Poseidon a Great Horse,

In faroff Australia, where the sea-
sons are opposite to ours. horsemen
are singing the praises Of Poseidon, by
Positano-Jacinth. He has just accom-
plished winning the triple" events
the Derby, Caulfeld cup and the Mel
bourne cup No horse of his age for
years ever won these three big features
before.
Poseidon is considered worthy sue
cessor to Carbine. the great race horse
that won the Melbourne cup, with 145
pounds up. from forty-three opponents.
Since then Carbine's progeny in Aus
tralia and England have made his
name still more famous.
When Poseidon won the Caulfield cup
by three lengths from a field of twenty
four his jockey. T. Clayton. sat perfect
~ still. and never once was the colt
touched with the whip. Considering
that the fields In both the cups includ-
ed all the quality of the common
wealth. the Australian critics are quite
justified when they describe Poseidon
as standing out boldly as one of the
best three-year-olds seen out for many
seasons

A Denatured Alcohol Test.

A careful test of denatured alcohol
was lately made by the driver of an
automobile, who drove his machine
from New York to Philadelphia with
alcohol fuel. He found advantages and
Disadvantages in the use of it. The
auto consumed three times as much al
eohol as it would have consumed of
gasoline, but a part Of the excess was
due to carelessness. The speed was
less than gasoline would have given.
and the power developed was less. But
it is to be born In mind that the engine
was not constructed to use alcohol.
The new fuel is absolutely safe, and
has less disagreeable odor. On the
whole. he got everything he expected
out of alcohol. and, although he does
not expect a general adoption of it for
pleasure vehicles. he foreseeS a large
use of it by the farmers of the west

ANIMAL ODDITIES.

The deer really weeps, its eyes being
provided with lachrymal glands.
The dOgfish as we'll as the shark must
turn on its back to seize its prey.
The talegalla, or bush turkey. of Aus
tralia is perhaps the only bird that
leaves its egg fully feathered.
There is a fish called the chromis,
found in the sea of Galilee. which
builds nests like the stickleback.
The most brilliantly colored quadru
ped is the mandrill baboon. Its nose is
brilliant azure and scarlet, and other
parts of the animal show fiery red and
purple.
An eagle has been observed to rise
from the ground and completely dis
appear into the sky within three min
utes. Eagles sometimes soar to heights
of $4,000 feet or more.
Fishes have no eyelids and necessa-
rily sleep with their eyes open. They
swallow their food whole, having no
dental machinery. Frogs, toads and
serDents never take food except that
lrh:ch they are certain is alive.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
ineuaatins Eggs.

In order to raise chickens success
fully it is very essential to begin with
eggs which will hatch well and produce
strong. vigorous chicks. If the germs
are naturally weak, no amount of atten-
ton and good care during the incuba-
ton of the eggs and the brooding OF
the chicks will make up for the original
lack of vigor. In spite of all that can
be done the hatch will be poor if the
germs are weak, and many of the
chicks which do hatch will die. AS one
cannot determine by an examination
of the unincubated egg whether the
germ is strong or weak, the only thing
that can be done in practice is to Sc
lect the breeding stock with such care
and give it such attention that eggs
suitable for Matching must of necessity
result.-Bulletin West Virginia Station.

AustraIia's Wealth In Sheep

The greatest industry of Australia
10 sheep raising, mainly for the sake
OF the wool, but also in part of course
for the meat. Australia now ranks
second among the great sheep raising
countries, Argentina being first with
a2, ooo, 900 sheep. Australia second with
100000 and Russia third with TO-
100000. But few years ago Aus
tralia was first, possessing no less
than 1O6. 100000 head OF sheep. That
was in 1891. Prolonged droughts We're
the cause OF the destruction of many
millions of Australian sheep. but since
1902 there has been an annual gain.
Yet these sheep were not indigenous
to Australia. They were first intro
duced In 1907. being of the Spanish
merino species.

THE EDiFYING SOLDIER.
Sketch of One of the Great German
Tow Warehouses.

10Y W
The Troedel market is on little is
land in the heart of the old town of
Nurem berg. Along the north branch
of the river is an old, low eaved house
with little darkling doorway. When
you have got so far you are met by n
little old mana rusty little man who
looks as though he were made of metal
who leads you into the great mysteri-
Gus warehouse OF toys.
Round all the walls they are ranged
guns, cannons, motors, steamships.
trumpets, sabers. and everywhere the
soldiers. How many millions of metal
soldiers have marched away from the
Troedel market not even the rusty old
man could tell you-mighty articles of
pewter and tin.
Hundreds of regiments, of battalions,
of divisions, are drawn up on the
shelves, waiting for the day when they
shall be sent out into battle. And
with a kind of pride the rusty old man
says, They are edifying soldiers"
That is the German way of putting
1t. What it means is that each army
illustrates battle or a campaign
the war of Troy, the campaigns of
Alexander the exploits of Occur de
Lion, the war of thirty years. the
siege of Orleans the victories of Ma
poleon, the battles of 1870 and Che
one l liked best that desperate battle
in which a tiny tin hero with gleam-
ing teeth rough rode it up San Juan
hill. In word. the edifying soldiers
teach history, geography, strategy

Hoo House Floors.

A good board floor, one that can be
kept clean and is elevated enough to
allow a circulation Of air under it.
would insure better health TO the SOW
than the dirt floor covered with dust
and dirt, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Where the breeder regularly disinfects
his houses and lots he will find that it
is well nigh impossible to properly dis
infect the dirt floor and it is almost
impossible to keep the bed clean and
dry when 1T is made upon dirt floor.
On the other hand, disinfecting can be
easily and successfully done where the
floor is of plank, and the bed can be
kept dry good deal longer. We have
noticed that in nine cases in every ten
of rheumatism among hogs the farmer
keeps his hogs upon the dirt floor.

q CiGar Store Secret.

Every tobacconist has on his counter
a machine for cutting off the ends of
cigars. These machines are popular
for the reason that they pay for them
selves many times over every year.
The ends that smokers cut off are
carefully gathered from the counter.
and it takes but few hundred of
them to make pound of good tobacco.
This can be sold for 40 or 80 cents.
Some cigar store clerks are very so
licitous TO see that the patron does not
overlook the cutting machine. They
push it toward him. and he is much
impressed with their politeness. These
clerks have for a perquisite the ma
chimes cuttings This adds several dol
lars weekly to their salaries.-New Or
