It is the rule when a man has put a good deal of work into anything, he is pretty sure to develop an affection for it. The acres a fanner has toiled to bring to high productiveness are as the apple of his eye, sometimes it would seem even dearer than family ties. When sons and daughters come to an age for leaving home, nine times out of tea the wisest thing a farmer can do is to deed them a part of the old farm. More often than not what the farmer reserves for his own use will give him more profit than the whole would do if cultivated without the help of children who have helped him perhaps for several years before they attain their majority, more than he generally realizes.—Boston Cultivator. FARM ENOUGH FOB TWO FAMILIES. A young couple in early life buy a farm that will keep si-teen to eighteen cows. They go in debt for a large share of the purchase price, but by in dustry and economy succeed finally in paying it. An only son has grown to young manhood, and begins to talk of securing a home of his own. His parents begin at once to say; "Our farm is too small for two families." So, as an ad joining farm is for sale, the boy buys. Suppose, on the contrary, the father had taken his interest money, and indeed his surplus income for a few years, and ex pended the amount in buying extra fertilizer, procuring better stock—in short, making the old farm produce more than both farms will. How much better every way I Many advantages come from intensive rather than oxten sive farming.—Wisconsin Farmer. SHEEP SATED BY BELLS. A South Dakota correspondent of Farm, Stock and Home having "lost lambs enough by wolves to pay for half a dozen bells tor every sheep in the flock," finally ended the costly and cruel slaughter by the simple expedient which has been frequently recommended by Eastern shepherds in the chronic war fare against bloodthirsty dogs of all de grees: "It is no use to put a single bell, or a small number, on a large flock, as fre quently a few sheep will get separated from the main flock, out of hearing of the bells. Last year I had a few lambs killed in August. No bells were on the sheep. A small bell was put on each lamb and it ended the loss for that year. This year the bells were put on the old sheep, about one to fifteen. The flock was watched, on account of lambs, until some time in June. In July more lambs were killed. I then bought sixty more bells, small cow bell pattern (cost, with straps, $14.50 per hundred), and put them on the lambs, and have lost none since. The wolves are here, have fre quently been Been, have killed sheap for neighbors, but hare not touched mine. One of the flock wis turned out in the morning when there was a wolf seon in the pasturo, and it would not let the bells come within gunshot of it." WIIEN TO SOW BEETS. Any kind of beets may be sown in May or early in June. The soil needs to be made fine and mellow, and the seed is sown in rows twenty-four inches apart for the sugar beets, and thirty inches for field beets. The seed is sown in these rows teu inches apart, but as it is more labor to drop the seed exactly this dis tance than the cost of more seed, the quantity of seed 19 increased to six pounds to an acre, which distributes it quite closely. The excess* of plants is then taken out by the hoe, or by running a small band cultivator across the rows and leaving strips of three or four inches, with clear intervals of oight or ten inches between them. These small squares thus left contain the plants and these are kept free from weeds with the hoe. The rest of the land is worked with a common cultivator, and the small one in the cross rows, thus greatly re ducing the hand hoeing, which other wise makes much labor in the weeding of the crop. The seed may be sown by hand when only a small plot is cultivated, or by a hand seed drill which drops and covers the seed at the same time, when a larger plantation is made. For the best yield the crop needs liberal feeding, either with manure plowed in ! n the fall, which is the best time, or with fertilizer in the spring, just before the planting.—New York Times. CHANGE IN DAIRY METHOD. Of late years the whole practico of 1 dairying has changed. It used to be that cows were pastured through the \ summer, and the butter was packed ' away for sale late in the fall or in the winter. Then the buyers went around and bought up the stock made in the summer. The cows were dry by the first snowfall and were merely kept alive through the winter and turned out on the fresh grass in the spring. There are many farmers who got so deep in this old rut that they could not see out of it and notice that they were left behind, and were going on alone, and quite out of sight of their wide awake neighbor. And they are still plodding along in the same seclusion. But others oi the look out for improvements changed their method and management, and are mak ing their cows woik and make profit every day in the year that is possible, and for the time tbey must rest this is chosen when it cost* the least for feed iug. Thus winter dairying is the basis of the new practice, and by high feed ing at this season and "lost improved methods, butter is for sale freali from the dairy, or is packed for sale in the summer, when the cows cia rest at ths least cost. Butter may be made bet ter aad more cheaply in ttir. winter than in the tvnmer by the use of the modern apparatus, and it is far easier to keep the milk warm by fire at thii season than it is to keep it cold in the summer by the use of ice. And thus winter dairy ing will be the rule, and mining in a smudge to fight off the all the disagreeable cfocta of the hot weather of the summer sea-ion, not to mention the ill effect on the cows themselves of the exposure in the average dairy to the heat, will be left for the poor and igno - rant dairyman to endure.