% Middlings Need Bnsilage. Tn some feeding experiments it was determined that middlings have about twenty-two per cent, more value as feed than bran, but they should be fed with ensilage to produce a laxative effect. Never feed ground teed *lone, always with some roughage. Shelter in the Pasture. Have some shelter in the pasture ^which the cattle can seek if storm comes up. Young stock and dairy cows especially suffer from exposure to the cold rains which are common at this season, and their discomfort is a dead loss to their owner.?Farmers' Home Journal. Better Cows. As to better cows, there is just oue way to get them. That is to get good sires, to test the cows for dairy work, 'o get rid of the poor ones and save calves only from those ihat pay their K?v Dniner this we can soon have as good dairy herds as are to be found anywhere. We have a few of them now, but all too few. ? Farmers' Home Journal. Skimmed Milk. Pigs fed on skimmed milk, either sweet or sour, give good satisfaction, although care should be taken not to change from one to the other. Pigs seem inclined to the sour rather than to the sweet, and in either case grain foods should be fed with it in order to make a balanced ration. Skimmed milk as a food for all young animals is an aid to the digestive organs, as there is not a particle of it but is digestible.?Farmers' Home Journal. Reaping His Reward. The wise farmer who went along about his business, raising hogs and corn to feed them., is reaping his reward, while the foolish farmer is gnashing his teeth?with corn around jixty cents per bushel at the farm, and hogs around $9 per 100 pounds at the home market, it is easy to figure the profits in the business. The farmer who sticks to his chosen line of farming, seeking to improve his methods undisturbed by the temporary ups and downs of the markets, will, in the long run, make larger gain than the man who is constantly being lured by promises of quicker and larger profits into ' other fields.?Farm World. Farmer's Cows. On the average farm where It is not the intention to do extensive dairy work, we find many cows that are cross-bred animals. They have oeen bred with the idea of producing a dual purpose; or farmer's cows, as Iuey cu e buiiicLiiiicb taucu. JL cows are usually a cross between aome beef breed and a breed of dairy qualities, and as a result we have neither, but a mongrel whose good qi^alities are hard to discover. We have a cow that not only does not produce enough milk and butter to pay for the care and feed she receives, but produces a calf that does not develop sufficiently to pay for the milk and the feed it receives. There have been cows that produced a fair amount of milk and butter, whose calves were better than the average dairy calf, but it must be understood that these are exceptions and are hard to find. There are other points, too, that are against these cows doing their best. The feed and care many receive quite frequently consists only of pasture in summer and corn, hay, straw and cornstalks in winter. The milking is done out of doors most of the year and the cows are only stabled during the severest weather.?Farmers' Home Journal. Indian Runner Docks. A more profitable kind of poultry than the Indian Runner Ducks would be hard to find. They were supposed to have been imported from India to TSn2land. where thev are ereat favor ttes with the poultry raisers; they were first bred in the United States about fifteen years ago, and have become such a favorite with the poultry raisers that for the past few years eggs and stock are in such demand that the breders can't fill the demands made on them for stock and eggs. They are not large, weighing from four to five pounds. But such a sight, to see a flock of well fed Indian Runners, their fawn and white markings, erect carriage, make them admired by all. But best of all their egg producing qualities, laying every month in the year. By culling and keeping best layers we have now a strain that are great egg producers. In the year |f 1909 ours laid eggs every montb; lfD_ not so many eggs were laid through July and August, while moulting, as other months, but in months of December and when from five to ten below zero our laid well. Just think of going out and picking up eggs of mornings out of snow. And for standard requirements we now have them, duck and drake, with only fawn and white markings, no bro vn or penciling on duck or green or black head markings on drake. Ours last year made us an average of $7 per head for eggs alone from breeding stock, not counting stock sole*. The eggs are very fertile. We have made shipments and have had reports of every egg hatching. Several breeders report their flock laying an average of more than 201) eggs and a few 250 eggs each. The eggs are fine for table use; do not have the strong flavor common to old-fashioned duck tggs, and are as good for table use and cannot be told from hen eggs by taste. Young are easily raised, and only require water for drinking. They require very little more feed than other poultry and a great part of the j years will pick up much of their feed j if given range, as they go over large | space in searching for food. But a ; small feed of grain given at night will j bring them home ready to be shut up J ^till after laying time next morning. | They do well when kept 'in pens, and a twenty-four inch fence will keep ^ them confined in pens. We have bred them for seven years and have nothing but praise for them. Who would | not give them praise with their beau- i tiful fawn and white markings, erect j carriage and best of all their egg pro- ! ducing qualities that is their pullieig j power among poultry raisers? Farm- i ers scarcely miss the amount of feed I given them, as they get most of feed ! while ranging over pastures eating ! grasshoppers, bugs and other insects j , which injure crops, and they do not ; require expensive houses to keep them 1 in; houses only require to be dry. I No roosts or other expensive arrange- j ments required, and do not have roup, gapes, lice like other poultry. So let's help up higher the best breed of poultry that grows feathers.?G. Frank Yates, in Farmers' Home Journal. j Good Currycomb and Brush. The object of most inventions is a j - ?