Tennessee is the latest f «taie to feel this benevolent impulse, I mod the Interstate club in projecting a scheme for the preservation of the beautiful "Suck" country, in the I1 midst of tbd mountains west of Chat- - tanooga, in one of the most pictur- I -eeque regions in that country. The Interstate club is an organiza- ; tion whose purposes are to promote : good fellowship among the captains of I industry and the statesmen of the : nation, as it is their decision in the f matter which is bringing matters to a successful issue. ; Lookout Mountain, Waldeu's Ridge, •v Raccoon Mountain, Eagle's Nest and the "Suck" (that portion of the "River ^4;; of the Big Bend" through which tra- dltion says ti»e water sucks Into sub- terranean channels) are household words in Tennessee. Amid these scenes the Cherokee and Choctaw In- once roved in quest of game or V"* - --tfit secure retreat from the on- I* slanghts of the first settlers at Ross' Landing, mow known as Chatta- »V' nooga. $1 ' Immediately on the right after en- * tering the "Suck" stands Signal Point, w . where the club is to erect a fine house. 'f • This point was used by the federal sol- fsWi diers in conveying signals concerning ' * the operations of the confederate sol- - * i. diers, who were stationed in the city !|L ' and on the south side, on Missionary Ifr1 1 Ridge, and back into Georgia. Further down the river is the site of the big lock and dam power plant ||V , , which is now being constructed by W. P" J. OUver ft Co., and which will fur- ; ? ,* iM« the city with 50,000 horsepower b'»," for lighting and other purposes. From f;: ' this point to Signal Point the Inter- state club will have its hunting pre- P" / serve on the ridge. The club will utilize the river, which " 4 will practically be a lake, "from the gigantic dam, 50 feet high, to the very -V-.. doors of the city for autoboating and & yadttbg purposes. At the foot of the mountain just below Signal Point the club will erect boathouses. Con­ necting with the club house at Sig­ nal Point and the city an electric railway will be built up the ridge which will carry passengers from the city to the top of the ridge in 30 minutes. The Interstate club has purchased 5,000 acres from English capitalists; paying six dollars an acre, and they have options on 17,000 acres more, and negotiations are now pending to close this deal. The land which is desired will cost about $100,000, and the club proposes to expend about $2,000,000 in improving and beautify­ ing it. Automobile drives will be con­ structed throughout the grounds, 32 miles in length, and along every mile the outlook will vary from ridge bluff, How Wild Animals Are Trained' A View of the Projected Park.

It is in winter quarters now, of course, so the scene by day is quite different from what you might picture it to be in the summertime, when the familiar tents are the habitation of animals, performers and all. All is dark and gloomy in the empty auditorium. The rows and rows and rows of seats are all covered ovpp-tcr protect them from dust It isjfcfird to believe that after nightfall tfais place will be filled with men, Women and children, and all sorts of noise and funmaking. But there is almost always this con­ trast between fun and the absence of fun. The contrast makes the latter ap­ pear gloom! Look-at a comedian when Ms face is attest, and it will look piteously melancholy--by con­ trast to the expression you have been used to seeing there. Meanwhile, what ate the animals doing? And where are all the per­ formers and animal trainers? Are they out having a good time some­ where? Indeed, no! They are working, and working hard, too, in the workrooms When circuses first began to g* around the country giving perform­ ances, they sometimes found that the audience became so noisy and inat­ tentive that even the most difficult and wonderful of tricks: failed to im­ press them in the least. ' How could the audience be lcept un­ der control and its interest kept up from beginning to end? Ah! thought trma^STanagST^q^usic will help us out. So he tried thefejujeriment of hiring a lively band and hajving it play loud and me*Ttty--when ynot.hing was do­ ing," and stop ahort^he moment some performance was begun! This brought the audience up sharp and fixed their whole and undivided attention oa the performers. So that explains the invariable pres­ ence of bands in circuses. By far the most interesting men la a circus are the animal-trainers, says the Los" Angeles Times. First of all they must have certain qualities--per­ suasiveness, gentleness and yet plen­ ty of firmness and great kindliness. These qualities make the people pos­ sessing them most interesting, espe­ cially when you behold the wonderful results achieved through them in the l> LOTTERY FOR AID OF CHURCH w I: ONE