eec-ac FARM MATTERS. To Know Whut the Farm In Doing, There Is a large Held for tlie farmer to work over In order to find out wbnt the receipt and expenses are. The fnrmnr know the price ho received for bis butter, but he may not know the ost. It la not difficult to arrive at an pgtlmnte of the cost of any article If tccountt are kept, rrofttvsslve farm ers keep an account with each animal, rclglilng their food and charging there for. Even the fields are entered in a Dook and accounts kept with them. It is extra work, but It Is the only way (o know what the farm Is doing, ' Row Ttlnle Are Killed. Two reni n' study of enemies of birds, taken together with twenty-live years irevlous experience, places their prin cipal enemies about in the following )rder, according to their importance: Cats, EnglUh sparrows, gunners, boys, ;rows, Jays, hawks, squirrels, black makes. Foxes, skunks, weasels and Other smnll mammals are also to be reckoned with; also owls, shrikes and I few others. These, however, are aot of great Importance as enemies of the smaller, useful birds. Most form ers keep too many cats, and In many localities vagrant cats are numerous. In good hunting ground It is a poor ?at that will-not destroy fifty birds each year, mostly young in the nests or Inexperienced fledglings. A great many older birds also fall victims to the cat.

There is very little A STBONQ HOO HOLDBB. trouble placing this noose. It is tight ened when in place by twisting the helve. Thero Is little danger of the tog's biting one's band when using It. When we use the contrivance on a horse that balks we call It a "per suader." In his case it is used on the andcr Jaw, By twisting it mercifully a minute, more or less, the horse will tart as well as ever. We used It on one of our horses quite a number of times. Have no use for it now. A. C. Hlbbard, in Ohio Farmer. Railing Youns Unoka For Market. I keep only a few Pekln ducks, thir teen, and four drakes, at present. I feed a mash composed of equal parts meal and bran and fifteen per cent, ground beef scrap, all they will eat twice a day, and sometimes crocked ;orn at noon. In the winter I feed rowen and some turnips or potatoes. In summer they run in the pasture, so I do not give vegetable food, but feed more bran and less beef scrap. I sold last year nearly 300 ducklings when from seven to twelve weeks old. I hatch them under hens and In an In cubator. I don't sell any eggs except for hatching. Take the young ducks away from the hens or out of the in cubator coon after all are hatched, then remove to brooder, but do not feed for twenty-four or thirty-six hours. For a few days I feed equal parts rolled oats and cracker crumbs or bran, wet up with milk, and add five per cent, coarse sand. From four days to three weeks old, I give them equal parts rolled onts and bran, ten per cent, corn meal and five per cent, fine beef scrap, and use some green feed. From six to eight weeks old I give equal parts meal, biuu and ont meal feed and five or ten per cent, beef scrap. Grit Is kept before them after a day or two. From eight to ten or twelve weeks old feed one-half meal and one-half bran and oat feed, and feed tucin three or four times a day. I keep them In flocks of twe.it; -five or fifty, and yard clostly, after Waving brooder at from two to three weeks old. They bod no protection last year from storms and sun except plank or boards laid over a coruor of tho pens. I shall build a shed this year forty feet long, six feet wide, five feet high In front and two and a half feet at back. Such a shed. I think, will ac commodate them until ready for mar ket. In dressing them for market I pick them dry, then put them lu a tub of water through the day; at night turn off tho water, which has become warm and bloody, and put in fresh water and ice. Let tliem remain in this until morning, .then take them out and after they drain awhile, pack fh boxes with Ice between each layer of ducks and on top. The first lot of twelve that I Willed Inst year weighed 55 7-16 pounds at eight ard a half weeks old. J. B. Blckuell, in Orange Judd Farmer. Stand by the Farm. Kvery Uttlo while we bear of some farmer who bas sold the old place and moved away to town to spend the rest of his days. It always gives us a sad feeling to l'earu of these departures. Bad not only because we miss the old familiar faces, but more so for the rea son that wo do not believe -that these friends are going to find tbe happiness they anticipate. It means a great deal for t man past the meridian of Ufa to tear up the ties which have bound bin) to tbe farm all bis life long and wove away to' the city. , We bare known inauy Instance where men have done this and soon gone to tbelr long homes. The change from tbe free, active life out of doors to tbe sedentary life of tha city quickly undermined tbelr health and they soon passed away. ui rn K mey qq jiv a gooa many years, it Is not like...- that they will ever enjoy themsclw uy notter than they did on tho far.u. , I the pltla. ble sights we know of 1Ik most so Is the old farmer vibrating bock and forth between the house and tbe store, tho loafing place about town, restlcFS, uneasy, and hardly knowing what to do with himself from morning till night. One day Is Just like another. Talk about the monotony of farm life! The monotony of city life as it pre sents Itself to the farmer who bos sold out and gone there to live is absolutely beyond description. And then, what a difference between the fresh, pure nlr and food of the country 'and that of the city! There used to be milk fresh and sweet from the cow, vegetables right from the ground, fruit, berries and eggs Just brought In. Now everything is stale and hardly endurable to the man who knows what fresh form produce is. Wrnt wonder If In n little while he begins to long for the old home life! Bu it is too late now. Tho little nest egg be and bis wife have saved up by the work on the farm some way hai disappeared by piecemeal until now be could not buy. bock the form If he wanted to ever so bod. Taxes, water rents, fuel and repairs keep up a constant gnawing ot the little store. Perhaps there may be sickness, which eats a big hole Into the sin-plus. The old mon and his wife see now that they will do well if they save enough out of the form to give them a decent burial when their time conies. Cling to tbe old home form. K strength falls and you see that you can no longer keep things up ns In the days of manhood's prime, hire sonic one to do the heavy work, let out some of the plow land, but keep your band on the helm. Be master of your own form. It will be n home to you as long as you will wont n borne In this world. Perbnps you may hove some good son or daughter who would come on the farm and do the hard work. If so, you arc happy, Indeed; but keep the deed in your own name. Perhaps It will be better to build a separate bouse for them. Both of you may be the happier for that. Anyway, keep your hold on things all the way through. And the old place will shelter and bless you til the end. E. L. Vincent In New York Tribune Fnruier. The Braca Frame Barn. With the scarcity of heavy timber and consequent cost, is It not time farmers who are to erect barns should give some study to the newer methods of framing, where no timber is thicker than two inches and from six to eight Inches wide. The use of modern hoy and grain elevating machinery calls for barna with open centers. Upper cross-ties, collar-beams, etc., are In tbe way, and are quite unnecessary. Tbe brace frame which Is here Illustrated Is the newest thing in born farming, and at the on mo time Is very much stronger than the old-foshloncd frame made of squoro timber of eight to twelve Inches on a side. It is about half as costly, and n first-class carpen ter Is not required to erect it. In the brace-framo there are no tim bers larger than two by eight Inches. These are doubled and trebled where great strength is required. Where tensile strength Is required, a two by eight is nearly as good as au eight Inch square stick tenoned and fustencd In the post mortise with a pin. In tble frame there is no mortise or tenons The frame Is put together with spikes. Hay Is taken through the open centre driveway with bridge, or more con veniently at end of barn, where the centre Is open to the peak. The ad vantages of this alono are manifold. Tho Illustrations show clearly the manner of framing any size bam, and its wonderful simplicity. All thes arc planned with a basement.

