Seattle, April 5-JuSt before the Japanese liner Shibetoro Maru threw of her mooring lines last night, one of the officers on board induced an unknown white woman 10 go on board with him. leaving Ter child with some people on the wharf. A few moments later the steamer pulled out without returning the woman ashore. The authorities were notiti- ed of the fact and the child. which is too young 10 give it's name. was taken care of. Witnesses on the wharf testified that the woman went on board reluctantly. and il is be- lieved that she was shanghaied. The state department has been notified of the occurrence and assurances have been received from Washington to the effect that the matter will be taken up with the Japanese govern ment before the vessel has time to reach port.

The Nome miners are on strike for higher wages I. seems they have been working for three dollars 6 day. with board, and demand an in- crease of one dollar.

Water and Salt For Cows.

Eight gallons of water a day Is
the average quantity required for a
COW and the milk given is about
eighty-seven per cent. water. In
some pastures there is no water, the
COWS being supplied night and morn
ing, which forces each COW to drink
four gallons at time in order to be
supplied. AS the COW does not know
that she must drink four gallons,
she may use less and she will reduce
her milkpupply accordingly.
Extensive tests and Investigations
have bedn made at the experiment

of adding salt to the ration of dairy
cows. A a result of these trials, it
is recon hended that dairy cows be
given at peast one ounce of salt per
day. Exceptionally heavy mixers
will require more than this. The
uniform }results obtained with all
cows employed in these trials indicate

Ealue of Dead Leaves.

According to tests recently made
in France, dead leaves possess a
higher value as fertilizer for the land
than ordinary manure. They are
extensively used by the market gar
deners about the city of Nantes.
Pear leaves rank next highest in nit
rogenous content, oak leaves come
next and the leaves of vines lowest
in value. Experiments have shown
that forty-four pounds of pear leaves
eighty pounds of poplar leaves, fifty
one pounds of peach leaves, eighty
two pounds of elm leaves and eighty
three pounds of locust leaves are re-
spectively equivalent in nitrogenous
content to 100 pounds of ordinary
manure. Vine leaves alone are less
valuable than manure.

''In 1904 the number was $50, 900,
and these were all for table use.
Last year an increase of about ten
per cent in this number was report
ed. The pheasant is table luxury,
and in England, France, Germany
and Belgium they are reared by the
thousands.
I'm America breeding is but in its
infancy. In ten years, however, we
may be producing enough to supply
the local demand, and prices will be
cheaper than now. The cheapest one
can be purchased now is about so,
and from that figure up to $40 or
SIS is demanded.
''The English and the Monaghan
pheasants are game birds, and an in
creasing demand for them for pre-
serves of clubs and wealthy owners
of country seats is noted. We have
one breeder in the East who supplies
from 1000 to 5000 a season, and he
has to import many in order to fill
all his orders.
'The pheasant is beautiful bird
and by no means difficult to rear or
breed.
Their plumage is in good demand
for millinery purposes. Taxidermists
pay as high as So and $40 for the
skins of the best marked birds
There are varieties of pheasants
that are purely ornamental. They
appeal neither to the cook nor to
the hunter.
"Pheasants cost much in the win
ter months. About September 1 the
breeder adds ten per cent. to this
price. This holds good until April,
when they quit laying. The pheas-
ant is as hardy and as easily rearer
as the turkey, but they are not do
mesticated birds. With the pheas-
ant one is dealing with bird that
is still subject to the laws of the jun
gle and exhibits many of the in
stincts of the wild life from which
they are really but few generations
removed. They are but cousins to
the domestic fowl, and IN habits are
more like the wild grouse and quail.
The longer the breed has been in
captivity the more docile and the bet
ter layers they are." New York
