HUNTING THE RHINOCEROS.
He Is the Deadliest Foe That the Ivory
Hunter Has to Meet.

ITO my mind. rhinoceros hunting is the
most dangerous of all hunting, bar
none" says Berkeley Hutton, in Every
hOdy's. Il have had a worse time with
rhuos than with lions elephants, lcop-
ards, or buffalo. The beast seems pos
seSSed of sort of dcvillSh cunning: you
can't fool him as you can an elephant.
nor intimidatc him as you can a lion.
Unless aroused, he is timid and nervous
during the day, and particularly So when
alone. But mt night he seems TO lose
absolutely all fear of man. He does not
wait To be attacked. but has an uupcas-
ant habit of charging anything he sees IN
the shape of an enemy, as soon rs he
sees it-and his sight is remarkably keen.
Besides, like the elephant. the rMuoccr-
oS can, when he wants to. show a speed
that is nothing short Of marvellous. when
one considers his huge and clumsy bulk.
| have known cases where rhluo got
sight of a hunter and deliberately stalkca
linn, coming upon him before the man
had an idea that h" was anywhere in the
vicinity. And he always dies lighting: |

A Tale by Elihu Root.

When Secretary Root was at Panama
on his return from South America a
newspaper asked him how long he
thought the American occupation Of
Cuba would last and got the following
story in reply:
"A kindergarten teacher asked class
of boys:
"'Have you a warm coat?
"'Nes.' was the reply.
"'Can you take off your warm coat|
"'Ies'
"IIas bear a warm coat?'
"'Ies.'
"'Can a bear take off his warm coat|
"'No.'
"'Why cannot bear take off his
warm coat?'
This puzzled the Youngsters mo-
mcnt, and then one cub on the back row
yelled:

buttons are" New York Tribune.

w rocking WindmiIIs.

The passing Of the windmill in Eng
land antiquatod by such recent power
producers as the gas engine and cleo
trio motor, has given life to Il new in
dustry-Windmll wrccking. The old
windmill builders understood their
business and meant their handiworll
to last, and SO the dcmolishing of such
structures is no simple task. Many of
the old mills stood 100 feet high and
had eight or nine floors, fitted with
four run Of stones, and contained tons
upon tons Of brick. often these huge
mills stand close to other buildings
and, says Popular Mechanics, accidents
would be inevitable if the wrcckcrs did
not have experience in their tasks.

Summer Work With Poultry.


Hor suns debilitate fowls, increase
the army Of lice, cripple egg production
and cause trouble in many other ways.
You cannot control the sun, but you
can control tie power of ii, as far as
your poultry is concerned.
Provide shade. Tree shade is the
best. but if there are no trees in the
runs then the next best thing is to erect
canopies of some kind.
Have places provided so that the
fowls and chicks cannot only get into
the shade during the hot weather, but
have place of refuge during rainy,
stormy days.
Cut down the supply Of heat-produc-
ing grains in the diet and feed literally
of green food.
AS they mature separate the cock
erels from the pulets and give the for
mer all extra allowance, as they will
stand more forcing.
1t is advisable each week TO gather
up all hens that are becoming broody
and put them in a separate coop where
no nests are provided. With this
change 1t will require but a week to
break them from their broody instincts
and they will 90 back to laying again.
