IteinarValile Deal in Dentistry.
A most remarkable story of a deal
in dentistry is going the rounds. A
banker's linn in London the other day
made an investment in teeth which
was highly satisfactory, and in which
tho money flowed the other way. It
seems that an ancient awindlor, who
had cheated them out of some money,
was caught, convicted and sentenced.
While in prison ho wanted a new set
of teeth, those ho was wearing not bp
ing all that could be desired in dealing
w ith prison fare. Tho governor of tho
jail told him that the Government did
not provide false teeth for the prison
ers. Accordingly ho wrote to the
bankers and told them that if they
would provide him with false teeth ho
would give them some valuable infor
mation. They sent him $25, ho got
his teeth, and in return ho sent thorn
information that led to tho finding of
$7500. All in all, it was a good in
vestment. Detroit Free Tress.

The necessity for tree cultnre is
equally imperative with irrigation,
and the arid lands question will never
be satisfactorily settled witbout the
recognition of this principle in its
solution. America can ill afford to
ignore tho experience of other Nations
in this respect, and forestry should
receive equal consideration with irri
gation. It has been estimated that within
historic times some seven millions of
square miles along the ahores of the
Mediterranean, once highly fertile,
have been changed into worthless
deserta, and for nearly two thousand
years the inhabitable portion of the
earth has decreased at the average
rate of 3500 square miles. This has
been produced by tho direct agency of
man, the evil being chiefly duo to
river floods caused almost exclusively
by tho destruction of land protecting
forests.
It is right that America should set
the examplo of reclaiming desert
lands, and thus increase the earth s
capacity for supporting the human
race. Irrigation and treo culture
must go hand ami hand iu thiH work.
Colman's Rural World.
Fnrrr growino Fon rnoFrr.
The best land for frnit growing is a
loam with some gravel in it, but good
drainace is indispensable for success.
Plums and pears will do better on
heavier soils than other fruits. There
is no doubt of the profit of either of
tnese two fruits, but both are difficult
of culture, and skill and extreme care
are necessary to succeed. Both are
liable to diseases and attacks of injuri
ous enemies that must be inoBt care
fully guarded against. Then either"
frnit may pay several times as much
profit as any other common kinds. The
spring is the best time to plant these
fruits, but apples may be planted in
the fall quite as well as in the Bpring.
In choosing varieties it is well to con
sult the nurserymen from whom the
trees are purchased, as they will know
the best kinds for the locality and
soil Otherwise any experienced fruit
grower of the neighborhood may be
consulted. As a rule, it is best to
procure the trees from the nearest
nursery, and thus avoid the risks of
delay in transportation. Pears are
set twenty feet apart, and plums need
about the same space. It has been
found profitable to set out dwarf pears
between the rows of the standard trees,
as they will begin to boar the third
year, and by the time the others be
gin to bear they will have repaid all
the cost of planting, and, under
favorable circumstances, a respecta
ble profit. When the planter has the
experience and skill needed, there is
no more protitablo agricultural enter
prise than fruit growing. New York
Times.
ESSEVTULS IN STRAWBERRY GROWING.
Professor Lszenby, before the Co
lumbus Horticulture Society gave the
following summary of essential points
to be kept in mind :
Tho most profitable varieties for the
commercial grower Hre those not eas
ily influenced by differences iu soil
and climato. Those which succeed
well on wide areas are usually better
than those which have a more local
reputation.
Pistillate varieties, when properly
fertilized, are more productive thaa
the sorts with perfect flowers.
The value of a variety for fertiliz
ing pibtillate flowers does not depend
so much upon the amount as upon the
potency of its pollen.
The flowers of pistillate varieties ore
less liable to bo injured by frost than
the flowers of perfect varieties.
Varieties that are neither very early
nor very late in point of maturity, are
the nioft productive and have the
longest fruitiug season.
As a rule, varieties that have the
most vigorous and healthy foilage are
the least productive, while those with
a weaker growth of foliage and a
greater susceptibility to leaf blight
are usually the more proline.
'Winter protection may be dispensed
with upon well druiued soils, but ap
pears to be a necessity upon heavier
ones.
The leaf blight may bo checked by
using the Bordeaux mixture, beginning
just as soon as the leaves appear, and
continuing the application every few
weeks throughout the season. Col

