What would otherwise eanse sickness bus an escape valve through the milk secretion. The mere statement of this fact ought to emplia aize the necessity of giving milch cows pore water. The uuhealihfulness of milk in summer, from which so many children sicken and die, is more fre quently cmsed by giving the cows im pure water than by anything else. The cow should not be allowed to diiuk what is unfit for a pereou. There la great economy In feeding horses to cnt iT.e coarse food and mix it, after moistening, with oatmeal or a mixture of corn and oaU ground to gether. Both the hay aud grain do more good, as the whole is better di gested than when left to be masticated by the animal. With an increased proportion of meal, straw may be substituted for cut hay, but there should be enough coarse material to fill the stomach, aud alfo to make the wet meal porous, so that it will not mass in a lump, and thus causa colic if not death. Sheep need shelter at all seasons ot the year. The cold rains, which com late in fall, are even more hurtful fa them than is the steady cold, f reczinj weather of later wluter. So long a the sheep is dry, its coat of wool is protection against the cold. TVhoi this becomes wet, the coat, being sex the skin, chills it by constaut evapora tion, until the animal takes cold anc dies from lung disease, just as its owner would himself do if he were ex posed to rain in woolen clothing, and kept it on until it dried out by the heal of bis body. The shrunken grains of wheat thai come out as screenings have less starch, but proportionality more gluten, than that which is plump. The very besl nse of this shrunken wheat is to feed it to hens. It needs no grinding, as fowls do better on whole grain, which gives due exercise to their strong di gestive organs. Wheat contains more phosphate of lime than any other grain, and most of tills is near the outside husk. This helps make the shell, while the gluten, which lias just beneath forms the bulk of the egg, especially the albumen or white. Although hops can be grown from eed, this is not the usual way of pro pagating them. The beat time to plant hops is in the spring, as early as the ground can be worked. The rows are made about eight feet apart, aud the sets planted iu these at about the same distance. Each set has two eves, is planted about an in;h deep and pressed firmly down. The urst year, a A'. of corn may be planted t-ach way between the hops, but the second year, the en tire ground is to bv kept well cultivated. Where the hop lon-e lias not made its appearance, the crop is generally a very profitable one. It Is a good plan to use the summer, made manure as a top dressing for the poor places in wheat fields. A. very little fertilizer goes a great way in inch cases. In our experience, when that ground is dry, little damage is done to wheat by driving over it with loaded manure wagons having broad tires that do not cut in deeply. If only ordinary wheels are used, defer drawing until the surface is frozen so It will bear a load, or wait still later and draw on the snow with a sled. In this case some marks should be put up beforehand to show where the mannr" had better be spread. It will save much labor if the effect of Fall pruning is thoroughly 'under stood. Wherever a dormant limb is cut off, the bud just below the cut will next season push with greater vigor, and become the main shoot if the high est left on the tree. The more vig orously a young tree is pruned in Fall or Winter, the stronger growth of wood it will make nest year, aud the concentration of sap in a few large hoots will prevent fruiting. The only pruning that can promote frnitf ulness 1 that done while, the tree is in leaf, and this result is effected by checking the vigor of its growth. It is not often that a careful farmer will allow sows to breed" so as to drop their pigs late in the Fall. It oats more to winter such pigs than they are worth, as it is almost impossi ble, however well fed and boused, to keep them from being stunted. But the pigs need not" be wholly lost. Probably the best use of them is to fatten rapidly and sell for roasters about holiday time. Roast pig is bet ter liked by many than roast turkey, and if it were offered generally In Fall and early winter it is probably the best nse to wldah pigs dropped at this un timely season oau be put. The future shape, productiveness and value of an orchard depends mainly en the way it it pruned while young. It requires knowledge of the habit of growth of different varieties to know how to prune them to ad vantage. A little pruning while the the tree is small sets it to growing in the right shape, and avoids the need of awing off large limbs later, which can never be done without Inflicting wounds likely to destroy the vitality of the tree. It is in pruning, more even than In anything else, that a little done at the right time saves the necessity for 4oing much more afterwards. Many farmers who have practised the plan recommend cutting corn fod der and piling it iu small cocks to cure. In a large stack the heating of so much wet material would certainly prove in jurious, bnt in small-sized cocks the fermentation is jut enough to furnish heat to dry them out. It also softeus the stalks, wluch are eaten with less waste than those set up iu stacks and dried by exposure to the air. Rain does not penetrate these cocks to any great extent. farmers have often noted that the dampened stalks kept in mows, even when slightly mouldy, were eaten cleaner than thost horougly dried.

