Mammoth Whale Embalmed at
Houston Texas.
81 Louis Times.

st Louis Times.
Several clashes occurred between
the health authorities of Houston,
Tex, when .. j. Donovan, an en-
balmer of Dallas, assisted by score
of men, embalmed the carcass of a
monster whale by the same method
used in preparing human bodies for
burial. The process required two
weeks of constant labor.
The whale was caught at Sabine
Pass and towed to Port Arthur,
where il was exhibited at so much
per look by the owners. Several
days later the animal became ill and
before a specialist on whale diseases
could be found the monster died.
The carcass developed an odor in
proportion to its size and the exhibit
tons were postponed. The owners
then lowed il 10 Houston. Citizens
protested to the health authorities,
and fearing the losss of the carcass,
the owners summoned Undertaken
Donovan.
eve want you to embalm this
whale with as much care as you
would a human being" Donovan
was informed by the owners.
Sure" he replied.
While the carcass was being filled
with formaldehyde several clashes &C.
Cured between the owners, the en-
balmers and the authorities. For
three days the men were kept at
work making hypodermic injections
over every foot of surface until the
inside of the whole was covered with
formaldehyde. AT the end of two
weeks the odor disappeared and with
the permission of the Health Depart
ment officials the exhibitions were
resumed.
The whale was a male, SO IL feet
long, 81 feet around and weighed 10
tons. The tail measured 16 IL feet
across, from tip to tip.

Catfish Six Feet Long.

Valley, Neb., June 23.-Presuma-
bly, the largest fish ever caught in in
land waters was landed here by
Willis Orris and John Wixon, farm
ers. II was black catfish and weigh
ed 297 pounds, and was almost six
feet long.
The Platte River was unusually
high this spring, having flooded the
lowlands and bottoms. Now it is
rapidly receding. The other day
Orris and his hired man, Wixon,
were out in pasture, repairing
fences. In swale over which the
river had swept, and which was
filled with water to a depth of a
couple of feet, they noticed a great
disturbance. Going out there they
discovered the monstrous fish. Pitch
forks were secured and then the
chase commenced. The swale was
about 100 feet wide and 800 feet long
and back and forth the fish flew,
lashing the water into foam.
The fish, finally tired out, was
driven into shallow water and spear
ed to death. 1t is presumed that it
came up out of the Missouri River, as
fifty-pounder is the largest fish that
has heretofore been caught out Of the
Platte.

Crop Rotations for Missouri.

The matter OF crop rotation is Delng
given more and more attention by
Missouri farmers. This is partly due
to the fact that most lands are no
longer producing abundant crops
under straight grain farming. Farm
ers are therefore driven to change
of crops to keep the land productive.
The rotation which should be adopted
on any farm naturally depends upon
a number of factors, such as, the type
of farming, the crops best adapted to
the region, the market facilities, the
labor supply, etc. There are how
ever, certain essentials to every ro-
tation which should be considered.
The most important of these, is that
the rotation should contain a legume
crop, such as clover or cowpeas, at
least once in four years if it is to be
permanently sussessful.
A system of rotation such as corn,
oats, clover has arather wide adoption
in Missouri; also a rotation of corn,
wheat, clover, or one of corn, oats or
wheat, clover and timothy two years.
Another one particularly adapted to
lands of rather low fertility, is that
of corn, cowpeas, wheat, clover. In
this rotation, cowpeas may be seeded
in the corn at the last cultivation to
be pastured off with sheep or hogs,
or rye may be seeded in the fall and
pastured up until April of the next
spring when the land may be broken
for cowpeas. After the cowpeas are
off, wheat may be seeded without
further preparation of the soil, than
narrowing or disking and narrowing.
Clover may then be seeded in the
spring. This will maintain legume
crop on the soil practically every
year.
Many farmers object to a rotation
which includes corn but one year in
four, maintaining that this is not suf-
ficient corn for feeding purposes, and
this is true under many systems of
management. Where wider use is
made of forage crops however, such
as cowpeas, soybeans and rape for
hog pasture, a great saving Of corn
may be brought about. On lands of
low fertility some such system as
this should be adopted because corn
two years out of four is too much for
the land if it is to be built up rapidly
in fertility. Where man will make
wide use of legumes and limit his
corn crops to not over one in three,
and where he either feeds back the
bulk of these crops, or better still,
where in addition to feeding, an &C.
casional legume crop like cowpeas or
a second crop Of clover to turn under,
very much greater yields may be Sc
cured.-M. F. Miller, Agricultural
Experiment Station, University of
Missouri, Columbia, Mo.
