Costly Animal Pests-

Australia is cursed with certain
pests, such as rabbits, wild dog, kan
CARGO and blowfiy. Large sums Of
money are spent in an endeavor to
lessen the number of rabbits. 1t is
estimated that in Victoria alone $780,
100000 were put to death in 1913. It
is generally admitted that ten rabbits
eat as much as one sheep, and many
graZiers have long since realized that
they cannot pToitably run sheep on
properties infested with rabbits Nat
ural enemies, such as foxes and wild
dogs, which are troublesome in Ger
tain districts, tend to keep the rabbits
in check, assisted by the wire netting
fences that landholders are erecting.
Kangaroos have caused considerable
damage in the northwest part OF West
ern Australia, where ranch owners are
said to have paid for thousands OF
scalps.-From Report of United States
Consul Magelssen at Melbourne.

CAMERA MEN IN DANGER

How asaken lie Made

The crown prince of Japan sent
consignment of sake" to the British
crews attacking Kiauchau- This bev-
erage, which should be drunk warm
to appreciate its full flavor, is of a
clear, light yellow color and tastes
like highly-seasoned sherry. 1t is
made of steamed rice, treated by a
process which converts the starch in
to sugar; fermentation sets in and
sake is produced. The character of
the water has a definite effect on the
liquor that results. Hence, for the
best quality of sake only the best wa
ter is employed An excise duty
equivalent to % cents per gallon is
levied on sake, the amount thus raised
in 1912 tOtaling s2S,OOO,OOO The name
is said to be derived from the town of
Osake, which, from time immemorial,
has been famous for sake brewing.

Of meats, and / convinced ate too rapidly, and
failed to masticate my food properly
The result that I found myself, few years
ago, afflicted with ailments Of the stomach ana
kidneys, which inteTfeTed seriously with my buzl-
ness.
"At last took the advice of friends and began
TO eat GTzpeNuts instead OF the heavy meats etc.
that had constituted my former diet
"I found that I vas At once benefited By the
change, that relieved from the heartburn
and indigestion that used 70 follow my meals that
the pains IN my back from my kidney affection had
ceased
Ny nerves which used to be unsteady, and my
BRAIN which was slow and lethaTgic from q heavy
diet Of meats and greasy foods, had, not IN
Tnent but gradually, and none the less surely been
restored to normal efficiency.
Nov every nerve Is steady and my brain and
thinking faculties quicker and more acute than

were used The whole thing was connected up so
that by means of antennae current from the wire
network was sent to the network of sprinkng pipes
which, of course furnished proper connection with
the ground
By the latter part of last July the system was IN
readiness and the currents were tested. At that
time pressure of so 900 volts obtained and the
frequency of the osciatory currents was estimated
to be about thirty thousand cycles second BIRDS
alghting the wires were stunned and thrown
the ground, but killed.
The ground planted to radishes lettuce, beets'
cabbages, cucumbers, turnips, muskmelons water
melons, tomatoes, parsnips, beans, peas, corn ana
tobacco. All were planted in rows running east ana
west so that one-half Of each row was electrlned
and the other half was not
As result it found that practically all the
plants in the electrified grew much more rap
idly than those out of it. In almost every case the
electrified vegetables were ripe two weeks Garner

UnweIeome Messenosrs Of Defest


One of the more genial practices Of
Ivan the Terrible was to stick q steel
lance through the foot of messenger
who brought him bad news All the
a D. T" men Of the old days had
a hard life. The wonder is now that
in those times anybody could be found
to tell the truth Of defeat Incred-
ible as If may seem, there was always
some impetuous ass who would &C
tually put spurs to his horse to get
to the king, or the car, or whatever
master 1t was, to tell him that his
dubs at the front had lost the battle
Then the king, or the car, or what
ever it was, would call the impetuous
one a slave or something worse, with
out smiling, and have his head cut on.
or boil him in OIL or pin his foot to
the ground as if he we're responsible
As has been intimated, Ivan the Ter
rible was particularly adept in these
scholarly ways Of Furnishing bad news
