some columns of dailies. All current
topics made plaiu iu each issue by
special editoral matter written from in
ception down to date. The only paper
published especially for people who do
or do not read daily newspapers, and
y6t thirst for plain facts. That thin

HANDY MANURE CARRIER.
\ Self DiimpiiiK Backet llattning 011
it Trnck.
The manure carrier shown herewith
Is a very efficient one. it is used iu this j
case for carrying the manure from a :
cow bam. It consists of a large irou ;
bucket with the bottom hinged and
fastened to the bucket, when closet!,
with a spring sua;'. The bucket is car
ried in and out of thu burn on a track
which is placed so that when the iloors
are closed it leaves a very small open- i
ing around the track. The track is
supported on le of bun
MANUfiE CABBIES.
by timbers bolted together near the ;
top, carrying the track under their iu
tcrsection. The track is placed so thi' j
it is slightly down grade from the j
barn to the place where tae manure is j
dumped, so that the bucket runs out t
by its own weight when loaded.
A rope is attached to the running |
device to pull the bucket back into the j
bam. A cord Is also attached to the
bottom of the bucket, which by pull
ing will cause the bottom to drop and
allow the manure to fail out. Between
the track running device and the buck
et there is a pulley supplied with ropes
which will allow the bucket to be ra. •
ed and lowered. The bucket can be let
down upon the floor, loaded and then
pulled up ready to run out and be
emptied. An economical way to dis
pose of the manure is to have a wagon
so placed the manure can be dump
ed into it and hauled directly to the
field. Better still, if the farmer has a
spreader it can be placed to receive the
manure and can then be spread upon
the fields. In this case it is hauled eco
nomically find easily. It also saves
much of the disagreeable part of ma
nure handling. The bucket need not
be touched after it is loaded in the
barn. This device is in use on a west
ern farm. —Twentieth Century Farmer.
Alfalfa For Stock.
The experience of a very successful
feeder may be here quoted as typical
of the general practice. This farmer
feeds several hundred head of cattle
'each year, and his practice is to carry
his stock cattle through the winter by
feeding them low grade alfalfa hay,
such as is found at the tops and bot
toms of stacks, to which is added oat
t-traw, sorghum hay, corn fodder,
prairie hay or other cheap roughness.
The daily ration allowed for each ani
mal is about twenty five to thirty
pounds of alfalfa and five to ten pounds
of other roughness, and from this he
makes a gain of from one-half to one
pound per day for each animal with
out giving them any grain or other
feed of any kind. When the cattle are
ready to fatten for market It is only
necessary to add corn chop to this ra
tion, and they are ready for shipping
iu a very short time.
Baby beef, which has become so pop
ular and profitable in the west, has
been made possible by alfalfa.
Every farmer who wishes to save all
the valuable food substances that ex
ist in his corn and alfalfa will feed tho
two together, so that what one lacks
will be supplied by the other. In this
way beef and pork can be grown for
the farmer rapidly ami at tu« Wwent
possible cost.
Apyic Vinegar.
.Making vinegar is one of the simple
and easy tasks of the farm, but to se
cure a perfect product the process must
be correctly and carefully conducted.
Only sound, ripe apples should be used,
avoiding dirty fruit or washing it be
fore pressing. Use only juice from tho
first pressing, place in clean barrels,
which have been treated with hot wa
ter or steam to destroy undesirable
germs. 'The barrels should not be full
or tightly corked, as free access of air
is desirable. In ordinary cellar tem
perature.) the first stage, the alcoholic
fermentation, should be complete In
flvo or sis months, but by storing in
warmer rooms and by the use of yeast
the time can be much shortened. The
second stage, the acetic fermentatlou.
may be hastened by heat and by the
us« of a good "starter" of "mother" or
(harp vinegar. When the required
I'i idity is reached the barrels should
be Oiled to the buug and tightly corked
I to avoid uudesirabie fermentation.—
Farm Journal.
Winter I'anturaige.
As to the growing season, bur clover
commences Just about when the Ber
muda pasture falls. The two plants
can be used In combination with great
success. The Bermuda sod should be
scarified with a disk or cutaway har
row 111 October and rlie seed sown

