinkle 1t literally and often on the
floors of the chicken house and the
coops.
Go out to the hen house and look
at the pan you have been giving the
fowls their water in and see how full
of straw and other litter it is. Then
take an old cheese box, split it half
way round the side, put the dish of
water on top of that and note the diff
ference there viii be in cleanliness
The Water pan ought never TO Be
placed SO that the hens can dig stuff
over the edge into 1t.

dition as to allow rats to run under
The floor, the farmer may as we'll give

worse than any disease the fowls may
have. When the house is built it is
very easy to put wire netting such as
is used for the small chicks under The
floors. If you have not done this, an
other easy way to keep out rats is to
put in cement floor. 1t may cost lit
fle more than fixing up the wooden
hoor, but 1t is safe against rats and
a wooden floor is not If wire mesh

LIFE IN OCEAN.
Professor Of Cambridge CEng.) Uni
versity Tells Some New and
Interesting Facts.

j. Stanley Gardiner, of Cambridge
university, has been exploring the
Indian ocean and gives it as his opin-
ion that at one time there was land
connection between Ceylon and Mad
agascar. But it Is in describing the
wonders of the deep that his report
grows most interesting. "a very con.
siderable variety of deep-sea fish was
brought up" he says. AT least half
the number we secuSed seemed quite
new specimens, and, believe, are
not described in any textbook. Some
of these had enormous eyes. some
only rudimentary eyes, the size of
pins head, while some had no
eyes at all.
zone of the most interesting dis
coveries we made was that floating
life is exceedingly abundant at all
depths down to about 1900 fathoms
in seas $500 fathoms deep. BY float
ing life | mean animals which form
the food of whales and deep-ocean
fish, and which up to the present
have been believed to live on or very
CLOSE 10 tne surface. A variety or
enormous squids was fshed ogt as
well as jelly fish and gigantic prawns
fully six inches long. Some of these
latter were blind, while others had
huge eyes, but nearly all of them
had phosphorascent organs, which
would naturally be due to the fact
that they live at depth where all
most total darkness prevails.
"The blind varieties had enormous
feelers, or tentacles, some of them
extending to twice the length Of
their own bodies. Some forms, such
as the water flea, which is only about
the size of pins head in surface
water, we discovered six or ten times
that size in coo or 700 fathoms."

is very familiar in the southern states,
quite ornamental, easily grown from
