ANEcDoTE OF JAPAN.

Marian Bonsall, writing IN The
liousekeepsr on the influence OF
flowers upon the Jaranesc nation
explains by an anecdote the feeling
OF the common people toward dumb
animals. The story was told to her
by Miss Helen hyde, the artist, and
the hero Ii her famous cook.
One day when Miss Hyde was en-.
tertaining some friends In the garden
of her Nikko home, some of her
guests spied large snake, and fright.

Uchiama was summoned to dispatch
1t. Taking the serpent in his hand
and looking about quickly to assure
himself he was not seen. he threw IL
into the air, and announced to the
company that he did not know where
II had gone. The snake was soon
discovered wriggIing on the top of
camelia bush where IL had landed
and Uchiama was commanded TO do
away with 1t Immediately. Providing
himself with long bamboo pole, he
poked at the snake. which soon
wrapped itself about the end OF IL.
Uchiama, holding the pole far from
him, at the end of which the snake
stuck out its tongue venomously
thus addressed It:
Snake San, ! viii let you go this
time; but If you come again, like

pieces will kill you: Chop Chop
and go saying, threw 1t Into the
river.

The larger the fair, representing
hle weather. and larger districts
usually the larger and better will be
the exhibits. most especially in the
live stock classes. Competition be
comes sharper. superiority of in
dividuals is more closely scrutinized
and breed characteristics are more
definitely considered. Here the edu.
cational advantages to the locker
on are upon higher plane than
those of the smaller fairs.
The educational benefits of first
class fair are all important to the
exhibitor. All things are good or
bad by comparison. That which
seems in the eye Of interested own
ership to approach perfection as seen
by itself. when brought into competi
tion with superior quality in the show
ring, frequently becomes plain and
unsatisfactory. and the defeated ex.
hibitor is brought to see what con.
stitute necessary characteristics for
a winner.
our best live stock exhibits do more
to fix high and correct ideals in the
minds of interested observers than all
other means in use, the written or
verbal description of perfection In
animal form. the pictured excellen-
cies of famous prize winners, as
shown in our illustrated stock Jour-

To the novice, the great fair brings
the best of opportunities to become
familiar with breed characteristics.
The peculiar color, form and other
distinctive traits or markings of the
different breeds OF horses, cattle,
sheep, swine and poultry can here be
studied from representative selec.

the Judge in charge he may also
learn what constitute points of ex.
cellenee in the various breeds under
consideration.

most of their time to development

Although the altitude of Boneyard

no snow there this winter and the
temperature has only few times been

heavily mineralized, according to
Sprague, and is sure to receive much
attention from mining men within the
next few years. There is sure to be
