Nebraska Man's 8tory of the Way He Killed the Grasshopp.rs. A gentleman who used to live at University place was growing wheat in southern Nebraska when the grasshoppers struck him. He had a forty acre field of wheat that year promising a big yield, and the pros pect of its having to go to feed his enemies, the grasshoppers, was gall ing almost beyond endurance. Very soon after the vanguard of the hop pers appeared, however, this gentle man made nn entomological discov ery that saved his crop. "I found," he said, "that the grasshoppers were in the habit of climbing the wheat stalks every morning to spend the day feeding on wuut, was lmenaea to leea me and my family. I used to go out to the field to see how they were getting on every morning, and in my impatience at me u Denies they were taking with' my wheat I would occasionally strike at a clumn of them as thev I hung to a stalk and knock them to the ground. "After awhile I noticed that when a grasshopper was thus dis lodged he made no further effort to get his dinner, but remained on the ground until the regular time to climb the stalk next morning. Im mediately on making this important discovery I went and took down our long wire clothesline and called my wife to come and help me. Then we went through that forty acre field, dragging the clothesline over the wheat between us, and knocked all the grasshoppers to the ground. There they stayed till the next day. .next morning we gave the hop pers just time enough to get well started up the stalks when we went out and repeated the proceeding of the day before. The result was the same, and in the course of a few days every grasshopper in that field had died of starvation. Our neigh bors came out every morning to jeer at us and called us a pair of old idiots, but we harvested the only wheat crop in that part of Nebraska that yea'r." Nebraska State Jour nal. THE USE OF INCUBATORS. The Testimony of Han Wao Ha. Learaed From Actual Experience. The Incubator bus several points of superiority over the hen, chief of which is being able to set It whenever the op erator wishes to. The commercial poultry' keeper who raises chickens and ducks by the hundreds or thou sands could no more do without an in cubator than he could without eggs. In addition to being able to control the period of batching, the Incubator saves much labor, for It is much less work to look after one machine hold ing 250 eggs than twenty hens cover ing the same number of eggs. Then, too, the chicks from the incubator start life without any companions in the way of lice, and if it is their mis fortune to be attacked later they have passed the most critical period of their lives and are better able to withstand the attack. But an Incubator will not ran itself, turn the eggs nor keep up tne neat without attention. It needs to be set level in a room where a fairly even temperature may be maintainea throughout the twenty-four 'hours of day, where it is free from drafts, whew the sun does not snine airecuy on a un nlan where there is good air. laewe conditions are generally best obtained In a house cellar, bnt many cellars art too damp and badly ventilated, and in that case an upper room, even a mt. la hetter. I have bad good success In running an Incubator in a north room on the flrat floor of the house, says a anondent of American Agriculturist The room was light, airy and well ven tilated. The temperature was rainy even, as tt did not get the sun at any time during the day, and altogether It proved aa almost Ideal place In which to run an-incubator. The machine was started In March, and three hatches mn ntt 130 ACTS being PUt ID each time. The eggs were tested the tenth day and again between tne ni teenth and eighteenth and all Infertile ones removed and those to which the hA died. The tnree turned out 240" chicks, or 2 per cent o (hs sirM nnt in. The lamp was filled and trimmed at night, for I had mote tune m 00 th.n in the morning, and the eggs were set out to cool while doing this. They were left out only few mmutes, then turned and pot back. In the morning the eggs were cooled from tea to thirty minutes, starting with tea minutes on the third day and gradnal- ty increasing tne am ee After Vfcr. turned before being replsced to the Incubator.

The breeding stock, to begin with, should bo a sturdy lot. Drakes should stand up rell-bo lofty fellows, with deep keel. Ducks should be broad and deep, rather than long, but have length of body If you can without detracting irom otner qualities. When I want them to begin laying I give extra grain rations of corn and wheat with their everyday feed of cooked potatoes, made stiff with bran and aborts and a little salt added. For a change raw carrots and cabbage are excellent Always have water and grit in a cer tain place easy for them to get at Ducks, if allowed, will do a great deal of foraging if they are sure of a drink when In need of It. In my ten years' experience with ducks I find that let ting them have access to a pond of wa ter Insures fertile eggs, while those de prived or swimming ao not lay as many eggs, and fertility cannot be de pended on. A feed once . a week of browned corn on the cob Is an excellent appetizer. American Agriculturist Handlfnar Lov.7 Ren..