SANCTIONED FOR RAISING IEY FOR NEEDED REPAIRS. AnSiM Cathedra! at Alx-la-Chapelle, Where Charlemagne Is Buried, v the Center of an Unusual S . Enterprise. ""Wm venerable cathedral at Alx-la- Chapelle is to be repaired, and that through the medium of a lottery, a seeming incongruity, to many minds. During recent years the decay of the ancient structure "has been rapid and Che necessity of repairs if the historic building was to be preserved has long been apparent. But the difficulty which has troubled the church author­ ities has been the lack of funds, for even church buildings require money when it comes to making repairs. It would take, so the architects said; # ' tr w m -'The Cathedral of Aix-ia-Chapelle. lethlng like $75,000 to make the necessary repairs and restore the building to anything like its former Strength and glory, but where those $76,000 were to come from nobody seemed to know. It was while in this dilemma that the suggestion came of organizing a lottery for the purpose of raising this considerable sum. It seemed1 a great calamity to suffer the church where the body of the great Charlemagne lay buried to become a total ruin and because no other feas­ ible plan suggested itself for the rait­ ing of the money, the authorities sanc­ tioned the plan of a lottery, and it is hoped that the entire $75,000 will be raised in this way. The inhabitants of Rhenish Prussia, In particular, and Germany In general, have been invited to indulge in this pious gamble. Those who lose their money--as most of them, of course, will--will be able to solace themselves with the thought that what they are out of pocket will be posted up to their credit in the ac­ count# kept of incorruptible treasures, and those who obtain prizes will suf­ fer no misgivings that their winnings represent ill-gotten gains. Ip Amer­ ica, of course, lotteries are forbidden, but on the continent they are fre­ quently employed for religious and philanthropic purposes. The original chapel at Alx-la-Chap- elle was built by Charlemagne near the end of the eighth century. After its destruction by the Normans it was rebuilt by Otho III. in 983, and forms the nucleus of the cathedral. This an­ cient cathedral is in the form of an octagon, which, with various addi­ tions round it, forms on the outside a 16-sided figure. In the middle of the octagon a stone with the inscription "Carlo Magno" marks the site of the grave of Charlemagne. In 1215 Fred­ erick II. caused the remains of the emperor to be Inclosed In a costly shrine. The grave has been opened more than once, the last time at the kaiser's command. In the newest part of the edifice are kept the so-called "great relics," which once in seven years are shown to the people and al­ ways attracts thousands of pilgrims. But as a means of raising money in these modern days more dependence is to be placed on a lottery than on the most venerated of relics. .. ? . $ i' P**' A.'#t IV wfc The Animal Trainer at Work. and training yards which are down the corridors a little way. v< Here are the clowns. Do they have to work? They do, indeed. Only prac­ tice makes the really good clowns keep on being good. The tumblers, the acrobats, the trick performers--yott will see them here, there and everywhere, hard at work, with serious faces, practicing stunts which they learned- and mastered years before, perhaps. But that makes no difference. They must practice dally If they are to feel abso- iuely sure of themselves when the time for the public performance ar­ rives. ; How long do you suppose it took a first-class Juggler, for instance, to toaster his trick of tossing up bil­ liard balls and catching them on the point of his cue? It took three and a half years of daily practice! So you can see that circus perform­ ers are very hard-working people! Life is no fun for them, not; if they fail /to do their parts perfectly. training of hojses, elephants and other animals. You would be surprised if you could see how quickly these animals forget their stunts; how patiently the train­ ers have to go over their work again. Perhaps you have noticed that at times trained animals quite refuse to perform properly^ when they are out on the stage. Stubbornness and changeableness of mind are things the trainers always have to reckon with in theiv charges. And, on the whole,' it is simply wonderful how great their control is over them. The, busy artists--tight-rope walk­ ers, tricksters, trainers and all--prac­ tice busily until about four o'clock on days when they do not give matinee performances, then they stop for a lit­ tle rest and supper, for the evening performance will began early and last late, and they will need all" their streijjsth for it. Do you boys and girls think you would like so "very much to be in a circus, after all1?, A BOY MU8ICIAN. 'Ar '..j .

