FARM NOTES.
—Compost is simply fresh manure mix-
ed with muck, dirt or any absorbent mater-
ial that is in a fine condition. The heap is
kept under cover, and if a large supply of
material has been selected, making a bulky
heap, soapsuds and urine are thrown upon
the mass.
—The small farmer should produce the
best horses, as he is better prepared to
carefully mature the two or three colts un-
der his care, and by bandling them con-
stantly they are educated to work; but
most farmers do not appreciate theiradvan-
tage; they raise the scrubs, and let the larg-
er dealers raise those from which the most
money be made.
—The loss of a pint of milk in one day
from each animal in a herd amounts to
many quarts, and may represent one or two
dollars, or more. This will occur when
the stalls are not warm, and insufficient
bedding is provided. A crack in the wall,
when the wind is damp and cold, may
cause distress to all the animals, yet the
cost of repairing such may be but a small
sam.
—Good farm hands are worth all that
may be paid them, as intelligence is of
more value sometimes than the actual labor
performed, for when an incompetent per-
son is intrusted with particular work, and
mistakes are made, the entire crop and a
season’s preparation may be loa. A skiil-
ful farm hand may demand high wages,
but his work will be worth more than that
of an incompetent person.
—Tomake an asparagus bed in the
spring get two-year-old roots and place
them three feet apart in the rows, the
rows to be five feet apart. They will soon
fill up all the spaces in the rows. The first
work should be done now, if the ground
can be worked. Make trenches three feet
deep. A trench 100 feet long will be suf-
ficient to supply an ordinary family. Fill
the trench with fresh horse manure, two
feet deep, and scatter 50 pounds of bone
meal and 50 pounds of sulphate of potash
on the manure. Put on a few inches of
dirt and trample the mass. Then add
more dirt until within 18 inches of the top.
Leave it until ready for setting out the
roots, then cover them which will leave
them in the ground 18 inches below the
surface, filling up the surface. Soapsuds
may be poured in the rows from time to
time during the winter. A row thus pre-
pared will give cuttings for twenty years.
. —The orchards of this country have re-
ceived more consideration during the past
decade than for a century previous. Crops
of apples were formerly allowed to waste
on the ground, the trees were not proteci-
ed from insects, and the quality of the
fruit was a secondary matter, while over-
bearing was considered a fortunate ocour-
rence. It is difficult to convince fruit-
growers, however, that it is to their advan-
tage to thin the fruit off the trees, and in
that respect they suffer a loss which could
easily be avoided. It is maintained that
the amount of fruit on a tree may be reg-
ulated in two ways—by pruning away a
part of the branches to prevent the forma-
tion of too much fruit, or by picking off
the superfluous fruit as soon as possible
after it is formed. With such fruits as
grapes, raspberries, blackberries and the
like pruning is preferred, as it is wore
easily done than by picking off the fruit.
In the case of currants and gooseberries,
which are, as a rule, pruned less severely
than grapes, raspberries and Wiadlnerio
it
thinning might be an advantage.
currants the removing of the tips
of the stems gave 15 per cent. more
berries to the cluster, and the separate ber-
ries were 7 per cent. heavier on the thin
bushes than on the others. There is also
the attractiveness of the frait in market,
which must not be over looked, as the ap-
pearance has much to do with the prices
obtained. :
It seems like a sacrifice to deliberately
remore the fruit from the tree, yet at fhe
Hatch Station the yield of Gravenstein ap-
ples on the trees that bad been thinned by
hand was nine bushels of first guality
fruit, one bushel second quality, and ten
and a half bushels windfall. On other
varities the trees that had been thinned of
fruit gave two bushels of choice fruit, while
the unthinned trees gave none at all. The
market value of the fruit on the trees that
had been thinned was from two to eleven
times as much as that from the others, the
net gain ranging from 85 cents to a $1.85
per tree. The results with plums were
very similar to those with apples regard-
ing the increased production of fruit. A
tree each of Guci and Victoria plums was
divided into approximately equal halves,
one-half being thinned and the other half
being left as a check. The thinned half of
the Guei tree yielded nine quarts of mar-
ketable fruit and the unthinned half five
and a balf quarts. The yield of market-
able fruit from the thinned and unthinned
halves of the Victoria tree was 16 quarts
and nine and a half quarts respectively,
the net gain due to thinning being 20 cents
and 41 cents respectively. Another re-
markable result was that the thinned fruit
was much less affected by disease.
"The advantages of thinning fruits from
the trees are many. Thinning increases
the size of the fruit, gives more color and
also better flavor. It diminishes the pro-
portion: of windfalls, increases the amount
of first quality fruit, and the total yield is
larger, while a higher price per bushel is
It lessens the amount of rot,
especially in the case of peaches and plums,
since the diseases can spread less easily
where the fruits do not touch each other.
Thinning also tends to keep all injurious
insects in check. as care is taken to remove
all infested fruit. Another point is that it
weakens the tree more to produce large
quantities of inferior fruit than to yield
the same quality of first quality fruit in|
bushels, as the extra amount of seeds in
the more numerous apples, peaches, plums,
eto., taxes the trees severeiy. Is is well
known that many trees that are overloaded
one year seldom bear the next, but by pro-
ducing the work required of the trees it is
possible to have a crop every year. Favor-
able years, which are marked by great pro-
duction of fruit, overcrowd the market,
low prices ruling, only choice fruit selling
at a profit, and with tbe increase of quality
due to thinning follows better prices, a
