The life of a preventive oficer is not al-
ways one of pleasurable excitement, as the
following story, obtained from an officer of
the Dbminion preventive force.,y[ill testify: .
Ours is not always a bed of roses—began
the ofiicer in question, in relating his
story—and any one who joins the. force
under the impres‘si'dn that it is will be
sorely disappointed before he has put in
six months" service, especially along the
coast of Nova scotia and New Brunswick. '
I had». rather sixfeiting‘jexperience of it 'a
little time since "with a notations gang of ,
smugglers on the east coast ef’N ova Scotia.
1' had been made aware of the fact that a
small schooner of about sixty tons had left
for the French island'ofSt. Pierre Migue-
lou, one olthose French islands lying OR
the south coast of Newfoundland, a noted
rendezvous for smugglers, and knowing
the character of the captain and crew,
there was little room left for doubting
that they meant business, and would re-
turn witha good supply of French wines
and'liqiiors to smuggle in along the coast.
I was also‘pretty well satisfied of the point
at which they would attempt to effect a
landing, and accordingly lay waiting the
arrival of the Suspected'craft.
I knew I had a pretty good job out out
for me, but determined to go into it single
handed. I had lain in ambush about
twenty-four hours, when at midnight I
heard a boat pulling toward the shore“
from a vessel which soon came in sight
and dropped anchor rabOut one hundred
yards from‘th'e wharf, under. the caver of
which I_had;conc6iiled myself. The boat's
crew, four in number, landed, iand ‘after
satisfying themselves that the coast was
clear. and leaving one of their number on
shore to reconnoitcr, returned to the ves-
sel to commence landing their contraband
cargo.
The time had now arrived for me to
commence operations, which I must ad-
mit, in View of the great odds against me,
I did not do without some doubt as, to my
personal safety. I was well armed, lhow-
ever, and had been in some pretty tough
places before, and did not feel dispoSed to
show the white feather just now, probably
stimulated to the. effort byfthe knowledge
that the prize before me would be a valu-
able one if I secured it.
An I left my hiding - place to take a boat

that “we will all be hanged if you shoot

prospect or help reaching me, was ridicu-
lous, as Imust give in in the end, so I 'de-
termined: to make the best escape I could. '
‘ The boat’s crew, seeing that I meant
business, and that any one who attempted
to board the vessel took his life in his own
hands, after hanging around for an? hour
or so, pulled for the shore to renew their
attack in another way. Immediately on
landing they arrayed themselves along in
line, and commenced a fusilade of rocks
upon the vessel, smashing skylight and
everything breakable about the deck. I
dare not leave the deck for fear that a sec-
ond attempt at boarding would be'made,
and to protect myself from the torrent of
stones which were flying about my head I
was obliged to take up a positign behind
one of the masts, against which I‘had to
stand in an upright position for over an
hour, as by this time maforcemeuts had
arrived, and-l can assure: you they made it
pretty lively forms for a while." After a
time, tired beyond endurance, I managed
to get hold of ; the mainpeakhalyards and
raise the gafi of the mainsa‘ilia few feet
above the deck, which gave me a'first rate
shelter from the shower of rocks which
was still falling upon the deck on all sides.
I now began to think of what Was best
to be done. If I surrendered new the
chances were thatI would not get away
alive, or at any rate would receive a rough
handling. I must manage to escape un-
known to the crowd on shore, and this

could escape by the boat, which lay along.
side, and pull along the shore to the near-
est settlement without their discovering I
>had»left the vessel for some time, I would
have a chance of getting assistance and be
able to return and secure the schooner,
possibly before they had time to unload
her, and certainly before they could get
away from the port. Upon this I decided,
and laid my plans accordingly. '
In the first place, I muist cripple the ves~
so] as far as possible, to prevent her being
taken away immediately. I found a mon-
hailed him and asked him to take me off
to the vessel. To this hepaid no attention
until Idrew my revolverpunder, the cover
of which he returned and took” me in. I
saw that, if possible, hegwould upset the
boat and dump“ me into the Atlantic,
which 1 determined, if possime, toprevent.
He began to pull for the vessel, and laying
all his strength on one~ of the cars suc-
ceeded. as he had at first intended, in ,
breaking it. I seized the other, and at the !
same time dealt him a blow which laid
him flat in the bottom of the boat, and ,
then paddled for all I was worth for the ;
schooner. '
It being dark the crew supposed I was
one of their own gang who had been left
on shore, and did not oppose my boarding
the vessel. When they saw the trap they 9
had fallen into, however, there was a gen- ;
eral uproar. and had it not been for the
interference of the captain I would cer-
tainly have been thrown overboard.
I looked about the vessel and found that
preparations had already been .made- to
land the cargo before daylight. The beat
had been loaded down'to the gunwale arid
was about to start for shore when I stepped
on deck. - ' ' ‘
“Well,” asked the captain, “what. do
you propose doing?”
I informed him that the vessel was now
under seizure, and that nothing should he
landed until I had received my instruc-
tions from Ottawa. .
Here I was, alone on board a piratlcal
vessel, with six about as tough looking
out throats as one will meet within a day’s
journey through the slums of any large
city, and-twenty miles from the nearest
point from which I could hope to obtain
any assiStance, as I was right in the heart
of one of thc'worst smuggling districts on
the Atlantic coast.
“Well,” said the captain, ‘ ‘as the schooner
is now in your possession, I suppose you .
will have no objection to our pulling her
into the wharf and making her easy” To
which I assented.
The casks and cases which ,had been
stowed in the boat. were again placed on
deck, and a line was run to theshors _ by
which the vessel was warped alongside the,
wharf and made fast. The captain and
crew then jumped ashore and left me in
full possession without saying a word
They had not been gone twenty minutes
when it suddenly dawned upon me that
the captain had not taken the seizure .of '
his vessel so quietly for nothing. There
was something up, and if an attempt was
to be made to recapture the craft airing-
side” the wharf was not the placeifor' me, to
attempt to defendmy prize. . l according-

