American Indians. The palm-thatched
hut of the Arawaks of Guiana; the
long house of the Iroquois, construct
ed of bark, and divided into six spaces
within, one for each of the Six Na
tions; the bireli-bark tent of the Pen
obscot Indians of Maine; the skiu
eovered tepee of the plains tribe ; the
dome-shaped framework of poles, cov
ered with rush matting, of the Algon
kins; the plank-covered houses of the
Kwakiool of Vancouver Island, and
tlie llaidah of Queen Charlotte Islands
with their symbolical paintings and
totem posts; these range along the
edge of the lagoon on whose waters
iloat various canoes and boats of the
natives. These houses have been liuilt
from proper materials by the Indians
themselves, and most of them are in
habited by families of Indians, some
of whom carry on their native arts and
industries. Very interesting in this
connection will be the series of dances
of the lvwakiools, for which Doctor
lions lias arranged, which will take
place at intervals through the season.

IiOSS OP YOUNG TT'KKEYS.
Young turkeys are difficult to rear
without every convenient provision for
safety from damp and wet. It is best
to house them at night in a long, low
shed, divided into apartments, one for
each brood. Hero they should be fed
ill the morning before they are let out
and iu the evening when driven in be
fore the dews fall. The coops may be
five feet high at the rear and three feet
in the front, with one glazed sash,
hinged, for the door. Entrance will
then be easy to clean the coops and
take in the food. The llocks should
be driven up early and then shut in tho
vard in which the coops are made.
Exposure to ono cold rain will kill
every one of a brood until tho red of
the head and neck, which is a sigu of
full puberty, appears. After that they
are not so tender, but will yet need
care.—New York Times.
PEA VINES AS MANURE.
When a fall crop is taken after pick
ing green peas for market it is a usual
practice to gather the pea vines and
cart them out of the field. They are
often worth more as a fertilizer to be
plowed under just as they are. If a
few seed peas are left ripe enough to
grow, it will be uone the worse for the
future crop. The pea vine is strongly
nitrogenous, and makes a fertilizer
richer than much strawy and fire
fanged stable manure. It has tho fur
ther advantage of being somewhat wet,
as the moisture has not had time to
dry out. We have seen the best crops
of late turnips grown thus, and they
were seemingly not at all injured by
the few pea vines that came up among
them. The pea root gathers nitrogen
from air in the soil, as the clover root
does, and growing it as green manure
adds more to tho fertility of soil than
does any other crop excepting clover.
—Boston Cultivator.
HOW TO MII'K.
It is very important to free the
udder entirely from milk for two rea
sons. The first is that these "strip
pings" will dry up the cow in a very
short time. The other is the fact that
one pint of the milk last drawn con
tains as much butter fat as one quart
of that obtained at the beginning of
the milking. In addition to these
there is the actual loss in the amount
of milk at the time. To show how
considerable this loss is the following
test was recently made: Five cows
were milked for a period of four
weeks by two different persons, both
being competent parties, one of them
doing his average milking and not
aware that an experiment was under
way, the other fully informed as to
the nature of the experiment and ex
pected to contribute his best skill for
the purpose in view. In the case of
the one unaware of the experiment the
yield of milk for the two weeks from
the five cows was B<U pounds. With
no more cows or chance, the man who
was posted got 1131 pounds, or 207
pounds more than the other.—New
York World.
CULTIVATION" 01-' THE ORCHARD.
The opinion of horticulturists differs
widely on the cultivation that should
be given to the orchard. Home believe
that the best results are obtained when
the grass is allowed to grow in the or
chard, while other* recommend a shal
low and frequent loosening cf the soil,
while still others favor a deep plowing
several times during the season. Many
have tried subsoiling before planting
anil some continuing it after, and al
though tile expeust was quite heavy,
they heartily favor that method. Disk
harrowing has been tried in many sec
tions and gooil results have been re
ported in the majority of eases.
Another point on which a difference
of opinion is expressed is where to
plant the orchard, on the low land
bordering a stream or on the upland.
In the Arkansas Valley, those who raise
fruit for the market select the first
bottom for the orchards. The land
there is wi II drained and has a good
sub-irrigation. In other parts of the
State orchurdists, fully as extensive
growers, avoid planting on the lower
ground, beginning their orchards well
up the hillside and continuing to the
summit American Farmer.

