Water and Electricity.
One of the most pominent and sue
cessful farmers Of Prairie Grove, Ark.
who is an active member Of the Ma
tional Farmers Union, has dwelt in q
cave for years. 1t Is probably the
most palatial cave In the world, and
is fitted up with all modern conven-
iences, including hot and cold water,
electric fans, electric lights and steam
heat. He discovered the cave at the
top of mountain, LOO feet high.
r 1t Is seventy-eight feet long by twen-
ty-f1ve feet wide and thirty-two feet
high. The walls are of beautiful gran
ite, which has been handsomely pol
ished. The ceiling Is forty feet thick.
The front of the cave Is Of glass,
which the owner and occupant, H. 8.
Mobley, put in. together with hard
wood floors.
The flues for the cooking range pass
out through the mouth of the cave and
extend outward a distance of nearly
forty feet. Movable screens permit the
increase and reduction of rooms at
the pleasure of the occupants. A fine
spring at the top of the mountain fur
nishes water through a private system
of waterworks.
This novel dwelling was completed
about two years ago. 1t Is approached
by beautiful road ascending the
crest of the mountain by easy stages.
and the grounds about the cave are
kept in perfect condition. The occu-
pants declare that 1t is the coolest
dwelling in summer and the most COM
Portable In winter, and they have no
fear of cyclones, which are frequent
In that region.
Neither heat nor cold penetrates the
solid protection Of yards of granite.
Mr.. Mobley says he will live In the
cave for the rest Of his life. The cave
is in easy driving distance Of Prairie
Grove town.-Boston Traveller.

Assemblyman Marks Of Hudson
County, New Jersey, introduced bill
In the house some time ago providing
that all cemeteries shall be equipped
with receiving vault, the interior Of
which shall be In view of person
outside and subject to frequent inspec-
ton by a physician, the New York
World says. In this vault bodies are
to be kept until it is proved beyond
any doubt that life is extinct. In the

mechanical devices which will enable
the supposedly dead person to give
alarm in the event of return to con-
seriousness. Somewhat similar provi-

that each cemetery shall have a NOR

Sell Les. wheat Abroad.

The calendar year 1909 will show a
smaller expectation Of wheat than any
year In the last decade, and an In
creased home consumption. both in
amount and per capita average, says
report of the Bureau OF Statistics on
wheat production, expectation and con-
sumption of the United States.
The continued decline in exports Of
breadstuffs lends interest to the state
ment. The expectation Of wheat for
the nine months ending with Septem-
ber amounted to only 27.76S.901 BUSH
els, against 6S.17S,935 bushels in the
same month Of 1908; -four exports we're
6,28S,2S3 barrels, against 9,42S,347.
This reduction in exports of wheat
seems to be due to increased consump-
ton at home rather than at any de-
cline in production. The average an
nual production for the last five years
has exceeded any earlier f1ve-year
period.

Machine, to Determine Death.
Meanwhile, DR.. valiant, chief Of
the photographic service of La Ribois-
iere hospital, Paris, is experimenting
with a. machine which, he asserts, will
provide an absolute test of death. 1t
involves the use Of X-ray photographs
Of the internal organs, which, DR..
Valiant declares, differ in the cases
Of subjects alive or dead. Death tails
show clearly In the case Of corpse,
but not II life is present Radio
graphs of bodies taken even a few
minutes after death reveal clearly the
outlines Of all the organs, whereas, If
the photographs are taken during life
the organs are not revealed.
At Pittsburg, Hubert Devan, a
French Canadian, recently announced
the invention, now protected by pat
ents, Of a device which he calls a
grave signal" The device consists Of
piece Of ordinary gaspipe, six feet
long, with a glass globe about the size
Of an incandescent lamp on one end.
The pipe is arranged to pass through
brass plate at the head Of the cof-
fin, leaving the lower end within a
fraction of an inch Of the forehead Of
the corpse. Through the center Of the
pipe runs a plain, smooth stick, one
end Of which rests on the forehead of
the body in the coffin; the other end is
in the glass globe, with a red cloth
attached to II. Should the person
come to life In the coffin and stir, the
stick will be forced through the pipe
and the red-cloth signal will be dis
played. At the same time number
Of small apertures will open at the
base Of the globe and fresh air will
be forced down the pipe into the nos

cl.s. wall. for Fruit Trees.

