OPENS WITH BABCOCK TEST.
Rural Teacher Gives His Pupils Prac-
teal Training.

There's a rural school teacher at
Logan, Ia, who has done away with
the usual morning opening exercise in
his school. Instead he has replaced
it with a demOnstra ton of the work
ing of the Babeoek milk tester. MIX
supplied by the patrons of the dis
trict is used. All of the pupils watch
the proceedings and the older boys
of the school do the work under the
direction Of the teacher.
This same teacher has tested seed
oats and seed corn for the farmers of
the neighborhood in the same way.
This is but one bit more of evil
tence that agriculture in the hands
of live teacher will serve not only
the purpose of instruction, but will
lead directly to practical value for
the neighborhood," says Prof. G. NJ.
Wilson of the department of agri-
cultural education, in commenting
upon it. 1T is, too, a practical illus
tration of the kind of work that can
be successfully carried out in the
rural schools"

STEAL $50 POUNDS OF BUTTER
Creamery at Huxley Robbed of $3.50
Worth of Product.

Perry, June IA nervy piece of
| thievery was pulled off at Huxley a
few nights ago, when $50 pounds of
choice butter was stolen from the
Farmers Creamery. The butter was
worth 80 cents a pound, or $3.50 all
told. The loss was discovered the
following day and all of the neigh
boring towns notified.
The robbery was one of a long
series which has been pulled off at
Huxley and is thought to be the work
of an organized gang. Entrance was
gained by using crowbar to force
the lock on one of the doors. The
officers of the company have met and
decided to offer a reward of $50 for
the arrest and conviction of the par
ties. Huxley has long been infested
with a gang of burglars about every
so often. 1t is supposed they come
up from Des Moines and make their
raids. The village is but short
way from Des Moines and it is easy
for the "yeggs" to drive up in the
evening, make their haul, drive back
into the city and be safely under

The remains of Ellen Dahlen ant
his sister who lost their lives ip The
flood, as related in our preceding is
sue were placed at rest in the Llu.h
eraG cemetery here last Monday
the two being laid side by side in tbs
same grave.
A funeral at best is rery sad, bu
double funeral is doubly sad, and
when death comes in such a tragic
manner and leaves such deplorable
consequences it is even more SAT-. 1t
was one of the largest funerals ever
held in Calmar.
An aged mother, dependent on
them, besides Ellend's wife and four
little children survive, also two
brothers from South Dakota, both of
whom were present at the funeral.
The sympathy of the entire COM

Allamakee County Loses Over Thirty
Bridges.


Never before did one storm sweep
away as many county bridges in ALA
makee and cause as much damage to
abutments and approaches as did the
storm of Thursday evening last.
On Yellow river eleven bridges
were swept off their foundations, five
in the vicinity of Myron and six be-
low Forest Mills, the remaining one
at the mouth of the river being left
intact. OF the six left some were
rendered impossible. Two new ones
above Myron are all right. Three
are gone in Dart Hollow.
Six were taken out on Paint Creek.
two below Waterville and four atcve.
Nine on Village Creek are gone,
only three being left, one north of
Waukon, the one at brakes and the
other at the mouth at Columbus.
Four scattering ones in the north
part Of the county were swept away.
All of the big Iowa river bridges es-
capped, though the approaches are
damaged.
County Engineer Orr states that
practically all of the lost bridges
were of an old type and were soon
to be replaced. Some of them can
be restored for temporary use. Their
actual value he places at about $780,
600, though to replace them will cos:
not less than 75,000.-Waukor

LOCATING IceberQs,

The captain Of an ocean steamer in
most cases finds out when his vessel
is approaching an iceberg from the
men down in the engine room. That
sounds queer, but 1t is n fact never
theless II appears that when a
steamship enters water considerably
colder than that through which it has
been going its propeller runs faster
Such water usually surrounds the vici-
mage Of icebergs for many miles
When the propeller's action therefore
is accelerated without the steam pow
er being increased word is passed up
to the officer on the bridge that ice
bergs may be expected, and a close
lookout for them is established. There
are natural reasons for the propeller
acting In this way, and sea captains
will assert the same thing.

INITIATION AS A DEFENSE.
Easy For the Puffer Fish to Bak Its
Natural Enemies.

The puffer fish affords a novel exam
pie of the way nature sometimes works
TO protect her creatures. The many
different species inhabit ali tropical and
other warm seas and certain large riv
ers. Few of them reach a length Of
more than two feet.
The peculiar characteristic common
TO all Of them is their ability to initiate
themselves with air or water until they
become almost spherical in shape. The
air or water that fills the abdomen or
the esophageal sac is retained by a
valve in the throat and can be dis
charged almost instantly.
A few good sized soup were placed in
one of the exhibition tanks OF the New
York Geological society with a dozen
buffers about two inches long. The
hungry soup at once attacked the puff.
ers. but in an instant every puffer in
fated itself so completely with water
that ii became almost globular. All the
soup could 90 was to knock them about
like toy balloons, too big to be swal-
lowed. too smooth to afford any hold
TO the jaws.
Puffers that become frightened near
the surface Of the sea and are inflated
with air sometimes drift ashore, where
they roll along the sands until they die
and are dried by the sun and wind.
The Japanese make lanterns of their
dried inflated bodies, for the stretched
skin is as TRANSPARENT as oiled paper
