by Nervy Lieutenant.
Manila.-When Jikiri, the Moro ban
dit chief, who was killed, with all his
followers, in a desperate battle with
troops and constabulary, near Patian,
on Jolo island, July 5, began his career
as an outlaw he swore that he would
kill 100 men before he died. The rec
ord of the murders he committed is not
complete, but it is stated in dispatch
received here from Zamboanga that
the bandit nearly fulfilled his pledge,
as the partial record at hand shows that
he took the lives of nearly a hundred
persons.

1t Is generally believed that horses
must not be fed clover hay for fear of
the heaves. This is mistake. If the
horse is given the proper quantity of
clover and not overfed there is no
danger of the heaves A horse should
never be fed more than he will eat up
clean, either grain or hay. Without
q doubt oats is the best general food
for a horse, and goes well with tim
othy hay A good change is to once
or twice week give a feed of corn
and clover with bran mash. When
horse does not clean up his feed 1t
is best to try change. Feeding and
watering should be done at regular in
tervals, the watering always before the
eating. Above all things, do not give
n horse water Immediately after eat
ING. 1t should never be given before
at least an hour after he has finished
his meal.

The theory on which crate fattening
is encouraged is that hen will digest
more food than she will eat. Shredded
wheat will put the fat on at as low a
cost as AZ cents per pound. The sec
tons of our crates are two feet wide,
two feet high, twenty seven inches
long, three sections to a crate; five
birds to a section, says bulletin of
The Connecticut Experiment Station.
These have to be very carefully fed so
that the appetite will not be hurt.
Careful attention has to be given not
only to what they are fed, but when
and how often the feed is offered to
them. Equal quantities of cornmeal,
ground oats and shredded wheat mixed
with skim milk consistency of good por-

Care of the Flock,

Sheep need little shelter except to
keep off rain and snow. l have al
ways allowed them to stay out in the
coldest weather, If it was not stormy.
However, | never, under any circum-
stances allow them to take rains and
Sucws In winter, writes a correspondent
OF Farm and Home.
At this season l give good clover
hay. and in addition little silage or
corn fodder about three times a week.

The treatment for wind collie differs
very materially from that of cramr
collie. Absorbents are of some service
and charcoal may be given in any
quantity. RelaXants are also beneficial
in this form of collie Choral hydrate
not only possesses this quality, but it
also is a pain reliever. 1t is particu-
larry well adapted to the treatment of
wind collie, and should be given in l.
ounce doses in a pint of water D-
luted alcohol or whisky may be given,
or aromatic spirits Of ammonia in l.
ounce doses at short intervals A
physic should always he given in flatu-
lent collie as early as possible, the best
being LOUNGE doses of Barados aloes
Injections per rectum. of turpentine,
to ounces; linseed oil 8 ounces. may
be given Frequently to stimulate the
pcristaltic motion of the bowels and
favor the escape OF wind. Blankets
Wrung out of hot water do much to af-
ford relief; they should be renewed
every five or ten minutes and covered
with a dry, woOlen blanket. This form
of collie is much more fatal than cramp
collie, and requires prompt and persist
ent treatment. 1t is entirely unsafe
to predict the result, some apparently
mild attacks going on to speedy death,
while others that appear at the onset
to be very severe yielding rapidly to
treatment Do not cease your efforts
until you know the animal is past help.

! They were close together now. He
stopped a little and caught her hand. Her
| fingers fingered in his grasp. she did not
draw them away. He bent nearer. Her
head was avertcd. He kissed her softly
on the cheek. Then she turned her face
towards him, striving, but weakly, to
draw away her hands.
This" she said with a trace of her
former manner. lis the last straw" There
was a last touch of defiance in her words
and attitude. You are the captain of
this ship she went on cruelty, you
have the advantage of me. If you choose
to kiss your prisoner, why, l cannot help
it,"
ELLEN, dear" he said. his heart throb-
bin tempestuously, Il didn't take your
hand and touch your cheek as the captain
of this ship, but as the man who loves
you. Won't you understands
Il understand everything" said the
girl hurriedly, her voice breaking-"ev-
erything. everything, better than myself
| am fool. You ought to hate me.
Goodnight
She turned away from him resolutely
now. He was too wise to detain her, and
in a moment she was gone.
Il guess he said jubiantly to him
self, that I'll get both Ellens before I'm
through with this undertaking"
As for Miss Ellen, when she got to her
cabin she didn't know whether she hated
herself most for what she called her weak
ness, or loved him more for what she call
ed his strength. He had insulted her
grossly in the afternoon. and he had kiss
ed her in the night. Did he think lightly
to strike a balance that way? She could
neither forgive the one nor forget the
other. The touch of his lips had been
sweet to her, too. She was ashamed,
ashamed of her weakness. but she loved
him. She wished that she had let him
take her in his arms and kiss her again.
And yet the shame of it
Tears were the only things adequate
to these problems and conditions.

When there Is plenty of moisture In
Spring Followed by dry and hot
weather during June and July. the con.
ui.loh Is Just right for spelling the
SOIL especially If untimely blowing has
ieft the fields in badly baken condi-
ton. If the result of such conditions
iasted Dut one season the matter would
not De so serious, but it has frequently
peeh observed that land badly pudded
ana subsequently hard baked can not be
retrieved In many years. 1t is harder
10 reduce such soil than the toughest
hard-pan In fact, it will require sew
efal seasons Of careful work to bring
these soils into good condition again
1t IS bad practice to stir ground
when IL Is wet, yet 1t Is done every
spring. Crops are puddled in every
year, and 1t is wonder that we get
any crops at all from these fields
Such fields are the first to dry up
when summer droughts strike us. for
capillarity has been so completely de-
stroyed that the crops can not draw
upon tne water reserves, and the ele
ments needed for growth Of the crops
are so securely locked up in the clods
That they are not available
1T Is the natural tendency of all soil
to become tirmer. 1t is tamped down
by even the gentlest rains, and beating
rains will render it almost impervous
to water. Good farming must undo
this work by breaking up these crusts
and keeping the soil in good condition.
All practical farmers know that soils
are best by being plowed and cultivated
at just the right time, but not many
have the patience to stand by when
the season is getting late, or put off
cultivation and allow weeds to get the
upper hand. Brown says there is more
to be gained by properly working our
soils than in fertiizing them.

Fertflizing I'm Winter.

It might be said that it is always
seasonable to fertilize the orchard or
garden. Manure placed on this soil
this winter will partially decay, and its
richness soak into the soil for the use
of the plants next year. 1t not only
serves as fertilizer in the orchard,
but i'm winter it acts as a soil prOtec-
tion and regulates sudden freezing and
thawing On hilly land it checks soil
erosion.

Moreover, the sheep which received
salt produced one and one-third pounds

l know from my own experience that
1t pays to keep sheep, provided they

to have or the breeding stock which
they have purchased for the improve