—American Dairyman. PARKING AT THE WATIOWS. The Pennsylvania station has been ex perimenting with silage corn, and some scientific results as to planting and feed ing value of the different varieties of corn are given that the Boston Cultiva vor thinks must be of general value. Thick seeding has baen found to give the best yield according to the nutritive value. Forty pints of seed corn planted to the acre gave a much larger percentage of drying matter for the silo than thirteen pints, and the dry matter of the thick seeded corn was 5} per cent, more di gestible than from the thin seeded. Thick seeding in every way gave better results than the thin seeded. The early dent corn was found to be inferior to the large late dent, which is not so com monly sold for field crops as the former. The large dent produced forty-three per cent, moro dry matter than tte early dent, and it was 3| per cent more di gestible. There can be but one conclu sion from such experiments. Thick seed ing and the use of large stalked varie ties of corn should be used for silage. The Jensen system of treating grain seeds in hot water applications before using has been thoroughly explained in this country, and many farmers adopt the method of preventing loss through smuts. Recent reports at Copenhagen, Denmark, where J. I. Pensen has beer experimenting, give as the resulting in crease of the crops through the hot' water system of treating seed is between three and eleven per cent. This increase is explained by the fact that greater vi tality is given to the seed by the hot water soaking, and by the preventing of smuts. In the treatment of oats alone millions of dollars have been saved to the farmers of tho world, and this wti all due to annual outlay of several thou sand dollars by the public spirited in vestigator and discoverer of the system. ! The treatment of grains by this method differs somewhat in various countries according to the mosture of the climate, but the general principles are the same wherever wheat, oats and other grain* are cultivated. FARM AND GARDEN NOTRB. Knowledge of tho apiary mu*t bo gained by yourself. Others may supply you with facts, but results must be tho work of one's own experience. By feeding at short intervals all that an animal will oat up olean the hogs can be made to fatten more rapidly, but tho work must be done regularly. Docs it cost more to raise 1000 pounds of flesh in the form of poultry than It does to raise 1000 pounds in tho form of beet? Which sells for the most? The light Brahmas are of tho very best breeds to keep whore it is dosirod to raise large, heavy roosters that can bo made ready for market when six orsevnn months old. Mechan says it is always better to pruuo roses early in the winter than to wait till spring, aad, as a general prin ciple, it is much better to prune oarly than to prune late. The new chrysanthemum, Goldea Wedding, attracted much attention at the late show in New York, and has been pronounced as probably the finest yellow yet produced. Have you ever figured out how much profit you made by letting sheep run in a field of cornstalks till their wool was full of burs? Some time when in good spirits undertake the job. Do not feed a lot of cockerels till they become "old roosters," then sell on the general market. It is bard to make them pass as "spring chickens" even if tho dealer (?) cuts the spurs off. Professor W. A. Henry has shown by experiment that it costs $2.61 to pro dtca 100 pounds of gain with lambs, and §3.03 to secure the same gain with pigs of about the same age. When the eggs are wanted for the in cubator, a good plan is to separate the bens from the roosters for a week and then turn them together, and then begin saving the eggs in a few days. Whilo the farm affords plenty of range and an abundance of grass for the fowls, yet with this good feed and care are necessary, especially during the winter, if the best results are secured. Overfed hens aro liable to disease, and when leg-weakness, egg-bound, soft or extra large eggs are laid, or poor hatches occur, they may be directly traced to overfeeding of tho hens. Some of the winter-flowering salvias are very showy. 8. involucrata is ono of the best; it has long spikos of pink flowors, and it lasts in bloom three months, says a correspondent in Garden ing. On the farm, at least, it is often pos sible to keep a email flock with very lit tle expeuse, as they will be able to pick up tho greater patt of their feed, while if a larger number were kept more feed ing would bo necessary. The first demand of the gardener is for lettuce, and he begins his round of profit when he can deliver the large, crisp heads ahead of his neighbor. Seed for lettuco plants must be started in the fall, wintered in cold frames, and sown in February in tho hot-bed. Whoa chicks droop their wings and die without any apparent cause it is usually the result of breeding from pullets, unless the chickens are being chilled or insufficiently brooded, or by being kept in damp quarters, either of which would produce roup and conse quent death. The main reason why shallow cultiva tion succeeds so well with the onion is according to A. A. Crozier, because the roots grow best in a compact soil, and the explanation which attributes the general practice of cultivation to the supposed shallow-rooting habit of the plant is erroneous. Seed of the white barletta. or of tha queen onion, if sown now, will make a tino crop for pickling before cold weather. Tne heaviest croppers are the mammoth pompeii and the white | Rarganus, which look very much alike. The former is said to be superior to all I Italian onions. HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.

