Schools Of Traction KnSineerin8 Bet
ter Engineers for Farm
Machinery.

At some time in the life OF every
young man comes desire to run an
engine. The fever may be OF short
duration or 1t may be SO deep seated
as to be a controlling factor in his
life. In either case there has been
little opportunity up to the present
time for a rational satisfaction Of
the same. Every other trade or pro-
fession has had Its schools, but the
men who run engines, particularly
farm engines, have been left to OBJ
tain their knowledge through years
of experience or from books.
This, however, is about to be
changed. Recognizing the great
need of practical instruction on farm
engines, both steam and gasoline,
Schools of Traction Engineering
have been organized at Madison,
Wisconsin, under the direct charge
of Prof. d. d. Mayne of the School
of Agriculture, University of Min
nesota. Their plan OF work as
outlined by Professor Mayne is sim
Pile, instructive and very practical.
In order to reach the majority Of
those interested they will hold four
schools during this year, the first Of
which is now in session at Wichita,
Kansas, with one hundred students
enrolled the first week. Other
schools will be held as follows: In
dianapolis, Indiana, in May; st. Paul,
Minnesota, in June, and Fargo,
North Dakota, in July. Each school
last four weeks, in which time the
student is instructed in all branches
OF engineering, mounting the foot
board, and actually operating the
engine under all conditions. From
twelve TO fifteen engines, steam and
gasoline, are used for demonstrating
purposes at each school.
This would seem a splendid OPP
portunity for the man seeking knowl-
edge of farm power machinery. Full
particulars may be had by writing
direct to the Schools of Traction En-.
gineering at Madison, Wis.

NOT THE FArTED CALF.
This Is a Different Parable sut .,
Brought Desired Results.

A good story is told of a couple OF
farmers living few miles apart. One
day one called on the other, happen.
ing around at dinner time. The per.
son called upon. by the way. was
rather a penurious old fellow. He
sat at the table enjoying his dinner
The visitor drew toward the table
expecting the old farmer to invite
him to dine. The old farmer kept on
eating.
What's the news up your way
neighbor? No news, eh?"
Presently a thought struck the Wis.
itor. We'll. yes. friend; did hear
OF one item OF news worth mention,
ing"
"Ha! what Is it,"
"Neighbor John has a cow that has
five calves"
Is that so? Good gracious! What
ip thunder does the fifth calf do when
the others are feeding?"
why, he stands and looks on, Just
as do, like a dumb fool"
Mary, put on another plate,
drawled the farmer, as he caught the
point.-Judge's Magazine Of Fun.

ALL CATS GIVEN SALUTE.
For rs Years Soldiers in INDIA Paid
Honors to Pussy.


In Poona, ct the government house
for more than a quarter Of century
every eat which passed out OF the
front door at dark was saluted by the
sentry, who presented arms to the ter.
rified pussy.
1t seems that In 1888 Sir Robert
Grant, governor OF Bombay, died in
the government house. Poona, and on
the evening Of the day of his death a
cat was seen to leave the house by
the front door and to walk up and
down a particular path precisely as
the late governor had been used to do
after sunset.
A Hindu sentry observed and, re-
ported this to the sepoys of his faith.
and they laid the matter before a
priest, who explained 10 them the mys-
terry OF the dogma OF the transmigra-
ton of souls.
In this cat" he said, was reincar-
mated the soul of the deceased Gov.
Grant and 1t should, therefore. be
treated with the military honors due
to his excellency."
AS, however. the original sentry
could not identity the particular cat
he had seen on tks evening of the day
OF Sir Roberts death, it was decided
that every cat which uassed out of the
main entrance after dark should be
saluted as the avatar Of his excellen-
cy.
Thus. for over quarter OF cen
tury, every cat that passed out after
sunset had military honors paid to It,
not by Hindu sentipels only, but
such is the infection of a superstition
by Mahonmetan. native Christian
and even Jewish soldiers.-South

It Is strange that not one person In
a thousand knows how to help a man
on with his coat or lady with her
jacket. They all make the mistake Of
holding the garment too high, espe-
cially the last sleeve. They lift 1t
so that a man nearly dislocates his
arm reaching for it. The more fu-
tilely he grabs and claws and lurches
for It the higher they hold 1t, until
the wretched victim would have to get
on a pair of silts to find the arm
hole.
The proper way? Why. hold the
coat so that the armholes are as low
down as the mans waist-taking care
to keep the skirt Of the garment OF
the floor, of course. II there Is any
struggle to find the last armhole, drop
it still lower; never raise it. Drop 1t
until his hand slips into 1t naturally.

Drown went to Washington, ID. e., where
they stayed several weeks, and spent the
rest of the season in Virginia. In October
they returned to Southern Pines, where
they lived until Mr.. Dcown's death.
Melvin Drown was the son of the late
