The feeding of a cow aoon to ealvo is an important matter as regarda tho welfare of the animnl, and by neglect or mistake many cows are injured when in this condition. It ia safe to avoid all grain feeding for at least one month beforo the calf ia expected, but Buy kind of vegetables or roots, may bo given with safety and advantage. Tho principle on which stich cows are to be fed is that the bowels should be kept in a free condition, and all food that may nnduly stimulate tho system is to be avoided. After the calf ap pears, stronger food is given gradually luriug two or three weeka following. Tho cow may bo milked a few hours after tho calf is born. It is to be kept from sucking, which is generally ad visable, but the milking must depend wholly on the condition of the cow. Some copious milkers may need milk ing before tb calf comes. Now York Times. A r-OINT IN BITTER MAKIXCI. The readings of the Babcock test at Chicago, in the dairy test, and the actual results of the churn, indicate at the close of sixty-five days that, had it been possible to make separators and churns and other things to work ro perfection, the Jerseys would have hndniuely-eight, the Guernseys ninety two, tho Shorthorns, ninety-three pounds each more butter to their credit, and this with the most perfect mechanism ever devised in butter making and controlled by the best ex perts obtainable. Now if with separa tors and best churns, over ninety pounds of butter is lost in about 2300 ponnds, what ia the loss in the usual farm house, where bntter is being made in primitive ways, so to speak? This shows a loss of about one pound of butter in forty of original fat, while ordinary making shows about one pound in four is lost between pan and butter crock; or at least ten times more. Prairie Farmer. HOUSE NOTES. Bran makes more bone than oats. Beauty and speed combined will al ways sell. Breed in to fit the type and out to strengthen tho constitution. Horses kindly treated anl well groomed require less feed than those which are not well cared for. The horse breeder should know how to handle his horse intelligently, treat it humanely and feed it scientifically. The horse is a dainty feeder and will eat more heartily and with better relish if the food is not kept con stantly beforo them. When German coach horses are crossed, even upon common mares, the colts produced are remarkable for size, bono and action. Young horses for roadsters and driv ing purposes need to be fed properly and upon tho grain foods adapted to their needs and future development. Every farmer should include a colt ol two among his live Btock. If they aro the proper kind, they will pay better thun almost any other kind of stock. Turn the colts out every day to ex ercise at will in a paddock. If kept in tho stall their spirits and health sutler and they are apt to form bad habits. In order to bring a good price young trotters must be tiained. If the breeder cannot afford to do this he can sometimes arrange with a trainer for development on "shares." If horse meat could be made popu lar as an article of diet, it would be a boon to those people who have been foolish enough to breed inferior horses which are not suitable for road or Iraught purposes. Tho produce of pacing dams train more easily and develop more rapidly than animals in which that element is wanting, and the explanation of this is that the fast pace is older than the fast trot and the instinct more firmly fixed. Moderate exercise io liflit cart and on a smooth road or track during tho coming winter is less apt to prove in jurious to last spring's foals than is the old-fubhioned practice of turning them out together iu rough or icy yard, when more or less injury is sure to re sult from their play. New York World. FARM Bl'ILDlNGS. answer to the inquiry of In answer to the inquiry of "C. H.," Clinton Couuty, Ohio, regarding thj best uud proper location for bnild ings on a farm that lies wholly on one side of the road, I would say that where at all practical, it is by fur best to pluee them near the roadside, for potent reabous. It is dcahuble particularly for so- I cial intercourse, as your neighbors I ond friends are much more apt to call i.ua liuicli better opportunity is afTord- ed in sending to town for mails or . groceries when inexpedient tn go yourself and a neighbor parses by. It might be urym-.d that trumps are let-s liiiUo to trouble when such liuild I iug are further back, but experience I teaches us that such is not the case, as sequent pahbers-by aio a menace to Mich vihiturs aud they seldom make their culls disrespectful. We are awurc that if a farm bo quite rectau- gular, with a narrow frori lo the road, . it might bo less convenient to build adjacent to tho roadside than if tho long side lay there, yet wo would' prefer to build there if sito was satis factory, and if possible let our fields reach tho full length of tho farm, if not too Urge. Of course there are farms where it is perfectly impracticable to build npon the roadside, other than for a mere residence. Tho writer was raised on just such a farm where tho buildings are