With Grout Success by the in Baiting His Lamb: by Band. First, take a. coffee pot holamg about one gallon. Take off the or- dinary spout, and cover the opening formed securely so that nothing can leak through. Then fasten three spouts on near the bottom of the pot about one and a half inches apart. These spouts‘ should be like tubes. larger at the bOttom and tapering to the top, which should be large enough to fit a nipple on nicely. The spouts reach from the bottom up even with the top of the pot and should extend out five inches from the top. Stay each spout to the pot with a thin brace, about three inches below the top of the pot. Take a wire about No. 20 and solder around the top of each spout to hold the nipple on. A string tied around the nipple below the rim will hold it seâ€" curely. Have the bail on the top of the pot to carry it by. Fill the pot with fresh cow’s milk, and let the lambs take all they will. Be sure to let the milk get out of his stomach before giving him any more. This will be from four to five hours. Then feed again all the lambs will eat. We have never lost a lamb raised in this way. We can raise them as easily and safely as we can a calf. The advantages of this manner of feeding are: 1. Air follows the milk right dOWn into the pot, and makes a. continual flow, and the lamb has only to make the motion and swallow. 7 2. You pour milk from the pail in- to the top of the pot. 3. The amount of milk holds the heat. 4. You can put the pot into a kettle of hot Water, and have the milk heated in three minutes. 5. You are feeding three lambs at one time. This is unique and the only success- ful method I have. found of raising lambs by hand. Fed in this Way we have had lambs make 54 pounds at seven weeks of age. This feeder had much to do in knocking out the royal winners of England when we met- them in the show ring. See sketch of feeder.â€"-S. H.

Gisborne, Ottavar. A 'ruitful topic of discussion at the On- tnrio Poultry Association meeting was the desirability of showing more dressed fowls and eggs at poultry ex- hibitions which found strong advo- cates on the ground that the show of dressed poultry afforded a more satis- factory and reliable means of judg- ing of the respective table qualities of different breeds than when the disâ€" play was confined to live specimens. Many suggestions made are worthy the attention of progressive poultry raisers. The developed hog is so artificial an animal that it cannot safely be left to what some swine-growers call “natural conditions," that is, condi- 'tions similar to those in which the wild or neglected hog lives and thrives. Ten months ought to be a good average length of time to take the pig from birth to the market. If much more time is spent in bringing the pig to market size and quality, there will be small profit when the carcass is sold. The savage, fleet, vicious, nervous, pugnacious “razorback” cannot be confined and fed and fattened as the domesticated hog can be. The wild brute, would promptly die if subject- ed tomthe care and feed which make the tame hog. fat and healthy. In northern regions the pig can be made to put on lean meat by pas- Luring, with its implied exercise, and by a feed of skimmilk, wheat bran, soy beans and cowpeas. This food is far cheaper than the rations genâ€" erally used in northern localities.â€" Journal of Agriculture. UNIQUE CONTRIVANCE. Australian Sllvupmvu. The faintâ€"hearted American sheep- men who go out of the business on account of the ravages of dogs and coyotes and internal parasites, says The Sheep Breeder should take les- sons in steadiness of purpOse and work from Australian shepherds, who have braved the rabbit, dingoh wild dog and a score of other animal pests and stood out against desolat- ing bush and prairie fires, floods, fluke, stomach worms, blasting heat and half a decade of drought that have swept away half their flocks. In spite of all these drawbacks they are still hopeful and courageous and amazingly philosophical even in the midst of desperation. ’ FOR RAISING LAMBS BY HAND. ".eport of Poultry Associations.

In breeding bees the two main noints desired are usefulness and color. Any queen cell after being sealed over can be hatched with artificial limit. In order to obtain nice comb honey the colony must be very strong in numbers. A weak colony will never build nice comb honey no matter how liberal the honey flow. If the colony is weak and the brood chambers not at all full. it is of no use to place the section boxes on. If a good flight cannot be had reason- ably soon after dysentery sets in. the bees are pretty sure to be lost. Extracted honey is much easier cared for than comb honey. If properly cared for. it will keep good for years. If one does not practice clipping the queen bees, he is almost certain to be bothered with swarms clustering in difli- cult and inaccessible places or going off. If by any means a colony is deprived of their queen. the bees will set to work and raise another if only they have any worker larvae in the hive with which to do it. Transferring can be done with more ease and with better results in the spring. as at that time the occupants of the hive are fewest in number and the combs are lightestâ€"St. Louis Republic.

He employed a buyer in one or his departments at a yearly sala- ry and contracted with him for five years. This buyer was one of the best in the business. He worked along for about a ‘ - . ,,_ .1 LL-‘ UUSUJCDn. 1.1.» "v. _ .._-_ year, and then something happened that made the merchant dissatisfied. 0: course the buyer was under a contract, and the merchant could not get rid of him with- out violating it. What did he do? Why, he sent for this man, and he said to him: “ ‘Mr. â€", you have done splendid work for us, and we are more than satisfied. We feel that you deserve some reward, and we have determined to increase your salary $1,000 a year.’ “Well, the buyer said he was very grateful and all that and went out and put in some of his best licks. He got the increased salary for two weeks and sign- ed a receipt for it. Then the merchant sent for him and said: A--.‘ Aâ€" 0‘ (Mr. _' 1 timate of you. let you go- longer.’ wugcx. “ ‘Well, I don’t want to stay where I’m not wanted,’ said the buyer, ‘but I have a contract, you know.’ ‘ ‘ ' I ,L tWL-‘ u L‘UuLLuyL, .yvu ....v .. “ ‘Contract?’ said the merchant. ‘What contract? Oh, no, you have no contract. You consented to the abrogation of the contract two weeks ago.’ " " AL- Lâ€"_ Efl’orts of Russia to Keep Leprosy Beyond the Siberian Border. The east is never free from leprosy. and Russia is always dreading that the sly White pest may cross her borders. Occa- sionally, though not often, it creeps into the homes of the aristocracy. A certain grand ball was given at St. Petersburg during the spring of 1898. Among the guests was a young and beautiful unmar- ried countess. A gentleman asked one of her relatives to introduce him. received an assent and danced with the lady sev- eral times. Later. as they stood in an exposed portion of the ballroom. the gen- tleman said: “This draft is injurious. You should be careful of yourself, for I see there is a slight eruption on one of your shoulders. Oh. it isn’t marked enough to spoil your beauty. But I. you know. am a physi- cian. Have you, by the way. any other little spots like this elsewhere on your lovely skin ‘2” ‘ Yes..""â€"1e1)lied the lady; “I tune a few. And l “1511 doctm, that you could give me some medicine for them.” “It would afford me great happiness to do so." was the gallant reply: That night the countess did not return to her home. All search fox her resulted vainly. It was not until many weeks afterward that her agonized parents re. ceived a letter which told them that their daughter was in the X. leper asylum and that all attempts to see her must prove futile. The parents begged piteously to have her immured at her own home in a tower which she alone would occupy. Any- thing was preferable for them to the liv- ing death which they felt now to be her doom. But no entreaties availed. The gentleman who had danced with the young countess at the ball had been a disguised police agent. and she will end her days in the terrible lazar house whith- er he had her conveyed among others ac- cursed like herself.â€"Collier’s Weekly.

Mansfield before he was known to fame was cast for a part in “Baron Chevrial." a part so small that other actors refused to play it. The night of the first performance Mansfield made the hit of the production owing to the realistic manner in which he simulat- ed death from paralysis.
