REsENTs READING OF METER.

Bill and Attacks Inspector.

Dog Notes the Size of Masters Gas
Bill and Attacks Inspector.
Walter Freeman, a gas meter reader
for the Public Service Corporation Of
Montclalr, n. j., is no longer a skeptic
when 1t comes to believing the stories
which he has hitherto regarded as the
product Of the nature fakers." Free
man, who lives In Newark, went to the
house of Charles W. Tracy, on Upper
Mountain avenue, to-day, and read
large figures on the gas meter.
This duty and the appalling figures
set down in a big. red-covered book,
Freeman left the Tracy dwelling and
started across the lawn, whistling glee-
fully. AS he proceeded, he was startled
by growl from a fierce-looklng bull
dog, which, despite its savage appear
ance, Is great pet Of Mr.. Tracy's.
Freeman hurled his meter book at
the dog. The book opened as 1t hurled
through the air and fell at the feet of
the dog. On the open page was record
ed the amazing figures which Freeman
had set down as the basis for Mr..
Tracy's current gas bill. With a fierce
growl, the dog made jump for the
frightened corporation servant. Free
man fed, the dog at his heels. In a
moment the dog sank his teeth In Free
mans leg.
Then he let out howl even louder
than that which goes up from many an
angry victim Of meter readers all over
the world. There was a wild swirl of
dog and man for several minutes, and
when Freeman finally emerged from
the conflict he had been severely maui
ed and chewed.
The bulldog is in possession of the
red-covered book, and 1t Is said that
he has torn therefrom the page which
contained the Objectionable reckoning
made by Freeman.--Kansas City Jour

mulch to counteract drought was
presented to me In rather forcible
manner last spring. We had planted
few rows Of early beans and after
they had come up we had cold SPELL
and In order to save the beans from the
frost, they were covered with planks
After the danger from frost had passed.
at one end Of the rows the planks were
laid between the rows and left for
about two weeks, which was dry sea-
son. At the other end the planks were
moved clear away. The part where the
planks were between the rows made
double the growth Of the others The
growth was evidently due to the mois-
ture saved by the planks.

No Nurse Crop for Alfalfa.

Some people still think alfalfa should
be sown with nurse crop. Those who
have had experience with 1t know bet
ter. A recent publication of the Ari
zona Experiment Station sums up the
facts as follows:
Nurse crops hinder the development
of tops and roots Of alfalfa, especially
when by reason Of thick stand OF
rank growth shading effects are exces
sive. After the removal Of the nurse
crop the weakened and undeveloped al
falfa plants are poorly fitted to with
stand drought and the stand may be
lost. In the average instance the loss
in yield Of alfalfa due to a nurse cror
probably more than offsets return from
the nurse crop itself.

Horses and Mules.
NNNO~~N-NNN~


There has been a rapid Increase the
last few years in the number and value
OF the horses and mules in the United

In 1900 there were 15,624,OOO horses
and mules In the United States Dur
Ing the next FIVE years there was an
Increases OF 27.7 per cent 30 that on
January l, 1905, the number Of horses
and mules had increased to 19,946, 900,
but the increase did not stop at that
rate. On the first Of January, 1907,
there were no less than 23,564,0 900
horses and mules, showing an increase
OF IL per cent during the two years
subsequent to 1905.
Those who are inclined to talk over
production at the present are confront
ed with the indisputable fact that dur
Ing the seven years when the increase
In numbers amounted to 90 per cent
there was also an increase in price per
head amounting to over 80 per cent
Thus on January /, 1900. our horses
and mules were valued at s715, ,6SS, 900,
while on January /, 1905, they were
valued at $2,274,642,000.
This ID phenomenal record and yet,
Notwithstanding this extraordinary in
crease in number ana value, horses are
in greater demand to-day than they
have ever been before in the history Of
the United States.

HOMEMADE MIXTURE SAID TO BE CUR.

Some remarkable stories ge beinp

Here is the recipe and directions for
taking: Mix by shaking well in bot

three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsapa-

after meals and at bedtime.
No change need be made in your

This mixture, writes one authority

kidneys; cleansing the clogged.up pores
Of the eliminatiye tissues, forcing the
kidneys to sift and strain from the
blood the uric acid and other poisonous
waste matter, oy grooming Rheumatism

A New York druggist who has had
hundreds of calls for these Ingredients
since the first announcement in the
newspapers last October stated that the
people who once try it "swear by it. ="
especially those who have Urinary and
Kidney trouble and suffer with Rheu-

Rock Salt for Horses.

For cattle and horses, rock salt
placed in boxes or troughs In winter
and scattered about the pastures on
the grass IN summer is preferable to
any other way. Rains have little ef
feet upon 1t and this will be found
both convenient and economical. For
sheep, however, this plan does moi
work so well. The rock salt Is so slow
to dissolve that they are not able tc
get sufficient quantity of 1t to satisfy
their wants, hence it Is necessary to
use the loose salt for them.
