REMEDY FOR RATS AND MICE.
Tliese small but greatly destructive
vermin of the fnrm may be kept in
subjection without much trouble if
the right methods are taken. First,
Ihe buildings should l»o constructed
with special reference to them ; this,
however, is raroly thought of by build
ers. No hiding places should be per
mitted under the floors or behind the
fittings; the floors should either be on
the ground and made of concrete,
through which rats cannot burrow,
or raised so high above it that cats
and dogs cau go everywhere in pur
suit of their natural game. Three or
four good cats, preferably emasculated
ones, and one good terrier—a fox
terrier is the best—or all of these,
will, if well fed, spend the greater
part of their time in hunting, and so
very 6oon exterminate the vermin.
Otherwise poison should bo used in
such a way as to avoid danger to oth
er animals. This may be • done by
mixing a very little powdered strych
nine with some fat in which cornmeal
is mixed; and putting small quan
tities of this in holes bored in blocks
of wood, so that the vermin can get
at it aud other animals cannot. These
traps are scattored about whero tho
vermin will be likely to get at the
bait. New York Times.
HOW CREAM IS RIPENED.
The cream is best skimmed when
rather thick, that is, when it may be
almost rolled up on the pan and lifted
in a sort of cake. It will then con
tain about twenty per cent, of milk,
and some milk must thou be poured
into the cream jar with the cream, and
tho whole stirred to mix the two in
timately. This stirring is done every
time the cream is added, and the third
milking should bo the Inst before the
cream is churned. The cream will
ripen of itself if it is kept in a warm
place all this time, not less than sixty
degrees of temperature. At the end of
this time the surface will glisten like
satin when it is stirred, and this is a
good indication of>its full ripening for
the churning. Otherwise, the cream
may be set on the addition of tho last
cream, by mixing half a pint of tho
buttermilk from the last can, churn
ing to five gallons of the cream and
stirriug it well; then, at a tempera
ture of sixty or sixty-five degrees, the
cream will i>e ready for churning in
twelve hours. This will yield the
finest flavored butter, that is fit for
the tablo in a few hours after it is
made, or for some tastes it is churned
for every meal, aud eaten as it is
churned. Cream thus ripened will
make a very delicately flavored but
ter.—American Farmer.
HOW TO RAISE YOUNG CHICKS.
When tho chicks are all Latched
leave them under the lion undisturbed
for one dny. They aro tender and
delicate and need tho vitalizing heat
of the mother. Let them remain with
out food until the second day. When
the hen is taken from the nest dust
her thoroughly with fresh insect pow
der. Grease her legs lightly with
melted lard and apply two or three
drops to tho back of her neck. Do not
put any under her winars, as the chicks
ara apt to get it into tueir eyes, caus
ing blindness. Lice pass from the
hen to tho chick.*, 20 if thero is one
louse on the lien it is one too many.
The first four or five days feed stale
bread or cracker crumbs moistened
with sweet milk. Do not make it too
sloppy. Tho principal food should be
bread made of equal parts fino oat
meal, bran, shorts and corn inoal. Add
enough soda and salt to season, and
three teaspoonfuls of ground bone.
Mix with bweet milk aud bake in the
oven. Crumble the inside of the bread
and feed it dry. Take the crust aud
moisten with a raw egg until the whole
is a stiff dough. Young chicks will
koep healthy and grow fast on this
food. Egg is the natural food for
young fowls and should bo given once
or twice a day. Raw egg will prevent
bowel trouble, while too much hard
boiled egg will produce it.
Feed regularly every two hours un
til the chicks are a week old, then
four times a day will do. Give them
all they will eat up clean but do not
leave any in the trough to sour. As
soon as chicks require food they re
quire water. Milk may bo given, but
it should bo sweet. If the weather is
cold have the water tepid. Construct
the drinking dishes so that the chicken
can drink without getting wet. Never
feed raw corn meal to chicks. Bran is
better than corn meal, as it contains
more mineral matter aud is one of the
best bone-forming foods that can be
given to growing fowls; but it should
always be soalded. As they grow
older feed grain, either whole or
cracked. Table scraps and garden
greens may also be given. Keep pul
verized charcoal and fine gravel withiu
their reach all the time. Tho young
chicks must bo kept warm aud dry un
til they are six weeks old; a single
night's exposure may bring on bowel
disease. When this appears it is gen
erally attributed to the food, but the
real cause is cold.
Do liot keep tho hen confined in a
coop unless it'is a large one, and then
only in bad, wet weather. It is almost
impossible to keep a confined hen free
from lice. If she has her liberty she
will dust da ly and rid herself of the
pests, and the little chicks wiil learn
at an early age to wallow in the dust.
Let them roam over the garden and
fields aud they will gather a large part
of their food, and boneflt the farm
and garden by ridding them of in
sects. —Amorican Agriculturist.
CARE OF ORCHARDS.
Extracts from a very interesting
paper road by J. H. Fishell before the
Indiana Horticultural Society: Tho
care of orchards for best results is a
subject which concerns all of us.
There is too much lack of horticul
tural knowledge among farmers. Tlioy
are not OR well posted on fruit-grow
ing as they should lie. It certainly
would be to tho advantage of every