Gladstone as an Orator Statesman Had Many Tricks for Use in Argument. 0 In his prime, la a great debate when political parties were set et in ba tie array, Gladstone's transceiver .bat- jnt oratorical gifts had full play.

Sometimes with both hands raised above his head; often with left elbow leaning on the box, right hand with closed fist shaken at the head of an unoffending country gentleman on the back bench oppo­ site; anon, standing half a step back from the table, left hand hanging at his side, right uplifted, so that he might with thumb-nail lightly touch the shining crown of his head, he trampled his way through the argu­ ment he assailed as an elephant in an hour of aggravation rages through a jungle.--Henry W.

Mr. Samson Biggs is a schoolmaster, whose precept and practice of the blessings of punctuality are, as a rule, faultless. Should a lad be five minutes late In the morning, he is "kept in" ten minutes after school; If ten min­ utes, a penance of 20 minutes is im­ posed, and so on. But even Homer nods, and lo! Mr. Samson Biggs was a whole half hour late himself ono morning. Among the pupils there was the usual smart boy, who was not slow to remind him of his offence, nor to quote from some of his own lectuires on the subject. "Yes, boys," said Samson, when he had listened to the smart boy. "Nich­ olson is right, and, as I punish you, It Is only fair that you should punish me. So you shall- all stay and keep me in for an hour after school this after- Patience and Good Judgmen^Necded ' M Avoid Difficulties* - "might prevent much prof&ttty in* thought and word, and a great deal of impatience, if the dairyman and farm­ er, face to face with the unbroken heifer and young calf problem, *rould keep in mind this advice, by a& insti­ tute worker ii*v the state of -New York: ' "Fix things so the calf can never suck its dam, and when the cow has mothered it a few hours--don't be in too great a<xush about it--milk about three quarts of her milk into a pail, put it up under the calf's nose so as to„ touch it, and in a minute it will drink from the word go, and you have won out. A calf that has nevei1 sucked will drink as readily as it will get the hang of finding its own dinner. By the same rule a heifer should always be hand- milked, and then knows,no other way. Let the calf run with her a few days, and then milk her, is, In her way of thinking, robbery of her calf, and you have to break her, which often is quite a vaudeville show, and often of somewhat unpleasant memory. From the start play that you are heifer's calf--and make her believe it; and to the calf, be its god of the feed diiih, and the rest is a pleasant pastime." By the way, these suggestions as to a calf's meal may be timely in tfcis connection: One part pure ground flax­ seed, two parts finely ground corn- meal sifted, two parts of finely ground oatmeal sifted, and the whole mixed; then.boil and allow to stand for 12 hours, covered. Begin with one-fourth pound per day for calves a month old --new milk for the month previous, and no solids. Increase the amount of solids as the calf grows older, but not to exceed a pound a day. Keep fresh, second cutting of clover or al- faU&.Jbay before it. v * " ^ 1 * ' DAIRY NOTE8. ; To keep tip the flow of milk always milk clean, A really good cow will lose flesh rather than gain it when in full flow of milk. A routine way of doing things saves much time, but we must Improve.that routine if we can. Stop the churn as soon as the but­ ter granulates if you want to work out all the butter milk. With a thoroughly good cow to man­ ufacture it we can always afford .to put in feed and take out butter. If the heifer calf is to become a good dairy cow she muBt be fed as though she were a good cow now. All cows do not like the same kind of feed, neither will they dp so well as they would on some other kind. Under present conditions the most profitable dairy cow is the one that helps you to make the most butter in winter. Rich food makes rich milk; the best cow In the world will not give good milk unless she Is given food from which to make it. Butter will never grain finely in "coming" If the fat globules have pre­ viously been injured by overheating of the cream or too much violence in churning. All milk