Found by Accident.

Many valuable inventions have
come to light by the merest ac-
cident. For many months a
young man in the Kimberly dia-
amond mines was experimenting
in trying to find a way of sepa-
rating the Diamonds from other
stones other than by the long
drawn-out, tiresome hand-pick-
ing. He found only failure no
matter which way he worked,
but he did not become discour-
aged. Finally one day garnet
and a diamond happened to be
on a small board with which he
was working at his bench. He
happened also, to tip the board
in such a way that the two stones
reached it; the diamond stopped,
however, and the garnet kept
right on and fell off the board.
This fact so impressed the young
man. that he wondered if the
diamond just happened to stop
or whether the grease had the
effect. He tried it again and
again with that and with other
diamonds and he found that by
coating a board with grease and
holding it at a slight incline, and
then vibrating it, all of the dia-
monds would cling to the board
and every other stone would roll
off. He was delighted with his
accidental discovery and soon
invented a machine which was a
success from the very start, and
within a few months hand-pick-
ing was superseded and a great
deal of labor and cost was saved
to the mine owners.

"The Jumping Frenchman.v y

Scientists have long been puzzled
to account for peculiar affliction Of
the nerves possessed by many French
Canadians, particularly those belong
ing to the working and artisan classes.
II spoken to suddenly and sharply,
they for a moment lose complete pos
session of themselves; and do the
most absurd things in obedience to a

Jump" and they will, If told to-,
throw away anything which they may
have in their hands. A nudge in the
ribs is followed by a long leap or
sometimes by flying kick. Innum-
cradle rough practical jokes are play
ed by means of this mysterious power.
Many man in a crowd has received
a rousing kick from behind only to
find upon turning round that his ag-
gressor was the involuntary victim of
some mischievous person in the

ease has never been located. 1t is

poultry, 100 kilos Of salad, and twice

BID FEEDING Test Made.

Oregon Agricultural College, Corval-
lis.-Professor Sampson, of the depart
ment of animal husbandry of the Ore
gon agricultural college, has complet-
ed a feeding test with pigs which has
been running since September 1. The
results Of the test are significant in
that they open up broad field for
developing pigs with the definite pur.
pose Of making them capable of con-
suming greater amount of food for
correspondingly greater gains.
On September /, 30 pigs of different
litters were divided into three lots Of
10 each. All were put on a ration Of
barley 80 per cent, and tankage 10
per cent. and the test was continued
for 61 days. Lot one was given dry
rations, by hand. Lot two was fed by
means Of the "self-feeder." Lot three
was fed by hand, the rations being
soaked for IL hours before feeding
The three lots were divided evenly as
to weight, sex and parentage.
Lot one required 1895 pounds Of
feed for 100 pounds gain; lot two re-
quired 1882 pounds feed for 100
pounds gain, and lot three 449.8
pounds feed for 100 pounds gain. The
difference in daily gain between the
litters Of pigs was from 1.42 to 1856
pounds. The difference between the
lots varied only from LAB to 1874
pounds. The poorest lot was better
than the poorest litter and the best
lot was better than the best litter.
The best individual pig gained 2.44
pounds daily for 81 days, while the
poorest individual animal gained but
one pound day, during the test. In
feeding 100 pigs similar to the best
used In the recent test, at the present
prices Of feed and of pork, the owner
would realize $297.60 profit, not count.
ing labor or investment. In feeding
100 pigs similar to the poorest, he
would realize but $115.65 profit. The
tests show the self-feeder is an eco
nomical means of producing pork
The labor Of feeding is reduced one
half by this method and less feed is
required.
