The Bed of Old Atlantic. The topography of the Atlantic Ocean bed is now almost as well known as if it were dry land. The charts repreient it as a huge trough of varying depths, ex tending from pole to pole. Here and there are rocky peaks, like that of Tener iffe, or huge mountains of sand, like the Banks of Newfoundland, which reach up to or above the surface. Between Ire land and Newfoundland there is a re markable submarine plain. This great level stretoh of ocean bottom is always referred to as the"telegraph or cable plateau,'' because of the fact of the main submarine cables being stretched across it. This plateau is believed to be a con tinuation of the great water shed which, between the latitudes of forty and fifty degrees north, surrounds the earth, and divides the waters which flow south from those which flow toward the north.— New York Dispatch.

There are two species, the black and white spotted and the 'pure white treed. Few keep guineas, on account of their noisy manner, which at times grows tiresome; yet chicken thieves hold them ns great enemies, a 9 they give an alarm even at midnight, if strangers come among them.—New York Independent. TREATMENT OF TOMATO PLANTS. The succulent vegetable, the tomato— once despised—is now the subject of great attention. The following is good advice in the treatment of the plantt Set out plants when six inches high and hill up well until the height of a foot is reached. Train the branches apart. Throw around the plant wood ashes which will at once act as a fertilizer and a poison to bugs and disease. The roots will be thrown out by the hilling process aod growth forced. The hill acts as a good bed for the fruit to rest on nnd prevents rot.—American Agriculturist. ROTATION IN TUE GARDEN. It is a good thing in the cultivation of garden not to grow the same vegetables or plants year after year on the same spot, nor even two years iu succession on the same. It is liable to generate disease and to exhaust that poition of the soil in which the plant feeds or to remove the peculiar elements which it needs. Roots, deep-feeding and shallow-feeding plants should succeed each other. A strict system of rotation is always safest. Where a mixed lot of vegetables is grown, the same ground may be worked for an almost indefinite length of time by changing the location of each kind from year to year. Where cabbages, cauliflowers, radishes, tuiuips or other members of this same family were grown last year plant tomatoes, egg plant, pep pers, etc., this year, and sweet corn or vines next, and so ou.—Chicago Times. F>IZF. AND WEIGIIT OF JACKS. Jacks vary in size and weight con siderably. A medium size is 14 hands, and 800 pounds; the largest are 10 hands and upward, and 1200 to 1300 pound;. A jack recently sold in Kentucky for SI3OO, was lt>i hauds, ami weighed 1250 pounds. The measurements of this ani mal were: 121J inches from the nose to the root of tail, inches from tip to tip of ears, head 3i inches, girth 6(5, knee to ankle 12, around arms 26J, and around stifle 33 inches. This is not so large as one sold previously for $3250. The American jacks surpass those of any other country in all respects, but the French and Spanish blood has been used liberally in their improvement. Tue best of these animals are reared in Ken tucky and Tennessee. Ordinary mules sell iu those States for SIOO to $250 per head, according to size.—New York Times. now TO M\KE A HOT BED. Where the fanner or gardener is too far removed from business centers to buy plants cheaply of the seedsmen, a hot bed will be found convenient for starting many kinds of plants. The first step 1c be taken is getting ready the manure with which to supply the required bot tom heat. Fresh horse uianurc mixed thoroughly with one-third to one-half its bulk of leaves, or straw used for bed ding, or other manure that has been heated once, are the materials preferred. As soon as this compost begins to fer ment turn it agaiu and let remain until signs appear of a second fermentation. Make an excavation about two and •ne-half feet deep and of a size to suit the sash on hand or number of plantß re quired. Locate this pit in a dry spot, facing south or east. One sash will gen erally give early plants enough for a large family. The frame for tho sash or sashes may be made ot boards nailed to small posts at the corners. This frame ought to be about eighteen inches high at the back and twelve inches in front, to give the proper slope to catch the sunlight. To facilitate the opening and shutting of the frame, cross-pieces should be planed for the sash to slide on. Whin all is ready tread the manure down firmly in the pit, to the depth of two and a half feet; put on the sash and keep the pit closed until the heat rises. In two or three days spread on top soil to a depth of six or eight inches. Iu this seed may be sown in drills, two 01 three inches apart, for early tomatoes, egg-plant, cabbage, cauliflower, lettuce, pepper, etc.