Chapel Marks the Peak.

London.-Croagh Patrick, famous in
Irish tradition as the scene of st. Pat
rick's first missionary work In that
country, is situated three miles from
Westport in Clew bay. Bleak and bare,
the famous mountain rears Its gloomy
head right into the cloud area. Mist,
barely dispelled by the hot sun Of mid
summer, usually wells the summit. At
its base winding road, bordered on
one side by a low wall of gray stone
separating the mainland from the
beach. leads to the little hamlet of
Klooneen Kilmeena, some six miles
distant.
From the top of Croagh Patrick,
which necessltates three hours hard
climbing to get there, a fine view may
be had in clear weather. Inland noun

and only visible when halfway up the
steep ascent, tiny chapel now marks
the spot where Irelands patron saint

Napoleon's Great Career Built Upon

hero Of one Of the most romantic cpl
sodes IN French history. II was an
episode that illustrated the extraordi-
nary military value, so often attested
by the worlds greatest generals. OF
what Othello called the "spirit-stirring
drum" II may be said. euriously
enough, that Napoleon Bonaparte's
great career was built upon a drum,
for the battle of Arcola was won by
the beating of Esuenne's drum, and
the Corsican himself always dated his
confidence in his own fortune from
this battle, won in 1896. The circum-
stances were these:
Bonaparte, hemmed in with a small
army at Verona, between two greatly
superior forces, sailed out at night.

earth could live on that bridge. How
ever, can you swim?"
i can, said the drummer
Then swim across with your drum"
"lmpossiblel" returned Estienne.
Should the drum become water-soak-
ed, could not beat It on the other
side"
But the sergeant was equal to this
diHiculty. Being himself a fine swim
mer, he plunged into the water. bade
Andre mount upon his shoulders and
hold his drum clear Of the water. In
this way the two crossed the river.

Millionaire Wisconsin Dairyman
Makes Important Discovery.
Process Worked Out Whereby Limbs,
Branches and Twlgs Of Tree
Shrubs May Be Utilized for
Fattening Purposes.

Marinette, Wise. l. Cook, mil
llonaire dairyman and market garden
er Of this city, has just given to the
world the results Of several years
study on the problem of securing
cheap and effective food for cattle Of
all kinds, that promises to revolution.
iEe dairying In the northern portion
Of the country this year and which in
a short time will be taken up by all
the newly settled districts Of the en-
tire country. Mr.. Cook has completed
the working out Of a process where
by a food for cattle, as we'll as farm
stock Of all kinds. can be attained
from the limbs, branches and twigs
of tree shrubs, which accumulate dur
ing the clearing of lands.
The discovery of this process reads
like romance to those who give it
but passing thought, but to the stu
dent Of agriculture and dairying meth.
ods it is simply the adapting of old
methods to new uses.
Mr.. Cook, before he took up farm
ing to any extent, was a wholesale
grocer and still owns large interests
in this line. He has always been a
student of nature and a lover of out
door life. Some years ago, while
hunting in northern Wisconsin, he
noted that the deer had eaten the
ends Of the branches of shrubs and
trees down to point where the limbs
were over one-half inch in diameter.
Having just purchased $500 acres of
wild, cutover lands, which he intend
ed to develop for dairying and mar
ket gardening, his next thought was
naturally the adapting of this woody
food to farm animals. He reasoned
that the digestive organs of a deer
and a COW were greatly similar and
that the COW would thrive on this
same food If prepared in palatable
form.
A little later he secured some Of the
branches Of an alder shrub and beat
them into pulp with hammer. He
then offered quantity of 1t to a
COW, but bossy promptly turned the
mixture down and would have nothing
to do with It. A quantity of It was
then placed before her and her regu-
lar food ration was cut off Upon re-
turning next day it was found that
COW had eaten all of the pulp and that
she relished 1t. More of it was sup
piled and strict tests as to quantity
and quality Of milk were made. With
in few days clover and timothy had
no charm for the COW when wood pulp
was available. The milk tests showed
a heavier flow and Mr.. Cook then
came to the decision that he had run
upon discovery that called for fur
ther attention.
He began a search for a grinder
that would answer the purpose and
found the article desired with st.
Louis firm. Wood ground in the ma
chine was then submitted to experts
and tests showed that 1t contained
more protein than did clover or tim
0tliy hay.
The grinder has since been installed
b Mr.. Cook in building in this city
and in clearing new lands Mr.. Cook
has ordered that every twig and
branch not large enough for firewood
Be turned over to the grinder. Sew
erai types of food have been made.
