THE BUFFALO. The r flalo. whose ritlit naive !v P sor. i- the only well kno.vn Ait.rit. n iir... 1 »' pt Hie Goal who il w>'. - w!:i:keis. The Buffalo is ielattsl to ihe Kiik .a mild-mannered hov.ne wi. ch furnishes the motive power for Asiatic .itney buses. The Yak js of -ie.it, e 1 ..tisic value when al.'.e, and wl:> n Ue;.d his uil Mill wafts In the form of a ll' swatter- and there sue some hies to swat in Asia, bein ve usi Tin only thins; that is left i e. Fifty years a ;o. when beards were a mark of masculine distinction and familv portraits hung in the parlor, vi hen the plush < overed album vva - a foini of popular diversion, the Buffalo pawed the western plains in millions. But with the passing of physiognomic drapery the Buffalo went down and out. until, like the Bull Moose, there is nothing left of his former greatness rave a few live s, tnples in captivity and some mounted specimens in museums. The trouble with the Buffalo was that he had enoi;-h size and speed, hiit he lacked oin clion. His head was big. h.it there was nothing of value inside of If. W ie the mighty hunter sneaked up on a ! r.d of six Buffalo and picked off o ie of them with his trust\ title, th* other five would stick around and look foolish, unlil the whole sextet were ready to be made into Buffalo robes. This behavior was called com a ce. and maybe it was; bat tbe fellow who doesn’t know when to beat It is made of stufl that undertaki rs delight in and cemetery a iiciations pay dividends on. The Buffalo has alwavs been regarded as a heroic figure, but all he ever got for his courage was to have a v illage in New York named for him and get his picture oc a five-rent nickel. Courage, my son, is a fine thing; but remember that it is pleasanter to be a live politician with a large income, than a dead statesman wiih a large monument. Don't be a Buffalo.—From Judge. THE AMERICAN STIGMA OF "HIGH BROW.” The worst fault, however, into which our age long service of mediocrity has led us is a weak-kneed, pusillanimous d.ferome to mediocrity itself. The rollege has hoi rowed tbe vice from everyday American life. For example, the most deadly weapon in the yellow journalists armory is th* term ‘'lilgh1 row.” A politician may be called ‘'grafter,” "boss,” or even ‘‘muckraker,” and escape unscratched; but if he is demounced as a "high brow”and the label sticks, his career is ended. A playwright or a novelist may be written down as ‘‘cheap,” he may be said to plagiarize, he may be shown to be vicious or unclean, without serious damage to his reputation; but let him lie proved a "high brow" and the public will fly from him as If he were a book-agent. Now the wide-spread American belief that knowledge makes a man impractical is responsible for some of this curious odium; but far more is due to our servile deference to mediocrity. The weight of public opinion is usually against the expert, the specialist, the thinker, the exceptional man in general, for public opinion, whether right or wrong, is always mediocre: and there are few among u- who do not in this respect yield somehow, somewhere, to public opinion. The doctor distrusts the adv need polithal theorist, the politician distrusts the advanced dramatist, the dramailst sneers at the innovation of science. We are all made timid bv the enormous majorities which uphold mediocrity. Henry Seidel Canty in Harper’s Magazine.

in dynamite and textiles, as well as in many chemical compounds. \n especially constructed model in the older building for the National Museum at Washington, with brooks of rupning water, wooded hills and a well-built‘tow n. shows graphically the tod a plant, the salt wells in operation, and the surrounding country of a well known soda manufacturing establishment In New York slate. This Interesting model in the division of I.moral technology shows in reduced riale Ihe method of obtaining Salt for use in making soda from beds deep w.'liii the earth without mining, and Illustrates the conveyance of the same in 'lie form of brine to the soda fi'aiit ever 20 miles away. A narrow strip of land is shown in plan and profile, from the hilly reg on of ihe Tnlly laikes, south of Solvay, N Y., to the flat country near Sol x; v including the outlying portions of Sviacuse, N. Y. Tlie model js unique ir that it is not only topographically correct, with the elevations and det’essions carefully worked out, hut 1 ;•« the manufacturing plant, the .- ilt wells, tanks, etc., and roads, houses rid trees together with brooks and h.Kes of teal water. Tbe salt wells h ing at a depth of 1.20i) feet below the surface of ihe hills are shown, with the pipes which feed ihe tanks rnd reservoirs below in the lewn of Solvay. Sections of Lake Onondaga, tnd the Erie canal are also to be teen. Bearing in mind the fact that salt is soluble In water, the engineers of the concern at Solvay evolved the scheme of using the abundant supply of pure water furnished by the numerous lakes In the region of Tully, N. Y . by forcing It into the deep lying salt beds and drawing it off in the form of salt water. This was serompiished by sinking two pipes, one within the other, -ending the fresh water from the lakes down the larger pipe and sucking up fhe salt water through the inner oipe The salt water or brine Is stored in concrete reseryoirs, constructed near a' band, from where it is connected to the plant at Solvay, II miles sway, by a pipe line, and may be drawn rtf as desired This method of securing the ralt is one of the modern devices employed by man to overcome the great deli uses of nature against his snack, and raves much labor and expense, for the salt is obtained directly in the form required for the process. The process used here for making baking soda with ammonia is known as the Solvay process, invented m 1K6:', by Ernest Solvay of Brtr rein. The many complicated chemical opera turns necessary in this syatem of man. ulacturer will be but briefly uenDoned. Three principal ingredients xje ys.-d » !..• h js gbljUTStf h* solution irom ihe -alt beds: ammonia, which is secured as a byproduct from the coke ovens operated both for tlie coke and gases, among which is the ammonia, and lime, which is obtained by burning limestone secured from Jamesrille, a near by town. In simplest terms, this process con •isu of treating the brine solution with ammonia obtained from tbe coke ovens. When thoroughly saturated with ammonia gas. ihe brine ia forced under pressure into lanks containing carbon dioxide, which in turn is obtained when limestone is converted into lime. The resultant products obtained from these reactions are bicarbonate of aoda, and ammonia chloride. By a further treatment the carbon dioxide is liberated and used over again, while any ammonia given off Is condensed and returned to the tanks. The sodium biesrbonate thus fot;i ed 1* heated in rotary dryers and thus converted into sodium carbonate which i* the soda ash of trade. 9ome of the sodium carbonate Is dissolved in water and boiled with milk of lime, this converts the sodium carbonate into caustic soda, another well known compound. Another part of the sodium carbonate is dissolved in witier, recarbonated and then dried to coti ▼ert it Into refined Wcarbonat* of soda, known commercially as baking soda.

