    The CoinrrMtmnii'* Salary.
"Although a Congressman Rot?

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."

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.

TOST OF FEEDING POULTRT.
A well-fed hen should lay ten dozen
eggs in a year. Home will do better
than this. 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. Massachusetts I'lougbui »w.

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

KAI.SOMININ'O.
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. Lay the pieces of chicken
on top and cover the whole with a
layer of mayonuaise saitoe; decorate
the surface with quartered hard boile I
eggs, anchovy fillets, olives, capers
and beets; place some lettuce leaves
around ami a fine lettuce heart iu tho
center.
Japanese Salad—Cook some peeled
potatoes in broth, cut two pounds of
them in slices while still warm ami
season them with salt, pepper, olive
oil, ■'iuogar, elievil chives, ttrr.t{ou,

Tho "cadet band" during tho sum
mer of 18«»4 was an unusually good
ono. 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 whole corps took it up before
many days, but no ono fancied it
more than our banjoist, "Pomp,"who
oue evening soon afterward favored
the camp with new words to the air o/
"Ora Lee," beginning:
We'vo not much longer horo to stiy.
(Inly a month or two;
When we'll throw our old gray clothes
away,
Aud dou the army blue.
Chorus.
Army blue, army blue, we'll don tho army
blue.
We'll bid farewell to eadet gray and don the
army blue.
Then the band learned it as a march
ing tuue, and at the "last parade" of
the class of '65 in the following June,
played it as the graduating quickstep
for the first time, in place of the old,
"I See Them on Their Winding Way"
and"The Dashing AVhite Sergoant.
"Ora Lee," as a s»tig, seems to havo
been lost entirely. "Army Blue" is
known all over the United States.—

A correspondent of the London News
gives the following story : "Tho Ham
idio Kurds fell on Herfev, an Arme
nian village, and asked that the beau
tiful daughter of the priest lie deliv
ered to them. 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."

Bacteriologist Herman M. Biggs
made 11 report to the Health Board of
New York City of the result of the
bacteriological examination into iJtIS
eases of so-called membranous croup.
He said: "The observations which
have been made, I believe, justified
this department in considering so
called membranous croup as laryngeal
diphtheria." He recommended, there
fore, that membranous croup be in
clude 1 in the list of contagious dis
eases concerning which reports are
required from physicians. The recom

ASIDE from the fact that the
l cheap baking powders contain
alum, which causes indigestion and
other serious ailments, their use is
extravagant.
It takes three pounds of the best
of them togo as far as one pound
of the Royal Baking Powder, be
cause they are deficient in leavening
gas.
There is both health and econ
omy in the use of the Royal Baking
Powder.

riimsoll's Mark.
The next time you get near one of
the bij? ocenn greyhounds, or, in fact,
any of tha ocean going craft, look
along her side just above the water
line and about the center you will see
u peculiar mark which looks as though
it might have been made by an inebri
ated cobra. This is known as "Plirn
soll's mark." Load a ship bo that this
is below water, and if she sinks you
can collect no insurance. It is the
danger mark. It is an outcome of ma
rine insurance, and the regulation has
undoubtedly saved many million dol
lars' worth of property and many
lives. Weighted below it a vessel is
loggy and unbuoyant; in a storm she
could not ride the waves easily, and
would be likely to founder. The
Plimsoll mark is simply a bisected cir
cle ; to the left are the private Lloyd
measurements and marks. In Eng
land these are regarded very closely ;
in America we are more lax.—Now

What They Are For
Biliousness indigestion sallow skir.
dyspepsia bad taste in the mouth pimples
sick headache foul breath torpid liver
bilious headache loss of appetite depression of spirits
when these conditions are caused by constipation ; and con
stipation is the most frequent cause of all of them.
One of the most important things for everybody to
learn is that constipation causes more than half the sick
ness in the world; and it can all be prevented. Go by
the book.
Write to B. F. Allen Company, 365 Canal street, New
York, for the little book on CONSTIPATION (its causes con
sequences and correction); sent free. If you are not within
reach of a druggist, the pills will be sent by mail, 25 cents.

There is already a demand for the
uuused and half burnt carbons from
the arc lights. Someone has discov
ered that carbon is a cure for con
sumption, and it is a well known fact
that men who work in carbon facto
ries are singularly healthy. Just how
the fragments of carbon are broken
up and the particles inhaled does not
appear, but people collect them a go«>d
deal and profess to derive benefit
from their use. It has been claimed
for years that a smoky atmosphere is
a good one for a .consumptive patient,
although this has been denied by doc
tors again and again. The carbon the
ory may account for what some pao
ple believe to be nonsense and others
an infallible theory.—St. Louis Globe-
Democrat.
It is stated by authorities in naval
architecture that a steel vessel inn
carry twenty per cent, more than mi
iron ship.
