lost by fooling with 0110 of the captives,
he mate, .Inn Wheelan, and a sailor
named Dan Hryan had tho unusual luck
of witnessing a fight between a hijj black
irar ana a monster turlie. It occurred
at Key Minn. The schooner wasnt anchor
on the inside shore, while the men went
cross the island, half a milo or so. and
secured turtles on tho piilf shore. Tho
second niht these two, by some choice,
wandered tlown to the end of the island.
While going along cautiously they heard
a confused sound somo way ahead, as if
somo Kinil of a tight was going on
deal of thrashing about was audible.
and a sort of roar or grunt that sounded
liko ft bear was heard, l'ushing forward
they soon rounded a sharp turn that the
beach made, and tho cause of the rumpus
was before them. A t (irxt they could not
ten wuat it was, but saw that two big
forms wcro struggling together and
lighting furiously. From lie, grunts
they know that a" bear was one of the
combatants.
Cautiously and silently they came up
nearer and to thoir great surprise they
perceived that tho fight was between a
huge loggerhead turtle and a big, shaggy
black bear. From their po.siiious it
would scera that tho boar had sprung on
ino lunio as it was retreating to water,
and had tried to overturn it. In some
way jt had stepped in front of the turtle.
And Ihnlnttflr thriltttinrr ifa lmuil rtiii lio.l
quietly seized one of bruin's liintl'Vg
anii ncui on. At tnis the bear roared
loudly and pawed furious! 'at tho
turtle's back, trying to forte hira over cm
ins back. '1 his tho turtle resisted with
nil his strength and weight, tettling
down close to the ground whenever tho
benr made an extra effort, and then, as
tho latter relaxed his o Torts, tho turtlo
would suddenly start up and cmkavor
to get nearer the water, keeping his firm
noiu oi ino bear's leg nil the while. This
move would arouse bruin's ire again, and
the fierce contest would be renewed with
increased fury. Tho bear's disengaged
hind leg plowed the sand deeply as he
endeavored to stop tho turtle's progress
watcrward, while his fore paws clawed
loggerhead madly, vainly trying to find
some vulnerable spot; for, judging by
his angry crowlinc and tho dciierat"e
efforts he made to release his leu from
iuu repine a grip, me turtle was noiumg
on lor Keeps.
By sudden push and a powerful
muscular eltort of his head and paws
bruin managed to get the t jrtlo half-set,
oncsido being raised a foot or so. Fur
suing his advantage ho seized one of the
turtle's big flippers in his jaws, and the
snap mat lollowea showed that bruiu
felt that things were evening up. The
old loggerhead plainly didn't likethis
change of tactics, for its free Dippers
moved like the fan of a threshing ma
chine. Its big body plunged from sido
to siuo, wuilo it scattered the sand iu
showers all around as it tried to throw
off its big antagonist, "'ho bear was
dragged around considerably by tho
turtle's movements, and the pain in 'his
imprisoned leg evidently put him in very
bad humor, lie kent chewiiiu the turtle's
Hipper and endeavoring to get the hitter
overthrown. the -old turtle worked
around and finally got in a stroke with
its sharp claw that badly ripped the bear's
under side. This infuriated bruiu so
much that ho let go his grip on his nnla
gonisist's flipper, and reaching his head
down, tried to free his hind leg. Hut he
made a bad mistake, and tho fighting
mad loggerhead quickly improved his
opportunity. As bruin's noso came
within reach he let go the leg, and quick
as a flash fastoued his iron grip on the
bear's jaw.
The boys-say thut then ensued a
circus. The bear was thoroughly taken
by surprise, and ho roared lustily with
pain and rago. Tho turtlo pushed on
and dragged hii unwilling captivo along.
Tho latter saw his danger ami felt it,
too, for they wore so near tho water's
edge that the waves splashed over them.
Tho combat continued at this point for
several seconds ; it was plainly to be seen
that both were pretty well tuckered out,
and cither would have been williu to
cry quits. But neither dared let "go.
The loggerhead dragged him along aud
finally had him in water knee-deep.
Here he hud things more his own way.
Tho waves coming in dashed tho hear
about so that he maintained his footing
with difficulty. He frantically danced
about, endeavoring to get free, uud
using his terrible claws all he could, but
the turtle's eout of mail proved impene
trable. Bruin's strength now bejan to
fail, and his big foo took advantage of
every relaxation of his efforts to escape.
Slowly the turtle worked his way out
into deeper water, his flippers helping
him wonderfully in his native element.
A shelviug rock or slide was soon
gained, and there tho last struggle
took place. The turtle, half covered
with water, was raised time and ngiiu a
foot or so by the frantic struggle! of
the partially drowned bear, whoo head
was kept under tho water longer each
time. It was plainly to be seen now
that the bear was doomed. After a
few minutes longer of the struggle, as
the bear rested a moment, tho turtlo
plunged off into deep water, draggiu"
his prey under. As the bear went down
his hind legs kicked convulsively, but
in a very feeble way. The wa chers of
this ferocious encounter waited for an
hour, to see it the body of the bear
would be released, but nothing came up.
The next day, however, the fragments
of the beast wa-hed ashore, mutilated
aud cut all to pieces.