wide-awake farmer and fruit-grower
to join and attend regularly the in
teresting meetings of each societies as
this. Those who make a success in
fruit growing do so by intelligent in
dustry. It has been said "if a man
would know anything he must think;
if he would have anything he must
work." Now if he will do either, all
things are so arranged that he may re
ceive rich rewards.
From the earliest times men have
turned to the soil for their support.
The products were few because their
wants were .'aw. In process of time
agriculture was divided into depart
ments. The man who cultivated field
crops on a large scale was oalled a
husbandman or agriculturist. Others
that cultivated fruits, roots and vege
tables were called horticulturists, and
one branch of the latter is my subjeot.
Fruit is the poor man's friend,
the rich man's luxury, the laborer's
physician, and the foe to
quack doctors. There is no more
royal road to health than that lined
by trees of ripened fruit. The growth
of trees, whether in the forest, or in
the orchard, takes from the soil the
necessary nutriment both for the for
mation of wood and the development
of fruit. To seoure the most satisfac
tory development of fruit requires
health and vigor of wood. But the
growth of trees in a soil continually
oropped in soil exhaustion, and if con
tinued for a term of years with no re
storation of fertilizing material, the
conditions become unfavorable to any
healthy growth of wood fibre. It is
under such conditions as these that
fruit rapidly deteriorates or fails of
production.
The orchard set in young trees
should be cultivated annually and
some fertilizing material applied for
the benefit of the trees as well as the
vegetables or small fruit raised, until
the trees come into bearing; then the
cultivation should cease for a time.
Fruit trees require care and nutri
ment, and without these the results
are not satisfactory. Healthfulness is
iudicated by a vigorous growth and a
folinge of dark green, and when these
conditions exist the fruit will be found
smooth and of good size. Orchards
may be fertilized by spreading ma
nure over the surface of the ground,
especially that portion of it through
which the roots of the trees extend.
Potash is a valunble fertilizer for all
kinds of fruit and can bo applied in
the form of unleached wood ashes,and
being largely soluble are easily oon
veyed to the foots and immediately
appropriated to profitable use.
We would lay down these rules in
commencing: Select a situation best
adapted for the purpose, taking every
thing into consideration. If not well
drained see that it is. Scatter well
composted manure over the ground,
plow deep, and then if you can get
them scatter wood ashes over the
ground and work them well into the
soil with a harrow. And depend upon
it there is no amount of pains which
you can take in this respect that will
cot amply repay you in the end. We
look upon it as of the utmost import
ance to the future welfare of the tree
that it should have a good start in the
beginning and make an early and
rapid growth; this will enable it to
resist the attacks ol disease and in
sects the better.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Chnrcoal is a good corrective of
bowel disorders in poultry.
Save the poultry droppings. Store
them whero thev will be kept dry.
Diversify, diversify. That is not
the only secret of success, but is essen
tiul when no speoial crops will pay, as
is the case at present.
The first thing to do in the spring
is to apply a liberal allowance of solu
ble fertilizer on the asparagus bed, as
asparagus comes early in the spring.
It is said that watermelons will keep
nicely until Christmas if they are cut'
from the vine with tlio stems on and
buried in sand out of the way of frost.
Common sense will bring more eggs
than corn. Don't you forget that.
Whatever food you use mix it
thoroughly with common sense, or the
iood will be wasted.
Buy farm machinery as cheap as
possible, but do not buy cheap ma
chinery. The poorly constrnoted ma
chine bought at a low price is often
the most costly one in the long run.
Farmers who figure on their pro
fits should endeavor to estimate the
expenso incurred in loss of fertility
•sold in the produce. This fertility
must be returned to the soil or the
succeeding crops will be lessened cor
lespondingly.
l'otash is essential to land bearing
fruits, and, therefore, ashes is a valu
able fertilizer for such ground. In
tiding ashes use it alone, for it has
wonderful power of liberating some of
tlio most valuable elements in nitro
genous fertilizers.
Farmers must have an ideal to
which to work, and not be content to
go along "about as usual." There is
no suocess without an aim, and this
aim should be a high one and every
energy bent to it at all times. This
is a law of success everywhere.
The fact is now well established that
the cost of keeping a hen one year is
oue dollar, and if she is any good, and
you feed her properly she will pay
back that dollar and give you another
in eggs. You can feed her more than
a dollar's worth in a year if you
choose, but the kiudness will be mis
placed, for she will get too fat and
lazy to lay, hence your account will
balance on the wrong side.
Those who are starting incubators
for the first time will do well to ex
periment with a small number of eggs
at first. My first experience with an
incubator was good—out of one thou
sand and eight eggs we got nine
hundred and three chicks. Chicks
can be kept too closely confined un
der glass. If being reared without a
hen, they need some dark, quiet plaoe
to retreat to frequently for sleep,
whioh is food to them.