Rev. Dr. Frank D Witt Taimage, Presbyterian. EQUIPPING A CREAMERY. Some Praetieal gaaaeat!oaa Reaard iasr aattarniaMaa Plaata. The keen competition in all lines of business makes it necessary to look for the most improved and economical methods. In building and equipping a creamery there are many details to be considered In order to lessen the cost of manufac ture and at the same time produce uniform and superior article of butter. The creamery should be located as nearly as possible in the center of milk producing district, and it is very essential to have a sufficient number of cows to make the venture profits ble. The material to be used In the con structlon of the building Is a very Im portant factor. Although the first cost is a trifle greater, a brick building Is the most sanitary and, in the long run, cheaper than If wood were used. Whether the walls be of brick or wood, they should be placed upon solid foundation of rock, which should be placed below the surface far enough and be of sufficient width to Insure against settling. It is very difficult to keep the machinery running properly If the building settles first on one side and then on the other. Every creamery should have a sani tary and substantial floor. Cement seems to fill all the requirements and, if properly constructed, Is much supe rior to wood, but a cement floor poorly made Is not much preferable to no floor at all The principal objection to the cement floor la that It Is too cold and damn for the operator's health, and this dl faculty can be almost or entirely overcome if the proper precautions are taken in Its construction. When it Is necessary that the floor be of wood, tt Is a good plan to have the Joists quite close together, so the floor can be firm ly nailed to prevent warping. The flooring should be dressed and well matched and from one and a half to two Inches In thickness. Whatever material Is need to construction It should have a slant toward a drain. tt would be rather difficult to say what dimensions a creamery building ihould be to suit all conditions, but whatever such may be the working rooms should be small and compact and conveniently arranged in order to' save labor to keeping the factory clean. The planning should be left to a person who baa had experience to that line of work and should be so arranged as to be most suitable for that particular sit uation. ' For instance, to some localities a fac tory receives only milk, to soma only cream, and In still more nowadays It has become necessary to take both. The requirements In each case would be different, and for that reason tt Is Very essential thst the supervision be left to a practical man. Both building and machinery should be so arranged as to be most convenient to operate and easily kept dean. Tbe machines should be so placed as to avoid tbe use of lone cood actors and tbe pipes have as few Joints and angles as possible. In selecting pipes for that purpose care abound be token tnat tney ne smooth Inside and none be need that is not galvanised. Even though the distance ia very abort, robber bx abonld never be need for conducting milk or cream. Creamery Journal.

Clarens, Switxerladd, July 14. Paul Kruger, former president of tbe Transvaal Republic, died here at 3 o'clock this morning from pneutn o nia and supervening heart weak ness. Mr. Kruger lost his con sciousness Monday. His- daughter aod son-in-law were with him at the timeot bis death. He had been out only once since hisaarrival here, at the beginning of last month. 1 he ex-president s body was em balmed, and this afternoon the re mains were placed in a vault, pend ing funeral arrangements. Applica tion will be made to the British gov ernment for authority to transport the remains to the Transvaal. In the meantime they will be temporari ly interred here. Mr. Krujrer. who was staying at the Villa Du Boichel, had been gradually failing for a long time, but he was able to attend to aftaire, read the newspapers and receive visits until Saturday. A change for the worse set in Sunday. He be came unconscious Monday and re mained so until his death. Besides the Blofis, Mr. Kruger was tend ed by his own physician, Dr. Hey' mann. and by his secretary. Mr. Redel. On several occasion Mr. Kruger had expressed a desire to be buried beside bis wife in his own country. At seven years of age Mr. Kruger was shooting big game ; at eleven he killed his first lion ; when thirteen years old he was fighting with his father against the blacks; and at seventeen he held his first public of fice as magistrate. He was born October 10, 1825, and his grandfather, tbe first settler of the family in South Africa, came, not ftom Holland, but- from Ger many. The name in the Transvaal is pronounced Kreeger, and is written Krnger, and not with tne umlaut, ss some American and English news nanera write it. Like Joubert. the Boer general, he was a Cape Colon ist, by birth, baying been born at Eastenburg, in the Colesburg dis trict of the colony. He was only ten years of age when bis parents, moved thereto by what they regard ed as tbe unjustifiable interference of the British government with their slaves, migrated northward with some five or six thousand of their compatriots into the unexplored veldt. The tales of Kruger youth are well nigb past belief. He himself wmiches for his ability when a boy to stand on bis bead on tbe back of a galloping horse, and the stories of his skill with firearms and of bis strength are on a par with bis feats of horsemanship. He stood six feet high, weighed 226 pounds, and hie depth of chest and breadth of shoulder were those of a Colos sus. He bad the rode brute strength of an ox, and a yarn cur rent and universally believed in tbe Transvaal baa it that be once killed a wild buffalo by holding his head in a pool of water until the beast was strangled. , CHILDREN CONCERT. gecood Toar of tbe Oxford Orpbaa Aeylam Ooaoerf Ctoes loot. The first tour this year of the Sing ing Cum from tbe Oxford Orphan Asylum was completed July 2nd. n all respects the trip was most srjcceesful, probably the best yet made by the Class in tbe eastern section of tbe State. The program rendered by the bright, well-trained boys and girls Is very attractive and it has been en thusiastically received everwhere. The good people of North Carolina an always ready to aid liberally this gnat and important work the care and training of homeless, orphan children. Even if these concerts re not for such a cause they would merit and secure the liberal patronage of oar people.