ahnost iu the center. This made it very handy for farm pur poses, in hauling and passing to and from work. Still there was a certain amount of social freedom that was alwi.ys absent, which I find now living by the roadside. In fact, I would rather put up with many inconven iences than to bo moved back from the road, especially if a macadamized one ran besides my farm, for then, with my buildings on it it would be handy at any season of the year to go to town or to market. I think it has a better effect on one's children to bo thrown into the pos session of certain freedom and privi leges that remoteness from the high way cannot afford them. Mostly our schoolhouses are situated along tho road, consequently our children find less inconvenienco in attending school. As a rule, onr highways pass some well located spot that will prove a satisfac tory location for our buildings, which w ill prove an incentive to us to im prove their surroundings much more than if set too far back from the road. Yes, by all means C. H., build upon the roadside or sufficiently close to bo practically convenient to it. Ohio Farmer. IVltXTRV NOTES. Grease of any kind is a preventive of scabby legs. It is best to have tho roosts low and all on one level. Don't keep too largo a flock for the accommodations you offer. Too much food is as bad as too little for diminishing the egg supply. Active breeds require more grain than those which take on fat readily. All grain should be scattered so that the hens are compelled to search' for it. Cut bones are well worth what they, cost, and every farmer should own a cutter. If you expect to make money out of your poultry you must give it rational treatment. Bronzo turkeys are a cross between the pnre American gobbler and a do mestic tnrkey. Mixed lots in the chicken market are generally purchased at the price, tho poorest aro Worth. Give all tho fowls a warm feed each day, if possible, and avoid feeding any musty or spoiled food. A good way to feed clover to poultry is to rnu it through a cutting box and then soak it over night. By raising most of your roots and vegetables the cost of keeping poultry will be greatly diminished. ' Light BrahmAs are tho largest of the Brahma family. They are good birds where meat is desired. Thd layers and tne fattening fowls require different systems of feeding, aud should be kept separate. Most peoplo are uuawnre that con sumption is one of the many diseases to which poultry aro subject. Inbreeding will improve the appear ance of the birds, but if carried to far the health of the chickens will suffer. A three -year-old gobbler is generally esteemed better than a two year-old one for the raising of healthy chicks. The best laying hens are the most active. Keeping food constantly be fore them will spoil the best flock of layers. ' Grass iu runs is possible only when they are suflieieutly largo to allow each hen from eighty to 100 square feet of space. You may bo too far from market to pay for raising poultry to send thither, but why not raiso a little for your own family? Why uot feed your ponltry a littlo ensilage? Wbnt is good for milk pro duction should also be good for egg production. Fowls are supposed to have been in troduced into Europe from Persia.

Then stir iu half a pint of good vinegar and the dressing is ready for use. It gives a bright, clean surface, and makes tho shoes look almost like new.

The art of frying an onion ho that it will Vie delicate and crisp is not generally understood. Thero is but one way to fry this- vegetable which will give tho right result that is, to cut it in slices and soak then iu milk for at least ten minutes. Then dip tho slices in flour and immerse them in boiling fat, hot enough to brown in stantly a bit of bread thrwn in. You cannot keep the onion iu si iocs, so it is not worth while to try to do so. After they havo fried for six or seven minutes they may be lifted np with a skimmer on to brown paper and will bo found firm and thoroughly deli cious. Cooked in this way they may bo served as a garnish to a daintily broiled beefsteak or to a dish of fried chops or beof crcquettes. There is no way of frying an onion in a pan with a little butler, as commonly recom mended in coo' books, which will pro duce a satisfactory result. The onion softens and absorbs tho butter, owing to the natural law of capilliary attrac tion, and the result ia that the butter and ouion becomo a dark and greasy mass. American Cultivator. Arri.u JELLY. Apple jelly is littlo regarded be cause tho apple is so conmiou. Never theless it ia ono of our most excellent fruit jellies, and it is a ttandnrd de pendence of the French cook in tho preparation of fruit pies and various other desserts, Tho French make many delicious compotes of apples, Tho difference between a compote and a preserve should bo carefully noted. A conipoto is a preparation of fruit put up for immediate use, as we put up cranberries or stew apples; a pre serve is a preparation of fruit intended to be used at Borne distant time, and may usually bo kept a twelvemonth or longer. Apple preserves are an ab surdity, ns