Don’t allow the poultry drop

Have you ever figured out what
it Costs you to keep a cow for a
year? ’ If not, why not?
Do you know of any reason why
a farmer should not keep “ac
counts” as well as any other busi
ness man?
The common practice of many
farmers of keeping more horses
than they have employment for in
winter is destructive of profit.
Don’t hatch out a lot of chick
ens in midwinter, or very early
spring, anless you have a suitable
place in which to raise them.
The buildings, fences and vehi
cles of the “good farmer” are well
taken care of, and neatness is a
feature of his house and farm.
Don’t imagine that beeuase
“fowls in the wild state never have
cooked food,” it is unnecessary to
give domestic fowls cooked food.
Any breed that fails to • pay its
bills can meet with but little per
manent popularity, so to reason
invertingly, we may feel that the
popular breed is a paying breed.
What more could you expect?
It is estimated that a horse can
pull twice as much on a macadam
road as on a dirt raod; three times
as much on a road paved with
granite blocks as on a macadam
road, and two and one-fifth times
as. much over asphalt as over gran

eight slidding. grooved wheels in
the center of the large wheel. His
feet are in a straddle position; that
is, one on each side, and rest upon
foot rests, which are fastened to
the seat by means of steel rods.
To set the curious machine in
motion the rider leans forward,
thus changing the center of gravi
ty and causing the wheel to re
volve. The next move is to re-es
tablish the center of gravity, but
according to the inventor the cen
ter cannot be found and the wheel
continues revolving, gaining speed
at each turn. There is no limit to
the speed obtainable. The edges
of both wheels ai;e grooved and can
he used on a railroad track as well
as on the ground. By means of a
peculiar arrangement of canvas,
which covers the steel spokes near
the center and forms an air tight
space which extends around the
wheel, the inventor says the struct
ure can travel in water as well as
on land. The canvas, when the
machine is used on land, serves as
an umbrella to shield the rider
from the sun and rain.
The machine can be made to com
plete a circle by simply throwing
the weight on the opposite side
from which the rider desires to go.
A passenger can be carried by
simply extending the seat to the
small wheel. The seat does not
move when the machine is in op
eration; in fact, it acts as the axle,
allowing the wheel to slide around
it. Hr. Brietemmoser claims that
the heavier the load earned the
quicker the machine can travel,
The model is yet a very crude
looking affair. The canvas which
serves as an umbrella and float is
ornamented with the inscription,
“Perpecturl Motion, Joseph Briet
emmoser, 1888.” The inventor has
already secured ten patents for va
rious devices invented by him.
He"is also employed in building a
very peculiar looking mill, which,
when, completed, will be capable |
of turning out six to ten different
grapes of flour at the same time.

ford the Oueme river, there being
a superstition among those unciv
ilized people which prevents them
from using boats, and it usually
ends about March 1, as the river
again rises a little later on. Last
year the raiders jjare more daring
than ever, approaching within
few miles of the capital; and at
village called Danbo, over which
the French flag floated, they kill
ed the chief and his family, and;
wrapping the head of one of their
victims in the French flag, pro
ceeded to take it to the King
Dahomey. Recently Dr. Bayol,
the French governor of the Gabon
capital, while on a visit to the Da
homian capital, was compelled
witness the killing of 200 prison
ers in one forenoon. Such atroci
ties as these aroused France to ac
tion.
Dahomey is not far from
mouth of the Niger. The source
of its revenue is neither agricul
ture nor any kind of industry, but
the traffic in slaves. The people
worship idols, and make human
sacrifices to them, and when the
old king died, sometime ago,
son, who became king in his stead,
determined to celebrate his obse
qnies by making human sacrifices
on a larger scale than ever before,
and he procured the victims from
Porto Xovo. He is said to image
himself a great and powerful ruler,
and to have announced his inten
tion of taking all the prisoners he
pleases. He has an ’army various
ly estimated at from 15,000 to 25,
000 warriors, some of whom, as our
readers know, are women. The
army was formerly, a very lage
one, but it has dwindled year by
year, and as it is composed
poor soldiers, poorly equipped, it
is not very formidable, and the
civililihg task which . France has
undertaken is not likely to he so
difficult as some reports indicate.
