NATURES SAFEGUARDS.

Nature has great variety Of meth
DDS for protecting her creatures from
their natural enemies, thus enabling
them to thrive under the environment
in which she has placed them. TO the
naturally timid deer she has given
great power of endurance and fleetness
Of foot; to the inoffensive bird she has
given the power Of fight, while the
slow going turtle has been given a coat
of armOr into which it can withdraw
at will and which serves as an effec-
tive protection against its enemies.
Many varieties Of birds and animals
are provided with q coat Of feathers or
fur which renders them almost invisi-
BILE when they are in their natural
haunts, these coats in the case Of both
animals and birds changing from the
dun color Of autumn to the white Of
winter. There Is hardly an animal or
bird of any variety whose characteris-
tics and habits Of life do not offer an
intensely fascinating and profitable
field for investigation and study. True,
it Is not possible for one to cover a
wide field, but it Is within his power
as we'll as his privilege to make some
exploration in the realm which lies
close to his hand, under his feet and
within the range Of his own vision.

VALUE OF OUTINGS.

While there is little question that
there are many folks who spend en-
tirely too much time gadding about the
country both from the standpoint Of
their own welfare and business sue
cess, there would seem to be an even
larger class who suffer almost as much
from sticking too closely at home and
becoming enslaved to a monotonOus
round Of duties. Too close application
to ones work not only tends to mar
rowness Of view, but is likely to warp
ones Judgment as to the relative value
Of things. The world is big and broad
and its interests varied, and it does
one good to get out into it as often as
means and time will permit. While
such outings may cause one to place q
lower value on the work he may be
engaged in, yet they help him to real
lie that, whatever his occupation, life
10 well worth the living.

FRESH OR sTALEI

A series Of experiments conducted
by the Ohio experiment station during
the years from 1897 to 1908 yields inter-.
esting and practical data relative to
the loss which is sustained by manures
as a result of teaching and exposure
to the weather. Portions Of land lying
side by side and similar In every re-
spect were treated yearly, the one with
leached and the other with fresh sta
BILE manure. During the seven years
the first tract raised an average Of fif-
ty-one bushels of corn, 1876 bushels Of
wheat and 1852 pounds of hay per
acre. The second tract, on which the
fresh manure had been scattered, yield
ed an average Of 56.61 bushels of corn.
1850 bushels Of wheat and 2,495
pounds of hay per acre. A comparison
of the corn yields on the two pieces
shows that the land treated with fresh
manure yielded So bushels more corn
per acre than that on which the stale
was used. This additional yield was
worth, if fed, 40 cents per bushel, Or
1920, or from one-half to twO-thirds of
the rental value Of the land. Were
fifty acres to be treated in the above
manner with fresh manure the gain in
crop yield would more than pay for a
first class manure spreader in the
course of one year. There is meat in
these figures for every man who tills
the land. --.-.

THE HOME SEEKER.

When looking around for a place to
locate permanently it is good idea
for the home seeker to ascertain how
far the point where he plans to locate
is from a central market where he can
readily dispose Of the products of the
soil at a good price, which will give
him a margin above cost Of production
and transportation. There are many
places in the west and south where the
soil Is possessed Of remarkable fertil-
ity and produces choice things in the
line Of fruit and vegetables which are
worth little or nothing because Of their
perishability and the distance from a
suitable market. When the ubiquitous,
loquacious land agent recounts the re-
markable richness Of the soil in this
or that locality it is we'll to get his a6-
davit relative to the margin Of profit
that remains to the tiller Of the soil
after the transportation charges are
deducted.

HOG RAISING.

As general thing, large returns in
any enterprise are attended by CORE
spending risk and possibility of finan-
cial loss. The truth is well illustrated
in the matter Of exclusive hog raising.
No question that there is more money
in this line Of animal husbandry than
any other, but where it is followed ex-
clusively fellow is continually face
to face with the loss Of whole sea-
sons labor and profits as the result Of
a cholera epidemic. For this reason
the prudent farmer, although possess
ing some hankering after speculation,
aiversif1es his stock raising enterprises.
with the result that If his herd of hogs
Is wiped out he still has the dairy cat
tie and sheep to fall back upon and
tide him over his financial loss.

THE FARM BOY.

