FARM NOTES.
nm Ee.
—If plants are troubled with white worms
in the soil, an easy method of extermina-
tion is said to be sulphur matches stuck
well down into the soil, sulphur end down.
A few drops of carbolic acid ina dipper of
water is also good, and lime water in the
proportion of a cup of unslacked lime to a
~a’’ of water is the old stanby. Put a cork
i drainage liole of pot and saturate the
soil thoroughly with the clear lime water
before allowing it to run away.
—The best medicine that can be given
swine in cholera or other times is some-
thing to keep them well and in good ap-
petite. It is hard to successfully doctor a
sick hog. One afflicted with cholera, or
the several kinds of disease known as such,
may, if it will drink, be given something
to soothe and heal the inflamed stomach
and bowel linings. A half pail of sweet
skim-milk, in which are stirred a half doz-
en raw eggs, isa very good and grateful
dose. For well hogs that are fattening
this is recommended, composed of articles
all well tried and approved for many years:
Ten pounds of slacked lime, equal bulk of
wood ashes and one of powdered charcoal,
one pound of copperas crystals. Mix well
and put cne quart of mixture in each bar-
rel of water or slop given.
—Usually when fowls have what is
known as ‘‘twisted neck’’ or show signs of
vertigo the cause is pressure of blood on the
brain. The next point is, what causes the
pressure of blood on the brain ? Such fowls
are nearly always apparently healthy, and
in fact, should show good condition, as only
birds that are well fed suffer from such ail-
ment. When fowls are on a range they pro-
cure much more food than might be suppos-
ed and to give corn at night, especially in
summer, is to put them in such a condi-
tion as mentioned. Of course, in the win-
ter season corn may be used, farmers and
poultry men should understand that when
a hen has free range she becomes very fat
and has all the opportunity for procuring
more food than she needs. The fact that a
hen may not appear fat may be a delusion.
If all of the fowls—hens and chicks—are
affected, it is a sure sign that something is
wrong with the food. It is true that the
seeds of some weeds may he at fault, but
usually the cause is high feeding. The
remedy is to put the birds up and give
them nothing for 48 hours ; then give one
ounce of lean meat to each hen once a day
for ten days—no other food—and after that
feed a variety once a day.-— Farm and Fire-
side.
—Some years ago it occurred to me to
stack a little ice outdoors to save the troub-
le of taking it from the icehouse, writes a
correspondent of the Connecticut Farmer.
The stack was made on the north side of a
building. In the expectation that warm
weather would quickly melt it, but little
was put up. It kept surprisingly, and
thereafter large quantities were stacked
yearly, until for several years past the out
of-doors stack has furnished ice for cream-
ery and household until about September
1st. There being a scarcity of ice this year,
I had to use an inferior quality, four or
five inches thick. The stack was about
thirty feet square and four feet high. It
has furnished ice to cool about 300 quarts
of milk per day in creamery, besides re-
frigerator in house. My method is to
spread a few inches of shavings on the
ground for the ice to rest on. stack the ice
and cover with shavings to a depth of about
a foot. I have found a low stack best, as
there seems to he comparatively little melt-
ed from the top to bottom; but if an open-
ing through the side covering lets the air
in it will cut away very fast, and the high-
er the stack is the more difficulty in keep-
ing the sides covered. I have used the
same shavings year after year. I doubt
whether it is important to have the stack
in the shade; the shavings getting moisture
from rain and from the ice, evaporation
keeps down the temperature.
—The icehouse is fast becoming a rec-
ognized feature of the up to date farm. For
preserving milk, meatsand in the cold stor-
age of fruits it can hardly be dispensed
with.
A cheap icehouse that can be quickly
erected by any farmer at a very slight out-
lay for materials is a matter of interest
which has recently keen considered in the
Ohio farmer as follows :
The size is determined by the length of
the planks to be used. Nine posts, rough
hewn, of suitable height, are provided, and
two put up at each corner, resting upon a
block of wood or stone orset in the ground.
The ninth post is placed at one side of the
door. The bottom planks all around are
thoroughly spiked to the posts and ‘may be
more firmly secured in place by, spiking
those at each corner. A plate of light
scantling secures the top in place. Now it
is ready for the ice.
Sprinkle on the ground a layer of saw-
dust about ten inches thick, then put in
the first layer of ice, about a foot away
from the plank walls. Fill this space sol-
idly with sawdust. Place the second tier
of ice, next put in position more planks,
and so on until the house is filled, storing
the ice and carrying up the walls together
and filling in between with sawdust. A
door is made by simply using two lengths
of plank on the front side. When the
house is full, a thick layer of sawdust is put
on top of the ice. Drainage is secured by
placing the structure on sloping ground. A
roof of boards with the cracks battened is
sufficient. With a little taste this may be
made quite pleasing in appearance.
