HOT WATER FARMING.
An Artlc Circle Man Who CONNER
ciaIizes n Spring.

"Of all farms in the world perhaps
the most remarkable Is In Alaska on
a small branch OF the Tanana river,
only 125 miles south OF the Arctic
Circle" said I. II. Mitchell In the
Republican. 1T Is owned and operat-
ed by a man named Karshner.
"A few years ago Karshner was en-
gagged in hunting gold when he came
across something which astonished
him greatly. II was a little stream
OF hot water. He traced the stream to
a spring, which was likewise hot, and
presently Il became obvious that n
considerable area was underiaid by
such springs. Promptly deciding
that this was a discovery more
valuable than gold mine. Kar-
sinner gave up prospecting, obtain
ed quantity OF vegetable seeds OF
various kinds and started in to raise
garden truck.
THE temperature In that region
sometimes falls to Sc degrees below
zero, but q natural system of hot
water heating free OF cost, was just
the thing for truck gardening near
the Arctic Circle, where potatoes
have a market value of % cents and

portion.
"The Karshner farm occupies a fiat
area with a convenient slant toward
the south. Hot water. oozing out of
the ground, forms three small streams
which empty into nearby river. The
warm spring extends over a distance
OF about a mile and, as the owner
says, the heat must be felt to be be-
lieved. He goes on to say that the
place has a climate Of Its own. for
often there Is no frost when II is
freezing everywhere else.
This hot-water farmer has 20 hens
and pigs. He claims that his crop
OF potatoes this year will average
over 300 bushels to the acre. To
bacco grows finely and tomatoes are
a success. Squashes OF various kinds
are grown, some Of them Weighing as
much as SO pounds. Not content with
that, Karshner gets 81 apiece for his
muskmellons.

MAKING DYNAMITE.
.AnnihIIatIon Threatens at Every
Turn.


So thoroughly deceptive is dyna-
mite in the making that you are apt
to be disappointed on viewing the
surface Of things. You could more
readily fancy shunderbolts leaping
and crashing from tender blue skies
than that the most fearful forces in
creation are hidden under such a
peaceful exterior Nitroglycerine, a
cupful of which would distribute you
over square miles Of landscape, is
diligently making around you In hum
dreds of thousands of gallons. It
is making itself in big iron retorts,
cascading down laden CUTTERS and
merrily tumbling in minute Niagaras
into immense watts, where the de-
liquiescent yellow peril pursues its
Journey powderward. Out Of one re-
ceptable it fares furiously through
special lead coils, driven only by
Cooling blasts of air, and is drawn on
like draught ale and piped on to the
next perfecting stage, Gaze with the
nitroglycerine expert into one Of those
big ,caldrons. The interior is brill
liantly illuminated by electricity, the
only Illuminating agency permitted
in or about the danger houses.
At the bottom Is molten, sullen
fluid. Glancing cautiously at the
thermometer, the guide tells you that
the writhing mass is nitroglycerine.
1t Is being fused with nitric and sui
phuric acids, and you are casually in
formed, as the expert sends cooling
stream through the pipes, that II Is
very necessary to keep the .tempera-
ture below 80 degrees. Once above
the so degree dead line, so to say. the
-treacherous liquid might instantly
voice itself In such a deafening ex-
plosion as those in close proximity
may never hear but once. Let the
composition be quiescent for but a
few seconds, and its stiffness sudden
1y becomes that Of death, In conse-
quence Of which extreme vigilance Is
practiced in keeping IL constantly agi-
tated as well as properly tempera-
tured.
Around you are other houses. at
uniform distances apart, and con-
nected by series Of narrow gauge
tracks, wherein workmen are rail-
roading nitroglycerine from here and
pulp cotton from there, to be COM
pounded into dynamite and blasting
ge1atine. Greatest care Is taken In
rolling the product from house to
house. AS soon as a loaded cart Is
ready TO pass out OF the nitroglycer-
ine house, for instance. semaphore
signals from an adjoining station, to
which the consignment Is carefully
hurried. Around you are long store
houses packed with pulp In tons OF
innocent whiteness. Presently the
pulp will assume a tan color under
the nitrating process. and then, sud-
denly becoming Carbonite, Red Cross.
Hercules. Judson and Giant Powder.
Forcite, or what you order. II develops
the quasi virtues OF dynamite--dyna-
mite or blasting gelatine, in which
more natural forces are condensed to
the cubic inch than exist anywhere
else in creation. Death, eurbed and
sleeping, encircles you in gallons and
tons. Annihilation threatens at
every turn, In the form Of potential
pulverizing forces. But the man and
the mercury are there also, alert. re-
sponsive, reliable.---Leslie's Weekly

A family of barn owls will number
from three to seven birds II is hard
to believe what an amount of vermin
family of owls win consume An
old owl will capture as much or more
food than a dozen cats in night. The
owlets are always hungry. They will
eat their own weight In food every
night and more II they can get it. A
case is on record where half grown
owl was given all the mice It could
eat. 1t swallowed eight, one after
the other. The ninth followed. all
but the tail, which for some time hung
out Of the birds mouth. The rapid
digestion Of birds OF prey is shown
by the fact that In three hours the
little glutton was ready for a second
meal and swallowed four more mice.
II this can be done by a single bird,
what effect must a whole family of
owls have on the vermin OF COM
munity? 1t would be difficult to point
out more useful bird than the barn
owl in any farming country. Like
many other birds, 1t deserves the full
est protection, but man Is often its
worst enemy-American Birds.

Barney's
COMPOUND

IS another preparation for stomach
troubles. Il Is impossible for one remedy
to cure all forms of dyspepsia, for the
reason that some people have too much
acid in their sioniaclis, while Others do
not have enough. II is a physical i'm
possibility for the same remedy to re-
heve both Of those conditions.
Barney's Compound is especially rec
commended where there is an excess of
acid. and where catarrhal conditions
exist. For that soreness Of the stomach
