FARM NOTES.
—Onions should * be kept in a cool, dry
piace, but never placed in the ice box.
ey will keep well if placed in paper bags
and hang up.
—When the land is covered with some
kind of crop to avoid nakedness of the
soil, there is less loss of water, hecause
much of it goes down instead of flowing
away.
—The prize for the best 100-acre farm or
less in England was won by a farmer who
farms 81 acres of grass land, 41 acres being
in pasture. He kept 52 cows, and spent
$3000 extra for food for his stock each year.
—Experiments show that a cow when in
full flow of milk drinks from 1500 to 2000
pounds of water per month, the average
quantity, determined by testing a herd,
being 1660 pounds per cow. This fact shows
the importance of an unlimited supply of
pure water at all seasons of the year. In
every 100 quarts of milk the farmer sells
about 88 quarts of water, and when the
cow cannot procure water at all times she
will fall off in yield.
—The best soil for plums is said to be
one that is stony and heavy, The plum is
a hardy tree and requires the same method
of pruning as peaches. Never cut off the
small branches until they die, as it is on
the small branches that most of the frait
grows. The following varieties are recom-
mended : Bevay’s Green Gage, Bradshaw,
Coe’s Golden Drop, Green Gage, Imperial
Gage, Jefferson, Lawrence’s Favorite,
Pond’s Seedling, Prince’s Yellow Gage,
Smith’s Orleans and Washington Yellow
Egg.
--When to spray apple trees depends
upon the purposes desired. Use Bordeaux
mixture when the bunds are swelling, and
if canker worms are abundant spray also
when the blossoms are about to open. Af-
ter the blossoms fall spray again with Bor-
-deaux mixture, and also Paris green, re-
peating both applications a week or ten
days later. In about ten days or two
weeks another application may be made of
Bordeaux mixture. These remedies or
preventives are for scab, bud moth, codling
moth, tent caterpillar, curculio and canker
worm.
—Growers of peaches are using cow peas
in the orchard. The vines shade the land
and may be turned under when the pods
are nearly ripe, or may remain as a mulch
in winter. It is more profitable to use the
vines for food cattle, but at the same time,
if a mulch is required, it is well to grow
the mulch, especially when a leguminous
plant answers so well. One advantage in
growing the cow pea is that it is almost a
sure crop, and lime or wood ashes may be
used asa fertilizer with it. The peach
orchard will in no manner be injured by
growing the cow pea as long as the land is
given the benefit of the crop from the
manure or by plowing under.
—There is much to learn in regard to
feeding. The common practice is to give
the hay and grain separately. Experi-
ments made to test the values of food un-
der different systems of feeding demonstrate
that the best results are obtained where the
grain is ground, the hay cut into short
iengths, the bulky food then moistened
and the grain and hay mixed, which is done
by sprinkling the ground grain over the
bay. ‘This mode demands more labor, but
at the present time grinding mills and
power feed cutters are cheap enough to be
within reach of all. The mixed food is
better digested, is more highly relished and
a saving is effected in the quantity, as the
careful preparation lessens the waste.
—One of the implements or machines
which farmers who visit the fairs have
found in operation is the corn shredder. It
is revolutionizing the use of corn fodder, as
it saves labor and prepares the corn stalks
for the use of stock. It removes the ears
from the husks and tears the entire stalk
into shreads at one operation, as rapidly as
the stalks can be fed into the machine.
There are several kinds, but every farmer
should have one, as it will enable him to
use the leaves, husks and stalks as so much
hay, which can be baled, il necessary.
When fodder is thus prepared the cattle
will not reject so much as usual, and the
shredded fodder uneaten is suitable for bed-
ding or as an absorbent in the manure
heap. The saving in feed by the shred-
ding of the entire stalk will be an addi.
tion to the profits of the farm, and also
enable the farmer to keep more stock.