_ 1 saving of time or labor or ootn. xne man who succeeds in doing this us- ! , uaily finds a market for his invention, i so it would seem that the California [ man who designed the combination currycomb and brush has made him- i self solid with the rural vote. This j , apparatus consists of an ordinary cur- J rycomb plate with a projection ex- j . r\ || 1 VS I c a Currycomb and Brush. tending from the handle, and a brush with a hollow handle. To make the combination all that is necessary is to thrust the handle of the comb into tlie handle of the brush and one implement is formed. Instead, then, of raking a horse with the currycomb and going over him again with the brush, the whole operation can be performed with one stroke by passing the brush portion of the new implement over the path left by the preced- I ing stroke of the comb when the next j sweep of the comb is made. In this j way two horses can be cleaned in the i time it used to take to groom one. Poultry Notes. There is much less worry attached ' to duck raising than to other branches j of poultry keeping.?E. C., in the In- j diana Farmer. A pen of eighteen, fifteen duck and j three drakes, will furnish an abundance of eggs. They will almost all ; give a strong duckling when well j cared for and properly mated. Another experiment showed that ; the average duckling required twenty- j five cents' worth of feed to prepare ! him for market. Those in question j were sold for fifty cents each; so of ! course there was good profit in them. I The Pekin seems to be the favorite ! market duck, and holds its own well, ! but the Indian Runner is the breed to ' get where eggs are the main Item. Tliey will make rapid gains, too, when well fed, for a duck is like a pig in this respect; give them good feed and they will soon show you good results. The profit is quick, so one is able to use the money for feeding latei hatches of ducks or for chicks. The earliest ducks bring the L?est prices, hut. there is a fair nroflt in the latei ones, where one will furnish the feed. Unless you are situated where you can procure reasonably good eggs whenever you wish them, it is mucb better to have a pen of breeders. Of late years the demand for ducks has increased greatly. That this increase will continue is a fact not to be doubted, so it will be a wise investment to procure several sittings of duck eggs, selecting the best of the ducks for next season's breeding pen, and procuring good drakes in January to mate. This, of course, il conditions allow of your raising ducks. Where one is growing exclusively for market, it seems there is more profit in ducks than chicks; some experiments where both chicks and \iui.i\jiuga WRCU at nit; oauitr agf and fed the same ration, show that ! the ducklings cost 1.9 cents a pound, j This is for a pound gain; the chicks I show a pound gain, cost 4.84 cents; j the ducklings were also ready for j market, while the chicks were yet too j small. It is almost unbelievable the i rapid gain that hearty ducklings will I make when fed right. Stolen Furs Found in Wilds. Fishermen, following a stream near Long Lake West, N. Y., came upon teveral bags containing expensive furs secreted in brush piles not far from the bank. The furs had not been tanned, but w.hat first looked like a case of smuggling developed into a robbery. The furs were traced to a point north of Montreal, where they had been stolen from a railway train en route. They were valued at 51300, ' and the railway company had alrep/jy | paid the claim upon them. I BOOK MURDERER BANE OF SECOND-HAND STORES He Cuts Pictures and Chapters From Rare Volumes. Destroying Their Value. "Do you see that man with the glasses and the anxious, nervous movement of his hands as he searches among the books?" asked ! the proprietor of a New York street j book store as he glanced at the curi- \ ous- crowd of book lovers fumbling j the second-hand books on the coun ter outside. "Every craft has its criminals. He . is the criminal of the second-hand j book trade. No. he is not a thief. | He is a murderer. That' term is a definite, exact one. "I can tell a murderer as soon as ! he stops in front of my stand. He | makes a hurried glance along the tables, picks out a certain kind of a book, generally an encyclopaedia or a book of famous men, or a compila- ' tion, and buys it. Sometimes he will . pay exorbitant prices. You can tell-; what to charge by the glance of his > eye as in triumph it lights on the book i he covets. "A murderer is a man or woman ; ic interested in a certain sort ' of picture or clippings from books about certain people. The most com- j mon murderer of the old days was the ! Napoleon Bonaparte murderer. The j collector of pictures of Napoleon j would search the second-hand book j stores till he found a book with a : picture of Napoleon and buy it, care- , fully cut out the picture, thus 'mur- j iering' the book as a perfect specimen . of a special edition, and then sell the ; book to some other store. In time ; that book might prove to be the val- j uable only copy of a first edition. It j might be quoted at $500. The bookseller offers it for sale. The expert 1 looks it over and says, 'But the pic- ! ture of Napoleon, made by the famous j etcher Spookums, is missing. It is i practically worthless.' Then it is that j the book dealer curses the murderer. "Nowadays in America the murderer is apt to be a man interested in the Battle of Gettysburg or of the Wilderness, or in the exodus of the Mormons or some other special object. I have seen men pick up books 3n the fifteen cent stand, look through j