SECURES CHEVROLET AGENCY.

The Eimers Hardware & 1mple-
ment Co. has purchased a carload of
Chevrolet automobiles. The Chevrolet
is well equipped car, having cleo
trio starter, electric lights, selective
type sliding gear-three speeds for
ward and reverse, mohair top com
pound steering gear, the simplest and
safest ever invented. This is the
car that received so much notoriety at
San Francisco for its demonstration
of power exhibited in pulling a 90
per cent grade, when the car that
was to demonstrate its pulling power
failed. This car sells for $3.50 at
Grangeville. Two of this shipment
have already been sold and it is antic-
ipated that the firm will not have any
trouble in disposing Of these cars as
soon as other prospective purchasers
get a demonstration of its ability.
The Eimers Hardware feels that with
the addition of the Chevrolet to their
| line of autos, as they are now han
ding the Dodge, that they have car
for every demand The Dodge sells
for $3.50.
Demonstrations of these cars can
be had at any time.

parts of bran, one part each or low
grade wheat -four and of cornmeal, 10
per cent of green feed and 8 per cent
of beef scrap, with about per cent OF
sand or grit in all of the rations. The
proportion of beef scrap is gradually
increased until 1t reaches 10 per cent
by the end of the third week. About
two weeks before killing the ducks
should be put on q fattening ration
This consists of three parts by weight
of cornmeal. two parts Of low grade
-four or middlings. one part OF bran,
one-half part of beef scrap. with 3 per
cent grit and 10 per cent green feed.
The ration for laying ducks should
be composed Of one pound or corn
meal, one pound of low grade flour or
middlings. one pound of bran, 15 per
cent of beef scrap, Is per cent Of vege-
tables or green feed and some grit, the
mash being few twice daily, In the
morning and at night. When ducks
are laying heavily quart of mixed
corn and wheat should be divided
among thirty of them In the middle or
the day. Thirty laying ducks. it Is es-
timated, will eat about ten quarts OF
moist mash at each meal Drinking
water should be near the feed so that
the ducks can eat and drink at about
the same time.
Since Picking ducks are used largely
for Matching and the profit from them
comes In producing green ducklings
birds of this breed are fed a mainte-
nance ration after they stop laying In
bhe summer until about Dec. l, when
the laying ration is resumed Indian
Runner ducks, being intended to pro
duce eggs for the market, are fed lay
ing rations throughout the year. The
cost of feeding a breeding Peking duck
has been estimated by several grower
at about 81 year.
Since neither the Peking nor the In
dian Runner duck is good sitter un
der ordinary farm conditions 1t Is de
sirable to hatch and raise the duck
lings with hens. They may also b.
raised artihcially In incubators ant
, breeders, and as matter OF fact duck
, are much easier to brood ARTIFICIAL,
than chickens. The same brooders an
I brooding systems give satisfactory re
suits for both, but ducks do not requir

MOST ANCIENT TREATY.
Carved In Stone on the Walls OF TWO
Egyptian Temples.

On the walls of two of Egypt's great
est temples, that OF Karnak and the
Ramesseum at Thebes, carved In the
everlasting stone of the dry land OF
the Nile, says the Christian Herald, Is
the Oldest international treaty known
to man. Rameses the Great, one or
the signers, is the best known man or
remote antiquity. Khetasar (the czar
of the Kheta or Hittites), the other par
ty to the treaty, is unknown except to
q few, and his nation is little known
even to the scholars.
The Hittites were a mighty race.
whose empire. equal in rank with the
mighty empire of Egypt and Babylo-
MIA, once extended over 100000 square
miles of territory I'm Asia Minor and
Syria. A few years ago practically
nothing was known of the life and CIV
ilization OF these mysterious people.
They are mentioned In the Bible and
In the Egyptian and Assyrian records.
but until very recently their own story
had never been read by modern man.
Today, thanks to the excavations that
were carried on at the capital city ct
| Carchemish. much has been learned
about this great group of tribes, and
orderly evidence about them is now
available for the first time In 2!OOt
years.

CLOUD FORMATIONS.
Why the Masses Of Moisture Are Able
to Float In the Air.

to Float In the Air.
Clouds consist Of particles Of con-
densed water vapor and in some cases
Of extremely fine spicules Of ice. which
Is also formed from water vapor. Wa
ter vapor which arises by evaporation
from the surface of seas, lakes, ETC..
Is lighter than dry air ut the same
temperature and pressure. Ii Is also
invisible.
1t disseminates itself through the
atmosphere and ascends to great
heights. There. owing to the fall OF
temperatures and to other causes. 1t
begins to condense into particles which
are slightly heavier than air and which
become visible cloudsA
Owing to the influence of winds and
OF rising currents as we'll as to the
fact that the condensed particles are
nearly as light as air the clouds remain
| fioating like fine suspended matter In
water, until further condensation Gre
ates particles of sufficient size to form
raindrops, whose relative great weight
brings them rapidly to the ground.
That clouds do slowly descend even
when not condensed into rain may be
observed when they are seen to dis
solve and disappear without apparent
cause This is caused by the clouds
descent to level where rise OF tenn
perature causes the condensed water
vapor to revolatilize, thus becoming

LEGEND OF THE DONKEY.
Showing Why the Arabs Beat the
Brute With impunlty.

In his article OH his journey to Baby
lon, In Harrer's, William Warfield tells
a legend prevailing among the natives
by which they justify beating OF don
keys, but not horses.
I'VE stopped to change our mules. In
the roadway before the khan sat a
group of Arabs. A servant supplied
them with little cups OF tea from a
rude samovar. We saluted them, and,
taking our places in the circle. we
were served In turn. Some one In the
dark doorway was humping away on
a drum. A boy came out of the khan
beating a poor lame donkey with fly
infested sores. I turned to one Of my
neighbors:
els 1t not cruel for that boy to beat
a lame donkey in that wayr
"'Effendi It Is the will of Godr
"'But you do not allow horses OF
camels to be beaten thus
"'Effendi. the donkey Is not like
the horse. nor yet is he like the camel
The reason IL this Upon a certain day
the donkeys went before Allah ant
complained that they were grievousl,
beaten by men. so that life was I
greater burden than they could bear
Then said Allah: II cannot make mel
cease from beating you 1t Is no sin
neither does 1t cause them any grea
loss. But ! will help you. | will Civ
you so thick hide that howeve
much you are beaten, you shall no
suffer-
$50 said my informant, 1T is Of n
consequence II men beat donkey. s
thick a skin did Allah give him tina
after he dies men use it in the maxim
of drums. and the donkey continue
to be beaten after death
