He finds also that, by means OF abun-
dant water applied at the right time,
he is able to support his little family
and lay up some money each year. He
does all the cultivation by hand
wheel plow. Among his crops are
peaches, pulms, apricots. cherries,
English walnuts, chestnuts. small
fruits and all kinds Of vegetables; be
sides these products he keeps quite a
chicken ranch, which yields him $500
to $500. He is well content with the
farming, and says of himself and his
business:
81 am my own horse and plow and
farm hand, and even my own rain
maker. With irrigation and careful
supervision, there is nothing In the
way of profitable producer that can
beat the small farm"

Feeding Tobacco to sheep.

The first suggestion after tobacco

ence for a year. Commenting on this
claim of the doctor, Wallace's Farmer
says 1t will not be necessary to feed
the sheep fine cut, or expensive toDac-
co, but simply stems from the cigar
makers cut up fine and mixed in their
feed in order to get them to eat 1t, as
like most other animals, except men,
sheep are "agin' tobacco as a regular
diet, and must be coaxed with such
mixing. The Farmer, In its comment
finally says:
while we have no experience In
this, we think 1t is entirely probable
that II tobacco is fed literally to
sheep through the winter and in the
early part of the summer. they viii

ment to the Naval Academy, however, he
had been appointed cadet in the revenue
cutter service. He dOnned the uniform

ICE PACK JEoPARDIZES SHIPS
Revenue Cutter McCulloch Sent to
Aid Vessels on Alaskan Coast.

While Washington was sweltering in
tropical heat in the early part of this
month the revenue cutter McCulloch,
Capt. Daniels, was sent from Unalaska,
OH Boring sea, to the aid of vessels In
danger' from heavy ice on the Alaskan
coast.
The revenue cutter service officials in
this city, under date of July 4, received
a telegram from Capt. Morgan, command
ing the Boring sea patrol, stating that the
steamship Ohio had attempted to go from
Unalaska to Nome, but had been forced
TO return by heavy Ice. The captain of
the Ohio reported having sighted seven
steamers and sailing vessel caught In
the ice about seventy-five miles from
Nome and in great danger
Capt. Daniels was instructed TO sail In
the McCulloch to the aid Of the vessels
and to notify Nome. which has wireless
station. of the situation of the ships.
wireless, dated July 10, from the
McCulloch at sea stated that the ship
was then on the edge of the ice pack
about forty-five miles south of Nome.
The McCulloch had spoken two of the
vessels and had found everything all
right aboard them. Later a message re-
ceived by the War Department stated
that the Ohio had arrived at Nome. This
is taken to indicate that the other yes
sells are safe and out of the ice.

mot so warm tomorrow said the

Washington had all that was coming to

1t was the hottest place in the country.

perhaps enviable.
The maximum temperature was Of de-
grees with the humidity up to g. The

prospect that the breeze would not bring
anything worse than was here already,
worse to bring.

afternoon while at LIST and streets

the Homeopathic Hospital and given
treatment. His condition was not seri-

held out was the statement that there
may be slight showers today. There
might have been slight showers yesterday,
but there were not.
However, this could not be directly at
tributed to the weather bureau. 1t was
doing the best 1t could. but its chief,

ances Required by Law.

Inc department of Commerce and La
Dor has sent to collectors of customs all
over the country a circular defining the
equipment required on power launches

ity in the enforcement of the new regula-
lions governing power boats.
The letter states that all motor vessels,
with regard to size or use, must be
provided with an efficient whistle or siren,
foghorn and bell No size or style of
whistle. foghorn or bell is prescribed. pro-
vided 1t is available and sufficient for the

produce a prolonged blast lasting from
four to six seconds.
When navigated between sunset and
sunrise bright white light must be at
the bow of the craft, green light on the
starbOard side and red light on the port
each provided with proper screens. The
side lights must be affixed to the coam-
ings on the side of the deckhouse.

the use of the three-color combinat ion
light. In addition to the lights already
enumerated a white range light must
be placed aft

board two printed copies of the rules
and regulations of navigation, which can

son duly licensed by the local inspectors

gagged in the carrying of passengers for

servers and licensed navigators In all
instances the life preservers must be of

al to the license required for the operator

FISH SCARCE AND HIGH.
Potomac Fishermen Put by Nets in
Disgust and Market Is Empty.

A long time has it been since fish were
as scarce in the Potomac as in the past
month or two Fishermen operating nets
along the river have become so much
discouraged that many of them have
given up and laid their nets away.
Not tenth part of the supply received
from the Potomac last year is sent to the
account for it,
The scarcity seems general along the
Atlantic coast. So small was the sup
ply received by the dealers at the 18th
street wharf market yesterday at noon
there were practically no fish on sale.
Trout and Boston mackerel constitute
the bulk of the fish on the market. Trout
sold at cents per pound, or about SIG
per barrel, and little Boston mackerel at
81 to S. per barrel. These prices are
high.
