Denver, Aug 23.-Greeley this
season is the greatest pea-raising
point in the west. Reports just re-
ceived here by the state horticultur-
al department indicate that the crop
this season is the largest in the his
tory of the district. The Greeley fac
tory in 81 days run put up I SOC 900
cans valued at $4,000. There were
1,i0O acres of peas grown for this
factory. The output will find a
ready market in Australia, as well as
this country. 1t is already being
planned to plant 5000 acres to peas
next season--more than double the
present acreage. Farmers have ay-
eraged in excess of $40 per acre
from their peas. The banner crop
was raised by b. X. Williams near
Pleasant Valley. One acre netted
him $50. and from nine acres he
realized $50" -a-r 1Ga

he slipped and. falling forward. dash.
ed his elbow through the window Of a
wine shop. The proprietor rushed out
to claim the price of his window. and
a large crowd gathered to see fair
play. The man who had broken the
window protested that he had no mon
ey. "Search him!" shouted some one
in the crowd. There were no police
men about. so the wine shop keeper
and a few friends took the law into
their own hands, searched the mans
pockets and found a 500 franc note
The crowd advised the wine shop
keeper to pay himself well for his
broken window. He took so francs tt
pay for his broken glass, and the un'
popular man who had broken it went
away with a torn coat and $50 francs

Honey Bread.

In Europe, where the food value Of
honey seems to be much better under.
stood than in the United States, enor-
nous quantities are used. OF late
years we seem to be waking to a re-
alization of the value of honey as o
wholesome and delicious article OF
food and also as to its preservative
qualities. Cakes and sweet breads
made with sugar soon become dry and
crumbly and to get the good of them
must be eaten when fresh. But where
they are made up with honey they
seem to retain their moist freshness
indefinitely. In France honey bread a
year or eighteen months old is prefer
red to that just made. They say, 1T
has ripened." It is the p~reservative
or, rather, the unchanging quality OF
honey that makes it so popular with

Alb Murray and sons are doing quite
a stroke of farming this year at their
place south of Mary, where they have
sown about 81 acres of flax and IS acres
of oats. This will give them loads Of
grain to haul when they are making

stock.
Among live stock from tile horse down
to the chicken. without exception, corn
seems to be the most appreciated grain
feed. 1t has been suggested that it is
possibly on account of the kernels of
corn breaking up into nutty pieces, in
stead of forming a more or less pasty
mess in the mouth a. oats. barley and
wheat will do. Another suggestion
ha been that the oil in the corn kernel
is a particular delicacy for live stock.
In any event. the fact remains that
they all like it remarkably we'll. 1t is
also the most f%attening of any of the
grain feeds. and therefore particularly
adapted for finally feeding live stock
for market. 1t also produces the highest

AS a fabric, wool is useful for ar

wool are desirable as we have warmth

NORTH DAKOTA WOOL
State Contributes Literally to
Clothing of Citizens.
In 1907 Sheep Numbered 81, 400, 1t Q
Valuation Of $2,476,A29-Quallty
and Quantity Depended IN
Breed Of Animals.

(By PROF. JESSIE NJ. HOOVER, North
Dakota Agricultural College.)
In the good old days when all the
processes involved in the manufacture
of wooden cloth from the sheep back
to the finished garment were done in
the home by the various members Of
the family, it was of very little impor.
lance to study textiles for their adul.
terations. Homespun meant Just one
thing, and that vas "all wool and q
yard wide." With the removal Of
spinning and weaving from the home
into the factory, a strong competition
has been established and hence a
tendency to adulterate fabrics. It
shall be the purpose Of this article to
mention the principal characteristics
Of wool and to give its Sci.
The chief source of the wool supply
is sheep, and North Dakota has con.
tributed rather literally to the cloth.
ing of her citizens. In 1907 the sheep
Of North Dakota numbered 647,409 and
9 valued at $2,476,4 29. This, when
considered in terms Of dresses and
coats should clothe every citizen of
the state not only in comfort, but lux
ury.
The quality and quantity of wool de.
ponds on the breed of the sheep, eli.
mate, care, food, and even the soil has
much to do with the quality Of wool,
an alkaline soil being detrimental.
The following cut accounts for sew
eral characteristics in wool.
Each fiber Is covered with scales or
serrations all pointing in the same
direction and they may be compared
to fish scales or the scales Of a pine
cone. These serrations account for
the roughness Of the wool. Some per-
sons having a tender skin find wooden
garments very irritating. If wool is
stroked in the direction of the scales
it Is smooth, but If the direction of
the stroke Is reversed it Is rough and
harsh. Not only do the serrations on
the wool account for it's roughness, but
also for it's shrinkage. When wooden
cloth is washed and rubbed the scales
become ~interlocked so that the SER
rations do not loosen easily and we
say that wool shrinks in hot water.
Wool as a textile fabric has both ad.
vantages and disadvantages. Among
it's advantages should be mentioned its
beauty, it Is soft and lustrous; it's
warmth, it Is a good non-conductor; it
absorbs moisture readily. It has some
disadvantages, namely, its cost, it's
tendency to irritate sensitive skin.

side Of the dancing ground and the
men on the other, till they have work

the las launeddas is played by a man
who walks up and down between the
dancers. As a rule, the men and WON
en- do not mix, whether dancing or not,
but keep each to their own side. The
dances take place on Sundays OF feast
