NEWS AM) NOTES FOR WOMEN. THE FARM AND GARDEN. TCH10 and Wrick is a fosnionnhlo combi nation. The Duchess of Fife lins a reputation for making butter. There are women on school boards iu six cities in Norway. Mrs. Watts Hushes has made a dis covery by which the. voice can be photo graphed. Mine. Patti, it is said, has an insatia ble appetite for stewed prunes, which she cats for her complexion. Alpaca gowns arc made up with jacket bodices which open over a very full vest, und with plain, straight skirts, "fwo rows of satin piping folds, of the. old-fashioned kind, were noted upon a recently imported London gown. Two hundred thousand unmarried women and girls are said to bo employed in various trades in South London. Among the recent importations of pas sementeries itrc skirt fronts, petticoats, borders, Figaro jackets and sleeves. Mrs. Emma P. Ewing, the lecturer on cookery, says that Americans arc sadly ill-cducatc4 in the philosophy of the tablo. Some very handsome tints of heliotrope have appeared among the light-weight woolens, faced cloths, fancy suitings and silks. A novel finish noted upon the edge of a largo hat of white Italian straw was a, buttonhole stitch embroidery iu black and yellow silk. Flat gold braid or galloon, from one third of an inch to two inches wide, is used to trim many of the new gowns of velvet or wool. The new parasol is made with a hollow handle which serves as a rceeptaclo for hairpins, a powder rag, viuaigrette, pen cil and what not. The newest capes of black lace have a yoke nnd Medici collar of velvet or ben galine, of any preferred color, from which the plaited lace falls nearly to the waist. Mrs. T. Shcphard, of Ventura, Cal., is a successful florist aud seedswoman. She has been in the business seven years, ' and now has over five acres in seeds, plants and bulbs. The fact that the Princess of Wales wore a gown of a beautiful shade of golden olive at the Queen's recent Draw- ing Room will be likely to render yet more popular this favorite color. Skirts of Scotch plaid silk, in quite gay colors, are being imported. They have two pinkod-out frills at the foot and may be worn ns petticoats, or as matinee skirts to wear witu lancy jacKcts or blouses. Many new foulard gowns havo the Blecves and part of the waist of cream or back guipure nut or embroidery, the leg-of-mutton sleeves being cither trans parent or made up over silk of the pre vailing color of the foulard. Miss Elaine, one of the Goodale sis ters, has been made Superintendent of all the Indian schools iu the State of South Dakota. She has already had "an abundance of experience at General Arm strong's school at Hampton, Va. Dr. Helen E. Webster, of Lynn, Mass., has been recently called to till a vacancy iu the English department at Vassar. She is one of tho three women who have received a degrco of doctor of philos ophy from the University of Zurich. Among the new handkerchiefs are to be seen some very dainty ones made of hemstitched, Vienna cambric, one corner having the appearance of being turned back, and on this piece a disk resem bling a large seal is wrought in white or colored silk. About 36,000,000 of women are en gaged in British India in some descrip tion of classified work roughly, a little less than one-third of tho entire femalo population, which includes, of course, an enormous proportion of infants and j young girls. Ladies who are fond of novelty will wear cloth coats of gray blue, light stem ., green or the delicate Parma violet shades, with garnitures of gold, copper or silver braids, and either metal or pearl buttons, the latter being used to fasten tho gar ments, instead of serving as mere ornaments. The foster-mother of the little King of WORK IN A SwAMP. The farmer who has ft muck swamp on his farm has a mine of wealth. Every ton of pure swamp muck, that consists of decayed vegetable matter free from sand, is worth from one to three dollars per ton as it lies on tho bank after having been dug two or tlnee months and drained. It contains from one and a half to three per cent of nitrogen, inert and insoluble, it is true, but made easily available by judi cious treatment. At the price of inert nitrogen in fertilizers that contained in n ton of good muck is worth from two to six dollars, counting the price at ten cents per pound. Thousands of farmers buy nitrogen in fertilizers at nearly double this price, when by making compost of the muck they may get from twenty to sixty pounds of available nitrogeu from every ton of it. The winter season is the best time for working in a swamp, mak ing drains, and getting out tho muck. American Agriculturist. nti.T.ixu or nniLi.tNO. On the same acreage a larger crop of cither kiud of cultivated crop can be grown by planting in hills rather than m drills. But as clean cultivation is neces sary to secure a good growth and yield the cost of cultivation must be consid ered in determining the profits. That is, in nn average soil, it is more expensive to give clean cultivation with drill planting