Kansas Wolf Bounties. Owing to the losson evory year of sr» many sheep, pigs, calves and fowls from depredations by wolves, coyotes, wildcats and foxes, tho Kansas Im proved Stock Breeders at their annual meeting in January, appointed a com mittee to work for such legislation as would authorize a higher bounty, at least for wolf scalps —the amended law of 1889 authorizing county commis sioners to pay not to exceed for each soalp. To aid the committee, at least to the extent of knowing definite ly what has boen done under the new taw, Seoretary Cobnrn, of the State Board of Agriculture, has interviewed each one of the county clerks in tho State as to the amount expended liy his county in each of tho four years mentioned toward tho extermination of the predatory prowlers. From the 105 counties ninety-six reports were received; nine counties Failed or declined to report. Seventy three paid and twenty-three did not pay bounties. In 1890 fifty-two coun ties paid $11,910 ; in 1891 fifty-eight counties paid $15,233; in 189'i, fifty seven counties paid $14,931, and in 1893, sixty-five counties paid 317,594. The total amount paid in the four years by seventy-threo counties is $59,668. - The foregoing figures include the bounties paid on a few fox, wildcat and rabbit scalps, but in tho main rep resent wolves or coyotes. In the vari ous counties tho amounts per scalp have been fifty cents for cubs and from ono to three dollars for grown wolves. Secretary Coburu says that the asses sors last year reported 157,000 dogs in tho State, and he thinks if these wore what they ought to bo and used to tho best advantage, there would be less need to pay bounties and fewer varmints on which to pay them.— Farm, Field and Fireside. How Chinese Bo Things. The men wear skirts and the women trousers. The men wear their hair long and the women wear it short. The men carry on dressmaking and the women carry burdens. The Chinese begin dinner with des- Hert and end with soup and fish. The Chinese compass points to the south instead of tho north. The Chinese launch their vessels sideways and mount their horses from the off side. Books are read backward, and what we call footnotes are inserted at the top of the page. The Chinese surname comes first instead of last. The Chinese shake their own hands (instead of the hands of those they would greet. The written language of China is tjot written and the written language is not spoken. The Chinese dress in white at funer als and in mourning at weddings, while old women always serve asbridemaids. •—New York Advertiser. Time anil Season.

