MUCH STOCK WAS
KILLED BY DOGS
Township Report on Expend-
itures Resulting from
Raids by Dogs.

In Wayne, Boston and Clay town
1910, killing many sheep. cattle and
poultry, according to the financial dog
reports. which were filed by the trus-
tees of townships with county auditor
Demas Coe. Dalton township was the
only one in the county wherein dogs
did not kill any stock during the year.
The receipts for meeting these eX-
penditures in the different townships
were raised by dog tax, 81 for male
and s3 for female dogs. Whatever bal
ances the trustees had over a hun
dred dollars in their dog funds at the
end of the year were turned over to
county treasurer, Albert Albertson and
credited to the county school fund.
The total amount which will be dis
tributed to the different township and
corporation school funds is not as yet
known. inasmuch as the report from
Jefferson township has not been filed.
The money will be distributed to the
school systems in proportion to the
number of persons of school age in
these districts.
The Method Pursued.
In order that the township trustees
will always have money in the treas
ury which may be expended in set
tling up stock killings promptly upon
repoyts being made. the township of
ficial is permitted to retain 500 from
the last years collections. The resi-.
due of the fund is turned over to the
county treasurer. In case the dog
taxes are. insufficient meet the ex
penditures for live stock killed, the
official draws the required amount
from the treasurer, as was the case
in Boston and Clay townships, the
Clay township trustee having a def
cit of s166.5O and the Boston township
| trustee a deficit Of $165.50. The foi
| lowing table shows the amounts col
lected in dog tax. the amount paid out
| for live stock killed and the balance
on hand, if any at the end of the year:

A Phillips Brooks Story.

In the Christian Endeavor World the
Rev. Francis E. Clark writes of his at.
tending Andover Theological seminary
with John Cotton Brooks, brother Of
the famous Massachusetts bishop and
sector, the Rev. Phillips Brooks. The
writer says:
I recall one repartee which Johr
Brooks ascribed to his brother Phillips
A famous but sensational Boston
preacher. who soon afterward fell
from his high estate. being a great
sportsman and decidedly "horsy," had
written a much advertised book en-
titled 1.-The Perfect Horse" Yes"
said Phillips Brooks. 1.-The Perfect
Horse by the perfect ass This was
the only sentiment bordering on i'll
nature that I ever heard attributed to
this most genial and kind hearted of
men, and this could easily be forgiven
when one remembers the skyrocket
preacher of whom it was said.

In the vast equatorial forests Of
Africa the most dreaded Of animals is
the great bull ant Unlike other ants.
1t carries nothing away; everything Is
eaten on the spot Every kind of beast
and reptiie-elephants. lions, gorillas.
snakes and man himself-flees before
this terrible insect.
These ants march through the for
ests in long thin column, two inches
wide and miles in length. If they come
to an open space where there are no
trees to shelter them from the sun
they burrow underground and form
tunnels, through which they march on.
It often takes as long as twelve hours
for one of these armies to pass.
Any creature overtaken is at once
attacked with irresistible fury and in
stantly devoured. The strongest and
the weakest, the most fierce and the
most timid of creatures are alike
their prey.
Natives overtaken by them seek ref
uge in the nearest river or pond. Yet
even when the ants themselves are
drowned their strong pincers refuse
to relax their hold upon any flesh they
may have attached themselves to, and.
though their bodies are torn forcibly
away, their heads remain.

FRIED POTATOES.
Sold on the Streets From Pushearts In

Sold on the Streets From Pushearts In
Parts Of France.
The street vending Of pommes frites.
or French fried potatoes. is peculiar
to the northern part Of France. Pom
mes frites take the place Of peanuts
and popcorn and are sold in much the
same fashion. Not only is this trade
carried on in some instances as regu-
larly established business. but work
men wishing to increase their earnings
come out on the streets In the evening
and sell these fried potatoes from
pushcarts. Their profits often exceed
their days wages.
The pushcarts are of the ordinary
type. but covered. A coke brazier is
inserted through the flooring over
which is placed the large iron caldron
holding the fat obtained from beef
suet. Raw potatoes. after being pared.
are pressed through special cutting
machine. coming out in long. narrow.
four sided pieces These are immedi-
ately put into the boiling fat and in
several minutes are thoroughly cooked.
They are then sailed and sold in small
paper cornucopias holding or cents
worth.
Pommes frites have the advantage
that they supply satisfying and nu
tritive meal for a few cents. This Is
especially appreciated by the mill en-
ployees during the noon hour. as they
are thus enabled to have something
hot with their otherwise cold lunches.
Rather than so to the trouble Of pre-
pairing the dish. to say nothing Of 6ll-
ing the house with the Od0r Of boiling
fat. many families prefer to purchase
the freshly cooked tubers from the
nearest vender. These fried potatoes
are not sold merely at mealtimes. hut
during the day. and are eaten like pop.
corn.-Consular Reports.
