FEEDING tJNTHRESHKD OATS. If oats are to be fed unground, they might generally as well be fed un threshed. Cut them up, mixing the grain and straw together, aud both will be eaten. All young animals will so thorougly masticate this cut foed that the digestion will be nearly perfect. If any of the straw butts are left, wet them and feed with a mixture of corn meal and bran. The corn meal will stick to the wet straw so that all will be eaten with a good relish.—Boston Cultivator. WHEAT FOR FOWLS. Wheat is a grain that bens like and, in moderation, should have at all sea sons. In the wheat fields after harvest they naturally seek and live tho greater part of their time picking up the loose wheat found about the stubble field. For laying hens this grain fed in the morn ing three times a week will do much to ward bringing them into condition to lay. Too much, however, has a tendency to fatten rapidly,retarding laying. Good old wheat is always cheaper food than screenings. Barn-floor sweepings are nearly as good.—American Farmer. PROTECT VOUR FRUIT TREES. A bit of wire netting or tarred paper wrapped carefully about the base of young fruit trees should give* them good protection from mice and labbits during the winter months, says a farm journal. A split tube or a flexible wooden covering might also answer. It does not pay to plant fruit tiees, and care for them during the season, only to have them destroyed in the winter from lack of care. Litter and weeds of any kind about the base of an unprotected tree or near by in the orchard, are simply a cordial invitation to tho mice to come in and shelter themselves. Young fruit trees may be protected frooi girdling by rabbits by wrapping the trunk with straw, hay or cloth for one or two feet from the ground. Pieces of cornstalks, split in halves aud tied around the tree, with the flat side next the trunk, will keep the rabbits from eatiug the bark. Rabbits girdle trees on clean ground, and mice those on weedy land. Should a tree be girdled, heaping earth around the fresh wound will sometimes save the tree.—New York Voice. A POPULAR BREED OF SHEEP. The Dorset sheep has became exceed ingly popular in the last two or three years. This popularity is due to its re markable fecundity and its habit of breeding at any time of tho year, thus producing lambs that may be sold at the holiday when all the luxuries of the table areln the greatest demand. It is somewhat strange that this sheep has been so long neglected, but the low price of most farm products has been a spur to enterprise in this direction, and this useful sheep may now be considered as fully naturalized on this side of the At lantic. This sheep is white-faced, in fact all white, and has a close, short fleece of four to five pounds and a tuft on the face. Its mutton is next to the South down in general estimation, but the car • cass is larger. The most valuable char acteristic, however, is the early breeding, taking the ram in the spring and rearing a lamb in the fall, so as to be fat for market at Christmas, which is a special holiday in England, and more thought of, perhaps, than here. They breed again very soon after lambing, and thus produce two, and generally multiple, births within the year. The second lamb, however, is generally not pure bred, but a cross intended for mutton, and for this purpose the spring lamb is a cross commonly of the Southdown, and it is sent to market as such, on account of the greater popularity of this black faced breed in English markets. There is unquestionably a wide place foi this valuable breed in America, where the sheep industry is not nearly so well de veloped as it should be.—New York Times. BALED BRUSH. s The delights ot an open fire are denied many because of tho scarcity of fuel. But thousands live where brush is abun dant. It may be quickly and cheaply prepared for use on the hearth by a home-made hand press, and its disap pearance would prove a blessing to many a community. Two strong horses must first be built. Use plank crossed like the letter X, and firmly bolted together. Hollow the upper part so it will re semble a U rather than a V, and do not have it too far from the ground. Stand up these horses six feet apart, and line their upper hollows with heavy boards, placing one horse one foot from the end of this trough and the other just at the opposite end. Or a log may be dug out and firmly mounted. To the foot of the horse, flush with the end, bolt an up right board loosely, and attach to this a lever in such a way that it will come down closely over the end of the trough. To bale brush lay it in the press and bring down the lever. While holding this with the kuee, bind the bundle firmly with cheap tarred twine; then slip it along and repeat. Place the bands so the long roll can bo cut in lengths to please. To do co will be easy, and these bundles will be neat, pleasant to burn aud economical. Brush from trees cut this wiutor may be all prepared while green and pliable. Birch, chestnut, maple and alder arc con venient, as their branches are not scraggy. Corn and sunflower stalks and swale hay may be utilized thus also. To add variety and zest to the brilliance of the home hearth, bind a few evergreens. Boys and girls, as well as those of mature years, love to see fire. Who knows but it may help keep them home and make them love the old farm better. Surely it will attract social neighbors who will contribute to the evening's piofit.