' Money spent for wood iisluw will al

able for nil clauses of soils, do not In
jure the land or the crops, and supply
both lime and potnsh aa plant food.
Good ronda will lessen the number ol
foundered horeos, will suvo time 13
dalivery, lesson the exertion of tha
etock. and also eventually decrease
taxo3 by being more durable and per
manent. Muck nnd marl are used as absorb
ents, being excellent for that purpose.
Marl contains a large proportion of
mineral matter in an insoluble condi
tion, but which In time ts converted
into plant food after being applied to
the soil.
The plow should be Adapted to tha
land. There are plows that are suit
able for hillsides, others for level
land, and they are made to turn the
furrows narrow or wide. Much de
pends on the texture of the soil In tUq
selection of a plow.
Heavy soils are always benefited by
lime. Lime is slaw in its action, and
may not show any benefit to tho soil
for a year or more, but there will ar
rive a time, when pood results will be
obtained, and tho benefit will be last
ing and apparont for many reasons.
Do not wait to procuro fertilizers,
but do so at once. Tho winter may
break up suddenly and give an early
Hprlng, at which time the fertilizers
.fhnuld bo npplied. It may be Incon
venient then to wait, and delays may
be dangerous. Fertilizers nnd seeds
should be ready before spring opens.
Do not lurn tho stock on the pasture
too coon. Give the gnuw an oppor
tunity to get a fair start and make
growth. Tho feet of the animals do
damage, nnd snoop graze very close tj
the ground. Tho pasture will bo all
the more serviceable by allowing the
grass an opportunity to grow.
Mixed food always gives better ro
jmltii than a sluglo diet. Corn is the
staple food for nearly all classrs of
stock, but corn i.s deficient In lima
and Is not suitable for growing stock
unless fed In connection with some
other kinds of foods. Mixed food af
fords a variety, and Is conrnqueaitly;
more highly relished.
Smoky Clilmnry.
Few things will raise- the ire of the
housewife or kitchen girl quicker than,
to be obliged to burn green wood, or
to endure the evils of a smoky chim
ney. But tha chimney affair should
be easily disposed of. Most smoky;
chimneys aro not built to tho proper
hlght, and It Is usually the kitchen
chimney that fulls to give a proper
draft to the stove, or discharge tho
etnoko at tho top in a satisfactory,
manner. The revolving patented ap
pliances to bo attached to the top of
chimneys do not always give satisfac
tion, and to obtain a proper draught
the chimney must often be extended
Iron Clilnmfy Top,
to the love! of the ridge of the main
building. This renders In most cases
a structure of brick quite impractic
able, hence resort must bo had to a gal
vanized Iron attachment that any tin
smith will furnish. (Seo cut.) It
should set down over one course or
layer of bricks. Put It In place some
still day, fir?t coating with mortar the
ides of brick to be covered by the
hood, that a close Joint may be had.
If not nioro than two lengths of pipe
are added two stays of wire attached
to the ridge will prove sufficient; It
tho distances is greater , use three stays
which will hold i! securely. In build

The use of sand as a filter for purl
fvint: water is being practiced in sev
oral largo cities, and the soil has long
been known to filter water, thus re
moving the solids and retaining them
aa plant food. Anything that will dis
solve in water, and for that reason
the well from which is drawn tho wa

should not be near manure heaps or

by many, as it doos not catch the sur

During the battle of the Wilderness,
says a Western exchange, Henry F.
Lowpenny, a corporal in the Thirty
second Indiana Volunteers, lost hla
rlglit aim at the elbow by the explo
sion of a shell. His cousin, Bradley
Jamison, ex-State Chancellor of Mis
souri, now lives on tho scene of the
battle, and recently, when his 15-year-
old son was bird's-nesting, he found
a nrst built In a skeleton hand in the ,
fork of a large maple tree. On the
hand was a seal ring, and on taking '
his strange find home the ring was at
once recognized as his uncle's. The
latter Is now dead, but the ring has
been sent to his widow, who lives
with a married daughter in Seattle,
Wash.
Queor Funrlm.
Some months ago a man went down
to the 'lake shore to commit suicide ,
and when he began to write a final '
message to his wife, he could think
of nothing to say except that some
butter which he had ordered would be
found at a certain grocery. His mes- :
sage bears out a certain fact discov- j
ered by realists, that In the supreme
and soul-terrifying moments of life
the most ridiculous and trivial things
often come uppermost In the mind.
The dying man comments upon the
ugly pattern of the wall paper In his
room, and the newly married couple
Is said to show an Invariable prefer
ence for talking about the weather.
Just the other day, says the Buffalo
News, a boy employed in a west-side
factory fell four stories down the
shaft of a freight elevator. By some
Interposition of fate or providence,
he landed on his feet, after turning
over a couple of times, nnd crawled
out of the bottom door with a silly
and mortified look on his face. Ex
cept for an inward Jolting and a few
bruises, he was not injured.
The men who had seen him fall
rushed to the bottom of the shaft, ex
pecting to find him lying there crush
ed and lifeless.
But he' was on his feet outside tho
shaft, catching his breath in an excit
ed, nervous giggle, and awkwardly,
brushing the dust off his clothes.
"Are you hurt?" they asked, taking
bold of him.
"N-n-no. I'm all right"
"Did you light on your feet?"
"I don't know. Leave me alone.
I'm all riant."
In a few minutes he had calmed
down, and one of the men asked hlra,
"What did you think of while you
were falling?"
"All I remember Is that the fcather
cleanln' place on the second floor was
shut down."
"Is that all?"
"I could see as I went by that there
wasn't any one working there. That's
every blamed thing I can remember."
He stuck to it. At an awful mo
ment when his past life should hove
come to him in a flash, he was taking
observations of tho "feather-cleanin'
place."

