A Mules Testimony

A correspondent sends the fol-
lowing clipping, believing that it
will interest many of our readers as
the incident related actually OCCUR
red in a Massachusetts court:
A driver had been brought before
the judge, charged with cruelty to
animals in that he had been driving
a CALLED mule. The prisoner had
an expert witness in a veterinarian
who testified that the sore on the
mules back did not pain the ami
NAL in the least.
The judge listened attentively to
the long technical opinion, and then
demanded to know where the mule
was. He was informed that it was
harnessed to wagon on the street
in front of the court building. The
judge ordered that court be adjourn
ed for five minutes.
He took his cane and proceeded to
the street. He approached the
mule, and with the end of his cane
touched the sore spot on the ami
mails back. The mule almost kick
ed the dashboard off the wagon.
Once again the judge touched the
sore with his cane, and the frantic
beast almost demolished the wagon
with his kicking.
The judge returned to the bench.
The prisoner was called before him.
With all due respect to the ex-
pert testimony you have had intro
duced in your behalf to show that
the sore on the mules back does
not pain him l will fine you $50"
announced the Judge. Il asked the
mule if the sore hurt him, and he
said it did."-Dumb Animals.

tank in the cellar and pump water
into it until you have pressure
enough to carry it to the bath room
at least to the lower floor of the
house? When a system of this kind
once established, no amount mon
ey could induce the farmer to dis
continue its use, or to dispose of it.
Someone will say: What about
the farms operated by tenants? A
tenant can not afford to 90 to this
expense Of course not; but the
time is coming when landlords must
be educated as well as the farmer
who lives on his own land. Where
tenants occupy live stock farms, it
is usually on the shares no land
lord must expect to get the profits
he might have on the live stock I'M
less he gives them chance to make
these profits. What signifies an ex-
penditure of one, two, three or even
five dollars an acre, when it will Sc
cure better tenant, enable him to
make better terms with the tenant
and enable him to receive larger
profits as his share?
Where farms are used for the
production of grain for the market
this is unnecessary; but the time is
coming, and that not far distant
when a change will be inevitable or
else there will be waste of fertili-
ty that will tell sadly on the selling
prices of the farm.
Therefore, land owners. whether
landlords or men who farm their
own land. will need to investigate
this question. If we can only get
farmers to investigate it and see the
possibility of saving labor and in
creasing gains in their live stock, it
is only question of time when a
water system will be established on
every farm. 90 WallaceS' Farmer.

1t is strange the number of peo-
pie that are always wanting to
sponge" something off of news
paper. These same people do not
realize that it costs money to gath
er the news and print paper. 1t
is the same thing with people who
come into the printing office and
want you to give" them a copy of
the paper. The white paper costs
money, so does the ink and like
wise the setting of the type and
printing, 1t is the same thing as
going into a grocery store and ask
ing for a pound of sugar and not
offering to pay for it, or in a dry
goods store for a handkerchief or a
towel. People would not do that
but they have a sufficient amount
of nerve to come into a printing
Office and want the same thing. It's
simply pure gall that enables them
to do a thing of this kind.-Tmes.

To Press Seams.

Here is a useful thing to remem-
Der in pressing sleeve-seams open.
Turn the sleeve. insert a smooth
glass bottle, open the seam, and
press. You will find that enough
moisture comes from the bottle to
dampen the seam without impair
ing the goods, and besides, it keeps
you from creasine the sleeve. This
is very helpful to know in dress
