Seeks the Garden of Eden.

Professor Clinton McMickle, Kan.
sas scientist and archaeologist, is so
confident that the Garden of Eden was
located in Yazoo county, that he wants
to organize a stock company for the
purpose of making extensive excava-
tions on the farm of w. A. Henry, a
lawyer and planter, about seven miles
south of Yazoo City, for the purpose
Of unearthing the ruins of once
splendid city erected shortly after the
expulsion of Adam and Eve from the
garden
Professor McMickle is positive that
on the Henry farm will be found the
ruins of a. magnificent temple, the
doors of which are of pure gold. Pro
fessor McMickle declares that this was
the site of the ancient city of Posel-
don, destroyed by a conjunction Of
Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter
just 4,235 years ago, on the Sth OF
last November.
Professor McMickle states that he
has conclusive evidence, based on the
book of Genesis and Greek Egyptiona
records, that Yazoo county was the
birthplace of man and it will only be
necessary to dig the required depth
in order to find proof of his belief.

DRYING COWS.

An English dairyman has found 10
his cost, that the usual practice of dry
ing continuous mixers, giving from
twelve to sixteen quarts daily, does
not answer at all. Instead of trying
to dry cows giving large quantities
of milk, he now finds it better to turn
them in a loose box and feed them
on oat straw. BY this means the flow

dry themselves, no evil effects follow,

ping their calves within forty-eigth
hours after the drying process began.
Whenever it was attempted to dry
large mixers at once, the organs be-
came inflamed. Dairymen will find it
highly important to pay particular at
tention to their cows, especially those
of the Jersey and Guernsey breeds,
which are great mixers.

EATrENING CHICKENS.

The fattening of chickens can be
fastened in many ways, but the part
grain diet is the safest method. If
only a small number of fowls are to
be fattened, quick results can often
be obtained by feeding them on baked
Johnny cake or corn meal, with an
occasional scrap of beef containing
fat, or pork cracklings. 1t would be
too much trouble to feed a large num-
Der of chickens on such diet. Heavy
mash feeding exclusively should not
be tried by novices, as the fowls are
often not in condition to stand it.
1t doesn't pay, as a general rule, to
try to fatten old hens. When they
have completed their service for you,
it is better to dispose of them at once.
If it is desired to fatten old hens, how
ever, they should be confined closely
and fed ration similar to that they
received when laying. If more corn
and meat foods are added, be careful
not to give them too much, as old hens
cannot stand as much heating food as
young chicks, says Journal Of Agri-
culture

[E SUGGESTIONS ABOU
BUILDING.
SOME

Prof w. r. Graham, of the Ontario
Agricultural College, who has been at
the head of the poultry experiments
for number of years, lays down some
very pertinent points in building poul-
try houses and in the inside arrange
ment. It is his opinion that every
hen should have at least six square
feet of floor space and that each bird
of the Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte and
such breeds, require about nine inches
of perch room; Leghorns, etc., about
eight inches; Brahmas, ten inches
Roosts should be made low and near
the ground. The reasons are that
heavier breeds cannot fly up on high
roosts and lighter breeds frequently
injure the soles of their feet in jump
ing from high perches. When drop
ping boards are used they should be
moderately low down to admit of
cleaning. They should be made of
matched lumber and should be twenty
inches wide for one roost and three
feet for two perches, the first being
placed eight or ten inches from the
wall. Most poultrymen like perches
two inches square with the corners
slightly rounded.
Nests are usually made from ten
to twelve inches square. Ground floors
are more in favor than board floors
and cost less. Houses with a straw
loft are cool in summer and dry in
winter.

One of the grimmest examples is,
that of the French criminal condemn

of public execution or of being priv

his familys feelings he chose the lat
ter alternative. He was placed upon a
table in his cell, he felt pricking SEN

WHEN PEAS FAIL.

When peas fail to terminate the
cause may be due to deep covering.
1t is the practice with some to put
the seed in deep because the plants
will then endure a dry spell, but an
inch of dirt is sufficient. If it Is de-
sired to have the seed planted deep
open a furrow with hand pillow, plant
the seed, covering with an inch OF
dirt, and after the plants are well up
add more earth to them until the fur
row is filled.-Philadelph Record.
DIFFERENCE IN MILK YIELD.
A difference of only one quart OF
milk day for 10 months between two
cows amounts to 800 quarts, which
will be worth from $40 to 500, accord.

This fact should convince all who sell

NAIL WOUNDS IN HORSES FEET.

