jackson Monument

Chanes. ou, Aag. 1.-THE Oily .
blocks which are 10 be used in the cree
ton of the pedestal of the Stonewall
Jackson monument and which arrived
in tie city several days ago, are now
placed on the eapitol grounds, and the
work of erecting the base for the monu-
ment will begin in a few days.
The Pedestal is Of purple onyx from
the quarres of Rome, where the fam
Gus sculptor, Sir Moses Ezekial, who
has designed and furnished the monu-
ment, resides.
The onyx is of very beautiful shade
of purple, the tint being one rot ordl-
narily seen, and is flecked with trans
parent green and slight colosing OF
red. brown.
The bronze statue of General JAG k
sDn, which will surmount the monu-
ment, was shipped from Rome at the
sa ne time at the pedestal but owing
to the fact that the statue required
more care in handling the block OF
onyx, precautionary measures in trans
porting the statne have delayed its
prJgress aud it has not yet arrived,
but is expected at any time.

The Useless Chandelier.

Every bee keeper knows that it Is
possible to waste good honey on the
drones of the hive. The wCrker-bees
seem to understand the same thing
for they are know to skill off" the
useless males when the supply ofwin-
ter stores is scarce. 1t seems to b e
proper to think of the common barn
yard rooster as the "dronen of the poul-
try yard. Kill him and est him, and
SO save feed for profitable hens! Last
summer | visited Wet Virginia
poultry farm where nearly two thou
sand laying hens were kept, and not
a rooster among them! Their owner
knows his business. He knows that
the rooster nee.ed in the. breeding pens
when he wants eggs for hatchilg; and
he knows just as well that the rooster
is worse THAI useless among the hens
that are laying eggs for food. There
will be just as many eggs without the
rooster, and there will be saving Of
feed for the profitable hens.
In these days of higi-priced grain ,
it is worth the farmers while to con-
slider the saving that " i'll result from
disposng Of from one to half-s-dozen
useless chicken cocks. He is raising
and buying feed in order to make
money, not for the fun Of feeding un-
necessary roosters, cats, and dogs.

The "dog days are the hottest of
the year, but they have nothing to do
with dogs or with any of their diseases
or sufferings. The ''dog days are so
named because in the latitude of the
Mediterranean this period coineided
with that in which the dog star rose
at the same time as the sun and, there
fore, added its heat to one already hot
lumnary. The dog star, Sirius, is the
brightest and, in appearance, the lar
gest of the fixed stars. 1t is called the
dog star because it is seen in the con-
stellatioH called CAMS Major. Accord
ing to Ptolemy, this star used to have
a fiery color, redder than the planet
Mars, but is now altogether white, and
has certainly been white for many CEN
turtles
The heat of the "dog days" really
comes rom the gradual heating of the
earth's surface, which gathers heat,
and becomes warmer from greuEdhog
time. February 2, until Aug. 5, when
| 1t becomes gradually to lose its heat
until grounding time.
Theoretically, December q ought to
be the coolest of the year, because that
is the shortest day of the year, and,
| therefore, receives the least heat and
light from the sun. But experience
shows that the coolest days are gener-
ally in February. In the same way,
June u, ought to be the hottest dey of
the season, because it is the longest,
aud hence receives the most light and
heat. But the earth continues to accu.
mulate more heat until after the eli
maXiof the "dog- day. season, when
the cooling effect begins to predomi-
nate over the sun 5 heating effect, and
so the net result is the cooler weather,
which reaches its climax at ground
hog time.

The President and the Colonel

President Taft has cancelled all but
two of his engagements to speak this
Fall, and has deputed Senator Crane
of Massachusetts to inquire into politi-
cal conditions as far West as Seattle,
Washington. Does the President see
the handwriting on the wall which
SAYS the Republican party has been
tried and found wanting? If Senator
Crane gets his ear close enough to the
ground he will discover some complex
conditions in many of the states that
may cause the President TO order the
whole cabinet to take the stump dur
ing September and October.
Will the President, however, find it
necessary to make one speech in Ohio
and denounce the Boss Cox machine
again, as he did at the request OF
President Roosevelt in 1906? Posi-
bly, President TaftImay request Colo
mel Roosevelt to speak in Ohio be-