—Now York WoVld. RAISING DUCKS FOII MAKKET. When a pound of duck can be producsd for si* cents and sold for thirty-live cents or more early in the season, there is money in the business, especially as the eggs not needed for hatching usually sell well at the same price as hens' egijs. The duck usually lays about 150 eggs in a year. Those who desirt to raise duck lings for market prefer the Pckin, as they can be made to grow more rapidly than any other and arc thought to be gin laying a little earlier. They are not as large as some others, the drake weigh ing eight pounds according to the stand ard, whiph requires the same for the Cayuga, nine pounds for the Itouen ind Aylesbury, and ten pounds for the Mus covy, which, by the way, is not a duck, as the offspring of a cross between it and othei ducks are infertile like the mule and other hybrids. The duck should be one pound lighter than the drake. Most of those who breed ducklings for market hatch them in the incubator, m order to get them early enough to bring the high prices, and then bring them up in the brooder. It is claimed that a larger percentage of ducks' eggs than of hens' eggs will hatch in the incubator, and there is but little mortality among them if they have proper care. Among the requirements are soft food, and a plenty of water to drink and rinse their bills in, but it is not necessary that they should have it to swim in. They breathe through their nostrils, which should never be al lowed to clog up. They like a variety of food, and eat up anything that a hen will, and much more of it, and muU have all they will eat from the first to make ihtttu ready lg( mwkU early. With green food regularly every day, and scalded meal with plenty of meat scraps stirred in they grow fast. The yards should be kept as clean as possible, and the pens for both young and old ducks should be in a dry place, and with a board floor and plenty of stiaw or other litter, as damp ground, or being out in a cald stirm or a heavy shower, will quickly kill young ducklings, at least until well feathered. They should not be given very cold water to drink, as it causes cramps, which are sometimes fatal. They need larger yards or a more frequent change of location than chickens, as tilth soon kills them, and, in fact, they should not be crowde.l in their brooders' pens or yards.—Boston Cultivator. FARM AND GARDEN NOTEB. Don't starve the soil or the stock. Pigs in the clover is a farm game. Feeding skimpingly is throwing money away. The secret of good service is to keep the horses iu a healthy, thriving con dition. The eggplant may be successfully grown without a hotbed by any one who will take pains to learn its habits. Oatmeal is one of the very best feed* that can be supplied to very young poul try ; pin-head oatmeal is the best. It pays to feed the young fowls liber allj, as once stunted they will never re gain their vigor, no matter how well fed. Cornmjal and wheat bran made into a mush with mdk is a good feed for duck lings, muca better than cornineal alone. It would be as unreasonable to expect a field of rag weeds to produce fine wool as for a field of weeds to produce golden butter. Don't cool off the stables before milk ing. It makes the CJWS hold up their milk, and frequently tney become fretful and kick. The most difficult thing to teach a c >lt is to back up. It is not natural for him, and if he appears a little stubborn don't yank him. It is a mistake to think that horses at light work can be kept entirely on hay. Such horses soon fall off in flesh and do not thrive. If sheep raisers have followed the ad vice given in thesa columns, the old ewes are all fat now and can be sold for a fine price. Study and plan for the coming season's work no that when it is here you will be ready to be up and at it, and know what you want to do. Sheep are used in Northwestern India as a beast of burden. They are sure footed, and carry a burden of fifteen to twenty pounds each. Manage to use your horses a little every day during the winter. S:eady everyday work tends to keep them sound and in good health. Even when the eggs are set under a hen it will be bast to exainiue them af ■ ter the sixth or seventh day and takeout all that are infertile. Wood ashes, besides setting free the ammonia of the droppings, blea;'ies the shanks of the fowls and should not be emptied in the poultry house. If eggs are sent some distance it will be best to unpack carefully and lay in a bread basket for twenty-four hours be fore putting them under a hen. In the economical management of poultry it is as much of an item to know how to feed them as it Is with any other kind of stock kept on the farm. A good way to give the young poultry a good start is to keep them free from vermin and feed them liberally; much depends upon the start they get. Don't forget the bran mash occasion ally. This and a few roots and apples will do more toward keeping a horse in condition than increase of grain when he is getting a fair allowance. A speaker at a recent horticultural meeting reported by the Nebiaska Far mer, advised plantiug each variety of apple in the same row or rows "to facili tate spraying, as the the different sorts do not all blossom at the same time." The parsnip endures the cold without injury. Some varieties that root alto gether below the ground may be left where they grow all winter. The part above the surface will turn soft after re peated freezing and thawiug, but the bulk of the root will be sweeter and richer than if gathered and put In cellar befoie frost came. In many countries of Europe turnip tops are very much relished in spring, served up with potatoes and bacon. Even in our Southern States they bring a higher price than cabba {es. The seed) are thickly sown in the fall, the turnip) remain in the ground all winter, and early in the spring when the tops begin to grow they are cut for use. Largest fruit far.ll in t!ie World. Howell County, Missouri, will soon have the largest fruit farm in the world, if it has not already that honor. A com pany has been organized by South Bend, Evansville and Spriugtield capitalists for the purpose of conveiting 12,000 acres near Brandsville into an immense fruit furm, work to commence within thirty day*. There is plenty of money backiug tho scheme. The compauy proposes to build a cold stoiage plant, evaporator and distillery.