—In this country we pay more attention
to a product of the sheep—wool—than to
the sheep. With so much agitation over
the woo! industry it would seem as if the
sheep was intended only for the one pur-
pose of prodncing wool, when, in fact, wool
is the smallest product, in value, derived
from sheep. It has been repeatedly shown
that by the use of improved breeds of sheep
lambs can be made to pay from $5 to $10
each, while the increased value of the land
upon which sheep bave been kept is of
itself a sum quite large enough to render
sheep raising profitable. Experiments
demonstrate that sheep may be kept for
mutton alone with profit, but as wool is a
necessary adjunct to the sheep a source of
profit is in that direotion also. In experi-
‘ments made accounts were kept of all the
items of cost, including the shepherd’s
care, original cost of animals, the use of
the mother ewes and .the value of their
fleeces, as well as of food, shelter and in-
terest on capital, until the sheep were over
one year old. Grades and half-bloods were
used for experiment. A half-blood South-
down cost $6 and sheared six pounds of
wool, valued at $2.40. Its carcass weigh-
ed 147 pounds, live weight, which sold at
6} cents per pound, or $9.55, which shows
a profit of $3.55 from the sheep, not in-
cluding the cost, and without estimating
the wool at all, the total profit being $5.95,
including the wool. A balf-blood Shrop-
shire cost $7 and sheared nine pounds of
wool, which sold for $3.40, the carcass
weighing 160 gonuds iis net profit for mut-
ton and wool being $6.32. A half-blood
Oxford heighed 187 pounds and sheared
eight pounds of wool, giving a total profit
of $6.02. A half-blood Cotswold weighed
199 pounds, but as it is not a strictly mut-
ton breed only five cents a pound was ob-
tained for it, its wool weighing nine pounds
and the net profit being only $3.75. The
common native cost only $2, sheared five
pounds of wool, weighed 150 pounds and
gave a net profit of $3.17. The sheep paid
well, even the native showing a fair rec-
ord ; but, had woo! been the object, a loss
would have resulted, the cost of the native,
only $2, being the only advantage in its
favor. The next smallest cost and largest
profit was with the Southdown. The ex--
perimen te show that mutton pays far bes
ter than wool, but they also demonstrate
that a balf-blood sheep will give nearly
twice as much profit as a native, and that
to raise mutton for market “BioBiabiy the
best breeds must be employed.
FOR AND ABOUT WOMKN.
The following is the recipe for hot choco-
| late sauce : Put into a saucepan one cu
of water, one-half cup of sugar, one-half
inch bit of stick cinnamon: and ove ounce
or square of chocolate melted over hot wa-
ter and mixed with one-halt cup of milk.
When boiling thicken with one table-
spoonful of arrow root wet in one-fourth
cup of water. Stir as it thickens and cook
five minutes. Remove the zinnamon, add
one teaspooninl of vanilla, a little salt and
serve it hot. Pour a small portion over
each slice of ice cream.
To distinguish mushrooms from poison-
ous fungi.—Sprinkle a little salt on the
spongy part, or gills, to be tried. If they
turn yellow they are poisonous ; if black,
they are wholesome.
Your hair is losing color because the
scalp is very much in need of good treat-
ment. You are probably anaemic also.
Whenever the blood is not in good condi-
tion or the system is depleted the hair
shows it as quickly as the eyes. The color
tubes in the scalp run dry, and the glands
do not work. First, you want a good tonic.
Nothing is better than the simple one of
raw eggs and milk. Next you want scalp
treatment twice a week. You can get a
ticket of twelve treatments for six dollars
among the best shops, and this will abso-
lutely renew your bair if it works as with
other people. A good preparation of ean
de quinine put cn three times a week is
very good, but there is something about a
professional touch that does the scalp more
good in two weeks than you can do in two
months. The scalp needs massage, and
the professionals know just how to give if.
Nothing else but treatment will do your
hair any good.
Hot milk, sipped slowly, is efficacious
for relieving the throat irritation that fre-
quently follows a severe cold or is an ac-
companiment of a bronchial congh.
Bead chains are so popular these days
that a bright suggestion for keeping them
will be welcomed by many. String them
on the finest fiddle strings, instead of silk
thread, and they will stand an unusual
amount of wear and tear before breaking.