NAIL WOUNDS IN HORSES FEET.
1t has long been known that nail
pricks and other similar injuries in
the horses hoof may lead to an in
lection followed by the formation Of
pus under the horn of the hoof, and
a serious general disease of the horse
or at least the loss of the hoof.
In a bulletin of the South Dakota
Station, Moore has recently reported
results obtained in number of cases
from applying strict antiseptic treat
ment to injuries of this sort. The
method consists in pairing away the
horn of the hoof from the affected
part until the blood oozes out. The
hoof is then thoroughly washed in a
solution of bichloride of mercury, in
the proportion of one part to five hun
dred parts of water, after which absor-
bent cotton saturated in a solution Of
the same strength is applied to the
wound and the whole hoof is packed
in cotton surrounded by bandage,
and well coated with tar. This pre-
vents any further filth from coming
in contact with the wound.
The operation must usually be done
by a qualified veterinarian. Suisse
quent treatment, however, can be ap-
piled by the average farmer, since all
that is necessary is to pour little
of the solution of bichloride of mer-
curry upon the cotton which projects
from the upper part of the bandage.
The cotton will absorb enough of the
solution to keep the wound moistened
and hasten the healing process. If
a remedy of this sort is not adopted
in the case of foot wound in the
horse, the owner runs considerable
risk of serious infection either of
blood poisoning or lockjaw.

AL day do We =
Women and anxious men
Sit at the mercy Of the tireless loom.
Threads bright as sun on sea
And gray as rain
Slip from the restless skein
Into pattern that we do not see.
Our narrow room
Echoes to flashing shuttle and whirl-
ing wheel.
The deafened soul has little leave to
How fair the fair world is
With sun and bloom.
The taskmaster
Sits watchfully alone.
Bear this: and the pale dame puts
smile on cheek
To hide the grief in her:
Do this: and soon
The rough drudge fronts the noon:
And this: and men plod on with no
demur.
They who are weak
Fit strength to task and labor as they
may,
Having no other choice than to obey
The will that is so stern
And far to seek.
Yet even this
The utmost pain, the cry,
The stress-does often flower into
some pure
Rare thing that he would miss
Who travelled by
Idly and happily.
Hearts will fulfil themselves and find
their bliss,
And we endure
In soul and mind and body the strait
And wear the loom dust and the stain
Of the soil
With strong faith that grows
Daily more sure.

THE AUSTRALIAN LYRE BIRD.
Far More Musical Than the Peacock
Other STRANGE Traits.

Far More Musical Than the Peacock
Other Strange Traits.
One of the fullest and most inter
esting descriptions of creature
found only in Australia is reproduced
in the latest volume of Smithsonian
reports. The account originally APP
peared in a periodical devoted to or
astrological topics, THE Emu of
Melbourne, and comes from the pen
of A. E. Kitson. The author ex-
plored the wilderness where this re-
markable rival of the peacock resides
and obtained number of photo
graphs.
The popularity for which the Tyre
bird is best known is the shape OF
the tail of the male. The outer feath-
ers are broader than the others and
curved so as to resemble an ancient
Tyre, while the central ones (about
a dozen in number) are straight and
slender. None of Mr. Kitsons pic.
lures show this feature properly dis
played, perhaps because Me did not
catch a glimpse of it at the right
moment. Some accounts declare that
the full plumage of Tyre bird is de-
veloped in about four or five years.
Mr. Kitson quotes another writer as
believing that eight years are neces-
sary.
A characteristic which is probably
not so we'll known as the tail of the
Tyre bird is it's habit of dancing in
order to court the favor of observant
females. Open spaces about three
feet in diameter and scratched pretty
clean are selected for this purpose.
On the only occasion when Mr.. Kit
son actually observed the perform
ance he saw two male birds engaged
in it, presumably rivals of each other.
They were alternately advancing
and reeeding," he says, turning,
bowling, whirling. hopping and run
ming about on the ground. While do
ing this they raised and lowered their
tails repeatedly. Sometimes they put
their heads through their tails and,
turning them, seemed to be admiring
the Tyre designs on them. At the
same llL1C lAOy "SAO ~ AoSAAS~ SNO
d1ed tones, whistling beautifully and
mimicking other forest birds"
The Tyre bird appears to be a re-
markably clever imitator of other
sounds, and especially of the songs
of birds. 1t will reproduce the notes
of the thrush, maybe and wren to
perfection. When it mimics the So
called laughing jackass, bird whose
note is harsh and grating, it i'm
proves on the original. Again, dt
reproduces the crack of a coach driv-
er's whip and the noise of saw
and axe so admirably as to deceive
any listener who does not know where
these sounds really come from.
The female Tyre bird lays only one
egg annually. This is covered with
Unlike blotches. 1t has been assert
ed that a nest is always deserted
if the egg in it is touched by hui
man hands. Mr.. Kitson is able to
say that such is not always the case,
for ne visited one particular nest six
times, and ON the last occasion found
that the egg in it had been Matched
only a short time.

FOR DRIFTING SANDS.

Awnless bronze grass (bromus iner-
mis) will be found excellent for use
on drifting sands. 1t is perennial,
looks somewhat like blue grass and
is suitable for light, dry, poor soils.
and resists dry weather. About 15
pounds of seed per acre should be
used. 1t spreads by creeping under
ground stems or root stocks. 1t will
not thrive on wet soils. While not
as valuable as many other varieties,
yet it serves well on light, sandy soils
upon which no other grass will grow.
