The CoinrrMtmnii'* Salary. "Although a Congressman Rot? hbout 81:).50 ft day ill til" way of Mili ary," naiil nu old-time House attache, "there arr a great many men in the lower branch of Congress who are al ways short of mouey. a num ber spend their income recklessly, l>nt a great many liavo legitimate domestic expenses that run f>o close to tlio amount of their salary that they have lianl picking at times to get along. A considerable number of members din count their salariea at the banks. They are charged something like 8} per cent., and if the total of this ac count were made public, it would make a remarkable showing, ft is by uo jvuvns the new or younger mem bers who are oftenest short before sal ury day comes around. Many of th j cider members, who have sat, in t'ie House for years, are in this predica ment quite frequently. Many of them art? men of irreproachable habits, b-it with large and expensive families to support and with heavy political ob ligations at home forming a constant drain on their exchequer which they oannot get rid of. I learn that there is quite a little unexpended balance remaining unclaimed of the appro priation to pay mileage for the extra session. This is duo to the fact that there are members so conscientious that they think they have no moral right to touch that money and have never claimed it. A number of these are nleu who actually need the mouey, but they are too scrupulously honest to demand it, although its expenditure was authorized by House and Senate." —Washington Post. I Highest Windmill in the WorM. A windmill of somewhat remarkable proportions, and placed upon a tower which is said to be the highest ever erected for that purpose, lias been put up by A. J. Corcoran upon the prop erty of Prescott Hall Butler, at St. James, Long Island. Several wind mills of equal power had been previ ously erected by Mr. Corcoran, bnt upon towers not exceeding 125 feet high, while the present tower is 190 feet high. This was done because the spring from which it was desired to primp water was upon the beach and at times covered by the tide, the ground rising rapidly from this point, so that it was necessary to raise the wheel to a very considerable height in order that it might be above all ob structions within 1000 feet from it. Twenty barrels of concrete, forty bar rels of cement, 20,000 bricks, 42,000 feet of Georgia pine and more than six tons of bolts, washers and iron plates were used in its construction. The mill that surmounts this tower is 22 J feet in diameter and pumps water •through 6000 feet of pipe to a height of 223 feet. It delivers water to a reservoir of a capacity for fi5,000 gal lons, which it has filled in two days.

One dollar a year will sup ply the hen with ample food, and less if the wastes of the house aro kept for them. At ten cents a dozeu, the hen pays for her feed and she will rear a brood of ten or twelve chicks. This is a safe basis for figuring in tho poultry business when the person is careful and experienced.—New York Times. DEGIN WITH CALVES. A cattle feeder insists that as a prep oration to the desired end—the pro duction of cattle large and fat at tho least expense —feeding should begin with tho calves. They should be taught to eat while they aro drinking milk. Keep oats in a trough near by for this purpose. Their future growth depends largely upon the care given the first year. After they are weaned continue to give them oats chopped on grouud feed, have them well housed in cold weather, and keep them in good growing condition all winter. Yearling calves aro more easily win tered. but they should have the same sort of regimen and care. It takes no more feed, when properly aud regu larly given, to keep the calves fat all their lives than to half do it. Then they can be fitted for market, if de sired, in a short time. —Chicago Times. PLANTING STRAWBERRIES. Tn the majority of cases, the spring of the year is the best season for plant ing strawberries. When the plants aro received from the nursery, they should be unpacked at once and spread out in a cellar, to prevent heating, and in planting tho roots should not be exposed to the sun or air. The ground should be free from weeds, and well fertilized. The rows may be thirty inches apart, plants one foot apart iu the row. They need to bo frequently cultivated to keep down all weeds, which aro the strawberry grower's greatest enemy. In the autumn, after the ground lias become firmly frozen, the plants should be covered with leaves, clean straw, or corn fodder. Stable manure should not be used on these beds, because full of seeds. Strawberry beds should bo renewed every two or three years if the best fruit is desired. —American Agricul turist. BEAN'S AXD PEAR. There is need in our farming rota lion to use more fully the leguminous plants, such as clover, peas, beans, lupines, etc. These plauts not only furnish with hay and corn a more complete ration for fecdingstock than hay and corn alone, but they also furnish a means of improving the land in a manner that can not be done without them except by buying ex pensive fertilizers. There is nothing that furnishes a better preparation for a good crop of corn or potatoes or almost any other crop than a clover sod; where land is too poor to start clover it must be enriched either by manuring or by green manuring with lupines and vetches, which will thrive on poorer laud than clover. Peas and beans are grown largely by our market farmers for selling green, aud any surplus is often dried and threshed ; but a 1 .rge part of the supply of dried beans and peas used in our city markets comes from Cana da and various European countries where the culture of these crops is better understood thau here. The climate of our Northern States is well adapted to growing these crops, and there is no good reason why our farm ers cannot grow at a profit a large part of the million and a half of dollars' worth of these crops now imported. One drawback to the successful grow ing of beans of late years is the blight or rust which attacks the leaves an I pods and seriously damages the crop in many eases. It is now well under stood that this disease is caused by a par sitic fungus and can bo success lully warded off by spraying with Bordeaux mixture. There is danger that "Boston baked beaus" may have to be called by some other name if we have to import our supply of them. Rally, then, all ye patriotic farmers, and save us from each humiliation! The use of peas as a field crop sown with oats and harvested either in the green state for fodder or made into hay, later, is increasing in New Eiij<- laud and deserves to iucreate still more. There are few crops that will give better satisfaction in the long run, we believe, than these ou the duiry fariu. There ore also many farms at a dis tance from market where the xroxviiiH of peon and beans to be threshed ami sold dry would prove an important addition to the marketable products aud a valuable addition to the farm rotation.