According to the Household, very pretty little jackets for babies can be made from the legs of silk and woolen stockings when the feet are worn out. The stitcher that contke the legs are oarefully picked out, and the legs joined together down the back of the jacket. The sleeves are cut from the narrower parts and sewed in. The jacket is then edged around with a scal loped edge of worsted or knitting silk, which is started by drawing a single crochet through tbe edge of the ma terial. A cord and tassels made from the ssme is run through the neck. TEST FOR OLEOMARGARINE. If io doubt whether you are using but ter or oleomargarine, boil a tablespoon ful of each. The butter will foam with out much noise, the oleomargarine on the contrary will sputter and hiss as does melted lard, but it will not foam so de cidedly. Butter that keeps unusually well in a warm room in summer is to be suspected. A well-known chemist is Inclined to think a mouse knows the difference without these tests, for he found that of two crackers, one spread with butter and one with oleomargarine, left in his laboratory, the mouse pre ferred the former. The latter was sam pled and left.—New York Post. HOW TO SELECT CARPETS. There are many things to learn about carpets and their purchase. The man ufacture of them is full of catches and tricks, and in the desire to make cheap goods, quality and everything else are sacrificed to looks. A carpet may be made with a very pleasing surface, fairly good colors and generally attractive appearance, but will last scarcely as long as it takes to make and put it down. The regular tapestry carpet is printed like old-fashioned cal ico. It is made all in one color which is the color of the ground, it is then run through presses on the same general principal as any other printed article. The color merely strikes through the outside of the wool. The pile is held in place only by single light binding thread, aud a single strand of the wool may be drawn out for a yard or more by giving a gentle pull at one end. While this sort of carpet may have its uses, it is the most unprofitable thing imaginable to buy. A chair drawn over it may pull the threads out, any rough ness in the heel of the shoe is almost certain to do it, and ordinary use in a short time works the threads all out of place. In body Brussels every color is dyed in the skein, then woven in, being thrown upon the surface only where this special color is required. In this class of goods the variety of colors is neces sarily limited, as with present machinery only a certain number can be handled independently of each other. Body Brussels carpets arc usually designated by the number of frames which signify the number of colors used.ln all carpets of this kind, the wool surface is thrown through the fabric, and shows to Borne extent on the bac'i. Unscrupulous dealers have so arranged their machinery that the back of tapestry carpet is stained or clouded to follow as closely as possible the colors on the sur face. By this means unsophisticated or ignorant petsons are imposed upon, as their idea that the colors show through is easily met bj the stained appearance on the back. Of course such goods are a most bare faced fraud and should be treated as such. That reputable dealers sometimes handle them is not at all to their credit. What is known as velvet carpet is merely a tapestry with the pile cut. Wilton carpets have the interwoven back of the body Brussels, are yarn died and questionably the most durable carpets made. Moquettes and Axcni asters are very thick and sometimes very durable, but the purchase of such carpets may be said to be almost a lottery. For ordinary use and at moderate cost, body Brussels is by far tho best in vestment in the carpet line.—New York Ledger. RECIPES. Apple Marmalade—Peel, quarter and core pleasant tart apples; ccok in water until tender; then squeeze through a colander; measure and allow half as much sugar as pulp, and cook together until thick; then pour into bowls and tumblers. Fried Potatoes—Boll some potatoes; when done, peel them and set them away to get cold. Then chop them up fine and add pepper and salt to the taste. Flour them and fry in hot lard. They must be brown. Some add a little vine gar just before they are taken out of the pan. Giblets—Clean the giblets of a turkey or chicken, cut the gizzard into quarters and sepsrate the lobes of tho liver. Stew them in water to cover with an onion, salt and pepper. When lender thicken the liquor with flour and butter cooked together; add tomato or walnut catsup to taste, and serve on toast. Squash Pie—One quart of stewed and strained squash, a scffnt quart of boiling milk, two-thirds of a nutmeg, one and one-half teaspoonfuls of salt,two cupfuls of sugar. Mix slowly and well; when cold add four well beaten eggs. Line deep plates with a plain paste, and after filling with the mixture bake in a mod erate oven for forty minutes. Talking; Through a Bird's Neat. A telephone lineman at Punxsutawney, Penn., the other day discovered that s little to the south of the town, where the Indiana county line runs through tbe branches of a maple tree, a robin had built its nest around the wire. The red • breast had used the wire as a main sill for its domicile. So when Punxsutatf ncans and Indianians do business or make love over the telephone they may be said to be talking through a bird's nest. This is at once more romantic and more practical than talking through one's hat.—Philadelphia Heoord, The accordion pleat is obsolete. The turndown collar gains favor.