Unfinished mahogany is the popular way of having all tbe furniture of this beautiful wood. Tbe cabinetmakers now omit the high polish upon dining room chairs and tables, or the spindle legged or claw-footed furniture of bed. room and pa.ijw. Until very recently, tne ood house wife thought tbat It was necessary to have chairs and tables oiled and pol ished until they were a veritable mir ror. Now all this Is changed, and the dull, dark, unpolished finish Is the cor rcct thing. The frames of pictures that itro mode of mahogany are now also In an un finished state. This rich wood Is ever popular for water colors, prints and etchings. But those that me highly polished are not now in fashion. Cscfut fait. Such humble things are useful for the toilet, or In aiding health, that the greater part of the world does not know of the helpful little things that are ever close at hand. Salt, plain table salt, is an article that Is useful in many ways beside that of helping to niaku food savory. It is especially beneficial to bathe tired or weak eyes, and a pinch in warm water will cure the dlstiguilng inflam mation that comes from overwork or from being in the wind. Salt in the water will also overcome the redness of the lids. A little salt should occasionally be placed in the water wltn which the teeth are brushed, as it Ji'.-Ips to harden the gums. When It Is usrd for u gargle It will overcome sore tVroat, If used soon enough, and it is excellent to allay any slight irritation of tbe throat. - To Keen Kcjrs l i.i. According to the Loudon Lancet, tho change In an egg from a fresh to a stale condition is partly due to a loss of moisture and partly t-j a "disturb ance of equilibrium cnusJ by external agencies." This can bo avoided, and the eggs kept fresh, that scientific Jour nal alleges, by simply coating the shell with greaso as soon as it is laid and before it bas time to cool. Eggs treat ed in this way, the Lancet declares, are so well preserved mouths after they are laid that they cannot be distin guished from ones newly presented by tbe ben. It Is also declared that eggs can be kept fresh for six months by dipping them as soon as they are taken from the nest lu a strong solutiou of silicate of soda, which stops up tbe pores of the shell and hermetically seals tbe egg. If an egg once gets cold It Is of no use to treat it after these recipes, for it will then be past preserving, and ago will surely render It unfit f'-r anything but bad actors and unpopular spellbinders. 7".