If it is white, with a slightly yellowish or straw-«olored tint, it is good. If it is blue-white or has black specks, it is bad. If a little lump thrown against a dry perpendicular surface ad heres, it is good. If it falls in powder, it is bad. If a portion squeezed in the hand retains the shape given by the pressure, it is gcod.—St. Louis Re public. CAN VOD BOIL A HAM? Boiling a ham is not the simple thing it seems. It should bo scraped and washed carefully and left in water over sight. In the morning when the water —enough to cover the ham —is nearly boiling, lay the ham in and keep the water in a simmer. When it has boiled about an hour throw in two carrots, four onions, two heads of celery, a sprig of parsley, two or three blades of mace and four cloves. If the ham is very salt, it is well to change the water before put ting in the seasoning, but if you do, be sure to change to boiling water. To obtain tenderness aud mellowness the ham must not be allowed to boil hard, only simmer. When the ham is done, set it off in its own water and let it cool in it; by this means it will retain its moisture. When cool take it out, skin it and dred;;e bread crumbs and pepper over it and set it in the oven until it browns.---New York World. HOW TO CLEAN DRESSES. Get five cents' worth of soapbark from the druggist (about a teacupful). For one dress take half of it and steep in about one quart of boiling water for about half an hour or more, theu strain through a cloth. For a silk dross, while the liquid is warm, take a piece of white flannel and dip into it at intervals, and rub the silk, or satin, with it till it seems cleansed. When done, pull the material straight, and hang it to dry. Dj not iron either the silk or satin. If the dres* is very much soiled, use clean liquor to rinse it; but do not use clear water for silk, or it will not stiffen up well. For a woolen dress dip the part to oe cleansed, or the whole of it, if needed, into the liquor. This can be rinsed in the same after washing, or in clean warm water. If very dirty put the dress to soak in a tub in the liquor with more water added before cleaning or washing. The woolen goods should be picsied until it is quite dry. Water in which potatoes have been boiled will cleause delicate colored woolen or worsted goods. The dress should be wet all over. Use no soap. Rinse in clear warm water. Press while still damp. This will not iujure the most delicate colors.—Boston Cultivator. SOME KKCU'BS FOH SOUPS.

The Silk of Spiders. In a French publication there is i» paper by lie v. P. Cambone on the si It; of spiders. After giving a history of the attempts to obtain and use the silk of spiders, he gives come interesting experi ments of his own, made on a orb weaving spider of Madagascar. He finds that the spider furnishes the most silk after she has iaid her From oie spider there was obtaioed in twenty seven days nearly four thousand meters of silk—over three miles. The silk was of a golden yellow color. He gives the plan of an apparatus for Windiu3 the silk, which, however, as he says, is imperfect. Nothing, however, was done as to the raising and keeping of the spiders in large numbers, undoubtedly the most serious question. Plants and Pianos.

SERIOUS FACTS ABOUT BREAD Which flMiekceren Uliould Earnestly ('•■•ldrr. A serious danger menaces the health lof the people of this country in the nu merous alum baking powders that are jiow being urged upon the public. There is no question as to the detr imental effect of these powders upon the system. Every Board of Health, every physician, will tell you of the unwhole some qualities they add to the food. Some countries have absolutely pro hibited the sale of bread containing alum. Even small doses of alum, given to children, have produced fatal results, while cases of heartburn, indigestion, griping, constipation, dyspepsia, and various kindred gastric troubles from irritation of the mucous membrane, caused by the continuous use of food prepared with the alum or alum-phos phate powders, are familiar in the prac tice of every physician. | It is not possible that any prudent housewife, any loving mother, will knowingly use an article of food that will injure the health of her household, or perhaps cause the death of her chil dren. How shall the dangerous alum powders be distinguished? And how shall the danger to health from their use be 'avoided? Generally, alum powders may be known [from the price at which they are sold, 'or from the fact that they are accom panied by a gift, are disposed of under somo scheme. The alum powder costs but a few cents a pound to make, and is often sold at 20 or 25 cents a pound. If some present is given with it, the price may be 30, 40 or 50 cents a pound. It is impossible to name all the alum powders in the market, but any baking powder sold at a low price, or adver tized as costing only half as much as cream of tartar powders, accompanied by a present, or disposed of under any scheme, is of this class, detrimental to health, and to be avoided. But the easy, safe, and certain protec tion of our bread, biscuit and cake from all danger of unwholesomeness is in the use of the Royal Baking Powder only. This powder is mentioned because of the innumerable reports in its favor by high medical authorities, by the U. S. Gov ernment, and by the official chemists and Boards of Health, which leave no doubt as to its entire freedom from alum, lime and ammonia, its absolute purity and wholesomeness. While its use is thus a safeguard against the poisonous alum powders it is satisfactory at the same time to know that it makes the whitest, lightest, sweetest and most delicious food, which will keep moist and fresh longer, and that can be eaten with im munity hot or cold, stale or fresh, and also that owing to its greater strength it is more economical than others. These facts should incline consumers to turn a deaf ear to all importunities to buy the inferior powder. If a grocer urges the sale of the cheap, impure, alum brands, it should be bcrno in mind that it is because he can make more profit on them. The wise housekeeper will decline in all cases to take them. Talt no eh una 8 through uling a doubt ful article where DO important a matter as the heatt\ or lite of dear one» it at itake.
