Hon Buzzards Kill Snakes. ■'l once observed," said Lamartin* Gibson to a St. Louis Globe-Democrat man, "what was to me a new and inter esting sijjht—that of a half-dozen buz zards killing a snake. It was years ago, when I lived as a boy down on a farm near Shcbnull, 111. One June morning 1 sat on a rail fence under a walnut tree, overlooking a field of growing wheat, when I observed high in the air two 01 three buzzards sailing about, just as lacy and delightfully smooth as one could imncinc, around and around in a circle. It was net long until several more arrived and then I counted a h«ilf dozen. They drew nearer from over a patch of woods and dropped near the ground in the next field. Ilere they circled about, everj now and then swooping close to the earth, and all at onee arose with a great, black, wriggling cord that lat once imagined must be a snake. The buzzard droppod the snake from about fifteen feet up and then dropped right after it and brought it up again. I jumped from the fence and ran across the field over neai where the battle, somewhat lopsidelv, was progressing. The half dozen buzzards were close to gether, taking turn about at the snake, carrying it aloft and then dropping it with a deadly thud. I thought at the time that a snake could not stand many falls like that, and so I grabbed a stick and ran near to where it last fell. My approach scared them away. One bird, however, made a swoop and gathered the snake by the back, but the beak grip was not strong enough and the ser pent fell to the ground. I reached there before the bird could swoop again, and stood guard over the remains. The snake was stunned to death. It was consider ably torn—a great, long black snako fully five feet in length and one and a half inches in thickness. I added a few blows with my club for assurance sake and then walked away to see if the buz zards would return. They had ascended high into the air, but they were still over the spot, circling about, awaiting my de parture. I drew off and tat down by the fence. Then they came down. One seized the reptile and sailed away, closely followed by the other live. It was a battle of birds then, and in the scrimmage the reptile was frequently dropped. The contest continued far over the fields and out of my vision." Clever Snrjnry. William Frey, who resides on Wash ington avenue, Newport, Ky., has a ten year old daughter who WHS alllicted with a compound club foot. The bones were twisted and the foot turned to such an angle that the girl walked on the side of her ankle and the toes pointed directly up. A local surgeon wes asked to do something. He opened the foot and re moved the boues, leaving a large hole in the foot. To remedy this the surgeon killed a large chicken, and taking the thigh bones sawed them to fit the spaces left by the removal of the foot bones. Antiseptics were applied, the incision closed aud sewed up, and after the foot had been placed in proper position it was made firm by splints find left alone. The other day the splints were removed, when it was found the chicken bones had grown to the human bone, and the foot is now both sightly and useful. It is said to be the first case of the kind on record.—St. Louis Republic. Hood's Cures Son of John L. Mc Murray Of Ravenswood, W. Va.

The habit of sheep in always follow iog their leader makes the jumping habit easy to acquire and hard to cure. Ever a barbed wire will not teach them cau tion, perhaps because their wool rathei than their skin is caught and torn by th< barbs. The safest way is not to lead sheep into temptation by poor fences. Better no fence at all and a shepherd dog than a poor fenco for sheep.—Boston Cultivator. LUHPY JAW IN CATTLE. Doctor De Salmon, Cbief of the Bur eau of Animal Industry of the Depart ment of Agriculture, returned to Wash, ington from Chicago, when he concluded the experiments which had been in pro gress in that city to test the-effect ol treatment of lumpy jaw in cattle. Eighty-five cattle were slaughtered, all of which had been affected with this dis ease, and sixty-eight wcro found to be completely cured. This is even better than the showing made when the first lot pf 100 animals were killed, which showed sixty-three per cent, of cures. Secretary Rusk stated that this completes the test and demonstrated the perfect success of the experiment, which, he says, will prove of incalculable benefit to the stock growers.