The primary object OF cultivating
crops is to keep the soil In good con-
dition, but II 1t were not for the
weeds lots Of farmers would neglect
this important work. Sometimes our
blessings come In disguise.
Expecting the hens to turn out
many and good eggs without shells
and grit is just like asking the miller
to grind good grist without sharp
stones. Keep the mill wheels of your
hens gizzards freshly sharpened.
Many a man who boasts that he
is self-made would be a pretty poor
job IL it had not been for the shap-
ing bis wife gave him.
The soil is the most humanizing
thing in the world.
No man or woman who really has a
passion for the soil can ever go very
far wrong.
The silo Is the sure signboard Of
prosperity.
Nature does not easily give up her
secrets. but when we discover them
she unerringIy produces the results
we seek.
The amount digested and not the
amount eaten gives the horse strength.
Among the little things profitable
but neglected on the farm is the
Shetland pony. He grows into money

BATTLE WITH WILDCAT.
Mouth, in Desperate Encounter,
Finally Oy, rcomes Savage Beast.

TOuth, In Desperate Encounter,
Finally Owe rcomes Savage Beast.
While hunting north of Ladysmith,
Walter and Otto Schroeder had an excit-
ing and sanguinary battle with a monster
wildcat. Otto was trailing the cat with
three trained hounds, when Walter, sta
toned on a log, saw the cat coming di-
rectly toward him. He was armed with
a double barrelled shotgun loaded with
buckshot, and in his excitement he dis
charged both barrels at the cat at once,
instead of only one as he intended to.
The recoil of the piece knocked him off
the log onto his back. Before he could
regain his feet the cat was upon him and
a desperate fight ensued. Walter dubbed
his gun and at the first swing broke the
barrel from the stock. Selling the bar
rel the man punched and belabored the
wildcat in desperation until the dogs came
up and then the cat turned his attention
to them. Cat and dogs rolled and tum-
bled, splitting, growing and yelping. The
men watched their chance and finally dis
patched the cat with a few well-directed
blows on the head. One of the dogs ears
was found to be literally torn to shreds,
another had an eye gouged out and the
third was badly scratched and torn. The
gun barrel shows evidence of the encoun-
ter by numerous teeth marks and scratch
es. The men escaped with few slight
scratches and torn clothes. The cat
weighed iifty-six pounds and was the lsrg-
est ever killed in that vicinity.

The right time to sow seeds in the
hotbed depends largely on the loca-
ton, the kind of plants and the way
in which the plants are to be handled
Sowing the seed too early is very apt
to cause a loss.
A successful tomato grower SAYS he
economies hot-bed space and labor
by growing his early plants, ready for
the field, right where the seed is
sown, 500 plants to the sash. He usu-
ally sows his seed about the middle
of March, and the plants set in the
field from the LIST to the 10th of May,
and about the 10th of July the first
fruits are sent into market selling at
from 10 to ID cents per berry basket,
retail; or from $3.50 to 81 per bushel
crate, wholesale.
He sows the seed in drills eight
inches apart, or five rows to the sash,
using a liberal amount of seed. When
well started the plants are thinned TO
about 100 per row. The bed is care
fully ventilated without severe drafts
during the day, and at night covered
with straw mats.
For the first three or four weeks
the growth is very rapid; as the
weather becomes milder the plants
are more and more exposed to the
open air, and as the time for trans
planting draws near water is with
held, so that on sunny afternoons the
plants have quite wilted look. But
the result is fine lot of plants, meas
uring from eight inches to a foot in
height, with hard, woody stems, bios
som buds showing, and tough leaves
that will Withstand a light frost,
should one come.
In setting these plants in the field,
they are laid in shallow burrows, tops
away from the prevailing winds;
little soil is drawn over the roots, a
foot pressed on the spot, while the
rest of the stem is covered. all but
three or four inches of the top, which

PARIS MYTHS EXPLODED.
An American Elbowed Into Gutter BY
"PoIitest People on Earth"

'
"PoIitest People on Earth"
Tradition declares the French to be
the most polite people in the world
They're not, writes Samuel Hopkins
Adams in Golfers. Individually the
Frenchman may be courteous. Collec-
lively he lacks the essential element
of courtesy, regard for the feelings
of others.
Charming in private, in public he
is an individualist to the verge oil
savagery In the theatre he is q
nuisance, on the street he is boer,
travelling he is-there is no other
word adequate to the OCCASION
hog. You discover this on the occa-
sion of your first promenade in
Paris.
My first day on the boulevards of
Paris was spent mainly in the gut
ter, my second in apolcgizing to peo-
pie who were urging me thither. My
third | devoted to dong some but
ting myself Ny fourth, fifth and
sixth l nursed lame shoulders.
Now have a hardened spot in
my soul and two more on the front
of my collarbcne. and can look
straight into the eyes of an elderly
French lady with long gray whiskers
and convince her that she doesn't
want more than two-thirds of tbs
sidewalk and If she does want ii she
doesn't get it. This sounds ungentle-
manly, but it's necessary. For if you
let yourself get shunted into the
street often enough it's only a ques-
ton of time when a watchful taxi
auto will get you.