Why w iow.
One of the objects scoured by plowing
is a loose soil in which f o plant tho seed.
. curiam acgreo ot moisture and neat as
well as contact with the soil is necessary
toscciircgood germination of the seed,
and give tho plants a good opportunity
to grow. 1'low ing is tho most economi
cal method of preparing tho soil for
planting the seed. It also aids to lessen
tho work of cultivation.
Another object in plowing is to do
stroy weeds. Clean cultivation is an
essential to all cultivated crops; good
growth and yjuJ4i secured. If weeds
are plowed under beforo they mature
seeds, a largo number can bo destroyed.
Hy kccpini; iho surface clean, nlowino?.
hanowing and cultivating, the weeds can
be killed out, insuring a belter growth
of the plants aud a better yield.
l'lowinjT also aids materiallv in malt
ing available plant food already in tho
soil. The more the soil is stirred, nnd
tho liner tilth it is worked into, the larger
tho amount of fertility, l'loning deep
brings to the surface material that under

upon the soil and makintr it in better
condition to supply tho right amount of
piaut tooa to secure a good growth.
It is quite an item in securing a cood
growth of the plants to have a soil
through which the plants can penetrate
readily. It is fully as imnortMt . fci ev.kLi,tf r-.T,.,,,.,

cure moisture. A thoroughly plowed
field will retain more moisture than if
left undisturbed. It also aiiis to draw
moisture from tho subsoil by capillary
attraction. By plowing and stimuli the
soil moisture sullieient to keep up a good
growth of plants can be secured when
if left undisturbed, the plants will suffer
for want of proper moisture.
As plowing serves several good pur
poses, care should bo taken to do the
work thoroughly and in good season.
Farm, FicUl and Stockman.
Agricultural Value of Fertiliser
While it is important to the farmer to
know the commercial value of tho fertil
izers that he is obliged to purchase, it is
vastly more important that he should
know something of the agricultural
value. The commercial vuluo rousists
of the price that is required to bo paid,
while tho agricultural value consists of
the increased money value of tho crop
secured by means of tho use. Thoro is
really no direct connection between tho
two values, although in some cases thoy
may be approximately the same. There
may be a wider difference in the two
values in the cise of a manufactured
article than where pure chemicals are em
ployed. The principal elements of plant
nutrition are nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash, each of which exists in a
great variety of forms. The real value of
a fertilizer to tho farmer may depend
quite largely upon the design he has in its
use. If his purpose is to improve his soil,
having little regard for largo immediate
returns in the shapo of crops, ho
may with safety make uso of those that
are less available for immediate action
upon plants, or that require chemical
change before being fully available. But
if, on the contrary, no regard is had for
any improvement of tho soil, but rather
the effort is made to se ure tho greatest
crop possible with no regard to subse
quent etrects, then there could bean em
ployment of thoso fertilisers that would
be most available to plants or most active
in their effects. Experience has shown
that different nianmeal substances aro
very uplike in their activity, or rather
may exist under such unlike conditions
may exist unuer sum limine conaitions
of solubility as to produce very unlike
results. All elements of nlant food nfnit
be rendered soluble ia order to become
available forUse,and so while a sullieient
amount of any one principal element may
be supplied to produce an average crop,
it may be so insoluble as to produce an
entire failure, and in this determination
even the experiment stations are at fault.
A manufactured phosphato may con
tain a guaranteed amount of nitrogen,
and the station upon its analysis may
find it present, but fails either from nog
lect or inability (quite probably ftie lat
ter) to determine its source, or tho
orlg'nal condition of Us existence.
Where nitrogen exists as sulphate of
ammonia or nitrate of soda, it is in an
immediately available form and will bo
very largely, if not wholly, employed by
the growing crop; but if it exists in the
shape of horn scrapings, hoofs, old scraps
of leather, or woolen rags, it is in such
condition that it cannot be secured by
the growing crop in any desirable
quantity, and so is of uncertain value.
Kow, so far as a guaranteed amount of
nitrogen is concerned, it may exist in a
superphosphate; but it maybe of the
ouo form or the other, and nothing but
a field trial will satisfactorily determine
its value. Thero is very much yet to be
learned regarding fertilizers, a:id espe-i
ciutly those of a commercial importance j
It is a question deeply affect ins the
farmer's interest, regarding tha most'
economical form in which the fertilizer,
may be applied, if it becomes necessary
for him to resort to outside resources.
A considerable number of experiments
are being tried in various parts of Con
necticut by tho farmers themselves, under
the direction of the experiment stations,
to determine practically these questiousj
that are continually arising regarding
the economical s'de of fertilization.
Experience teaches that there is a great
difference in the ellects of different
brands of phosphates, and there is a
(.rowing desire to kuow why this dif
ference exists when the price varies but
little, The moie rational conclusion
would suggest the greater availability of
the ingredients iu one case than in the
other. Then if the farmer can be in
formed through the experiment statious
of the form iu which each exists, he will
be butter prepared to secure that which
he most desires.
But with all tho talk rejarding spe :iai
fertilizers the farmer should lemembei
that there is no more perfect fertilizei
than is provided in tho various mauurei
of the farm, and that his chief ellor
should be to provide all that he possibl;
can, resorting to special muuures only u
he is compelled from absolute necessity