er wishes to perpetuate his flock, and the raising of young chickens requires as much land as tbe keeping of mature hens. After she ia two jt-aia old, tbe best laying days of the average hen are over and it usually pays to get rid of her. This means that half the flock must lie renewed each year.

must be allowed for these as for the lay ing liens. The cockerels are consumed through the season, being used either as broilers when they are alwnit three months old. as friers, or as

roasters.

It is also most desirable as a precaution against disease to divide the available area into two plats. On one of these tbe chickens are allowed to range while a green crop-wheat or oats, for example is being grown for them on tbe other. The preliminary turning under of the soil, the green crop, and freedon from chickens for a period serve to prevent the land from becoming contaminated. Additional range, with the advantage of a larger supply of insect feed for ihe birds, may sometimes be ©btal ed via re a vicetable garden is maintained. At dilltrent times in ih< grow ing season there ate areas in tlie garden which are cither idle or occupied only by crops that the hens will not tomb. The birds, confined to these with the aid of a portable lence, benefit without injury to the vege-

tables.

An iiiiiaiitan- item to be considered by those thinking ot maintaining a home flock is the cost of the house. For some part of the year at least, in almost eycry se< (ion of the I'nited States, chickens require the shelier of a tight, dry building. In planning the house, approximately 4 or 5 feet of floor space should lie allowed tor ea'ch bird. The height nicy be determined by the convenience of the operator, for the birds themselves need only ! or .'! feet. Such low houses, however, are very difficult to clean, and. in consequence, are li.Lely to be neglected. It is lietter to build them so high that, a man may work in tbtm fithnui discomfort. A not uncommon device is to use a piano box for a chicken house. The cost of these houses depend largely upon circumstances, though no estimate can lie given. It may he possiMe to find one the owner will be glad to give away; and, on the other band, one may have to pay $1. 50 or more for a box that is not better. By combining two piano boxes, a very satisfactory shelter for a small flock can be made at little expense. Where lumber must be purchased, It has been estimated that the marerisls for a substantial chicken house may cost auywhere from 50 teji's to $1.00 per bird, and it is not unlikely lhat with the present prices cf commodities of ail kinds, tbeae figures will be somewhat low. PortaWe chicken houses are also on the market at costs varing greatly. The majority, however, will probably coat the owner $1.50 to $2.00 for euch bird sheltered by them. In any eyent. it is probnble that unless there Is plenty of spare lumber available and tbe prospective poultry man happen; to be a good carpenter, the coat of the chicken house will not be met by the value of the products oyer the cost of feed for the flock for a year ut ♦ wo The house should last, however, for a number of ycara, especially 11 painted and well cared for. Sub atantial profits from the investment ■bould be made thereafter. In many cases also, where the nur roundings are such that the cbickrnt can not be allowed to range at will the cost of fmcing must be con

Implements. In the ca-e of furniture and cabinet work, the sapwood portions of backs and interior aurfioes ate most liable io attack. As a measure of prevention the wood likely to tie attacked may be treated with boiled linseed oil or ooare of paraffin or varnish may be applied Kerosene or mixtures of kerosene and c reosote may be applied to Infeeted Woods to kill the grubs. In storehouses more extensive measures of treatment may be 'inployed both for preventing Hve attacks and killing the grub* in tlie wood.
