FARM NOTES. — Anything irregular affects the percent- aze of buster fats. —11 the horse has sore shoulders, it isa pretty suré sign that bis collar does not fit him. —Thrifty young trees are more apt to live than tne lacgor ones. Their roots are smaller, and more apt to be all taken up in transplanting. —The young, inexperienced hen, is the profitable ben. The poultryman who fails to take this fact into consideration will inevitably fail. —Oats for sheep are excellent, partic: u larly lambe and culls being pr for markes. Fed in connection with corn, the sheep gain in flesh rapidly. —Keep the beef calves upon dry feed for some time in the wptiag until the grass gets large and sweet. It does not pay to turn upon grass to early, as there is not much strength in early grass. —Let your word be surer than your bond, and your wholesale customers will have the larger part of your load sold be- fore it gets to the store and the consumer will have the pot on ready to receive it. —My way when giving liquid medicines isto A ee y rubber hose about 15 inches long, tie it on the peck of a bottle, and put the end of hose down the animal's throat. There is then no danger of getting glass in the mouth. —Every man that bas a large number of hogs should endeavor to give them a good pasture. Too many breeders are contant- ed with a hog pasture that is covered with native grasses only. Cloves and blue grass make a good pasture for swine. —When a man takes me around and with pride, shows me his calves and bis lambs, I feel sure that that man is on the road to success. You do not find sucoess patting the man on the back who is half-hearted or ashamed of hie farm animals. —1 bave found that the weather basa lot to do with the milk. Before a storm, my cows stop the flow of milk. Asa barometer they cannot be surpassed. As soon as the storm com: / the milk comes. Sometimes the storm may pass over; but it aots all the same. —Dark honey sells lower than that which is light. Dark honey will not be found in hives until the summer heat and moisture have liberated certain chemical properties contained in decomposing vegetation. These properties are secreted by flowers or growing vegetables. —The fact that we have been able to make money out of hogs even with the most unscientific methods of breeding and care is proof that under proper conditions the hog will make his owner rich. Scien- tific management means the care of swine to keep away disease, obtain early maturity and keep up the natural fecundity of the animals. ~The trap nest is a good thing in the experiment station and on a large poultry farm where it is desired to keep track of what each hen is doing. On the ordinary farm, however, trap ness is of no value, for the reasor that, after she has laid, some one must Je at band to release the fowl and record her number. If the farmer wishes to keep an individual record of his poultry he will bave to work up some other plan rather than that of the trap nest. —The wide tires seem to be gradually displacing the narrow in some localities, es] ly for farm work. They should take the place of the narrow tire on the highways, as the roads can be kept in con dition with much less expense where heavy loads are drawn upon broad tires than when narrow tires are used. It is not only for the sake of the highway, but there isa sivios in draft upon almost all kinds of roads. —-When the season of berries is over col- lect all the crates and berry boxes and store them away for next season’s use. The farm vot only looks better for having the crates and boxes gathered from the field, but also indicates a careful and thrifty farmer. There are berry fields every win- ter where boxes and crates bave been strewn in confusion everywhere, and about the railroad stations are piled crates and boxes exposed to the wind and rain. With such management berries do not pay. —Vegetable and animal substances, de- posited in the soil, are consumed during the process of vegetation, being mostly ab- sorbed by the roots of plats, combined with water. These substances com what is called the food of plants. This food is mostly taken in by the roots, which are anal to the mouths of animals, but some on of the nourishment of vegetables is claimed to be also derived from the atmosphere, imbibed by the leaves. —Unthrifty frais trees that are in grass land should be plowed 50 as tv break aad turn under the sod before the lime is ap- plied. The tends to exbaust the soil and starve the trees. Bat in plowing care must be taken not to break the larger roots; the smaller roots may be broken with advantage, as it is a sort ef root prun- ing which is beneficial to the tree, but large roots are apt to throw up suckers when they are torn, and the check to the tree is too great. —A controversy has existed relative to the degree al fermentation which manure should undergo before it is applied to the soil. Some agriculturists contend thas long, fresh or ermented manure is to be pre- ferred. Others assert Sha table and vi yard manure pever 8 spread in the field till the fibrons texture of the vi ble matter is entirely broken down, it becomes perfectly cold, and so soft as to be easily cot witha spade. —It is a very desirable thing to be able to haul all the bay into the barn the same day it is out.