HELIOTROPE TOR INDOOR CCI/TIVATIOW.
Although the heliotrope is a tender
plant, extremely sensitive to cold, it
is one of the best plants for onltiva
tion indoors. It seems to have few
diseases, and is usually free from in*
sect enemies, while with abundant
water and sunshine and snffioient ar
tificial heat it will bloom all winter
long year after year, and is so tena
cious of life that when out down to a
mere stiok it quickly shoots forth lux
uriant new wood. In addition to all
this, the more the plant is pruned the
more luxuriantly it blossoms. The
blossoms should be cut with a consid
erable length of tho new wood upou
which they grow, and if at once fully
immersed in water and then placed in
a deep, well-filled vase they remain
fresh and odorous for many days.
The plant is a little diflloult for ama
teurs to propagate from cuttings,
though with plenty of water and snu
and some bottom heat the younar cut
tings quickly root aucl prosper.—

HOW TO OIL A FLOOR.
Get boiled linseed oil (raw oil will
do but not so well), writes H. Horner.
Stir into it enough ytSllow ochre to
make it the consistency of cream.
Add half a pint oi Japan dryer; stir
all well together and apply with a me
diuin-sized paint brush. Begin at
the washboard and work .your way to
wards the center of room, leaving a
way to work out toward the door.
Keep off the floor for a day or two.
No doubt some plaoes in the floor will
be much worn. These spots might
have a thin coat put on a few days be
fore the entire floor is painted and
oiled, and as they will be rough the
mixture will be absorbed so rapidly
that little or no care need be taken to
keep off this lirst coat. If it is sim
ply desired to oil the floor omit tho
yellow ochre. If you want a dirty
brown color to hide stuins use two
thirds or three-fourths ochre and one
fourth burnt amber. Either of these
colors in a dry povder will do, but it
is better to buy them ground in oil.
Be sure to mix well before usiug, and
stir with a stick now and then while
applying. The ochre alone will give
nearly the color of new pine boards.
It fills the rough plaoes in floor much
better than oil only. Tho floor will
wear longer, be smoother and wipe up
cleaner. All our doors are painted
and kept so. They are more cleanly,
are more easily cared for, arc healthier
and look so much better. We have
no carpets and don't want them.
Havo plenty of nice rugs and mats
spread about where needed. Oilod or
painted floors should not be scrubbed,
simply wipod with a damp cloth. One
gallon oil and half a pint of .Japan
dryer with enough ochre to thicken
will do a room fifteen feet square, one
coat depending some on condition of
floor.—Home and Farm.
RECIPES.