—New York News. DISCARD THE USE OF THE WHIP. It is a noticeable fact that the most successful drivers of trotting horses sel dom use the whip. Even when hard fought races are on and sensational fin ishes are made the extreme limit of speed is secured without the use of the lash. There is a lesson in thi?, not only for the drivers of trotting horses, but for those who handle any kind of horses. With the proper training a draft horse will reach the limit of his power and ex ert every muscle in his body under kind treatment as quickly as he will when abused with the whip. A horse that will respond to the request for his best effort iu a kind way is one that can be depended upou under any and all cir cumstances. It is the fault of the driver in nine cases out of ten when the use of the whip is made necessary. When horsemen once understand that kind words are worth more to urge a horse to his full capacity in auy direction, the use of the whip will be very limited. Lewiston Journal. TAUGHT WITHOUT LOSS OF TEMPER. If this process were patented a fortune would be deserved by the discoverer, who has successfully practised it for years. Let the calf suck till three or four days old; then tie it securely to a post or stake with a short strap or rope. Pour about a pint of warm milk into a vessel in which the calf is to be fed, setting this vessel in a low square box near the calf, to prevent the milk bein<» tipped over. Direct the calf's attention to the milk by stirring it with the hand and putting a few drops to its mouth. Leave the calf alone and in a short timo the milk will be gone, and no more trouble will be experienced in teaching the calf to drink. Only a small quantity of milk should be used at first, as a calf always jams its nose clear to the bottom of the vessel in which it is fed and be gins to suck. The quantity should be increased, as desired, and it will soon learn to eat oilcake or millfeed, which should be given dry, not mixed with the milk, no danger of scours thus occurring. —Michigan Farmer. ORNAMENTAL HEDGES. /n most progressive towns it lias be come the custom to do away with fences, especially those dividing the street from the yard fronting the house. While it i* an open question whether or not this is good policy, we are creatures of imita tion and are very apt to follow our neigh bors. It is generally conceded, however, that there should be some dividing line between properties, and nothing is better suited for this purpose, or, in fact, for any place where a fence is wanted in city or town, than a hedge. California Privet is a favorite with me for hedging, and especially near the ocean where it is more or less difficult, on ac count of the sandy soil, to establish a hedge. California Privet is nearly or quite evergreen, its foliave being of a dark, glossy green, the plant a rapid and strong grower and with proper training makes a handsome hedge in a short time. Usually plants two years old and three to four feet high are best; my method is to plant in double rows, setting the rows and plants about six inches apart. This makec a dense hedge in two years. After planting cut back to within eight or twelve inches of the ground, which will cause the plants to grow more bushy. The privet is not a defensive hedge, and if one is needed to keep out stock or other trespassers it should be of Osage Orange or Cydonia Jaoomca (Japan Quince) both of which "have a thorny growth very unpleasant to come in con tact with. The Japan Quince is a flower ing shrub and is extremely pretty as a hedge if kept neatly trimmed. One trouble had with hedges is setting the plants too far apart; while they must not be set close enough to crowd each other out, the distance apart should be only that needed for proper growth.—The Housewife. TOMATO OROWING. Comparatively few farmers have the advantage of a greenhouse or eveu a hot bed to raise early plants for the garden. Tomatoes, the most prized of alt vegeta bles, make too slow growth for summer use unless they are started earlier than they can be putin the open ground. Many think this a difficult task, but they are of such easy culture that almost any farmer's wife cin raise a few plants in the house. A sufficient number to sup ply a family can bo started in a small pan, or even an old tomato can is large enough to grow a dozen plants. The seed should be putin by the first of February and placed in a south win dow. There they will germinate and make rapid growth if care is taken to remove them to a warm place during cold nights. In the first warm spell after the second leaves appear they should be tiausplanted to larger dishes, setting them two or three inches apart, where they can grow until time to plant in the open ground. This course is preferable to putting the seed in a larger box, for a small dish is more easily cared for, and tomatoes need transplanting to make them grow strong and stalky. Bet in rows and cultivate often with a knife. Care must be taken that they are not kept too wet, especially through cold spells, or they may damp off. Another necessary precaution is to give the young plants plenty of air and "outdoor exer cise" or they will grow too slender. Every pleasant day should find them out of doors in a sheltered location, and un dergoing a toughening process to enable them to withstand the hard winds which they must inevitably meet later. Ten days before putting out run a knife between the rows close to the plants, cutting the roots somewhat. This will check the growth of tops and start a new root growth. Roots should not be long and tapering, but a compact fibrous mass. Such plants cannot fail to live and will even bear setting out on a sunny day without cover. Do not be discouraged even if you have been unsuccessful with early tomatoes heretofore. Try again. Plenty of sunshine, plenty of air, plenty of water in dry weather and not too much in damp, will insuro plants that will repay the busy housewife for the care she has given them and supply the table with au abundance of delicious tomatoes in July instead of Sop' embor.