Hookeu a Big Snark.

The officers of the steamer Limon. which reached her berth at Long wharf yesterday afternoon, told a story of the capture of a man-eating shark while the big fruiter was taking on cargo at Port Limon, Costa Rica. says the Boston Globe. One of the negro fruit handlers was fishing over the side. He had thrown out a small hook baited with meat and almost i'm. mediately it was snapped up by an exceedingly voracious man eater.
 Every one on board ship ran to see the fun. The negro played the shark until 1t was exhausted, and then one of the crew went down the Jacobs lad. der and slipped moose under its fins. The monster was hauled to the deck. but before it was killed it knocked one negro down. Two of the sailors killed 1t with heavy club. The shark measured 12 feet and weighed 500 pounds. It was the largest of it's spe- cies ever seen at Port Limon.

M arooncd Fishes.

When the water of the Mississippi river and its tributaries falls after the annual freshets, it leaves many casual ponds and pools. In them are held cap tive great numbers of fishes, which the bureau of fisheries undertakes to rescue each year, before they are killed by the drying up or the freezing of the waters. During the fiscal year 1914 the bureau thus saved 2,500,000 fishes of all species-about three times as many as it saved the year before. Most of the fishes 1t returns to the main streams, but some it keeps for culture in ponds or to stock waters in other parts of the country-Youth' Companion

Willing to ObIiqe.

A lady warned her new gardener that her husband had an irritating habit of disparaging everything in the greenhouse, and of ordering in a reck- less manner new plants to be bought, but on no account was the gardener to humor him. Whatever he says, throw cold water on him, or he will ruin us with his extravagances."
 At this point the new gardener turned on her white and startled face. "Ma'am," he said, "if he orders me to pitch every plant in the place on the rubbish heap, I sha'n't ever have the pluck to douse him with cold water. Won't it do as we'll if I get a drain of warm water out of the boiler and let it trickle gently down his neck?"

SOLVE FARM LABOR PROBLEM
in Keeping Reliable Hired Men
Medicine Chest Is Handy.

Dairy equipment is one of the great
est aids in solving the farm labor
problem. Observation leads one to be-
lieve that the farmers who are trying
to run good dairy farm are having
the least trouble in keeping reliable
hired men. The man who is RESPONSE
BILE for the condition of a respectable
looking dairy barn equipped with mod
ern labor saving appliances feels that
he owns a position and not a mere
job. Unless he is the kind of en-
ployee who can succeed nowhere he
will appreciate the efforts of the farm
er to produce good milk in an econom-
ical manner. The hired man feels
that it is worth while to cooperate.
A good medicine chest is a .neces-
sary feature of the dairy barn. The
farmer cannot be his own veterina-
rian, but he can keep a supply Of sim
pie remedies for the bovine troubles
which can be cured by the use of sim
pie applications. This chest should
not consist of a dirty cloth and cou-
pie of empty bottles either, as dirt
diseases cause vast amount of trou-
BILE among all kinds Of animals. and
if wounds are not carefully treated
and thoroughly protected from infec-
ton, the home treatment always leads
to unfortunate developments.

PREPARE EXHIBITS FOR FAIR
Plans for Capturing Blue Rib
bons-Spray the Fruit.

At this time of year the secretaries
Of various fair associations are ar
ranging their plans for the exhibits
which will be held this fall These
are reminders that this is the best
time of year in which to lay plans for
capturing the blue ribbons. Fruit
growers, particularly, need to begin
their work now for the exhibits they
will make at the fairs and apple
shows, for the fruit which will wear
the ribbon must be sprayed.
But even if it is not now the expec-
tation of any fruit grower to maEs an
exhibit at a fall show, the chances
are that he will change his mind
when the premium lists arrive, and it
is just as well to begin. Sprayed fruit
is coming to be the only kind to which
the better class Of fruit dealers will
give any consideration, and in spray
ing it is we'll TO co the spraying with
the idea in mind that every fruit must
be show fruit Show fruit might real
ly be called extra fancy so far as its
grade is concerned, and the extra"
applies not only to the grade, but also
to the returns which the fruit will
bring. So, after all, it is well for ev-
cry one Of US to feel that our crop
is to be show fruit, and work through
out the entire summer with that ideal
In mind whether or not we actually
place any of it in the exhibits.