than with hill, and the principal question to determine is whether the better yield secured will pay for the additional cost. Phnted in hills nearly or quite all tho cultivation can be given with the team and cultivators, but iu drills in a ma jority of cases it will be necessary to use the hoe to a more or less extent, and this increases the cost. The amount of hoe ing that will be necessary depends largely upon the condition of tho soil. If the soil is in good tilth before planting the seed so that the harrow can bo used early iu cultivating so that the weeds can be destroyed before they make a fair start, and then if care is taken in work ing the cultivator close to the plants the work of keeping clean can be materially reduced. A soil that is foul with weed seeds is much more difficult to give clean cultiva tion than is a less weedy soil. Often uew ground can be planted in drills and very good cultivation be given with very little hoeing a jd a good growth and yield be secured. Potatoes, cane and benu at least should be planted in drills, and it wiJJ be better to hoe two or three times rath-.T thau to plant in bids, but with corn as a rule, in what may be termed average ground, the more economical plan will be to plant in hills so that the cultivation can be given both ways, then if care is taken at the start to work close to tho nlauts the weeds can be kept down. It is not nec essary to stir the soil deep but it is very Important that the soil should be stirrod thoroughly, kept clean ir.nl mellow, and the better this is done the hatter will be the results secured.

A sowing of radishes should be made every ten days until the first of Juno, and then again in September. Pens should also bo sown in succession until the first of June, riant a few at a tune, in order that the whole crop may bo consumed when in tho best possible condition. It is far better to cat canned peas than half-ripened ones from tho vines. A planting of peas can be made to ndvantago after early potatoes, if tho proper kinds are selected, nnd for this purpose the various "earliest of all," or this class of smooth peas, nro tho best. It is folly to plant for a lato crop the lanrc, wrinkled varieties, as only a crop of mildew will be tho result. Two plantings of beets iu spring and ono iu August will keep up a succession of this vegetable, tender and sweet. Sweet corn should bo planted every week, say twenty hills at a time, from tho first of May until tho middlo of July; this will afford nn ample supply for nearly three months. Beans should bo planted at intervals of two weeks, the last planting to bo made tho first of August. This crop, if not wanted for snap-boms, can bo used to good ad vantage for pickling. A small planting of strap-leaf turnips should bo made as early as possible in the sc:ison, and another on the ground where the early peas or potatoes were growu. A still later planting of turnips, as well as rutalvulas, can bo mado about tho first of August on any vacant grouud. Wherever thero is a vacant spot, no mat ter how small, spinach should bo sown, if for no other purposo than to turn under as a vegetable manure. It. is important to make a late as well ns an early plant ing of tomatoes. For tho first, put out strong, stocky plants, for tho second, drop a seed or two in each hill of early corn, and, ns soon as the corn is done, cut the stalks to the ground, and a splendid crop of tomatoes will be secured, which comes iu very useful after tho first has ripened its best fruits. By this method of phntiug, tho garden will yield more than double its usual crop, and tho vegetables will bo far better than the straggling, tough, indigestible things usually gathered. American Agriculturist. SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL. MAKE AN ASPARAGUS HF.D. Asparagus is as easily raised as any thing that grows in the garden, and yet it is comparatively rare to fine it on n farmer's table. The reason may be that so much nonsense has been published about the difficulties of raising it, nnd that we have to wait two or three years for the full maturity of the plant. It is true that a full crop will not be given in less than three years, but when the bed is once made, the job is done for a dozen or twenty years. If it is made this spring there will be one season less to wait. Any good, well-drained soil that is fit for corn is suitable for asparagus. Put i snlt barrel of stable manure to every six square feet of grouud. Spade deep, work thoroughly, and cover the surface with two inches of rich, light soil. Now work off in drills, one foot apart, after separating the seed from the hulls. Plant them five or six inches apart in the drills, cover carefully and tramp firmly with the feet. The seeds germinato quicker :f soaked a few days before planting-. Care must be taken to keep the bed free from weeds, nnd a deep hoeing be giveu every two weeks. When the plants are well up they must Spain is Maximina Pedraga, a h.undsome be thinned to one foot apart.

