THE YOUTH'S COMPANION. 195 Columbus Avnnue, Boston, Mass. Stockmen in Nebraska are beginning to know how important it is to have an ac quaintance with the best methods of rendrfruig stock immune against diseases to which cattle and swine in our state are peculiarly liable. The importance of a knowledge of the anatomy and phy siology of farm animals is also making itself felt. Ijiisses amounting to thous ands of dollars lire frequently met with because of not having such knowledge as is mentioned alio e. The cost of attend ing the School of Agricl.llure, which Isigan last Monday, is less than 01m hundred dollars per year. Tho subjects named above are thoroughly taught. Stockmen would do well to have their sons attend. Students will be admitted for two weeks after the opening day. University News liijtter.

Ih-tk yuiiTitlllm Ara I'ne.l ia TM-, t'on.itry Kvery War, "Tlie Amr-rlcp.n cjle sre evidently very 1'OTid or chocolate, for ther-? a;e about 12,tiou,000 pounds o; the -commodity consumed in the United flatus annually," said a large wholesale deal er in chocolate beana In Bobtoii to a winter for thR. Star recently. ''Two thirds or the chocolate Imported Into this country Is purchased by chocolate H'.auufacturers m MassachusfUa and the rest ia distributed among ihe nu merous, candy linns in New Vo. k, lJhii adelphfa and elsewhere. 'I here arc turee principal grudes or chocclate which are known in the tr.de as thp Caracas, the French and the German. Of these three varieties the Caracas i considered the best. The color of the. Caracas chocolate Is a pale brown, la flavor it Is much stronger than the French or German article. To test the quality of chocolate it Is only neces sary to put a piece or it In a pan or water and let It dissolve. The better grades will have no sediment; th? others will. . This Is due to the fact that In the cheaper varieties the shell Is ground up and used as a tiller. The lighter tho chocolate the better thp quality. The cheaper grades are dark brown, owing to the ground-up shell. One or the largtht cocoa plantations in the world is located In Nicaragua. K Is owned by a Krench tirm, whose chocolate Is known all over the world. Their works at Nolsel turn out about 40,000,000 pounds of chocolate a year, and their employes number 1,500. The tinfoil in which the cakes of chocolate are wrapped costs alone $100,000 per annum. The possibilities of cocoa cul tivation in Central America are not yet fully realized outside of France. When they are there will be a big: 'boom' for lands suitable for the pur pose." Washington Star. r.-rfeetty Preposterous. When the late Hon. P. H. Winnton f.rst attended court in Tyrrell county, North Carolina, after beginning to practice, he etopped on his way thither to Rpend the night with a brother law yer, then In full practice, who, in re construction days, obtained a judgeship nnd the title of "Jaybird" Jones, says the Now Yo-1'. Telegraph. To entertain his young friend, Jones on said ccca tlon discoursed largely of law, and B.cong other tnnuirles put this question to young Winston: "I have," said he, marking the lines on the floor as ho proceeded, "this land case. Beginning at A and running to It, my course and polcage (distance) is all right, and the same from U to C and C to D; but in running from I) to the beginning at A, my course Is all right, but my pole 11 go overruns. Now, why can't I benrl 1 out and get my poleage?" "Well," said 1 Winston, looking Intently at the dia gram, "no reason at all, except this fellow out here, a miserable sinner, ; might say: 'Why don't you bend In ' 6n,i y0ur poleage?' Ah!" said 1 Jones, In a passion, "that Is prepostor- ous, sir; perfectly preposterous! 1 I I'limlire of St. Lout.

Potatoes grow large and fifty to a hill in Washington and one of the varieties turned out there is the' Bur bank, which attains to a size three times as largo as the variety in Michi gan of that name. It has not paid to ship them east, paying the high rail road tariffs, and consequently they have been a drug on the market. Here after, however, they are to be sliced and dried, and in this condition they can be sent east, and also to the is lands of the Pacific. An evaporating and preserving factory, has been set up at North Yakima and for use in It the company ordered a potato peeling ma chine from Germany. It is said that Ihe capacity of the machine, which is cperatcd by steam, Is three tons a day. The plant is capable of consuming six tons of raw potatoes daily and a sec ond machine will soon be put in. The manager estimates that ho will con sume at least 100 tons of Yakima Bur banks this season. Several women and girls are employed in the work at wages ranging from 75 cents to more than double that amount a day. They are paid by the quantity peeled, sliced or spread on trays, thus making the wages depend upon the individual ex er.ions of the wage earners. The po tatoes are peeled raw and after slicing very thin are placed in trays and cooked by steam. This removes the water, estimated at about 80 per cent of the tuber, and leaves the solid3 or nutriment In the slices. They then go through the drying process, which is on the principle of dry steam heat, the pipes passing through the evaporator near each row of trays. The evapo iating apparatus in the North Yakima plant contains over one mile of pipes carrying the heat to the trays. A wire ecieen is kept over each tray during the drying to prevent dirt from set tling upon the sliced potatoes. Chica go Chronicle. j fSHllroua urnveyard. What is called a railroad graveyard has been established by the New York Centra! at Rochester. Hundreds of cars, put out of service by wreck or condemnation, are there torn apart and destroyed. The work requires not only physical strength, but mechanical training. The man must submit to the strain of hammering, pulling rivets and untwisting, which Is Imposed upon him, without complaint. It requires endurance, patience, skill, strength and activity to be a railroad car under taker. Old-Age I'ennlonn In Uuasln.