WINTER SITTINGS.
In the winter time cuttings from
bhruba and small fruits should be
made for eurly spring planting. In
this way trees uud shrubs can be
greatly luereawd iu numbers, and
new, large orchard); can be giveu un
early start, without uny expense other
than the li.iiov required to make the
cuttings and pluut theiu. Currants,
gooei'lu rrics nud ornamental shrubs

The vaiioin nitth ; is adopted by
florists to increase tlienumber of their
shrubs and trees are all simple, such
as the soft wood euttinijsiu the green
hoube in tlid winter and layering in
the summer, Imt tho hardwood propa
gation iu fall or spring is the method
that should he considered at this time
of the year. If the .cuttings are to be
planted out iu tho (.pring they may be
mude uny time thi winter." Where

or spring. Tho cuttings that are
gathered iu the winter should bo tied
in loose bundles, and bo set in damp
sand in a frost proof cellar where they
will keep until needed in the spring.
As soon as tho soil dries out in the
spring they should be planted.
The young shoots of last season
should be selected for these cuttings,
and thoy should be cleft from tho
main bushes so that they will be about
one foot long. These are nearly all
buried in the spring in deep, rich soil,
leaving only four inches of the tips
above the ground. The soil mnst lie
trampled down firmly arouud them.
They will begin to start almost im
mediately, and a young orchard of
trees or shrnbs will soon prove a great
blessing. Not only frnit bearing trees
will snccoed in this way, but nearly
all shade trees. It is probably the
easiest way of starting young trees
that can be devised.
Quince orchards should bo started
every few years if a good crop is ex
pected annually, and there is no easier,
quicker and surer way than selecting
tho cnttings in the winter months,
when there is plenty of time, and then
starting them out early in the spring.
Meanwhile, the land on ' which they
have been started can be planted the
samo as usual for a season or two af
terward. American Cultivator.
hiohkst rHorrrs in hiuhest feeding.
Ten cows were fed a ration begin
ning with eight pounds of grain and
twelve pounds of hay, and gradually
increasing up to as high as nineteen
pounds of grain and twenty-seven
pounds of hay per day and head, and
then gradually decreasing to the or
iginal amount. Throughout this test
at the Pennsylvania Experiment Sta
tion accurate notes were taken of the
amount and cost of the food, the
amount of milk produced by each
animal and its butter value as determ
ined by t he Babcock test.
Perhops tho most striking lesson is
tho demonstration given of tho profit
there is in liberal feeding. The cheap
est ration used cost 18.8 cents per day
and produced bntter valned at 20.C
cents, making a net profit of 7. 7 cents
per day per cow. An increase of 2.9
ents per day per cow in tho cost of
this ration mode the daily value of the
butter 31 cents, and the net profit 9.3
cents per day, or a difference of 1.6
cents per day per cow in favor of tho
more costly ration. In other words,
the farmer who attempted to econo
mize by feeding the cheaper ration,
would, with a herd of twenty-five
cows, save $217 per year on his feed
bills, but would lose $337 worth of
butter that he might have produced
with the more costly ration, so that
his ill-judged attempt at economy
would result in a net loss of $120.
The cheoper ration, moreover, is
what would ordiuarily be considered a
good ration, and the majority of dairy
men would be likely to feel less, rather
than more, yet the results show con
clusively that with such cows as theso
the more expensive ration was really
the morn economical.
A further increase of the cost of the
ration, however, to 25.1 cent per day
gave no further increase in the butter
product, and the net profit was thereby
cut down to 4.9 cent per day, or 1.8
cent less than with the cheapest ration
of the three. In other words, the ex
periments indicate that there is certain
medium ration for each cow wlych will
give the greatest net profit, and that
any attempt to economize by feeding
less than this will result iu a loss,
while, on the other hand, it is possible
to feed a cow too much as well as too
little. Generally, however, there is
much more danger of feeding too lit
tle than too much. New England