FARM AND HARDEN NOTES.
Clematis likes water.
Mulch the sweet peas.
Chilled buttermilk makes a refresh
ing drink.
Tho successful dairyman feeds and
milks the cows regularly.
The temperature of the milk is an
item of first importance.
If you have not started a compost
heap for next year's use, do it now.
The shorter tho silage is cut tho bet
ter. Half an inch or less gives tho
best results.
To got tho most good from bran it
should be fed along with corn and sim
ilar food stuffs.
In raising tomatoes employ those
fertilizers which give up their food ma
terials quickly.
If rains wash off tho insecticide or
fungicide, renew it as quickly as pos
sible after rain ceases.
Top dressing of good manure upon
the timothy field will bo quickly pro
ductive of good results.
If the clover pasture lias dried up
feed the shouts fresh cut corn and keep
pushing them right along.
Don't wait till the grass is wood be
fore you cut it. There is more milk
and butter in early cut grass.
Fairly strong walnut water is re
commended as an excellent wash for
horses troubled with insect pests.
The best animals for the farmer are
those which keep in a good and thrifty
condition with very little difficulty.
Provide slnule, water and succulent
food for the milch cows during a dry
spell, if you would have them do well.
Do not feed tho horses ou an ex
clusively rough ration at this time
of the year, but give a supply of grain
feed.
These scorching days a fresh, fragrant
bouquet is doubly grateful to tho sick
and tho aged; do not neglect or forget
them.
Don't force any more new growth
on plants that are to winter out, but
allow the growth already formed to
ripen.
The man who works with well laid
plans is seldom crowded with work ;
he is in u position to do tho crowding
himself.
Lime greatly stimulates and makes
active the inert elements of the soil,
and makes them available in plant
growth.
All milk utensils are better cleaned
if rinsed with cold or lukewarm water
before scalding water or steam is ap
plied to them.
A perfect Cheddar cheese is one that
luis a clear skin, that is white in color,
solid and lirni in texture, ami that has
a slightly nutty llavor.
A kind master is one who has tho
horse's good will, ami such a man can
get more work out of them than one
who treats them harshly.
Young orchards are very apt to be
injured if not ruined by overbearing.
Young trees need growth. The heavy
crop should come afterwards.
At this time of the year extra teams
are in demand for fat-m work. It is
poor policy to buy them if you cannot
keep them in good condition.
It does not hurt the horse now if he
is allowed to work without shoes.
Unless there is an abundance of rocks,
it is not necessary to have them shod.
l)o not wait too long before cutting
up the corn if you wish the fodder to
be "the best." The sumo warniug is
to be heeded il'you are going to silo it.

NEW FRITIT PRESERVATIVE.
A man who has been working ten
years at a now process for preserving
fruits and vegetables now offers to
housewives the fruit of his labor. It
is in the form of a powder which,
added to water, preserves the fruits by
destroying the germ which causes
ferment. By its use it is claimed that
certain fruits, notably peaches, pre
serve their natural flavor so perfectly
that they may bo served as fresh
fruits. This mysterious powder has
the fantastic power to turn black ber
ries white, while it deepens the hues
of some of the light-colored fruits.
When ready to use a jar of the fruit in
the winter, if preserves are wished, a
syrup is prepared and turned over the
fruit. One hundred and twenty-eight
quarts of fruit may be prepared from a
pound of the powder. New York
Post.
WHEN NOT TO USE EGGS.
Not in rice pudding, which you do
not want to have turned into a cus
tard. The genuine rice pudding is
made rich and creamy by constantly
stirring into it the top skin of tho
milk, as it forms in the baking pan, as
soon as it begins to turn yellow with
the heat. Continue to stir in this top
until the rice is well softened and
tho pudding nearly done. Then you
may let the top brown, and you will
have a perfect pudding when cold-—as
good as ice cream. It needs 110 fla
voring except a little cinnamon, al
though some people like to grate lemon
peal into it. Eggs are not noeded
either in a muffin. Good English muf
fins are made of broad dough softened
to a batter with milk. One egg to a
quart of milk, ilour to make a batter
and a spoonful of baking powder
makes perfect English muffins. Two
eggs upoil it and make it quite another
article.—St. Louis Republic.
EIGHT WAYS OF PREPARING CABBAGE.
The simplest way to prepare cabbage,
writes Clara S. Everts, in Farm, Field
and Fireside, is to make cold-slaw by
shredding it aud adding a little salt,
pepper aud enough sharp vinegar to
almost cover it in wlrtch sugar has
been dissolved in the proportion of a
heaping tablespoonful to a cup of vin
egar. A more elaborate cold-slaw is
made by using a dressing of half a cup
of rich cream, tablespoonful sugar and
half cup of vinegar. Many prefer
sour cream to sweet, but it will require
nearly as much again sugar if sour
cream bo used instead of sweet.
Cabbage Salad—Cut tho cabbage
Hue. Make a dressing by stirring into
a cup of vinegar a well-beaten ogg, a
heaping teaspoonful of small
lump of butter, salt and pepper. When
it boils add a scant tablespoonful of
flour in a third of a cup of milk. Cook
well aud pour over the cabbage. Mix
thoroughly aud set aside until cold.
In winter it will keep nicely for three
or four days. In hot weather if water
is used instead of milk it w ill keep for
two days. Many complain that un
cooked cabbage is hard to digest. In
that case it should be fiuely chopped,
thoroughly salted and allowed to stand
for two or three hours. Then if all
the water arising is carefully squeezed
out before the dressing ia added it will
be as digestible as the cooked.
Creamed Cabbage—Chop, add boil
ing water till it shows through the
cabbage, but is not quite covered, salt,
pepper and cover closely. Cook till
tender, stirring now aud then. Add
more water if necessary and when done
add a small lump of butter aud half a
cup of milk in which a tablespoonful
of flour has been smoothed. Cook
two or three minutes longer and serve
hot.
Fried Cabbage—Chop moderately
fine and putin a frying pan in which
is a tablespoonful of hot butter and
one of meat drippings. Salt, pepper
and cover closely, stirring often to
prevent scorching. When delicately
browned add a little water audsimuier
until done.
Boilod Cabbage—Soft or coarse
heads of cabbage that seem hardly tit
for use may bo boiled and prove very
nice. Cut iu quarters, remove the
heart aud boil with a meat bone, or
add to the water enough soup stock to
give the desired richness. It should
be almost covered with water when be
ginning to cook aud ought to boil
from an hour to an hour and a half.
Serve iu side dishes, iu which it is cut
up and vinegar added to suit the taste.
linked Cabbage Take a small firm
head aud with a sharp knife cut out
the heart, without otherwise cutting
the cabbage. Crumble u sufficient
amount of bread, add salt, pepper aud
butter and moisten with boiling water
and fill the cavity with this. Place iu
a baking dish with a piut of well
halted boiling water and a good sized
lump of butter. Cover and bake for
an hour or two. Just before serving
remove the cover and brown a little.

