REMEDY FOR PISONED DOGS

About a week ago it was reported
that four or five dogs were poisoned
in and around Eureka, but upon
investigation only one case was
found. that being the little rat
terrier of Edgar Sad!er of Dia-

dogs are poisoned. and if tie

From one of our exchanges pub
ished in a locality where a number
of dogs hal recently been poisoned
we take the follwing, which it says
is an effective mode of treatment
when the animal is first affected:
Strychnine is the poison most
frequently employed. Ii especially
affects the hind quarters and spine
of the animal. with u tendency to
paralyze and prevent walking up
right. the hind feet dragging
heavily as the poison advances in
effect. These symptoms sometimes

vulsions begin. At once give the

COSTS SOME MONEY TO FLY

Aeroplanes are still beyond the
reach of the middle class, for it
takes both money and leisure to
W and operate one. To be
strictly correct.if you are going to
use a foreign machine you must at
tend an aviation school abroad.
This course will cost including
passage to and from Europe and a
month on the other side not less
than $1,000, for the course at the
school is $500. The cost of a
machine is from $1,000 to s 7.CCO,
and you are likely to smash up one
or two at least before you become
proficient. Experience is The only
way to lean in aviation declared
Count de Lessep. The instructor
may explain. but you must actually
do the work your self" you
may break a few of those blooming
buses" said Mr.. RadIey, the
original English aviator who
always speaks Of his machine as
a 'bIs' but its jolly good sport you
know.
The cost Of gasoline is another
item in the flying game. A Curtiss
biplane requires six gallons to
keep it in the air an hour. The
French models require even more.
Some machines, specially the French
are not so quick in leaving the
ground and require considerable
space in landing, which mus,
consist of level ground-a long
stretch-so the value of such a
piece of land must be added to the
cost of aeroplaning.
Which type of machine is the
safer and better flyer is a matter
Of opinion, and each aviator is
loyal to his own ar. They all
agree, however, that in order to be
successful a man must know and
trust his aircraft, being free from
fear and nervousness, and that he
must rot have ancrvous jerky touch
as a quick jerk to aeroplane mach
inery is likelyto have serious results
Above all he mu t attend strictly
to business while he is in the air
for eternal vigilance is the price
of safety when visiting cloudland.

only scratches the soil.

Corn is planted by hand a man
following the pillow. dropping the
seed and covering it with his foot.
1t is cultivated with the same pillow,
which gives very poor results in
destroying the weeds. The fodder
is gathered by pulling the leaves
or blades from the stock. which
r made into bundles and carri, d
from the fields by pack mules.
Rice is painted, after the native
pillow has scratched over the land,
by being thrown broadcast, and
covered by hauling a bunch of brush
owe the land. When the rice is
abont one foot or IS inches high
it is u down with grass hooks; not
even a scythe is used for this
work. This cutting back is said to
make the rice grow more buncby
and enables the rice plant to get
the best of the weeds, whereas, if
the land had been properly plowed
before planting there would be no
weeds and this cutting back would
not be necessary. Some eight or
ten days before cutting or harvest
ing time the water is shut off from
the rice fields to allow the rice to
ripen, when it is cut with the same
grass hooks. 1t is then piled up for
three days, when it is threshed by
being hand beaten on a rock, Ey
which process five to ten per cent
of the grain remains on the straw.
During the eight or ten days the
field is drying out a loss of about
40 per cent. of grain occurs from
various causes.

farm implements. could be con-
tinued through the long list of
