A Way Discovered for Utilizing Her Jack Rabbit Crop. The Kansas jack rabbit, rh:li from lime Immemorial has been acceded the unquestioned Ireedoui tf the prairies, witii only in occasional jack rabbit round tip t disturb his laceM poMes- !on ol the tlslds, bencefoith must be ever on the alert, for a price haa been ' set upon bis bead. I TlioiiHands Ukii thousands of dollars are thrown away every win'er because sportsmen do not know that jack rabbit hides are valuable, porting clubs and Individual buiiteiS kill mauy thousands f the lube-limbed jacks every winter simply for the sport of killing. Oi:ca sionaliy a cargo of the rabnite thus slain are aeut to the relief committees in tbe larger cities for gratuitous distribution among the poor, and many a family in ttie tenement district of trie grw.it cities has sat down thankfully to a steaming hot dinner ot jack rabbit soup,' a d.s nut to oe scorned Dy any lover 01 name meat. Dut despite tbe inroads of huntere upon tbe ranks of the Kansas jack raotilts they have followed tin? 81 i pi oral injuriciion to increase and multiply until they are sj numerous in eoine cuiiuttee as to be regarded aa peats. A iiuriber 01 dealers iu tilde lu vari ous cities in Kansas at lust have awak- ene i to the fact that jack rabbit hides, known in commerce as American hare pelts, are in demand in tbe Kaatern mar keta, and notiuea similar to the following are appearing lu many papers through out 1 he state : "We will buy nicely handled, ctsel jack raSnit skins at 3 cents each; opened or damaged, half price; culls and nieces, 3 firita A nr., in, I n.ln.lal la .1 KL a pound. Must be perfectly dry and free of meat." The buyers say that these are almost New York prices. A skilled rabbit hunter at these prices may easily make 12 a day, besides having his usual sport. The skins of the jack rabbits are used for making hats. The best quality bats are made from for, and tbe fur has here tofore teen obtained from Australia, where tbe rabbit are successfully dis puting 'he possession of the country with the human inhabitants. Tbe ekine go throuKb a shaving machine, and the fur is shaved off ve'V close. It in then cleansed and subjected to a variety of processes until it comes - out a perfect head covering, shapely and stylish and ready for the bandbox. It requires about a d ren rabbit skins to make one hat. It has been found that the fur of tbe black-tailed Kansas jack rabbit is supe rior to all other material for balmaking purposo. as it ie longer and stronger. and there is very little waste to the process. The bides are larger, too, and more hats may be made from a given number of Kansas jack rabbit ekinsthan from a. corresponding number of the hides ; of--otberM. varieties of rabbits When ypnrnailow 6b in a i-ale and goes bounding away dowutbe "street i, may not bo altogether the fault of tbe wind; who knows but that the hat ii still instinct with the life of the Kaunas jack rabbit, and reveling In a race with the wind? For the K annus variety ot jack rabbit is by far the fleetest of the holo rabbit family. A black-tailed jack rabhi' will leave a greyhound hope Imsly behind in a race. This winier Charles Payne of this city has kept a trio of hunters busy netting jack rfibhi'p, which he supplies to game preserves in Europe and the East. He has . net nmre than h,lf a nii:i long, which is set iu n V rbapo and staked down firm!)'. When the net i properly set the huDters, on horseback, ride back and forth in front of the open wings of the net and drive the rabbits in. The game could easily leap the nt, which ia only tour fret high, tut thevdo i,ot doit They follow the line of the neiting un'il they are corralled in. a pocket. The largest catch in one day was 67. The 4iiiuila are shipped in wire cages, each 'alihit having a cell to himself. Many f them are used to furnish amusement for coursing clubs. Chieano Hecord. Rules for Butter-flaking. The instructor ' Cne l Agricultural t'uilege, Itbaac, N. Y ha eent out a ist of rules about buusr-mnking and lipening cream. He Bays: lho practical part of cream ripening is this: Keep your vessel so (hat it may all ripen evenly and thus avoid loss in churning. Raise the temperature to 62 ir 0 dg'ees and keep it as nrar that temperature as poisible until rip, and then cool before churning. Well-ripened cream should hd coagulated or thickened. It should run from a height in a smooth stream like oil. When a paddle is dipped into it and held in the hand, it should stick ail over in a thick even coat not running oil" in streaks and showing the snrtace of the paddle. When tbe I ant drops run off the puddie back into the vt they should leave little dents or depressions on the surface, w hich do not close up for an instant. The cream should have a satin gloss or fresh sur face. Churn until the granules are the sizo uf wheat kernels; then draw off the buttermilk aud wash through two or three waters, whirling the churn a few times around Use from a pint to a quart of water per pound of butter. Have the water at a temperature of 40 to 45 degrees in hot weather and from 60 to 62 degrees iu winter, always depend ing upon season, natural solidity of the butter, warmth of loom and site of gran ules. If you do not caro about feeding the washings, I wxuld put some salt in my llrst wash water, It will help to float the giauules better, and perhaps dissolve out the casein to some extent. I would generally rait tbe butter in tbe churn. Populist Lobbyists. Mr. John 0. Young of Baker City, chairman, and L. M. RobinBon; secre tary of the populist state central com mittee, were in almost constant attend ance on the legislature. In other words, they are lobbyists. What do tbe honest rank aud (Ho of that party, and there are many good men among them, think of suchleadors? It Is too true that many ol the so-callod reform leaders are in it for personal pelf uud aggrandizement, having long ago become back numbers and worn out political hacks. No man with any pretense of decency would hang about Salom subsisting on tbe crumbs that fall from the legislative table. F.ugene Guard, The willow is one of tho most adapt able ot plants.

Mr. Glenn, one of the contractors as sociated with IIoneymaD, lie Hurt & Co,f while in Astoria Friday, says ton Astor lan, made a few positive statements and gave some figures relative to the wi. struct ion of the Astoria A Columbia River Railroad. Mr. Glenn say that sections, I, 2, 3, 6, 7. 9, 10. 13, 10, 17, 1. 19,21, Ti, 23. 24, 25,31. 32. 30. and 37 are all linlshi-d and ready for the piles and rails. Thia means that two-third of the mileage under contract by this firm have been completely gradod, and that 32 out of the 48 miles atiove Tongue Point are ready for laying of the steel roadway for the iron borao. Thus it will be seen that the greater portion of tne grading netween toble and the east end of the section bmlt by the Corev Br e.. is now readv for tbe track lavers. There remains to he finished the sections c.ri'aluing the tunnels and heavy cuts. Tbis is the har.Ieit and most expensive work to be done on the line, but Mr. Glenn says that even with bis present f'rce of men he can comple'e this work bv July or August. Orders have been issued, however, to so increase the force on March 1 as to insure tbe finishing of tne work by June 1. It is also notic- a-ln that all tbe contracis let, while some of them originally read that the work should be completed by June 20, now call for the finishing of the work by June 1. Two or three more commi ts re main to he let for tieatling and the re mainder of the ties, for which bids have already been opened," and wben these paper are signed tbe entire line will be under contract, except the rail laying.
