A strange tale of the sea is contained
in an old logbook owned by United
States Cqpmissioner R. U. Folger, of
Uassillon, Ohio, and which was recent
ly exhibited there. It relates to the
discovery o'' the surviving mutineer of
the Bounty on Pitcairn island. Tb'i
was one of the most talked of crimes
on the high seas in.the latter part of
the eighteenth century. The logbook
is that of the Topaz, commanded by
Capt. Matthew Folger, father of Com
missioner Polger. Under date of Feb.
1, ifcis eritrj'app&tS in i£T
o'clock a. m. BBW Pitcairn's island,'bear
ing south. On approaching tHfe shore,
saw smoke, at which I was surprised,
as the island was said to be uninhabit
ed. I discovered a boat paddling
toward me with three women in her. I
weut ashore and found an Englishman
named Alexander Smith, the only per
son remaining out of nine that escaped
on board the ship Bounty. Smith in
formed me that after sending Capt.
Blight adrift, Christian, their chief,
proceeded with the ship to Otaheiti.
There all the mutineers chose to stop,
except Christian, Smith and seven
others, who took wives, and also sijc
men as servants, and proceeded to Pit
cairn's island, where they ran the
Bounty off shore and broke ber up.
This took place in the year 1790. Soon
after one of the party drowned himself,
another died of fever, and after they
had remained about four years on the
island, their men servants rose up and
killed six of the masters, leaving only
Smith alive. However, he and the
widows arose and put .all the servants
to death, which left him the only sur
viving man on the Island, with eight
or nine women and several small child
ren. He lives very comfortably as
commander-in-chief of Pitcairn's island.
Whatever may have been the crimes or
errorB
of Smith the mutineer, be is at
present a worthy man, and may be use
ful to navigators who traverse this im
mense ocean."—Chipago Record.

/i Ruined in Oalfhood.
Many a promising dairy animal has
been ruine in calfhood by receiving
beef calf treatment. Skimmilk, oat

must be fed with a great deal of judg
ment.—Live Stock.
Fall Calving
Experience proves that an average
cow calving in the fall will give
milk. a year than oo« that comee

ifc the flow ofr milk 1B maintained
through the winter by liberal feeding
and the cows are turned out on good
pasturage in the spring they will not
shrink in their milk, bat will rather in

word is already accepted to some ex

there must have use for such a word,
and must know how the thing feels!
Yet it must be admitted that America
takes the lead in this race for death,
for with us the disease is both epidemic
and endemic. If we count all who are
more or less affected—men, women and
children, Including the downright in
sane and all who are chronically "tired"
we must number the victims of ner
vous prostration by the millions. The
causes Are various and obviqps. Our
educational processes are pushed rather
hard, with resulting headaches and loss
of sleep. Business men are kept
under strain by competition, and by
their own eagerness to "get on." Politi

Dairy Constitutions.
Professor T. L. Haecker of the Min
nesota experiment station states in
Hoard's Dairyman that so far as his ex*
periencels concerned the highly bred
dairy cow is no more subject to disease
than the dual purpose types. A few
years ago, when the tuberculin test was
first applied to the cattle at this station,
says Professor Haecker, both the dairy
and the beef herds were in charge of
the writer, and when the first test was
made every animal in the beef herd,
save one, responded to the test, not
withstanding the fact that three of
them were big chested Polled Anguses,
while of all the dairy, animals only one
waB found tuberculous, and that one
was Tricksy.
Before she came to Minnesota she
had made the fair circuits for three
years and had been exposed to the
disease more than would have Jaeen
the case had she remained at home.
Such cows as Prideof Evergreen,
Dora, Bettje B. Sweet Brier and
others never contracted the disease,
though they were of the thin neck
ed, narrow chested sort that cause
our frtends who write so voluminously
about stamina, heart girth and lunp
capacity so much alarm. The records
show that the liability to contract dis
ease can be closely measured by the
amount of tissue in the body. The
germ of tuberculosis is* liable to find a
lodgment in any tissue of the body,
and, other things being equal, the more
tissue the greater the liability to con
tract that or any other diseace. It fol
lows therefore that with a spare cow,
having little fiesh, there is less liability
to contract tuberculosis. We also find
tbac a spare cow will longer successful
ly contend with the disease than is the
case with those having more substance
for the germ to feed upon.
Of all the cattle that were at the
Minnesota station in 1891 there is only
one left, and that IB Champion'B Swoet
Brier III, She has given UB a calf
every year since she has been at the sta
tion, is now in calf and doing most ex
cellent work in the dairy. She is ap
parently in most excellent health and
good for several years of work. Every
milking has)'been*'weighed and tested
since tho day she arrived at the station,
and during the last six yeare every ra
tion has been weighed out to her and
the amount and kind of feed recorded.
Her average per cent was for 1892,5.1
1893, 5 1894, 4.9 1895, 4.98 l«Wi, 5
1897 5.35. It is our aim to let her do
about as she pleases. Some years she
seems disposed to do more work than
others, has a better appetite and gives
more milk. Unfortunately she got
into the habit of dropping bull calves
until last year, but this year she gave us
two fine heifer calves, which we hope
to keep in the_ herd during their life
time.
up
nights to discuss social problems. Even
our noblest aspirations for knowledge
and excellence crowd UB to excess. The
days are never long enough for half we
want to do, to get or to enjoy. And
the peril is not lessened by our trying to
brace our faltering forces or to whip up
our jaded nerves by a resort to stimu
lants. Yet it is not work simply that
is raveling us out. It is the way we
take it—our medtal attitude toward
life and the world. It is fuss and fret,
hurry and work. Both in underwork,
as in overwork, one may allow himself
to be consumed by inward fever. We
need to cultivate serenity, contentment,
"the heart at leisure ftom itself." The
secret of gaining "power'through re
pose" is needed not only for recovery,
but for prevention. To spend beyond
our income—that is the way to bank
ruptcy.—£x,

Why Not Sow Wheat This SpringF
Tho time is near at hand when
you should begin seeding. The
wheat question has not received
the attention the past few years
that it should. There is a large
demand for good wheat the year
round, and a number of fanners
were fortunate in sowing a few
acres of wheat last season, with a
good yield, which brought them a
snug sum of money.'
It pays to sow wheat and there
is no reason why you cannot sow
a few bushels and be well paid for
it. We are quite anxious to have
lots of wheat sown this year, and
have therefore made arrange­
ments for a car of choice spring
seed wheat, which we will let go
at cost in order to further the in­
terest in the matter. *Think this
over and, if possible, put a lew
acres into wheat.
