A horrible story comes from the !

“I will give you the proof of a

The tree he cut down was a quarter

“As I clip all my queens whenever
a swarm issues while I am in the

On a street corner in the northwest-
ern section of ihe city last Saturday
forenoon quite a large crowd had
collected. It had formed a rins. or,
rather, a square, about some object
in the center, two sides having con-
gregated on each side of the curb,
while the trthers made a rather thin
line on the other side of the square.

sorts of suggestions were hurled at

danger in it. The mule was wild-
eyed and vicious, and used both fore-
legs as a battery to keep folks away
from him, until at last the driver sat

Expense of Growing Wheat.
The expense of growing an acre ol
wheat varies greatly in different locaii
ties, the price ranging from $7.50 to
$13 throughout the arid region. Or
largo areas such as farmers usually
seed, the cost need not exceed $7.75
an acre in any irrigated locality. With
this reduction in the expense, the
profits would be largely increased, pro
viding equally good yields were secur-
ed. The profit depends primarily or
the cost of production, hut it varies
principally with the yield and the
market price realised. While it varies
widely the average is probably
closo to ten dollars an acre which is
enough to pay at least forty per cent
on the market price of lands or ove*
ten per cent on a valuation of $10(.
an acre. While wheat growing on the
non irrigated acres such as we see ir
the Divide country is not annually sc
great as in the irrigated districts the
profits are often quite as good when a
favorable season comes around as was
the case this year but the figures we
give apply particularly to irrigated
lands. Many of our irrigated farms
have netted fully $20 an acre for a
period of years when alternated with
alfalfa and spuds as rotation crops.
Making Ready for Alfalfa.
Alfalfa fields and lauds intended foi
other crops coul<j be irrigated and fill
ed with moisture this winter with
profit. The water that runs by is
doing the farmers no good. Turn it
on the land, where it will be stored ui
against next summer's need. It is a
great mistake to turn the water ofl
from the canals as soon as the grow
ing season is over, as is generally

charged for violation of an executive
order prohibiting government em-
ployes from attempting to influence
legislation, announces that he will
maintain an office at South Omaha
and do more or less traveling in tho
but there was every indication of
much interest in the situation.
"Drunken women fighting," said one
of two young women who wero pass-
ing near by. “It’s most disgraceful,
and those people placidly looking on.
If they wero men they'd stop It." she
said to her companion. “It’s degrad-
ing.”
An old gentleman in the same lo-
cality was explaining to another one
that a man had been stricken with
an epileptic fit. -'Poor fellow,” he
said; "and no one knows what to do
for him.”
It was evident that the gathering
was an inactive one. and the reporter
whose duty it is to Investigate every-
thing hastened to the scene and
found out that a stout, well-propor-
tioned mule had slipped on the pave-
ment and was apparently well satis-
fied with his recumbent situation. The
fact was that he resented every well-
meant attempt to hoist him from his
contact with mother earth, while his
disgusted driver, a colored boy about
20 years old, was actually sobbing
thought.
Just then an old colored man, wear-
ing an old-fashioned blue army over-
coat and a red worsted comforter
about liis neck, stepped into the open
space, walked bravely up to the now
quiet quadruped and took hold of both
of his ears. He seemed to whisper
to the beast, but whatever he did act-
ed like magic. The mule got upon
his feet, permitted himself to be
hitched again to his cart, and the
crowd went away.
"You seem to know how to deal
with mules,” said the reporter to the
old fellow. ” ’Deed I does, suh," was
the reply. I knows all about mules
md they does me. 'Fore Gawd, boss,
I wasn't brought up in old Missouri
for nothing. Yass'r, muels and me is

