Misleads Horse Buyer.

Deacon" Snow, who recently died in Provincetown at a good old age. was one of the shrewdest horse trad. CTS on the cape. He once had a horse which showed a rooted aversion to covering more than three miles an hour.
 A customer who liked the appear ance of the animal had about conclu ded to purchase, and asked if he was a good traveller. The deacon" as suming confidential tone, said: "Mr Jones, you'll certainly be pleased to see that horse go."
 The bargain was made and the rew owner drove away. The next morning bright and early he appeared on the scene in great rage. See her." he cried, addressing the "deacc h." q thought you told me this horee was a great traveler?"
 Never said nuthin' of the kind" was the quiet reply.
 What in thunderation did you say, then?"
 '1 said you'd certainly be pleased to see that borse go. and so would any one else, I guess, that owned him."

Sent Out by Express.

A few years ago banquet was given the delegF tes to the conven- tion which had that day nominated Hon. Otis M. Cove, of Waltham, Mass, for the state senate.
 Several of the delegation had spoken in very fiattefing terms of the nominee, of his native city and its famous watch industries, whose products were so we'll known every where.
 The last speaker, ex-Mayor Batter, of Medford, began by saying: Gen. tlemen, we have listened to the glow ing accounts of the industries of Wal tham, whose pro lucts are so well known everywhere. But don't for get that Medford also has industries of her own, the products of which I venture to say are as well known to the good people of Waltham as those of her own beloved city"

The Number of Our Hairs.

According to a well known medical authority fair-haired people possess commonly between 140,00O and 15O,0OO hairs on the scalp, the number being about the same for man and woman. Dark haired people have, on an aver age. about 1O5,O00, while red haired people are said to have only 3O,OCO. But the last apparently possesses one great advantage in the fact that they retain their hair better, seldom becom- ing bald. Their hair is much coarser than that of dark or fair haired per sons.

 The government which has been in- vestigating the adulteration of alfalfa seed has found that out of 352 samples of seed obtained on the open market. | 160 were found to contain seed of the destructive parasitic plant dodder. Nine samples were adulterated with i seed of yellow trefoil, and nine sam- 1 pies with bur clover. In some cases 1 this adulteration ran to over 50 pc cent.
 Under the new meat inspection law | 1t is necessary for the farmer who engages in the business of buying and i slaughtering calves to apply to the i secretary of agriculture at Washing ton if he would secure exemption i from the inspection which the pack | ing house business must undergo. The necessity of inspection would prove a serious handicap to the farmer, and he can secure it by making the proper application.

fertility has created widespread inter- est Prof. Whitney contends that ma nures do not benefit soils, and Prof. Hopkins takes direct issue with his theory of the inexhaustible fertility Of the soil. Wouldn't be bad idea for the government to publish Prof. Hop- kins' recent address at Washington as an appendix to the bulletin of Prof. Whitney on Soil Fertility. Then the farmer could read both sides and take his choice of theories.
 The international live stock show at Chicago this year outdid all other shows in several respects. First in matter of attendance. Last year the 500,000 mark was passed and this year it reached 600,600. A second notable fact was that this year holds the record for the highest price ever paid for a car load of cattle at one of these exhibits, $17 per 100 pounds This sum was secured by Funk Broth CTS of Shirley, H., for two-year-old An gus steers averaging 1,43S pounds. which were sold to the New York Butchers Dressed Meat company. When the cash prizes won by these steers was added to the sale price they net the feeders $4,291.90. A not able feature of the show was the dis play of fat stock by the agricultural colleges, which clearly demonstrated that these institutions are educating a new generation of feeders. The Kansas agricultural college won the | championship for two-year-old Short Horn, and the Minnesota college had tie best Angus steers. The colleges l did well in the exhibits of steers, Kan nate.
 Growers of hogs will be interested | in a recent bulletin issued by the Nebraska experiment station giving the results obtained in feeding tank | age and ground bone with corn. Tank age is a concentrated protein meal made from scraps Of meat trimmed from beef carcasses in the packing houses. When dried and ground it looks very much like dark-colored wheat shorts. In the four expert ments 1O9 pigs were used. Of the results of these experiments E. A Burnett of the station, says: In these experiments the cost has always been lessened by the use of 5 per cent tankage along with corn, or 5 pounds of tankage foI each 95 pounds of corn This would Je equivalent to 2SO rounds of tankage for each 100 bush els of corn fed. In experiment III the cost of the gains was lessened 6S cents per 1G1 by the addition of per cent. tankage, while in expert ment H. the tankage lesssened the cost of gains only 16 cents per 100 pounds, but made corn pay out 2( cents per bushel more than where fet without tankage. In experiment l, tankage lessened the cost 2I cents pel 100 pounds. The hogs in experiment were in a dry lot. In experiment | H. they were on alfalfa pasture. IT experiment III. they were also on pas ture Experiment ". is a test of tht breaking strength of the bones O the leg in pigs which had been fec upon corn alone, corn with 25 pc cent shorts, corn with 10 per cent tankage, and corn with 10 per cent ground bone. The tests indicated that both the ground bone and tn, tankage were greatly increased in tn, breaking strength of the bone in tn, animal so fed.

Reports to the agricultural depart ment indicate that the quantity of Win ter wheat sown exceeds that of last year, and gives promise of new high water mark. The New York Produce exchange estimates the yield from the present area sown at 5O3,475,00O bush els, which is far ahead of last years harvest. Of course, much may hap pen during the winter and following spring and summer to affect the wheat harvest unfavorably, so that estimates are largely speculative, but it is req sonable to expect that the larger sow ing will result in a large reaping, anG that the crops of next year will exceed those of last year.

Dear Sir: Replying to your inquiries
of February 18th 1 would say: The
best water we have is spring water as
it issues directly from its source, and
before it can be affected by surface
water, vegetation or earth. The springs
referred to are those of Nuuanu, Pauoa
and Palolo valleys. The quantity is,
however, insufficient for the city sup
ply.
The next best is artesian water
which comes from such great depths
that contamination is impossible. The
water is somewhat "hard," but only
when compared with our surface
waters: in comparison with waters or
dinarily termed "hard" it is a "soft"
water.
Surface and reservoir waters are be-
low the others in quality, as they
contain at times the dangerous ele-
ments, i. e., total ammonia, free am
monia and albuminoid ammonia, at
times below the standard percentages,
at times above. You will note, how
ever, that the reservoir waters meet
the most exacting standards under nor
NAL conditions
Filtration would very materially i'm
prove surface and reservoir waters
Effective filtration is impossible for
storm waters. Only after impounding

wise it defeats it's own purpose.

of the above statements as can be
given.
