NAMING TIIE FARM.
Says the Rural New Yorker: "What
is the financial value of an attractive
name for a farm? The bestowal of dis
tinguishing names is becoming somewhat
general ; why not give sufficient thought
and deliberation to the selection of
pleasing, and where practicable, charac
teristic ones! Doesn't such a designa
tion help to make the pleasant associa
tions of a place more lasting! Then,
again, the owner of "Brookside," "The
Onks," "Elinswood" or "Bayviow," cati
hardly bo looked npon as a "common
farmer." Moreover, such a name is a
conscious or unconscious stimulus to the
owner's best efforts to improve and beau
tify the farm, and take precaution that
its products shall be first-class and leave
it only in first-rate shape. Then, if the
goods are stamped with the name of the
place, hasn't it a commercial value onco
its reputation has been established! Let
there be more distinguishing names for
lsrms, ana let them be always attractive
and characteristic."
FEEDING SALT TO HOUSES, SHEEP, ETC.
It will not make much difference
whether horses are given salt once or
twice a week, or have it placed in the
form of large lumps where they can lick
it whenever they want it, but in no
case should a large quantity bo mixed
with their food. If rock salt is used it
should be placed in a manger or box,
separate from the oue used lor grain and
other food; then there will be no danger
of the animal eating more thaa he needs
at oue time. Sheep require salt as well
as hoists, and if deprived of it they are
very likely to be infested with various
kinds of internal parasitej, such as the
liver fluke, tapeworm, hair worms in the
intestines, etc. Common salt is nature's
vermifuge and destructive to intestinal
worms, and for this reason, if for no
other, domesticated animals should
always be provided with all their appe
tites may crave. Sheep in regions where
they are deprived of salt are very likely
to be infested with tapeworms, aud their
flesh is unfit for human lood on this ac
count. The green scum teen on the sur
face of the water of stagnant pools or
ponds is composed of minute aquatic
plants, and when these die and decay
they emit the strong odor to which you
refer. The best way to sweeten such
pools if they cannot be drained is to
utilize them for geese or duck ponds.
Water fowl will agitate and force air
into the water and soon purify it. Sow
wild or cultivated rice about the border
of your pond and let water fowl gather
the crop. New York Sun.
FARM DRAINAGE.
Where water after rains stands for a
long time in the furrows aud slight de
pressions in the ground, and on lands
where the shoes of the farmer, except
in periods of drought, are habitually
clogged with sticky mud, and the hoofs
of animals as they siuk into the yielding
oil make cavities that maintain their
shape, for days, oftentimes holding water,
the necessity for drainage of some kind
is too clearly indicated to admit of any
doubt. For changing such unfavorable
conditions, wherever the lay of the land
will permit, open surface drainage is
often resorted to at first.
While such drains are useful in some
cases in the matter of a permanent im
provement of the soil they amount to
but little and aro liable to be the cause
of impoverishment in the soil itself by
carrying od fertilizing matter into tho
gullies aud streams. Where the surplus
rain that falls upon the ground can be
led off from the surface in the same
clear state in which it descended from
the clouds, the soil receives no injury
from its escape, but it is only under
occasional peculiar conditions that this
will occur.
This is so well understood by most
cultivators that other methods have
come iuto use. One, formerly more
commou that at present, was to throw
the wet laud into high and wide ridges
in the fall and leave it in that condition
until spring. When cultivation is about
to bet;in these ridges artj turthcr widened
and flattened out, alluidmg a series of
rather wide spaces, much better fitted
for cultivation, but with very uudcsiiuble
ditches between them, often holding
staguaut Water throughout the entire
itusuu. While such a piactice will not
draw fertility away from the soil, it con
signs a considerable portion of it. to nun
usage aud is otherwise objectiuuablo m
inauv rcaiiccls. -
The only real and pri t ti tl method of
improving wet farm luuus uy which their
condition is permanently changed for
the tetter is by the use of underground
drains for which tile is the most common
and best material. Where these are
placed at proper deptls, say from throe
to four feet, aud til suitable distuuees

Wi
compactness of the Soil to b drained

surface water may contain will ba

Furthermore, the upper line of the
ground water sinks below the level of
the drains, and the benefit ot this form
of drainage is realised by the soil above
them becoming favorably changed in
its general Character and earlier and
better fitted for crops. Now York

