nerve may be kept at 1t twice as long
as horses are fit for service. Mules
can be raised more cheaply than any
other stock, and, unlike horses, will
never founder themselves If by chance
they should have access to more feed
than Is good for them. They can be
put into the market much sooner than
horses, and If properly handled, when
two years old, will do as much work
and stand it better, than four-year-old
colts. Mules are less liable to con-
tract diseases than horses, and their
value is not decreased by blemishes as
Is that Of horses. Mules seldom run
away, but when they do they seem
to run more from sport than fright
and generally wind up safely. They
instinctively avoid holes, obstacles or
dangerous places. They can stand
heat, abuse or hardship better than
horses and can always be relied upon.
They are sensitive as well as sensible
animals, responding quickly to kind
treatment by docility and gentleness.
The great profit in mule raising lies
largely in their growth. Mules grow
so quickly that they are marketable
when three years old, while horse
colts cannot advantageously be sold
under five years. In this way the cost
of feeding and the trouble and risk Of
raising are decreased.
Buyers will always handle good
mules, as the demand for them is
steady. Where large numbers Of mules
are raised there are always plenty of
mule buyers in that section Of the
country. Buyers do not go where there
are no mules to sell. In time Of war
mules are always in great demand and
bring good prices owing to their pow
ers Of endurance.
Comparing cattle with mules. one
steer will eat vas much as two mules.
AS compared with swine, II the same
amount of feed that is fed to bunch
| Of hogs Is fed to mules 1t will not take
long to find which makes the most
money, aside from the fact that there
is no risk from cholera.

A Stars liuht Year.

A stars light year means the length
of time as measured by our years that
a particular stars light takes In reach
ing the earth. Light travels at the
rate Of about $4,000 miles a second,
yet oven at that speed some of the
fixed stars are so distant from the
earth that 1t takes their light several
years to reach us. The sun Is 93,OOO.-
600 miles from the earth and its light
reaches in less than nine minutes, but
the light from Sirius, sometimes called
the Dog star, is eight years In reaching
us. The Pole star or North star, has
a As light year. that is, its light Is 40
years in reaching the earth. If one OF
these inconceivably distant fixed stars
should be blotted out Of existence to-
night we should continue to see 1t for
years to come from its rays of light
already on their way to the earth.

FEW REAL BOOK STORES HERE
Count Tolstoy Struck by Lack Of op-
portunities for Obtaining Good
Literature In United States.

In my country as In the other parts
Of Europe, nobody need have any difii-
Guilty In finding book stores In small
towns or In large cities, Count llya
Tolstoy writes In the Century maya
zine. Here one can find cigar store.
drug store, all kinds Of shops where
luxuries can be purchased. but the
seeking Of bookshop Is often very
hard quest. Even In New York 1t Is
hard to find real book store, where
the attendants know their authors and
can help one select the books that one
needs on any subject. There are
some, but none too many. They can
be counted on the fingers Of ones
hands.
In smaller cities the task Of finding
books is hopeless one. There are
few stores where books are sold; but
what books? Novels mostly, the aver
age ephemeral romance; magazines
with too many ir-conceived articles
containing little upbuilding criticism
OF public life, much ill-dlgested infor-
nation, and newspapers which afford
little Of intellectual value, being most
ly mediums ofeadveptising. American
literature Is yet poor. The good mag
azines are few compared with Euro
pean reviews. The inheritance of man
kind, the universal literature, Is hard
ly known here. There are translations
In sets, richly bound, but cheaply pro-
duced, and too often done by hack
writer's, who do not even understand
what they translate. They are bad
TRANSACTIONS, as rule, but costly.
Poor people are not able to buy them.
Even in Russia, In the country
which Americans thinkDuncivilized, we
have TRANSACTIONS Of all the worlds
great writer's. These editions are APP
propriate to the means Of the people.
They can be bought for prices from
to cents. 1t Is the same in England.
The result here Is that the people read
only newspapers and magazines. In
Russia for the same price we can build
library of great books. The best
works Of Pushkin, Dickens, Shake
speare, Dante, Cervantes, Goethe, Toll
stoy, Heine, Victor Hugo and count
less others are at the disposal OF the
poorest.

ECONOMY WITH GAS STOVE
Woman Tells How She Saved Money
by Making Plans Ahead for Her
Baking Day.

A woman has written In to the Wom-
ans Home Companion about her gas
stove and she says:
"The idea Of telling other women
how to economize time and money In
the use of my gas, stove came to me
on hearing young housekeeper tell
about baking pudding, or just one
hing, in a gas oven as large as my
own, which struck me as amazingly ex-
travagant," writes a woman In the
Womans Home Companion.
"When planning to have a baking
day with the oven, l sit down the day
before and think out just what Is need
ed for several meals ahead which must
be cooked. For instance, ! place q
roast in pan just barely large
enough to hold it, thus economizing on
space as well. Then, If possible, l
cover the roast with a pan which can
be made to sit quite level, into which
I put several potatoes; or, If this ar
rangement isn't practicable, I put the
potatoes on the CRATE. Beside the
roast place small pudding dish con-
tanning q bread pudding, on small
asbestos mat beside the pudding dish
small pan of biscuits. A vegetable
inay sometimes be baked in a maple
with all these things as well.
"The following, all Of which / have
tested, will be found good combinations
for any baking day:
"a meat loaf, covered, in a bread
pan; escalloped tomatoes in pudding
dish pan of corn gems. Time about
an hour. Baked potatoes may be
crowded in almost always.
"Roast chicken in small cake tin ;
sweet potatoes peeled and sliced, sea-
soned AMI covered with milk In pud.
ding dish; macaroni and cheese In a
bread tin. Time about one and one
half hours, oven moderate"

HEALTHY CHICKS GROW FAST
Keep coops and Houses Clean and
Sanitary to Prevent Disease
Get Rid Of vermln.

Every effort must be made to keep
the coops and houses Of little chicks
clean and sanitary. Disease most fire.
quently starts In unclean, poorly venti-
lated houses. Clean the house at least
once week. Sand or litter Of some
kind scattered over the floor Of the
house will assist In keeping II clean.
When chicks are confined to limited
range, 1t Is well to spade up the ground
at frequent intervals, so as to provide
fresh ground for them to scratch In. II
lice are found, every effort must be
made to get rid Of them, by applying
a small portion Of a mixture of equal
parts of vaseline and lard to the top
Of the head and around the vent. Sick
ly chicks can't grow fast enough to
make money; healthy chicks can anu
will. Keep 'em well!