Whether a or small amouut of milk or butter is sold from the farm in a year, one is seldom satisfied with the price that is paid for it, writes |>. S. Iliirdin in tho American Axrtcullu rist.

H1.1.U , « piece of board, as is cften seen, that has been used in tho dairy for many seasons to cover tho pans of milk, will deaden the crc-am as fas* as it rises on the surface of the milk, so that good butter cannot be made of it. An old churn that smells strong from ago will rob tho butter of half its value. Milk as it comes from the cow is rich in high flavors, bnt of an exceeding perishable nature. To hold those flavors, everything with which it comos in contact must be as cool and clean and fresh as possible up to tho timo the bargain is struck with the mer chant. Tho first necessity is that the stables are clean, with no smell of rotting manure about them. Then use nicely scoured tin buckets to milk in. Hurry the milk out of the stable, or away from the cows, and set it immediately fo* creaming in cans or pans that aro ««rfectlv clean, and covered not with \*uo<7, but with sheets of scoured tin. The can that holds the cream must bo scalded in hot water every time it is emptied, so that no particle of the old hatch can get into the new. No churn should be used more than two seasons, unless made of metal or kept immacu lately clean. In this respect the churn is the most dangerous of all the dairy utensils, and must be aired as much as possible up to the point of cracking it with too much drying out. Let tho sun shine into it often. While noono should ever pilt the bare handsto but ter, it must be manipulated. To do this, tho best implements are two fiat paddles, made of hard wood. The table on which the butter is worked is easily kept clean, aud should also be made of hard wood. But the point of fatal error with many farmers' wives is that they will not pack and market the butter in tho best shape to get good prices for it. The trouble usually comes from iv.pking the butter at odd times, and having no regular time for taking it to town, intoad of first de termining on what days of the month shipments can be made, and then reg ulate everything to that end. Butter should always be delivered within two weeks of the time the milk catno from the cow ; oftener if possible. Cream cau be held from four to six days, de pending on how cold it is kept and how sweet it was when taken from tho milk. Never let it get too old, or all your hopes for good quality and high price will be crushed. The farm output of butter will hard ly be large enough to warrant using tho ordinary butter tubs, and that is not the best shape to sell farm butter. By all means put it into one pound or two pound cakes, and press ridges across the top of each pat with tho paddle. Now, for a bit of enterprise, get some of the paraffin paper to wrap the priuts in, or use cheesecloth. Do not use old cloth*, even though thor oughly clean. What you buy for this purpose will not cost a quarter of a cent to the pound of butter, while it will add several cents to tho market value of each pound. A little noat uess iu this regard sharpens tho appe tite of the buyer. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Disbudding is generally better than rubbing oIY small fruits later. One of the best ways of increasing the appetite of a horse is to change his diet. While good breeding will not of it self Hell a bad individual for a good price, it is a wonderful help with good ones. It is said ou good authority that oats cut and cured when the seed is in the milk stage aro excellent feed for milch cows. Good individuality in a horso will always sell, and where it is coinbine.l with speed aud breeding it will sell for good prices. Many farmers do not know that trees can bo starved as well as stock. It is not enough to plant an orchard, you must care for it. Horse-breeding is profitable to those who cater to the wants of their local markets instead of trying to raise stock to suit themselves. Not many hotne growers know how much satisfaction cau be found in even a small frame of lettuce and radishes. These Vegetables are easily forced. For oats, rve and grass nitrate of soda applied just as the growth begins in spring is very beneficial; 300 to -400 pouuds per acre should lie applied. Quinine, judiciously administered, is a great remedy for a horse seized with a sudden cold or fever It is eipially eflioacious for man, horse or dog. Large-combed fowls are the better layers.