Icehouses can have their appearance im-
proved by the free use of climbing vines.
These not only answer asan embellishment,
but serve a useful end in breaking the sun’s
rays and keeping the building much cooler
than it would be under full exposure. It
costs but little more to make small farm
buildings tasteful and picturesque in ap-
pearance than to have them look ugly and
cheap.
Here is a way that any one can store ice
without a house: The blocks of ice are
gathered and stacked up in some favorable
place and covered with a thick layer of
straw. In northern Ohio a store of ice
might last the season through. A similar
stack might be made to help out the regu-
lar supply. For one of these temporary
storehouses built against a bank the outer
wall is put up with straw. It is held in
place by boards and braces. The stack of
ice is covered by a thick layer of straw,
then a thatched roof is put over the whole.
An ice stack of this kind answers perfectly
when placed so that the water may natural-
ly drain away.
——Senator Allen introduced a resolu-
tion providing for a select committee of five
to investigate the war. He frankly declar-
ed that the present war commission would
bring in a whitewash verdict, and spoke of
it as the ‘‘Alger relief commission.’
FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
Cords are in high favor. Some waists
appear to have been fashioned of corded
satin or velvet, but the smartest of these
garments have actually been stitched over
with countless yards of fine cords, applied
horizontally, and all sewed on the fitted
coat or waist. It isa herculean labor to
sew on miles of velvet or satin cords; some
of them are very fine, but the effect is what
is desired and greatly admired this season.
Incorrect positions during the sleep cause
many stooped shoulders. The big, fat,
awful pillow of our grandmother’s day is
the worst kind of a horror. No pillow at
all is best, and after one hecomes accus-
tomed to sleeping that way it will be
found much more restful and altogether
comfortable. The best position for sleep is
to lie face downward, with the arms
straight at the sides. Of course I am fully
aware that most women sleep curled up
like little shrimps, but then, they can
change their ways if they will but try.
Borax is doubtless, the hest softener for
water in which woolens are to be washed,
especially for blankets or baby flannels.
Have the different waters of equal temper-
ature, never too hot for the comfort of the
hand, use thin suds of a good white soap,
rinse and dry the flannels by squeezing,
but never wringing, and hang them where
they cannot freeze.
Women are wearing guimpes in their
gowns cut after the fashion of those chil-
dren wear. I saw four of these among the
prettiest gowns at a recent matinee. The
prettiest one was a gown made of black
velvet, the skirt long with a draped flounce
and the jacket cut in what is usually
known as the baby lines about the throat.
The guimpe was of fine white lace laid
over pale blue satin reaching up toa wide
stock collar made of the two materials; a
lace cravat was caught in front by a pearl
pin. The edges of the bodice where the
guimpe was slipped in were outlined with
heavy black silk cording. Another gown
that was not so handsome, but very stylish
had a bronze-colored broadcloth cut quite
low around the throat, and off the should-
ers.
The guimpe was of finely tucked muslin,
ending in a stock collar of rose-colored vel-
vet. The muslin was unlined, but was
rather too thick to do more than suggest
the pink skin underneath. The wearing of
lace chemisette and collar is also becoming
quite a fashion.
At a tea the other day a charming
society woman of Baltimore wore
a gray broadcloth tailor gown. It was
opened a very little at the throat, and the
chemisette was of that thick Valenciennes
lace which is usually known as the imita-
tion, and is very white and rather thick.
There was no lining to the chemisette or
collar, but a narrow roll of turquoise satin
was tied about the throat and into a small
four-in-hand in front, the ends of it tucked
in with the chemisette under the jacket.
When she unfastened her jacket I noticed
she had on a dinner waist of heavy blue
satin and a ““V’’ back and front of this
transparent lace.
Have you seen the new watch fobs for
women ?
They are exactly like our grandfathers
used to wear, and, therefore, if you cannot
afford one, just ransack in that priceless
possession of old families—the garret—and
if you are able to put your hands on a fob,
then you are in the fashion.
The vigor of the hair depends upon the
food eaten daily. Why should it not,
when the vigor of the body is thus regulat-
ed? Ifa woman complains that her hair
is drying up and falling out she needs
nourishment, that which is found in brown
bread, plain vegetables, and whole or
cracked wheat, prunes and the berries
which supply iron. A course of sulphur
in the spring not only benefits the body,
but the hair as well.