Pearls and emeralds are profusely used in laoe pins, rings, hat pins, or hair or naments. Pearls are especially popular. Opals and turquoises aro shown in many fashionable rings. Necklaces of pearls and rubies are much desired. Bracelets are narrow, with precious stones set at intervals around the band. The ordinary "gossamer" is tho ugli est and most unbecoming of woman's garments. Knowing this, some pretty girls use instead long cloaks, which they have made for them, or made themselves of the pretty waterproof goods that come in all sorts of plaids, made to cover the entfro gown, and finished with a jaunty cape. The sweeping changes in the shape of hats and bonnets have brought about a new style of wearing tho hair, termed "the bun"—a very descriptive name for the big round knot of hair which is soon to be the fashion. It is worn low, though not so low as the Langtry knot, and de mands a larger amount of hair than the majority of women possess. There has been a decided stand against wearing crape for some years past, but the Princess of Wales gave it the coup de grace by dispensing with it during her mourning for the late Duke of Clar ence. Now there is a further protest against the heavy crape worn by widows, and doubtless before another year has come aud gone the modification in this direction will be very perceptible. Fireballs Save Coal. The uie of fireballs tare* one-third coal and is common enough in England, from the laborer'* cottage to the lodg ing* of thrifty gentlewomen in Bath and Cheltenham. Made of one third coal dust, two-thirds sand and beaten clay, molded with water into balls the size of a goose egg and dried, they are perma nent fuel. When the coal fire is hot and red a dosen of these balls put into the furnace will become red-hot and stay so, like red-hot brick, keeping up the heat far longer than coal without them. There is nothing like tbem for keeping the hou'e warm at night, and half a dozen put red-hot into a brazier or porta ble furnace would take the chill off bed rooms very comfortably. When rooms are heated by stoves economy lies in nerer letting the fire go down in cold weather, as it takes more heat to warm the ioom: when the walls are chilled than it does to keep them so for days. —Chicago Herald.

The First Complete Bible. The first complete Bible priuted in England was issued in 1535 without any publisher's "name. It was the work of the celebrated Miles Coverdale, who in corporated, with revisions, Tvudalo's books of the New Testament, as well as his Pentateuch and Book of Jonah. It was thus only partially original as far as Coverdale was concerned, the remaining portion being a translation of a transla tion. No perfect copy of this edition is known to be iu existence. A copy sold a few years ago in London for a sum .equal to S6OO had the title, nineteen leaves and the map missing. The Cover dale Bible is the one mentioned in these notes heretofore as the "Bug Bible" ami the "Treacle Bible," on account of two curious passages found therein. The passage in Jeiemiah which we now read as "Is there no Lalm in Gilead?" is madt by Coverdale to read as "Is there no more treacle at Gahahad?" The psalm which says "Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night" reads, "Thou shalt not nede to bee afrayed for any bugs by night." Tho ninth psalm, in that por tion which should say "Put them iu fear, 0 Lord," Coverdale makes to say "Set a schoolmaster over them."—St. Louis He public. Cured of a Broken Hark. Drs.

In October, 1888, Mulligan re ceived a fracture of the vertebra;, and, as usual with such cases, was paralyzed from the loins down. Eight days after Mulligan's entrance to the hospital the physicians, in the presence of seventjr-tive students of the West Pennsylvania Medical College, made an incision eight inches long in the man's back. The vertebra were ex posed. A fracture of the arches of the tenth and eleventh vertebra was found. Fragments of bone were pressing on the spinal cord. This pressure was relieved.
