Making the cat act as a plumbing
Inspector was the ingenious feat of a
Phidladelphia woman , eaj's the Record ,
of that city. This woman had noticed
that one of the pipes connected with
the washstaud in her bnthroom leaked ,
lid she wished to locate the leak pre
cisely without tearing out any more
of the wall than was needful.
She shut her cat up in the room di
rectly below the bath-room , and in the
basin of the defective wash-stmd : she
poured a vial of the oil of valerian.
Cats are excessively fond of the odor
of valerian. After the cat had been
in the room a few minutes it began tc
purr. Puiring , it crossed the room , set
tied itself on the floor with its face
to one spot on the wall , and here its
misiiess found it when she came inl *
the room , its nose glued to the spot
Knitting and purring ecstatically.
TIif wail was opened at that point
and there , sure enough , the leak was
for : d. The valerian had trickled
h at that point , to the delight
of t.i ! cat.

ALL CROPS GOOD IN WESTERN
CANADA.
"Potatoes the Finest I Ever Saw. "
Owing to the great amount of inter
est that is being taken in Western
Canada , it is n-ell to be informed of
some of the facts that are bringing
about the great emigration from por
tions of the United States.
The Canadian government have au
thorized agents at different points , and
the facts related in the following may
be corrolK > rated on application. At the
same time they will be able to quote
you rates and give you certificates en
titling you to low rates on the differ
ent lines of railway. The following
letter , copied from the North Bend
( Xeb. ) Eagle , is an unsolicited testimo
nial , and the experience of Mr. Austen
is that of hundreds of other Americans
who have made Canada their home si
during the past seven or eight years.

"All crops were good here this sea

but no exception to the rule , as the
fall season is , I think , the most pleas

Kxercise f > r Sheep.
Sheep will stand considerable steady
cold , but shiver under wind and are
particularly susceptible to dampness.
The plan of cooping sheep up in cl "s
warm quarters with little or no ven
tilation is not a good one. See that
their quarters are comfortabe by all
means , have them drj' and fairly
warm , but have them well ventilated
without drafts. Then provide a shed ,
have it attached to the pens if pos
sible , open on one end except for what
fencing is necessary to keep them in ,
and let them run under this cover
daily. If they are not inclined to take
the exercise make them do it , and see
that they are provided with some clean
roughage to munch while in the shed.
Be careful and not give them so much
that they will spend their time eating
instead of moving about. Water
should be supplied abundantly.
Try and locate the shed so that the

Milk Adulteration. la
While the ordinary methods of milk
Alterations are easily detected by
pert ] examiners , it is reported that
French chemist , Dr. Quesnevllle , has Is
ade some experiments that point to IsUl
e probability that for some time
ere has been practiced a form of
Bl

ingham Daily Mail it is explained scy
at the deficiency of fats , whether y

itraction of fats , has been covered Cl

"When to Market Hogs. gc
A well established fact in counec- ar
in with feeding hogs and that ap-
les with equal force to cattle and th
eep Is that a young animal makes the
-etter use of its food than does a
mature one. In other words , the soon
er a hog is made ready for market
up to six or eight months of age the
cheaper the pork can b ? produced. Tula
has been demonstrated time and again ,
and still many people will persist in
continuing to feed long after the
most profitable feeding period has
passed. Oregon Experiment Station.
Raising Pigs for Marlcet.
Those who have experimented have
found that there is much more profit
in raising pigs from the surplus milk
from the dairy than in selling that
milk to factories where different arti
cles are manufactured from by-prod
ucts. For a number of years past
there has been an ever-increasing de
mand for pigs of light weight , those
weighing from 100 to 125 pounds being
preferred , and such pigs can be raised
on the surplus milk product with a lit
tle added grain at very small cost.
If one will figure this cost , deduct it
from the price received for the pig and
put this computation against the re
ceipts from the by-product of milk
sold to factories they will readily see
the profit in the pig. If one is located
near large markets there Is much more
profit in raising light weight pigs than
heavy hogs ; the cost of feeding is not
so great , while the price per pound
received is much more. This question
is well worth looking into particularly
if one has a dairy.
New Type of Horse.
It is gratifying to know that at lat
some experiment stations are begin
ning to be conscious of the fact that
they ought to do something toward de
veloping strictly American types of
horst-s other than racers. The Colorado
station has inaugurated the work of
dcve'oping a carriage horse that will
come nearer filling the requirements
of that class of horses in this country
than any now known. The trotter is
to be the starting point , and by caren
ful and intelligent selection , and mat-
ing c somewhat heavier and more gymv
metrical horse is expected to evolve
and at the same time retain the stay-
ing qualities of the trotter and ss
much of his speed as is desirable In a
good , utility carriage horse. This Is a
work of years , of course , but is ccr-
tain of final success if the work Is well
done. Past success in creating new
types of cattle , hogs and sheep shows
what may be done with horses.

