Careful OF Appropriations.
The fact that the above bill as orig
inally passed by the senate carried an
appropriation or $4,000 Is accepted az
n strong indication that the present
legislature Is inclined 90 carefully scan
appropriation bills generally and espe-
clally those for purposes not absolute

nance OF state institutions, etc. and
the care OF the increasing number OF
state wards.

A REMARKABLE FEAT.

]. w. Wallace, printer, was saved
from being drowned in the bay
through the remarkable endurance
of William B. Kennedy, who conveyed
his limp form mile and half
through the water to land, writes the
San Francisco correspondent of the
New York World
Wallace and Kennedy, accompan-
led by B. w. Jackman, started in a
small boat to row to Sausalito. When
mile and half from San Francisco
they found themselves suddenly in
the wake of an outgoing steamer,
and their little craft was overturned.
Wallace could not swim and he was
sinking when Kennedy went to his
rescue.
The lights of the distant city could
be seen over the long stretch of rest
less water, and the chance of ever
conveying the unconscious man to
safety sseemed remote. Jackmarl
could swim, but doubted his ability
to drag an unconscious man with
him. Still he agreed that II Kennedy
tired he would attempt 1t.
How Kennedy ever managed to
bring his heavy burden for so long a
distance he can hardly explain, but
after what seemed many hours the
Powell street wharf was reached, and
men there assisted in drawing the
heroic swimmer and his limp burden
from the waters of the bay.
For a time it was feared that the
efforts of Kennedy had been in vain.
for signs of life were slow in return
ing to the unconscious man. Va
rious oxpedients were employed to
restore respiration. Finally thrill
of life was detected and soon the
work of rescue was completed.

HOGS PAY THE BEST.

A successful swine breeder says:
While have sheep, cattle and hogs
On my farm, take more interest in
the hogs because they are paying the
best. AT the start l am very careful
not to feed more than they clean
up nicely. l feed mixed ration
consisting of corn, shorts and oil
meal or tankage, and am very careful
not to feed much corn. | make sure
that they have no filthy mud hole to
wallow in, and I also disinfect the
pens and troughs at least once a
month. During the winter l give a
change of bedding as often as the
old one becomes damp and use a
good dip often enough to keep down
the lice. l have found by experience
that hogs taken care of in this way
will seldom, If ever, die of disease"

HOW MUCH TO FEED.

To know how much to feed, first
weigh the food for certain number
Of fowls, and let them eat until the
last one walks away fully satisfied.
Then weigh the portion left over.
The difference will be the amount
eaten. 1t must be remembered, how
ever, that flocks do not eat the same
quantity every day, but the weigh
ing of the food will give you prac-
tical knowledge of about how much
flock will eat at meal. Having
determined the quantity make it a
rule to feed one-third of meal (or
not over one-hal0 in the morning,
so as to make the hens work and
scratch. At night give them full
meal. Never allow any of the food
to remain over, but clean out the
troughs. Also, never give the fowls
anything to eat at noon. .s--.h.ar -

For she knew Of the consequences a

Slowly she filled the bowl of the

puff went straight to her lungs and
she expelled it with violent cough
ing. She tried again with better sue

pretty well, although things were
getting "whirly" in the room. She
blew several large mouthfuls into the
ear of the boy, who began to grow
better. In little while the moan
ing stopped and the boy dropped to
sleep.
But it required the application Of
half a dozen different antidotes all
the rest of the night to straighten the
mother out, and now her husband has

FARM BUILDINGS.

One of the most important farm
economies consists in having build
ings for stock and other purposes

house and clean plank walk from
one to the other. The number of
times day that the distance between

Is so many that they should not be

EATING FEET,

edy for young chicks eating each

many birds from this cause. They

and, so cannot give them free range

Leghorns. A. d. s., Plainfield. N. ].
Answer: The habit of eating each
others feet is often quite prevalent
among young chicks confined too
closely in brooders or brooder run
ways. For want of other employ
ment, they pick at each other, and
as soon as the blood flows, they fol-
low this often to the eating up of
the whole chick. The only way to
stop this is to keep them busy
scratching and hunting in litter for
their food.-The Country Gentleman.

A MOTHERS DEVOTION.

A certain woman living on the
North Side has reached the conclu-
sion that the path of a mother is
sometimes thorny and thickly beset.
One night early in the week. dur
ing the absence OF her husband, she
was awakened suddenly by plaintive
cries from the bed of her small boy.
Hurrying to the child, she inquired
what the matter was. The youngster
was suffering from painful case OF
earache. the first attack he ever had,
and was moaning as though he was
being drawn and quartered. The
anxious mother took down a medical
book and turned to "earache." There
she found several prescriptions, but
they called for medicine she did not
have in the house.

