Drying Cat rotator. It is very important that potato sets rut for seed should be thoroughly dried on their surface beforo planting. If put in the ground while moist they will quickly rot. It is quite common to sprinkle gypsum or land plaster on the cut surface, under the idea that the plaster being dry will absorb the pieces of the potato as they exude. In stead of this, the gypsum only pauses the cut sin face to blacken and be rather more likelv to decay thuu be fore. Fine powdered lime is much better for this purpose. It absorbs water until it takes in all it ran hold. Iu early plnutiug lime is especially useful, for it helps to dry the moist soil; and thus prevents the potatoes from rotting iu the hill. Intensive Farming In Kansas. Iu the introductory to the report of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture Secretary Coburn says: "Kansas farmers are learning year by year that their busiuess, if profitable, must be so conducted that it is not the mere playing of a game of chauco with the weather or with a single crop; that a somewhat diversified, aud yet not too scattering agriculture and a studying of aud adaptation to climatic condi tions, the demands aud the markets are essential (not more, perhaps, but as much) iu Kansas as elsewhere. Those who most fully recognize these conditions and most intelligently re spond to their inexorable requirements are realizing a fair or large prosper ity. Others who persistently defy or deny them are ready to declare that farming is no longer a source of profit, that farmers are slaves of, those in other pursuits, aud that the times are politically, financially and morally out of joint. Although uo vocation is all pleasure or all profit, tho men who conduct the business of farming with the same energy and skill as the suc cesful merchant or professional man will reap the same and, as a rule, a greater and more certuiu measure of reward; the time has pos ed, however, if it ever existed, wfieu fortunes were made by unsullied owners of farms, large or small, anywhere. Convincing proof of either proposition can be found in almost auy one ot the 105 counties in Kansas. Muscle, to win, must be lubricated with brains." Hearing Calves. On tho subject of calves Professor Haeckcr says: "We rear about thirty calves each winter on separator skim milk, and find no difficulty iu growiug them fine and thrifty. The calf is al lowed to suck once; it is then re moved and one feeding period al lowed to pass without feeding it auy milk; this is done so the calf will drink without the finger. Tbe first week itrcceives a light ration of whole milk fresh from the cow; the second week it gets half whole milk and half skim milk; the third week aud uutil it is weaned it receives skim milk, a spoonful of ground flax and hay. We feed no grain to calves intondod for the dairy, other than the ground flax meal. By flax meal we do not mean oil meal or oil cake, but the ground flax, containing all the oil there is in the flax seed. We used to feed ground oats or ground barley to calves, but found that many of them acquired tho habit of laying on flesh, which is a permanent injury to a dairy calf. The quantity of ground flax used daily varies frc m a teaspoonf ul to a table spoonful iu each mess of milk, ac cording to the size of the digesting capacity of 'the calves. The flax meul is scalded as is usually done with flax seed, but the meal, if dry, is stirred 'into the milk just before feeding. When the calf is young great care should be taken to always feed the same quantity, aud at a temperature of at least niuety degrees Fahreuheit. After the calf is a few weeks old the skim milk and flax meal may be grad ually increased. Scours are generally caused by overfeeding, or by milk fed when cool. From four to six pints of milk is a fair ration for a calf the first week; feed twice a day and keep it comfortable an J ch-au, and feed 'rjiu a clean tin pail."--Stockman aud Farmer. I'oultry Moles. Feed a variety. Give breakfast at 0. Exercise is an egg tonic. Hens will not lay if too fut. Milk is a complete egg food. The starved hen is worthless. Feed the mash warm not hot. Underfed hens are poor layers. The morning mash is imperative. Let breakfast be only half a meal. Overcrowded flocks give few eggs. Cold quarters check egg production. Eggs sell better when sent to market in regular cases. The laying Leu consumes more food than one not laying. The early pullets are the profitable winter egg producers. Ten hens with one male make about the proper proportion. Ten weeks from shell to market is the time allotted a chick. Keep cabbages hanging iu the house vithin reach of the fowls. Egg shells ground to a powder make a good addition to the mash. Ten fl .eks, each consisting of ten hens, ure enough for an acre. Scatter the grain at noon among Jitter, so the fowls must exercise, Boiled wheat is a food much relished. Feed night meal au hour before dusk. Troper feeding means health aud profit. Good stock almost always finds quick aale. Be very careful to keep the feed troughs cleau. Beaus are good feed because they are nitrogenous. Undulating land is better for the growth of crops thau a level soil. Greeu bone ia a valuable food for growing chicks and matured fowls. Grouud oats, coruiueal aud brau tonstituto proper foods for poultry. Filthy quarters produce aickuess, aud sick hens will not produce eggs. Steeped clover, mixed with the morniug hash, is a great egg pro ducer. Teu hens iu a house 10x10 feet are enough. The yard should be at least ten times as large as the floor of the house. Ou the averago, perhaps it costs us about $1 a head to feed our poultry for a year; thereforo the heu has to lay about 100 eggs to pay for her keeping. It is only after that that the clear profits come iu. HORSES KILLED FOR HOC FEED. Effects of Droughts In California S'i.OOO, OOO Worth or Live Stork Imperilled. The growers of live stock in Cen tral aud Southern California aro iu a panio. Hay has gone up to $'10 per ton, aud the continued drought aud the frequent hot northers have ruiued the prospects for feed in the future. Cat tle and sheep men aro hustling their stock out of the country as fast as the railroads cuu carry it. They have tried to get permission from the Gov ernment to pasture it this summer on the Government reservations, but could only get permission to drive it ooross them. They have applied to Nevada for help, and Nevada has re plied that she has no more thau she needs for her owu stock, but has flu ally decided that stock may be shipped across the State. The cattle quarantine agaiust the southern part of the State has been sufficiently modified to permit the re moval of stock from the drought stricken sections, and tho overland roads have consented to make half rates for stock sent East for pastur age. The authorities of Utah, Ne braska and Wyoming have agreed to allow shipments into their territory of stock that has boeu properly inspected. Tho value of tho imperiled stock is in the neighborhood of $2,000,000, Muuy buyers from Utah, New Mexiso, Nevada, Texas and Northern Califor nia are visiting the drought-stricken districts aud picking up bargains, Ono herd of 5000 head of cattle, re quiring fifteen trains of eighteen cars each has already been shippod East, and the railroad authorities made arrangements to send out at once sixty trains of eightoeu cars, each of whish will carry about 20,000 head of cattlo to points east of Nevada. In all not less thau 100,000 head will be seut out of the State. One big shipment of 18,500 sheep is on its way East in fivo trains of thirty-seven cars each. Another shipment of 15,000 sheep has beeu sold iu Chicago and is on its way there. Nearly 100,000 sheep will probably be sent East during the next month. Cattle and sheep cars are be ing collected and hurried here from all parts of the West. One firm, which controls large tracts of pasture land, is shipping 22,000 head of sheep to New Mexico and is sending droves of cattle to Northern California and to Texas. A member of this firm said: "We shall not leave a hoof on our rauch. Everything, cattle, sheep and horses, has got to go. There is uo feed for the stock." Those having large bands of horses will suffer heavily, as the animals are not sufficiently valuable to warrant much effort in saving them. A good mauy raisers of hogs are buying up all the horses they can get at from $1 to 82-50 per head for hog feed. The horse is token to the field, killed, its hide stripped oil", and. its carcass left to the hogs, which soon leave nothing but a pile of bones. One hog dealer iu Santa Barbara County has bought 250 head of horses which he will use solely for hog feed. Several firms are buying up horses for the manu facture of fertilizers. A few who own blooded stock are sending it out of the country for pasturage. The Canalman. A canalman, unless there happens to be a member of his family who can help him, hires a man called "the hand." The men who run the boats come from various positions iu life to bocome canalmcn. Some have been farmers, who own funns along or near the canal, and not a few have been born aud lived all their lives on a canal boat. Perhaps one of the most unusual cases is that of a well-educnt-ed man who was formerly a Methodist minister, but is now, and has been for several years, living with his family on one of these bouts and driving mules for a living. The majority, however, are rough and iguoraut, and the proverbial swearing is to be heard in its most re pulsive forms. One notices frequent ly a lame or crippled man in charge of a boat, since this is one of the few positions in which a inaimod person is able to earn a livelihood. A canal man's family, if he has one, lives with him ou the boat during the open sea son, and the rest of the year aome live on little plots of grouud, often too small to bo called farms, or perhaps they may live in one of the larger towns nearby.