SECRETARIES TO THE BRAIN.
Centres whIeh, once rauaht, ATTEND

Centres Which, Once Taught, Attend
Always to Same Details.
Habit Is the requirement of ma
chine-like or automatic power of per-
forming certain duties. Actions which
we have at first to exercise our in
tellectual centres to be able to per-
form are ultimately discharged with
out any reference to our mind or
consciousness.
Indeed when the intellect comes 10
interfere with the automatic per-
Torrance of such acts, says the Lon
don Illustrated News, they are apt
to be less perfectly executed than
when the machinelike activity of brain
is permitted to have its sway. Take
the case Of reading, writing and spell
ing; at first we have to acquire these
gifts through the exercise of close
intellectual attention; later on they
are automatically performed.
We do not after the childish stage
Of education require to bethink our
selves over the shape of letters, the
sound of syllables or the formation
OF words by act of the pen. Clearly
what was at first an intellectual act
has become purely mechanical.
Also in exercising the other "R"
and in doing sum we arrive at a
correct solution without having to
think out the rationale of the opera
ton, as we did when taught arith-
metic at school. Tie saving to the
intellectual centres which deal with
questions and affairs of every moment
must be enormous in consequence OF
this division of labor The centres in
question are left free to exercise judg-
ment and to engage in the highest
operations of our conscious life.
In the brain strul ture we actually
find centres which discharge these
automatic duties and play the part
of private secretaries to the head
OF the mental firm. Even when we
come to higher brain operations a
like principle prevails.
Centres are set apart for govern
ing muscles, others receive messages
from organs of sense, and others
again, sitting in the judgment seat,
report upon information received.

AN ALCOHOL SCHOOL.

To Teach Farmers How to Make the
Denatured Article.
The Government. has now opened
its alcohol school in the city Of
Washington for the instruction of the
people of the United States in proper
methods of making and using the
denatured product.
For this purpose model still has
been erected close by the Department
of Agriculture which is big enough
to work up twenty-five bushels OF
corn a DAY, converting that quantity
Of grain into seventy-five gallons Of
90 per cent. alcohol-that is to say
95 per cent. pure. The plant repre-
sents the smallest outfit that can be
conducted proftably Oh a commercial
scale.

have been made by which they NAV

the alcohol making outfit. see how it
works and listen TO a course Of lee
lures explaining its management It
will be their business when they go
home to teach the farmers how to

this character.
Inasmuch as such a plant could not
be erected for less than $4,000 il Is
obvious that the ordinary farmer
would not be able to afford to con-
struet one of the kind. ..ut-and

MUST SERVE SENTENCE.
Alleged Confederate of John Dfetz

Alleged Confederate of John Dietz
Loses Appeal to Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court has decided that
Valentine Weissenbach, alleged confeder-
ate of John Dietz, the hero" of Cameron
dam. must serve the remainder of a twelve
year term in Waupun. During the spring
of 1904, while the State and federal au-
thorities were making every effort to ar
rsst John Dietz of Cameron dam on State
and federal warrants, Weissenbach, his
nea rest neighbOr. became his confederate
in defending Dietz's home. Early in May
several deputy sheriffs were sworn in and
sent to arrest Dietz. They were driving
down the roadway toward D;etz's home
and after passing hill were halted by a
cry from the brush, Throw up your
hands :" Several shots were fired at the
rig, one piercing the hat of one of the
deputies. Afterward Weissenbach was
arrested and the deputies swore that he
was with Dietz and fired the shots. Weis-
senbach was convicted of attempted muir
der and sentenced to Waupun for twelve
years. He appealed on the ground that
he was not with Dietz at the time of the
shooting and also pleading erroneous in
structions to the jury, but the decision of
the lower court was affirmed.

supplemental food. when fed to hogs

second, the most economical gains. but
took second place to tankage as an
efficient ration. A ration of grain with
tankage as a supplemental food came
second in rate of gain. but first in
efficiency OF ration. Because Of the
high cost of the tankage, 1t makes an
expensive ration when fed In the pro-
portions given in these tests. Roots as
a supplemental food also make valu-
able addition to the ration, coming next
in value to skim milk and tankage.
Glover or alfalfa fed as hogs will eat
it, together with grain ration. i'm
proves materially the rapidly OF the
gain and the economy OF the feeding.
In these tests the hogs fed grain
alone, made economic gains, but the
lowest daily gains and on the average
the most expensive gains were made on
such a ration. Hogs fed half grain
ration ON clover and alfalfa pasture
made, in proportion to the grain fed,
much faster gains and more economic
gains than those fed full grain ration.
The central thought in these tests Is
that some supplemental food is neces-
sary in feeding a grain ration TO hogs
If the most rapid and economic gains
are TO be had. For conditions in Mon
tana the value of the supplemental
food is: First, skim milk; second,
roots; third, tankage; fourth, pasture ;
fifth, clover and alfalfa.

1t was trimmed with wonderful regu'

cocoanut oil and painted red. At a
distance it looked like rising sun.
Another type of the inhabitants
who wear their hair in an unusual
fashion was described by DIR. Dorsey.

said, "the hair is brushed back over
the scalp and hangs down to the
waist. It, is a perfect nassau in

combed and it was impossible to run
the fingers through it,. At distance
it looks like a cap with the visor

The real secret of the present SEES
sion of the legislature is to figure out
what is going to be done about home
rule. The grist of bills has already
started, but practically no progress has
been made towards a solution. There
is well defined suspicion that soine
members of the committees having toe
bills in charge are not anxious that
anything should he dcne, hoping that
the legislature will conclude to appoint
home rule commission to make an
investigation of conditions existing in
various cities and report at special
session to be held in the fall. loud
wall will be made against such per-
Torrance as any number of cities want
something done that will enable them
to secure needed charter amendments
and under the constitution nothing can
be done until home rule is provided. us
