CRAZED BY SNAKE-BITE
BOY INITIATES SERPANT

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, Aug 14-Five
days after being bitten by a rattle
snake near Milford, George Swenson.
10 years old, became violently insane
and was taken to the Hudson River
State Hospital, where he is under
observation. The boy suddenly threw
himself through the air, as a snake
would strike, crashing from his chair
to the floor, where he crawled on his
stomach, initiating the motions of a
snake and frothing at the mouth.
The boy, who had been in the army
medical corps and knew first aid
treatment made a rude torniQuct
when he was bitten and cut the flesh
from the wound with his penknife. He
had lowered between life and death,
but was thought to have been out Of
danger.

Agents Aid In Marketing.

Work of exceptional value to farm
ers has been done by various county
agents in connection with the organ
ization of livestock shipping associa-
tions and livestock auction sales.
The shipping associations have been
especially successful in Minnesota.
Michigan, Wisconsin, and Oregon, as
well as in several states in the South
The livestock auction sales have
been developed in California on an
Australian model which was introduce
ed by a county agent who had been
engaged in agricultural extension
work in New South Wales The
value of the stock marketed through
these auction sales in California
amounted to s1.79O,SSO and increas-
ed returns to the farmers by $780,
946 over prices which the stock
would have brought had the auction
sales not been held.

A woman's fondest hope is to stay
young. She often resorts to paints,
powders and cosmetics TO hide her
years. Some women pay large sums to
so.called "Beauty Doctors" in the be-
lief that money win buy youth. Others
wear girlish dresses, thinking they can
fool the world about their age. But
no one is deceived. The more you try
to hide your age, the more it shows.
There is but one thing that holds old
age back, and that is health. Sickness
and weakness bring old age early in
life. DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton is a building-up medicine for
women. It makes them healthy and
strong when they suffer from women 3
troubles. It keeps them looking young
by keeping them well. 1t is womaH s

Keeping Aluminium Bright.

Aluminium does not tarnish easily
in ordinary use, but one caution
should be observed in cleaning. Aka
Ii discolors aluminium; therefore it
should not be washed with strong
soap, nor should securing powders
containing free alkali be used on
it. Discoloration on aluminium may
be rubbed off with whiting or fine
steel wool (grade 00), or dissolved
by the acid in vinegar, or by dilute
oxalic acid These acids must be
thoroughly washed off the aluminium.
Some special preparations for clean
ing aluminium are on the market.

During hot weather keep drink

Not only does the shade keep the
water cooler, but it results in less
evaporation. Whether the drinking

may determine whether the poultry
have plenty of water to drink or
whether they go thirsty until attend

KENTUCKY CROP
REPORT FOR AUGUST

Considerable increases in the esti-
mates of production of corn, oats
and potatoes in Kentucky, compar-
ed to July 1, estimateI slight in
crease in the estimate of the wheat
crop in Kentucky, and a slight de-
crease in the States tobacco pros
poets. are the features of the mon
thly crop report issued today at Lou
isville and Frankfort by the U. S.
Bureau OF Crop Estimates in coop
Grafton with State Commissioner Of
Agriculture w. c. Hanna. Tobacco
shows a slight reduction from. July
estimates because of rather poor
condition in some sections, but as
there is a big acreage in the hurley
belt which partly makes up for the
reduced acreage in Western Ken
lucky and both sections can yet make
full normal yield if given favora-
BILE weather, the estimate of tobac-
co production is not greatly reduc-
ed. The United States total tobac-
co crop is considerably larger than
last year.
Probable corn productions in Ken
lucky is estimated at 96,941 900 bus
compared to a July l estimate of
S6.170,000 and a crop last year Of
S2,5O0,000 bus; wheat this month is
estimated at 6,S04,0OO bus. compar-
ed to a July 1 estimate of e,276, geo
bus. and a production of 10000
BUS. last year; potatoes 6,S55.000
bus. compared to prospects July
for 5,971,00O bus. and a crop last
year of 100000 bus; and tobacco
431,640,O0O lbs compared to a July
l estimate of. 437,5SO,OOO lbs. and
last years production of 456, 100000
lbs. This estimate on tobacco may
be increased or decreased later, how
ever, depending on favorable or IN
favorable weather.
Rye production in Kentucky this
season is estimated at 636,OOO bus.
compared to 744, goo bus. last year;
oats 11,615,OOO bus. compared to
$500, 900 bus. last year; barley 49,
600 bus. compared to 100000 bus.
last year, and sweet potatoes 1885,

last year. Fruit is a good crop in
Kentucky as a whole, apples being
estimated at 5,O63,OOO bushels and
peaches 100000 bushels. The con-
dition of other crops in Kentucky is

Marketing of Live Stock in Country
Districts.

The simplest method of disposing
of live stock prepared for market is
that in which the buyer visits the
producer, examines the stock, and
gives the producer an opportunity to
make a sale. In the more densely
populated farming sections local
butchers and stock buyers travel
through the country looking for
stock. These buyers, as a rule, pur-
chase stock at prices which are be-
low current market quotations, in
order TO allow for shrinkage and ex-
penses connected with delivery. They
may also endeavor to drive hard bar
gains with producers who are at a
disadvantage in any respect, as, for
instance, in knowledge of market
conditions or in the quality and guam
tity of the stock they may have to
sell. Underfed or lOw-grade stock
is almost sure to find a purchaser
who will raise objections to its quail
ity and fitness for market or slaugh-
ter, say live stock experts of the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture,
and will demand a maximum of ac-
commodation in the handling and de-
livery of the stock.
The buyer may or may not require
delivery to the local slaughter-house
or stock yards, much depending on
the demand of the market for the
class of stock sold Some feeders
sell rather regularly 10 the same buy
er, a plan which has certain adyan-
tages for both buyer and seller. II
the buyer feels quite certain of OBJ
tanning well-hnished animals which
he can use to advantage, " will be
likely to make liberal concessions in
regard 10 the disposition OF the stock
after sale; and the stockman finds
it more convenient, as well as agree
able, to sell TO a man with when he
is acquainted, in whom he has con-
hdence, and on whom he can cali
whenever he is ready to sell.

Should Use Beans And Peas i'm Place
of Meat.

Beans and peas contain more pro-
tein than other fresh vegetables. This
protein, however, is not the same as
the proteins of meat, milk, or egg,
food specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture say, and
should not be used to the exclusion
OF the others. When, however, beans
and peas are freely used, less milk,
meat and eggs are needed. The FOL
lowing foods or combinations Of
foods supply as much protein as one
fourth pound of beef of average COM
position;
Eight or nine ounces of shelleL
green peas or beans. A large dish
of green peas may be used in place
of meat for dinner occasionally. Many
persons like peas cooked with mint
or served with mint sauce.