After stay at Oxford of about thiee weeks, th Class will, on July 26th, start vpon Us second tour, which will be mostly through mid dle and western North Carolina. Friends of the orphan child are asked to again give their active co operatioo to the Mason who are faithfully working to mak th con certs a greater success and biesaing this year than ever before. i 1904. The Personality of Judge Parker. Progressiva Farmer. Of the home life, habits, and tem perament of Judge Parker, the coun try is now pretty thoroughly in formed, but as to his political con victions, aside from his having always voted the Democratic ticket, practically nothing is known. De claring that a judge should not meddle with politics, he has main tained an unbroken silence through out the campaign and not until his letter of acceptance is read will his personal views on the great political issues be known. Even during the convention last week, he stayed on his farm at Esopus and appeared to be as much Interested in the crops as in politics. What is really known of the Dem ocratic candidate may be summed up in this fashion: He Is a man of unblemished character and so trust ed that at times the Republicans have refused to nominate a candi. date in opposition to him. Bom near Cortland, N.Y., in 1852, be worked on his father's farm until be was sixteen years old, when he began teaching. He intended go ing to college but the financial con dition of the family would not per mit it, and he obtained only a legal education at Albany Law School. In 1884 he was chairman of tbe Democratic State Executive Com mittee when David B. Hill was elected Governor. ' A Supreme Court judge dying, Hill appointed Parker to fill the vacancy, and he has been on tbe bench ever 'since, having nothing to do with politic s. Judge Parker is a real farmer. Says James Creelman; At the end of every week and during the sum mer vacation Judge Parker is to be found on his picturesque farm at Esopus, which overlooks the Hud son River. He has three farms in New York State one of 150 acres at Accord another of 150 acres at Cortland and still another of 60 acres at Esopus. He manages these three farms and makes them, on tbe whole, pay. He Is no dilettante stranger to the' country, playing with agriculture as with a toy, but a real farmer, who direct the work, superintends the plowing and in harvest time, goes out in his shirt sleeves to work with his men in the hay and sorghum. At St. Louis a few weeks ago, we asked a distinguished New York Editor not a Democrat as to the general impression in New York as to Judge Parker's character. ' 'Par ker," be replied, "is a man whose integrity nobody doubts, and who is also regarded as a man of real strength of character. I do not think that bis silence is due to tim idity or that he will be under the domination of Hill. While he will be governed by his party's platform of principles, he will have no per sonal boss if be is elected President. n fact, tbe lawyers tell me that so far from being a tool, be measures more nearly up to Samuel J.

Mr. Cleveland's laeeme. J alto Chambers. Mr. Cleveland is in very moderate drcamstances. Tbe expenses of Princeton borne are kept carefully within bounds. Tbe expensive summer bom at Buzzard's Bay has been exchanged for one of much less sise. I have beard rumor that Mr. Cleveland seriously contemplated returning to New York and resum ing th practice of law, but a friend of th former Chief Magistrate who visits bim frequently, declare tbe rumor wholly unfounded. He says Mr. Cleveland managed to save nearly 1100,000 from bis eight year salary when in th Wbite House, that he made aome money from his land prircbasea at Red Top, and that these sums are so invested as to produce about 110,000 a year. This modest mm entirely satisfies tbe wants of tbe family. The Duke branch of the American Tobacco "Company shipped a firm in Chicago, Wednesday, 75,000 pounds of Duke's Mixture smoking tobacco.

A Qeed Plan for Town Beys. Raleigh Times. Every boy brought up in town ought, if it is pratioable, be sent out to the country at this season and let him spend some time with boys who go to bed with the chickens and get up before they come down from their roost. It will help them to drive up the calves from the pasture milk the cows, pick up apples and pull weeds for the hogs, rid horse or a mule bareback to the field get an introduction to a cotton boe and learn to side a row of cotton. The town boy who will do this will make some friends who will stay with bim as long as he lives. He will not only make friends, but will make customers for his business, whatever that may be, and learn some valuable lessons in the mean time. North Carolina News.
