Not long ago a New England elec
trical engineer, who accidentally got
. a needle stuck Into
MuKiiet- and
lilS le, twisted
Mlem. gome wires about a
piece of Iron and connected the wires
with a dynamo. Then with the magnet
thus made he pulled the bit, of steel
from the wound. About the same time
an apprentice in tin; Mare Island navy
yard in California was injured in tin!
face by some bits of steel from a broken
tool. The surgeon failed to extract all
the pieces and the wound Inflamed. Tha
chief electrician then improvised a mag
net capable of lifting 500 pounds and
held it in front of the boy's face, when
the remaining bit of steel flew out of
the wound as promptly as if it had been
sent for. Now, if someone would in
vent a magnpt that would pull slivers
out of a boy's lingers thousands of voting
Americans would rise and call him
blessed.

An official record of the achievement
of an adult crow in captivity shows
that in a single day tho bird devoured

u such good service that we have re
produced it, and give it for what it is
worth. We took a good sound 2x4 oak
scantling 15 feet in length, sawed It in
two In the middle, equal lengths. Out
of thes two pieces we cut the two up
rights of tho stretcher. Figure 1.
making thfm six feet long. Tlu
two short pieces left were pawel
16 Inches long and set Into gains
In tho uprights and bolted fast.
As shown In the illustration Inch holes
were bored to correspond In the upright
bars, the holes in the right bar being
sawed out to admit and remove the
crank shaft, for various height hs of wire.
An Inch rope 20 feet long is attached
to the inner end of the shaft, and a
good solkl hook fastened Into the other
end of the rope is brought hack and
hooked over the shaft just Inside the
crank. A common hay rope pulley is
nncpd iipn.l- rop- aid to this pulley
!s attached a wire clump secured at our
hardware store. Two hooks of heavy
rod iron were fashioned after the pat
tern at a, with threads cut and nuts
attached. These hooks are burred to

We omitted to mention that half inch

There is a fine irony in tho situation
of a counterfcltln!; plant in a peniten
tiary. Such quiet and solitudo offers
the very best opportunity for perfect
ing, undisturbed, a peacefuk business
undertaking.
Accepting a man at his own estima
tion of himself Is more foolish than
taking counterfeit money, because you
can occasionally pass along the latter.
Tha Belirlaa Hare Ilualnraa.
The Belgian hare craze has gone by,
after making comfortable fortunes for
some of those who took up breeding and
importing at the commencement of the
boom. The hare is now taking its place
largely as a meat producing animal, al
though the stories told about It In tkla
direction are greatly exaggerated. But
there is a small and possibly growing
demand for tho meat, which Is of high
quality. The hares attain market size
at about six months of age, but make
good eating at four months' old. As
they are as easily kept as sheep, and
the feed may bo very similar, they are
cheaply raised, and a pair or trio of
breeders may be profitably kept on
many places. Orange Judd Farmer.
There are few people who do not prom
ise themselves that they will reform

In 1'rnliR of Alfnlfa.
In an address delivered by li. S. Smith,
of Sherman, Tex., nt Texas Farmers'
congress, he said: "Of all the grasses,
that Is paramount above all others. All
kinds of religion have their times of re
vival the time is now on with the
farmer. We have an agricultural re
I vlval now on and the universal text Is
j alfalfa. The more we hear of it, the
I more we want to talk about It. The
horses and cattle love It ; the picturesque
goat leaps the fence for it; the pig
squeals for it. It makes the hens cackle
. and lay eggs. It Is even Bald that the
I Indians smoke It and the Mormons make
I tea of It. I don't believe that; but I do
know that It Is a calamity killer and a
, mortgage lifter."