I hear many complaints of dandruff, but
as there are two distinct classes, I do not
know any better way than to declare that
the white scale which drops from the
hair is healthy and proper, and merely
nature’s method of casting off useless par-
ticles of skin. The thick, yellow kind, is
another matter, for it means disease. It
should not be forced out by the comb, but
coaxed with vaseline, which is very friend-
ly to both scalp and hair. A shampoo
once in three or four weeks, clean brushes
and combs, and there you have the founda-
tion for a good head of hair. If you use
soap in the shampoo, rinse it out, every
particle of it, because it rots the hair if al-
lowed to remain. Shun ammonia, borax
and soda. as they have a tendency to dry
up the natural oil. Every night and morn-
ing pass the fingers through the strands,
gently rubbing tbe scalp to start a circula-
tion of blood in the hair cells. The brush-
ing may follow it, not merely to smooth
the tresses, but to clean them from what-
ever loose dirt they have accumulated.
I do not advocate very long hair. Take
my word for it, you will find it an awful
nuisance, but one you are loth to part with.
Heavy bair, 45 inches in length, was my
pride and joy for two years, and when my
physician ordered half of its length cut off
because my strength was going there, I
mourned it like a lost friend. But, oh,
what comfort I found in the new length !
It required but half the time to dress it,
and was infinitely easier to care for. I
have regulated its growth ever since.
Thickness of growth is the much-desired
quality, and this is attained by regular
cutting. Once a month is a good time,
and if the hair is sickly, singeing should
take the place of cutting. It should be
done by parting the hair over the forehead,
combing it down each side of the head, and
gathering the mass in one hand, and hold-
ing it near the blaze with the other until
the ends crisp. With weak, thin hair, a
tonic is absolutely necessary, even though
the rules of air and sunshine and water are
lived up to, and there is nothing better
than brandy and quinine used every other
night.
Big fans will not be carried for a season
yet, so that the wisest purchase to be made
is a little Recamier fan. It really is only
two inches and a half long, and it can most
economically be made of a bright brocaded
or chined silk, with pearl sticks. The gay
flowering of the silk shows on both sides
and a genuinely helpful breeze can be
raised by one of them. Modish women
carry their fans slung about the neck by a
long chain of false pearls or coral beads,
and the luxurious fan consists of ten thin
sticks of choice blonde shell, beautifully
inlaid and strung together by a lute ribbon.
This is also of the Recamier size.
At the start of the year a number of
handsome new tailor frocks have been no-
ticed, and chiefly in periwinkle blue.
Their waists fit, back and front, without a
wrinkle, the skirt is fully trained, of course
and a pronounced tendency is toward a re-
newal of what used to he known as a com-
plete suit; that is, a waist and a skirt, and
then a longish coat of the same goods.

Hobson at Honolulu.
No News as to His Weaknesses for Osculation
Ho~NoLuLy, Jan. 5.—Lieutenant Hobson
passed through here on December 31st, on
his way to join the Manila fleet. He was
entertained at luncheon by Special Agent
and Mrs. Sewall at the American Lega-
tion.
There was an impromptu public recep-
tion at the Y. M. C. A., and later again at
the Officers’ Club, and a popular demon-
stration at the wharf.
——Congressman-elect John L. Burnett,
of Alabama, who will probably be the
smallest man in the next House, is an able
lawyer. When he first appeared before the
Supreme court of Alabama to argue a case
he stood up behind a high bench on which
lawyers were accustomed to lay their hooks
and papers. ‘‘May it please the court—?’
began the diminutive counsel, when the
chief justice broke in: ‘‘Mr. Burnett, it is
the custom of lawyers to rise while address-
ing this court.”
——Speaker Reed on a recent cold night
was riding in a crowded car, the front door
of which the motorman persistently kept
open. Mr. Reed at last called to him and
asked why this was, “I want to keep
warm,”’ was the explanation. ‘‘So do the
rest of us,”’ said the Speaker. ‘Suppose
you shut the door.”” He was obeyed.
——Diseases often lurk in the blood be-
fore they openly manifest themselves.
Therefore keep the blood pure with Hood’s
Sarsaparilla.
Many People Cannot Drink
Coffee at night. It spoils their sleep. You can
drink Grain-O {when you please and sleep like a
top. For Grain-O does not stimulate ; it nourish-
es, cheers and feeds. Yet it looks and tastes like
the best coffee. For nervous persons, young peo-
ple and children Grain-O is the perfect drink.
Made from pure grains. Get a package from your
grocer to-day. Try it in place of coffee. 15 and