—Nebraake Farmer. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Thuubergia mikes a fino appearance in banging baskets. Good words are g»id for both the Kan sas and Lovett raspberries. Great claims continue to be mado for the "all-head" early cabbage. The tent caterpillar and fall web worm ;an be easily destroyed by spraying. From the Southern and Middle States zomc good reports of the Glberta peach. Dwarf apple trees are obtainsi by grafting upon the Paradise and Dou :ian stock. Claims made for the Champion peach nclude hardiness, productiveness, largo size and tine flavor. Special farming is more piofitablo than general farming, as the latter divides the attention. The principal objection to using pul lets for hatching is that often they do not make good mothers. Ducklings are easier fed than chickens, is almost anything agrees with them, provided it is sweet and sound. The housewife may grow her parsley in a box in a warm cellar window; it jrows readily and requires but little acat. An advantage with ducklings over any >ther kind of young poultry is that thoy will thrive much better under confine uent. In many cases if the soft messes wore jaked and then crumbled tine before feeding the young chickens would thrive jetter. The soaner now the hens can bo in duced to sit the better the opportunity Tor profit, both with the young chickens tnd the matured fowls. Meat is needed only when tho fowls ire confined so that they cannot get insect food. When they have a good range feeding meat is rarely necessary. Dj not attempt too many poultry breeds at once unless you are prepared to keep them separate; promiscuous cross ing does not pay even on the farm. Much of tho farmer's success depends nn his wife. She should be his confidant in his business affairs, and her comfort should be a constant consideration. Before going into duck raising too largely, look after the market for them, »sin some localities it is difficult to sell them at a fair price, especially young ines. Many stock growers are now feeding split corn, by which is meant cora on the ear, split into slivers lengthwise of the cob, thus utilizing the whole aorn product of fodder, graiu and cob. Co-operative insect warfare is sug gested by ouo who believes in the feasi aility of a community obtaining some nan who knows something about insects, who should spray tho orchards and look ifter insect pests. Young blackberry shoots ought to bo summer pruned when about four feet high, to encourage the growth of later als, which in turn may be cut bsck when about eighteen inches in length, all of which will produce a stocky bush. "Success With Flowers" says: "Tiie red spider will not flourish in a room whose air is kept properly moist. Mois ture is his especial aversion. The only thing that will put hiin to rout is water applied freely and frequently. B8 sure to sec that it gets to all parti of the plant and especially the under side of the leaves." Factious in Suicides. "The mania for committing suicide i9 spreading to an alarming extent," re marked a Johns Hopkins professor a few day9 since. "I recall reading a predic tion," he continued, "that between the years 1885 and 1895 such an epidemic, if you call it that, would prevail owing to the planetary influences, and the facts seem to bear it out, whether the predic tion was based on supposititious grounds, or as a result of astronomical research. History tells us that at an early period in France so prevalent was the idea of self-destruction that the Government issued a decree that after a certain time the body of any man or woman guilty of taking his or her Hfe should be hanged in a public place and designated as that of a cowardly crim inal. The result of the edict was that thereafter the suicidal mania became unfashionable, and deaths from this cause were few and far between. It would appear to IBP, reviewing the his tory of the last few years, that some leg islation of the same sort must be enacted in America."—Baltimore Herald.

The capabilities of the Ojai valley in regard to citrus fruits cannot be better illustrated than by viewing a box of Washington navel oranges left at the Ojai office last Monday by W. E. Wilsie, whose ranch is the furthermost one at the eastern end of the valley. In the box were thirteen oranges, the entire crop of a two-year-old bud. The small est one of the oranges measured 10J inches in circumference, and weighed ten ounces; the largest one measured 12$ inches and weighed just one pouud. The total circumference of the thirteen oranges was twelve feet lour and three quarter inches; tho total weight nine pounds ten ounces. Old orange raisers know that this is precocious work for a tree two years old; it would have been robbed of its fruit early in the season if it had not been selected for an experiment. A close watch of this same tree will be kept next year, and results reported for the benefit of the public.— Nordhoff (Cal.) Ojai. She Dresses Docs. A dog tailor flourishes in Paris.
