TURTLE FARM
is PROFITABLE
Acres OF Ponds Devoted TO this
Industry in Japan-Separate
Places for Young.

The place occupied among CASTRO
nomical delicacies by the diamond
backed terrapin in America and by
the green turtle in England is taken
by the "suppon," or the swapping
turtle, in Japan. The three are equally
esteemed and equally high-priced, but
the Japanese epicure has this advan-
.age over his brothers of other lands
-he has no longer any fear of having
he supply of the luscious reptiles ex-
hausted. This desirable condition is
owing to the successful efforts of a
Mr.. Hattori, who has spared no pains
to bring his turtle farm to a high
pitch of perfection and is able to turn
out tens of thousands of these reptiles
every year. His are, so far, the only
turtle farms in the world which are
hishlv sucressful

In general appearance a turtle farm
is, at a first glance. nothing but a
number of rectangular ponds, large
and small, the large ones having
size of $4,000 to 10000 square feet.
One or more of the ponds is always
reserved for large breeding individu-
ais or parents" as they are called.
In Hattori's farm a person goes
around the parents pond once a day
or so and covers up with wire baskets
all the new deposits made since the
last visit. Each basket may be marked
with a date if necessary. This cover
ing serves two-fold purpose-the OBJ
vious one of marking the place and in
addition that Of keeping other females
from digging in the same spot. When
hundreds, or-even thousands, of these
baskets are seen along the bank of
the parents pond" it is sight to
gladden. the heart of an embryologist,
to say nothing of that of the proprfe-
tor.

more than make up in other respects
Another advantage in using oxen in
logging operations is that in the for
est regions of the south the natives
are used to handling them and prefer
them to horses or mules. The anil
mails require little care and attention.
They will stand an enormous amount
of hard work, and, by doubling teams,
great loads of logs may be hauled up
on wagon.
The OK drivers in the Arkansas for
ests are typical natives who possess
many interesting characteristics. In
most cases they are young men. It is
said that a good OK driver has the
making of good logging man. 1t is
the first step in an industry that re-
quires the exercise of much skill and
courage.

ing and rearing pigs of different ages
At the front portion of the interior
is four-foot wide gangway from
which the animals are fed. Just
above the trough are suspended two
gates from the joists overhead. These
are arranged so as to swing forward
and back over the trough to facili-
tate feeding. When the pigs are to
be fed the gates are freed by means
of latch and are swung inward, thus
placing the trough in the entry so
that it may be cleaned out and the
food placed in it without loss of tenn
per and patience on the part of the
farmer. When the feed is put into
the retainer, the gate is swung back
towards the entry room and the hun
CRY animals then have a chance to
get in place by a vertically acting
slide bolt.

The neighbours dog sits out on the

man III the WINDOW looms out and
yells: 'Sh-h-h, you BEAST" The dog
continues to howl. The man again
comes to the window and this time
hurls shoe at the dog. Still the
animal bowls. Another shoe follows.
The next day the mans wife goes

dog bowls louder than ever.

In it is fine line of druggigsts' supplies with salesman to take orders. just like any up-to-date salesroon.

By agreement be- tween counsel June l., 1910 was fixed as the day for the redemption of property. The property in dispute has a frontage of 200 feet on Seaview ave- nue and extends back to Johnson's Creek. being considered a valuable site for manufacturing purposes. At the time the Jelliffe Co. took the second mortgage on the property it was thought that they had purchased it and intended to remove their plant to this city. MT. Quinlan after embark ing in the wholesale business under took other ventures in which all his earnings were swept away, this with his health almost broken combined to make him mortgage his property.

State Senator Fenn asserts that the late Legislature showed a wonderful "independence,' because it so nearly succeeded in Iegislating for the people, and on the most important items lin- ed up numerous minority against the decrees of the lobby. Commenting upon this very ingenious argument the Stamford Advocate says:
 In short, on the main points, while the lobby prevailed, it was only by the ,narrowest margin. The people are en- titled to whatever comfort they can get out of that: they were only beat en by small margin. Hurrah, then for the Legislature and it's ''indepen- dence" It almost, but not quite, took away the business of governing the State out of the hands of the lobby and it even defeated some of the plans of the minor Hobbies, but only suc- cumbed to the big lobby: the lobby which decreed that the utilities bill should be defeated; that the employ CTS liability bill should fail, and that the bill removing the s5000 recover able in cases of death by negligence should not pass.
 A lobby of experts, such as appear
