FARM NOTES.
—Poor fences make good jumpers.
—Clean cows result from proper stabling.
—The cow holds ber own in all kinds of
times.
~Feed, from the hand of the master,

—The new stable should have several
windows,
—A new milker will at first get less milk
from a cow than one to whom the animal
is accustomed.
—Calls and ewes that do not own or
rear their lambs properly, may be turned
off in the same way.
—A French borticulturist bas discover.

—There is no such thing as colored or
parti-colored breeds being more hardy than
white ones. All d s upon the condi-
tion of the breeding stock, and the oare
they receive. oe ———
—It you keep three or more cows it will
pay you to bave a cream separator. Before
buying, send for the catalogue of all the
makes yon find advertised. It will pay
you to investigate this question. ng
f£—OId sheep should now 'be separated
from the rest of the flock and given extra
care. They can be improved in fiesh and
sent to market, where some return can be
realized from them.— Farm Journal.
‘ Last spring I found that something
was eating the rhubarb leaves about as fast
as they grew, writes a ent of
Farm and Home. Close investigation show-
ed it was cat worms and I found hall a
dozen under each plant. A good squeeze
settled each one. pi
—Twenty-seven woll whelps, each worth
$20, were captured in the Matchwood
township of On county, a few days
age by two W n hunters, attracted to
e peninsula by the generous bounty of-
t for the extermination of these aui-
wals. It was the biggest roundup of the
kind ever made in northern Michigan.
—All soils are formed from disintegrated
rocks and organic matter. O! the latter,
soils contain from 1 to more than 70 per
cent. ; it is, however, only in bogs or beds
of peas that the amount last named is ever
present. The hest wheat lands contain
only from 4 to 6 per cent. of organic mat-
ter ; oats and rye will grow in eoils con-
taining only one or two. The intelligent
turmer should endeavor to ascertain what is
wanting in the soil and supply it, remem-
bering that be can make no possible mis-
take with barnyard manure.
—A calf kept winter and summer in
thrifty growth, at two years will make as
much more beef than one neglectfully kept
at twice that age. The profit will all
found on the 2-year-old and the loss on the
$3eat-0 ; yes owhers of the latter have
rsued such system —il system it can
el the idea that they were sav-
ing money. Keep the thrifty animal two
years longer in the same way, and some-
thing very handsome in the way of beef
will be the result, while the starveling can
ever pay the expense of rearing and feed-
Dg.
—~Poultry should now be filling the egg
baskes, ny will, if they have justice done
to them. It is not enough that they are
well fed ; other conditions are aired.
Their houses should be well ol , their
nest boxes thoroughly washed and a little
quicklime sprinkled in them. The floors
of their houses should also be well sprink-
led with quioklime, and the roosting poles
whitewashed. All these are necessary to
purify the atm e and destroy the ver-
min that infest places. The cleaning
process should also be applied to the horse,
cow and sheep stables.

every one will be a Taney garjener, but
every one should give ent attention
to the subject so as to produce all staple
vegetables earlier than can be produced in

In the garden, or in a separate apartment,

—Take care of your chickens. They
should not be let out of their too ear-
ly in the morning, or when the dew is on

{ to range over the wet grass, which is
acommon cause of disease and death.
They should alto be guarded against sud-
den unfavorable changes of weather, more
particularly if attended with rain. Nearly

from cold moisture. The period at which

kept upon them for a few days, for chick-

liable to disease than when they were ap-
parently tender little weaklings.