from the shore I let go the anchor. and

By this time it was daylight and look-
in g toward the shore I saw agang of about
a dozen men, one of whom carried a shot-
gun, ceming. down, .towardi~,the wharf,
where they ‘had expected t‘o’board her with-

When .tliesmu'gglers and. theirpals had
key wrench in the cabin, and set to work
to detach her steering gear. I managed to
get the wheel off, which I threw overboard,
and dislocated the rest offthe apparatus, so
as to render ' it, completely 'unservieeable
for ‘ a little 'while at . least.‘ Either the
strength or stock of rock ammunition of
my assailants had become exhausted, and
for a. 'while there was a suspension of hos-
tilities. Of this lull I took advantage and
wrecked in every possible way tackle and
i rigging, so that if after I left the craft an
attempt was made to run her out to sea it
could not be accomplished without consid-
erable delay.
After I had carried my work of destruc-
‘ tion to a point when I thought it ceased to
be further necessary in the eyes of the law
began to think of my departure, which
must be commenced as early after dark-
ness closed down as possible. I got every-
thing ready, oars muffled, and a lantern
hung upon deck, that they might be more
likely to think I was keeping watch after
I had left the schooner. Before stepping
from the deck into the boat Ifired two
shots from my revolver into the air, to let
them see I was still alive, and then quiet-
ly shoved off from the side of the vessel
farthest from the shore, and commenced
my pull along the coast toward the nearest
house, which I knew to be about five
miles distant. I arrived there, and at- once
making known my mission secured a
horse and buggy and drove with all possi-
ble haste to the nearest town, about fifteen
miles distant, where I knew there was
tugboat to be obtained. -
I was not long in securing the services
of this craft, and the assistance of four
well armed men, whom I knew I could
rely upon in case we had to fight. The
tug was soon pulling her way - toward the
point where I had left the schooner, which
we reached the following morning about
daylight. As we steamed around the
point wc‘ could see that the smugglers had
taken possession of the vessel and were
landing the cargo upon the beach. Run-
ning up alongside we made fast and
jumped on board. The captain and his
gang commenced to show fight, but the
sight of our revolvers, five of them drawn
in battle array, quieted the fighting pro-
pensities of the pirates, who, however,
when they saw us manning the Windlass
to raise anchor. were disposed to resist.
but concluded not to. ,
‘ As we tripped the anchor the captain,
who still remained On board With Six or
seven of his crew, asked us if we were not
,goi’nggto put him on shore, to which I re-
plied‘l‘noé—that we intended taking them

a splash, and looking" around saw the cap-
tain‘and his crew iall swimming for the
shore for dear life. From this out we were
unmolested, and, after a few hours’ sail, I