Drluk and Family Life. Viewed from whatever standpoint, the value ot total abstinence cannot but bo apparent to all unbiased minds. But there are some phases ot the situation more striking than othors. Here, for instance, ts the father of a fam ily. Is It not to his advantage, as also to tbe advantage ot those who look up to liltn as their natural protector, to live a life free from all taint of drink and Its de grading associations? Dv restraining the appetite for Intoxicants, and so avoiding their evtl influence, is he not enaoieu to give his children a better cbauoe In life than thev could possibly obtain were be to spend his substance la the saloons? A borne wherein peaee prevails under the blessed rule ot sobriety Is one ot the greatest advantages a child ran possess. "There Is no place like home" If that home H one In the true senso ot the word, It It ts a place wherein ts concentrated the affections of all tbe members of the fam ily, it It ts a haven where all may gather at evening to refresh themselves with love and kludnoss after the toils of the day. but If, instead, tbe father of the household ts a victim of the drluk evil, or it to make tbe picture darker though perhaps Jot much less common tbe mother iu ulgee In drink to excess, he or she, so far as their children, their natural depend ents, are concerned, has poured "the sweet milk of concord Into hell," and made that borne a mockery. Many a man who to day Is a disgrace to humanity might In all probability have been an ornament to so ciety were It not for the Intemperance which destroyed bis home life, and wreaked the happiness of bis youtb. A home to a child should be the embodi ment of everything good and pure and Inspiring. Other things being equal, tin borne wiiorcla total abstinence Is the rul Is the very best preparatory school a child can have for the great struggle ot lit which all must face sooner or later.