"That reminds me of a buffalo."
said Augustus Bramedagee, former
member of Congress, as he took a
packet of cough drops from the train
boy. "Whenever I see sugar or candy
I think of Indians and buffaloes.
"1 suppose you won't guess why.
Well, If you ever took a trip on the
western part of the Canadian Pacific
Hallway you would. You travel for
hundreds of miles, and all you see In
tho way of freight are plies of white
bonos standing by the side of the track
awaiting transportation.
"They are bones of buffaloes long
since dead, and the Indians collect
them from the plains and take them
to the track. There is a fellow In
St. Louis who pays them something
for them, one dollar a ton, I think,
delivered at the track side,
"The bones are used In sugar re
fining. I believe buffalo bones are
better than any other kind for that
purpose. Of course the redskins some
times try to ring in other bones, per
haps those of human beings.
"It is a strange thing," said the for
mer member of Congress, as he chew
ed on a cough drop, "that the noble
savage, who owes his extermination
to the whites, should be able to get
such a poetic revenge. The Ameri
can people are said to owe many of
their troubles to candy and sweet
things, and there are those redskins
out on the Canadian Pacific Road in
dustriously collecting bones and doing
their best to get even by encouraging
the production of candy."

Putting on Nw CIIotw.
In putting on new gloves, do so
carefully, for their after-wear depend
very much on the way they are treat
ed from the very begtnning. Never
put on gloves when you are in a hur
ry and just going out; rather choose
another time, when your hands are
cool and you have ten minutes or no
to devote to them. Before beginning)
operations dust a little powder Into
each glove, for this will cause thom to
slip on more easily. Work the Angora
woll on before putting in the thumb;
then work that In slowly, gradually)
smoothing the kid onto the hand.
When tha glovo Is carefully put on
pull It well down and button the sec
ond button, and any others that there
are, with the exception of the first,
leaving the first button until the last
If the hands are hot, remove the:
gloves, and then turn them Inside out,
pulling them carefully Into shape and;
leaving them in the air for an hour on
two before laying them away.
A glove-stretcher will be found of
assistance in the preparation of new
gloves for wear. It must, however, be
used with discretion, since It is quite
as annoying to have a glove that Is
too large as one that ts too small. In
buying gloves always provide your
self with a spool of sewing silk or Hnn
thread for mending, exactly the color
of the gloves.
Rvnnlt of Practice.
Perhaps, says the Sanitary Plumber,
the highest compliment that can be
paid a mechanic is to pay that he per
forms difficult work with ease; but it
adds that, whatever the work, ease In
doing it comes only as a result of long
labor that the uninitiated know noth
ln about. All ol which Is true and
scientific the deepest practical truth
and the highest practical science. The
man who thinks habitually when he
doos not have to think and work hab
itually when he Is not obliged to work
Is either a gonitis already or is making
UlmMlf one as fast as It an. he don.
Not a Ltvr of Discipline.
Tho Chinese sailor is not a lover of
discipline. He prefers perfect free
dom, vsixcial)y when ttio question of
leave is concerned. When Oapt. Lang
had charge of the Chinese Navy he
discovered tins weakness, nnd It gave
hlui a considerable amount of trouble.
He found ordinary methods of enforc
ing regtiliirlty utterly useless. )tlicer
nnd iin-n alike showed a total Indif
ference to his orders where leave of
alwence was concerned.
Following the example of the Em
peror of Germany, he determined on
a series of surprise visits, and on one
of these occasions he found that many
of the officers and men were on shore
without leave. Determining to enforce
discipline at any cost, he ordered all
the delinquents to be placed under ar
rest when they returned. This was
too much for the enoy-going China
man. Tlmt night every man Jumped
overboard and went home, utterly dls
usttnl with the service.