IMPROVED ttBTIIOD OP KILLING . BOGS.
There is no necessity to have a crowd
of men about, to kill and dress few
hogs. There is no reason Why a farmer
with hts dozen pigs may not make use of
the same mcchauical appliances that are
used by the great slaughterers. Of course
it is not suggested that he should have
any costly apparatus, but there are some
readily made devices by which one man
may do as much as three or four, and,
with one helper, the dozen pigs may be
made into finished pork botwcea break
fast and dinner, and without any excite
ment or worry or hard work.
It is suppesed that the pigs are in a
pen or pens, where they may be easily
roped by a noose around on hind leg.
This being done the animal is led to the
door and guided into a box, having a
slide door to shut it in. The bottom of
the box is hinged lid. As soon is tb
pig is safely in the box and shut in by
sliding down the back door, and fasten
ing it by a hook, the box is turned orer,
bringing the pig on his back. The bot
tom of the box is opened immediately,
and one seizes a hind toot, to hold the
animal, while the other sticks the pig in
the usual manner. The box is turned,
and lifted off lrom the pig, which, still
held by the rope, is guided to the dress
ing bcuca. All this is done while tho
previous pig is being scalded and dressed,
or at such a patt of the work that as
soon as one pig is hung and cleaned, the
next one is ready for the scalding.
The scalding vat is a woodon box with
a sheet iron bottom, so that a small fire
may be kept under it to maintain the
proper he.it of the water. This is 180
degrees Fah. orighty-two degrees C.
Or the vat may be replenished with hot
water from an adjacent boiler. This vat
is placed close against the dressing tabic,
so the carcass may be rolled on to a bar
rel table that is immersed in the hot
water the full depth. This barrel table
may be made in various ways. It may
consist of slats, fastened at each end,
and the middle to chains, by strong sta
ples, so that it is pliable, and the hog
may be embraced by it and easily turned
nut of the water by two short rope han
dles, or one attached to a pulley block
on a bar over it.
As the carcass is dressed it is lifted by
a hook at the end of a swivel lever
mounted on a post and swung around to
the hanging bar, placed convenietly.
This bar has sliding hooks, made to re
ceive the gambrcl sticks which have s
hook permainently attached to each so
that the carcass is quickly removed from
the swivel lever to the slide hook on the
bar. Tho upper edge of the bar is
rounded and smoothed and greased to
help tho hooks to slide on it. This serves
to bang all the pigs on the bar until they
are cooled. If four persons are employed,
tins work may go on very quickly, as
they mav divide tho work betwoen them,
and one pig be scalding and cleaning
while anotoer is being dressed. The en
trals should be dropped into a wheel
barrow, as they are taken from the
animal.
Where ten or twelve pigs are dressed
every year it will pay to have a suitable
building arrauged for it. An excellent
place may be made in the driveway be
tween a double corncrib, or in s wagon
shed or an annex to the barn where the
feeding pen is placed. The building
should have a stationary boiler in it, and
such apparatus as has been suggested,
and s windlass used to do the lifting.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
- The way to spoil a hog Is to overfeed
him with corn.
Cook the small potatoes and feed them
to the poultry.
Allow at least one foot square to each
fowl on the roosts.
The way to spoil a cow is to pound
her with the milking stool.
T. II. Lloskins says thai all the Rus
sian apples do finely in Vermont.
Contentment, rest and plenty of proper
food are the best aids in fatteniug fowls.
The way to spoil a driving horse is to
cut him with the whip when he does not
expect it.
When it is an item to have the eggs
hatch use a rooster that is not too fat or
too heavy.
The fattening of poultry should al
ways be done as rapidly as possible to
save time and expense.
A good work can be done in keeping
down the lice in the poultry-house if
care is taken to whitewash the inside
regularly every month or six weeks.
With good laud the average farmer
succeeds very well in growing crops and
at moderate cost. But how to keep his
land good at least cost is the matter
wherein he fails.
The Farm Journal suggests that it is
a good time to make those high bushel
boxes that crate up one above another
and are so handy in field and cellar at
root harvest. They come in right for
apples aud for retail marketing.
Fruit, shade and e?ergreen trees
standing in grass ground should have
the grass removed ana a mound of fresh
earth tlie size of a water pail placed
above the true. This needs to be dons
every foil and removed in the spring.
A. W. Cheever, iu tne New England
Farmer, says. "The Baldwin is speciady
superior as a market apple, beeause it
comes into bearing early, is a great
bearer aud the fruit suits the market,
both here aud abroad. The Northern
Spy may be the next choice, but it so
the grower must expect to wait a long
time for his returns, as it cornea into
l.citritin lute, sevtrul years behind the