Save the jars in which the imported Can-
ton ginger is packed to use for small flower-
ing plants. At this time of year the Persian
cyclamen is especially attractive for the
table. It comes in several beautiful rich
colors, as well as white,and if given plenty
of light, and not too much heat, will re-
main in bloom for a long time. A deep
crimson cyclamen in a gray ginger jar is a
cheerful object on a breakfast table, the
more so if blue and white china is used.
Flanvel which has become yellowed with
use mav be restored to whiteness by soak-
ing for some time in soapy water, to which
strong ammonia has been added. The same
object may be attained in a shorter time
hy placing the garments for a quarter of an
hour in a weak solution of bisulphite of
soda, to which a little hydrochloric acid
has been added.
Mis. King, of Corpus Christi, Tex.,owns
more land than any other woman in this
country, perhaps in the world. Her hold-
ings are not less than 1,300,000 acres, lo-
cated in the counties of Nueces, Hidalgo,
Starr and Cameron. Her late husband,
Captain King, was one of the old time cat-
tle barons. Mrs. King has about 65,000
cuttle grazing on her broad acres. Under
the terms of her husband’s will the estate
must not be divided until his oldest grand-
child comes of age. Mrs. King has one son
and three married daughters.
Do not make the mistake of clear-starch-
ing your shirt waists of madras or cotton
cheviot. It is fashionable to wear them
soft finished and absolutely guiltless of
starch, unless in the unattached collar. A
soft neckband and soft wristhand are in-
tended on these stylish wash shirt waists.
The absence of starching distinguishes them
from our sheer blouse of lawn or nainsook,
which, of course, requirvs the stiffening.
Be sure you acquaint your laundress with
your wishes in this respect. The madras
blouse must be soft as if it were freshly
stitched.
In banging pictures a study of surround-
ings is of most importance. Colors in har-
mony with the pictures should predominate
in the furnishings and should be in such
subdued tones as will, like good children,
not insist on being seen or heard until ca’1-
ed upon. Above all care should be ta*: a
as to wall coverings. Avoid large-patiern-
ed papersand papers with any pattern at
all, if possible. The plain-colored car-
tridge papers in rather dark half-tones of
terra cotta, sage or gray-blue are the best
possible backgrounds for pictures of any
kind, marbles or bric-a-brac.
Don’t bang inbarmonioue pictures to-
gether. See that the pink-and-white wa-
ter-color ballet girl is kept away from the
vicinity of the saintly Cecilia.
Though each is a gem in its individual
way they clash when brought together,and
both are losers thereby. In the same way
avoid the mixing up of paintings,drawings,
etchings and miscellaneous bric-a-brac.
The quiet, refined lines of an etching have
no chance whatever in the company of a
brilliant, many-colored painting, and a
pencil or ink drawing, no matter how pure
and clear in its lines would pass wholly
unooticed in the brilliant but overwhelm.
ing society of a Bonares plaque of beaten
rass.
Instead of spring tonics for that tired
feeling invest in spring vegetables and
fruits. It is just as cheap and much better.
for the system.
Green salads, in place of heavy salads,
flees vegetables in plaee of the tinned
inds, delicate egg dishes and white meat-
ed fishin place of heavy roasts and steaks—
this is the basis of an ideal bill of fare for
March and April. Such a diet, with well
proportioned exercise and plenty of deep
breathing, will insure joy for the season of
‘‘buds and blossoms, of birds and flowers
and sweet spring light.’ .
Olive oil, olives, watercress,asparagus as
soon as it becomes at all plentiful, raw
onions and all the seasonable fruits are na-
ture's remedies for the ills that follow the
surfeiting and high living of the strenuous
winter season, when society and work leave
the population at a low physicial ebb.
“Leave off meat for a while’’ is the terse
direction of many a physician these days,
who ends his admonition with : ‘‘Eas two
meals a day and get all the sun and air
possible.’
The gores there seem no end. The wide
gored skirt is now announced as smartest
for walking length suits.
The long silk coat is no louger consider-
ed smart.
