A crow had a next in the woods just

writeaE. a OillMft. He would walk
nlotiR pickiuK up insects or something
rii.'l't and left, often havitifr to make
quite an effort to swallow them. A few
minutes, and he spread his wings for
home and the squawing of his mate
shown! that she waa Wing fed. Then
liack he came for more. How many
trips he made per ilay I do not know,
but a good mauy. 1 often tried to see
what ho was picking np, and he allowed
me to come within three rods; but he
was so quick I couldn't see and my big,
Hhiny ti'lrscoK was just as bad as a gun
in his opinion ; he started for the
woods tho moment he saw it coming.
Thus lie worked st eadily day after day,

FOOD FOB POfliTBT.
The most expensive of all food we
find to bo barley, an unturel. Not
only is a considerable proportion
thrown about and wasted bnt much
that is swallowed is never digested,
We thereforo give it as a change and
an indulgence, and by no means as the
Maple of their food. Indian meal is
the bent staple, according to our ex
perience. It is well scalded, that the
swelling may lie done before eating,
iiiKtead of after, thus avoiding various
mnlndiea and perils from overeating.
Broken rice, well boiled, is good to a
certain extent.
Mnlt dust is a valuable resource.
The demand is becoming so great that
probably it will soon cease to be a
cheap food ; bnt while it remains so it
is a real boon both to the fowls and their
owners. They will eat almost any
thing that is sprinkled with malt dust,
and a nix-shillings sack of it goes a
long way. A certain proportion of
green food, and also of animal food, ia
indixpetiHable. Lettuce leaves, turnip
tops, cabbage leaves, celery, should be
thrown to them. They ahonld have
access to gras, to pick seeds and in
sects; and it is well to put a fresh sod
iuto the poultry yard whenever such a
Valuable thing may be spared,
All the worms and insects that come
in the gardener's way should be pre
sented to them ; and when insects are
scarce scrnps of raw meat minced as
fine as pin's heads should be given.
Add finely chopped eggs for infant
clicks find I think tho bill of fare is
complete. As for the pepper corn,
which old wives rocouimeud as' the first
thing to bo swallowed, we reprobate
tho notion as we should in the case of
any other newix.rn creature. In fact,
it irritates the crop very mischiev
ously if it gives out its savor, and if it
does not dissolve it ia nothing.

v mrii is rns mist cow?
Every onco iu a whilo some dairy
liisn nt:isrks that he doea not need a
test to tell him hieh are the best
dairy cows; he can tell by looking at
them. Ho pint sella the fat ones aud
keeps tho thin ones. Ignite often this
is tho standard by which oows are
judged : the thiuuerthey are when giv
ing milk the bi tter dai ry oows they are
considered. There is, of course, some
reason iu this. We know that a cow
that uses her food to put fiekh on her
back, instead of putting luilk and fat
into tho pail, is not the most profit
able co for the dairy. Hut to jump
to the conclusion that because cow
is poor iu flesh she must of necessity
Im a good dairy cow is draaiug a con
clusion that is not justified by facts.
There are some beef cows that will
eat a good ration every day and keep
in juet fairly good condition, while
there arc others in the aame herd that
on the same feed keep their ribs
and bscks nicely covered with flesh.
The lutter are good feeders aud the
for.ner poor feeders. Tho latter have
tho natual ability to make better use
of th'-ir feed than tho former; they
have feeding quality.
It is just the sa i n ii with dairy cows,
some are good feeders and some are
poor feeders. Home keep thin iu flesh
beciiitho they are using the greater
part of their food to make milk and
fat while others stay iu poor flesh sim
ply because thiy have not the natural
feeding quidity to assimilate aud digest
flu-ir food. It is folly to judge of the
dniry qualities of a cow by the amount
of flesh hhu curries. There is but one
iifcurnte wuy to determine the value
of a cow for tli) dairy, aud thut is to
iiHcirtiin tho uiimbe'r of pounds of
butter fat rhe yields iu year from a
given ntuot'.iit of feed.
The cow that yields tho greatest
amount of butter fat per year for the
least cost per po-ind is the most valu
able cow for the dairyman, and it
does uot matter whi ther she kei-;is fut
euuiifih for the butcher or so thiutliHt
her ribs can lm counted. It does not
mutter whether she weighs tivo hun
dred pounds or a ton; whether she
has tho beef form or the sn-.-allc d duirv
form; whether she is black or white,
fipotted or fawn colored, red or brin
dled. Feiformanee is tho oulv reliable
btandard. Kooky Mountain Uusbaud-