—New York Tribune. GBAIN FEED FOR PASTURE COWS. Two summers' feeding of grain to my summer milking cows has convinced me, writes John Gould, of Ohio, that grain doe* pay, though fed in limited quan tity. It is, no doubt, true that one feather does not make it clear botv far its possessor could fly, nor feeding of u dairy some grain one summer establish a rule of profitable procedure for all dairymen, or all circumstances. Yet it is a fact that there are thousands of dairies that would be benefited by an increase of feed of some kind, where there are only scores that would not re spond to it because of surplus pasture feed, so nutritive in quality, that grain would not, in its concentrated form, add to the nutritive qualities oi the ration. My own dairy has twelve cows that be came fresh during the autumn of 1891. From the first of November, 1891, to the first of November 1892, I sold at the creamery, actual platform weights, 70,800 pounds of milk. These cows have been fed grain of some kind daily for the last two years, but at no time over five pounds a day. Again, this is not a home bred, or home raised dairy, but one purchased out of Western droves of tall "springers" on their way to New York. These cows, after being milked all winter, were turned on pasture May 9th, and a grain ration of a pound and a half of oat dust, costing five-eighths of a cent, was fed to each cow daily, as long as she gave milk. There has been no month during summer up to September first, that this dairy of "strippers" has not given over 5000 pounds of milk, though after May 10th one CDW was pur posely dried off, and one went dry by reason of an accident, so that ten cows made up the summer dairy. After Sep tember Ist, it became necessary to dry off those nearest to coming in, so as to give them a month's rest, and the new, or rather the fresh ones, kept up the flow. The question with me is, could I, having luxurious pasture feed, have kept these "strippers" in fairly full flow of milk during the summer, and right well up to the time of calving, without the use of a little grain? It must be under stood that these cows have no known heredity behind them to give them long milking habits, for it is a saying that all drift cows have been sold for cause, so that it is either grain, or some other reason, that has influenced them to thus prolong their milking season, some of them a full year. Of course these cows were well kept last winter, but were fed the rather heterodox ration of silage and "se conds," of the latter five pounds daily, and possibly four pounds of hay at noon, while the care was still farther from orthodox, by their being kept in the stable continuously from Thanksgiv ing until Easter Sunday. After the first of October the herd was fed a fair feed of sweet corn once a day, in addition to the summer pasture and the oat dust. The after feed is not turned into at any time. If it is fed at all, it is cut high with the mower, and fed at the barn. Six of the cows, yet to freshen this sea son for next season's work, are giving an average mess of ten pounds each daily. The whole dairy is in the finest condi tion, which is an argument, aiong with the milk, that the indications are, that grain though in limited quantities, but uniformily fed, has paid one dairyman, at least, and confirms him in the faith that grain has an importaut part in bet tering the milking performance of a herd of grazing cows.—American Agri culturist. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Do nut use a scrub bull this winter. The tender shelter of a wire fence is severe. Do not give the shoats their exercise in the "front yard"—or in the "door yard." Now is a good time to buru a few ears of corn in the oven, shell and give to the poultry warm. Apple trees do not produce as nicely colored fruit on plowed land as those growing on grass land. Granges and other farmers' organiza tions ought to work hand in ha id with the experiment stations. One of the principal advantages with the incubator is in the early hatching that it is possible to secure. Ilogs form an important part of the farm stock, and their breeding and man agement is an important item. Growing a mass of fat in tho shortest time possible is not all that is necessary to make a pig most profitable. The start that a pig gets in the first three months of its life has much to do with its thrift and future profit. Avoid extremes in fattening pigs; that is, secuie a fair proportion of lean rather than a mass of fat, as is often done. If your clover hay is dry and dusty sprinkle with water. The place for clover is in the cow's stomach, not in her lungs. Two new and promising varieties of quinces, the Van Deman and Santa Rosa, are attracting the attention of horticul turists. Under no conditions should the pigs be allowed to bed on the manure pile; they are liable to become mangy and have a dry, hacking cough. Unless the wheat screenings are above the average, or they can be secured at a very low price, they can hardly be as cheap a feed for poultry as many seem to think. When tho weather is damp, especially, keeping the floors of the poultry quar ters liberally sprinkled with air slaked lime will aid in preventing roup from making a start. Professor Roberts, of Cornell Univer sity, finds by repeated experiments that sheep are the most valuable of domestic animals in keeping -up the producing capacity of a farm. If you feed corn fodder dry run if through a cutting box, or break the butt ends of the stalks with a hatchet, other wise you will hare much trouble in handling the manure. It is a well known fact that the honey producer is supported by his bees and the supply dealer is supported by the producer, yet the supply men usually occupy the front seats. One reason why women usually suc ceed well with poultry is because they are more considerate of the wants and necessities of fowls tiian men. But they do not usuaily brag so much about what they do, HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS/ DRAIN TOUR DISHW. I wonder how many ladies who hav* hired help to cook for and are harried with their work know what a saving ol work it Is to drain their dishes? asks • housewife. I tried draining them bj piling them in a pan, but did not like if because the water from the dishes would be in the bottom of the pan, of course, and one edge of each dish would be wet. So I tried wis way and like it much bet ter: Wash the dishes, cups first, with soap and water, rinse with scalding water and turn into a pan which has a tea-towel folded and placed in the bot tom. The towel will absorb all the water and the dishes will be just as bright as when wiped, if soap is used and they are rinsed well.—New York Journal. ■ * DO TOU KNOW? That you can clean a sponge by soak ing it a few hours in cold buttermilk? That lettuce has recently been pro nounced a sleep-producer?