ABSOLUTELY PURE .
Alaska Fisli.
In this modern tiny of Government
schools, rendy-mado clothing, and
two-dollars-a-day wages, almost the
only picturesqueness left to native lift"
is during the salmon runs. Families
and tribes betake themselves to their
hereditary fishing grounds to catch
and dry their salmon for winter use,
and isolated summer camps break the
forested shore-line with fine effect,
A row of black canoes on the beach, a
cluster of bark or matted tents, with
frames of drying salmon overhanging
the camp-fires, are set between some
clear still green water foreground and
an abrupt screen of greenest men/.ie
or mcrton spruces. The racks of fish
give touches of high color to the
scene, as the further north they are
caught the redder the Pacific salmon
are; and in Lynu Canal some of these
camps look as if decorated with red
bunting. All is salmon that comes to
the Tingit, and he makes no distinc
tion between king, red, silver, hump
back, or dog salmon, rather preferring,
on the whole, the coarse, rank
of the last, which 110 white man wants;
hence he rages at the cannery's waste
and the destruction of his chief food
supply. Since the corrupting touch
of trade hascven reached their salmon
streams, the natives now make per
manent summer villages beside the
canneries. The men work for the
company, and the women and children
do a little independent fishing, but
more regularly follow the cannery
scows and fill their canoes with re
jected salmon, as canners use only
about a third of all tisli seized. Thus,
in midsummer, Alaska villages are as
empty of their first families as any
Eastern city, and the tourists see
closed houses, and not a third of the
regular inhabitants. Census enumer
ators work zealously, but vainly, in
attempting to count the natives when
they are scattered in remotest nooks
all over the archipelago, half of them
paddling their canoes from one place
to another, and as likrly to be counted
twice as not at all during the summer.
The white man's fisheries are more
prosaic, less fragrant, and never
picturesque in themselves. One finds
the canneries in the furthest nooks
and niches of the archipelago, each
with a finer landseajx' setting than the
last. There is always a mountain
background and a clear brawling
stream coming from the dense forest.
—Harper's Weekly.
The Vision a! lUrtls,
Birds have very acute vision, per
haps the most acute of any creature,
and the sense is also more widely dif
fused over the retina than is the ease
with man; consequently a bird can
see sideways as well as objects in front
of it. A bird sees—showing great un
easiness in consequent'! a hawk long
before it is visible toman. So. too,
fowls and pigeons find minute scraps
of food, distinguishing t item from what
appear to us exactly similar pieces of
earth or gravel.
Young cliie'.teus are also able to find
their own food —knowing its position
and how distant it is .is soon as they
are hatched, whereas a child ouly very
gradually learns either to see or to un
derstand the distance of objects. Sev
eral birds—apparently the young of
all those that nest oil the ground can
see quite well directly they come out
of the shell, but the young of birds
that nest in trees or on rocks are born
liliml and have to be fed.—Chambers's
Journal.

Sew Jersey's Kitrieil Forests*
A piece of contemporary geology is
being worked in New Jersey. The
whole coast line has been long sink
ing, and the process is still going on.
A curious industry is carried on in the
southern part of the State- -the mining
for cetlar. Some of these noble trees
exhumed from their swainpv burial
exceed three feet in diameter, with tho
timber perfectly sound. The "lay"
of these uprooted trees indicates the
devastation, probably, of extraor
dinary cyclones, occurring at immenso
intervals of time, thus leveling one
forest upon another that had been
thrown down long before. The cedars
growing there to-day send their roots
among their long-buried ancestors.
The rings upon tho exhumed trees
show a growth of 15',1d, or possibly
*2OOO years, and tlui existence of at
least two buried forests below tho
present, growth is indisputable.—