Cleansing the Churn.
When the churning for the day has
been finished, take apail of boiling water,
dipper in hand, and wash down all small
particles of butter that may stick to in-
side of churn, allowing same to run out
at milk outlet. Next add about ten gal-
lons of boiling water to a 300 gallon
churn; put on covers—turning by hand,
giving vent at each turn for three or four
turns—then put belt on churn for five
minutes, allowing small vent to be open
during churning. ' Next draw ofl water,
keep covers on tight, steam gently for
five or ten minutes. inserting steam hose
at milk outlet. The steaming must be
carefully done the first time.
After steaming, add ten or more gal-
lons cold brine (very strong); put covers
on and turn by hand several times.
Care must be exercised here to prevent
the churn from collapsing, by leaving a
email vent open. Put On the belt and
churn ten or more minutes until the
wood is cold. You will observe this last
brine churning renders the wood hard
by being absorbed into the surface of
the wood; also removes all loose wood
fiber and grease, making the churn white
and sweet.
Chums that have not been treated to
this method will not be white until sev-
eral treatments. After once perfectly
sweet one treatment each week will be
sufficient during warm weather, and
once in ten days in cold weather.—
Robert McBeth in Creamery Journal.
Nasty Whey Visits.
The practice of carrying the night‘s
and morning’s milk to the factory in one
can is a custom that should be avoided
from May 15 to Oct. 1, especially if the
yesterday’s sour whey is to be trans—
ported back home in the same can. It
is wonderful what foolish things some
patrons will do, and then expect that
the cheese maker is going to make the ’
best. I am about sure that the many
fatal cases of cheese poisoning—tyrotox-
icon—are traceable back to carrying rot-
ten whey in the milk can; the trans-
mitting of the germs of putrefaction
from a never washed, ever germ breed-
ing and stinking whey vat to the milk.
In additon to the usual sermon about
better cows and cheaper food. we do
need—some of us—a full sermon of gen- ;
nine John Calvin orthodoxy hurled at
us for our sins of mixing the result of
dirty hands, clean milk, sour whey and
rusty milk cans prbmiscuously together,
all in one original package. Why don’t
we stop it‘leJohn Gould in Hoard’s
Dairyman.
‘ ; Jersey vs. Holstein.
speaking of a butter test that was
made .in Europe between Holstein and
J ersey, Board's Dairyman says: , ’
In these days and in ‘thiscountry,
where the butter yield determines the
value of milk more and more, as prog—
ressgoes on, it is not hard to see that
the test revealed that the Jersey would
be the “mere'valuable cow, for as milk
runs between the two breeds any one
knows that forty-six pounds of Jersey
milk has more-:butter in it than fifty-
four pounds cf Holstein-Friesian milk,
and each was made in Europe at the
same expenditure of food.
Uniformly Good Butter.
The way to make uniformly good but-
ter is'to make'it just right from uniform
cream. Every creameryman has the
right to insist that when he buys cream
it shall be _ prepared in the way best
adaptedtohis p . He himself can
instruct his pawswhst that may it». '

The fact of a man being an. inventor does
not mean that his inventions will benefit
the community at large. The greatestin-

takes better ability and more of it to make
money out of an invention than it does to

The best business ability is not always

relatively small. The capital employed is
relatively small. Those with business

tively a small cost. and give to the farmer
the benefit of their organised business and

men could feed 150‘ horses inn very short
time. The 'water was not carriedto the
stalls, it was piped there. All of the-re
ceptacles for drinking water were 'on‘the
same level, and all that was necessary was
to have these connected with a common
source, and as long as thatwas full_‘of
water the receptacles at each stall were
full to the same level. Thus by supplying
water at one place in the barn all‘were
supplied. The stall drinking fountains or
receptacles were supplied through one
inch iron pipe from a tank whichwason

The feeding in the stable mentioned is
done by means of carts which run over the
tops of the stalls. A simple track is above

the mangevs, and a large, plain cart with
an opening at the end and side is provided.
The feed, of whatever kind, is placed in the
cart, which is pushed along abbve the stalls
by a man who distributes the proper quan-
tity into the feed box. This saves all other
carrying. The bedding—shavings or cut
straw—is distributed in the same way, but
instead of being taken out at the end ohhe
- cart it is taken. out at the side, so that none
of it gets into the feed box, but rather over
it and on the floor. It may be said that
hay cannot be distributed in proper quan.
titles from acart'of this kind. I under-
stand, however, that business men who
have studied the economical feeding of
stock never. feed hay in bulk or in loose
form, but that it is cut and fed. as a chop
feed of one kind or another. The same is
true. of fodder or any other kind of feed.
The feed in a barn of this kind‘is prepared
above and dropped through a hole in the
floor into the cart. Usually it is prepared
in large quantities,'so that one can draw a
slide and let it fall into the box without
unnecessary labor.
In the plan herewith is shown a plain,
straightforward kind of a stock barn, ar-
ranged according to the general plan out-
lined. The stalls face each other in two
lines, and over each is a " for the cart
above mentioned. There are many details
in connection with a barn of this kind
which maybe considered. For instance,
the floor. The idea of a heavy board floor
laid on sleepers with space below is cer-
tainly obnoxious, and not calculated to
contribute to the good condition of the
stock. The filth which would render foul
such a building would be no more health-
ful for stock than for human beings. The
stock has a market value, and its health
contributes to the profit of those engaged
in caring for it. If a board floor is used it
PLAN. .
should be laid on a cement, concrete base,
and should drain to proper concrete gutr
ters, all of which should be thoroughly
washed out. A'vulcanite or tar pavement
would bea good investment for a stock
barn. It is permanent, and at the same
time sufiiciently soft not to injure the
stock that is constantly standing on it. It
could be properly slanted and drained, so
that by slashing it could be kept- entirely-
clean. The writer once made a stable for
a transfer company that employed a large
number of hacks, busses, coupes, etc.
These ‘coupes were on the first floor, and
the stalls were on the second floor. ‘ A wa-
terproof floor of wood was made through a
liberal use of felt and vulcanitc.
Any solid waterproof fioor.’ no matter
how hard it is, will not injure the stock
when standing on it, provided it is prop-
erly bedded.
In this article the writer has undertaken
to adopt the principles of construction
adopted in first class street car barns to
one to be used by a stock raiser. The mat-
ter of size and arrangement on the second
floor. is one of detail. _
