His ShakY Memory.

The lawyers got a tartar when, in a
recent trial in a southern city. they
summoned to the stand an aged darby
who had been an eyewitness of fight
that had occurred between a number
of persons.
TELL us what you know about this
fight said counsel when old Nose had
been placed upon the stand.
Eight" asked Nose. apparently
greatly surprised. What fight"
"You know very we'll what fight is
meant" said counsel Tell us about
it,
81 don't know nothin' about no fight"
insisted the witness. when was it?'
"See here, Noses exclaimed the
lawyer: mo trifiing-the fight day be-
fore yesterday. You know all about
it. Tell US
ooh, Gle fight day befo' Yesterday
said Nose well, sub, you see, rs
slept since de day befo' Yesterday, and
l never kin rickollect anything after
rs been asleep
And that was all they could get from
him.-Green Bag.

Blind Dogs and Rats.

CANNES born blind or Towsers that
become blind by accident are able to
smell and paw their way into the most
inaccessible and out of the way places.
1t is practically impossible to starve
them, lose them or trap them. Further
more blind dogs learn stunts just as
quickly as those that see. Loss of
sight in no way interferes with their
ability to learn tricks, acquire habits
or find their bed
Rats. as a matter of fact. if they use
their eyes at ala doubtful matter
can see little or nothing of the world
The retina of these creatures has no
point of perfect vision such as is found
in the higher animals and man: hence
their noses. muscles. touch and hearing
give them information about the world
they live in.-New York Press.

George Campbell is reported to be IN
a critical condition at his home on Van
Ruren street, and his recovery is
scarcely expected. Mr.. Campbell has
for some time been a sufferer with ar
terial sclerosis hardening of the walls
of the arteries-and few days ago he
suffered hemorrhage of the brain.
Ole Jora of Cottage Grove, who suf-
fered broken back by falling from an
upper tier of his tobacco shed, is still
alive and appears to be recovering,
though paralyzed below the waist. He
does not suffer much, enjoys sleep and
has a good appetite. His neighbors
have cared for his tobacco, bnndling it
at the stripping house of S. E. Natvig,
and it is now ready for market. His
brother has arrived from San Francisco.
Hope is entertained at the hospital
of saving the hands of Henry B. An
derson, who froze them badly while
driving from Edgerton to his home on
the j. o. Lee farm, four miles east OF
this city While in the tobacco city he
had imbibed somewhat freely, and so
gave no heed to the cold, but proceed
ed to drive home without mittens.
About a mile south of his destination
the horse ran away and galloped through
a fence on the Bovre place, rousing the
people on the farm, who proceeded to
make a search for the driver. Ander-
son was found lying in stupor in a
corn field with his hands in snow
drift, which probably prevented them
from being more badly frozen. The
next day he was brought to the local
hospital and although, as previously
stated, there are hopes of saving the
fingers, the outcome is still in doubt.
Anderson, who is unmarried, is ten
ant on John Lees farm, and is reputed
to be an industrious and hard worker,
but with the failing that he imbibes
unwisely at times.

Deerfeld

The marriage of Miss Irene Coughlin
and Mr.. Edward Doleshaw, both of
Cottage Grove, occurred at st. Mary's
church in this village on Wednesday
forenoon, Jan. 20, 1913, Rev. c. M.
Nellen officiating.
Only few strokes remain for the
completion of Deerfeld's new village
hall, and any fair minded person will
admit that it is building Deerfield
may we'll feel proud of. It's architect
ure, while becomingly modest, is pleas
ing both on the exterior and interior.
The farmers institute to be held
here on Feb. 1926 will be in charge of
T. E. Scott. He is an experienced in
stitute man, good speaker and sue
cessful farmer. You will enjoy hear
ing him. The cooking school will be in
charge of Miss Nellie Maxwell.
One hundred end thirty-five acres of
tobacco were taken in here last Mon
day morning, 623 acres being received
by Martin largo for the Pinkerton To-
bacco Co. and the rest by Harlow
Klinefelter for the Lorillard Tobacco
Co. All was shipped out of town. The
local warehouses are running full force.
Elvin Gilderhus, son of S. O. Glider
hus of North Deerfield, died at the
home of his sister, Mrs. Sam Peterson,
in the village of Cottage Grove last
Saturday night after an illness lasting
many months. Although half dozen
doctors examined the patient, none of
them was sure of the nature of the
malady. He first had swelling of the
glands of the neck and had sore
mouth and could not at that time eat
or sleep. The swelling was reduced
and the mouth healed so the patient
could both eat and sleep, but he kept
gradually growing weaker and towards
the last was delirious. Deceased was
a little over "a years old at his death.

Gave Himself Away.

A little girl was weeping bitterly in
the street. and benevolent old gen
tleman, patting her on the shoulder,
inquired what was the matter i've
lost q penny. sir the child sobbed.
The old gentleman promptly handed
her a penny. She looked at him
askance for a few seconds and then
said in a tone more of sorrow than of
anger: 'Oh. you wicked old man! So
'ou had it all the timer' London Taller

Dippir1g Range
Cattle Out West

Cattle dipping in Crowley county
under government supervIsiOD was
begun Mondny morning on tile ranch
orc, i. Patrick aud lastedi through.
out the greater part Of the week As
had been enadvertised. tile vat on tiils
ranch was designated as one or the
dipping points for Crowley county,
aud 10 appeared Monday morning that
Judge" Patrtck aud Ills assistants
would be kept pretty busy throughout
the entire week, although, 1T was said
that the cattle 10 hand TO be"sousedr
aud those in prospect constituted
about three days. work.
Tie present method of dipping is
ditrerentfrumt the original as applied
principally TO dairy cattle in that in.
stead of beinr-dipped, the cattle are
forced Through a runway and literally
"du,nped' into tile vat and compelled
to swim a matter of tenortlfteen feet
TO tile drippiug platformat the oppos-
lte end. 1'his later method, while be-
ing triiIe more dangerous Than the
actual dipping process. is much qnick-
err aud obtaius tile same results.
For the Information Of those wl,o
are no' familiar With the process, il
might be explained uhat the soluton
in winch Tile cattle are dipped, or
dumped. is madeof a Dmbination of
suiphuro Or to bacco and lime aud water
fsy-h tilif n n A
vat eight or ten feet deep and built
contiguous to the cattle pens. A rum
way only wide enough to permits two
cattle to pass Through comfortably at
7 The same time Is built from the pens
heading 70 the vat. At the edge OF
the vat is' constructed an automatic
dumping PLATFORM which gives way
under the weight of the steer and let's
him down with sufficient force To sub
merge him completely. AT The other
end of the vatlis constructed plat
form on winch the cattle dipped are
made to stand and allow the greater
part ~ the auid TO drain from theml.
They then are allowed to pass on tn a
separate pen where the drying process
il completed by the sun and thc caU-
tie are done to a beautiful sulphuric
brown. ready for the second and final
baptismal service before Uncle Sam
puts bis stamp Of approval on their
sale.