DAILY THOUGHT. Judge not at least unkindly of a friend's thought, and then, if you are mistaken, the fault rests not with you,— The Pirate. Laundry starch is the despair of many housewives, who wonder why the home- washed shirts and collars can never have the required stiffness and gloss. mix- ing one ounce of white wax with two ounces of spermaoceti, melting them sogety- er by gentle heat. Then, w you have made your regular starch, add to ita lump of Mixed wax and about the size of a walnut (if you have a large amount of starch,) this melt in the hot starch ; mix in thoroughly. The result will be stiffer starch and a high gloss. Wear a pale blue or lavender belt and bat with your white lingerie frock. The prettiest little dancing frocks are princess lingeries, of short round ge Bright jet buttons finish the bl and white frocks. On the right person the all-black gown is always the most striking one in the crowd. To lose self-control is to lose the key to any sitnation. No man who cannot bold himself in band can expeot to hold others. It has been well said that, in any discus- sion or disagreewent with another, if you are in the wrong you cannot afford to lose your temper, aud if you are in the right there is no occasion to. Or, as a lawyer has wittily put it, ‘‘Possession is nine points of the law : sell-possession is ten.” The girl who dives can keep her hair dry by following the method of two girls who dived f peally without wetting a bair of their heads. ey first brushed their hair high on the head and pinned it in a firm knot. Then they took a piece of oiled silk three inches wide and twisted it tight about the edge of the bair so that an inch ‘of the rubber came against the skin, and the rest was over the hair. This was fast- ened as t as it could be drawn. Over this was also securely pinned a long towel that made another bandage and over this was drawn a close oil-skin cap. With her head done that way a girl can dive for half an hour and keep ber hair quite dry. You sce the protection comes in the two band- ages that, tightly fastened, do not permit the water leaking under, which always happens if a cap is worn with nothing else on the bead. An appetizing and inexpensive cold ont that can be kept on hand for a long time 'in the winter is this made of beef and pigs’ feet. Get from the butcher four pigs’ feet with legs to the first joint, and a shank of beef of about the same weight, sawed and cut. Boil the pigs’ feet in a pot of water without salt until the bones fall out, then lifs the meat from the liquor and set away to cool. Strain the liquor into a jar and the next morning remove all the grease |from the top. At the same time you are ‘cooking the pigs’ feet boil the shank of | beef in another kettle with unsalted water. When perfectly tender take out the meat and set away to cool, as well as the strain- ed ligunor. The next morning cut all the meat in small bits, both pork and beef, add the liguor the pigs’ feet were cooked in ; season with salt, pepper and a little bit of celery salt or other seasoning and pour in moulds. As soon as cold th will be stiff and ready to slice into delicate pieces. The gelatine in the pigs’ feet is superior to aspic. Keep in a cool place. The liquor that the oor is cooked in may | be seasoned for a delicious boullion. DRESSING IN CHARACTER. The invitations read as follows : ‘‘Eliza- beth Cady Stanton, Mother Goose, Grand- ma, Little Red Ridinghood, Martha Wash- ington, and Josiah Allen's Wife request the pleasure of your company, Tuesday evening, April 1, at eight o'clock, at the Sorosis Club Rooms. me dressed to rep- resent a well-known character, dead or alive, real or fictitious. As the guests arrived they were greeted by Red Ridinghood, and were numbered and registered, and each given paper and pencil in the cloakroom. They were then announced hy Mother Goose and on to the reception committee, Wash- ington, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Grandma and Josiah Allen's wife. A prize was of- fered to the one who succeeded in placing the most characters, and also the one who best represented the original character. The last was carried off by *‘Mr. and Mrs. Micawber and the Twins.’ The guessing contest was lively and furnished ample amusement until the time came for refresh- ments, which were very light. While the guests were yet seated slips of each one was re- nested to write their earliest impression. These were gathered up and read, and ore- ated no end of fun. As the guests were leaving each wae given a sealed prophecy of their future, which were dainty and pleasing fortunes inclosed in the shell of an Euglish walnut. This was acknowledged to be the most pleasing event of the kind throughout the season. Why in the world, just because elbow sleeves are in fashion, does every woman don them irrespective of their appropriate. nese to the costume she buys? Yet as you fo along you notice women everywhere, their coat sleevescut off at the elbow, the long sleeves of their blouses stick out in anything but graceful fashion, sometimes made even more impossible hy loves—actually short ones—at the end of e long sheer sleeve ! Or, what is in equally bad taste, the blouse sleeve is cat short, too, but the wearer has been careless about putting on her gloves and goes along blissfa Ai scious that a bare arm with a walking suit is decidedly incongruous. Elbow sleeves belong only to the more formal types of dresses and should be strict- ting made with sleeves of elbow length, but the lainer styles—morning dresses and walk- Eo ekire and the rest of the less formal things—are better made with long sleeves. Two ions to this rule are the stun- ning new shirts the athletic girl is making herself still more fascinating in, and the pretty little morning dresses for porch and home