HAS TURTLES WELL TRAINED
Naturalist Seems TO Have Accom-
plished Something Very Close to
the impossible.

OF all living creatures the turtle
is undoubtedly the slowest in ita
movemen and probably possesses the
least brain. Yet a well-known
American naturalist has succeeded
in training three of these creatures
to do a number of little tricks. He
places them, one above the other on
spools, and if piece of cabbage OF
other green stuff is held out in
front of them, they will make a
complete circuit, all moving in uni
son, keeping their balance and not
tumbling off. The bigger turtle will
also ring bell. This it grasps in
one of its fore feet, jerks it off the
ground, and then gives it shake.
1t is quite amusing to watch the
slow, deliberate manner in which
this is done. The turtles have al
ways lived in their owners house,
spending their time in the kitchen
hunting down the vermin. One of
the turtles draws a little cart about
the garden, task which he 'appar-
emily does not resent in the least.
Of course he is never kept harnessed
for any length of time. He is quite
tame, follows the children about the
garden, and will even eat from their
fingers.

PRIMITIVE COFFEE MILL

Coffee must undergo considerable
treatment before it is ready for the
coffee pot. The great coffee planta-
tons in South America, today are
equipped with modern machinery,
but in out of the way places the old
primitive methods of handling cof-
fee are still in vogue. The outer
covering of the coffee bean must be
removed before the berry can be
dried. This pulping, as it is called,
necessitates an immense amount OF
labor.
