FARM 15 U HOUSEHOLD. Treat all pUnts as weeds when they are Rrowicg where not wanted. Oils are tbe best grain for calves in their first winter, and they have the best eftict when well mticstened before feed lng. N' matter how bard the farmer works if he does not labor with skill he can Dot keep up with ths progress of the times. Like produce like, and it is impossi ble after grain is put into the bin to tell whether it came from a large, vigorous plaut or not. High farming is precisely like the keeping of superior animals. TDget the best return , not only the animals but the soil mast be well fed. Tn man who puts up a barb-wire fenc in Nebraska is responsible for any dmagp sustained by man or anima!s comi'ig in contact with it. The Ahurican Dnii-iHKm says a thor oughlned cow in a herd has a reiining influence in the family, and every farmer should have at least one in his herd. When any pait of the skin has Ueii frezru. apply snow, ice or cold water. The vicinity of a fire or a waim room should be avoided. If the p;iit blisters treat it as you would a burn. A drop of cold water placed in the lob.- of the ear will stop hiccough, or if this does not produce the desired effect, press Grmly on the arterieJ of the wrist where the pu!te is felt. None of th? minor ills of life is mure troublesome than an ingrowing nail. Bv pouring hot tallow in the corner of the nail, the hardened flesh is shrunken, tie nail softentd, and relief a!mo-it immediate. I) in't put off trimming the vines 100 late in the season, or it canno: be den at If the sap begins to flow cutting the vines will cause them to "bleed,'' and the consequence will be no fruit. Trim when the weather is cold. A tine saw is a good implement for Cutting off the larger grape-vines, and a sharp knife for the soj.iller ones. In all cases make a clean cut, without hacking cr brusing the wood which is to remain so the wound will heal up neatly and not leave a shattered stock to bleed and rot. Those who grow orchard grass should remember that, it is very early. It should be cut or eateu before the seed stock heconus hard. Thus treated it can be cut oftuer than any other grass, and when seeded o.i rich ground will make an astonishinz amount of feed per acre. A growing inability to sleep in sick ness is ominous of a fatal result ; in appirent health it indicates the failure of the mind and madness; so, on the other hand, in disease or dementia, a very sl!gbt improvement in the sleeping should be hailed as the harbirger of lesioration. Xany of the ills affectiug the hogs are dur to filthy pens. It is Lot so much in the amount of filth that the difficulty is met, as in the dampness caused by the filth. GooJ, dry quarters are essential at this season for the swine, as a larger amount of corn must be used when they are not comfortable. A bad bieath, no matter from what cause, may bo cured as follows : Three hours after breakfast a teaspoonful of the following mixture: Chlorate of potash, two drachms ; sweetened water, four ounces. Wash the mouth occasion ally with the mixture, and the breath Will be as sweet as an infant's. The Fort Wayne (Jazdtt says: Farmers should be sure and sign every paper pre sented to them by a stranger. If the stranger forgets to present one ak him about it It may be added, if signed, it may come back in the shape of a promis sory note in th bauds of the innocent(?) parties and the courts'have decided such must be paid. In preparing food for stock, such as cooked vegetable, chopped feed etc. . always season with salt. Every animal craves it and must have a certain amount of saline matter introduced Into its sys tem to enable It to thrive. Many ani mals really suffer for the want of salt and lose appetite, which is attributed to some other cause, It is claimed that a flock of sheep can be made more prolific by selection. In this way the Shropshires that have been improved so as to bring forth a greater number of lambs, are selected as breed ers, and gradually the breed has become more prolific, and each ewe, taking the flock as a whole, produces an average of one lamb and a half per year. A correspondent, who is an old fruit grower says that he prefers winter to spring for pruning his orchard. The tree perhaps does not do any the better for it, but the bark does not peel off so easily when rubbed by the ladder or the boot soles. Then, too, it is much easier gettiug about in the tree tops when the branches are free from blossoms or leaves. When pullets are forced to lay early, by stimulants or highly concentrated food, it is an injury, as it taxes the vital Ity. A pullet that is forced will lay very small eggs for a while, and when 6he ceases, in order to nest, she will not begin again as soon a a matured hen. She becomes piematurely old. and does not prove, on the average as profitable as when she is given ample time to ma ture before beginning to lay. Window plants that appear yellow and sickly are generally found to be suffer ing from too much water and too much in sect. The former is generally the trouble in window plants. If the pots are badly drained, the water does not get away, and for healthy plants the soil must dry raidly. If the plant dries so that it needs water at least twice a week it is In a healthy condition, riants should never have water when the soil is damp. When ahorse falls and fiuds it difficult to rise, spread a blanket, coat or robe in front of him, pull his front feet out from tinder him and spread them out on the blanket. Now when he attempts to rise and throws his whole weight on his front feet, they cannot elip from under him, because the blanket keeps his feet fron spreading apart. You will find this suggestion very convenient if your horse falls on a lonely road and you have no one to help get him up. i i KASKINE THE NEW QUININE. 5 R1V.IG F.IRS.