slight increase in the prices being the dif-
ference hetween profit and loss. The prop-
er time to thin is before the fruit become so
large as to overtax the tree, and the pick-
ing of the fruit should be done in a manner
so as not to allow the fruit to touch, giv-
ing a distance of from four to six inches be-
tween each. The advantages of thinning
‘have heen clearly shown to give better
prices and larger yields, but the greatest
obstacle in the way is that of inducing
fruit growers to thin the frais, as many of
them look upon the practice as a sacrifice.
FOR AND ABOUT WOMKN.
When we have learned how munch easier
it is to be systematic in all our work, how
infinitely better to keep clean and orderly,
always with a for everything and
everything in its place, then to bring things
into order after a few days or weeks of dis.
order we are far on the road that leads to
economy of strength. Spend a quarter of
an hour each morning in planning and ar-
ranging the duties of the day. Think of
the different ways a tack may be done and
choose the one which seems most thorough.
Make a daily list beginning with hour of
rising, and closing with the going out of
the evening lights. Then pick up each lit-
tle (or big) duty on time and do your best
with it, but have it finished in time for the
next in order. In this way you will do
your work better, and accomplish more
than ever before. You will find along near
the bottom of the day’s list the hour for
reading, and when you reach this item (if
you have profited by this homely bit of ad-
vice) you will not have to search for your
book; ‘twill he carefully placed on the
library table, its marker in place and the
lamp shining ready to do its part. Added
to your own satisfaction, think of the in-
creased comfort of the other lives in your
home! How pleasant for mother to besure
of order and serenity when she drops in for
the evening hour, how nics for husband to
exult over his bachelor friends in the way
of ‘being able to find his collar button in
the dark’ if need be. And for the little
ones! It is impossible to overestimate the
value of an orderly well-kept home for
these little folks who are growing up.
Then, live simply. Get out of the practice
of worrying, read wholesome books, eat
wholesome food and get into the sunshine
often. And by these little things many of
the ills and unpleasant situations of life
may be avoided.
You hear much talk abont one paper
having ‘‘a good design’’ and another hav-
ing ‘‘a poor design.’’ Not one person in a
thousand really knows what a good design
is. Yet if you puta poor design upon your
walls you will injure the effect of your
room without being able to account for it.
Follow the better part of valor, as you so
often do in buying dress goods; get a plain
color, as ‘always satisfactory,’’ ‘‘not likely
to go out of fashion,” and so on. Be wary
of the matter of borders and friezes. In
these a good design is seldom to be bad.
Also, they are generally too narrow, oblig-
ing you to put your picture at their june-
tion with the wall paper, which may be
entirely the wrong place for it. The right
place for a picture molding is even with the
tops of the different heights of doors and
windows, then it should be even with the
greatest number.
A simple and satisfactory way of treat-
ing a room is to carry the calcimine of the
ceiling down to the picture molding, pos-
sibly 18 inches or more, and let the paper
begin there. Obviously the ceiling should
be one of the lightest shades of .the paper,
or else cream color. Some pretty rooms
have been made by selecting a good paper
frieze and calcimining or painting the rest
of the wall to match one of its darker col-
ors. If the frieze is not wide enough, its
lower edge may be set at the proper height
and the ceiling color carried down to its
upper edge. The upper edge of leaves or
some other irregularity may even be cut
out before pasting it upon the wall.
Pillows are made in three sizes—20 by
27, 27 by 28 and 20 by 30 inches. Pillow-
slips should be an eighth of a yard longer
than the pillow after they are hemmed and
wide enough to slip easily over it. They
may be either plainly hemmed or hem-
stitched. Pillowshams should be larger
than the pillows that they are to be used
for. The average sized sham is 30 by 30
inches. If the round bolster is preferred to
the shams, it may be stuffed with feathers
or may consist simply of a pasteboard frame
over which ticking in drawn. It may then
be covered with any desired material. Pil-
lowshams and bedspreads are often made of
linen and simply or elaborately embroider-
ed.
The woman who indulges in the tooth-
pick habit on the street belongs to the
same society stratum as the one who al-
ways carries her hankerchief ' rolled in a
ball in her hand and expectorates in pub-
lic.
White shirt waists are selling by mil-
lions. Colored waists are scarcely in the
running. White mercerized stuffs are first
choice among materials, with white em-
broidered linen as their chief rival.
In the plain tailored waists not much
variety is possible. A loose blouse effect
is the thing desired. In detail the new
waists have flattened in front, lengthened
on the shoulder, enlarged in the sleeve and
broadened at the waist line. Deep, flat
side pleats are prominent, running from
throat or shoulder to the belt, giving a
flat, broad line at the waist with fullness
at each side of it. In thin goods more
frills of course are permissible.
Nearly all the buyers for dressmakers,
tailors and milliners are back from Paris,
and a word of things they bave brought
with them. There was shown to me this
morning a delightful dress of red foulard
mooned with white. Ite had a blouse
bodice and over it a short loose bolero of
red cloth with gold buttons and a triple
shonlder collar trimmed with straps.
Cloth sleeves were finished with foulard
puffs. There was a graceful skirt tucked
around the hips. The white straw hat was
bordered with red and decked with wings.
There are a number of new ideas this
spring that are decidedly pretty and pleas-
ing. This is evidenced no better any-
where than in the regular cloth walking
suit with its collarless neck and its stole-
