a..xilian Rat Catchers.

Rats are q great nuisance in certain
parts of Brazil, where the climate Is
very warm. The common cat does not
thrive for some unaccountable reason,
but is replaced by domestic rat catch
er. whose presence causes decidedly
unpleasant sensation to visitors when
first they come in contact with the
creature. 1t is a species Of small boa
constrictor-tbe gibola. The snakes
are not venomous. They sleep In the
house, generally taking up their posi-
ton at the foot Of the stairs. When
nightfan approaches they begin to
awaken, and during the night they
glide swiftly about the premises look
ing for rats. Gibolas are offered fol
sale in the markets Of Bahia and Per
nambuco at prices ranging from 81 &c
IS, according to the size of the crea
ture. 1t is claimed that they are sc
easily domestcated that, If removed
from one house to another, they IN
yariably return to the house whence
they have been taken.

Livestock Increases
On National Forests

From the Forest Service, U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture.)
Figures showing the humber
of livestock for which the secre
tary of agriculture has author
lied grazing permits for the
ranges on the 1b9 national for
ests during the year 1914 have
just been made public. Nearly IL
million animals can be grazed,
including nearly 2 million head
of cattle and horses, nearly 9
million head of sheep and goats,
and about IS thousand hogs.
This means an increase for the
surrent year of about 3S thous-
and more cattle and horses, and
347 thousand more sheep and
goats, although the gross area
of the national forests at the be-
ginning of 1914 is almost a mil
lion acres less than at the be-
ginning of 1913.
During 1913, according to tht
reports just compiled, more thar
81 thousand Stockmen paid thu
government for grazing permits
on the national forests.
>, For several years past the car
rying capacity of the nationa
forest ranges has been slowl,
rising, which, forests officer
say, indicates an improvement il
general grazing conditions and
!: better utilization of the forag,

is due mainly to the enforcement
: of better methods of distributin.

On the lands recently acquires
. by the federal government within
the Appalachian region of tn
east, regulated grazing has beel
undertaken this year on six dis
! tinct areas. The local stool
owners who had previously uset
the land under lease from tn
former owners have readily &C
cepted the change of ownership
i and appear to be fayorably i'm

i ployed by the forest service TO

The Apple Cr0p.

From present indications there
will be bumper apple crop in
Jefferson this year, but as like
prospects prevail generally
throughout the United States
and Canada it is of course UNI
likely that growers will get
anything like the prices that
were obtained FOR the last years
comparatively small crop.
At the same time, from an
economic standpoit the apple is
fast getting to be big factor,
and in few years will probably
bring more money into the coun-
ty than now comes from any
other source.
A careful survey recently made
puts the number of apple trees
in bearing in Jefferson at two
hundred and ninety thousand.
1t is estimated tina in the total
acreage planted to apples there
are in the county a half-million
trees.
The average wheat crop of the
county has been put by esti-
majors at six hundred Thousand
bushels, so that even with moder-
ate prices the value of the apple
crop will run that of the wheat
crop a close race.
Frederick county, Virginia
authorities place the the crop to
be moved from that county this
fall at five hundred thousand
barrels.
When we consider the amount
of labor. engaged in cultivating,
pruning, spraying, picking, pack
ing and hauling the crop and
the cooperage and cold storage
interests affected, it can be sur
missed what a big factor the ap-|
pie crop is going to be.
Whether the growers make ]
money or not depends more on
care in thinning, grading and
packing and proper distribution |
than perhaps anything else.-I

Still Some Fruit In Gold STORAGE

Some of the apples picked and
packed in the Frederick county
orchards last fall are still in the
Winchester plant of the C. L.
Robinson Ice and Cold Storage
Corporation. They number a
little more than 4, 600 barrels and
the fruit is still in good condi-
ton.
Most of the apples now in the
Robinson cold storage plant are
owned by the William Hartma n
Company, of st. Louis, repre-
scented here by Mr.. F. A. Beck.
and the balance by Mr.. John
Thwaite. Some have been sold
recently at excellent prices, and
1t is expected the entire lot will
be disposed Of in the near future.
Dispatches to the New York
Packer last week from various
sections of the country stated
that practically all the apples
packed last fall have been clean
ed up, and that few are to be
had in any of the northern and
western markets. There are
none of consequence in New York
state,

JACKSON HONORED.

The hero who lies buried at Lex
ington in the Valley of Virginia, be-
longs to a race that is not confined
to a single continent; and to those
who speak the same tongue. and in
whose veins the same blood flows,
his words come home like an echo
of all that is noblest in their history !:
What is life without honor? Deg
radiation is worse than death. We
must think of the living and of those
who are to come after US. and see
that by Gods blessing we transmit
to them the freedom we have our
selves inherited
With these splendid words of
Stonewall Jackson. Lieutenant Col
olnel c. F. R. Henderson concludes
lis magnificent biography of that
nero to whom the South recently
paid tribute.
There. could have been no nobler
motto for that day. no better in
scription for the monument CRATE
full purpose in love to uprear-what
is life without honor. Military gen.
Jus that he was, worthy peer for the
great captain of the ages, Jackson
did not tender his services to Viz
GINA to display his ability or to lead
a host to battle. To him, as to
thousands less distinguished. the call
of arms was a call to honor. Far
more was endangered than property.
for more even than the sacred rights
of the States, Honor. that priceless
heritage of nobleman of every age.
was at stake-the honor not only
of those who unfurled a new flag,
but the honor of men who were to
beget generations of freemen.
1t was because Jackson and his
compeers fought for honor that they
were never vanquished. The armies
they led were melted as snow in the
furnace of war the cities they de-
Tended were burned with the torch
the,old society of which they were
the flower withered at the root; but
the Honor they upheld could not
die. 1t rose triumphant from the
bier on which Jackson lay; it rode
before General Lee when he came
home from Appomattox +; it made
the -thorns of defeat the laurels of
victory for the limping legions that
went back to the trenches into corn
fields. l
1t was because he fought for hon.
or and it is because that honor tri-
umphed that the South paid its be-
lated tribute to the memory of Gen
eral Jackson, Northern visitors, who
gaze at the monuments, will not un-
derstand this. They will see in the
bronze horsemen and the marble
figures the unseemly display of a
crushed rebellion. They will not
and cannot understand that the
South dedicated the memorials not
so much to valor as to honor, not
so much to cause as to a principle
that is immortal.
Viewed from this angle, the rear
ing of monument to General Jack
son was one that could not be urged
in the threadbare terms of the every
day appeal. The South merely dis
played in humble manner that viz
tue Jackson exemplified-the South
was but honoring Honor.-Martins-