wear, made of cool dimities and ba- tistes and those quaint, old-style linnes d’Inde, with their prim, set patterns. For athletics short sleeves are a positive delight—there’s no rolling the sleeve up to bave it come rolling down, very much mussed in the operation ;and home dresses are given a little feminine tonch by them which is charming. All told, the white wash kid glove is ideal. It is dainty and fine, and it is washed in soap and water. It costs $3.50 in the elbow length. A jaunty glove for commoner wear is the chamois. pr ——————————— THE REAL VALUE. flow All Literature Is Contained In a Few Great Books. Young people must every now and then hear it said or see it written that all the real value in literature can be put upon a small shelf—that is to say, the really important part of all that is written is tontained in a very few good books, all the rest being elther unimportant or different ways of say- ing the things that have been said before. The statement, of course, is net true If it be taken literally. There are certainly many hundreds. perhaps thousands, of books that con- tain original thoughts or experiences that are truly valuable; but, generally speaking, the best part of all that has been written is to be found in a few volumes. To understand how this is possible we must remember that near- ly all rules are the same as other and simpler rules. In arithmetic, for ex- ample, the whole science consists of only four simple ways of treating num- bers. We can add, subtract, multiply and divide, and that is all we can do to numbers. The rest of the book is only the working out of these four rules; thus all of the arithmetic could easily be put into a little page that one could carry in the vest pocket. All behavior, all right living, is also set forth in a few simple laws. Th illustrations will show what is meant by saying that all literature is contaln- ed in a few great books. The Bll and the works of a few famous poets and essayists contain all human wis- dom, and these are within the reach of every purse.—8t. Nicholas. THE WARLIKE MOROS, They Prize Their Weapons and Would Rather Fight Than Eat. An inordinate military conceit is a dominant quality of the Moro, To him there is but one measure of defeat—to wit, annihilation. If beaten, he ex- pects nothing less; if he meets less, he has saved the day, perhaps won a vie- tory. They are all of one professic arms. As children their first are wooden arms, their first instru the play of the sword and the spear. What ever else as men they may be—priest, farmer, robber, pirate, merchant, law- yer—they are always, first, soldiers. For a young man to lose his creese means to lose his right to marry, and it Is the desire of all to die creese in hand. In fear of loss they sleep on these precious arms or with them tled to the body. For the same reason their cannon are kept lashed to timbers in their houses. Firearms, indeed, are their main dan- ger with civilized people. If they see the opportunity thereby to secure such arms, Moros can never resist the temp- tation to rob and murder. To get them they will risk all, lose all and never whimper. To them without the best ey | arms death wera preferable.—Major R. L. Ballard in Metropolitan. A Fortune In & o..08. Song writing is cae of the most lu- crative of occupations, provided one has the knack of appealing to the pop- ular taste. The averaze writer stands a better chance of making money by producing pathetic rather than so called “comic” songs. “The Lost Chord” has made three or four fortunes. It has been the most lasting success on rec- ord, and for years Sir Arthur Sullivan, as composer, and Madam Antoinette Sterling, for whom it was specially written, received a royalty amounting to 12 cents each on every copy sold. It was a gold mine to the publishers too. Onion Soup and Fame. Membership in the French academy, the hoped for reward of Gallic ters, was once closely associated with onlon soup. During the restoration In France a club was formed under the title of “Diner de la Soupe a I'Onion.” This or- ganization contained twenty members. It met every three months, when the dinner was opened with an onion soup. The club was to endure until every as- soclate was elected to the academy. This was accomplished in 1845, when the last banquet was held. Pat's Escape. An Irishman, meeting another, asked what had become of their old acquaint- ance, Patrick Murphy. “Arrah, now, dear honey,” said the other, “poor Pat was condemned to be hanged, but he saved his life by dying in prison.” CASTOR The Kind You Have Arays Bought de borne the signature of Chas.

Notice twins hereafter, and you can say with certainty that the nar- rower faced one is the younger of the two. I have no authority for saying that fewer male than female twins are born, but I am of the opinion that the couple are more frequently girls or girl acd boy than boys. Twin brothers are few and far between.” A Husband's Retort, A man, accompanied by hig, wife, visited a merchant tailor to order a suit of clothes. The couple differed as io the material and the manner of mak- ing, and the wife lost her temper. “Oh, well,” she said, turning away, “please yourself. I suppose you are the one who will wear the clothes.” “Well,” observed the husband meek- ly, “I didn't suppose you'd want to wear the coat and waistcoat.” —Every- body's Magazine, Mistaken Ides. “It may be laid down as. a broad proposition,” said the professor of po- litical economy, “that you cannot get something for nothing.” “I once got the measles for nothing, professor,” interrupted the young man with the wicked eye.—Chicago Tribune, An Editor's Reply. “Why didn’t you retaliate when that fellow struck you?” “I didn’t know him, and it Is our rule not to pay any attention to anon- ymous contributions.”’—Bohemian.
