Austria 3 new territory Is un-
desirably rich in snakes. mostly OF
the poisonous varieties, and the
government is taking vigorous
measures to exterminate them.
In the ten years from 1896 to
1905, the average yearly death roll
from snake bites in Bosnia and
Herzegovina was thirteen persons
and 1888 head Of cattle, horses and
domestic animals. Besides this,
hundreds of persons were bitten by
snakes, bat recovered.
Since 1906 the provincial au-
thorities have given money
premiums for the killing of snakes.
In that year 30,056 dead snakes
were brought in. of which 25, ,43S
were poisonous. Next year, when
the official reward system became
more generally known, the figures
increased enormously, no fewer
than $50, snakes being killed
including 271 ,685 poisonous.
Last year figures were very nearly
the same and it will be some years
before the work of determination
can be anything like completed !.
But at the same time the mum ber
of persons reported bitten by poison
our snakes seem to be steadily de-
ereasing, 206 IN 1907 and 40 last
year.-Pall Mall Gazette.

FROM DARKEST AFRICA

Strickland Gillian gives out thia
news from darkest Africa, where tar
TOR prevails in the animal kingdom ;
"a good deal of complaint is heard
among the native hunters since the
prospect Of the Americans coming
has set US all by the ears. Ombanga
Wadda, one of our solid citizens, de-
clares that he hasn't been able to
catch enough hippopotamus for a
mess in two weeks, that his gazelles
are holding up their milk, and that
his whole family is practically with
out shoes. He says it will be q great
hardship to have this deadly foreign
er come in and kill everything while
The feet of honest home laborers'
children are practically on the
ground"

Making Money with Chickens.

The only way To succeed in any
business is to start right, and stay
right. The chief cause of failures
in the poultry business is that peo-
pie fail to find ont the breed best
suited To their farm, fail to study
the business like they would any
other business. and, because they
don't keep posted on the progress
made in the business.
The Poultry Show in connection
with the Tri-State Fair at Memphis
September 28-October 9, promises
to do more in the educational way
than any show in the South. Over
So, 900 is offered in cash and tro-
phies, and classes are for every kind
Of chicken, turkey or duck worth
raising. There are classes open to
the world, classes for residents liv-
ing in the Tri-States Of Arkansas,
Mississippi and Tennessee, and
classes for amateurs or beginners,
persons who have never exhibited
chickens in fair. Each breed d
chickens will have its history and
characteristics explained. The most
successful methods Of raising and
marketing chickens and eggs will
also be explained, The practical
operation Of incubators will be dis
played-in fact. it viii be just the
kind of show this section OF the
country needs. If you are interest
ed IN chickens. send for a catalogue
to Tri State Fair. Memphis, Tenn.

What it Costs Not to go to College.

EveryIasting Sorrow: No one
ever went to good business college
with honest intent and serious pur-
pose who did not consider it money,
time and labor well expended.
Thousands who have not gone. re-
gret the fact that they did not.
You can go if you really hunger
and thirst for an education.
Nowhere else will you meet such
choice companions. The earth s
noblest young women are IN the
colleges. and at no other time of life
can you make such strong and last
ing friends. Girls and boys from
our most cultivated homes Assem- bic
annually at our college. If you do
not GO TO college these choice
friendships are lost to you forever.
Do not postpone your going to
college. Youth is the time for
preparation. just as spring is the
seed time. The farmer who does
not plant his seed in the springtime
has no harvest. If he hasn't the
money to buy the seed. he borrows
it. If you haven't the money to
go to college, borrow it, and pay it
back out Of salary earned after
graduation. You can do this.
You can prepare Yourself TO fill
your station III life better-or if
you most earn your living, you can
earn more and choose your occupa-
ton. If you are wealthy, all the
more reason for going to college.
Your wealth may go, but your
education cannot be taken from
you.
Business education is an asset
worth thousands. 1t is an equip
ment for life's work. 1t gives the
power to earn. 1t destroys proverty
and enthrones prosperity. 1t cam
not be lost or stolen.
You cannot afford, dear young
reader, not to attend the Columbus
Business College Of Columbus; Miss.
Remember the words of Chancel-
lor Kent, when he said: The par
ent who sends his son into the
world uneducated, defrauds the
community Of a useful citizen and
bequeaths to it a nuisance.

OVERLOOKED BIT THE READER
appreciated BY the Present
Generation.

Probably a majority of those who
knew Of Donald G. Mitchell as the
author of two or three volumes of
charming essays had supposed him
dead long ago, and were surprised
at the announcement of his death.
For many years hA has lived a re-
tired life at his home IN New Ha-
ven, and if he has occupied his time
in writing it has been by way of pas
time and not for publication. His
books that won him popularity, how
ever, "Reyeries of Bachelor and
Dream Life" could only have been
written by one still young and to
whom life yet offered much-one
with Imagination and hope and ex-
pectation. 1t was so years ago or
thereabouts that he wrote these two
books. Does any one in this genera
ton read them? One seldom hears
them spoken of. If not read, then
why? Their poetic grace and charm
are not of an effervescent sort, but
have lasting quality. Many a
much-lauded book of these days falls
far short of them in merit.