Central Tradt Condition T. G. Dun & Co.'s "Weekly Review of Trade," ssys: "Fuel shortage Is still the one seri ously disturbing element in the indui trial situation. Transporting facilities have been diverted from other merchan dise to the disadvantage of shippers, yet iron furnaces are unable to secure suf ficient supplies of coke, and many other manufacturing plants are closed because of inadequate coal deliveries. "Retail trade was accelerated by the customary clearance sales, especially in dry goods and kindred branches. Trav eling men are sending in large orders for spring goods. "Quiet conditions in the iron and steel markets do not mean dullness or diminishing consumption, but merely the oversold condition of furnaces and mills, together with great uncertainty about keeping plants active on a day-to-day supply of fuel. New plans, constantly come forward for large office buildings, notably at the West, which means vigorous consump tion of structural steel and the demands from car builders are phenomenal. Practically the entire capacity of the leading plants is already booked for six months, and at manv concerns the last half of the year will bring no idleness unless orders are canceled. "Eastern manufacturers of footwear ire fully employed on spring shoes. 2uiet conditions in leather have been lucccedcd by an increased demand for hemlock sole and standard upper. Last week's slight recovery in the hide msr tct was not sustained. Dryjroods trad ing has increased in volume.

Along one of the walks running northward toward the Mall the other day an aged colored woman shambled. She seemed weary and weak, and her ill-matched and much-patched clothes were kept in place by pins and strings. As she came abreast of the big stat ues of Burns and Scott a your.g girl with a Boston terrier passed her. The girl was walking rapidly she was giv ing her dog its morning exercise but something made her pause and look back at the shambling figure. Perhaps the old colored woman reminded her of a once-endeared old "mammy," for she was a Southern girl; at any rate, her hand went into her chatelaine bag and drew out a dollar bill. Then, in spite of the protests of the terrier, the girl followed the dusky fig ure. But as she approached her heart seemed to fail her, and the woman, who sat on a bench and sketched this little vignette, heard her murmur: "She might feel insulted." Then she tapped the old figure on the shoulder. "Excuse mc, aunty," she said. "I think you dropped this." She held out the bill, but the colored woman gave a wistful look at it and shook her head. "No, honey; no, honey," she affirm ed, with much politncss. "I didn't drap that; 'deed an' I didn't, honey." "Oh," persisted the girl, laughing, "you didn't know it, maybe, but 1 reckon you dropped it." And pushing the bill into one of auntie's hands, she rapidly turned and ran away, the terrier at her heels. For a moment the surprised recipient of the gift seemed dazed, and looked Jong and steadily at the dollar bill. Then she turned to the woman on the bench. "I did need dis dollah, I tell you. miss, an' dc Lawd He done sent dat blessed chile to pick it up for me." In Days of Old. In the early rart of the eighteenth century the London theatres opened at six o'clock, and as it was, therefore, difficult for playgoers to arrive punc tually, and obtain seats, many of them sent footmen, or hired men from the streets, to secure places for them. These sat in the seats until those who had sent them came, and the custom prevailed until 1766. when the system now in force was adopted: A footman f.sed to be sent early to take places and keep thcin by the simple but ef fectual plan of sitting on them till hu masters and mistresses arrived. Such a practice would now be considered an intolerable nuisance; but . people in those days were much less particular. and appear to have thought nothing of sitting for an act or two cheek by iowI with a flunky or, worse, with a vagabond picked up in the street.

When a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, because its component parts ore known to be wholesome and the remedy itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effect!;, is Syrup of Figs and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers. Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, Irritating, or nauseating .and which cleanses tile system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old-time cathartics and modern Imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrup of Figs. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also is our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous deal ers sometimes offer to Increase their profits.

The rea- son for these enormous prices- is nat urally to be found in the scarcity of the egg. The bird is extinct, and no over seventy of its eggs are in exist ence. To be superior to luxury is ofterr better than being accustomed to it, and healthier, too. O00r0OO000O0OOOOCKO0) ; I ST.