vessels should be thorough­ ly cleaned, first being well washed, then scalded with boiling watey. and afterwards sufficiently aired keep them perfectly sweet. parental -QuMMiHt ^ ;* To be tftctful is the only means of parental vitetory; to be watchful while ywic&TOLp TESTlHONy. •n ^ ^ <.y ; ^ y . • ' . j'1* , ^ Hi ' ittH illn' .iiltfi "h.W .ttwt, - • ; i i A PROFITABLE s«0 Th# «Kperlenco of One Man Whe Made It P*y. I Hve ta the outskirts of a small city and have an«occupation that takes most of my time. I find opportunity, however, to take care of two cows, which I find very profitable, writes a correspondent of Farmers* Review. Probably they would not be so profita­ ble If I made dairying my business. But as I am content to keep the two cows as a side issue, I tod the returns large!? profit. I got into the business by accident. A neighbor was going to move a-way* and had an exceptionally fine cow with a calf at foot. The cow had no pedigree and belonged to no particular breed, but she was. one of the kind we often meet with among the cows of no pedigree. She was perhaps six years old, though no record existed of her age. I judged by her horns. t I was a little doubtful about the wisdtfm of buying her, but found out by' ex­ perience that I had no reason for that kind of a feeling. Her milk was riph, and I thought then very rich indeed. As I never used the Babcock test I do not know just how large a per cent, of butter fat there was In it. I think it must have been at least five per cent. milk. The yield was large, run­ ning on sdme days to more than 15 quarts, which I hold is a good yield Jfor a cow. In this connection I wish "to say that I have heard a great many people tell about their cows giving 20 and more quarts per day, when I hav'e felt sure that they were guess­ ing at the amount their cows were giv­ ing. One of the popular errors among farmers and others that own cows is to believe that their cows give more milk by 50 per cent, than they do. The cow above mentioned gave on the average perhaps ten quarts of milk per day, but she gave It the year around, for I balance up her short dry time with the flush time after calving when she gave a very large amount of milk. ' Some of this milk was set for cream out of which to make but­ ter, but most of it was sold to people that came for it. In 3V6 months the 'cow and calf had paid for them­ selves, and after that we fre­ quently took in for milk from that cow about $10 per month, besides hav­ ing what we wanted to use on our table. " That led to the buying of another pow; and after that the purchase of two more. That proved to be too many for me to care for, and we cut the • number down to two. I think it is more profitable to have two good cows than four cows of indifferent value. One cf my neighbors became so In­ terested in the matter of milk produc­ tion that he went in too deep and failed to make very much money. He had seven or eight cows at one time, and he was not engaged in dairying as a business either. He did not have enough cows to justify him in keeping a hired man, and so his wife had to turn in and help take care of the cows. I am sure that it became an element of contention in the family and led to much unhappiness. One should know where to draw the line. If one is con­ tented to keep two good cows it is better than half keeping, four poor ones, and there is more profit in it. •0 1% A : Woman Who Has Suffered | How to Find Relief.

Preaching Oairy Improvement. Every farmer owes it to his com­ munity to preach the gospel of dairy Improvement, If he himself has been won over by the Idea. The number of men that are wasting their time talcing care of worthless cows is ap­ palling. A worthless cow is one that gives not more than enough milk to pay fen* the food she consumes, says Farmers' Review. A man might care for such a cow for years and never r*»ap any benefit from, his work. It is a surprising thing that it is so hard a task to persuade men to abandon such unprofitable enterprises. There are many effective ways of winning farmers from this unprofitable course, and one of them is the preaching of dairy improvement to those that never read a farm paper, never attend a farmer's institute and have no use for the agricultural college.