The best ear marks for sheep are the metal nickel plated loops, upon which are stamped the owner's name and the numbers of the sheep. To distinguish the ewes from the other sheep they may be marked in the right ear, the others in the left. An easy way to further distinguish any special sheep is to put tho marks in perpendicularly in the ears, the others being putin horizontally. The numbers are used in the record book of those sheep that are so desired to be distinguished.— New York Times. THE PERFECT FARM HORSE. The perfect farm horse has not been developed yet, and it is prob able that there may not be entire con currence in the ideal drawn. This summary of its accomplishments, how ever, is not beyond attainment. It must have the size and strength to draw a plow with ease ; the style and action necessary to make a trip to market and back in the least possible time ; of a docile disposition, but not to the detraction of nerve, a most necessary qualification of a good farm horse; and, lastly, it must be such a horse as can successfully meet compe tition in the sale ring,—New York World. TREE PLANTING. Mr. N. Ohmer, the well known hor ticulturist of Dayton, Ohio, recently made the following statement with re gard to tree planting before the stu dents of the School of Agriculture of the Ohio State University : "I give special attention to plant ing. I consider this matter of plant ing a very important one. It is really very much neglected. I set my trees a little deeper in the orchard than they stand in the nursery. I dig holes for setting twelve or fifteen inches deep, and when I come to the cultivation of my trees I throw the earth toward them. In preparing the trees for planting, I cut off all bruised or muti lated roots. In the peach tree, I cut the top also, in order to give the tree proper shape, otherwise you will have long branches that will break beneath the weight of the fruit. If your tree has good rook, you need have no fear that the cutting of the top will injure it." "Havo you a plan for keeping your 1 trees in line in planting?" "I have always exercised great care in setting my trees to havo them well arranged. I use a very simple device of my own. Under proper arrange ment the orchards look better, audi think do better, when arranged in regular order." POULTRY FOB RUN-DOWN FARMS. New England has always used the raw material of other States anil man ufactured goods of all kinds in which her people have excelled. With fewer advantages as an agricultural country, yet she excels in yield, in proportion ! to area cultivated, in many crops that I are grown extensively elsewhere, j Massachusetts produces more corn per acre than any other State, but it pays her people better to grow articles that bring the highest prices in market. 80 far as pure breeds of poultry are concerned, New England leads all other : sections, and she derives an enormous i sum from that source alone, while her ' farmers also get tho best prices for dressed carcasses and eggs. Of late years it has been largely ad vertised that many farms in some sec ■ tions of Now Euglund no longer pay, and that their owners have ceased to ! take an interest in them, even going so far as to abandon them in cases that have been noticed. The cause assigned is that farm products are grown so cheaply in the AVest that our farmers cannot compete with the West ern farmers, liut our farmers can use the cheap foods, however, and change , them iuto more salable products. It may be mentioned that HO fur as the quality of the soil is concerned, poul try cau be made a specialty ou the ; poorest or the best, aud the frozen j Block of the West hus never interfered with prices in the East. Strictly fresh, nearby eggs and choice carcasses can not be brought Last, while consumers will not discard the good for the in ferior.—Mirror and Farmer. CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 1 Who doesn't love chrysanthemum*? Yet comparatively few raise them, the re&ttou usually given beiug that they are too much trouble. Man;- others, j U'>t knowing that they can lie rained 1 front seed, thinking the plauts must be purchased from « florist, do not raise them on account of the expense. < >ne nice way to manage them is to , tit a lot of egg-shell* into a box, till ' the shell* with sandy soil, and in each one plant a seed, covering them to a depth equal ti> about twice tho thick ness of the seed.

Then when brought into the housa they should be kept ns cool as possible not to freeze. Some persons do not HOW the seed until the season is so far advanced that they may be sown in open gronnd. They grow all summer where sown, but are potted early in the fall, being trimmed back at that time. They do not bloom quite so early as where the seed is sown earlier, and the plants not disturbed by fall potting, but some as fine blossoms as I ever saw have been grown on plants so treated.— Farm, Field and Fireside. THE FARMER'S GARDEN. It is probably true that farm gar dens, vegetable and fruit gardens, will bo more generally cultivated this year than ever before, for the reason that wo are daily learning more of the re quirements of life and discover them only in a well supplied table, and that the latter is found only where the kitchen garden affords the necessary material. Man is not altogether a meat eater; indeed we have learned that with fresh vegetables and fruits from a properly conducted garden with cream and butter and eggs he is much bet ter oft and likely to enjoy better health than with more meat. Less meat and pastry, loss high living and a nearer approach to nature's own health giving products will nour ish and sustain the animal economy with less irritation of the mental and physical systems, less indigestion and constipation and a heartier, happier tone generally. A good sized two acres near to the house should be laid off, thoroughly plowed, well manured and putin the finest possible tilth. Then determine what vegetables you want for spring, summer, autum and winter use. Take a piece of blank paper, make a map showing where the roads through it are to be, then where this that and the other thing is to bo planted. Goose berry, currant and raspberry bushes may be planted in straight rows only from end to end, so as not to interfere with the plow; but they should be, if possible, near the road and pathways or along under the fences. Deep cultivation, perfect tillage and thorough manuring with stable or bnrn yard manure arc the main requi sites to success. Take, then, one of the great seed catalogues and select what seed you want for the first year. If you are short of help select fewer va rieties, but have them so as to supply a continuous variety from the earliest spring till frost comes, and eveu then have a store of such as will keep through the winter. The American farmer should be the best fed man in the world, princes and kings not ex cepted ; and he will be if he only lays himself out to produce for his own table fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh milk, butter, eggs and poultry, and fresh meat when it may be convenient ly had. The beautifully gotten up seed catalogues published by our ad vertisers for gratuitous distribution should be in every farmhouse in the country and be freely and fully con sulted. They not only remind one of the varieties needed, but, as a rule, tell how they are to be cultivated so as to insure the best results. The making of the garden and the planting thereof may come just when all hands and horses are wanted for other work, but better employ extra help to mako it than not have a garden at all. It should be so planted as to admit of horso cultivation, —Column's Kural World. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. A good horse is often spoiled by be ing worked with a balky one. It is in working the butter that the fine art of butter-making comes in. Eggs from pullets are not apt to hatch as well as those from adult fowls. In every country school agriculture, horticulture and dairying should be taught. Poultry powders are rarely required for tlocks that are fed ami eared for properly. The secret in growing largo and tine chickens is to feed often and but little at a time. There is a better market for small cheeses than for those weighing forty or fifty pounds. Propel care and feeding are even more necessary than breeding for early maturity of stock. Ducks begin to lay at an early age and require liberal feeding to sustain the drain on their system. It rarely happens that two breeds of chicken* or turkeys can be kept on a farm without getting mixed. From one to three year* is the profit able age of a hen, ami unless she has particular merit as a layer should not lie allowed to live longer. Little ducks require almost twice as much food as chicks, but they grow very rapidly. They should be fed four tun. » a day and given all they will eat It i» mid that uurcudcrel beef tal low ('bopped into Tory small pieces and mixed in tin- feed for two or three davn Mill put a line gloss on the plum a»<" of show birds.