The Life of Man, At the age of 25 a man shou'd have cqu'red his maxirnum height, varying normally from five feel six inches to six feet. Ilia weight should slowly in crease throughout the adu!t period, be ini? at 30 a little less than the maximum, which should be reached at 40. The weight is very variable between the normal limits ; but the average among I men of medium height 25 years old may l be plncf-d at about 140 pound?.

' a . It. is said by a cotemporary that a game called"gossip." played with the ; 'd "carte de visile" photographs, is having a run now. Y-u shuffle and : deal them out, and every one in the parry teila everything mean that can be th- ught of about tl'e ierson represented i i ihe photograph. An exchange rt marks : "It is cer iainiy funny to hear a business man bowling about home industry when he ntit-s a rubbei siamp to make the most horrible daubs on letter heads and cards l.y which nice white paper is spoiled. A great many men's idea of patronizing ii :nif industries is for some one elso to do it." A little boy ran away from home, aiil while enjoying himself iu foibid U n fields, a thunder storm came up, and it began lo hail. II is guilty con science needed no accuser. Returning home, he burst into the presence of Li i cis.onished mamma, exclaiming breath lessly : 'Ma, ma, God's frowing stones at me !" It issaidtne exclamation "Rats!" originated several years ago at a thea tre in Chicago where a lot o! raw Ical ian ballet girls were dancing. They were awiully afraid ot tats and mice, av.d it was the favorite pastime ot the American uiembers of the company to t i ihten the ballerinis by yelling "Ratt-!" at them as they stood in the wings avaitifg to go jn, and then enjoy theit shouts of horror. By and by the word Came into use as a term of derision for a false alarm aud the street got hold of it. 'Ilow many toes has a cat?" This was one of the questions asked a certain class during examining week, aud simple as the question appears to be, none could answer it. In the emergency the principal was applied to for a solu tion, Hnd he also, with a good-natured 6mile, gave it up, when one of the teachers, determined not to be beaten ty a simple question, hit on the idea of sending out a delegation of boys to scour the neighborhood for a cat. When this i l a was announced the whole class w u.ted to join ir the hunt. Several boys went out and soon returned success ful. A'returning board was at otice ap pointed and the toes counted, when lo the relief of all it was learned that a cat possesses eighteen toes. !en on the front aorl eight on the hind feet. .!-ii sibii rjf A Crpsision K.

