Washington, D. O., Nov. 5-Repre- sentatives of large financial interests have petitioned President Roosevelt to call an exbra session of congress to deal with the financial condition of the country. On account of the speculations and general rotten ness in the management of certain pig financial installations which have but recently been exposed, loss of confidence is manifest and crisis is threatened. The petitioners say they will not oppose legisiation for federal control of large corporate interests.

900 bushels. Our beet crop was Injured
about three tons an acre. but We
cleared above ail expenses 5000 on nj.

allowing ourselves wages the same as
the help. This does not include the
,oppagc. which VIC use for feeding live
stock and poultry. Nothing makcs
more. swectcr and better butter than

beet tops. The sllo question is n fool
Ish bugnboo. We are willing to silo

doing so. One advantage Of the beet

Farming the vsa- Around.

Eor the Table.

In stead OF vases or bowls for flow
ers that are to ornament the dinner
table the rustic pieces made of silver
are pretty, as well as practical. These
Rre made in various shapes and
forms. and are really several small
vases rising from the same base. the
whole made to represent a cluster

The rough bark is well reproduced
In the silver and the different little
branches are. of course. of irregular
heights and of different sizes.
The effect when each branch or.

Dogs Maternal Instinct

'I have young retriever, gentle.

spondent. Her kindly disposition has
won her much popularity and she Is
loved by the family cat, the green
Amazon parrot and the village chill
dren. A few days ago some poor
little superfluous Aberdeen puppies
had to be drowned. But when the
man went to get the little bodies
to give them a decent burial. two had
mysteriously vanished from the pail
In which they had found a watery
grave. For long time he searched
in vain. much puzzled at the unac.
countable disappearance. until n
servant volunteered the information
that Maggie had two little dogs in
her bed And here we found them.
two little corpses. licked clean and
dry and gently laid side by side on
the straw. She had fshed them out
of the pail and carried them there.
and apparently done all she could to
revive them. She has never had any
puppies of her own, SO this seems a
curious instance of maternal in.

Coyotes Have Rabies.

Coyotes on the plains near Roggen

AZ mango contracted by eating dead
cattle infected with the disease. Two
days ago s. Wiswall noticed a strange
animal OH the plains near his house.
which after shooting he discovered TO
be n coyote devoid OF fur except few
hairs on the back and tail. Later in
the day other coyotes were shot show
ing n similar appearance, which stock
men say IL due to the disease. which
has afflicted the coyotes the same as
cattle. Stockmen say that the sick
coyotes are so stiff and cold In tho
morning that It is an easy matter to
run them down on foot. The farmers
In the vicinity of Roggen and Hudson
are rejoicing because OF the Infection

Ranch Reservoirs

As the dry farming sections OF the
West settle It becomes more ard more
apparent that reservoirs for the mold
ing of flood waters are necessary.
There are few ranches where there are
not natural sites for these reservoirs.
and by their construction and the hold
ing of the flood waters 1t insures the
farmer an Independent irrigating sys-
TEN for the cultivation Of an orchard,
a grove of trees and his garden spot.
1t matters not II the man is engaged In
cattle or hog or sheep raising. and
whether he cares to farm except
enough to raise forage for his stock;
the reservoir should appeal to him
as a matter OF comfort. The grove
about his house. lawn, an orchard or
n vegetable garden adds not only to his
own bodily comfort, but to the value OF
the land. These reservoirs are easy
of construction and 1t Is hopeiui
sign of the semi.arid districts that hun
dreds of them are being built.-Scien'