WHAT AN FRESHMAN DID.

Just before sunset on the afternoon
Revere jumped from his foam-cov-
cred steed in front of house in Dur
ham, New Hampshire, rushed in and
informed it's owner, Major John Sui
livan, that two regiments of British
regulars were about to march from
Boston to occupy Portsmouth and the
fort in it's harbor.
In an instant Sullivan made up his
mind what It was bis duty to do, and
within less than two hours by the old
grandfather's clock that stood in his
hall he had gathered his force and
was ready for business.
The party, sixteen in number,
boarded an unwieldy, sloop-rigged
old craft and darted off down the
river to Portsmouth. 1t was a clear,
cold moonlight night, and presently
the crude masonry of old Fort Will
lam and Mary loomed up in the dis
tance, reminding them of the fact
that they were close on to their
quarry.
When within rod or so of the
shore their vessel grounded in the
shallow water, and in silence they
waded to land, mounted the fort, sur
prised the garrison and found them
selves victorious without the loss of a
man or even of a drop of blood.
Securing the prisoners, the patriots
at once broke into the magazine,
where they found 100 pounds of pow
der. The powder, along with 100
stand of small arms, was put aboard
of their craft and taken back to Dur
ham, where it was buried under the
pulpit of the old meeting house in
front of Major Sullivan's house.
Six months later the Battle of
Bunker Hill came off, and it was this
same powder, captured by Major Sui
-livan at Fort William and Mary. that
enabled the Americans to kill so
many of the British in that historic
encounter. Powder was exceedingly
scarce in the patriot army, and Sui
livan, anticipating that such might
- the case, filed "old John Demer-
ett's oX-cart" with the powder he had
buried under Parson Adams pulpit
and sent it over the sixty-odd miles
of rocky road to Boston, where it was
destined to do such good service in
the cause of liberty.
1t was the news of Sullivan's cap
ture of Fort William and Mary that
precipitated the Revolution. After
such daring deed Lexington was a
foregone conclusion.
In the words of another, Sullivan
was the first man in active rebellion
against the British Government, and
he drew with him the province he
lived in In an address on the his
tory of this part of New Hampshire
the Rev. Quint, of Dover, referring to
the attack on the fort, said: "The
daring character of the assault can
not be overestimated. 1t was an or
ganized investment of royal fortress
where the Kings flag was flying and
where the Kings garrison met them
with muskets and artillery. It was
four months before Lexington, and
Lexington was resistance to attack,
while this was deliberate assault. -

| York American.

Sh )uld mohair be sponged before
cutting ALICE i Il

All wooden goods, except some of
the very sheer novelty weavas, should
be sponged before cutting. There
are two reasons for doing this. One
is that unless the material has been
sponged it will be unsafe to use any
moisture in pressing the seams. The
other reason is that cloth that has
been sponsed is not likely to spot
should one be caught in shower.
If there is any doubt whether the
material will permit sponging, try
the process on one corner or e small
piece, to note the effect.

peered in. They saw frightened
gray wolf peeping out from behind

fired and the wolf fell over dead. Its
body was put irto a potato bag.
Meanwhile the rumor had spread
that wolves were running loose in
the park Reserves were called out,
folks in automobiles and others in
sleighs aided in the search. ALI the
park wolves were reported safe be-
hind the bars. Finally a man came
to the police station and asked If a
wolf had been seen, saying his en-
ployer had lost one. 1t was a tame
wolf, brought home from hunting
trip when a cub, and had grown up
as house pet.
Glancing at The dead animal in the
potato bag, he said.
That's him. He got away from the
house this morning and simply went
to take run in the park. He was
as tame as kitten, and if he hadn't
been frightened by The cops he would
have gone home all right

MRS. PURDY's ANSWERS
TO QUESTIONS ON DREssMAKING.

Is braid used on the bottom of
skirts and what is the best way to
apply it? NJ. 7. j.
1t is always advisable to protect
the bottom of skirt with braid. 1t
is best applied fiat, hemming 1t at
the upper edge to the hem or facing
of the skirt, and allowing it's lower
edge to extend less than one-eighth
of an inch beyond the skirt edge.
Braid should be shrunk by dipping
1t in water, then pressing dry with
a warm iron. If wide braid Is used,
it will be advisable to make row
of running stitches through into the
facing, about one-Guarter of an inch
above the lower edge.