If a fruit shipper have you made ar rangements for this year's supply? A solution of tobacco and soap will keep the aphis away from houey suckles. Fix up the front fence, clean up the corners aud don't have stock in the door yard. "Snide"' packages don't help to sell fruit, neither do shabby, poarly made ones. Peas, lettuce, radishes and onions from sets will stand quite a freeze. Get somo iu early. If you wish large, firm strawberries furnish potash. AVood ashes will supply it. Apply before dry we.uiier. Slake your plantings small enough to take care of them but large enough to supply all you uced for homo use at least. The hay seed, broken leaves of clover and damaged grain of all kinds can be utilized for feeding poultry to better advantage than to allow it to bo thrown away. Incubator hatched chicks do not re quire food until twenty-four honr3 after they nre hatched. Keep them in a com fortably warm brooder away from light or drafts. "Cleanliness is next to Godliness." This can well be tacked on tho walls of a cow stable as a reminder that success de pends to a large extent on the practical application of this maxim in all operations of the dairy. One of the reasons poultry pays on some farms is because of the vast amount of waste food consumed and converted into eggs and meat. Thero is no neces sity for feeding poultry a large portion of tho year when the barnyard is ac cessible to the hens. Wideawake farmers own pure-bred fowls, which cost no more to feed, and the ratio of profit is greater thau with barnyard stock. Why should not every farmer do so? Better test this matter thoroughly this sprin Experience will certainly prove its wisdom. Special attention should now be given to brood sows. They should not under any consideration b3 closely confined. Tho run of a huge pasture, though it seem too dry to furnish any food, will bo of value, as the hog will pull up roots and other green stuil to relax the bowels and purify the blood. Those who have never raised ducks do not know that ducklings grow much faster than chicks, and come at a time when the best prices for chicks have passed. Ducks will lay at least one hun dred and forty eggs a year, and will be gin when six months old. The Pekin is a creamy white, by many considered tho best for" the farmer, being hardy aud of good sua dressing, when in market con dition, to meet the most cxactiug tastes. Thoso who have had experience ia feeding sugar beets to hogs consider them of great value. We have lately heard of a case where farmers in Nebraska bought su"ar beets at a high price to feed their hogs. The sugar beet, from the largo auiount of sugar and water and the small amount of fibre it contains, is easily Ui .rested aud at the same time very uutri tious. As a counter irritant when fed with corn to hos thev are doubtless worth bushel for bushel with corn. Many country dwellers have never thought of raising fruit and poultry in the same yard. They work admirably together. A row oi pium or pen-- ticca German experiments havo proven that sea mud is a much better fertilizer for rye and oats than farm yard manure. Trials of the latest express compound locomotive in Kngland with a special train of eighteen carriages developed the unparalleled speed of about ninety miles an hour. The highest speed, as measured by a stop watch, was just over ten sec onds per quarter-mile run. When the current in electric railways passes from the car wheel to the track, it causes a considerable increase in friction between the two. Expert opinion seems to favor the theory that this additional resistance is duo to a slight welding ac tion caused by tho heat generated by the urreut. The most recent observations as to the imountof heat tho earth receives from tho sun show that in clear, pleasant iseatherl)3l per cent, of heat is nb jorbed by the atmosphere and only 36 i per cent, reaches the soil. The figure rises in October to 41 per cent, and sinks to 23 per cent, in January. The Paid process of sterilising milk lias recently been introduced in London. Fresh milk is placed in cans which .are hermetically sealod, then heated and cooled alternately until tho germs are de stroyed. Tho milk can thou bo kept for yean without loosing its freshness, or failing to yield cieam and butter. The medicinal virtues of the apple nre sounded on all sides by the scientists of Europe. It is said to neutralize the evil effects of eating too much meat, and the Herman chemists stato that it is richer than auv other fruit or vegetable in phos phorns. an clement that is useful iu re newing tho essential nervous matter of tho brain nnd spinal cord. D. Morris, tho assistant director of the Kew Gardens, London, claims to have discovered tho wav to raiso sugar cane from seed instead of from cuttings, which has been the former method, nud expects to realize great results from the crossing of breeds and the improviug of the stock as well as the cheapening of cane rais- in:r. The seed he discovered by the nul of n microscope in the panicle or flowery head of tne cane. Investigations into the effect that, alti tudo has upon the growth of plants in the Alps and Pyrenees result in proving that height is found to produce modifi cations not merely in the shape, bat in the thickness of tho bark, the color of the leaves aud flowers, and even in tho anatomical structure of certain organs Tho leaves especially become thicker at great heights, and their faces oftun havo a double layer ot cellules. Parisians were lately treated to a rare effect of mirage. The Eiffel Tower was seen surmounted by an inverted image of itself, vertical in the heavens and looking like a duplicate continuation of the real structure. Tho base of the image lost itself In the upper mist, while behind tho tower was a low cloud which gleaned like silver. The sun was shining across the haze to the left of tho tower and cou tributed nu additional effect of light and shadow. A siinnlo plan for protecting sheet iron stacks has been successfully resorted to. viz. : before raising a new chimney each section, as it conies from the shop. is to be coated with common coal tnr. then tilled with lisjht shavings and tired it will, thus treated, resist rust for an in definite period, rendering future paint ing unnecessary. The theory by which this effect is accounted for seems quite reasonable, namely, that the coal tar is literally burned iuto tho iron, closing the pores and rendering it rust proof.

