FLEXIBLE CFRRTCOMB.
Tho currying of a thin-skinned horse
Is often an operation as trying to the
tornper of the groom as to the hide of the
animal, and a considerable amount of
"-Jirncticnl philanthrophy is embodied in
such inventions as a flexible currycomb,
which hns recently made its appearance.
This comb hns a leather back and teeth
wade of coppered wire. The points of
the teeth are rounded and flexible, and
thus, w hile effectually cleaning the skin,
they obviate the excessive irritation suf
fered by many horses. It is claimed that
by this construction all the good points
of the softest rubber combs and those
. made with sharp teeth are combined, and
thus one comb will take the place of
two Chicago Xaei.
barns snort.n nAVE oood LionT.
One of the common faults of old barns,
nnd to some extent of many new ones, is
n lack of windows. Not, however, the
sliding pieces of board, which have been
diguiticri bythc name of windows, but
which only let in light when they are
open, and which seldom close tightly
1'iiough to keep out the wind and Vain,
but glass windows, which answer nil the
beneficent purposes for whic h such tilings
are made. Too many ttnbles arc com
paratively dark at mid-day, and toward
night become entirely so. The dark
ness is a constant source of dissatisfaction
to the owner of the stable, and to every
ono who has to take care of the stock,
"bi1 it cauuot be comfortable for the ani
mals. In coming from the light yard to
the dark stable, the cattle must feel un
comfortable, and as dark rooms are pro
nounced unhealthy for people, it is pos
sible that the influence of dark stnhln
upon tho health of the cattle confined iu
them is far from beneficial. Cattle like
the sunlight, nud it will pay to have
windows enough in the barn to supply
nil the light they need. The light will
be beneficial to the cattle and to the mcu
who take care of them, and will be fully
-aUUtiMcd by both of the pai tics.

11EMEDIES FOIl BEE MOTIIS.
E. H. Havens asks if there is any way
to prevent moths from getting into bee
I hives. There is no moth-proof hive.
" The best remedy or preventive is to
"keep all colonies strong," that they
may tight their own battle against the
moth, and destroy every moth, larva, or
chrysalis at sight. With the frequent
handling of movable combs,- in the
various operations incident to the season,
a worm in any part of tho bive can
readily be detected aud disposed of, and
there is little excise for allowing them
- to bocwijruumerous. A knife or other
sjfji pointed instrument should be at
-iand to administer speedy justice, as
everyone not destroyed soon becomes a
host. Combs taken from hives in which
bees have been wintered, and later in the
season, such spare- combs as the moth
may have had access to, should bo ex
amined, and if signs of its work are seen,
the tombs should be placed in a box and
-'U)icelc.dip .the fumes of brimstone.
If, from any mishap or carelessness, a
stock becomes so overrun with worms
as to be in danger of destruction, the
bee should be removed and the hive and
contents thoroughly fumigated with
brimstone. If any brood should be
worth saving, let it be cut out and cared
,for. The combs unfit for any purpose
should buried or burned. Farm, Fitld

FAUX AND GARDEN NOTES.
Two and three story barns ere a nuis

Too much water ends in bog or swale
grass.
If you want a thin crop skim the
surface.
Grass to bo permanent must have suffi

The greatest profit on a pis is in the
first 200 pounds.
Roasting cotton teed is said to crreatlv
improve its feeding quality.
If you do not havo running water trv
a windmill to work the pump.
The cheapest feed is that which crives
the biggest return for the cost.
The hens like a place where thev can

A little well rotted manure was never
known to injure either pasture or meadow
land.
Fresh eggs arc in demand these times.
Are you doiug vour share toward supply

