British Honduras.

A correspondent yesterday who re.

ish Honduras may have been right as
regards Its modern history: although
the sharp constitutional struggle for
forty years between the imperial an
thor1t1es for Crown colony government
and the inhabitants of the COLONY for
their own elective magistracy shows
that the Indifference might have been
more welcome than interference Rut
IN Its earlier years the British govern
ment could not well take any note Of
the colony.
British Honduras was, in fact. found
ed in 1888 by buccaneers on snanisb

plratlcal gentry could not be dislodsed
by force that the settlement remains

The Ingenuity of Inventors.

The ingenuity of inventors and
manufacturers Is ever at work in the
endeavor to reduce the expense Of
production, and at the same time to
improve the quality of articles having
q large sale. This is not only benef1-
cial to the purchasing public. but 1t
inures to the benefit Of the producer
in increasing sales and preventing
competition. This has been so In the
case of farm machinery. clothing,
shoes, bicycles, ETC., and now 1t Is ap-

principles and improved methods in
their manufacture, and the result is
seen In the ''shrp Shavr" razor, which

the best results are obtained by hav-

Climbing That Affords Diversion fol
Lot Of Captive Green Crabs.

LOT CT CdptIVS AFSSu SsAOss
Fishermen say that starfshes are
gregarious; that you might find on
the bottom an acre covered 50 thick
with them that you couldn't Walk
without stepping on them, but not
find another starflsh for hundreds Of
acres ground.
This characteristic gregariousness
the starf1shes in captivity at the
Aquarium sometimes show, as when
they assemble, as they may, all in
one corner of the tank in the angie,
tightly holding on there, one above
another irregularly, but still close to-
gether from the bottom OF the tank
to the top.
And when they have assembled
thus you may see another curious thing
there. namely. green crabs climbing
from the bottom to the top OF the
tank up this starflsh ladder.
The green crab is net one Of the
swimming crabs. When it goes any
where 1t has to walk or climb, and as
on the bottom 1t walks along, to climb
when 1t comes to rocks or other OBJ
it cannot, however, climb
up vertical wall like that of tank.
But here the star6shes, one above
another in the corner, make with
their bodies and projecting arms cen
venient ridges that the green crabs
can hold ON by; and SO they climb
here up this starfish ladder, finding
n this, 1t may be, seme diversion.

more wary and hide in the depths OF
their bachelor apartments, or in the
deep poorooms, from which they can
not be lured.
They are gregarious in their habits,
running in schools but they stand
by each ether, and it is very unusual
to find a solitary one. Occasionally,
however, a more foolish and overcon

Bachelors are, in reality, the bull

Keep the Chickens Warm.

Fowls suffer more from sudden
'hanges of the weather than thew do
from excessive heat or cold. At this
time OF the year, colds, Group, catarrh
and the numberless ills caused by the
chilling air and stormy weather, are
to be carefully guarded against. 1t
Is well to rely more on the ounce of
prevention" than on the pound of
cure" In this climate a mild sunset
Is often followed by high, cold winds.
See to it that the chickens are pro.
tected at night from these sudden
changes. 1t is indispensable that for
the next few months the fowls be
provided with warm, dry quarters. as
they must spend many whole days in
doors. Keep good-sized box of sand
and coal ashes, we'll sprinkled with
sulphur, for their accommodation in
side. In coping chickens at night it
must be remembered that the want Of
ventilation will prove as fatal as
draushts of cold air.-Weekly Wit

Farm Notes,

Do not allow any strong-flayore,
food, like garlic, cabbage or turnips
to be eaten by cows Immediately af
ter milking.
A very rich cream Is. likely to
paste or thicken in the chlrn. so the,
conclusion ceases. Add enough wa
ter OF the same temperature as the
cream to dilute it so that it will drop,
The care the heifer gets the first
few times she is MIXED determines
in a large measure, whether she is 20.
ing to enjoy the milking operation.
The kicking cow is not born-she is
made that way by the mixer.
Cream that contains too much milk
and is too old will foam. Never add
hot water to cream. 1t should be
taken from the churn and heated nv
placing the pan in pan of hot water
and stirring until the desired temper-
ature is reached.
Ii the crown OF turnips be cut off
and only the bottoms of the bulb civ.

About one-third of the bulb should
be cut away with the crown. which

This. of course, depends on the pren.

Starting Plants Early.

A writer on gardening gives the fol
lowing hints on starting tender seeds,
such as tomatoes, squashes, melons,
and the like: 1T is desirable in trans
planting not to check the growth by
disturbing the roots. A good way to
avoid this is to scrape out turnips, fill
them with good soil, and plant in two
or three seeds, setting them in warm
light place, and keeping them moist
When the weather is suitable, place
these out in the garden at the proper
depth. The turnip will decay, and
the plant will thrive unchecked If
properly cared for. Do not use DO
tatoes instead of turnips. Another
way is to get squares of sods, say six
inches wide, from good, mellow soil,
turn them bottom up, and put such
seeds as squash, melon, or sweet corn,
and treat them in the same way, not
putting out till the weather is quite
warm, and then protecting against
bugs. -Weekly Witness.

Silaqe for Steers.

The progressive feeder Of beef cat.
tie will find that silage is just as i'm
portant in the economical production
Of flesh and fat as the dairyman does
in the economical production Of milk.
Corn silage will furnish cheap sue
culent winter feed for cattle that will
keep the system cool and the appe-
tite vigorous. The quality of silage
fed beef is better than on dry rough
age. In the early stages of feeding a
1000 pound steer can be fed 40 to
80 pounds Of silage and then reduced
to about one half that amount when
on full grain ration and towards the
end of the feeding period.-Farmers'