Strain jelly into jelly jars which havo been thoroughly washed in soap and water and have been standing in boiling water for half an hour. When the jelly is cool pour over it a small quantity of melted parafline; let it harden; then pour in more, for as thj first hardens it may crack or shrink from the sides and leave spaces where ferments may enter. In other words, the jars need to be made air tight—not that the air does mischief, but because it contains the or ganisms which on entering the jelly cause by their growth the changes known as "souring." The object is to exclude all micro-organisms. This may be done in other ways than by the use of parafline. Cut a piece of white paper just large enough to cover the jelly; soak in alcohol for five min utes, then fit it to the tumbler and pack over it a wad of sterilized cotton batting, letting it fill the mouth of the jar or tumbler like a stopper. This is an ef fectual means of preserving all Kinds of fruit, as micro-organisms cannot go through the batting. Care must be taken, however, to have it thoroughly sterilized. This may easily be accomplished by making the wads of the required shape and size, and putting them on a tin plate in a hot oven for half an hour. When putting the cotton into jars be careful not to touch the un der side of the wad or allow it to touch anything until it is placed in the jar; each nay be wound with a piece of cloth to make it look neat, or a piece of paper may be tied over it.—Albany Argus. RECIPES. Oat Meal Pone—After oat meal has been boiled, put two pints in a buttered, pan, season with salt and half a cup of sweet milk to moisten it. Bake for half an hour, in a steady oven. Serve while hot. Estclla Pudding—Five well-beaten eggs; two and a half teaspoonfuls of sugar; twotablespoonfulsof butter; one tablespoonful of baking powder, one cup of chopped raisins, flour to stiffen. Bake two hours. Fish Omelet—Make a plain omelet with six eggs, and when ready to fold, spread over it fish prepared as follows: Add to a cupful of any kind of cold fish, broken fine, a cupful of cream and a tea spoonful of butter. To be seasoned with salt and pepper. Spice Rolls—Take a piece of bread dough, roll it half an inch thick, spread butter over it, and sprinkle with cinna mon and white sugar, roll it up as you would a jelly cake, cut in pieces an inch thick; place them in a pan close to gether. Let them rise, and bake twenty minutes. Mush Biscuit—Mix enough flour with two quarts of cold mush, and half a cup of lard to make it roll nicely on a mold ing board. Roll the dough about as thick as you would for biscuits, cut it into cakes with a biscuit cutter, and bake a rich brown color, for twenty j minutes. Fried Egg Plant—Make a weak solu tion of salt and water, pare the egg plant and cut in thin slices, let them soak in the solution an hour and a half; then take them out and wipe the slices dry; dip in beaten egg and roll in grated dry bread ot cracker crumbs. Fry in hot butter until soft and nice brown and serve. Potato Souffles—Boil six fair-sized potatoes and mash very fine, avoiding any lumps. Boil one cup of milk and one cup of butter; add the potatoes, salt and pepper sufficient and beat to a cream; then add, one at a time, the yolks of five eggs and beat it well. Beat to a stiff froth the whites of the eggs and add this to the mixture; stir lightly, pour into a buttered pan and bake twenty minutes. Cranberry Tarts—Take a pint of well ripened cranberries and boil till tender in half a pint of water. Strain, squeez ing out all the juice, and then put onto boil again, adding a pound of sugar to a pint of juice. Boil just twenty minutes and then set aside to cool. Make a rich pie crust and cut it into circles as large as the top of a table goblet. Pinch a strip of crust around the edge and bake quickly in hot oven. Fill the baked crust with the partly cooled cranberry jelly and set in a cold place to harden and pleasant tarts will be made. * Faithful Arctic l>o,u. It has not been generally considered that in the various arctic expeditions which have been made the arctic dog has played an important part. In the recent journey of Lieutenant Peary 1300 miles were made by sledges drawn by these faithful and useful animals, and they averaged, according to Mr. Peary's state ment, about twenty-one miles a day. The dogs require about the same amount of food as one man, and draw a load about one-fourth greatei than could a man.— Chicago Herald.