them, find some picture missing, and j urge :tne to find them a copy with the j picture intact. They have offered me I hundreds of dollars sometimes for a f book I have marked at fifteen cents ! if I can replace a picture or chapter that has been cut out by a murderer." Trouble at Oil City. A freight train ran over a skunk-1 above Oil City last week and the caboose of the train was left near the | Union Station in that town. The odor } of the dead skunk soon reached the j sleeping rooms of the hotels in the j vicinity ol' the station and there was a j persistent call to the night porters : by guests who believed the gas pipes j had broken Joose and there was dan- I ger of their being asphyxiated. Pas- j sengers on the early morning express j trains which stopped to change en- , gines thought the noxious scent arose from the oil refineries. The railroad ; men whose duty calls them to the sta- j tion were too busy keeping out of the windward of the fragments of the j dead animal that plastered the run* [ ning gear of the caboose to undeceive ! the misguided travelers as to the real ' nature of the odor and the fair repu- J tation of Oil City for purity of air and \ agreeable surroundings was blasted j by .the reports these travelers mado of j conditions that encountered them while they were en route through the ; city from Buffalo to Pittsburg.? j Philadelphia Record. Cause of His Delay. John J. Vertrees, who defenaea the j Secretary of the Interior in the Con- I gressional investigation of the Ballin- j ger-Pinchot row, was at one time j chairman of the State Democratic I Committee of Tennessee. During his incumbency of this office, the report came to him one election day that a ballot box in a certain precinct was i being stuffed in an open and disgraoe- i ful manner. Mr. Vetrees immediately called in one of his lieutenants. "Dick," he said, "the ballot box in blank precinct is being stuffed, according to reports I have just received. We want no such scandal in our party. Go and investigate the Dick, who was an ardent Democrat, just as Vertrees was, remained away for three hours. So long and inexplainable was his absence that his superior sent for him. "What's the matter, Dick?" asked Vertrees. "What kept you so long?" "Well, Mr. Vertrees," said Dick, triumphantly. "It was ro eaisy I had to stick in twenty-six myself."?Popular Magazine. A Triumphant Combination. A pushcart peddler called Jerry Cippolario, a familiar figure in upper First avenue, was arrested on Saturday night by an inspector of the Bureau of Weights and Measures, who found that one of Jerry's scales ' marked just one and one-half pounds ! short weight. On arriving before Magistrate Corrigan the prisoner "found no difficulty" in giving $100 bail, since it is stated that he is worth $70,000. Some persons professed great surprise at a pushcart peddler being so | rich. Why should anybody be surprised? Is not the explanation easy to see? Patience, industry, frugality and very short weights are a lucrative combination.?New York Sun. General Draper left S0,35S,487. An estate of $>G,358,4S7 was left j by General William F.

Of all our mountain birds the ptarnigan alone remains on the mountain :ops in winter as well as in summer, md when all other bird life has been compelled by the severity 6t the leather to descend to more sheltered quarters the hardy ptarmigan seems ilmost to revel in the Arctic conditions and scorns to leave his storraswept strongholds. For this reason he is of special interest to the ornithologist and a day it his haunts is always worth the labors of an arduous climb, for the ptarmigan rarely descends even during the heaviest snowstorms below the level of 2500 feet. As the writer, accompanied by a mountaineering friend, set out at daybreak for a favorite haunt of the ptarmigan, a hard frost held the whole countryside firmly in its grip, and the snow partly thawed by a mild westerly wind on the preceding day was%frozen as hard as iron. On the lower grounds the covering was not continuous, but on the sheltered sides of the hill were deep wreaths and to our west the snow lay deep and unbroken. Passing a small lochan nestling in a birch wood we found it thickly covered with a beautiful sheet of smoothest ice. suggesting to our minds the national game of curling, for many ideal rinks could have been marked out on the lochan'a surface. Soon we passed a mountain quarry, where ample evidence pointed to the fact that a kestrel used the spot as a. roosting site and tne musiae aiso yieiueu a guuu mau, grouse, some already paired, but the majority in ooveys and packs. Loch Davan far beneath us was partially ice bound, but large waves were rolling across the exposed surface of the water, showing that a strong wind was blowing on the low grounds. We put up many mountain hares, which seemed to rival the snow in their snowwhite fur, but shortly after leaving the 2000-foot level the grouse flushed were now few and fax between, and at length we entered the domain of the snow white ptarmigan. We first became aware of the closf proximity of these birds by a deep guttural croaking proceeding froxr some rocky ground on our left, anc careful stalking enabled us to gel within a few yards of the bird and tc obtain a snapshot of him. He was crouching low on the ground anc harmonized with his surroundings ir a truly remarkable manner. When he took wing the great beau ty of his plumage was very obvious, i few black featners in tne tan seumj off the spotless white of his wings anc breast. We obtained a pretty photo graph of a ptarmigan's footmarks leading through the wet snow to i small pool of water, and ample traces we found that the "fresh" of the pre vious day had been felt even at this altitude of close on 3000 feet, foi there was practically no snow on th< summit plateau, and numerous frozei pools of water showed how,the snow had melted.?The Field. ..Great Cathedral Dedicated.
