Mexico Land Of Cathe drals.

The distinctive characteristic OF
Mexico is land of cathedrals, which
like the scattered beads from the ros-
airy of some Franciscan monk. are
strewn from the Bravo del Norte to
where the winds from the tropics watt
the palms. Previous to disestablish-
ment of church and state, the treasures
and wealth of these old monasteries
were fabulous: and though Juarez,
the full-blooded Indian who is looked
upon as the emancipation of Mexico,
seized church property and contiscated
much, yet the buildings still stand
as monuments to a colonization that
was ardently Catholic, and are won
derful types of the Spanish renais-
sance. With huge domes, half-orange
shape $50 designated in Mexican archi-
lecture, Media Naranja'D, these stu
pendous buildings are decorated with
wonderful specimens of wood cary

form the joist in many cases. Mexico
lavished the interior of these edifices
with onyx columns, marble affairs, sill

nacles.

How to provide for the army of the
unemployed, thrown out of work be-
cause of the business depression re-
sulting from the European war, is
naturally a much more serious prob
lem in the British colonies than any
where else outside of the continent OF
Europe. The city of Edmonton, Can
ada, has found at least partial solu.
ton, and one that puts no added bur
den on either the taxpayer or the char
liable. The bars of the Saskatchewan
river, which runs through the city,
contain much gold dust of the very
fine flour variety. With the outbreak
of the European war and the neces-
sity to provide as much available
work for men whom war conditions
might throw out of employment, the
city council turned to the gold-mining
industry, which offered returns right
within a hundred yards of the citys
main streets. A number of expert
enced mining men who had settled in
the city after the Klondike rush of
'9S offered to act for while as in
structors to the uninitiated, and some
200 men soon went to work. The av-
erage cleanup per man for the months
of August and September was about
$3.50 to 81 day.-Popular Mechanics

Doa Hero Saves little Girl.

Little Elsie Perry, daughter of c. L.
Perry of Wilson, N, c., was saved
from the fangs of a rabid dog by the
bravery of nondescript dog, the
property of Mr.. Perry. and the con-
slant playmate of little Elsie.
While playing in front of her home
the little girl was attacked by large
dog, which came running down the
street. Her playmate, much smaller
than the attacking dog, threw himself
on it, and battled grimly, until the
little girl escaped into the house. The
canine hero was terribly bitten in the
encounter, and when it was learned
that the strange dog had rabies, the
hero had to be shot, as physicians
said it was certain he would go mad.
He was buried with the highest hon.
ors.

AS test the turnip year after year.
I think more highly of its value as a
farm product that can be put to many
uses. On the table it is wholesome
and good and ranks after potatoes and
cabbage.
AS a feed | value 1t highly. There
is no herbivorous animal that does not
relish it. The horse Is often an ap-
parent exception, but with little eff
fort he can be taught to acquire the
taste.
1t is usual to say that turnips make
the milk taste, but we are feeding
them once a day-at noon-to our Jer-
sey COW and selling the butter to
pleased customers. No taste of tur-
nips is distinguishable.
We feed from peck to half
bushel. When one is dropped where
the hens can get It, it never remains
long, during the winter the poultry
will eat large quantities of turnips,
and they thus cheaply supply the
green vegetable ration so essential to
good health.
Up to the last of February I pulled
up tops and roots from the patch and
threw them into the poultry lot, where
the hens would crowd around to get a
share, ard it was surprising to see
how much they would eat, although
we'll fed on mash and grain.
AS to the horses, began by tossing
a turnip into the feed box as ! passed
them, which at first they would only
sniff at, and nose around, but 1t was
not long until noticed the turnips had

HIS HEAD IN SHARKS MOUTH
Black Diver Claims to Have Had Re-
markabIe Experience With Sea
Monster.

Writing in Harper's Magazine OF his
visit to Thursday island in the Torres
strait, Norman Duncan narrates some
OF the natives With the savage tiger
sharks of these waters:
1T is said that the coastal aborigine
IL not greatly afraid OF a shark-that
he is match for a shark, indeed. in
fair water, when not taken unawarl.
He may lose leg or an arm, or he
may be carried off bodily, but in any
event the damage will be due rather
to the cunning approach of the shark
than to the limitations of the diver.
Fairly warned, he will dive to the bot
tom, roll the water, and thus elude
the attack and if he is pugnaciously
disposed at the moment tthey say
if the shark impolitely interrupts him
at a critical or deeply interested mo-
ment-he will give fight 1t is true,
of course, that the naked divers are
accustomed to escape by rolling the
water; such instances are common;
but | have no stomach for the tale
that any man will go out of his way
to challenge combat with twenty
foot tiger-shark-even when angered
by an untmely interruption.
Il recall two stories of narrow es-
cape. The one concerns young Jap
anese diver who was taking a craytish
to the surface, and all at once found
himself in a furious engagement. 10
was incautious of the diver to have a
Crayfish; and this indiscreet diver
came out of the consequent encounter
with a lacerated thigh and one arm
missing. The other story is hardly
credible, related far from the scene;
/ cannot vouch for it, at any rate, hav-
ing had no means of authenticating
1t; but as have not hesitated to swal-
low 1t whole, and have been pleasant

