Poe. Alr.hio Hoax.

Mr.. Fairbalrns was anticipated by
Edgar Allan Poe in the art OF aerial
hoaxing. In 1914 the New York Sun
announced one morning: "Astound'
ing news. Atlantic crossed in Three
Daysll Triumph Of Mr.. Monck Ma
sons Flying Machinel" Folks rushed
for the paper. and found therein q
long and detailed account of the cross
ing of the Atlantic in a steerable bal
loon by Mr. Monck Mason. Harrison
Ainsworth and four others. The bal
loon was minutely described, long ex-
tracts were printed from diary
which Harrison Ainsworth was sup
posed to have kept on the way. and
the whole story had such touch OF
truth that 1t took some days for New
Workers to realize how completely
they had been hoaxed.

sleenlna sinners.

In former times the question of folk
falling asleep during divine service
was one that greatly exercised the
minds of church officials. Eventually.
as certain listeners refused to be
stirred up by the discourse. it was de-
cfded to stir them up in another way.
and the beadle was depnted to make a
round of the congregation with a
"rousing stick" with which he was to
force attention. When there was no
beadle, some one specially was select
ed to perform the duty. The old Gus
tom was in vogue in the early years
of the last century. for there is rec
ord OF one Betty Finch, "a very mas
culine sort of woman" being given the
office at Holy Trinity church, Warning
tom Mistress Finch stalked up and
down the aisles during services, armed
with a great stick like fishing rod,
which had bob fastened at the end
of it, and with this she energetlcally
nudged the sleepers. Glasgow News.

What u perhaps the most remark
able accident that ever occurred was
reported Last month from Germany.
A large touring car was travelling at
fair speed along boulevard lined
with trees, and several boys were TAX
ing chances OF being arrested by the
police by shooting at the birds with.
slIngshots. One pebble, particularly
well aimed, struck sparrow ON the
upper wing and sent him gliding
through the air directly toward the
driver Of the car; the bird struck him
full In the face. and In the next In
stant things began to happen. The
driver clutched at his eyes. the
car lurched into the ditch. knocking.
down q telegraph pole. vaulted to .
plowed field on the other side Of the
ditch. and went full force into q huge
haystack. Despite this wild swerve.
no one was even scratched except the
driver, whose eyesight was damaged
by the claws of the sparrow -Leslie's.

Cleaning Up Of infection ls Huge Job,
But Believed Can be Accomplished
Same as Eradication Of
Ticks In south.

Beginning with few counties in
Iowa and Indiana, the department of
agriculture Is commencing q campaign
for the eradication Of hog cholera. AS
this disease is as widespread as the
hog raising industry. which covers the
whole country, the cleaning up Of the
infection is large order. It is be-
Neved. however. that it can be done in
much the same way that the cattle tick
Is being eradicated from the south.
Before the tick eradication work
started it was feared that it was an
impossible task. The experts of the
department. however. figured out meth
ods Of cattle dipping, pasture rotation
and other means OF control SO that
nova quarter of the area in the south
that formerly was under strict cattle
quarantine has been declared tick free
and released. Counties adjoining the
cleared territory have seen the bene-
fit and are taking up the work so that
eventually the impossible will be ac-
complished and the whole of the south
will be turned into q cattle-raising
country
1t is thought that the same thing can
be done with hog cholera. Congress
last year appropriated $4,000 to start
the work. The beginning in Iowa will
be in cooperation with the Iowa State
college. The method used will be the
serum that was developed by Doctor
Dorsett Of the department Of agricul-
tnre.
Hog cholera is by all odds the great
est scourge Of the hog-raising industry.
1t was estimated that it cost the farm
ers last year $60.000,000. Before the
I, discovery of the serum treatment the
toll was still larger. Cholera was re-
garded as inevitable and was almost
( always fatal There was no protection
against it except segregating the well
hogs, and this precaution was uncer-
tain.
The injection of the serum gives i'm
munity from attack even on close con-
tact. The immunity is not permanent,
but it lasts long enough to allow clean
tng up an entire community. It was
estimated that the second year the
serum was in use it saved about SILL :
100000. Now many Of the states are
manufacturing the serum in their own
agricultural laboratories and distribute
1t free on application.
The plan for cleaning up the country
is to commence on county areas, as is
being done in Indiana and Iowa. and
gradually spread the work, cleaning up
an widening circles and preventing the
importation Of the disease by careful
quarantine. Any specific local outbreak
win be wiped out as quickly as it can
be located,
It may be the work Of years to get
all the country cleaned, but it Is be-
Meved once it is cleaned it can be kept
30. This will mean great increase In
the hog-raising industry, larger profits
and a proportionate reduction in the
price Of meat.