In great majority Of cases unless
the lad in the country home is given
little appreciation and lots Of abuse he
will find going to the large city, where
he hopes to be more independent and
to have better opportunity to make
his way in the world, only delusion
and snare, not fulfilling his expecta-
lions in business way and tending
only to scar and benumb his finer sensi-
hlities. He is as the moth attracted
by the glitter Of the arc light that
seeks it knows not what and Is finally
overcome and perishes from the fierce
tight and heat.

Live Stock Breeding.

In breeding all classes of live stock
we must ever keep in mind that sue
cess will be valued by the actual value
of the products and the profits to be
derived from them. The animal is
simply machine whose duty or work
is to convert raw material into finished
products. If we can by any means or
system OF breeding reduce the amount
of running expenses of this machine,
we have accomplished something OF
value in animal breeding. If we can
by amy means of breeding SO perfect
this machine that it will turn out a
more valuable product, we have ac-
cOmplished much. For illustration.
if we. can produce a type of animal
that can be maintained on less than
the average ration it will be more
profitable, or if we can produce a meat
animal with a larger amount of high
priced cuts than the average animal
we are selling our raw material I'm a
better market There is no subject of
more vital concern to the farmer than
improvement in his methods of breed
ing animals. We cannot study this
matter too carefully. We must always
have utility for our watchword.

Eeedinn Sheen.

a flock of sheep near me was ailing.
None had died, but more than half Of
them were apparently not far from this
condition. The whole trouble was in
the feeding. Oversupply was apparent
all over. The sheep even had easy &C
cess to the feed room, where the floor
was covered with meal. The result
was that the sheep, preferring to feed
in that way, ate none at the troughs,
but spilled it on the floor, SO that it
went out with the manure to enrich
the manure pile. The owner, wealthy
man, grumbIed at the cost of the sheep,
but could not recognize the condition
until it was pointed out to him. and ne
then saw through the whole train OF
errors. A little lecturing to the man
aSer and sonlo l:Scful suggestions were
sufficient to show how the condition
should be chlaeeG and new method

BUILT FOR ETERNITY.
How the Romans Constructed Their
Fine Highways.


Archer B. Hur1bert in the Chautau-
guam says regarding the cost and
methods of building the much quoted
Roman roads:
"a careful estimate shows that tire
Romans spent from $4,000 to 100000
per mile on their roads, yet Europe
knew no road building worthy of the
name from the fall Of Rome, about 400
A. D., to the coming of Napoleon S
Tresaguet, 1,4O0 years later. For a
millennium and half the roads OF
these men who built for eternity were
the best roads in England. Europe and
Asia Minor, and, though many of them
quickly disappeared if neglected, a
large number remain to this day, and
a much larger number have served as
the foundation of modern roads. One
road which Bergier examined in France
was raised twenty feet above the sur
rounding country, and vertical incl
sion revealed the following sections:
section l. A fill of sixteen and half
feet
Section 2. A foot layer of fat stones
and cement
section g. A foot layer of fat stones
without cement
Section l. A foot layer of firmly
packed earth.
Section ). A half foot layer of small
metal in hard cement.
''Section g. A half foot layer of large
metal and cement.
'Tne width of Roman roads varied
from 120 feet at home to fifteen or
twenty feet in England. The lesser
width made a great reduction in orig
inal cost as well as in cost of main
tenance. In the case of the narrow
roads ON the island the work was well
done
s. The burrows were first made,
writes w. B. Paley, at the proper
distance apart: the earth between was
dug out for foot or two, and the bot
tom rammed and beaten down tightly
Upon this the first stratum OF material
was laid and the lime poured over it.:
then larger stones were placed upon
that and the interstices filed in with
mortar, after which sometimes came
another layer similar to the bottom
one. The whole was often three feet
thick or more and was rounded in the
center to prevent water lodging upon
IT."

TROUBLE NOT YET OVER
Deputies Have a Clash with w. f.. NJ.
Strikers in the Minnesota
Mine Region.

Superior, Wis, Aug, 2S.-A demon
stration by the striking members OF
the Western Federation of Miners
took place at EveIeth, and it is thought
that about 100 miners were prevented
from going to work before Chief Kent
and deputy sheriffs arrived upon the
scene and dispersed the stikers. Sew
eral Of the latter were injured in the
clash with the officers
The mines are in a badly crippled
condition, as can be seen by the way
the shipments Of ore to the docks are
held up. The boats are constantly be-
ing delayed by the non-arrival OF ore
from the mines and the shipments will
fall far short Of the record expected.