The best way of removing the white Spots canned by water drops on erepe is an exceedingly simple one. Lay the crepe on a table with a piece of black silk beneath it. Dip a camel's hair brash in ordinary ink and go over the stain. Wipe the ink off with a soft piece of silk. The stain will dis appear as soon as the ink dries.—New York Journal. TO DRAIN THE DISHES. An appliance that will at once recom mend itself as a useful accessory to the kitchen is a table grooved and inclined bo thut all the water upon it drains to an outlet at the front into the basin in which the articles have beon washed, and which is placed under the outlet. A great many plates, cups, saucers, jugs, decanters and such ware can be drained at the same time. By a bar, which is fitted across the table, all articles placed in the rack are held quite securely, without possibility of slipping. It is made entirely of wood, so that no part will rust, and the ware placed upon it is not liable to be chipped. The rack, legs and all parts can be folded up into a very small space, and quite flat, without the least trouble, so it takes up little room when not in use, andean be hung upon the wall if desired.—New York Ad vertiser. KEEPING HOUSEHOLD ACCOUNTS. To one who has never kept an ac count of the expenses and income of the house it may seem like quite an undertaking, bat when it is once be gun, one gets so interested in it that it becomes easy. There is such satis faction in knowing just what the fam ily expenses are and what proportion of them we have paid by our own ef forts. To begin, provide yourself with a firmly bound blank book, not too small; twelve inches long by eight wide is a convenient size. It will cost less than fifty cents. Select one ruled for single entry bookkeeping, as this will give more room on a page of the size named. Begin a new page each month for both dry goods and groceries, and if you have a large credit account use a separate page for that. I usually make one page do for dry goods and credit by marking a divided line across the page near the middle and using the lower half for credit. Write at the head of each page the name of the month of the year, and the words "Groceries, etc.," and ''Dry Goods, etc.," across the pages intended for those entries. Let the "etc." stand for things that are neither one nor the other, but. which for convenience may be set down with them, BUch as things bought for the kitchen in the way of cooking utensils, dishes, and such articles. The dry goods page may also hold entries of furniture, of all kinds of books and papers and such things. Date each entry Ht the left hand and place tho amount paid iu the space provided for it at the right. At the end of each month add the amounts up and set down under their respective columns, and at the end of the year it will bo only necessary to look at these figures to see what the expenses for the year have been. Keep the credit account as carefully and foot up each month's credit separately. This account will consist of all income from the cows and the poultry, an J from any other source which is under the management of the women of the household. To avoid the necessity of going to the book each time an entry is neces sary, make a "day book" of a common school tablet. Tack it to the kitchen wall, keep a calendar just above it and a pencil hanging beside it. Only a moment is required to set down nn item, and the leaf may be torn off and "posted up" on the book each even ing, or as often as necessary.—Farm, Field and Fireside. BECU'ES.