Bermuda sod, furnishing winter pas

the Bermuda begins to itrow well. It
will reseed Itself In the Bermuda sod
as well as on open land If the seed
be allowed to form during the spring.
[ll order to secure the growth from
the seed the next fall It will be neces
sary to again scarify the laud as when
the seed was originally planted. This

Increasing attention is beiuj; given
by intelligent farmers and stock keep
ers everywhere to the use of concen

substances. This Is so because such
attention almost invariably yields a
handsome return. The old haphazard
methods of feeding are giving way to
more careful, more practical and
therefore more scientific methods It

corn fodder, corn grain, etc., by feed
ing suitable proportions of any of tho
high grade concentrates, such as old
or new. process Unseed meal, cotton
seed meal, gftiten feed, gluten meal,
etc. Of course In beginning to feed
these concentrates it is important to
start with a relatively small quantity
per cow per day and Increase tho al
lmvance as tlie creature's condition
and product warrant. Special care Is
necessary In this matter at this seasou

early outdoor stalks are v. anted from
established roots, a tall box or barrel
should be put over each root with
straw over the plant and a good wall
of well.rotted manure inside the ln
liosure. There will probably be a
good growth of tender stalks in the
early spring.
Winter Turniita.
Good mellow ground is best to 1 use
for turnips, but almost any kind will
do. Plow up a piece of oats stubble
or pull your onions and cultivate that
up. Be sure your ground Is harrowed
down well. Select a g >od winter va
riety of turnip seed. I think the winter
purple top the best. Mix. a ten cent
package of seed in a half pi lion of dry
ashes and sow the whole broadcast
over the ground, harrow in lightly, and
if there are good fall rnins you are as
sured of a good crop of . turnips.—Mis

likely to prove a success.

"Yes, she's a good nurse, doctor,"
said the patient rather reluctantly.
"You dou't mean that," was the an
swer of the physician. "What's the
matter with her? Come, tell me."
"Nothing," began the faint contradic
tion. "She's quiet, titl-y and sympa
thetic, but, doctor, her hair's dyed. I
could see it plainly yesterday when she
eat between me and the window."
The doctor did not speak for a mo
ment. lie did uot even look surprised.
"Such a nice nurse, too." went on the
patient. "Why should she do such a
foolish thing?"
It was then that she learned from the
doctor that dyed hair is not nearly so
uncommon In the case of trained
nurses as might be supposed. Sick peo
ple like to have young nurses about
them. Even physicians have a weak
ness for the young iwirsos. They be
lieve that their Interest and enthusiasm
are greater.
"The nurses' term of usefulness Is
short enough as It is." this physician
said, "for the work is so exhaustive that
they must soon succumb. Some of
them are compelled to give up after
ten years. Few are cv«-r able to keep
up until they have put in twenty years.
"If they feci that gray hairs, coming
perhaps a little earlier than thev are
due, are goinif to muke the term of
their best days even briefer they are
driven to hiding those traces of time
and overwork by the use of liair dye,
and the number that do make use of It
Is very much larger than anybody suit
poses."—New York Sun.
MAHOGANY.
Ttic War 'l'llla Beautiful Wood Wn»
II ronit hi Into Fashion.
Every one knows how effective and
handsome mahogany Is when used for
good furniture, but few of us know
how Its value was tirst discovered.
In the latter part of the seventeenth
century a I.ondon physician had a
brother on gaged In trade with the
West 11.(fees who on one occasion
brought home several logs of naLoga
uy as ballast. The doctor wa i building
a house, and his brother sugges' -d that
the log would I've for celling beams.
Acting on the proposal, the doctor gave
orders to the workmen to make use of
the mahogany, but tb< ir tools were not
equal to the task of ctutlng the hard
wood, and C o ' gs were put out of the
way in a corner In the garden.
Some time afterward the head car
penter tried to make a box from the
wood, but was unsuccessful v. lth ordi
nary tools, lie told the doctor, who
was Interested In the battling timber
and ordered heavier tools to lie made
to work it with, says Ilome Notes.
When tills was done and a box at last
made and polished, It was so handsome
that a bureau wa. • nt.-ide from another