Kalsomining, or wall coloring in distemper, is best done when walls are not too cold or too hot. It may fio done any time during tho winter, so that the walls do not freeze. There lire a good many preparations put up for this purpose and called l»y various names. However, if you are where you cannot procure this, it may bo prepared in the following manner: White—To ten pounds of best whiting nse lj pounds of white glue, half a pound alum and a little ultramarine i>lue. Put the glue in cold water, sot it on the fire and stir until dissolved. Put a half a gallon of hot water over the whiting, and when dissolved add the glue, the blue and the alum, which must also bo dissolved in hot water. Stir the mixture well and run through a sieve. For lirst coating this may bo used while hot, but the other coats must be cold. If your color works too stiff, a little soap will help. All colors and shades are made by adding the dry colors. Before kalsomining, the cracks and nail holes should be tilled with plaster of paris. Mix this with paste, and it will not dry so quickly. If you have a good brush and work as quickly as possiblo to avoid laps, you will have a good job of kalsomiuiug. A nice stencil border run around the top of tho wall makes a iieat finish. SALADS IS SEASON. Bocf Snlftil, With Tomatoes—Scallop or trim ia slices some colli boiled or braised beef; pare the pieces round shaped, and season with salt, pepper, oil and vinegar; also very fiucly cut up chervil and chives; lay all on a plate or salad bowl, giving it a dome shape, and garnish around the salad with peeled and quartered tomatoes. Asparagus Salad—Cut tho tender parts of asparagus into pieces of equal length and tie them in bunches; tlien cook them in salted water and leave them to get cold. A few minutes be fore serving mix them in a bowl with a third of their quantity of pared crawfish tails; season with salt and pepper; rub through a sieve the yolks of six hard boiled eggs, dilute this with oil and vinegar, and potir over this sauce the asparagus and crawfish ; then arrange the salad symmetrically in a salad bowl aud add the seasoning to it. Herring Salad With Potatoes—Wash four salted herrings, soak them in milk for several hours, then drain anil dry them ; remove the fillets and cut them into half inch squares ; cut into three-eighths inch squares, eight ounces of cooked potatoes; add a four ounce apple, peeled and cored, then mince very fine half a pound of roasted veal, cut in quarter inch squares, a lour ounce pickled beetroot, cut in three-sixteenth ineh squares and four ounces of salt cucumbers, cut equally into quarter ineh squares. Put into a salad bowl the potatoes, herrings, apples and veal; season with oil and vinegar, a little hot water and broth, salt, pepper, mnstard, and some chopped chives, all well mixed; smooth the surface with a knife, aud decorate it with auchovy fillets,piekled led cucumbers, beets, capers, pickled cherries, and the yolks and whites of hard boiled eggs, chopped very fine; also some chopped parsley. Chicken Sala 1, American Style - Cook a four pound chicken in some stock ; the time allowed for this varies considerably according to the age of the chicken, but tho usual length of time is about two hours. When the chicken is done put it into a vessel; pour its own broth over it an 1 let it cool therein ; remove it and begin by lifting oil' all the skin and white parts from the breasts; cut tho meat into dice from five to six eighths of an inch, and lay them in a bow], seasoning with salt, pepper, oil and vinegar. Chicken salad may bo prjpare.l either writh lettuce or celery, tho latter being generally preferred. Cliooso fine white celery, wash it well, drain and cut it across in one-eighth of au inch thick pieces or else in Julienne; dry them in a cloth to absorb all of tho water remaining iu them. Put at the bottom of a salad bowl intended for tho table some salt, pepper, oil aud vinegar ; mustard can be nd led, if desired; mix the seasoning in with tho celery.

There were a number of fltio vocalists in tho first, or senior class, and excellent "soloists" on the vio lin, guitar and banjo. Tho baujoist especially was a born minstrel, and could doubtloss havo douo well in pro fessional burnt cork. But cadet songs wcro few in num ber. "Benny Havens O" was tho only ono heard in those days. We sang tho army songs, "When This Cruel War is Ovor," "Red, White and Blue," "Rally Round the Flag," "Kingdom Coming," and later "Tramp, Tramp" and Millard's stir riug "Flag of the Free," as tho war drew to its close. What seemed to be needed was a new cadet song. Plebes had to contribute to the general amusement then as they do now, and oue evening in camp a young fellow from tho Mississippi Valley gave us a song, with a catch ing air and chorus, he called "Ora Lee." I afterward know a Mississppi steamer to have tho same name, but never met any one else who sang or knew the song. Tho chorus ran : Ora TI«o, Ora LOP, maid of golden hair ; Sunshine c:vmo along with thoo aud swal lows iu tho air.

The 'girl, hearing that the villagers really intended to deliver her to them iu order to get rid of their barbarities, hid herself, and at night succeeded in making her way, with her brother, toward Russian territory. When the Kurds heard of this escape they followed them,and overtook them in the mountains. The brother and sister defended themselves from be hind a rock until they had fired all their cartridges but two. Tho sister then threw herself into the arms of her brother, and l>egged him to shoot her with one of tho cartridges, so that she might not fall into the hands of tho Kurds, nor see the death of her broth er, and that with tho second ho should deliver himself also from the hands oi tho Kurds. This was done. The sister was killed, but tho brother was taken half dead and delivered to the Turkish authorities, and is now iu prison." I'roap Said to ISo Contagious. Bacteriologist Herman M.
