VeutiIafing Stables.

Horses and cows are in the stable at
night for rest When the weather is
warm the atmosphere in close confine-
ment becomes very warm and oppres-
sive, so much so that the animals be-
come very uncomfortable, and hence
fail to get proper rest. The horse that
does not get proper rest is not In
good condition for heavy work the fol-
lowing day, and the COW that does not
sleep III a cool, restful place in hot
weather will not give full flow OF
milk. The temperature of the work
ing or producing animal must be kept
normal to give best results. If there
are no windows In your stables, cut
ont a number now and let light and
fresh air come for the health and COM
fort of the animals. There Is nothing
like plenty of good fresh air in living
and sleeping rooms. whether the rooms
be for the occupancy Of man of for
animals. This holds good for both
winter and summer.

After an Investigation covering two
weeks, William Krohbach of Dandy,
Pa, has learned the reason he has
been receiving only two or three eggs
a day from his flock Of sixty hens, and
incidentally found out something
about the inventive capacity Of rats.
One morning he heard a noise in
his chicken house, and quietly making
his way there, he saw two big rats
in the act of making away with
newly-laid egg. One of the rodents
was lying fiat on its back with the
egg tightly clutched in its four paws,
while the other rat was dragging it
along by the tail. Krohbach was so
impressed by the sight that he
watched the rodents for three minutes.
during which time they carried the
egg for twenty yards along the fence
until they came TO a hole in the
ground, into which they took the egg.
One of the rats became tired while
carrying the egg and changed places
with its fellow.

Many of our Colorado people have
used Russian thistle for forage for

that it Is as good as alfalfa. In a re-

then they feed heavily for about two
months and sell the hogs at eight

a thousand hogs year and who in
one year sold $1,000 worth, makes a
practice Of growing his hogs on alfalfa
pasture until about eight months old,
feeding one ear of corn per head daily.
He then feeds heavily on corn for
month or two and sells at an average

man feeds all the corn and slop the

In Montenegro They Have Their Own

The national dance of Montenegro Is

Saxton nodded. He understood now
why the stockholders meeting had not
disturbed Fenton.
This is an ugly mess,' the lawyer con-
tinucd. 1T would have suited me better
to control the company through the stock
so long as we had so much, but we ddn' I
quite make it. You're friendly to Mr..
Porter aren't you?"
YES; don't know how he feels toward

I'VE can't ask him just now, so We'll
take it for granted. The court will un-
Questionably appoint receiver, independ-
ent of this mornings proceedings, and if
you don't mind, III ask to have you put

porter's wishes"
"But-there are other and better men
Very likely; but particularly wish
this"
There's Mr.. heaton-isn't he the
natural man-in the bank and all that?"
urged Saxton.
Mr. Wheaton has very exacting po-
stion and it would be unfair to add to his
duties, said the lawyer. "Will you keep
where l can find you the rest of the
day."
Yes" said John; "I1l be at my Of
flee. But you can do better" he called
after Fenton, who was walking rapidly
toward the postoffice building.
Wheaton sat at his desk all the MORN
ing hoping that Fenton would drop in to
give him the result of the Traction meet
ing but the lawyer did not appear at the
bank. A dumb terror possessed him as
he reflected upon the events of the past
day. 1t might be that the shares which
Margrave had forced from him would car
ry the balance of power. He went to the
telephone and called Evelyn to ask her
how her father was and to report his de-
livery of the papers in her fathers box to
Mr.. Fenton. as instructed. Evelyn spoke
hopefully of her fathers Illness: there
we're no unfavorable symptoms, and every
thing pointed to his recovery. 1t was
very sweet TO hear her voice in this way;
and he went to his desk comforted

Spraying Experiments.

Experiments with fungicides upon
potatoes have been carried on at the
Vermont Experiment Station for
eighteen years. Experiments made re.
Gently were designed particularly to
determine the relative gain from
spraying potatoes with bordeaux mix
ture and paris green, comparing the
results from two, three and four ap-
plications. Two applications of Dor.
deaux mixture made in August proved
less efficient in checking the flea bee
tie and early blight than where other
applications were made, particularly
the spraying made in early July. The
increase in marketable tubers for the
sprayed over the unsprayed lots varies
from SO to 172 per cent.

Fenton had found him there.


Wheaton continued to call at the Por.
ters' daily to make inquiry for the head
of the house. On some Of these occa-
sions he saw Evelyn, but Mrs. Whipple
was always there and he had not seen
Evelyn alone since she gave him her faith
er's key. Other young men, friends of
Evelyn, called, he found, just as he did,
to make inquiry about Mr.. Porter. Mrs.
Whipple had a way of saying very art
lessly, and with a little sigh that carried
weight, that Mr.. Raridan was so very
kind. Wheaton wanted to be very kind
himself. but he never happened to be
about when the servants were busy and
there were important prescriptions to be
filled at the apothecary's.
On the whole he was very miserable
and when, one morning, while Porter's
condition was still precarious, he re-
ceived a letter from Snyder, postmarked
Spokane, declaring that money was imme-
diately required to support him until he
could find work, he closed that issue final
ly in a brief letter fhich was not couch
ed in diplomatic language. The four days
that were necessary for the delivery OF
this letter had hardly passed before
Wheaton received telegram sharply de-
manding remittance by wire. This
Wheaton did not answer; he had done all
that he intended to do for William Sny-
der, who was we'll out Of the way, and
much more safely so If he had no money.
The correspondence was not at an end,
however, for threatening letter in Sny-
der's eccentric orthography followed, and
this, too, Wheaton dropped into his waste
basket and dismissed from his mind.
