KING OF BEASTS.
A Famous Hunter Awards tho
Scepter to the Lion.
His Careless Bravery Has Near¬
ly Resulted In Extermination.
Sir Samuel Bai cr, the African trav-
»ler, considers the lion the monarch of
beasts, and describes the diminution
in the number of lions to the slangli
ter by meu which is the result of (lie
fearlessness with which the lion ex-
poses hini<cif. There is nothing ho
says in his new book, “so beautiful
or enjoyable to my ea"s ns the roar of
a lion upon a still night, when every-
thing is calm and no sound disturbs
the solitude except the awe-inspiring
notes, like the rumble of distant thuii-
der, as they die away into the deepest
bass. The first few notes somewhat
resemble the bellow of a bull; these
are repeated in slow succession four
or fire times, after which the voice is
sunk into a lower key, nnd n number
of quick, short roars are at length fol-
lowed by rapid coughing noises, - so
deep and powerful that they seem to
vibrato through the earth.”,
If wild animals arc terrible in coin-
bat, they are still grander when their
inteutious arc pacific. ‘‘Upon several
occasions,’’ says Sir Samuel, “I have
seen Hons close to mo when I-have
had no opportunity of shooting, and
they have invariably passed on with-
out the slightest si ns of angry feel*
ing. I was riding along a very deso-
lnt£ path, and a lioness, followed by
five Nearly full-grown young ones,
walked quietly from tho jungle, and
then crossed w ithin a few yavds of my
horse’s head, apparently without fear
or evil disposition. I well remember,
at the close of a long march, we liaitbd
beneath a large tree, which I consul-
ored would form an agreeable shads
for our tent.
“1 gave my rifle to a servant, who
deposited it against tho tree, prepara¬
tory to ray dismounting, when* lion-
ess emerged from the budies aud
walked nneoncerhedly through our
party, within only a few feet of the
startled horses. She disappeared
without having condescended to in¬
crease her pace. Upon another occa*
tion I had tired the grass, which had
left a perfectly clean surface after the
blaze. The night wns bright moon
light, and I was standing in front of
the tent door when a large maned lion
and lioness crossed the opon space
within ten or twelve yards from my
position aud stood for a few moments
regard.ug the white tent: they passed
slowly forward, biit had disappeared
before I had time to return with a
rifle.”
Sir Samuel Baker says that “in the
early days of the world’s history tho
lion'occupied a very extensive area.
It was common in Mesopotamia aud
in Syria, in Persia and throughout the
whole of India. ,Jt is now confined to
a limited number in Guzerat, and a
few in Persia. Beyond these locali¬
ties it has ceased to exist in Asia.
There can be little-doubt that, unless
specially protected, it will become ex¬
tinct in Asia within the next hundred
years. Africa is the only portion of
the globe where the lion remains lord
of the forest, as the king of beasts.
The question has frequently been dis¬
cussed, ‘Why tjtould the lion have
vanished from the scene where in
ancient days lie reigned in all his
glory?’ The answer is simple, the
lions have Veen exterminated.
“There is a nobility in the character
of s lion that dificrs o.mireiy from the
slinking habits of tigers, leopards aud
the feline race in general. Altlt ntglt
tho lion is fond of dense retreats, ho
exposes himself in many ways, which
tho tiger seldom or never does, unless
compelled by a line of beaters. This
exposure, or carelessness of conceal¬
ment, renders -his destruction com¬
pare ively easy. On the other hand,
the lioness brings forth a numerous
family, generally five or six at a
birth, which should keep up the num¬
ber of the race; iu spite of this pro¬
lific nature, the lion having from time
immemorial been an attraction to the
mighty hunter, man has proved too
much for him.”
Treatment for Sprained Ankle.
- If a twist is followed by a pain that
laele longer than a few minutes, do
not continue to step upon the leg to
which the mishap has occurred. Lift
the leg to a level with the body when
seated and apply cold, wet band ges
for several hours, if the sprain is se¬
vere wrap the injured part in cot¬
ton batting and bandage it snugly and
evenly. A narrow strip of padded In
board adjusted t&neath it will aid
seeping the part quiet aud thus ren¬
der restoration more rapid. Absolute
rest is the best remedy for a sprain.
The wrappings should be renewed
daiiy, witli as litt’e movement of the
limb as possible.—[Brooklyn Citizen.

