Scotch Breakfasts.

DR.. Redgill. in Susan Ferrier's "Des-
tiny" dwells on Scotch breakfasts
with gusto. After proclaiming that
Scotland in general is "a perfect mass
of rubbish" and the cookery not 6t
for dogs. he adds: But the break
fasts. That's what redeems the land,
and every county has its own peculiar
excellence. In Argyllshire you have
the Lochfine herring-fat, luscious and
delicious, Just out of the water, falling
to pieces with its own richness, melt
ing away like butter in your mouth.
In Aberdeenshire you have the I'm
nan haddock. with favor all its own,
vastly relishing, just salt enough to
be piquant without parching you up

How He Did 1t.

ssWhen was connected with certain
Western. railway" says prominent
official OF an Eastern line, tive had in our
employ brakeman who, for special
service rendered to the road. was granted q
months vacation. He decided to spend
his time in a trip over the Rockies. We
furnished him with passes.
ssHe went to Denver, and there met q
number OF his friends at work on one OF
the Colorado roads. They gave him
good time, and when he went away made
him present OF mountain goat.
"Evidently our brakeman was at loss
how to get the animal home with him, as
thsexpress charges. were very heavy at that
time. Finally, however, hitting upon q
happy expedient, he made out shipping
tag and tied it to the horns of the goat.
Than he presented the beast to the Office
of the stock-car line.
swell, that tag created no end OF
amusement, but it served to accomplish
the end OF the brakeman. 1t was in
scribed as follows:

Intelligence Of insects.

The mental processes Of the horse
and the dog are those Of man in much
lower degree. in the view Of Professor
N. A. Harvey Of Michigan, but the in
telligence of insects must be Of very
different kind. The double nerve cord
and gangila differ both in structure
and position from the brain and spinal
cord of man. Insects eyes are i'm
movable and compound and perceive
motion and color, but not form. Ants.
bees. wasps and other insects have not
hearing. Taste and smell cannot be
identical with those senses in man, and
feeling is perception through touch
hairs instead Of the skin. But insects
have very acute senses that we do not
possess. A cecropia moth can perceive
a female a mile or more away, al
though man could not detect 1t un-
der the same conditions at distance
Of more than six inches, and ants, bees
and wasps seem to have other senses
located, like this, in the antennae. Diff
fering from man in general structure.
with shorter lives and different living,
the insects have intelligence that.
though of a high order. is not easy
for us to understand.-New York

ships Of stone. .

The monks OF old tell with wonderment
how the early missionaries crossed the
seas in ships OF stone. In such craft St.
Columbia is said to have set out from
Scotland or Ireland to evangelize Armor-
lea, as they called the northwest of
France.
That such thing might have been pos
sible we must admit when we consider
our present-day ships OF steel. And that
the stone age for ships has come again we
mnst believe from a reading OF recent
number of Debats describing the success
full efforts OF the Italian engineer, Gabel-
lini, in the construction for the Italian
government of vessel built of beton, Q
species OF concrete used in submarine
work. Is
Gabellini made experiments extending
over several years with small stone skifis,
and found them very buoyant and easy to
navigate. In the vessel be is now build
ing the keel is OF iron. Fastened
obliquely from right to left are beat tim
bers, after the manner Of skeleton of .
boat. Upon these timbers is hxed,a kind
Of wire netting. This is covered with the
beton, and then we have the hull
equipped. There is no necessity, it
appears, for the bottom to be very thick.
The vessel is then light and water-tight.
1t is smooth and polished like marble,
consequently parasites, either Of fish or
moss, are unable to attach themselves to
the vessel, which, it is claimed, is more
durable than if built of iron or wood.
The docks and the bridge are constructed
OF concrete without any carpentry to as
sist them. 1t is further claimed that the
holds and cabins can be more capacious
than in ordinary ships; there is no chance
Of fire and no leakage to be feared. At
least, these are the claims OF Signor
Gabeliini.

The porcuplns OK hedgehog ID one Of our
slow-moving, dall- wittsd and almost fear
less Wild animals. Contrary to what one
might expect, he doss not hibernate, only
stays in his den during the most severe
winter storms. His den is.generally with
In rotten log or among the lodges. He
may b. seen any bright day, stuning him
self with bark and green twigs to carry
him through another severe spell Of
weather.
MICE, MoLEs AND BATS.
Nav England ID the home Of many
species Of mice and moles. Some Of
them hibernate; others are well adapted
to secure living during our hard north
ern winter, and their little tracks may be
seen after every snow storm. A detailed
account Of their habits in winter would
be long and tiresome to the ordinary
reader.
Bats are surely the queerest animals in
this part OF the country. We have sew
eral species, only one Of which is known
to the writer. This is the little brown
bat. He is our commonest species, and
remains with us throughout the year.
Some of the others, it is said, migrate
southwark, like the birds, at the approach
Of winter.
EARLY in the fall the little brown bat re-
tires to some hollow tree or more often to
some old Granny about buildings, where
with others OF his kind, he becomes DOR
mant. They cluster together, heads down
ward, and embracing each other, they
form one mass. This trick is, no doubt,
Of some special advantage to them. The
winter sleep of the bat is long and very
profound.
his tracks may be seen on the snow all
winter.
THE BEAR.
The black bear, still fairly common in
our State, is another good example of an
animal which has perfected this remark
able method Of lf-preservation. After
getting fat on wild apples, berries and other
favorite articles Of diet, all common in
the fall, he retires to some hollow tree or
, (
hole among the ledges and sleeps away
the winter without waking at all. It is
said that he can scarcely be aroused from
his torpor. How strange the world must
appear to him when he wakes in the
springl
In connection with the subject OF hiber-
nation, it is interesting to note that scien-
lists tell us that in hot and dry climates
various animals pass into similar state
during the hottest season Of the year.
Some people will tell us with all earn
estness that some Of the swallows bury
themselves under the mud OF ponds in
winter, in condition OF Information.
They can scarcely be blamed for such an
1 opinion when such an eminent authority
as Cuvier accepted this statement. Recent
authorities state that no birds breathing
apparatus is made to operate under mud.