A touch of light blue is used by many
women on their white gowns to make them
more ing.
The 1830 cape is the salient feature of
many of the newest bodices
The back fastening is the favorite for
smart summer waists.
Gray with yellow accessories and tan
with iavender are two of the most swagger
color combinations for spring.
Household Hints.
Keep old kid gloves for ironing day. Sew
a pad of kid from the left glove in the palm
of the right one. The protection from the
heat and weight of the iron will do much
to keep the ironer’s hands from becoming
calloused.
Keep a solution for cleaning the kitchen
sink in a handy place. Make it at home
from one cup of washing soda dissolved in
boiling water.
Tansy leaves were old before moth balls
were heard of, still there is nothing better
today for keeping moths out of woolen
goods.
One of the best and handiest things to
clean bone, ivory, or pearl knife handles is
moist fine salt. Polish afterward with a
dry, soft cloth.
Try how much easier if is to poach an
egg when you put a teaspoon of vinegar in
the boiling water. It helps to keep the
shape of the egg : it also makes the white
firmer and whiter.
Sometimes a knife with which onions
have been cut will keep the odor in spite of
scouring. Jab it in the damp earth a few
times and it will be cleansed perfectly.
Do not drop greasy, dirty dish towels in-
to hot soapsuds; it will only set the grease.
Wash them well first in lukewarm water.
A few tablespoons of kerosene in a pail
of warm water make the washing of win-
dows and mirrors a lighter task than if soap
or any alkali is used.
Cake ought to rise to its full height be-
fore it begins to brown. This applies
specially to sponge cake.
When frying smelts sprinkle with lemon
juice before rolling in eggs and crumbs. I
keeps the flesh white and gives it a good
flavor.
Measure the amount of a gelatine or
cream mixture hefore putting it in a mold,
knowing first how much the mold holds.
Fill to the very brim, for it is almost im-
possible to turn a jelly from a mould when
not perfectly full.
When black calicoes have to be starched
use weak coffee instead of water.
If windows have to be cleaned in zero
weather, dampen the cloth with alcohol in-
stead of water. It will prevent an ice film
forming on the glass.
‘When potatoes have been slightly touch-
ed by frost soak them an hour or two be-
fore cooking in cold water.
A chemist calls gelatine, milk and onions
scavengers of the air. If is a wise plan
never to leave them uncovered for the at-
traction of germs.
When you wish to keep boiled or baked
potatoes warm for some time lay a towel
into a colander, wrap it snugly about the
potatoes, covering them closely, and set in-
side a saucepan with a little water at the
bottom kept just at the boil.
A good thing for cleaning brass or copper
is. sweet oil and putty powder. Afterward
wash in hot water and soap, then polish.
Do not starch cartaine while they are wet
they will soil much faster than if allowed
to dry beforecnand.
When making bags to put away silver-
ware always use the unbleached material.
Sulphur is used for bleaching, and its in-
fluence will quickly tarnish silver.
Stewed stoned prunes with a dash of
lemon in them and drained of a little of
their juice make one of the most delicious
of shortcakes. Whipped cream adds much
to their goodness.
Every sauce containing butter and flour
is made after the same formula. Melt the
butter, add the flour, and cook to a paste,
then add whatever liquor is required—milk
stock, strained tomato, or cream—and cook
beating constantly. The result will be a
smooth, creamy sauce.
Macaroni or spaghetti will be much ten-
derer if put in cold water and slowly
brought to a hoil than if dropped raw into
boiling water.
In baking puff paste have a very hot
oven, and have the heat come from below
until the paste is risen as high as it will go.
Then allow it to brown,setting it oun a high-
er grate if necessary.
Raisins ought never to be washed for a
pudding, or it will be heavy. Rub them
clean between dry towels.
She Had Her Wish.
A little girl who bad noticed on several
houses about the city the cards by which
the board of health announces the presence
of contagions disease asked her mother
what they meant. Her mother explained
and the child said, regretfully: “We
never have anything like that on our
house.’’ : :
‘You would not want it, would you ?”’
said the mother.