THK BEST BRANS,
C. E. Htinn, of Oeneva, N. Y., writ
ing in Garden and Forest, says :
"Few vegetables have been hybrid
ired or selected with greater care than
tho bean, snd varieties suitable for
several purjioses have been developed,
until little improvement now seems
possible. Among snapbeans, the new
yellow-podded wax varieties, which
are almost cylindrical in shnpe, solid
yet tender, and of tho finest fibre and
flavor, are quite superior to the old
time flat, green-podded and stringy
varieties. Among the best varieties
are Wardwell's Kidney Wax, Yoscmite
Mammoth Wbx, Golden Wax and Per
fection. Of shell beans, the best are
Dwarf Horticultural ; Golden Cluster,
which is very productive and bears flat
beans about two-thirds aa largo as
Henderson's Bush Sieva, meaty and
well flavored ; Hemisphere, a bean al
most round, but solid and of extra
quality, half of it being light brown in
color, splashed with red. This color
would detract from its value as a mar
ket variety, but in tho processof cook
ing the color to a great extent disap
pears, so that it is one of tho very best
for the kitchen garden. On the sta
tion grounds, as the main experiment
crop for the past four years, a pure
white bean has been grown which has
proved of extra quality and produc
tiveness. It is very hardy and is proof
thus far against tho anthracuose, so
prevalent throughout this section. It
has been called the Hatt bean, after its
originator, but I am not aware that it
has been offered for sale under any
name, although it should be more
generally known.
"The search and selection necessary
for a trne Dwarf Lima bean has been
successful, and it would now seem
hardly necessary to grow the pole Lima
bean. Tho latter come to maturity a
trifle earlier than the bush type when
both are planted together, it is trne,
but the dwarf varieties may bo started
earlier, either in common beds or in
inverted sods, or iu pots in the kitchen
or greenhouse. When planted out
they can be protected from early or
late frosts with ease so that the season
of bearing can be lengthenod out by
the same method. Cheap cloth pro
tection or wide boards can be used
against frost. Two distinct types of
these beana are now offered by seeds.
men, Burpee's Bush Lima, with large
flat pods, well filled with beans, and
resembling tho old garden Lima, and
Dreer's or Kuinerly's Dwarf Lima,
with shorter pods and beans resembling
in shape Dreer's Improved Lima.
Either of these can be grown in the
kitchen garden, and for market they
will certainly crowd out the climbing
varieties, since mauy more can be
planted on tbe same area and no ex
pense is necessary for polos."
FABM AND GARDEN NOTES.
For chapped or scratched toats ap
ply cream or fresh butter.
Give the colt some nice, bright oats,
where it can get at them handy.
The colt should have a good yard,
lot or pasture to feed and exercise in.
It is not necessarily true that "skim
milk calves make pot-bellied ear
suckers."
If you raise sheep for wool, breed
merinos; if for mutton, broed the
heavy tyie.
Market only tho best of your pro
duce aud put it up in the most attrac
tive manner.
Pet the colt, so it will learn to know
that you do not mean to hurt it. Do
not scare nor tease it
Do not skim-milk your calves too
soou. Let them have some new milk
for at least two weeks.
A cow abused will not do her best.
To make yon money each cow should
be allowed to do her best.
A nervous cow will "give down"
milk better if in a quiet place securely
fastened and milked very gently.
" Early shearing is very desirable. It
relieves tho sheep of ticks and enables
the owner to take precautions against
scab.
Hslter break the colt whilo young,
so that it will stand quietly tied. If
you have beeu kind to it, it will soon
learn to lead.
It requires grain to make pork or

rack your fruit honestly if you want
to succeed. When you think you have
secured a good customer dou't palm
off an inferior article on him. If you
do you are sure to lose him.
In bnyiug or exchanging sheep give
a thorough examination for scabs,
ticks, lice and foot rot before turning
them into tho flock, or you may be
getting more than you knew of.