"Every time, and ho has Hod like sixty." "How did you come to have dealings with him In the first place?" "That's what I've boen writing. You see, be promised to make me a beast. Then be said be would brace me up, but he made me go staggortng around, and then be threw me Into the dltoh. He said I must drink to bo sociable. Thon he made me quarrel with my best friends and be the laughing stock of my enemies. He gave me a black eye and a broken nose. Then I drank for the good of my health. He ruined the llttlo I had, and loft me sick as a dog." "Ot course." "Ho said he would warm me up, and I was soon nearly froron to death. Ho said be would steady my nerves, but Instead ho gave me delirium tremens. He said be would give me great strength, and he made me helpless." "To bo sure." "He promised me courage." "Then what followed?" "Then he made me a coward, for I beat my sick wife and klckod my little sick child. He said he would brighten my wits, but Instead be made meactlike a fool and talk like an Idiot. He promlsnd to make a gentleman of me, but he made mo a tramp." Christian Work. A Temperance Lesson. Whether alooliollo liquor Is neenssary oi evonusotul to the soldier In the Held Is a question which authorities will continue to differ. Thero Is, howovcr, no question that In o campaign In a tropical country like Cuba liquor of any kind Is more dangerous than useful. Iu addition to this, the Houdno campaign now going nn furnishes direct Il lustration of the positive assertion that It Is not necessary. Tho English papors aro calling attention to the fact that the victory at Atbara war won on tea and coffee. An Invoice of Ger man whiskey whloh bad been sent to the expedition was poured out on tbe sand, and oven the beer was sent back. Tho result was that after a long night march and a fierce battle under the blazing sun the men were fine and fit. It Is the common Impression that Tommy Atkins Is more of a drinker than his Ameri can cousin. If Tommy Atkins can do with out his whisky and be all the better for It, his example might be safely followed bv our soldier boys lu Cuba. Now York World. Temperance and Athletics. The Duke of Connaugbt recently spoke of the improved sobriety In tbe British army since he Joined It. It Is no doubt very remarkable, and soma of the credit must be given to the Army Temperance As sociation. But somotbtng Is also due to the Improvement In the social habits of the officers, from whom themen naturally take example; something, moreover, to the In troduction of short service, as It was mainly old soldiers who wero tbe best customers of tbe canteen. And there Is something, further, in the proof which sereral of Lord Wolseley's campaigns and tho recent fight ing of Oatacre's Brigade have given, that abstinence from stimulants does no harm In the field, and therefore cannot hurt men In camps and quarters. But the main Im provement Is undoubtedly due to the In creased attention given to gymnastic work and to athletic sports. Men who go la for these cannot attain excellence if they drink to excess. And that has wrought a silent revolution which ts none the less effective because it Is n,ot talked about. All these things together have conspired to make the soldier the self-respecting man bo Is to-day. London Chronicle. Shots at the Bain Demon. Combat the open saloon with tho opon home.

It Is estimated that In consequence of Intoxication the sum lost to the working population of France In 1897 was 1,340,000, 000 franca. Shakespeare speaks of the "thousand natural shocks that flesh Is heir to," and some people Imagine that li'iuor is a cure for each and every one of them. Help yourself and others by taking and keeping tbe total abstinence pledge. It often bappons that tbe man who Is averse to offering even ton cents once a week at cbureh has no objection to spend ing much more than that sum each day for drink. There Is a continual warfare going on be tween the good and tbe bad in man's na ture. He who Indulges in drink to excess weakens the defenses which religion and morality erect against the assaults of evil. Ho long as a man who has been In tbe heblt or danger of Intoxication continues to drink be will go where drluk is sold; he will be habitually In the company of asso ciates who will easily overpower his best resolutions. For such men total abstinence is almost tbe onlv hnna, A Brash Hack.

Ever since the electrio light and power iudustry begau to be a factor iu the economic affairs of the indus trial world, its adaptation to the work of transmitting the power of water falls to more or less distaut points has been the dream of those who re alize its vast possibilities, aud who believe that the ingenuity of 'man is equal to the tusk of overcoming any dilllcultics that may be encountered iu attempts to find a successfnl solu tion of the problem. For more thau twenty years those who may be called electrical enthusiasts havo prophesied that the day would come when the power of Niagara would be delivered at the door of the consumer iu the city of New York, and capitalists have not beeu lacking who would have pro vided the means for carrying out an undertaking of this kiud if they had been given the proper assurance by electrical engineers of prominence that the results sought for could be attained. Such assurance, however, could not be giveu; for, although it is known that there ia no difficulty in tho way of accomplishing such result theoretically, the practical develop ment of the art has uot reached a stage that would render the realization of such au undertaking possible.

A ver tical shaft, driving a "spinner" three feet six inches iu diameter was fitted near the bottom of an upright cylin der twelve feet high, so arranged that the contents of the buckets falling through it were met by the ascending column of water from the centrifugal pump. This liquefied tho silt, and it was forced to the shore through wood en pipes placed on buoys or floats. These pipos wore oonuected by leather joiuts or sleeves. This machine could deposit at a point 1200 feet dis taut 2000 tons of solid ' matter to a height of eight foot above water sur face in twelve hours. Three years later doublo machines of this kind wero used ou canal work at Cron stadt, Russia.
