PUT END TO FRoG-FARMING
Audubon's Scheme Might Have Been
Good but for One Small. Unfore-
seen Incident.

There is an amusing story told II
connection with the first venture II
frog-farming ever made in the United
States
Early In the last century Audubon
the great ornithologist, went down the
Ohio river from Pennsylvania In 9
little steamer of his own, stopping al
various points to obtain specimens Of
little-known birds.
While at Hendersonyflle. Kentucky
which he made his home for some
time. he built mill and proposed to
raise frogs on q large scale, preparing
for that purpose pond near the
river.
The frogs multiplied wonderfully
and on warm summer evenings It was
the practice Of Audubon to sit under
tree near the pond. listening to the
concert given by his stock. and cal
culating the amount of money he
should derive from the sale OF the
grown frogs.
But one night, when the frogs were
nearly grown, they heard the booming
Of bullfrogs In the Ohio. Their curios-
ity. was aroused. and hopping out Of
the pond, they made their way to the
river. into which they plunged and
disappeared

MAKE THE SKINNER SECURE
Scheme for Fastening Cream Separa-
tor to Cement Floor Tried and
Found Very Satisfactory.

Here is a scheme for fastening a
cream separator down on a cement
floor which we have tried and found
very satisfactory. Before putting in
the cement floor, three-fourths inch
bolt was threaded to the middle, then
put through hole in a small piece of
scrap iron, writes Dan Belt of La
Crosse, Kan, in the Farmers Mail and
Breeze. The bolt and iron were firm
Iy imbedded in the fresh cement, leav-
Ing the threaded end sticking out. The
base of the separator was then firmly
bolted to two pieces of two by four.