SO KOUaiSRMENT IS DRINK.
"There is nothing in alcohol." aava Tie.
Richardson, "that can make any vital struc
ture of tbe body."
Aleonol, says rrofessor Miller, "Is no
food In any sense of tbe term. It is not a
flesh-former, because it contains no nitrogen.
It is not a heat-giver, as exDeriment and ex
perience have proved. It is not a bone-maker,
as It contains none of the mineral salts which
go to form the bones, teeth, or hair. And
lastly, it is not a watur-food, since alcohol
contains no water. It is perfei-tly clear, there
fore, that alcohol cannot help in any way to
build up the tUsuesof the body."
Alcohol," says Dr. Baer. of llcrlin. "eon-
tains neither albumen nor fat. nor auv other
siilwtance either present in theaninmforgau
ism or arising by chemical changes iu the
iKiov. nun replacing a part of the same, '
"We cannot lieueve, says rrofessor Leh
man, "that alcohol belongs' to the class of
substances cnpalile of contributing towards
wie niniuicnsu-o oi tlie vital timet ions ;" and
1'riifcssor Moleschoot, of Erlangeu, assures
us that "alcohol does not effect suv dlrei-t
restitution, nor deserve the name of an ali
mentary principle."
It is clear, then, that persons who drink
beer or any other alcoholic drink for its
nourishment, or us a food to "build them
up'1 make a great mistake. There is no food
or nourishment in it. It makes the drinker
feel better for a few minutes, aud then leaves
him with a reaction which makes him feel
worse than liefore, and tnis all drinkers, even
the most moderate, will acknowledge, it they
are honest and if they will watch their own
teelinits carefully. Alcohol is not a food.

The Puke lie Teragna's Revenge.
A dark, handsome gentleman, with
tride-whiskers and a foreign air, stepped
Into the. telegraph office on tho Co
lumbian Fair grounds at Chicago, nud
asked courteously j
"Ia this the oflloo of tho telegraph,
enor T"
"It ain't anything- else," carelessly
replied tho operator, ono of those
choice essences of Chicago whoso otily
perfume is crudity.
"I worild send a telegram," said the
stranger, quietly.
"Would you?" drawled tho op
erator; "well, why don't you Bend it ?"
The visitor's heavy eyebrows raised,
but ho said quietly: "How many ol
tho words have I permit to aend foi
twenty-five of tho cents?"
"Ten," snapped tho operator,
shortly.
"Only bo few as ten?" asked tho
stranger. "They gave twelve to twenty
abroad, aenor."
"Ten words for a' quarter, or she
don't go," snarled the operator. "How
much do yon want for twenty-flvo
cents?"
The visitor's dark eyes gleamed dan
gerously and his firm lips closed.
"I send bnt ten of tho words for
that nuvnev, then scnor?"
"Yes." "
"And tho name, docs it go free,
aenor?''
"yes."
A strange eniilo chased itself around
tho corners of tho haughty mouth, nud
picking tip a pen the Btranger quietly
wrote :

Farmer Tenuis linker.
A certain baker in business in a
small town in Normandy obtained his
supply of butter from a farmer in tho
neighborhood. One dey ho discovered
that the pats, which were supposed to
weigu three pounds each, were not
to the standard, and further examina
tion revealed a steady diminution in
the daily provision. At last the baker
lodged a formal complaint against tho
farmer, and tho affair was brought lie
fore the local court.
"Have you scales?" inquired the
magistrate.
"Yes, Monsieur lo Juge," was the
reply.
"And have yon any weights?" con
tinued the Judge. An answer this
time in tho negative was as promptly
given.
"But how did yon manage to weigh
your muter? askeu the magistrate.
Then the farmer related that evci
since the baker had taken his butter he
had returned the compliment by buy
mg his bread. The baker supplied
uini witn tnreo-pouna loaves, anil h
liad used them as weights for his but
ter. "It is his fault, not mine, if the
weight is not correct," added the
farmer, who was speedily acquitted
ami lets tno court lu triumph with an
escort of friends and admirers. Bince
this trial tlie farmer is said to have
been supplied with more than his duo
provision of bread ; but he has taken
good care not to fall into the opposite
error, nnd the baker has now his three
pound pats of butter, full weight, but
not ou ounce more. London Tele

None but Royal
Baking Powder is absolutely pure. No other
equals it, or approaches it in leavening;
strength, purity, or wholesomcncss. (See
U. S. Gov't Reports.) No other is made
from cream of tartar specially refined for it
and chemically pure. No other makes such
light, sweet, finely-flavored, and wholesome
food. No other will maintain its strength
without loss until used, or will make bread
or cake that will keep fresh so long, or that
can be eaten hot with impunity, even by
dyspeptics. No other is so economical.