Uberly, the "bishop," was a younger man than he is now he was an irre- Sressible joker. A member of the eflerson Club, who claims to know what he is talking about, tells ns tbat John was born at just 1 o'clock in the morning-, and relates the following; circumstances concerning the twenty first anniversary of that erent: The entire household was asleep excepting, presumably, young Oberly. At a few minutes after 1 o'clock be went to the door of each bedroom and with feigned cautiousness aroused the sleeper, say log: "There's a man In the house." Presently everybody was up half dressed. Some ventured out into the halls and others stood timidly in their half-open doorways, while still others remained out of sight behind locked doors. '-Come out here," said John to those who had not left their rooms ; "I tell you there's a man in the house.". "Finally he succeeded in getting everybody into the hall, where the group stood, half afraid, half athatnod to show fear. ""Where is he?" said one, "Mere I am," answered John I "I am a man. I was 21 fifteen minutes ago." Washington Post. A Monument of the Past, tonehenge is the name given to a DruiJical temple by the Saxons, mean ing banging stones, from the likeness to a gallows. The ancient Britains called it Main Ambers, or sacred stones. The temple is surrounded by a ditch fifty feet wide; the outer cir cle consisted of sixty stones, thirty perpendicular, twenty feet in height and nearly four feet apart. On tlio 1 tops of these were thirty imposts, reg ularly united; within this was a sec ond circle of forty stones, smaller and void of imposts. There are indica tions of two ovals of stones interven ing. "Within the second circle was the ell or adytum, iu which was the altar, a huge slab .of blue .marble. The whole structure consisted of one hun dred aud forty stones. So many of these enormous stones have fallen that the general appearance has become wild and presents a stupendous pile of dilapidation; yet by walking around and clambering amid the prostrate masses, the original design may be traced. There are three eutrances to the temple from the plain. Christian Union. Went Around The Globe. 3. A. Beswick, of Holiidaysburg. Pa., is happy in the experience of hav ing sent and received a letter which left that place on the 18th of July last, and made a passage entirely around the globe, traveling east and was re ceived November 13 in mail from the west. The letter was iu Aden, Ara bia, to which place it was originally directed Angunt 11, and after a visit to the United States consulate, was sent to Yokohama, Japan where it arrived Sep ember 25. It was there advertised and then forwarded to the United States October 10. Deducting the sixteen davs delaved at Aden, and the time it remained in the postofHce at Yokohama, the letter made the circuit around the mother earth in 83 days actual travel. The expenses of the trip were just five cents. Austrian Opinion of American Women American women, if they are not always beautiful, at least know how to make themselves appear so. Nowhere have I ever seen so many beautiful women as in America, including even old women with white hair. The native American girl, especially if of Euglish or Scotch descent, is large and slender, generally blonde, with regular features and remarkably small bands and feet. The complexion is often pale ; rarely do they have the fresh color of a Vien nese girl. The most beautiful girl I have ever come across iu my life I saw in a Xew York store. She was an American of Spanish descent, of a lit erally dazzling beauty, such as I had never before encountered in life or on canvas. The happiest marriages are those of American men to German women. A Good Cat Story. A good cat-and-sevei-al-kittens story comes from the Wheeling postoiflce. It seems that when the stamp olerk opened the safe in his department about 7 o'clook Monday morning, a cat that has lived around the building for a long time stepped out and began to stretch herself. She had been In the safe since Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, about 21 hours, aud as the compartment she occupied was air tight she bad the air therein pretty well worked over and it was getting somewhat stale. The oat had evident ly gotten lonesome during its confine ment aud was rather scarce of amuse ments to pass the time away, for when the clerk went to take out some stamps he found four small kittens snuggled together in the safe.