The final act in the drama was un-

bodies Of two eagles which he found
in the Ten Mile Shanty road about five
miles from here. The head of one of
them had been shaved terribly and the
throat of the other had been torn open.

Deep Sea Rivers,

The bottom currents of seas and

bring amber to our shores. are strangely

In the really deep sea. over 1000 faith

currents which may he described as riv-
ers of very cold water (only four de.
grecs or 50 above freezing point. They

sharply marked off from the warmer

inhabitants are different from those Of

To Cure Kicking Cows.

To cure a kicking cow is often a DIFF.
fcult and tedious task, and unles:
some method of restraining them
from kicking Is adopted more los.
than profit may result through split
milk. The person milking also runs
considerable risk Of injury in some
form or other.
When the cause OF kicking can be
assigned to vice or an acquired bad
habit, the following little arrangement
will be found useful, and, at the same
time, simple, harmless, effective, mex
pensive and easily applied a strap
about one inch wide should be buckled
around each hind leg little above the
hook sufficiently tight to compress the
hamstring
The animal cannot kick, and if file
are troublesome and cause her tC
switch her tail, the best plan is tc
either strap it to her leg or secure il
to one Of the straps with a piece OF
cord. Use the straps every time the
animal is MIXED and after three
weeks or so omit, to ascertain wheth
err a cure has been effected or not

Oats ms n Poultry Food.

Oats make an excellent food for the
poultry, providing they are Of the right
kind. The long, slim oat, with plenty
of husk or hull is poor feed for any
thing but the plump. meaty oat IS a
good feed for all stock, including poul'
try.
Hulled oats for young chickens after
they are three or four weeks old will
help them to make bone and muscle
faster than any other one feed, and
this Is the most desirable element at
this period of growth.
For grown or feeding fowls we have
at most seasons of the year fed one
feed of oats daily with most satisfac-
tory results. We have fed some oats
after boiling them for fall and winter
feeding, but they were of poor quality,
and the boiling was to soften the hulls
rather than because the boiling added
any other value to the oats feed itself.
Boiling is not necessary with good
oats except by way of variety in feed
ing. The best way is to feed them in
the litter, scattered we'll and deeply so
the fowls will have to do considerable
scratching .-Agricultural Epitomist.

FISH FROM THE CLOUDS.
Picked Up on an English Hillside-In-
stances from India.

On Friday last a number Of towns
people taking n walk on the slopes Of
Knockscalbert hill were surprised to see
on the grass near ,iummerhill a large
number of very small rshes, varying in
length from IL to = inches. The fish APP
peared to be the young of the herring,
and their presence on the hill in consid-
cradle numbers created much specula-
ton. v
In August. 1904. shower Of herring
fry was experienced at the head of Long
row, but there was ne doubt rs to
whence the miniature fish had come, for
they fell from above on the hats and
clothing of several men. and at the time
a small black cloud of remarkable dens-
lty was directly overhead.
The phenomenon of fish falling from
the clouds is, says our contemporary, of
more common occurrence than is gen
orally supposed. 1t is undoubtedly due
TO some small fry of fishes having been
lifted from the water and carried over
dry land by what is popularity known
as waterspout.
Many cases are reported from abroad,
and they are common in India. Last
year CaithnesS reported Il shower of
small fishes which were identified as
herring fry, and there was also SINH
lar occurrence in RosSShirc.
Frogs, insects and other living crea-
lures have also been known To be thus
transported through the ar.-Campbell-

MoIes Destroy Crop Enemies.

A distinguished naturalist carefully
examined the stomachs of fifteen
moles caught in different localities,
but failed to discover therein the
slightest vestige of plants or roots.
On the contrary, they were filled with
the remains Of earth worms, Not sat
isfied by this fact, he shut off several
moles in a box containing sods of
earth, on which fresh grass was grow
ing, and a small cage of grubs and
earth worms. In nine days two moles
devoured $40 white worms, 1913 earth
worms, % caterpillars and a mouse
(skin and bones) which had been alive
in the box. He next gave them moth
ing but vegetables. In twenty-four
hours two moles died from starvation.
Another naturalist calculates that two
moes destroyed 10000 white worms or
grubs in single year If this is cor.
rect, 1t Is a strong argument In favor
of multiplying rather than destroying
the moles.