HOW TO MAKE AN OVF.t.FT.
"If it were mv privilege to cxnmfno
all the cooks in the city," says Mm.
Borer, "I should first put them to
making omelets, as nothing would be
tray more quickly tho skill or ignor
ance of a cook than the handling of
the breakfast omelet." And then she
explains how it should bo made.
Have an omelet pan about eight in
ches in diameter one made from sheet
iron preferable. Tho bottom should
be as smooth as glass. If not, put into
it a teaspoonful of salt, aud then with
a piece of brown paper scour it thor
oughly. Do not wash it after, simply
turn the salt out and put in a piece of
butter tho sizo of a walnut. Break
four to six eggs into a bowl, and with
a fork give twelve to fifteen vigorous
beats, not enough to make tho mixtnro
light, but to thoroughly mixthewhito
and tho yolks of tho eggs. I5eting
either together or separately robs ergs
of their flavor, and also makes small
air cells, which expand as tho pan is
heated and cool as tho omelet is turned
.over for tho table, thus making a heavy
rather than a light and tender one.
Do not add salt or pepper to tho ome
let until it is nearly done. Salt
toughens the eggs. Add one teaspoon
ful of boiling water to each egg as soon
as they are beaten. Put in a piece of
butter the size of a hickory nnt. Now
put tho frying pun over tho fire, hav
ing already placed iu it a piece of but
ler tne size oi a walnut, and as soon
as it is melted, not brown, pour in tho
eggs, riace over a quick fire, shako
as soon as the omelet begins to have a
set appearance : with a limber knifo
lift the eggs, allowing the moro liquid
part to go underneath, thus forming
layers, as it were, being very careful
not to tear the omelet, or it will havo
the appearance of scrambled eggs.
Now sprinkle the omelet with salt aud
pepper, and continue lifting until the
whole has been put in a lellylike con
dition. If the pan is perfectly smooth
the omelet Will not stick. When done
and set, not hard, slip a knife uuder
the omelet that part next the handle
of the pan roll it over, then turn
gently on to a heated dish ; serve
once. It is better that you should
wait five minutes for your omelet than
that your omelet should wait one min
ute for yon.
You will notice I have nsed water in
preierence 10 mutt. muk contains a
small amount of cheese, toughens in
cooking and spoils the omelet. Neither
should you use thickening of any kind
cornstarch or flour. Simply take
the egg ami water and you will have a
lender, delicious omelet. One more
caution, the omelet should not be
dark brown, as it destroys the flavor
of the egg.

Alcohol affects the system in such a va
riety ot ways, says an exchange, perverts
the functions of so many orguus, invades
and corrodes fo muny tissues, that tho phy
sician Is often puzzled as to whut part of the
organism needs treatment llrst. The poison
produces chronlo inflammation of the
stomach, It gradually inflames the liver, and,
In fnct, strangles it like an iron hand ; it in
jures the heart, it affects the kidneys, it does
harm to the lungs, it produoes neurasthenia,
delirium tremens, insanity, and epilepsy by
Its influence upon the nervous system ; it at
tacks the spinal cord and causes pseudo
ataxta. Hometimes the physicians treat one
of these conditions in a patient, and some
times many. But the worst condition is thnt
of the vie or disease Itself. He may treat
and relieve to auertain extent ttie disorders
just enumerated, but the habit offers terrible
difficulties to overcome In order to conquer
it. How shall the habit be cured? For
many decades this complex question him
commanded the attention not only of phy
sicians, but of lavmen, lawyers, clergymen
and statesmen. Kither tbo desire for alcohol

Bi-rntl Making Machines.
In tho manufacturo of the bread-
miiking machines of tho last few years
tho great object has been to obviate.
as far as possible, tho handling of tho
ibmgh. J ho materials themselves,
having a sort of life imparled to them
iu the process of fermentation, requiro
entirely different treatment from that
to which other materials are subjected,
whilo necessitating machinery of
powerful construction to obtain
thorough nud rapid mixing and tho
stretching and folding motions essen
tial to tho iuereaso in elasticity of tho
dough and tho development of tho
gluten iu the flour. An improved
machine possessing all those features
bus been constructed. Its various
movement aro controlled by tho turn
of a hand wheel. In the working of
tho mixers tjio materials aro brought
from each of tho four corners of the
receiving trough to tho centre of the
machine, incorporating tho Hour aud
liquor thoroughly by evenly intermix
ing them, but without rubbing them
against the sido of the trough. Tho
miichiuo boa two speeds one for
breaking tho spougo and for quickly
mixing tho materials, and tho other
for the kneading operation. The gear
ing for producing these speeds is actu
ated by means of a hand-wheel, which
acts quite independently, without
stopping tho machine. Tho arms of
Hie machine upon one side are made
to act in tho opposite dircctiou to
those upon the other aide, or to work
in tho same direction by tho simple
movement of a hand lever. Tho trough
can bo tilted while tho beaters aro
either in motion or at rest. All the
shnfts revolve iu split gun-metal bear
ings, and tho kneading arms are pro
vided with couo bearings of special
construction. The gearing and work
ing parts arc carefully covered so as to
prevent any datigor of accident while