In the style of dressing the hair there is a tendency to loosen the front, wave it over the ears, and fasten it into a bunch of curls, which must be tied with a watered ribbon at the back. Gray hair has become so fashionable that whatever the color may be the latest fad, is to wear one little curl of gray at the side of the forehead. The Empress Elizabeth, of Austria, by a severe system of fasting and ex ercise, massage, and training like a sporting man, succeeds in keeping her waist measure to twenty inches, in spite of her fifty-six years. And there are some foolish persons in the world who will think that a Queen might have a rather more laudable ambition than this. Zara M.

"And not only that, but the iron bridge over the river and the railroads reaching Atchison from the East are pretty sure to be cut off, too. For several years the river has been cntting away the bank above the railroads on the Missouri side to such an extent that two or three thousand acres of land have been carried away, as well as a good deal of the site of East Atchison. The Government spent $75,000 i n pro tecting the bank, but the work was improperly done, and last June a freshet came along and swept all the improvements out. Since then the river has resumed its warfare, and several valuable farms have been washed away. This year since the river began to rise the bank has been caving in at an alarming rate. Origi nally the shore lino was over a mile from the railroad tracks; now it is less than a hundred yards, and the rail road men aro ready to tear up the tracks at the shortest possible notice.

C. H. Harris, whose ad dress is No. 1,622 Second Avenue, Rock Island, 111. The following extract from a let ter written by Mr. Harris explains the mar velous change in his personal appearance. He writes : " Dr. Pierce's Golden Mistical Dis covery saved my life and has made me a man. My home physician says lam good for forty years yet. You will remember that I was just between life and death, and all of my friends were sure it was a case of death, until I commenced taking a second bottle of 1 Golden Medical Discovery,' when I became able to sit up and the cough was very much better, and the bleeding from my lungs stopped, and before I had taken six bottles of the ' Golden Medical Discovery' my cough ceased and I was a new man and ready for business. I now feel that it is a duty that I owe to my fellcw-men to recommend to them the ' Golden Mtdical Discovery ' which saved my life when doctors and all other medicines failed to do me any good. I send to you witn this letter two of my photographs; ono taken a few weeks before I was taken down sick in l>cd, and the other was taken after I was well." These two pho tographs are faithfully re-produced at the head of this article. Mr. Harris's experience in the use of " Gold en Medical Discovery" is not on exceptional one. Thousands of eminent people in all parts of the world testify, in just as emphatic language, to its marvelous curative powers oyer all chronic bronchial, throat and lung diseases, chronic nasal catarrh, asthma, and kindred diseases.

Then, also, every house of every sort, including a valuable pork packing plant in East Atchison, will be swept away. Should the worst happen, sl,- 500,000 would not cover the loss. Only Providence can prevent the river cutting through, as the river is too high now to admit of work being done, even if there was plenty of money at hand to do it. The rail roads I spoke of as being in danger are the Kansas City, St. Joe Council Bluffs, the Missouri Pacific, the Atchison, Topeka .t Saute Fe, the Hannibal .t St. Joe and the Rock Tsl aud.

Truly, your friend, Mr. Dulaney's address is Campbell, Ohio. " I had catarrh in the head for years and trouble with my left lung at the saino time. You put so much faith in your remedies that I concluded to try ono buttle or two, and I derived much benefit therefrom. I used up three bottles of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, five bottles of your " Golden Medical Discov ery," and in four months I was myself again. I could not sleep on my left side, and now I can sleep and oat heartily. So long as I havo your medicines on hand I have no need of a doctor ; I do not think my house in order without Aetn.