LITTLE YET KNOWN OF CON
DITIONS IN PoRF ARTHUR.
Japs Transposing Stoessel's Foldicrs

Two weeks have passed since the
fall of Port Arthur. The Japanese
have i been marching the Russian sol
diers out "preparatory to embarking
them as military prisoners for Japan ,
and they have been policing the city.
As yet , however , we have been permit
ted to hear little of the conditions that
existed in the fortress during its last
.
daj-s of Russian power.
Nevertheless , among the facts that
have come to us through General
Nogi's official dispatches to his govern
ment there is at least one which has
been a surprise to observers of the war
In every part of the world , and which
necessitates a decided change in our
ideas of the conditions of the siege.
It is contained in the brief phrase : "Of
the rank and file of the army , 22,434. "
The 22,434 were the Russian private
soldiers still able to bear arms at the
time of the surrender. The naval
forces are not included , nor are the
sick and wounded in hospitals. This
is double or even triple the number of
soldiers that it was supposed remained
to Stoessel for the defense. Moreover ,
it indicates that he had a much larger
garrison at the start than was suspectj
ed. The usual estimate of the forces
under arms in Port Arthur at the be
ginning of the siege was 30,000 sol-1
diers and 10,000 sailors. But now , in
cluding wounded , there must be at
least 30,000 soldiers left , to say noth-1
ing of sailors. Stoessel himself , in
the last dispatch he sent to the Czar
before the surrender , said piteously :
"Only one-quarter of the garrison is
alive. " If he was speaking accurately ,
that means that he originally had 320-
000 men under him , or more than
General Nogi has ever used in the in
vestment , but the figure is too great
to be credible.
However , the bare fact as to the
number of surrendered soldiers makes
it j | necessary to estimate at higher
value than ever General Nogi's great
achievement. Whether it lessens the
honor } that has been attributed to Gen
eral Stoessel for his splendid defense
.
cannot , however , be told till we know
what supplies of ammunition and food
remains available at the end.
Return of the IJaltic Fleet. '
The fall of Port Arthur is followed '
,
by a statement which is unofficial , but
is said to be trustworthy , that the
Baltic fleet now at Madagascar is to
return to European waters. If that
be so the question arises as to the rea-
son for sending it to the east If it
was sent in the hope that it might
reach Port Arthur before its surren
der , the Russians must have been ill-
informed as to the resisting capacity
of the fortress. |
It may be that the original intention
was that the Baltic fleet should go to
the Pacific regardless of what happen-
ed to Port Arthur , but that it has now
been decided that the tleet is not
strong enough to be depended on with
certainty to get the better of the Jap-
anese , and that it is expected to send
to the Pacific the entire available Rus-
sian navy. A fleet can be sent a few
months hence which will be much
stronger than the one commanded by
Admiral Rojestvensky.
In the meantime the Japanese can
refit < their vessels at leisure and pre
pare in every way possible for the
struggle which awaits them at a later
day. It hardly can be assumed that
the Russians will make no effort to
wrest from the Japanese the control
of the seas. So long as they retain it
it will be impossible for the Russians , i 1
10 matter how large the army they
put in the field , io force their ad-
versaries out of Manchuria.
The situation on the Shakhe River
remains practically unchanged. The
reports of a flanking movement by the
Japanese on their right flank have not !
been confirmed. Now that Port Arthur.
has been disposed of most of General
Nogi's veterans will be available for
service in northern Manchuria. It willt
not take much time to transport them
there. But even with these re-enforce
ments it is doubtful if General Oyama
will attempt an active winter cam
paign against a strongly intrenched I
enemy , who must have about 225,000 ,
men , and who should be receiving
steadily re-enforcements sufficient to
make good his daily losses.
There are no indications of peace.
The Russian government has an
nounced < that it will prosecute the war
with increased vigor , and that 200,000
fresh troops will be sent to General
Kouropatkin before the end of Febl
ruary. This Is a promise of desperate
fighting when spring begins and the
roads become passable. The Russian
government will expect Kouropatkin
take the offensive and force back
the Japanese by outfighting or ouf-
mnneuvcring them.
F. A. Bridgman , the American artist

modal awarded him by the Louis

When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed , Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism.
Hundreds of people afflicted with rheu
matism have spent years uuder tlio ca.ro
of excellent physicians in vuin. Then
thoy have settled down to the conviction ,
that it is fastened on them for life. Mrs.
Dinsinore was not willing to join tho
ranks of the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her.
Here in her story :
"Four years ago I suffered greatly
with rheumatism in my hands nnd
knees. After I had been sitting a while
my limbs seemed so heavy I could hardly
walk on the first attempt. So long as I
kept moving I was all right , but just as
soon as I stopped , something seemed to
settle in my knees nnd iiiiike them ache.
My hands were so bud I couldn't touch
the palms of them on a flat surface ; they
were swollen nnd pained so. "
"Did you call in a physician ? "
"I doctored steadily for over n year ;
then one doctor said : ' You have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything. ' Still , it did not kill nie iior
the rheumatism. "
" How , then , did yon get rid of it ? "
"At different times I htd read in vari
ous publications about Dr. Willianjs'
| wonderful Pink Pills for Palo People ,
nnd I finally decided to try them. I took
them steadily for four mouths in. ac
cordance with the directions. By that
time I was completely cured. "
"Have you bcjn free from it ever
since ? "
" Since then I have had but one slight
return of my trouble , and a box or two oi
the same pills made me all right again. "
Mrs. F. A. Dinsniore lives in hearty
enjoyment of her recovered health at
"Woburu , Mass. , entirely freed from tha
grave anxieties that rheumatism always
| brings. When it appears in but a singla
joint it shows that the blood is in a faulty
state in the whole body. It may at any
moment break out elsewhere , and one of
the dangers is that it may break out in
[ the heart and then the result must be
fatal. The only security is to keep the
i blood all the time in a perfectly sound
condition.

blood. All other relief is superficial.
This is thorough. These pills are sold
by all druggists.

all your treasures that appeal to that
momentary interest ? It is not a bad.
plan. But the possibilities of arrange
ment are endless , and we all have our
favorite plans. I wonder if there is any
book lover who can refrain from put
ting in one row his most attractive
bindings ? the gay , glided leather co\--
ers that make a little court of nobili
ties ? If there is any reader who can
refrain } from this harmless pageantry ,
he ] must be the owner of an unusually
logical mind , or else lacks the soul of