better yield of butter when cows aro fed

bo fed enough to keep them in good

will pay for a good, gensrous ration of

When tho use of one kind of manure
is continued for several, weeks upon
house plants, the plungre civing it do
notiespond to its stimulating influence
as readily ns when it was tirst given.
When such is the caso give a few water
ings with Clearwater, and then apply
somo otljer IcTrm of manure, and health
aud vigor will be continued. -
Few farmers realie the amount which
an acre of grapes will bring if the crop
is a full one and prices aro very low.
Three cents a pound seems ridiculously
cheap, yet at this price an acre of any
productive variety will bringnjore money
than an acre of grain or an; kind of farm
crops. Two tons per acre is a ema'l
yield, but three cetita sr-fwtirul gives a
grots returifof if l.'O per acre.
The cause of cotted wool is the heat
ing of the lleece by the sheep lying
tlo.-ely together when tho wool is wet.
Warmth, moisture, pressure, and soap
cause wool to felt, aud cottiug is simply
the felting of the wool on the sheep's
back. It is avoided by keeping the sheep
In shelter during wet weather. The soap
required to complete the felting is pro
vided by the solution of the yolk of the
wool, which is really a soap, iu the water
held by the fleece.
Exposure to rain for a lengthened
period will cause serious injury to the
I kin of horses and colts. The skin he
ron. e9 covered with a hard, thick coat
ing, which consists chie.iy of the soft
tinderhair matted or clotted together.
This prevents healthful action of the
skin, which is thickened with a covering
iuf dead tissue, forming a hard crust.
This ihoutd be carefully loosened grad
ually by thorough currying and brush
ing. Tho way to prevent it is obvious.
, If red clover is cut for seed or is per
mitted to ripen seed on the ground it will
last for several years. When the seed it
produced the plant has completed its
functions and then the root peiishes, but
w hen it is kept mown or fed down it will
coutinue to grow. Naturally red clover
is a biennial plant and dies when it has
seeded the second year of its growth.
I he pea vine clover is a peienuial and it
the best of the clovers for pasture, but it
is not suituble for horses, as the lute
growth causes profuse salivation.

The Necessity of Salt,
Tho question of tho need of salt as
essential to health is being widely dis
cussed by scientists nnd medical men.
It has been claimed by many to bo good
for the blood and an aid to digestion.
A scientific writer now says that this is
not so, nnd that tho impoitanco ot salt
has been very much overrated. Mo
claims that instead of preventing seury
thov rssive use of salt produces scurvy.
Thai ho shows thnt thero nro many
iilaccs in tho world whero salt is not
Bown, and yet tho Inhabitants nro nil
very healthy. In uu.'.h Africa snlt is
very scarce, and only iho very wealthy
can afford to have it on their tables. Tho
poorer people who have never tnsted salt
are KlTvtry strong and healthy. Previous
to the disceAery of this country the In
dians nevef had salt, ai d in Iho present
day salt is not in use in Siberia. Many
say that the wholesomencss of salt is
proved by tho way in which animals ent
it. In parts of tho wor d whero salt is
not known antelopes abound in great
quantities, nnd instances -aro on rectird'
whero cnttlo and sheep hnve been rni-od
very successfully without tho uo of salt.