MONEY IN OUNCE GROWING
There ls Unlimited Demand for Them
and Fruit Is Neglected More
Than Any Other.

Two acres of ounces ought to make
more money for the farmer than 20
acres Of apples, according to J. g.
Whitten, professor of horticulture in
the Ohio College of Agriculture. in q
lecture to the pomology class.
"The ounce is more neglected in
proportion to its merits than any Of
our orchard fruits" he said. Nobody
ever saw an overplus of ounces. There
Is an unlimited demand for them. II
the farmer has a place where they will
do well, the crop properly handled will
pay better than any of our orchard
fruits. The fruit is the firmest we have
to ship, the most handsome and the
best keeper.
According to Professor Whitten,
quince-growing has never had boom.
This is because the ounce grown un-
der ordinary treatment, as most Of our
apples and other fruits are grown, does
not have a good flavor and is poor In
quality. The trees must have individ-
ual care and expert treatment. It re-
quires the greatest skill to select the
right site for the orchard. If prop
erly handled. pruning, spraying and
picking are easier than In our other
orchards.
When cooked the ounce Is the best
of our core or stone fruits. For pre-
serves, jellies and the like. the ounce
is the richest, most highly favored and
the most delicious fruit we have"

Save the Manure.

In promptly handling barnyard
manure, the farmers can save or lose
hundreds of dollars annually. A ma
nure heap is a hot bed Of bacterial
activities. Some Of the nitrogen is
formed into ammonia and passes into
the air; this is clear loss Some is
transformed into nitrates, which are
soluble. These are washed out by
rains and sink into the soil or run on
Into the ditch; this also is a direct
loss. Some is formed by bacteria into
nitrates and these nitrates attacked by
another species of bacteria which
change into nitrogen gas. which pass
es into the air and Is lost.

Wild creatures along the arctic
coast OF North America are changing.
according to vilhjalmar Stefansson.
who writes in the Geographical Jour
nal: Contrasting pleasantly with
the gradual retreat and approaching
determination OF both the caribou and
the musk-ox is the increase In num-
bers Of three game animals-the musk
rat, the beaver and the moose Half
century ago, to the westward Of
Great Bear lake. moose were found
only on the west side Of the Macken-
zie river. They have since crossed
the river until something like twenty
years.ago they reached the west end
OF the Bear lake, some ten years ago
they got to the east end of the lake
and three years ago the first moose
were seen on the shores Of Coronation
gulf by the Rae river Eskimo.
"The history Of the spread of the
musk rat has been somewhat similar
to that Of the moose in this district,
although 1t seems to have preceded
the moose by a few decades in some
places and BY a decade or SO In 9TH
ers. They are now found in many OF
the small lakes right down to the
east coast Of Coronation gulf and Dol
phin and Union straits, but there are
hundreds Of Eskimos now living who
can remember the time when they
first saw these animals. Being strange
through newness they were considered
supernatural. and are SO even today
Although some tribes are hard put
to 1t to find skins enough for clothing,
and although they will use the inferior
skin of the marmot, they throw away
both the skin and meat of the musk
rat and use only the tails, which are
employed as charms and talismans.
The beaver, too. is spreading toward
the sea. although he has not as yet
attained SO high northing as the
musk rat. and will probably always be
confined to the timber country

: Where washington Crossed.

It is worth mentioning that the
Pennsylvania legislature has approprf
ated $4,000 for the erection Of me-
mortal and the acquisition of 100 acres
OF land at Washington Crossing on the
Delaware river. This accords with the
action taken some time ago by the
New Jersey legislature in laying out a
park on that side of the river to mark
the landing place of the Continental
troops that memorable Christmas eve.
The incident Is one of the most famil-
lar In revolutionary annals, and the
scene of the embarkation for the bat
tie of Trenton deserves to be marked.

cords these facts does not approve OF
the further project of having congress
