HANDLING THE BREEDING EWES, When sheep are left to their natural Inclinations they seem to bring forth their young in February, as a rule, but some scatter along from December to June. says the Iowa Homestead. The period of gestation is about 153 days. When Iambs are born in winter they should have a dry, warm brood pen. but after two or three days they should be put in an airy pen connect- , eel with a sunny yard and other ex- pecting ewes put in the brood pen. It is a good plan to trim a little of the wool from near the udder so the little one can find the teat. It, is mit best to try to assist the little one by bolding it up, as most of them seem to object to it. If lambs have got chilled before nursing fill a gallon jug with hot wa- ter, wrap a sack around It and put it ' In a corn basket: then put the lambs In the basket and throw a horse blan- ket over all.

Feeding sheep for breeding purposes should be done carefully. If they have tall grass, cornstalks, etc., do not feed any grain at all until lambs are drop- ped, then give each one about two pounds of carrots nod a little shelled oats twice each day for the first week and after that all she wants to eat of shelled corn, oats and carrots, butler - milk, potato and tipple parings, straw. beets and cornstalks, with plenty of water. especially if there is no snow. There is no use of grinding any kind of grain for sbeep. If lambs are not born until grass time and grass Is good no grain need ever be feel A ewe is generally good for breeding as long as her teeth are good, and that is from six to MeV years. Even at that age she will sell, well to the butcher, though often ob- jectionably fat.

Professor Villsialmar Stefansson, who left New York in April, 1908, at the bead of an expedition tutu the arctic regions under the auspices f the Mu . sewn of Natural History. itinno.,br round in the far north deseettaentif of Leif Ericson's coloulste, who vanished nearly a thousand years ago. \For thirteen months I lived as an Eskimo among Eskimos of a distinct type from the Eskimos heretofore en- seountered, without the straight black Mongolian hair of the Eskimo as we have telways known him, but with red- dish hair and in some cases with blue eyes. as well as with different customs and habits.\ said Professor Stefansson. \I learned that there were about 2.000 Eskimos of this unusual type, divided into thirteen tribes. I personally met about half of them. Out of about a thougand I saw, there were perhaps a dozen with blue eyes. and perhaps 500 bad eyebrows as light as mine. Some of them had curly hair.\ Professor Stefansson was born in Canada thirty-aix years ago and is of Norwegian descent. He is a graduate of Harvard university and has been in- terested lit arctic explorations for ninny years. having Made several scientific trips to Iceland and other north polar regions. He left his home at the age of fourteen and for four years; was a cowboy in North Dakota. latter he was a student in the North Dakota State univeraity, going from there to Harvard. After his graduation from the latter institution be was made a member of the faculty. becoming pro- fessor of ethnology. Commander of a Great Fleet, Rear Admiral Hugo Osterhans. cone- maiider of the Atlantic fleet mobilized at New York city fersetwiew, had the largest number of war vessels tincliir his charge ever gathered together in Amerieati waters. Warships to the number of 127 of all classes, with a total dtsphieement of 741.500 tons, were nseembled. The record break- ing fleet comprised thirty-two battle- ships. four armored cruisers. four cruisers, twenty-one vessels of special type. six naval militia vesesels, eight fuel ships. twenty-six torpedo boat de- stroyers. sixteen torpedo boats and ten submarines.

The company being seated In a cir Hs, one starts by whispering to his aeighbor on his left an article; tide one. ii he.pers to the otie on the left an ad- Iss tive; be whispers to the one on his a notni, anti email whispers to the nue oti the left the following parts of appall in regular order: An article, an a ss...five, a noun singular, a verb, an Htherb. a number. another adjective and a 1101111 plural. the last one eliding by whispering to the first. When each has had the word whis- pered In his or her ear the second oue tells his woid aloud, then the third, fourth. and so on, until a complete sen- tence Is spoken. The first player whispers the article a, second one the adjestive magnifi- eent, third ono the noun leopard. fourth one the verb contemplated. fifth one the adverb pensively, sixth one the number nineteen, seventh one another adjective, exasperated. and the eighth one a noun in plural, kangaroos, to (M- irth the sentence. Erich one now speaking his whisper- ed word aloud, the nonsense is: \A magtilicent leopard contemplated pensively nineteen exasperated kanga- roos.\ H. Knew His Name. Among the stories told from time to time to illustrate the intelligence of dogs node is more charming than tills little ane.dote, said to be true, of the dog belonging to the poet Whittier: One day when the poet Was celebrat- ing his birthday he was visited by a woman who was a tine singer. On be lug asked to sing this woman seated herself at the piano anti heaven the beautiful song called \Robin Adair.\ While she was singing Mr. Whittler's pet dog came into the room, and. seat- ing himself by the woman's side, he itatened with unusual attention to her some When she had finished he came and put his paw very gently into her hand and licked her cheek. \Robin has taken that song as a frib ute to himself.\ said Mr. Whittier, \for bis name is also Robin Adair.\ The dog, having heard his own name in the song, seemed to think that It was all for his benefit. From that mo- ment and during all the woman's visit he was her devoted attendant. He kept at her side while she was indoors. and when she went away he carried her satchel in his mouth, with every evidence of distress. Lemons—A Game. Any number may play at lemons. Two of them stand aside, joining bands like the arch in London bridge. They represent the squeezer. The oth- er players are the lemons. and they stand at some distance from the ,squessZer. The squeezer singe: Borne lemons I want for the freezer. Come, Juicy ones, come to the squeezer. They keep on singing this refrain, while the lemons creep nearer and nearer. Suddenly one of them darts through the arch. If the squeezer Is quick enough the lemon Is caught and squeezed and stands aside, out of the game, while the squeezer SWIM A juicy lemon -squeeze him dry. We'll have another by and by But If the lemon gets through un- caught the squeezer sings: See, the lemon's passed us by! To catch another we must try. If the squeezer falls three times it is worn out and a new one must take Its place. In this way the game can be kept up for ni long time, for It is seldom that all the lemons get caught. Money In Birds' Nests. A small boy of Caldwell. N. J., is the richer by $10 for the fact that some sparrows chose to build their nests in the attic windows of hie home. John Bowman is his name, and it all canna about When some sparrows annoyed his mother so much that she told him to destroy their nests that had been built in the windows on the top floor. John went nhead to do so, like an obedient son, hut he was somewhat surprised to flnd that inside tile first nest was a tiny scrap of It ten dollar bill. John didn't think much of this. but he be- came interested when be went on and found that in the other nests were other pieces of the note. Seetningly the colony of the birds had divided the booty between them. John went on to Collect all the pieces of the bill he could and then gent them on to the treasury &pertinent at Washington to be re- deemed. The Snake's Tail. This is a Japanese game for chil- dren and Is played as follows: The children form a line, each resting his hands on the shoulders of the player In front. OW'. who Is the catcher, stands alone. The first player on the line Is called the head and the last the tall. When the game begins the catcher stands some distanee away from the head and at a given Menai tries to catch the tall, or end player, without petehIng nnybody else. The others de- fend the tail by moving (Omit In any way he choose, except that the line must not be broken, for should It break the tall Is considered might and Tenet become catcher, while the catch- er goes to the head. am changed Autumn. my children! . - 67r4 ny a mother tree Ile leaves are changed to birds! how they tiv from me'\ Ti'.. resior tard leaves Were fluttering down - weld dancing in the breeze, While, stretching nut their empty arms. l o w s moaned the mother tree*. wit at \My I Hotel Geyser Geyser, Montana American Plan $2.00 per Day Special Rates by Week or Month First -Class Service Special Attention to Commercial Travelers ANDREW HEDMAN, ProPr.