Tlie crowd had melted away, and

er did so. And thus the chapter end-

His attempt to secure the passage of

the charge of insubordination, resulted
in his dismissal.
One of the most unique and inter-
esting features of the Japanese plan
of campaign is the importance of the
tasks assigned to the doctors. Maj.
Louis Livingstone Seamon of the Unit-
ed States army says in his recently
I published book: "The medical officer
is omnipresent. You will find him in
j countless places where in an Ameri-
can or British army he has no place.
He is as much at the front as in the
rear. He is with the screen of the
scouts with his microscope and chemi-
j cals, testing and labeling wells so that
; the army to follow- shall drink no con-
taminated water. When the scouts
; reach a town he immediately instl-
I tutes a thorough examination of its
sanitary condition and if contagion or
infection is found he quarantines and
places a guard around the dangerous
district. Notices are posted so that
the approaching column is warned
and no soldiers are billeted where
danger exists. Microscopic blood tests
are made in all fever cases and bac-
teriological experts, fully equipped,
form part of the staff of every di-
visional headquarters.
“The medical officer also accompa-
nies foraging parties and. with the
commissariat officers, samples the va-
rious foods, fruits and vegetables sold
by the natives along the line of march,
long before the arrival of the army. If
the food is tainted or the fruit is over-
ripe or the water requires boiling,
notice is posted to that effect, and
such is the respect and discipline of
every soldier, from the commanding
officer to the file in the ranks, that
obedience to its orders is absolute.
The medical officer is also found in
camp lecturing the man on sanitation
and the hundred and one details of
p* rsonai hygiene—how to cook and
to eat and when not to drink or to
bathe—even to the paring and cleans-
ing of the finger nails to prevent dan-
ger from bacteria.
"Long before the outbreak of hos-
tilities he was with the advance
agents of the army, testing provisions
that were being collected for the
troops that were to follow. As a con-
sequence of these precautions he is
not found treating thousands of cases
of intestinal diseases and other con-
tagion anil fevers that follow imi^iper
subsistence and neglected sanitation
—diseases that have brought many
campaigns to disastrous termina-
tions.”

had known it all the time, but had not
indicated it by even the quiver of an

upon her face; she had simply been
too polite to interrupt me by word or

“Though the days of the long treks
over trackless wastes of South Africa
are past, life in this country still has
little diversities peculiar to itself,”
writes a correspondent. “For in-
stance. a farmer named Long was re-
cently troubled by a leopard that had
been destroying his cattle. The na-
tives surrounded it one day in the
long grass and sent for the white man
to kill it. While searching for the
brute in the tangle of vegetation Mr.
Long came across him sooner than
he expected and the leopard got the
jump on him. There was a fierce
struggle and the white man was a good
deal torn up. One of his negroes got
in a lucky shot and killed the leopard
; just before the latter got at the man's
throat.
"Odd things happen in the mines,
too, once in a while. A miner named
Wonacott recently passed through a
most exciting experience at Dutoit-
span. He had charged four boreholes
with dynamite in the usual way and
then endeavored to signal to the en-
j gine-driver, but failed to establish
communication. He concluded, how-
ever, that everything was all right,
and he lit the charges, expecting tc
be hauled up in the bucket. His sec
ond signal not being answered, he be
gan to climb the rope in a hurry tc
get away from the dynamite. He was
too slow and the concussion of the
discharge knocked him off. He fel
into the bucket, where he remained
until all the charges had exploded. He
v.as only slightly hurt.
"And there was a curious incident
near Harding recently. A native was
riding along a pathway at sunrise
when he saw the head and arms of a
man sticking out of the ground, the
arms waving wildly in signal of dis
tress. The fellow was imprisoned in
an ant-bear hole and wah half dead

Cracked Corn.
Corn is cracked simply for conveni-
ence of feeding to chicks. It is best
to allow the gizzard to reduce it.
Whole corn contains about eleven per
cent of protein, five per cent ot fat,
seventy per cent of starch, two per
cent of crude fiber and one and one-
half per cent of mineral matter. The
rest is water. There is no difference
In whole or cracked corn, the loss of
fine material being some of the starch,
and the flinty matter of the outer skin,
which is siliclous and of no value.
Cracking the corn only reduces it In
size, otherwise the composition of the
corn remains unchanged, though tho
