PERCOLATE ('OFFEE IN FIRE ENGINES For the first time in history Bre engines were used as coffee percola- tors at the inauguration of J. C. Wal- ton as Governor of Oklahoma. The inauguration was marked by many unique features, including the world's biggest barbecue, at which 200,000 persons were fed. At the State Fair Park two fire engines from the Oklahoma City De- partment were placed adjacent to three immense urns, which were filled with coffee, Pipes ran from the en- gines to the urns, steaming the cof- fee. The urns looked more like corn eribs. Three were built on the grounds with a capacity of 10,000 gallons each and lined with sheet iron. Faucets were arranged along the bottom, and the crowd with tin caps lined up and helped itself, To barbecue the meat, four trench - be, each a quarter of a mile long were s togetkes sod eritA manure eat ta Inc blrftds.

Then add gradually six pounds of sugar (or 41,, lbts: of sugar and 2 lbs. of glucose or corn syrup) and boil until the marmalade seta when tested—usually from thirty-five to fifty nsindtes. Sweet Orange Marmalade.—Choose eight oranges with thick akine, halve them from and to end, and rut across in thin slices. These place in eight pints of water and the pips separate- ly in one pint of water. Remove the rind of four lemons in thin strips rid shred them finely. Extract the juice and ride and mix it and the shreds with the sliced orangies. Cut up the white part of the lemons and add to the orange pips.

((Lemon Marmalade.—Wash and dry eight good lemons and lwn thick- skinned sweet oranges. Halve them lengthwise and cut across into ex- teemely thins slices. Place the slices when cut in four and a half pints of water and the pips in a separate half - tint of water. Next day simmer the pips for twenty minutes, strain, add water to make up the original half- pint, and mix with the water contain - leg the sliced lemons. Heat slowly and boil till perfettly soft (usually about half an hdur). On the follow- ing day add 6 pounds of syrup (or 4,e's lbs. sugar and 1 ee lbs. glucose or corn syrup), and when almost dis- solved boil up and keep it steadily boiling until the marmalade sets ightly when tested on a cold plate— usually a good half hour.

More than 100 employees kept turning the meat with pitchforks until it roasted, erisp, tender and brown. More than 500 beeves were slaughtered for the occasion and, be - irides, there were carloads Df other meats. This meat was cooked' twenty- feur hours before it was served. MARMALADE There is nothing that quite takes the place of orange marmalade, and now while oranges are plentiful .is the time to make it. If you have a big hungry family and little time just quarter the fruit, cover with water and boil until the skin is tender. Then cut finely, add cup for cup of sugar and boil until it jells, If you desire a finer looking marmalade any of the following recipes will be good: Easy Orange Marmalade.—Use five oranges and one lemon and three- quarters of a pound of sugar to each pound of fruit. Extract the juice and grate the yellow rind of the lemon.

Cridland Suffered from Kidney .Trouble and got no Relief Till She Took Dodd's Kidney Pills. Langton, Ont., February 5th. (Spe- cial). Miss C. M. Cridland, a well known resident here, states, "I have been troubled with my kidneys for some time. Your Dodd's Kidney Pills did me more good than any other medicine I have ever taken. I think they are a wonderful medicine." Dodd's Kidney Pills are purely a kidney remedy. They tone up and strengthen weak kidneys and put them in condition to do their full work of straining the impurities out of the blood. Strong healthy kidheys are absolutely necessary if the blood is to be pure and the body healthy. Pure blood coursing through the body carries to the different organs, the nourishment they need, keeps them sound and °Aisles them to throw off disease df-tfffferent kinds. GETTING STOCK READY FOR BUYERS This is the beginning of the season of the trade in registered, cattle, horses and hogs. From (ids time until July, cattle breeders will ex- perience the strongest demand for as a rule, it is in these months that men in the market for bulls -endeavor to supply their needs.' The demand fora hoge begins earlier and continues well into March. The same rule hold's for the stallion and mare trade. It is important that producers of pedigree stock should put forth ape- cial efforts in the proper conditioning of their surplus stock, in order that they may be in a position to offer breeding animals that are well -grown and ir . thrifty breeding condition. In order to make sales one must offer stock that pleases the prospective buyer's eye. Most buyers in these days of num- erous shows and auction sales are • way well qualified to "take in" the merits or demerits of an animal at a glance. The breeder who is most successful in disposing of his surplus is the ono who is producing gond stock, who grows it out properly, and presents it in a well-groomed, attractive con- • dition. it takes little if any more time to grow a good animal than a poor one, If a man takes any pride , o 4§,V,441,N, Aii`etlIttkaft,$g 04,71k AA .

