"Sheep raising conditions are about .the same in Australia as they are here,' 'said F. L. Burt of South Dakota, who Lis engaged in the sheep raising business both in this country and in Australia. 'The sheep over there are raised mainly for their wool, although the meat is also quite a valuable product for both the local and export trade. The price of both wool and meat in Australia is regulated by London values. The meat, which is shipped in cold storage vessels, can be 'kept fresh very easily. Farm laborers in Australia receive in the neighbor; hood- 'Of $20 a month, which is praetz cally the 'same as they get here. In the towns the meohanies are paid about $3.- 50 13:50 to $4 a day. Living may possibly be a little cheaper over there, but the difference is not very great. As far as agricultural conditions generally are concerned you have many advantages here. The climate in Australia is too dry. The winters there are not so cold, however, and while the summers are hot the heat is not oppressive."—From the Baltimore American.

"I earned it, young man," said the financial magnate, "many years ago by doing just what you are doing now, as my first assignment on a newspaper. I went out to interview a man, and it may interest you to know that I got a good deal more information out of him then you're going to get out of me." THE GIRL OF THE GRAY HORSE Makes a Daily Gift of an Apple or Sweets to Her Favorite. George, a gray horse attached to one of the newspaper delivery wagons in Park row, is the recipient every day of a large red apple from a young woman. After purchasing an apple from the Italian fruit dealer by the Sun building the young woman walks over to the curb and lets George take the apple from the palm of her hand. After pat- ting him on the neck and speaking some soothing words to him she passes on. The fruit dealer who witnesses this performance every day says that the young woman has been giving the horse apples for the past five years, seldom missing a day. Sometimes she does not purchase an apple and instead brings a few lumps of sugar from home. On one occasion the fruit dealer of- fered her a three cent apple, but she de- clined to take it, saying that a three cent apple was not substantial enough for George. She wants a five cent apple for her favorite. Rain a Poor Substitute. Irrigation is better than rain, infinite. ly better. That sounds like a paradox, but instead it is almost a truism. 'What is better—to give a plant just as much and no more water than it needs and just when it needs it; or to parch it or drown it, according to the whin of the clouds? The raja falls upon the just and upon the unjust alike; upon your strawberries that cry for it and upon your sugar -beets that want uninterrupt- ed sunshine. Rain is all right in its place, but it is a very poor substitute for ir- rigation. Otherwise why would the lawns of our cities be sprinkled or ir- rigaited instead of leaving then to the tender mercy of the clouds? No. Arid lends are more fertile than ordinary lands, and irrigation is better than rain. -Walter E. Weyl in Success. Filial Devotion.

An amusing reply was given by one of the pupils. A teacher had told the class of the wonderful voyage of Col- umbus and how he insisted on con- tinuing the voyage after the other mein were clamoring to return. Then she asked: "Who was Columbus?" with the view of hearing how well they had followed her talk. One little hand went up. "Well, Johnny, who was he?" ask- ed the teacher.

In Bssex, England, the Elsenharn Spar- row Club flourishes, It holds a meeting and dinner once a year, at which time the members give an account of their ef- forts toward keeping down the sparrow pest. Its President, Walter Gilbey, de- scribes its work as follows: "All the fariners and most of those who have gardens in the parish, which covers 1,830 acres, and some tenants of neighboring farms, belong to the same chub, whioh was established seventeen years ago. The rules are very simple: Each member undertakes to kill one sparrow for each acre of his holding be- tween Sept. 1 and May 1, and sends the heads to the local innkeeper, who keeps a record of them. If the member's tally falls short of the total he ought to send he is fined Id. for each head lacking, the money going to a fund which is spent in refresluneats at the annual 'upper of the club held at the inn. The sum raked by fines, however, is, I aan informed, praetioally nil. "Two sparrows an acre were killed annually during the first two or three years of the club's existence, and the average number of head.s now sent in is about 3,000 a year. in addition the mem- bers kill a large number of young spar- rows during the breeding season, but of these no record is kept.' —From Forest and Stream.

GOOD MEDICINE FOR ME.,; When a man has lost ambi- tion to "dig in" and stay at things—when he complains of headache, fulness in right side, pains in the shoulder blade— it's purely a case of "Liver."

The body can't get rid of its waste, and the whole sys- tem is half paralyzed. } re Hamilton's Pills Being a mild vegetable laxa- tive, they produce results in a few hours.