effect front, not to mention a hovdred
minor touches, all new and attractive.
A very fetching effect in the way of a
tailor-made is a heavy worsted effect in
blue shot with white. The jacket endsat
the waist line and blouses slightly in
front. Two pleats on either side give it a
Gibson suggestion. The neck is collarless
and edged with a broad black braid that
extends down the front in stole effect and
terminated in fourrageres. A false end
over the bust is similarly bedecked. A
double self-cape covers the shoulders, and
is trimmed in front with two pearl buttons
on either side.
Linen dresses daily multiply. A ma-
jority of the prettiest are in white, espe-
cially among the fine linens. Yesterday I
saw a remarkably good model of coarse
linen in the natural flax color. Its skirt
was made with a hip yoke and front panel
out in one, the side breadths pleated.
Around the bottom it was trimmed with a
band of white linen incrusved with white
lace and a Bulgarian embroidery composed
of pink and green linen cut out to represent
flower sprays.
Plain Talks With Mothers.
Teething. This is a time usually much
dreaded by mothers, and the period of
dentition is really the time of the greatest
mortality amongst children. We do not
however, wish to alarm mothers whose
babies are just reaching this stage, for many
a child passes through it comfortably wit
only the ‘‘dribbling’’ and a slight increas-
ed restlessness as indications of the change.
At the period of teething important
changes are taking place in the body, the
stomach and digestive organs especially,
and these exercise their share in producing
constitutional disturbances.
Cutting Teeth. As a rule a baby begins
to cut its teeth at seven months old, but
children vary in this as in all others fune-
tions of the body,so that the safer way is to
watch carefully for the first symptoms.
At the very commencement there is an
increased amount of saliva, which keeps
the mouth moist and cool; and here we
give a useful hint.
About Bibs. Cnt out in good stout flan-
nel a bib of the ordinary shape, but half
an inch smaller, so that it may be covered
by the more ornamental outer one. Then
cut out a piece of oil silk the same size as
the flannel; bind both together with nar-
row white ribbon, and tie round the baby’s
neck with the flannel next the child. By
this means all risk of cold is avoided.
Painful Teething. Later on, the mouth
becomes hot and dry, and other derange-
ments are likely to follow. The child be-
comes fretful and feverish,and constipation
or diarrhoea ensue; the latter if not severe
is beneficial, but if protracted may become
a source of danger. Either one or both
cheeks hecome red, and an eruption some-
times appears. Thirst and loss of appetite
are also evidences of painful dentition, and
the child sleeps badly, and frequently
moans in its sleep.
The child should be especially guarded
against exposure to damp or cold, indiges-
tion, or any disturbance of the system
which by lowering the general health, low-
ers the child’s resisting power, and may
convert a course of easy teething into one
of pain and danger.
As a rale, the irritation increases with
the number of teeth being cut simultane-
ously, but a single tooth in one case may
cause more disturbance than a half dozen
in another.
Number of Teeth. The first, or tem-
porary set of teeth, is usually cut in pairs.
(1) The lower front incisors.
(2) The upper front incisors.
(8) The two upper lateral incisors.
(4) The two lower laterals, though oc-
casionally a double tooth is cut before
them.
(2) The first grinders in the lower jaw.
6) The first grinders in the upper jaw.
(7) The lower pointed or canine teeth.
(8) The upper pointed eye teeth.
(9) The second lower grinders.
(10) The second upper grinders.
These last seldom appear before a child
is two years old. From the time the firs$
tooth is cut two years generally elapse be-
fore the first set is complete. There are
twenty teeth in the first set; at two years
old a child usually has sixteen.
Teething Rings. It is a bad plan to give
a child coral or ivory to bite when teeth-
ing, as it hardens the gums, and causes
the teeth to come through with greater
difficulty. India-rubber rings are the best,
as they are yeilding and increase the flow
of saliva, which relieves the inflamed
gums.
Milk Better Than Meat.
Milk may be regarded as one of the most
important foods of the majority of house-
holds. It is commonly spoken of as a per-
feot food, because it furnishes the materials
which build up the body tissues and keep
them in repairs, as well as those which
supply the energy in the forms of heat and
power required for the daily tasks. A
quart of milk contains about the same
amount of nutriment as three-quarters of
a pound of beef—about four ounces. Six
ounces of bread will likewise supply not
far from four ounces of nutritive substance.
To put it another way, about one-eighth of
the whole weight of the milk, one-third of
the beef and two-thirds of the bread con-
sist of actually nutritive ingredients. But
the nutritive values were said to be not
the same, and it was asserted that either
the milk or the bread, eaten alone, would
make a better halanced food for man than
the meat, because each contains the differ-
ent kinds of nutritive ingredients in pro-
portions more nearly adapted to supply the
wants of the body than is the case with the
nutrients of meat. !
It was recommended that milk be used
more liberally as a food and one of its most
acceptable forms is in soups. These are
not only valuable as luncheon dishes, where
there are school children, but also at din-
ner, where the rest of the meal may be de-
ficient in nutrients. Such soups are all
made in the same way. Usually the vege-
table is boiled and pressed through asieve.
When white stock is used a pint of the
vegetable pulp is diluted in a quart of
stock, or, for a small family, the propor-
tion is one cup to one pint. Thicken with
roux made of one-half tablespoonful of
butter to one of flour (for the smaller quan-
tity) and when the soup has thickened
strain that it may be perfectly smooth.
Return to the fire, add a little cream or
the yolk of an egg, or neither need be used.

