each one agrees to favor such a pan.
Mr.. Fraley says a number of men
have agreed to contribute toward "A

of the election and that he will guar
antee that the expenses are all paid
from private sources.
These who approached Mr.. Slaugh-
ter on the question report that he
is not inclined to be dictatorial in
the appointment, that he desires to
please the people in that appointment
and indicated that he would give plen-
ty Of time for holding the election by

DEFY THE EFFORTS OF MAN
Moving Sand Dunes Are the Bane of
the Life of Peruvian Rail-
road Builders.

For miles on either side of the track,
as far as the eye could reach, there
was not green thing to be seen. Al
though there was no animal or vege-
table life, 1t is not exactly correct to
say there was not a living thing, for
this is the home of the medanos, those
extraordinary crescent shaped sand
dunes that travel across the hard
ground of the desert floor desert of
Arequipa, PERU, driven by the pre-
vailing southwesterly winds.
Each hill is a perfect crescent, ex-
quisitely drawn, the delicate horns
tapering off toward the north away
from the wind. They cause the rail-
road no end of trouble, for. when a
medano approaches the track, 1t must
get across some way or other. 1t is
of no use to shovel back the horns OF
the crescent as they encroach on the
rails, for the main body of the mound,
twenty feet high and sixty feet or
more wide, will advance just the same
and must be helped along.-From

weeds, some of which may become n
decided menace to his locality.
Some Of the weed seeds appearing
in red clover seed can be removed by
the farmer by the use OF a wire-cloth
sieve containing 20 meshes to the
linear inch. Most of the clover seeds
Of medium size are held back by such
sieve and practically all the smaller
weed seeds pass through The true
clover dOdder, which Is a very noxious
pest In clover fields, is quite effective
ly removed in this way Most of the
seeds of the field dodder are also re-
moved. Seed or buCkhorn, wild car
rot, Wild chicory. thistles. and others
of similar size are mostly held back
by the sieve. The small grained clover
seed imported from Europe largely
passes through such n sieve. An easy
method Of separating buCkhorn seed
from clover has been devised. This
method consists of mixing with the
seed containing the buckhorn thor
oughly wettcd sawdust. The buck
horn seed becomes sticky on being wet
and readily attaches Itself to the saw
dust The entire mass Is then imme-
diately screened. when the larger par
ticles of sawdust. with the buckhorn
attached, are readily separated from
the clover seed. This work should be
done Immediately before sowing the
clover seed, which, with the small
particles OF sawdust that pass the
screen, need to be dried only suffi-
ciently to enable the seeding to take
place readily. This is an effective
means of removing practically all
buckhorn seeds and is easily accom-
plished by the farmer who handles a
comparatively small quantity of seed
which is not necessarily bulked i'm
mediately afr the somewhat damp
seed has been screened out.

HOW SAUSAGE MAY BE KEPT
Packed In Lard It Will Stay Fresh for
an Almost Indefinite Pc
riod,

Sausage may be kept Indefinitely
by packing it in lard. Make it into
cakes by pressing It into small bread
pans, making each cake contain about
he amount you would need at a meal.
Alter frying each cake slightly on all
sides set two of them on end in a
small jar, which has previously been
well heated, and pour melted lard
around them until the jar is filed one
nch above the tops Of the cakes.
When needed for use set the crock
a warm place until the lard is melt
ed, and take out what you want. BY
aging the other cake down on its side
'ery little more lard,has to be added.
Of course, lard so used can be utilized
great many times.

Peas and Tomatoes.

Where there is a good market for
both peas and tomatoes these crops
may be grown together TO good ad-
vantage. the peas should be planted
as soon as the ground can be prepared
and the tomatoes are set after danger
Of hard frost, which, in most sections
or the north, will not be before the
fifteenth or twentieth Of May. If tho
rows OF peas are four feet apart, two
or three pea plants must be removed
at the required distances in the rows
to make place for each tomato plant,
T. e.. If the tomato plants are to stand
four feet apart each way the pea
plants Will be removed at intervals OF
four feet in the row. This plan has
been used with entire success in Penn
sylyania.
