Peenlinrltie« ef th« Burrow«« Which DAIRYMEN’S Perhaps no wild mammal is more familiar to country people than the woodchuck, says a writer in Country Life in America. Every hillside and meadow is dotted with the small piles of earth which mark the doorway to his home. The woodchuck prefers a hillside or a knoll in which to dig his hole, for here he can easily make the end of his den higher than the begin ning, thus avoiding the danger of be ing drowned out. What could be more unlike in general appearance than a woodchuck and a squirrel? Yet they are cousins, both belonging to the same family of mammals. The trim body, sharp claws and agility of the squirrels make it possible for them to lead an arboreal life, jumping reck lessly from branch to branch, while the flabby form and short legs of the woodchuck better adapt him for dig ging than for running or climbing. The nature of the food of the wood chuck is such that he cannot lay up stores as the chipmunks do, nor is it of such a kind that it can }>e obtained during* the winter. The case of this creature during the winter seems to be, therefore, one of "sleep long and soundly or starve." During the win ter’s sleep or hibernation life proc esses go on very slowly. Brei?hingis reduced, and the heart beats become so slow and feeble that they cannot be felt. They come from their win ter’s sleep about March 1 in New York.

The art of swinging gracefully in a hammock is acquired. It does not come naturally. It is on a par w. learning to ride a bicycle or rowing a boat. It takes considerable prac tice, much presence of mind and skill to become proficient. Awkward posi tions ire easily taken while reclining or sitting in hammocks and the most graceful may fall far short while in one of these most treacherous, though comfortable, adjuncts to a summer outing. To make a pretty picture a young woman should perch lightly on the edge of the swing and poise herself easily. The only true way to re cline U to cross the feet gracefully and allow her skirt to hang freely over the edge. The most trying or deal for the hammock girl is that of alighting from the swing. This is al ways sn embarrassing moment, but quickner.s and a little dexterity will extricate the young woman from the trying position. I The Most Reliable Merchants in Tillamook County.

SUPPLIES AND SEA POWER OF THE NATIONS. In a review of the sea power of the great nations the Naval Annual shows that in the ten years from 1892 to 1902 these changes have oc curred: 1. Russia, Germany and the United States have all become the owners of as many battleships as France, which ten years ago was in that re spect second only to Great Britain. 2. Japan's navy has been created and, for Asiatic purposes, is united with Great Britain's. 3. The British and Japanese navies together number 47 armorclads of the first-class—three more than the combined total of Russian, French and German warships of that class. 4. France has made armored cruis ers the prime feature of her new construction and will shortly count 13 of them. 5. Great Britain has well main tained her lead over her two most probable adversaries and now counts 29 first-class battleships ready for action, against 17 for France and Russia combined. Assuming that the United States does not join it the Naval Annual concludes that no combination of naval powers could be made strong enough to destroy British sea power.