Trim your fruit trees so as to irivc a
free, opeu top, no two limbs touchiuar or
crossing each other.
Farm products that excel in qualitv
and have an attractive appearance never
have to hunt a market.
Broadcast sowing ot corn indicates
broadcast sowing of profits, which pro
duce a worthless harvest.
Keep an account with the hons this
year nnd see if it don't pay. Find out
whether it pays to keep them.
During the dormant days of winter
fruit trees will feel tho effects of trim
ming !ess than at any other season.
The cow gets her exercise in gathering
food to fill her stomach. She is at rest
when she is doing her best in elaborating
milk.
Hen manure is no better than any
other manure unless tho food of the
hens contains valuable fertilizing ele
ments. If it does not pay to keep poultry on
tho farm, chango your management and
see if that does not produce a better sup
ply of eggs.
Ilortcnse Dudley says when Leghorns
aro cared for judiciously they may
doubtless be kept with profit until five
years of age.
A lot of fat old hens and males, be
they old or young, will reduce the aver
ago egg' production per fowl wonder
fully. Reduce the number of these in
the flock.
If you have no covered run for your
fowls, scrape the snow from tho ground
south of the hen house or barn and give
them a path to it and see what they will
do on a sunny duy.

Wood cutting naturally will be an oc

is far easier to cut and cord it before the
deep snows fall. It cau be hauled out
more easily on sleds after a good snow

Fruit growers subjected to premature
spring thaws should allow tho frost to
penetrato well into tho ground aud then
mulch their trees heavily. This will
prevent the trees from thawing and start

I Onyx In Mlssonrl.
( When water containing lime in solu
tion drips into a cave upon the ore of
metals it forms with them a chemical
combination and produce the exquisite
translucent substance we call Mexican
onyx. If the metalie oxide or ore is
jold then rich purple veins and splotches
ippear through the oynx( if silver, then
the coloring is yellow; if copper, green;
if iron, red.
Zinz and arsenic produce
white.
I Ages ago King Solomon mined this
' rare onyx in Africa. The deposit there
became exhausted. It Was found in
modern times nt Obcrstcin, In Germany.
; The deposits there failed, too, however.
Then the most beautiful decorative ma
' teriul known to man cropped out in
; America, but in Mexico, as if scorning a
' Yankee republic. For some years Maxi-
co has supplied tho world, the splendid
shining blocks of precious Value being
rut from the quarries by hand by Indians.
Machinery hat not been applied to it
hitherto to nny great extent, because the
tibstnncc is so fragile that any force
more violent than thnt of deft Indian
lingers wonld split It and luin it.
Now, however, a flut ter of interest hns
been aroused by tho announcement that
in Missouri, iu Crawford County, in tho
Ozark range, inexhaustible quarries of
onyx huve just been discovered within
seventy miles of St. bonis. This isgreat
news. Of course wo do not want the
magnificent Mexicnn onyx to become so
plentiful that it will bo vulgarised and
applied to all manner of base uses, but it
would be delightful if this material
should become so cheap that persons of
moderate mentis can have a little of it in
their homes. Thus every good thing is
found sooner or Inter in tho United
States. Jciteleri' Catalogue.

"August
Flower"
The Hon. J. V. Fennimore is the
Sheriff of Kent Co., Del., and lives
at Dover, the County Seat and Cap
ital of the State. The sheriff is a
gentleman fifty-nine years of age,
and this is what he says : "I have
" used your August Flower for sev
" eral years in my family and for'niy
" own use, and found it does nie
"more good than any other remedy.
" I have been troubled with what I
" call Sick Headache. A pain comes
" in the back part of my head first,
" and then soon a general headache
"until I become sick and vomit.
" At times, too, I have a fullness
" after eating, a pressure after eating
"at the pit of the stomach, and
"sourness, when food seemed to rise
" up in my throat and mouth. When
" I feel this coming on if I take a
"little August Flower it relieves
" me, and is the best remedy I have
" ever taken for it. For this reason
"I take it and recommend it to
" others as a great remedy for Dys
"pepsia, itc."

Rabbit Wool.
To look at the rabbit a a wool-bearing
animal aud source of annual profit is a
point of Viow that will certainly lie novel
to most people, but a student of the sub
ject declares that the fnbbit is valuable
when thus regarded. He yields a wool,
It is said, softer and finer than that of
sheep, and, besides its beauty, it Is be
lieved to have the valuablo attribute of
benefiting or curing rheumatism. Small
as ho is, his growth Is vigorous, and it is
t-stimnted that the amount of wool pro
duced by a rabbit in a year, ns he can be
combed several times and the wool grows
again, is worth about five trancs, which
is as much n the wool of a lamb would
fetch. London Standard.