The ideal borne beautiful ii attained rather by avoiding errors of taite than by the adoption of special dogmas of art. For my own part, if I have any dogmas to preach they mav fairly be oondensed in thi9 one mle : "Avoid shams and affectations of all knds." Don't mistake mere prettiDPss for beautv. Millinery, for instance, is out of place in the home beautiful. Don't attach to your chairs and sofa cushions meaningless bows of ribbon which tie nothing. Don't dress up your toilet tab'es in muslin petticoats stiffend with crinoline or colored calico. Don't scaler s'artling white "tidies" about chairs and sofas as on eo many bushes, as if you were hanging out the wash to dry. Don't display on your walls china pl-ites and dishes. They were never meant to go there. An exception may be made now and then in favor of a piece of Cr.e color to help light np the room, or where a delicate china painting is worthy of careful examination. But bang up ordinary domestic china ?Don'tl Don't hang small pictures so that their beauty is lost to any one under eight feet high. If a picture Is Dot seen from the same position that the artist saw it when he painted it the drawing will ap pear foreshortened and the general effect consequently falsifies!. D.jn't hang any picture in tbe home which has not the impress of elegance, purity, and cheerf uln ss. D'in't give p'ace to representations of corpses, tortured saints, or anything oc casioning painful . motions. Above all, hnving such pictures and r.ot. waiting them down stairs, don't banish thtm to the nursery, schoolroom or bedroom. Some things I would relegate to the bedroom oul of the way some were in locked drawers for instance. I mean mementoes of seaweed and diied ferns or flowers, and wretched daubs on china, canvas or paper, the crude efforts of the youthful ruernbeis of your family, No true lover of the home beautiful will in flict these on his family and friends and compel them to violate truth by pretend ing to like them. Don't buy your carpet or wall paper because it looks pretty in the roll when you see it in the store. Think of tbe fit ness of each with its final surroundings remembering that the carpet is to be a oncksround for your furniture, and the wall paper, unless it is to be tht actual decoration of the walls, Is to be merely a background for your pictures. Don't admit into the home beautiful any piece of furniture or implement of everyday life which does not honestly serve its purpose no light, flimsy chairs which an ablebodied man dare not sit upon ; no puffy, debilitated sofas, all wind and springs ; no burnished brass sheeted fire-irons, bought only to be looked at. and give place to the ugly little black poker and shovel when coal is to be broken or ashes are to be re moved. There is no reason why an object should not be useful as well as orna mental. Indeed, there can be no beau ty without Stness. Nature everywhere teaches us the compatibility of the highest utility with the greatest beauty. And so with beauty and truth. There may be truth without beauty, but there is no beauty without truth. Truth, beauty and utility are the inseparable trinity of the ideal home. Let us then write them upon the portal of the house as the epitome of all that is most admi rable in religion, in art and in everyday lire. Sew Uses for the 5ew Light. A striking instance of faith In the , wonderful resources of electricity is J had in the proposition of soma of the j florists of this viclBity to try the effect ; of light from that source in developing roses. In the greenhouses around here j roses are said to be on the point of bursting forth in all their beauty. Con tinuous sunshine for a short period would perfect ihem. But cloudiness has prevented that. This idea is not entirely new. Ex periments with V have been made w ith some degree of success, but tbe best evidence of the virtue of the light was obtained by accident. A gentleman in whose yard there was an electric light discovered that the roses which received Its rays developed better than those which did Dot. TVith the sunshine by day and the electric light by night they were under what seems to have been sucb conditions as vegetation is said to have been under at the North role when, according to a learned theory, that region was Eden'e. They had steady light duiing the whole period of their growth. If electric light will serve the purpose contemplated, the value of it can be easily understood. Fiom a business point of view it would be of importance to a florist to be able to supply the market with roses days in advance of any one else. But the commercial aspect of the in stance aside, the idea of substituting artificial for 6olar light in the opera tions of nature is a cuiious and instruc tive illustration of belief in the almost limitless resources of an agency which, practically, has been made known to the world within the last few years. One of the highest authorities on mining intimates that the electric light will in due course of time supersede the pit lamp in coal mines. The desira bility of the change is apparent to the most casual observer. The chief diffi culty, however, lies in the practica bility. The electric lamp for mines has not yet been invented which combines low cost aud convenience of handling. These difficulties, once overcome, there is no dosbt but that our mines will be lighted by electricity. 'Now, young lady, you may take the stand," said the lawyer in a case in one of the justices' Courts the other day "Yes, air," she replied with a beaming smile. "That does me up I" whisper ed a roan on one of the benches; "I'm her husband, and she's 40 years old, but the sugar on that lawyer's tongue will cost me 130 for millinery before the 1st of May."