Some men seem never to learn this lesson until they, do the rewards for their lobes will be materially lower than' those of their neighbors who take pride in their work. The *turns for every farm on which pure bred live stock is produc- ed may be materially increased- by a little closer attention to the matter of the better growing lead more pleas- ing conditioning of saleable stock. It is a lesson which must be learned if one is to get the best returns for his labors. Where it is the practice to keep young stock well-sourished and pro- perly cared for, one need have no fear that his stock may not be in good sale fix. This is the Proper way to aid and develop the frame, sesult- ing from good blood. The breeder who tries to- save his feed and has well grown stock may think he is acting wisely, but when he cornea to sell he is apt to realize that he has lost at both ends of the transaction, for, in most cases, the best returns from grain under normal conditions come through turning into beef, pork, mutton or good horse flesh. Therefore, the writer urges breed- ers to take stock of their methods, and make changes for the better, for by so doing they will contribute much to their own bank accounts, and, at the same time, be making enviable reputations as breeders of live stock of the better class. A few words to those who rely on the auction sale for disposal of their surplus: Begin early to condi• tion the stock to be sold, in order that those who attend the sale may be pleased with the offering. A pleas- ed crowd at the ringside means a successful sale, and a successful sale means more cash to put in the bank, and, what is equally desirable, the satisfaction of having done a thing in a manner to reflect credit on orteself, one's herd and one's farm.—Canadian Ayrshire Review. DISCOVERS OF AMERICA LONG BEFORE COLUMBUS Prof. J, P. Harrington, ethnologist of the Smithsonian Institute, has mar- shalled a formidable list of argil- ments to prove his theory that this continent was discovered by Indiana long before the time of Columbus. He fixes thee time of their first arrival at 20,000 years ago, and says that they eame over from Siberia. Like Columbus, they did not know what they had discovered. Probably they did not know that they had discovered aeything, They simply found a land where game was plentiful and where the struggle for existence was eas- ier than it was in Asia, and so they spread all over North and South America. About the only weakness that presents itself when looking over the statement of Prof, Harring- ton -is the assumed fad that there never floated back to Asia any news of what the pioneers had found. In a migration of so many thousands it seems incredible that no traveller returned to tell of the wonders he had seen. However, even if he had done so the Asiatic forefathers of llte Indians had no literature, and it is probable that the only record of a return visit would have been in some legend. One of the strongest arguments in favor of the theory that the orig- inal settlers of this continent came over from Siberia, by way of Alaska is the undoubted fact that the pas- sage was quite poesible. For a long stretch of the Siberian coast, the shore and mountains of Alaska ase in plain sight across Behring Strait, which at one place is only 50 miles wide. It is obvious, therefore, that as a matter of seeing alone, this continent was discovered as soon as there were any inhabitants In Siber- ia. Moreover, the passage is broken by the two small Diomede Islands. Sometimes this strip of water freezes over and a crossing on foot would be quite feasible even if the Siberians were not venturesome enough to put off in boats and it is known that they had boats from the earliest time. It is easier to be- lieve than to disbelieve that these Siberian tribes which were nomadic would make an effort to explore the country lying so close to them, espe- cially since Siberia must have left much to be desired as a permanent home. Prof. Harrington believes that the discoverers of America took this route and ,tio other. The fact that the Konimandorsky Islands, the westernmost of the Aleutian chain which stretches from Kamehatka to Alaska, were uninhabited when dis- covered by modern man, as was Iceland, discounts the theory that either the Aleutian chain or Iceland was used. The professor sees no rea- son to accept the theory that the discoverers came by long jumps across the Pacific. There is no rea- son to suppose that they guessed the presence of land, to the west. These ignorant pioneers must have eedy Relief 011VirTS TO COIJOHS, COL.

