Has Clasped a Million Hands

Billy Sundays right hand has clasped and shaken
the hands of more people than has the right hand of any
other preacher of the present day. and perhaps of all
time. 1t is probable that Billy Sunday has shaken
hands with more people than any other living man,
matter in what line of activity.
1t is estimated that this hand has shaken the hands
OF than 100000 people in the twenty years
of his work Twenty of these years spent in
gestic work.
Fifteen out OF the twenty years were spent in
Quoting revivals in smaller towns and cities starting with
places of one two three thousand people and getting
up into the 10000 to 10000 class
During the last five years 'Bily'' has become an
evangestic star of the first magnitude Today he is the
pole star Of the evangelistc armament, with Boston,
New York and Chicago on bis waiting list and with calls
from foreign countries and the islands of the sea-
In his Philadelphia campaign last winter he made his
first entry into metropolitan city, and there Billy
Sundays right hand shook the hands of than AZ
trail hitter and the hands of thousands upon thousands
of others besides
In Paterson, n, j. which followed Philadelphia there
nearly 1900 trail hittcrs.

PoIs0Ns OF JOHNSON GRASS
All Fodder Plants Related to Sor-
ghum Must Be Used With Discre-
ton as Feed for Stock.

Ny @. z. GLOVER, Colorado Expert
ment Station.)
Johnson grass is closely related to
sorghum. Poisoning of cattle from
sorghum and kaf1r corn Is well known.
After chemical analysis of many
plants Brunnich gave the following
advice: "All fodder plants related to
sorghum must be used with discretion
in either the green or dry state and
should not be given in large amounts
to animals which have tasted for some
time" The poison in these plants is
hydrocyanic acid. Poisoning usually
occurs when the plants have made a
stunted growth from drought and are
eaten in large quantities, when the
animals are very hungry.
Animals poisoned in this way usu-
ally die within half an hour and some
times live only few minutes. Hydro
cyanic acid is the most deadly of poi
sons and in large doses kills almost
instantly. Animals usually die sud
denly from paralysis of respiration
and before medical measures can be
thought of or prepared for use.

Desert Lighthouse.

Prairie schooners, as the long cam
vas-covered wagons which cross the
deserts of Arizona are called, are guild
ed by the only desert lighthouse in the
world. The lighthouse marks the POI
sition of a well. the only place where
water can be found for 33 miles to the
eastward, and 80 miles in any other
direction.
Many wayfarer in this vast, water
less region has died of thirst prac-
tically within sight of the well, the
whereabouts of which he was ignorant.
1t was tragedy of this sort which
led to the erection OF the beacon. A
boy, perishing of thirst, had fallen in
the last stages of exhaustion. When
night came, he noticed the light from
the well keepers cabin burning dimly
in the distance. With last heroic
effort, the boy reached the cabin. This
gave the well keeper an idea, and now
every night light flashes out from
the only desert lighthouse in the
world.-American Boy.

CUTTING CORN FOR THE sILo
Wait Until Kernels Are Glazed or
Dented-lf Thought Too Dry
Water May Be Added.

There is considerable of the nu-
TRENT material lost in cutting silage
corn too early. Corn should not be
cut for this purpose until the kerr
nels are nearly all glazed or denied.
At this stage 1t will usually be noted
that the lower blades are brown and
dry. II it is thought that the corn
is little too mature, water can be
added.
Experiments have shown that corn
stover (dry stalks without the ears)
can be ensiled il an equal weight Of
water is added as the slower is being
cut. The silage should be well
tramped as the silo is being filed, es-
pecially so around the walls. This
is done to exclude as much air as pos
sible. For the average man, the steam
engine is easier to run than is gaso-
line engine, and not as many de-
lays will be made in filling the silo.
Where a number of men and teams
are employed, stop of even a few
minutes is costly. After the filing
of silo is completed, it is a good
idea to wet the top down thoroughly,
after which 1t should be tramped once
day for week or ten days. This
procedure will save several tons of
otherwise spoiled silage.

Extinct Ground sioth.

The remains of an extinct ground
sloth found In Patagonia and brought
to this country by Mr.. Roosevelt is
now in the American Museum of Natu-
raj History in New York. These re-
mains possess extraordinary interest,
because the surroundings in which
they were found seem to prove that
the animal was living only few CEN
turtles ago, and was not only contem-
porary with primitive man. but was
to some extent domesticated by him.
Previous to this discovery 1t had been
believed that all the great ground
sloths of South America, of which
many fossil remains have been found,
became extinct thousands of years
ago. The remains recently found were
discovered in dry cave, in company
with tools or weapons or stone and
bone. together with bundles of grass
spread as though intended for fodder.
There were other indications that the
animals had been stabbed or impris-
oned in the cave and fed by their cap
tors.

the meat is at present sold under the
name of Angora mutton, for prices
slightly higher than those paid for
cheap mutton. The meat of the An
CORA is preferable to that of the COM
mon goat. A venison-like flavor is
given to goat meat when the animals
browse upon various wild shrubs.
This gamy flavor, however, is not so
noticeable when the animals are fed
upon cultivated plants. Very little
use is made of the milk of goats in
this country, but analyses show it to
be of high nutritive value, and it can
be used in the manufacture of cheese.
The presence of Angoras or other
goats in bands OF sheep is said to be
source of protection to the sheep.
since goats will defend themselves
and the entire herd against attacks of
dogs or coyotes.