SAMARITAN OF HER RACE.

DR.. Matilda Evans is a colored
woman of Columbia, s. c., who has
established and conducts a hospital
in that city. She was graduated sew
eral years ago at the Women's Medi-
cal college OF Philadelphia, and, re-
turning to her old home, found the
negroes with no hospital, and the
first money she earned was used to
establish such facilities. She took
an abandoned house and had cots for
four patients. The hospital has
grown, and the wealthy whites, in
auenced by her self-sacrifce, have
begun to help her in the work.

Saving the Whole Corn Crop.

There are but two methods OF
harvesting the corn crop in common
use by which the whole plant is
saved and used for feed. The bet
ter one of these is to put the crop
when mature. but while it still con-
tains much of its natural moisture.
into a silo. OF this method we
shall say nothing further in this
article, simply because we have
already discussed it in previous
articles, and few of our readers are
prepared to save any part of their
corn crop it that way.
When the corn is cut near the
ground, and the entire plant cured
in the shuck, the state Of maturity
Of the crop at the time this is done
is an important consideration.
At the time the fodder or leaves
are usually pulled. throughout the
South, there is probably more feed
value in the stover than at any
other time. On the other hand
the ears probably do not have their
highest feeding value until the
leaves have all become dry and the
shucks and a large part of the stalk
are also brown. 1t, therefore, fol-
lows, that if the stover alone were to
be considered, the corn should be cut
OF the earlier stage of development,
and if the ears alone are to be saved !.
the corn should be cut at the later
stage; both are to be saved, and the
entire plant utilized for feed a
period about midway between the
two stages. or conditions stated
should be selected for cutting and
shocking the crop. By careful tests
and analyses this has been found
to be the time when there is great
est feeding value in the corn plant
taken as a whole.
Many of those who have had
their corn fail to cure satisfactorily
in the shuck should unquestionably
attribute their failure to the mis-
take of cutting the corn when too
green.
The method of cutting the corn
which will be found most profitable
and practicable will depend on the
supply of labor, the freedom of the
fields from stumps and instructions
and the size of the crop When the
crop is small or the labor plentiful.
it may be found most economical to
cut the corn by hand. When the
crop is larger or labor less abnnd-
ant, sone of the cheaper Sled
corn harvesters or cutters NAV be
employed. and when still more
work is to be done. and the fields
are in suitable condition, some one
OF the larger and more expensive
corn harvesters may be economical
" used. A corn harvester could
easily do the work required on
several small farms and Joint
OWNERSHIP and cooperation in har-
yestlng the corn crops would in
such case prove valuable. Stark

OFFICE BOY HuMoR.

Some time ago an Office boy, an
swering the telephone for the first
time in his life, and not knowing
how to use it, was told that, when
the bell rang, he was to answer it.
When, therefore, be heard it ring,
he picked up the receiver and
shouted:
"Hello! Who's there"
The answer came back: "T'm
105."
GO on" said the boy. 'Tt's time

HELD BY CHARMS OF PARIS.

Two princes, Souphanovong, son
OF King Sisowath OF Cambodia, and
Ouanilo. son of King Behanzin of
Dahomey, are causing much anxiety
to the French minister of the colo
nies. The young men suffer from q
violent liking for life in Paris, and
refuse TO be educated and trained
in any other part of France. Soup
hanoYong absconded from his school
at Bandol, in the department Of the
Var, and came to Paris. He is be-
heved to be somewhere in the capi-
tai, but no trace of him can be
found. Ouanilo fed from a Mont
pelier school, and has informed the
minister that he will commit suicide
if he is not allowed to reside In
Paris. The minister threatened to
cut off financial supplies, but Ouani-
10 replied that he would then become
. beggar in the Paris streets.

TOAD UNFRAMED BY PRESSURE


An experiment was recently made
in the clay-testing department Of o
machinery company at Bucyrus, O..
IN which toad was placed in q 20
ton brick press and was four times
subjected to q pressure Of 1900
pounds without injury.
The question at issue was whether
such . pressure would Kill the toad
or whether its ability TO compress It
self was sufficient to allow it to come
out OF the ordeal alive. The toad
was first placed in a lump of gran
ulous clay and the whole pressed into
brick. After the huge press had
done its work the solid brick was
lifted from the machine and the toad
winked its ayes contentedly, stretched
its legs and hoped away.-Popular

TAFT'S Fish STORY.

Justice Harlan told q story to
Judge Taft of how he went out to
play golf in q fog.
Judge Taft responded with fish
ing story, also about fog. He went
out one day in wagon to fish and
the fog came down thick. He drew
up where he thought the stream
ought to be, cast his line, felt a
pull, and hauled in fine trout-an-
other bite and another, until the
wagon was filed. The fog lifted and
the wagon was 800 yards from the
river. There was a silence which
might have been felt when Judge
Taft concluded and Justice Harlan
told no more fog stories.-National