Prof. Harrington says that in dui West and M Mexico, Central Amer- ica and Peru their culture reached its apex. In support of bis thee,* that the discoverers of America were all of one kind, he cites their physical characteristics, the wide spread occurrence of customs and myths found in all tribes and upon a special study of their languages which he made with the kymograph, an instrument for recording the most delicate nuances of sound There is a unity in all the Indian languages, he finds, which indicate a mother tongue for all, and he esti- mated the time of the Asiatic Inva- sion at 20,000 years, because in this time there would naturally have arisen the divergences *bah are found in the various dialects. Strongest of all Prof. Harrington's arguments, however, is the fact for which he vouches that there are in Siberia to -day, tribes which resem- ble in every respect certain Indian tribes. So close iz this similarity that were one of these natives strip- ped and placed beside an American Indian, no scientist could tell by the most delicate measurements or other characteristics which 1911.4 which. Another theory held by some eth- nelogists is that the Amerisisas were Europeans who acquired their black hair and swarthy skins after arriv- ing on this continent. A still later theory advanced by Dr. Roland B. Dixon, profeesor of anthropology, of Harvard, hi that this continent was populated by four great immigra- tii.ns; two from Europe, and two from Asia. Ile conies to this con- clusion because he finds the native Beetles of Mirth and South America fell into four classes. Ile agrees with Prof. Harrington, however, that certainly one invasion eame by way of Behring Strait. POINTS OF A GOOD IIORSB Just what constitutes a good horse many farmers would find difficult to define. They may—some them— by some unexplainable instinet, know a useful animal by its general ap- pearance; but ask them to pent out those attributes which indicate quality and usefulness in a horse, and it be - comets a case of, "Well, I'll give you so much cash for him." It may be profitable, therefore, to discuss some of those points which we imagine loom up large in the horseman's brain -box when he has, say, an order to buy half a hundred "quads." Let us start at the head, for, as John Jorrocks affirmed, it acts as a bal- ance, The mouth should be dee'', so that there is plenty of room for the bit. Shallow -mouthed horses nearly al- waye have very tender mouths. The lip should be thin, nostrils large, to ensure a free passage of air when the horse is extended. The eyes large and bright; the narrow eye an narrow nostril generally denote sullen and treacherous disposition. no wrinkles between the eye and forehead; if there are it : denotes nervousness. To test the eyes, bring the horse out of the stable on a bright day and notice if both pupils wihl contracti or put.yOur band over the eye to shade it when in the open, and see if both pupils will ex- pand. Blindness can also be detected by the way tbe horse will lift its legs as if it is stepping over something. It is no use poking your finger at the eye, for it is so surrounded with hairs that you will be sure to touch one of them and the eye will immediately twitch, whether it can see or not, The forehead between the eyes must be broad to allow sufficient space for the brains, and should run down to a little way above the nostrils in a per- fectly straight line. .4 dish in the nose generally denotes vice, and a bump (Roman nose) generally shows sullenness. The cars should be in proportion to elle size ef the horse, and the points should press inwards towards each other ellen the ears are twisted forward. Well -shaped ears and !he way they are carried ,are essential to the make- up of the perfect horse's head. ... By looking at them it is easy to see what the horse is about. If they are prick- ed stiffly forward there is something in front that is not as it should be; if turned back and lying nearly flat against the neck the horse wants to bite; if turned back, but not lying flat, look out, for its heels. The ears should always play now backward, then forward—one back and the other forward—this shows that the horse is all attention. Ears carried in a slov- enly fashion, usually drooping out- wards, denote a careless worker. In the deaf horse the ears hove lost their beautiful play, and are nearly always carried upright. The neck should be fairly thin where it joins the head, fairly bug and gradually broadening as it reaches the forequarters. It should be car- ried as though the horse was proud of it, and not as if the head was a weight dragging it down, the wind- pipe prominent all through. The horse's chest should he wide to en- able the forelegs to have sufficient room. Narrow chests and brushing can always be associated The shoul- der ebould be long and slope well to- wards the back, wellemeseled, hut must not have the appearance of tie- ing overloaded.

ASK FOR OGOUt5 FINE CUT On the 9reen,pecket) IT IS THE BEST spring to ensure comfort for the horse and rider, The hoof should be hard and open at the heel and in propor- tion to the size of the home. The legs must be straight when viewed hum the front, and if a line were dropped from the point of the shoul- der it should cut through the centre of the knee, canon -bone, and hoof. The hind legs, like the front, should also stand straight when viewed from behind, and a line dropped from the point of the buttocks should divide the leg, and looked at from the side the line should fall parallel with the d canon -bone, and the hock shquld not a protrude beyond the line. The withers should be fairly high. From behind the withers to behind the elbow should be deep, the ribs well rounded and extending far back to the hips, so that there is not much space between the last rib and hip. If the space is large it is gen- erally a sign of weakness. The back should be straight and not too long, the crop sloping slightly with the thighs running rather low down the leg and a fairly deep curve above the hock. The tail sluend not be carried as though it wee. a heavy weight hanging straight down on the but- tock], but should be slightly elevat- ed.