An interesting experiment in fruit
growing has been recently carried out
by the Count de Choiseul and de-
scribed In Cosmos. When south wall
is used for fruit trees the north side
of the wall is practically wasted as far
as fruit Is concerned. Count de
Choiseul has used glass wall, and
grown fruit trees on both sides. The
produce on the north side is little in
ferior to that on the south. A photo
graph shows heavily fruited pear trees
on both sides of the wall. The wall,
60 feet long and 61a feet high, had If
teen pear trees planted on each side.
In 1907 1874 pears, weighing 81 pounds,
were gathered on the south side of the
wall, and 100, weighing II pounds, on
the north side. The variety grown
was the Doyenne L'Hiver.

ventilation was restored, and this too,
when they were drinking less water.
During the good ventilation days, too.
for each and every period. the cows
gave more milk, the average being
.55 pounds per head per day.
At the end Of the fourteen days the
cows were turned into the yard and
exhibited an intense desire to lick
their sides and limbs. doing so In
many cases till the hair was stained
with blood.
Examination showed that during the
interval rash had developed which

Of hard raised points, and the rasping

the details of which are better hushed
and forgotten, certain occurrences oc-
casionally arise serving to reawaken
the widely prevalent dread of being
buried alive. Medical science, the leg
tslature and the inventor have endeav-
ored to obliterate that dread by pro-
viding means whereby premature bur-
tal and Its grewsOme consequences
may be effectually prevented.
Precautionary Society Measures.
The newest and most important or
ganlzed movements to provide against
premature burial has been started by
the Association for the Prevention of
Premature Burial, an English organi-
zation, which has been at work for the
past twelve years. Preparations are
being made to establish a branch of
the organization in America, probably
In Washington. Large quantities of
literature dealing with the subject are
being sent to medical societies and to
lawmakers all over the United States.
Statistics compiled by British medical
authorities are presented, showing that
out of a total of 1884 recorded cases
149 persons were buried alive, 219 had
marrow escapes, 10 were dissected
alive, 8 had narrow escapes from vivi
section, were embalmed alive and ]
was cremated alive. Further attention
Is called to the fact that In the above
figures the countless thousands of peo
ple who die and are buried alive and
of whom there Is no record have NJ

Stable Ventilation.

Some years ago Prof. F. H. King,
OF Wisconsin. made an experimental
study Of the effect OF ample and de-
fcient ventilation upon twenty milch
cows. The experiment was made In
half-basement stable, represented In
accompanying figure, having three out
side doors. thirteen large windows and
door leading by a stairway to the
floor above. The ceiling was nine feet
above the floor and the stable con-
tained $50 cubic feet OF space per cow.
Leading upward from the ceiling were
two hay chutes two by three feet in
Cross sections, twenty feet high, which
could be opened or closed at will, and
ventilating shaft terminating near
the ridge Of the roof inside.
During the trial the cows were kept
continuously In the stable with the
hay chutes closed during two days and
then with them open two days, the
trials being repeated four times. Fol-
lowing these four trials the hay chutes
were left closed during three consecu-
tive days for poor ventilation and left
opon the following three, making four
teen days In all.
1t was found that measurably the
same amount Of feed was eaten under
both conditions Of ventilation. But
during the days Of insufficient ven
tilation the COWS drank, on the aver
age, 11.4 pounds more water each
day and yet lost In weight an aver
age Of 10.7 pounds at the end of each

Lewis Roesch, the veteran nursery
man, says the best time to plant every
thing except Strawberries, black rasp-
berries and perhaps peaches, is the
fall, say from Oct. Is until the ground
freezes up. The next best time is as
early in this spring as the ground is
dry enough to work. In case the
ground to be planted is exposed to Sc

Getting rid Of Weeds.

The best plan for Kidding the fields
and pastures of noxious weeds is to
cut all of them out before they
go to seed. If no seeds are al
lowed to form the crop will at least
be reduced next year. Many of the
weed pests are biennials, blossoming
and seeding the second year; hence
by keeping them from going to seed
the second year they will die and that
will be the last of them. The Canada
thistle belongs to this class
