Colossal Farms in Argentina.

Our American farms seem diminu-
tive compared with those of Argen-
tina. There the farm of two hundred
thousand acres is common. Many are
twice that size, and there is record
of at least one three times as large.
1t is not unusual for whole day to
be consumed on the train in crossing
the land of single proprietor.
The old cowpuncher days Of our
West are being repeated here. Look
ing from the window of the train one
may often count twenty thousand cat
tie within an hour. Also he will see
thousands of sheep and scores of os-
triches. But one thing he will not
see-barns. In land where it is not
too cold for. animals to be out all the
year round, and where there is no
need to cut and store hay because hay
grows Il months in the year, barns
are unnecessary.
At every station one will see cor
rails and pens for convenience in load
ing the cattle cars. Every day trains
from all parts of the republic arrive
at the great packing plants near
BuenOs Aires with their burden of
restless animals.-Willard Price in
the Christian Herald.

MAN OF DAUNTLESS SPIRIT
Captain Arthur Phillip, First Cover.
nor of New South Wales, Made
Light of Difficulties.

History teens with records or great
enterprises carried through with cour-
age and strong purpose. The early
settlement of Australia provides
good example of this. Capt. Arthur
Phillip, the first governor of New
South Wales, unobtrusively set sail
from the Isle of Wight, on a May
morning in. 1887. with IL ships, mostly
ill-equipped, and so started, inaus-
piciously, on his $4,000 miles voyage
to the Antipodes
1t was not until eight months later.
that is on January 26, 17SS, that the
expedition landed at Sydney cove, sit
uated inside the world famous Sydney
Harbor The anniversary of this his
toric landing is punctiliously observed
throughout the commonwealth as
public holiday.
Captain Phillip. with every conceiv-
able difficulty to face. including I'M
suitable settlers, great shortage of food
and every kind of equipment, yet
weathered the storm. His every re-
pOlt uUllc was COuSIlCu a ShSSAS
spirit. Most of tho seed wheat and
other grain had unfortunately become
spoiled on the voyage out ands things
We're looking bad. Anticipations OF
help were conferred on the impending
arrival of the relief ship which was
due early in 1870, but the vessel struck
an iceberg near the cape, and the car
go had to go overheard to save the
ship, which was then compelled to re-.
turn to port. This even necessitated
the strict rationing of the settlers. In
writing home, the governor referred
to his desperate situation as ''these
little difficulties (which we have en-
cOuntered."
Such was the man who initiated the
settlement of Australia. His attitude
toward the natives demonstrated at
once his humanity and craftsmanship,
for he showed them great kindness
and did his best to establish friendly
relations between them and his set
tiers. Ultimately the settlement -four
ished and formed the nucleus of the
commonwealth as it is known today,
and thus well has Governor Phillip
earned the distinction of being in
cluded in the roll of honor of the

from their perches by the approaching
figure. flew down the trail in front.
Cranston pressed back the hammer of
his rifle. The click sounded loud in
the silence. He had grown tense and
still. and the leaves no longer rustled.
His eyes were intent on little
clearing, possibly one hundred yards
ND the trail. The trail itself went
straight through it. And in an in
slant more. Hildreth pushed through
the buckbrush and stood revealed in
the moonlight.
If there is one quality that means
success in the mountains it is con-
slant. unceasing self-control. Gran
ston thought that he had it. But per-
hans he had waited too long for Hill
dreth to come; and the strain had told
on him. He had sworn TO take no
false steps; that every motion he
made should be cool and sure. He
didn't want to attract Hildreth's at
tention by any sudden movement. All
must be cautious and stealthy. But
i'm spite of all these good resolutions,
Cranston's gun simply leaped to his
shoulder in one convulsive motion at
the first glimpse of his enemy as he
emerged into the moonlight.
The end of the barrel struck a
branch OF the shrubbery as it went
up. 1t was only soft sound; but in
the utter silence it travelled far. The
gun barrel caught the moonlight as it
leaped. and HiIdreth saw its CLINT IN
the darkness.
He was looking for trouble. He had
dreaded this long walk TO the settle
ments more than any experience of
his life. He didn't know why the let
fer he had written, asking for an
armed escort down to the courts, had
not brought results But it was
wholly possible that Cranston would
have answered this question For him.

strange pillars of ebony. Bert Gran
ston knelt in brush covert. his rifle
loaded and ready in his lean, DARK
hands.
No wolf that ran the ridges, Lo
cougar that waited on the deer trails
knew a wilder passion, a more terrible
blood-lust than he. 1t showed In his
eyes, narrow and never resting from
their watch of the trail it was in his
posture: and it revealed itself unmis-
takably in the curl of his lips. Some
thing like hot steam was in his brain,
blurrng his sight and heating his
blood.
The pine needles hung wholly mo-
tionless above his head; but vet the
dead leaves on which he knelt crinkled
and rusted under him. Only the keen
est ear could have heard the sound !;
and possibly in his madness, Cranston
himself was not aware of it. And one
would have wondered a long time as
to what caused it. 1T was simply that
he was shivering all over with hate
and fury.
A twig cracked, far on the ridge
above him. He leaned forward, peer
ing, and the moonlight showed his
face in unsparing detail. 1t revealed
the deep lines. the terrible, drawn
lips, the ugly hair long over the DARK
ears. His strong hands frightened
upon the breech of the rifle. Els wiry
forIra grew tense
OF course it wouldn't do to let his
prey come too close. Landy Hildreth
was a good shot too, young as Gran
ston. and Of equal strength; and no
sporting chance could be taken in this
hunting. Cranston had no intention
of giving his enemv even the slightest
chance to defend himself If Hildreth
got down into the valley, his testi-
mony would make short work of the
arson ring. He had the goods; he had
been a member of the disreputable
crowd himself.
The mans steps were quite distinct
by now. Cranston heard him fighting
his way through the brush thickets,
and once a flock of grouse, frightened

Alarm Clock as Egg Urge.

Councilman Lester LutZ is some
what of q chicken fancler, writes a
Berwick (Pa.) correspondent OF the
New York Tribune. Recently he tried
the experiment of placing in his
chicken pen electric lights that would
switch on at four o'clock in the
morning. He believed it would re-
suit in getting more eggs from the
hens. That stunt didn't work, because
the chickens failed to be aroused, even
by the light in the pen, but Lutz
thought further than that.
He got an alarm clock and put that
in the pen, so it would ring every
morning at four o'clock, the same time
the lights were switched on.
Formerly was getting only six
eggs day from pen of 20 Leg
horns," said Lutz. 'sNow am get
ting II, 13 and Ia eggs day from