Honor for Head of American Methodist Work in
Rome.
The Rev. William Burt, head of the
American Methodist work among the Ital-
ians, was received in private audience by
King Victor Emanuel Saturday, and after-
ward received the decoration of the Order
of St. Maurice and St. Lazarus as a token
of his Majesty’s appreciation of Mr. Burt’s
labors, extending over seventeen years.
He founded thirty-three churches, a girls’
industrial school, a girls’ finishing school,
a boys’ Methodist college and a theological
school, all in Rome, and an industrial
school for boys in Venice. The Methodist
building in Rome, one of the largest in
Europe, which was built for the twenty-
fifth anniversary of the fall of the temporal
power, contains two churches, a publish-
ing house and a home for ex-priests.
——Secretary Moody has reached a de-
cision as to the states after which the five
battleships provided for in the new naval
law shall be named. The three 16,000
battleships are to be named Vermont, Kan-
sas and Minnesota, and the two 13,000
vessels Mississippi and Idaho. The secre-
tary in his next annual report expeots to
discuss the subject of the names to be giv-
en new battleships. He is anxious that
the names of such historic vessels as the
Cumberland, the Merrimac and the Con-
‘stitution shall be perpetuated in the new
navy, and he will recommend that Con-
gress provide for this in the next naval
law. Under the present law it is stipulat-
ed that all battleships shall be named after
the States of the union.

‘“That the business affairs of the Chris-

financial footing is conceded. Is there any
fault to find with that? Is it not rather a
welcome mark of stability and good faith

churches and at its own cost maintain free
reading rooms and free lectures to which
the public have access without charge? Is
it not a viriue that it needs no fairs, ba-

are dedicated until paid for? If the Chris-

those who have not had the benefits of its

fault with the status of its business affairs,
