BARNUM's OLD LION.
How the Great Snowman Turned Hi.
Death to Account.


Death to Account.
Among the features Of the parades
of the Barnum circus there was for
merly one that never failed to attract
attention On the top of one Of the
wild beast cages lay an enormous lion
He was not confined in any way. and
nervous people watching the parade
would shudder at the sight and con
template the terrible possibility Of the
lion springing into the midst of the
crowd.
But the venerable old king Of beasts
had reached the leonlne dotage, and
stitfened muscles and blunted claws
rendered him harmless. He was as
mild as kitten and in the winter
quarters. where he was allowed to
roam at will. sometimes had to be pro
tected from the onslaughts Of irrever
ent and mischievous puppies.
One right he wandered from the
quarters. In the course of his travels
he CHANGED on barn where q meek
eyed COW was placidly chewing hel
cud. A faint flicker Of the slumberine
Jungle spirit stirred hts pulse. and
with crashing blow OF the huge fore
paw, the COW was slain; then. lying
down beside his victim. he went tc
sleep and dreamed Of the time when he
was shaggy little whelp playing with
his brothers under the bright sun Of his
farof African home.
In the morning the owner Of the COW
stalwart female with the blood OF
Irish kings in her veins, entered the
barn with milk pail in hand She was
filled with wrath at the sight that me-
her gaze. With keen edged az in hel
hand and grim determination in bel
eye she fearlessly approached the sleep
ing lion. and when the men sent out t.
search for him arrived he lay cold IL
death. Barnum promptly paid for Tx
dead COW and engaged to appear OF

THE POTATO CROP AS A TEST.
Useless to Prepare the Ground and Plant
Rninous Neglect Follows.

1t does ME good to get home after
several days of absence and see my
potatoes full of of life and energy,
with such wealth of tops that one
shudders as the horses aud sprayer
go wandering through. when over
some parts Of the state one looks in
vain for even a decent field. They
are either half grown or dead with
blight, or tip burn. We have alreaoy
applied about five hundred gallons of
bordeaux an acre, and shall continue
to spray for at least three weeks
more using an amount to be governed
by the weather. We are each year
using more and more.
When one has made the land in
every way fit for an onion bed with
a high fertility, the cost of applying
and making few hundred gallons Of
bordeaux is an exceedingly small per
centage upon the money invested pre-
viously in the crop.
want to say plainly to hundreds
of potato growers that they will al
surely be driven out of business by
the fungous growths and insects q

out by oleomarRarine. have salt

It makes fellows heart ache, il
this day of good prices, to see field
with brown streaks where the row
were planted and nice row of greel
grass and weeds showing up strong

to say these things of ones own stat
and locality, but it is the truth.

The Oldest Treaty.

The Oldest text Of real treaty now
In existence Is that Of the convention
between Rameses H.. king Of Egypt.
and the Prince Of Kheta, which en-
braces the articles Of u permanent Of
fensive and defensive alliance. with
clauses providing for the e1traditton OF
emigrants, deserters, criminals and
skilled workmen. This treaty was
drawn up In the fourteenth century
B. c. and is the earliest record that
we have of any international transac.
ton.

PICKING OUT THE LAYERS.
Points ty Which an Experienced Poultry Man
Says They..May Be Known.

Dairymen to make the greatest
profit, build up their herds through
careful breeding, careful buying and
unmerciful cu'ling They do not ask
the good ones to average up record
for the poor ones. This same "com-
mon sense" plan can be protitably
applied to the poultry business. The
hens that lay 200 eggs in a year
should not be averaged at $50 eggs
with hens that lay 100.
Any experienced, close observing
koultry raiser knows, at glance,
the laying hen, the small feminine
neck and head count again: the
bright, alert eye tells a tale, the
dropping tail tells another tale, and
when she picks her feet up and
pumps them down we have another
pointer.
Successful dairymen practice breed
ing certain animals. To reach the
highest point in poultry raising it
should also be done. How manage
the hens? There are several ways.
The trap nest is practical thing and
would be especially valuable to the
small breeder or to any poultry man
or poultry woman who had the time
or would take the time to manage the
traps properly. Most people know
the meaning of trap nests, but for
the few that might not know | will
mention that they are nests in boxes
that con6ne the hens until the owner
releases them; hence it is known
what hen laid the egg.
And there are other ways to i'm
prove the flock. A close observance
and constancy with them enables us
to know by sight what hens lay every
day and those that lay every othe,
day or do not lay at all; but we must
never lose sight of the fact that the
cockerels are half the flock in breed
ing value. Many Of the same rules
that apply to the racehorse, the COW
or the hen also apply to cockerels.
The small neck and head, the alert
eye and activity are all points in the
right direction.
am one of those who don't be-
iieve that the 200-egg hen will ever
be excelled to any great extent; but
do believe that any ordinary flock
can be improved to a point where the
200 mark will fit where the $50 mark
now fits. If the time ever comes that
eggs records will be a part of score
cards then the word of improvement
will be on.-M. M. Johnson, Clay
Center, Neb.