The return of the crinoline some time in the near future seems to be one of the accepted facts. The Boston Boat and Shore Club at its annual celebration engaged only women for after-dinner speakers. The University of Edinburgh has opened its art classes to women students on the same terms ai men. The Empress of Austria has solved the servant girl problem. She does her own cooking, or at least superintends it. Queen Victoria has her gloves made to order, but her example is not generally followed by English women of fashion. Throatlets and neck scarfs of various kinds of fur, showing head, eyes, tail, and paws of the animal, aro in high vogue. The tailors have preserved the Russian blouse. It is a short of compromise they make with the round waist, for it takes a belt. Banjo playing has grown to be a fash ionable fad in New York.

In Belgium two young women recently obtained employment in the Department of Justice at Brussels, and at Antwerp two others have secured places under the Tribunal of Commerce. Ear-rings are no longer fashionable, and the best dressed women appear now without even the solitaire, pearl, or tor quois screw which was the gradual abandoning of these ornaments.

The phonograph is put to an excellent use by the Queen of Italy, who, while she often improvises charming little melodies, is unable afterward to repeat them.

Black is the universal mourning color in this country, but in Russia pure white is the symbol of bereavement, and in Paris a touch of crimson is permitted among the weeds of woe.

Italians use white cloth for young people and purple for adults. Full-length wraps, made in gown style, are in the richest materials, velvet, plush, jet and passementerie, silk and cloth, and fur being combined in them.

Among the great discoveries of the year 1892 in medicine and science will be recorded that of artificial quinine. Scientists have long sought to manufac ture artificial quinine so that the med ical profession need not depend upon the supply of the trees from which the drug is obtained for their important anti-fever medicine. Doctors Grimnux and Arnaud, of Paris, have succeeded in obtaining an artificial substance similar to quinine in its effects, and the methed of making it is given as follows: The base cuprein contained in the shrub Remijia pedunculata found growing in Brazil is treated with sodium, and then the combination thus obtained is treated with chloride of methyl. The result of this combination is a drug that is iden tical with the substance which wc know as quiuine. It has the same effect when given in fevers, and it will answer the same purpose as the natural product when applied for other purposes than re ducing the timperature of patients. The result of this discovery which has long been anticipated will l>e the cheapening o r the dru«, and the regulation of the prices during all seasons. The dis covery, however, will lead to more im portant results in the way of enabling chemists to obtain analogous medicines of great value.—Yankee Blade.

Most persons who are familiar with it think of it as an ordinary weed of small size, and even 6o high an authority as the Encyclo pedia Britaunica refers to it as growing in "treeless valleys and slopes." It will astonish most persons to know that it sometimes grows to sucb proportions as to provide a section of country with trees of its own wood, producing groves of thick-trunked and comparatively tall trees, instead of mere weeds. Prolessor Elwood Meade, the State Engineer of Wyoming, while exploring the northern and central parts of that State last sum mer, came upon a district where the sage brush thrived thus gigantically. Many of the sage trees that he saw were eighteen feet high, with trunks at least a foot in diameter. This was in the Big Horn Basin, east of the National Yellow stone Park and northeast of the Wind River Indian reservation, where the No Wood River joins the Big Horn. Professor Meade leturned to Cheyenne enthusiastic in his praise of the basin now little known except to the stock men whose cows range there. It is as big us some of the older States, and will provide plenty of water for irriga tion from the tributaries of the Big Horn River. Several very large irrigable tracts have been surveyed already. No railroads yet reach the district, but the Burlington and Missouri Railroad is building to Sheridan in the county of that name, and has employed its agents to "spy out the land" beyond. Profes sor Meade had never seen such big sage brush as he discovered there, but since his return he realizes the truth of Solo mon's assertion that there is no now thing under the sun, because he has been informed that at some point in Calfornia the same weed "grows to such propor tions that the people cut it for cord wood."—San Francisco Examiner.

When this glow of health is absent assimilation is wrong, and health is letting down. Scott's Emulsion taken immediately arrests waste, regardless of the cause. Consumption must yield to treatment that stops waste and builds flesh anew. Almost as palatable as milk. Prepared bj Scott A Bowne, N. Y. All drurirists. |THE KIND ■ PHELPS 8. WELLS, " Ft.