eXclaim aghast. will tell it for what
it is worth. 1t seems that a black
beche-de-mer boy. swimming, naked
and distracted close to the reef in
search of slugs, awoke all at once to
an amazing situation. 1t was not that
the shark was near-not that 1t had
turned and was darting, but that his
head was actually in the sharks wide
open mouth. The black boy acted
sharply; he withdrew his head in a
flash, having at the same time
punched the shark (as they put it
to distract attention from the matter
in hand and he rescued himself after
brisk tussle, and lived to prove the
adventure with a SCARED cheek"

SPINACH REQUIRES
A GOOD, RICH SOIL
Sow in Drills If Possible, as
Ground Can Be Kept Loose
and Free of Weeds.

Spinach is a gross feeder and for
best results requires rich soil. If a
small area is only available, it will
be sown broadcast in beds; but by all
means sow in drills If possible, as
the ground can be kept loose ami
free from weeds during the summer.
For all regions north of the Ohio
river the winter protection should be
given. and this may consist of coarse
litter of any kind. In general, mulch
ing is not required south Of that line.
In the North the covering serves two
purposes; not only protection from
freezing, but it Is also more easily
gathered when thus protected from
the snow
AS to varieties for autumn sowing,
the Prickly Winter and the Long
Standing are the best. or the 70 mer
variety. the term "prickly" applies only
to the seeds; not to the foliage or edi.
BILE part
Long Standing is so named from its
habit Of remaining in edible condition
for a long time before going to seed.

WOMEN MAKE MONEY
BY RAISING CRESS
Popular Salad Plant More Valued
in These Days Than Ever
Before-HoW to Plant.
(By MAUDE HYMERS)

The woman owning bit of ground
across which runs stream Of water
is fortunate indeed! especially If the
home lies within daily driving distance
to the city.
For this low, moist ground, consid-
cred usually as so much waste space,
may be made to yield dollars to the
woman capable of grasping the posi-
bilities of cultivating water cress.
This delectable salad plant is more
valued in these days than ever before
AS the first step, have the stream
cleared, ready for planting the cress.
This may be done by plants or seeds
either of which may be procured from
any reliable dealer. Better buy the
plants.
Set two rows the entire length of
the ditch. Pick up six or ten stalks,
lay them at the bottom of the ditch
near the side, so the tops will be above
the water, then two feet from there set
another bunch of plants on the other
side, anchoring the plants by placing
pile of earth on the roots.
II the plants must be homegrown
from seed, make a seed bed near the
spring in soft, wet ground, but do not
let the water run over it. Scatter the
seed and press into the mud with a
spade. Transplant the plants any
time when large enough to handle.
When the cress has grown and
spreads over the top of the ditch, have
it moved close to the top Of the water,
clearing away all clippings, so they
will not choke the stream. When 1t
grows up again fresh and crisp you
will be ready to market your product.
Place a plank across the ditch on
which to sit, gather the cress with the
left hand and cut with sharp knife,
having the stalks about three inches
long.
Bunch neatly, fastening the stalks
with a rubber band and cutting off
squarely Sprinkle lightly and keep
from the sun until sold.
Cress may be sold for shipment, for
consumption in the home market, or
to individual customers, the price yer
dozen or per bunch varying with iif-
ferent localities.
II the cress is crisp and tender The
matter of marketing will take care of
itself and the returns will be sufficient
and sure.

noticed that the dying man kept put
ting his hand under the bed whence
he carried to his mouth something
that he ate with appetite.

disappeared by next feed time, and
soon the horses were ready to eat
them with relish.
The hogs, too, will eat them but not
with any avidity if otherwise well fed.
For the hogs / prefer to cook them if
possible and mix them with shorts and
bran. Thus prepared they are eagerly
eaten.
We also stir them, cooked soft, in
the poultry mash of morning.
Last year our turnips were raised
along a fence row which was formerly
occupied by a row of old peach tire IS
and blackberries 1t was thoroughly
grubbed. planted to early potatoes and
then sown to turnips. 1t made a fine
crop.
We first pulled and pitted all the
good-sized ones, but left large mum
Der of small ones. AS the autumn was
mild, these little ones continued to
grow until many of them were as
large as the first crop.
In December we began pulling these
and feeding tops and all to chickens
and COW and horses and we are able
to continue this, with a few days
skipped, for over six weeks.
Before this the cutoff tops of those
first pitted furnished feed for a sur
prising time, remaining fresh and
green in piles on the ground.

BY following along the line Of sci

overlooked the value of home. grown

On the dairy farms a short system
Of crop rotation renews old fields,
puts all crops nearer to the manure

through an increase in their protein
content, and to their palatability and
ease of digestion.
