CONGRESS AGAIN.

In less than a month now the
people Of this country will have
congress on their hands again.
This can hardly be SO important
session as that of last winter.
For one thing, it is the ''short
session." ending March 4, when the
terms expire and the new congress
men take their places. That is,
they begin to draw salaries, but
they will not be able to take their
seats, unless there is special
session, until a year from next
month.
Important matters however, will
press for action. The tariff it
foremost in the popular mind, but
it will occupy but small place in
the congressional vision. There is
no election for two years, and the
congressman do not need to keep SO
cloce an eye on their constituencies
as they do in the long session just
preceding an election. The present
house is hopelessly standpat, and
those who would attempt tariff
revision at this session would find
themselves so circumcribed by
hostility that they would quickly
subside, unless they are possessed
of unusual strength and determine
ton.
The pure food bill, the meat
law, the denatured
alcohol law and the railroad rate
law, the important products of last

JoKERs PUT SNAKE IN JUG.
Scheme to Save Drunkard Makes Him
Maniac.

By placing a live snake in water
jug, fellow harvest hands made raw
ing maniac of Peter Deuser. on the
farm of Joseph Andover, near Water
vile. Wash.
Deuser had been in America but
three months. He left Germany while
under the effects of liquor, according
to his explanation, and he had been
trying to drown his disappointment
over his escapade in drink. He was
just recovering from a spree when
his companions conceived the idea that
to place a snake in the water jug
might teach Deuser lesson. A harm
less reptile was captured. deposited In
the jug, and corked up.
Deuser's thirst caused him to seek
the jug, and the jokers watched his
actions with great interest. He re-
moved the cork and had the jug with
in two inches of his lips, when the
head of the reptile emerged. With a
wild scream Deuser hurled the jug
to the ground and ran until he reached
the Columbia river, six miles distant.
He plunged into the stream and
Tapped the water like dog. He was
wading into deep water when his pur-
suers captured him.

Tree That Gives Light.

Among freaks of nature in trees
there stands conspicuous one known
as the Asiatic star tree. 1t is enor-
mously tall, growing to a height of
from 60 feet to 80 feet, while from the
ground up to a distance of about 40
feet the trunk is perfectly bare. From
that point there spring a number of
tangled limbs, which shoot out clus-
tiers of long, pointed leaves, and it is
these, grouped together. that emit at
night clear, phosphorescent light.
This gives the tree spectral appear
ance, and is very deceiving to travel
ers. who frequently mistake the glow
for an Illuminated window of house.
The light is not brilliant. but is Of
sufficient strength to allow OF news

flicker, but CLOVIS steadily from sunset

winters session, will need a little
tinkering, flaws having been found
in all of them.
Cuba will probably be the subject
of some discussion, and those favor
ing annexation are quite likely to
make their ideas known before the
session closes. Annexation is not
popular and therefore it may not
gain much Roadway, but it is certain
to be discussed.
The merchant marine subsidy, the
currency custom, the Philippine
tariff measure and other important
subjects are very likely to find them
selves shunted off on the next
congress for settlement.
Labor has some measures still
awaiting attention, such as the anti
injunction bill and the bill limiting
the hours of employment of rail
road workers. The former stands
little show of passage at least in its
present broad form, which makes
labor the only exception from the
operation Of the writ of Injunction.
The bill that would place a
reasonable limit on the time during
which railroad trainmen may be
employed is SO obviously in the in
terests of the public safety that it
ought not to have any real
opposition, though it is certain to
meet with some.
1t will be a busy session, with
little time for speech-making, and
it will be interesting to note
wether the warnings of the recent
election will have any effect upon
the conservatism of congress. -Du-

Therefore, long fences are built in
rows reaching right across wide fields
and to these the grass is brought in

tossed about on the ground; but
towards evening it is all carefully

PROFITABLE FARMING.

Every General Farmer should Raise
Wen Bred stock.
Sufficient live stock should be kept
on every farm to consume the rough
age and some OF the grain produced on
the farm. This is not only necessary
In order to maintain the fertility Of the
soil, but it Is necessary In order that
farming may be probably carried on.
A general farmer should raise well
bred stock, but not necessarily pure
bred. IN fact, be can hardly afford
TO raise pure bred cattle, sheep and
hogs for the block OF pure bred horses
TO work In the field at the present
market value Of pure bred animals.
True, IL the plan of breeding only
from pure bred sires Is practiced long

tically pure bred, and 1t should be the
aim OF every stock raiser to ultimately
secure such herd or nock.