“Yes, I would !"’ replied the little, girl,
decidedly.
Some weeks afterward the little girl was
taken sick with chicken-pox, but was not
confined to her bed. On Sunday morning
the mother noticed that people passing on
house and always went away laughing.
Her curiosity was aroused and she went to
the front parlor to investigate. In each of
the front windows was a large placard
made, evidently by the little daughter from
the side of a pasteboard box. On the card
she had printed : ‘‘I have got chicken-pox
bad.”’—Youth’s Companion.
Baby Weighs One Pound.
Smallest Child In West Virginia is Born to a Bluefield
Miner's Wife.
Mrs. Horst, wife of W. S. Hurst, a min-
er employed at Bluefield, W. Va., in the
Booth Barren colliery, recently gave birth
to the smallest baby in West Virginia. It
weighed only 11 peunds and was perfectly
formed and pronounced by physicians to be
perfectly healthy.
This is the eighth child of Mr. and Mrs.
Hurst, the largest one weighing only 3}
pounds at its birth. They are all living
and as large now for their ages as other
children.

liers and Supply Vessels. te go te Europe.

tleship squadron into waters next
May contemplate a more impressive object
lesson ou the growing strength of the
United States navy than has been suppos-
ed.
Behind the shield of a ‘practice cruise’
with the most friendly intentions, it
is proposed to forcibly demonstrate the
ability of the government to carry a war
to the doors of any conntry in Europe.
To prove this in emphatic style the port
of Lisbon, Portugal, is to be ‘‘blockaded’’
at the end of the long trip across the
ocean.
Portugal was selected for the unique
test because the impossibility of the Unit-
ed States ever becoming involved in war
with that country is well r ized.
Representations will be made that will
prevent any Portuguese suspicions of an
ulterior motive. Rear Admiral Barker,
who will command the fleet, will entertain
the nobility and vaval officers of Portugal
in lavish style on his flagship and visitors
will be welcomed on all of the ships.
The fleet will be grouped off Lisbon long
enough to prove that United States war
ships can cross the ocean and take sufficient
coal along to assume offensive operations on
an extensive scale. Europe has considered
this impossible.
The fleet will consist of the Kearsarge,
Admiral Barker’s flagship; the Illinois,
Indiana, Maine, Iowa, Massachusetts, and
probably the second-class battleship Texas,
the cruisers San Francisco and Albany and
colliers and supply ships.
In the lee of the Azores the fighting
ships will be coaled and provisioned so that
they will reach Portugal in readiness for
action.
The fleet will proceed as though war was
actually on. The cruisers will scout in
advance and the supply ships will be pro-
tected by the battleships.
While the operations are extended as a
lesson to all of Europe, the navy depart-
ment is especially anxious to let the Kaiser
see just what its ships can do. When
Prince Henry was in Washington last year
he asked Chief Constructor Bowles as to
the relative effectiveness of German and
American war ships.
‘We build our ships to carry coal as
well as to fight, replied Bowles. ‘‘They
can cross the ocean and some of them can
return without recoaling. Your ships can-
not do that.”
The Kaiser bas regarded this as some-
thing of a boast. Heis to be shown that
it is not.
Naval attaches of European countries are
displaying great interest in the maneuvers,
and many of them have asked to be allow-
ed to accompany thefleet. Their requests
probably will be granted, as the navy de-
partment wants to make the case complete.
The department is constantly working to
increase the coal supply of the warships,
and extend their steaming radius. The
Texas can steam only 2,900 miles. The
Kearsarge can steam more than 6,000 miles
without recoaling, which is half as far
again as the Iowa, Indiana and Massachu-
setts, while the latest addition, the Maine,
carries 2,000 tons of coal, as compared with
the 1,645 tons of the Kearsarge.
Car Wrecked, Cattle Killed.
In a head-on collision near the Keating
bridge Friday between an extra freight
and a stock train, four cars and the engines
were badly wrecked and six head of cattle
were killed and others were injured. The
trainmen escaped.