apples are found in market all tho year round, except in the be ginning of summer, when other fruits aro in abundance. Apple jelly is best prepared from time to time as it is needed, though there is no objection to having two woeka' supplies iu the house for fruit pies and general use. A compotij should not bo mado more thau a day or two at tho furthest be fore it is to be served. Tho most familiar American compote, moulded cranberries, is considered to bo in its primo condition tho day after it is made. For an apple jelly select a dozen firm, well flavored apples. Fall pip pins make an excellent jelly, but almost any well flavored, slightly tart apple will do for this purpose. Do not peel the apples, but.cut them into quarters, leaving the core in, but removing any wormy specks. Partially decayed ap ples are uulit for the purpose. Pour a piut of cold water over them and slice in half a lemon. Put thorn in a porcelain-lined kettle to boil. Let them cook for twenty minutes, and then strain them through a fine sieve or a coarse cloth. Add sugar in the proportion of a pound to every pint of juice. Let tho sugar and apple juice boil together for twenty minutes. Then test the mixture, and as soon as it forms a jelly pour it into cups. A layer of this jelly spread over an apple meringue pie beforo the meringue is put on is a great improvement, and most French cooks use such a layer in all their fruit pies, both next to the crust and over the fruit, so that the fruit is incased in the apple jelly. The reason for this is that the apple ia au inexpensive, convenient article to use, aud possesses the ability to take to itself the flavor of other fruits, like peaches, pineapples aud greengages. A most delicious applo meringue pio is mado of apple jelly strongly tinc tured with lemon juico and covered with a meringue flavored with lemon. For the purpose of economy a nice applesauce, strained as it should be, aud with a layer of apple jelly over it and then the layer of meringue is more often used. New York Tribune. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. To clean brass lamp-burners aud make them good us new, boil ia salted vinegar. To prevent lamp globes from being broken by drafts or accidental sprink lings put on the stove in cold water and let slowly coine to a boil. To clean rust or other stains from tho inside of decanters, cruets, or other slender necked gloss vessels slice a potato and use as you would shot grains. To slide pies with ease give the plate a few careful "Hops" when you first take it from the oven and, unless the juice has cooked over tho edge, it will loosen at once. To boil dumplings iu tho old-fash-ioued way without a steamer invert a saucer in the bottom of kettle and, just beforo the water comes to a boil, drop them in around it. To beat eggs successfully they should first be thoroughly chilled. In the summer time they should be immersed in ice water or placed iu tho refrig erator a few moments before using. Take a basket of eggs and dip in a kettle of water, putting them in and out again as quickly as possible, threo times in succession. They will keep au entire season preserved iu this way. If the inside of your tea or coffee pot is black, fill it with water aud put iu a piece of hard suup. Set it on the stove and let it boil half au hour or one hour. It will be as bright as new.

Physiologists and lovers of athletics nmy be interested in recent experi ments and researches of a French ar tillery captain, M. do Itaoul, who, some fifteen yeara ago, began to try and find ont the most economical and least trying way of walking. There aro many manners of walking, some of which are much devoid of grace (the average Englishwoman's is a very (rood example), but it may bo sup posed that, as far aa eflloiotiey ia con cerned ono must be bettor than tho others. M. do Jlaoul has come to tho conclusion that, ns far as fast walking is concerned, tho bust method is that which ho calls inarche enflcxion. Tho principle is t.i run without leaping, to raise tho body above the ground as littlo aa possible, to keep tho knees bent, tho upper part of tho body in clined forward, so that practically yon re always running after your centre Df gravity. The feet must be raised .inly very slightly. M. do Raoti), who has now some years of experience, wys that ho can tako any man between twenty and sixty and teach him to run la long as his legs can carry him with out getting out of breath. Homo men tan, on the very first trial of the method, run seven or eight mileswith jut stopping, w hile, with the ordinnry tactics, they could uot have run over one mile. The first kilc meter (a kilo meter is five-eighths of a mile) is usually covered iu seven minutes and l ipiartcr, the second in six minutes, md the third in five minutes and forty dvo seconds. Au interesting feature of M. do Rnoul's researches ia that even after a long run, according to his method, a stiff walk is no trouble tt all ; the muscles which work in both lases do not belong to tho same set, nd while ono exercise is performed tho muscles which minister to tho Jthcr rest.
