after each speaker had subsidized to the
applause of the fearful ones that. they
would be next called upon, the tuneful

all right, and the only trouble is that
the rubber growers meet but once a
year. Their next convention will be
held in Nahiku, Maui, which is very
sad.

President Lufkin introduced Treas

that 500 had been received by him for
dues, but his accounts showed that he
only had $50. 95 on hand and he wanted
Brother Lindsay to explain what has
become of that nickel.

Mr.. Lindsay made a witty speech.
He referred to Sidolights in regard to,

Former President Fred L. Waldron

and its possibilities. AS usual he was
witty and informing, incidentally re-
marking that he was tired and retired
lin favor of Lufkin.
Mr.. Won Damn, Mr.. Mckenzie, Mr..
Castle and others also spoke to the
subject and it was at a late hour when
the banquet ended, and all the growers

APPLYING LIME WITH DRILL
Success Made by Removing Rubber
Pipes or Hose and Cast-lron
Boxes-Gauee Regulates.

Formerly my neighbors, as we'll as
], have had trouble with the lime clog
ging the rubber pipes or hose. and
even the cast-iron boxes or cups to
which the rubber hose is attached. So
this year we removed the whole, rub
bers, cast-iron boxes or cups and all.
and let the lime pour down In small
open streams from each opening as
the fiat disks pushed 1t out of the fer
tilizer box. 1t is a perfect success,
and the gauge can be set to spread
from 500 to 900 pounds per acre. The
lime drops right down around the
hoes and is partly covered by them.
Then we harrow the land crosswise.
then drill In the wheat with $50 pounds
OF IA per cent. acid phosphate per
acre, put alike both on the four acres
that have been lined and the four
acres that have not been lined The
experiment costs little besides the
$50 per ton that the lime costs, laid
down at our station, and II want to
know, don't We know" whether there
is anything in lime for clay land like
mine which is already quite rich from
the glacial lime deposits?

Einancier Insists on Rest.

There is a celebrated finaneier in
Wall street who can never be got be-
tween three and four o'clock of any
fine, warm sunny autumn afternoon.
He will not even see more celebrated
financiers then. The great public is
told that he is very busy But to in
Inmates there is no secret about 1t.
Regular callers ask for Mr.. So
and SO and then watch the Office boys.
One listens at the private office door.
Another listens at the telephone board.
Can you hear him?" asks the boy at
the door. Hes not stirring" Yes,
| hear him." replies the office boy at
the switchboard. He's still snoring.
It's very clear today"
The financier sleeps in the sun which
pours through a great window. His
bed is long couch. Near it is tele-
phone with receiver down.
Before he sleeps he takes off his
boots. When the Office boys hear him
busting around to put on his boots
they know that in few minutes call
ers may get their names sent in.

Caesar and the Empire.

The reason why the Roman EN-
pire succeeded the republic" was tina;
there was felt to be an urgent need OF
a strong central power. For many
years the republic mad been desolated
and the cry of the whole people was
for peace-peace almost at any price
Now, peace could be secured only by
the ascendancy of single man, rul-
ing with absolute and irresistible
sway. SO the people acquiesced in the
change. They even hailed ii with joy
A few patriots like Brutus and Cato
gave up in despair, but most mer'
were pleased with the revolution
which made Caesar supreme. No
that they were monarchistic at heart
but that after the devastating strife
they wanted peace. even though 1t be
at the sacrifice of some Of their liber.

from this defect is the purpose of re-
cent patents here illustrated. The de-
vice is extremely simple, resembling
in general outline the customary milk
bottle, from which it differs by having
a lateral neck formed about the point
where the bottle reaches its largest
diameter. Through this neck a curved
tube of glass. paper or other suitable
material is inserted, being free to
slide in and out certain distance, or
TO rotate about its axis. Both necks
are closed with paper lids in the usual
way. The operation of the device is
SO straightforward as to hardly re-
quire explanation. When 1t is desired
TO draw off the top layer of the cream
the curved tube is turned with It's in
ner end directed upward If cream
from lower layer is required. the
tube is turned accordingly. In transit,
the tube is pushed in as far as 1t will
go. to protect 1t against injury.

aAlL BAG LOST 800 YEARS
curious Discovery Is Made In tho
Old Postoffice at Frankfort
on-Main.

A very curious discovery which
hrows some interesting side lights
III the life OF sixteenth century Eu-
'ope was made some years ago when
he contents of the old postofiice at
Frankfort on-Main were transferred to
he new premises. A complete mail
rag full of letters and apparently Of
icially sealed was discovered hidden
,mong the rafters OF the old post
over 800 years.
The bag was at first deposited In
act among the state archives, but
I has recently been handed over TO
he Imperial Postal museum, where
he curator, DR.. Sautter, has been oe-
,upied In examining the contents. DR..

Der intended to reach officers and
soldiers of the Spanish army then
operating in the Netherlands.
One can but vainly speculate upon
the disappointments, quarrels and
losses that may have resulted from
the miscarriage of all these messages.
They were no doubt serious, for in
those days letter writing was too
costly and troublesome to be under
taken without real need. DR.. Sautter
has classified the letters and pub

imperial postmaster then resident In
Cologne The letters themselves are
dated from various towns in northern
Italy.
1t Is impossible now to say how
these letters came to be deposited IN
the roof of the Frankfort postoffice.
though there can be little doubt that
it was the result of some mail robbery
which was no uncommon event at
that period The peculiar fact re-
mains, however, that the thieves Sc

Separator Milk.

Separator milk is a good pig feed.
but not a perfect pig feed by any
means. and unless cornmeal and mid
dings or ground oats is fed in thick
slop, pigs are liable to drink so much
milk that fermentation takes place in
their stomachs instead of normal d.
gestion taking place. with the result
that they bloat up and die. Don't put
medicated salt in the drink of a pig.
1t may do to mix some in his meal,
but the best way is to mix the salt
with ashes and some charcoal aud let
the pig eat it at will.