CCBF FOR PLKfUO-l'NErMOXIA.
According to tlie farm manager to
tho Duke of Richmond, plcuro-pncu-
monia ran ho cured by causing au af¬
fected beast to inhale paraffine oil.
lie says he has tried his remedy on
several ochasions with much success,
aud that others who have followed his
example testify to the efficiency of the
treatment. A sponge saturated witli
thcoil is placed in one nostril, while
( ] le other is closed with the hand, thus
compelling the animal to inhalo tho
oil.— [Commercial Advertiser.
DRIED GRASS AND CHOI* llOl’XI*.
'When a ben eat> dried grass, which
she will do after frost, it will, in a
majority of cases, hccomc closely packed
at tho oritico leading from the crop to
the gizzard, aud prevent the passage
of food into the crop. In such a case,
the lieu dies of hunger, although her
crop may DC full. No remedy exists
but to open the crop and remove the
contents, hut tho safer plan is to burn
over the yards when the grass dies
down, thus removing tho cause of
difficulty.—[Furm and Fireside,
WINTER FEEDING OF COWS.
When cows are taken from the pus-
ftire, which should he before they run
down for want of food, they should
be put at once on full Winter allow-,
unco for morning and evening and
run in the fields through the day as
long as possible. The exercise will ho
good for them. Five pounds of cut
hay of the best kind, moistened and
mixed with throe quarts of tho finest
fornmeal, with a small handful of
salt, will moke a fair ration for an
average sized cow, but a good cow
will eat one-fourth more than this
with profit. This ration should he
given morning uml evening. As long
as the weather is fair tho cows maybe
turned out at night, hut should be
kept locked up in cold, rainy weather.
—[New York Times,
FEED AND FEEDING.
Thousands of farmers could make
ten dollars a day by selling corn and
buying bran.
A hole in tho stock shelter lets feed
through just as truly as does a holo in
the granary.
The man that gives his animals no
shelter is trying to warm up all out¬
door. by burning feed. Ilis job is
both hopeless and expensive.
Economy of food is promoted by
diminishing the demand for heat. The
demand for heat is diminished by shel¬
ters from cold air and moisturo.
If men who feed fodder on the
muddy ground, rear scrubby animals,
and look on manure as a nuisance, es¬
cape the poor-house, how great indeed
may ho our reward of prosperity.—
[American Agriculturist.
FARMEB8 LONG-LIVED.
Farmers will be interested in know¬
ing that insurance actuaries credit
them with an average life of sixty-
four years—a long life as compared
with (he average for persons in some
other employments, Bank officers
aro bracketed with farmers as Jiving
sixty-four years. The average life of
coopers, public officers, clergymen,
shipwrights, hatters, lawyers, rope-
walkers, blacksmiths, merchants, phy¬
sicians, butchers and carpenters is
between fifty and fifty-nine years nnd
that of masons, traders, tailors and
jewellers between forty-four and for¬
ty-eight years. Editors have a hard
time of it and live only forty years.
Clerks have a still harder time and live
only thirty-four years, There is one
class of men who live longer than
even tins farmers or hank officers and
that is the judges,who livo on an aver¬
age sixty-five years, That must he
duo to the fact that lawyers do not of¬
ten become judges unless they have
exceptionally strong constitutions.—