One of the moat cruel things whtoh Wicked
men can do is to sell strong drink to ignor

of strong drink are sent from Europe and
America to Africa to poison the benighted
Africans! and ot late strong drink has been
sold in Alaska to the Indians, and has pro
duced most ruinous result. The Govern
ment prohibited such sale, and now and
then a man gets what he deserves, Htepnen
Merritt, of New York, who visitel Alaska,
says he saw a man sent to prison for nine
months for selling a bottle of whisky.
He was fireman on the ship in which Mr.
Merritt sailed, and when he went on shore
in Alaska be took a bottle ot whisky which
cost bitn a dollar, thinking to make some
thing by selling it for a larger amount. An
Indian woman bought the whisky and paid
him two dollars, so he mule a dollar; but he
violated Unite i Stttss lasr, and mo found
that he was "out of a job," and was landed
in jail for nine raxiths. Mr. Merritt and

TWO VICTIMS OF RUM.
Robert and Benjamiu Hauton, father and
son, living on First avenue, in New York
City, died within a few minutes of each
other on a recent night from t.ie eiTec ot
rum. The tenement in which they lived is
occupied principally by Italians. One of tbs
tenanta, while going out to bis work at 5
o'clock in tlie mornm;, stumbled over tlie
body of a man at the foot of the stairs. Ha
tummoned i'atrolman Uarcy, who found
that the body was still warm. The patrol
man called an ambulance. The surgeon ex
amined the man and fouud be was dead. He
said deatn was due to alcoholism and
Blight's disease. The man was recognistd
as Benjamin Hantou, a shoemaker, forty
five years ot age, who lived with his father
on the third floor of the house.
Oue ot the tenauts ran upstairs to Inform
Benjamin's father, and was horrified to tin J
him Iving dead iu bed. The father's name
was Robert, and be was seventy -eifiltt years
of age, a coal heaver who for thirty years
bad been employed iu a coal yard in Har
lem. The police commenced an investigation of
what appeared to be a mystery. They found
thnt for years tile Haiitous, father an t son,
had lived iu two squalid rooms. Both were
intemperate, but bad the reputation ot be
ing misers, and it was supposed they bad
money on deiosit in a downtown saviugs
bank. It was evident that both deaths ha J
resulted from natural causes, anl whatever
mystery there was was dispelled by James
Fittpatrick, ot High Bridge, a brother-in-law
of Robert Hauton, who said the old
man bad died suddeuly, anl his son had
gone out to make arrangements for his fath
er's funeral. It is supposed that Bsnjimiu
got drunk, and on his return fell down
stairs, the shock killiug him, as he was in a
wes.k condition from alcoholism and kidney
disease.
Old Mr. Hauton bal been a widower for

A Gigantic kt iMoth
Workmen in clearing the right of way
for an extension of the (ram road for the
Yellow Tine Lumber Company, near
Colmesnio!, Texas, dug up an immense
beech log, under which was found a hu
man skeleton, the bones of which wcro
only partly decomposed. The skeleton
was that of a man of gigantic frame,
and the skull was cleft as if with tom
ahawk. An Indinn tomahawk and nu
merous flint arrow heads were found be
sido the skeleton. The spot where th
discovery was made is six miles from
Colmosniol, on the Trinity Hiver, in tho
ROYAL BAKING TOWDER imparts that pecul-
iar lightness, sweetness, and flavor noticed in the
finest food, and which expert pastry cooks declare is
no obtainable by the use of any other raising agent.
Royal Baking Powder is shown a pure cream-of-tartar
powder, the highest of all in leavening strength.

Royal Baking Powder is superior in purity,
strength, and wholesomcncss to any other powder
which I have examined. Neu? York State Analyst,

Justice to All.
It is now apparent to the Directors of the World's Columbian
Exposition that. millions of people will be denied the pleasure of becoming
the possessors of
World's Fair
Souvenir Qoins
The Official Souvenir
of the Great Exposition
The extraordinary and growing demand for these Coins, and the de
sire on the part of the Directors that equal opportunities may be afforded for
their purchase, have made it necessary to enlarge the channels of distribution,
To relieve themselves of some responsibility, the Directors have invited
THE MERCHANTS
Throughout the Nation to unit' with t: e Banks in placing Columbian Half
Dollars on :ale. This is done that th. masses of. the people, and those
living at remote points, may be afforded the best possible opportunity to
obtain the Coins;
THE FORTUNATE POSSESSORS
of SOUVENIR COINS will be those who are earliest in seizing upon these
new advantages.
$10,000 Was Paid For The First Coin
They are all alike, the issue is limited, and time must enhance their
value. The price is One Dollar each.
HOW TO GET THE COINS:
Go to your nearest merchant or banker, as they are likely to have
them. If you cannot procure them in this way, send direct to us, ordering;
not less than Five Coins, and remitting One Dollar for each Coin ordered.
Send instructions how to ship the Coins and they will be sent free
of expense. Remit by registered letter, or send express or post-office money
order, or bank draft to
