The Cowboys Handkerchief.


Have you ever wondered why the
cowboy pictures by painters who have
made study of western life depict
the man of the plains with his red
bandanna halfway down on his chest
instead of fitting snugly around his
neck?" queried ranch owner Of Cali
fornia.
It'll tell you. When cowboy starts
on long ride over the plains one Of
his principal annoyances is having to
wipe dust from his eyes. His heavy
gauntlets make it impossible to use
his hands, and he ties his handkerchief
loosely around his neck and when
occasion requires uses it to clear his
eyes. 1t is the most convenient place
to carry the handkerchief while riding
horse. "-Washington Post.

A FLAME OF PAIN.
The Shock That Comes With the Bite
Of tho Electric Ant.

The Shock That Comes With the Bite
Of tho Electric Ant.
When you happen to sit down to
rest or take notes near a colony of
electric ants some wandering hunter
is sure to find you and come cautious
~ forward to discover the nature OF
the intruder and what ought to be
done. If you are not too near the ant
town and keep perfectly still he may
run across your feet few times. over
your legs and hands and face. up your
trousers, as if taking your measure
and getting comprehensive views. then
go in peace without raising an alarm
If, however. tempting spot is offered
or some suspicious movement excites
him bite follows. And such a bite!
I fancy that a bear or a wolf bite is
not to be compared with it. A quick
electric flame Of pain flashes along
the outraged nerves. and you discover
for the first time how great is the ca
pacity for sensation you are possessed
of. A shrek. a grab for the animal
and bewildered stare follow this bite
of bites as one comes back to con-
sciousness from sudden eclipse.
This wonderful electric ant is about
three-fourths of an inch long. Bears
are fond of it and tear and gnaw
its home logs to pieces and roughly
devour the eggs. larvae. parent ants
and the rotten or sound wood of the
cells. all in one spicy acid hash. The
Digger Indians also are fond of the
larvae and even of the perfect ants. so
I have been told by old mountaineers.
They bite off and reject the head and
eat the tickly acid body with keen
relish. Thus are the poor biters Bit
ten, like every other bitter. big or little,
in the worlds great family. - John
Muir in Atlantic,

FREAK SHADOWS.
a Peculiar Phenomenon That Has !
Simple Explanation.

3 81
In the crude oil producing regions in
California there are scores of large
ponds Of this material. After being
pumped to the surface the petroleum
is emptied into depressions in the
earth. where it remains for a time.
Later the crude oil is. placed in bar
rels. In large metal cans or else in big
reservoirs. These oil ponds are known
as ''sump holes" ...5... -
There is one peculiar thing about
these ''sump holes." and that is in the
way of producing what are known as
''freak shadows" These are real
shadows. but Notwithstanding this fact
they are decidedly 'freaky." If the
sun is brightly shining and a per-
son stands for few moments on the
margin of the ''sump hole" so that
his. shadow falls on the surface of the
petroleum and he then quickly changes
his position the dim shadow remains
just where it was originally cast. In
other words. the shadow does not
follow the substance"
This may seem like paradox, but it
is true. The instant a person shifts
his position his Shadow is again cast
In new place, vet the former shadow
remains unchanged. The longer a
person stands in one particular spot
the longer will the former shadow be
visible.
Hundreds of experiments have been
made along these lines, and every time
the same results have been produced.
The simple explanation for this phe-
nomenon is that under the hot sun
gas is being constantly generated
down in the body of the petroleum,
and it rises to the surface in the form
of little minute bubbles. So very
small are these bubbles that they are
scarcely visible to the naked eye Mil
lions of these wee bubbles are rising
to the top all the time, when the
bubbles break and the gas is liberated,
passing into the air.
Both the gas and bubbles are so
very supersensitive to the temperature
that even ones shadow cast for a
moment across them is affected. The
temperature is lowered. Whenever the
substance quickly changes position the
shadow remains until the rays again
warm up that spot and the shadowy
outline slowly fades away. OF course
the freak shadow" may be seen for
only very few seconds.-Scientific
American.

HOME OF FALcoNRY.

All wanderers are lovers of the

brought back falcons with them from
their eastern wanderings. But imagine
the ambition of the men who fly their
birds at wolves and foxes instead Of
at quails and cartridges! Not content
with hunting game birds with small

they hunt such game as gazelles, foxes

Try Soybeans.

| What are you going to do will
that piece of ground you didn't
get ready for corn? 1t will moi
pay to let it lie idle this summer.
Why not plant it in soybeansi
This crop will make good hay but
| is better for soiling or silage. 1t
makes excellent pasture for hogs
and sheep, yielding from 5 to 10
tons of green forage per acre.
The soybean is a legume, and
in nutritive value is equal to red
clover. AS a soil improver it is
excellent. This plant will grow
on a wide variety of soils, but
the richer the soil the larger the
yield of forage. Prepare the
soil the same as for corn. Drill
the soybeans in, from 3 pecks 10
bushel and a half of seed per ac-
re, after corn planting time. The
heavier seeding is where the
crop is grown for hay or pasture.
A common drill can be used with,
the oat feed opened, and enough
of the holes stopped up to give
the proper distance between
rows.
Cultivate the soybeans with a
weeder before they come up
When the rows are wide enough
apart. use the cultivator. When
the crop is grown for seed, sew
eral civilizations should be given.
Harvest soybeans intended for
hay as soon as the pods begin to
form; for silage, leave the plants
come as near maturity as posi-
BILE without dropping their leaves.
Put in the siIo with corn. When
intended for seed, harvest before
the beans are mature or they
will shatter badly. Handle when
the due is on.
Use an ordinary moving ma
chine with side delivery at
tachment, except where intend
ed for silage. when the self
binder makes the best imple-
ment, the bound bundles being
easy to handle. For hay, handle
as little as possible. Leave in
the swath one or two days, then
put in small cocks until cured.
For threshing the seed, use ord
mary threshing machine with
plank cOncaVeS.
There are a number of good
varieties of soybeans that do we'll
in this state, the Medium sGreen
probably being the best known.
Ask your dealer about soybean
seed. If you need a catch crop
or a substitute crop, try soybeans.