MANURING FOR WHEAT.
Tho old plan of manuring for wheat
was to haul out and apply on the stub¬
ble and then plough under, After
this came the plan of top dreising,
preparing tho ground and sowing the
seed, and then hauling ont and scat¬
tering the manure over the growing
crop. In addition to applying a good
dressing of fertilizer in this way, the
manure afforded considerable protec¬
tion to the plants. After the plough¬
ing has been done it will bo found a
good plan to haul out and apply all the
manure possible, scattering evenly
over the ground, and the work of har¬
rowing and preparing the soil in a
good tilth will work the manure reas¬
onably well in tho soil and place it
where the soluble portions will he
available for the use of the plants.
An advantage of this plan is that,
ns a rule, it will interfere less with
tiie other work of tho farm. If de¬
layed until after wheat is sown there
are the potatoes to dig, tho corn to be
cut and cared for and so many items
of work to he done that it is not al¬
ways possible to haul ont the manure.
If commercial fertilizers are to be used
a good plan is to use a drill in sowing
the seed with a fertilizing attachmeu
aud do all the work at oue tiirte. The
use of comuierciaVfertiliiers with this
crop lias increased very materially of
late, so much so that it has become
quite an item wi h the crops.
By many sail is considered a goon
materiel to use in fertilizing wheat.
1>ie w,a pien or applying is rensoita-
bly early iu the spring, scattering
broadcast over the surface. The prin¬
cipal gain in using salt is that it nets
upon the soil so as to mnko plant food
already in the soil available. In order
to receive a vigorous, thrifty growtii*
a reasonably rich soil is necessary, and
if the soil is not naturally rich it
should bo made so by the application
of fertilizers.—[Home and Farm.
docks ix n.vv.
Many years ago an experienced
fanner was asked what weed he con-
sidered worst, nnd to our surprise bo
promptly answered tho narrow dock.
The mystery was explained, howc W ;,.
when it was learned that lie- made lilfy
his chief crop. f ihe clock se eds very
early. It ripens its seeds before it is
cut with the grass, and so once in.the
ground it is in fair way to be spmid
over the farm through tho manure
pile. Yet the narrow dock is not u
hard plant to get rid of. Immediately
after a soaking rain grasp it firmly by
the stem near the ground, and the'en-
tirc root will come up if you pull hard
enough.
If the ground is dry the stalks wil
break near the root, and the now shoots
that come up will not he strong enough
to pull by. When you get the root
out, hang it up somewhere until dry
and burn it.' We have heard some
queer stories about tho vitality of
dock-roots under adverse circum¬
stances. Once after hanging several
weeks on a fence-- corner, one was
knocked or thrown down where a part
of the dried root tone' ed moist earth;
it absorbed moisture and actually be¬
gan to start leaves for a new growth,
when an end was made to the experi¬
ment by consigning the dock to the •
kitchen fire.— [Boston Cultivator.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Begonias like plenty of heat and not
overmuch moisture.
When you burn coal or wood or
hotli save all (he ashes.
Prepare hives, boxes and other ma¬
terial for the coming season.
Clean up and pack away boxes that
are to be used a second time.
Have the rats gone into winter quar¬
ters? Better rout them at once.
Have you ever figu: cd tho rattnge
on your farm? What was the result?
If all the requirements have been
observed, bees will now need hut little
care.
Attend to proper vontilalion and
temperature, us required by changes
of weather,
Much of tho labor of the farm can
be. avoided by the simple use of good
common sense.
It will pay bettor to mako a shed of
posts and poles using straw or fodder
for a roof, than to allow the fodder to
stand out to the weather.
If you store celery in tho cellar for
winter use, you can cut off a large
portion of tho green leaves without
injury. Pack in earth.
Incubator hatching incurs some risk,
but nothing risked, nothing-'gained,
The market for home-laid eggs will
be larger in future.
Now is the timo to purchase breed¬
ing fowls. They will be dearer in tho
Spring, and perhaps not so healthy as
if you had raised them yourself.
No animal can be healthy without
exercise. If it is not healthy it will
not pay for its-keep. Mako a “run”
for the Winter uso of your liens.
In buying apple trees the yearlings
are cheaper, more easily handled, re.
quire less work in every way, and will
make a tino tree if the pi'o’pt’r care is
given.
After digging up root crops nnd
cutting corn, the weeds are frequently
left to grow. They should he har¬
rowed down or they will spread their
seeds and give trouble in future years.
Bead aud study out subjects of in¬
terest, and be ready to begin the ensu¬
ing season’s work promptly, with an
adequate comprehension of the extent
of the business to he conducted, and a.
just appreciation of the details therein
involved.
A Poor Opinion of the Horse.
Sir Samuel Baker, the African trav¬
eler, considers the horse “next door to
a lunatic.” But it may be remem¬
bered to the advantage of that familiar'
quadruped, that Sir Samuel's experi¬
ences in hunting have been mainly in
Asia and Afiica, where but little hunt¬
ing is done on horseback, and where
the climates are unfavorable to the
horse, lie consider, the elephant an,
overrated animal, so far as intelligence
goes, and, as between it and the dog,
holds that the dog is man’s fvifcTia and
the elephant man’s slave.—[New York-

eration in which that animal was held by
the Egyptians, for except for the fact
that they probably regarded the cow as a. holy kill¬
beast, all would have been
ed off In tune of famine. We have rea¬
son to be [fl id that tho cow has survived.
It is estimated that it requires fifteen
fnlllloi) rows to supply tho demand
for inilk nnd its products ill the
United Btntes. Fi ty- per cent, of the
milk.they aive is made into 'cheese and
butter. It takes twenty-seven pounds of
milk to make on’c pound of butter, and
about tin pounds of milk to make one
pound of cheese. There half is as much
meaty food in ciylit abd a pounds of
milk, as one pound of beef. It would
require , about 24 000,OoO fat steers
weighing 15,000 sauio'tfmount pounds each to provide
us with the of nutrition as
we get in the annual milk product.

One failure to cure would

Its makers profess to cure
“ cold in the head,” and even
chronic catarrh, and if they
fail they pay $500 for their
over-confidence,—
Not in newspaper words
but’in hard cash / Think of
what confidence it takes to
put that in the papers—and
mean it.