ft.~Mareus Aurelia,
Should you have a bis of old lace, if it is
but your grandmother’s ‘ ‘tucker,’ yellow
with age, ges it out and pus it to use; for
this is to be not merely a season of lace, but
of real lace. -
This bas 3 Guessing sound, has it
not? But do not be cast down. your
purse will not permit of the real thing,
you can find innumerable imitations, fine
and filmy and really artistic in design, to
delightfully fill its place. :
One thing is certain, however: lace you
must bave—two or three different kinds,
often on the same gown. Itis employed
in every conceivable way, sometimes with
daring, even startling, effcots.
The first choice for many people, barring
the more expensive laces, such as
duchess and rose point, is ever the Irish
point, which is larly good on the
soft fabrics so mueh in vogue for spring
wos. One of its chief recommendations
ides beauty of design is that it
will wash so well that it does not even re-
quire to he sent to a professional cleaner.
The baby Irish, with ite fine picot mesh
and beavy Pompadour roses and other
flowers, is probably even more popular.
It is found mn i ons and edgings of all
widths, and is most beautiful in the all-
over for waists.
The real Irish lace, as every one knows,
is crocheted by the peasants in the south
of Ireland. The new French variety, which
is egesially good for silks and light wool-
en gowns, is extremely showy and stylish.
From Vienna also comes a ‘‘real Irish®’
orcohet, but of bolder patterns. The
Viennese have been taught the ars of mak-
ing this lace in order to keep vp the sup-
| ply
The new cluny, especially in lingerie
guwny, where its _ Selichey “i fineness
show wit charm n
favor than ever. a the Sle
waists bave a touch of it somewhere—
often in medallions set in with fine band-
work or outlined, perhaps, witha ruffle
of German valenciennes. Again it is used
with balf-inch venier insertions, or the
venise medallions are used on a back-
ground, or the cluny are intro-
dnoed in the venise all-overs.
One fascinating insertion, in the broad
bands so desirable this spring to run
around a waist, had flowers re)
in 1 yarn on filmy not, the edges
finished with narrow bands of canvas
mingled with a venise lace pattern. An-
other has large star shaped flowers heavily
embroidered on a rather coarse hexagonal
meshed net.
The fine, sheer princess laces are lovelier
than ever. In this also several sized and
Stiaped meshes are seen in one insertion—
or it is combined with cluny. It is a
great favorite as a trimming, but more
particularly for entire dressy waists or
wns—of which every woman must num-
one at least in her summer wardrobe.
One of the best machine-made laces is
venise. The new copy the real
(which is extremely costly) more closely
and are more artistic than ever before.
This lance is employed in every possible
way, but by reason of having a certain
substantial air—it is much less delicate
and easily torn than the princess—is prob-
ably up more frequently into waists
than any other kind. One piece of venise
was such an exact copy of the famous old
rose that it pozzled any but an
expert to tell it was not real.
A new touch is given to these laces b
introducing color into the designs. Th
is done withan acid, and it is eaid the
the delicate tints—blue, pink, lavender
and green—may be safely washed.
The craze for whole lace gowns—und it
is a craze—has biought in many embroid-
ered nets in white, ecru and black. These
are leo closely covered than formerly—
often, indeed, in ev detached designs—
while the coin nets, in spots rang-
ing from the size of a pinhead to a silver
quarter, are in high favor.
Equally good are the plain cotton bras.
sels, i i called wash blonde. These
are ly made up with insertions, ruffles
or medallions—or all three—of German
very | valenciennes or venise.
As for valenciennes, nothing can depose
it from its high place in popular esteem.
Almost every gown hasa touch of it—
especially often the German—if it is but a
ruching. By the , DArrow of

interest. It has its picturesque fea-
tures. On Monday, Oct. 10, 1871, when
all Chicago trudged downtown to see
what was left of the city, great crowds
besieged the banks, Some men were
crying, others talked incoherently, and
everybody seemed half dazed. An offi-
cer of one of Chicago's greatest banks,
who fought his way through the smol-
dering embers to the white marble hall
which surrounded his vault, gave the
following description of what occurred:
“Although the iron door of the vault
had been somewhat expanded by heat,
I found that the combination worked

vault door. The inclosure smelled
smoky, but I soon found that the
was all right, and so were our
That made me feel good, and I

cent dividend besides, even If it lost
every dollar due from its Chicago cli-
ents, That was all I wanted to know.
“On leaving the vault I saw four men
waiting for me in what had been the
cashier's office. They were among our
largest depositors, and I knew well
enough what they wanted. They were
of very different types—one a shrewd
money lender who had $30,000 to his
credit on our books, another was a
school treasurer in an outlying district
who would have been ruined had we
not been able to pay him $25,000, a
third was an out of town banker with
$150,000 to the credit of his institution
in our bank, and the fourth was a man
who has since become one of Chicago's
greatest capitalists and who had always
professed his sincere friendship for me,
It was a trying ordeal and one calculat-
ed to make each of my visitors show
the real stuff that was in him. As
events proved, this did not take long.
“The little money lender grabbed me
first. With a ‘strange little wink he
forced me one side and said in a half
whisper, ‘Do you know how much I
have in your bank?
“I said, ‘Yes, about £30,000.
“Well, 1 will give you $6,000 if you
will give me the cash right away.’
“‘ won't do that’ sald I. ‘Your
money is all right, but you will have to
wait a week for it until we get In
shape again.’
“ “What, he fairly gasped, ‘do you de-
cline $6,000? That is a good deal of
money in a city that has gone to de-
struction.’
“I answered no, that I would not,
and told him in plain English what I
thought of him. I said: ‘I am not knave
enough to take your bribe and give you
an unfair advantage over the other de-
positors, and I am not fool enough to
do it, because I know as soon as you
discover the bank paid its claims with-
in a week you would sue me for the
$6,000. Get out of here right away.’”
“That was the last of him. He took
his money when the week was out and
kept clear of the bank after that. Then
the school treasurer came to me with a
straightforward story of how his bonds-
men were anxious to know how he
stood. When I told him that his money
was safe and that he would not lose a
cent he burst into tears, saying the
news was too good to be true. The out