"I saw two girls with their escort walking up Corey Hill, yesterday," says an observer ot girls, "One of them went up like a rubber ball, bouncing and bounding at every step, chattering briskly to her couipanioo ns she went and stop ping uow and then to pant a little aud take a fresh start both with her bounding way of walking and with her chatter. Preseutly her friend came ipuietly along. She was letting the young man besido her do the talking, and she was mounting the long hill with short, inelastic steps. She used her heels us well as her toes in going up hill." It is a good rule for hill-clin.bing and one to be remembered iu going upstairs. Women doctors say, and many women prove it in practice, that by going upstairs slowly, with the foot heel and too alike put firmly on each stair, one may arrive at the top of four flights of stairs really rested, instead of gasping for breath as when one runs up stairs. Going upstairs is a good form of exercise if one goes the right way to get its benefits. Boston Trantcript.

A novel and somewhat scientific scheme for relieving ladies of their purses has been successfully carried out by a gang of thieves in Chicago. The scheme is to give the victim a violent electric shock, thus temporarily paralyz ing her. The most recent victim was Jus. Jacobsou, a professional nurse. She was relieved of a nurse eoutaiuiug auu several bundles by tho electric method. She was returning home on Centre ave nue, near Milwaukee avenue. As sne issed in the shadow of a budding two men brushed ayainst her. One of them touched her wrist with a piece of metal. She at once received a violent electric shock that caused her to let go her purse uud several bundles and sent her reeling adjust the building. She was so dazed for the moment that she did not realize whut hud happened. As soon us she re covered from the etlects of the shock she begun to look around for her purse aud bundles. They were not in sight. Then it dawned upon her that she had bcea robbed. The two men who naa passeq her were just turning on Milwaukee ave nue. Quickening her steps she loliowea them, hoping to meet an officer that she might have them placed under arrest. At Chicago avenue she quit the pursuit und ran to the police station and told what had occurred. An otlicer was seni out with her, but the men could not be fouud. A similar case was reported early iu the week by Miss Czarkofski, a young hidv tvnewriter. who lives on Noble street.

A "leat discovery 'I '"sil footprints hn i tee il made ut u miurry in llolyoke, I .Mass. llera is a clean auiface of shale, about lUUxlU feet, on which aro seen about two hundred tracks. Nearly all nf tlie.rn areiu rows, the longest one cou- tainiug seventeen tracks. The tracks ure from sis to eight inches in length, and were probably made by a reptile that, if it hud frout feet, bel lorn used them. 'Ihis is without doubt, the largest. uncovering of tracks for mauy years. The fir.,t Swedish female physician to engage in regular practice is Dr. Caroline. Wdiierstrom, who has just opened an mflee in Stockholm, ini house in question lias lor pets a oauy mud turtle and several goldtishes. The turtle is frequently placed in the tank with the fish. The other day he lay floating on the surface of the watoi asleep, aud with his four legs out. The goldfish saw in this a chance to play a trick on Mr. Turtle, aud, after putting their heads together a few minutes, they divided into four groups, and, seizing his feet in their mouths, dragged him to the bottom of the tank When awakened by bis sudden immer sion ho had considerable dimculty in shaking himself free from his tormentors, There tauuot be the slightest doubt that the fishes hud suuie means of communicat ing their ideas to each other, for it was plain to those who observed the incident that the trick was the result of precon certed action.