130,000 Lost Children.
Francis George, the Liverpool bell
man, is to retire from the service ot
the city, after a public career extend
ing over a period of sixty veais. He
was originally a member of the old
dock police force. It is said that at
one time the office of bellman was
worth to the person who held it about.
$2500 per annum. In addition to mak
ing public proclamation?, it was part
of the bellmau's duty on all civio oc
casions to walk before tho Mayor of
Liverpool, with a portion of tho re
galia. It was Mr. George's distinction
in that capAcil / during his longperio l
<-f office to walk beforo fifty-three
Mayors. In these lster days the of
fice of bellman has become practicilly
a sinecure. The duties which he had
to discharge havo become obsolete, ami
other means of announcement have
superseded that of the bellman. Up
to the present, however, to the bell
mau's house in Greek street uio takeu
lost and strayed childreu who may be
found wandering about unoare I for in
the streets of Liverpool. During his
long tenure ot office, Mr. George has
received from police officers at the bell
man's house the custody of no fewer
than 130,000 stray children, whom he
restored to their parents. Latterly
this was the old bellman's chief emo
lument, each parent paying twelve
cents for the recovery of the lost chil
dren, and $125 a year was granted to
Mr. George from the corporation.—

A Still limit lor Ancestor*.
It is remarked in New York that
Judge Pryor's wife has written for the
Century Magazine a paper that she
calls "A Search for an Ancestor," and
it is Baid the topic is timely, for ever
since Ward McAllister's first social ad
vent tho Four Hundred have contained
many family units who have been i
hunting up ancestors, pedigrees aud
coats of arms. There is, socially, a
veritable craze for the latter, and the
pedestrian who may linger at book
sellers' windows can view a display of
and mottoes from which coats
of arms may be made up by many of
the newly rich, whose ancestors really
had no arras to their coats. Hunting
up ancestors may yet becomo a prom
inent social sport among the city
swells. Any sort of an ancostor will
do when a man is in a hurry for a ped
igree.—New Orleans Picayune.
"Father ot American Watchmaking."
The late Aaron Dennison, who has

worked late into the night, so late that
his loving wife would go and beg
him to "wait until to-morrow." One
night she said to liim: "Are you not

auswered: "I am trying to make it

UNCLE BOK'S SUNDAY TALK.
A DISCOUKSE ON A TYPEWRITER—
MACHINE, NOT OPEKATOK,
WHICH FINDS FAVOK.
Improvement!) Lighten I.abor---His Speed
oil the New Remington No. 0 About
One-third Greater Than on
the OM No. 2.
I changed typewriters last week, and am so
pleased with the new machine that I cannot
help writing about it. Any one who makes
"copy" or has much correspondence to do will
understand my pleasure when I say that I can
do about one-third more work in the same
time oil the new machine than I could on the
old one. It Is still a Remington, however, the
new No. 8 Remington having displaced my old
No. 2. which has done me such good service.
The new Remington is certainly a wonderful
improvement on anything in the way ot writ
ing machines that I have ever tried. The im
provements all tend toward greater ease of
operation, and simplicity as well as durability
of the machine. The cylinder is so placed that
the objectionable variation in the alignment,
which is sometimes noticed wlicn doing heavy
manifolding, Is no longer observed, and this
improvement is al-o said to tend toward a
greater permanence of the alignment of the
machine when doing ordinary writing—some
thing which Is easy to believe if one thinks
about it for u moment. The handles at each
end of the cylinder are also a great conveni
ence, and the ease with which tho cylinder
can lie turned backward or forward without
lifting any pawls or other gimcracks is a great
advantage, as it enables one to run the paper
to and fro in the machine at will. There are
three line spacings instead ot two, and the
greater width of the carriage permits longer
lines to be written, thus condensing the work.
The now method of hanging tho shifting por
tion of the carriage renders it possible to do
away entirely with the outer framework of
the No. 2 carriage, and gives an appearanco of
lightness and elegance to tho now machine
which the old one laeks. It Is not merely an
appearance, either. Tho touch of the now ma
chine has been made even lighter and easier
than it-Is in the oldor models—no small con
sideration when ono runs a machine, as I do
mine, for hours at a st retch, and at full speed,
too. The man who pays tho bills for ribbons
must also rejoice at the new model. By an in
genious change in the mechanism the ribbon
is shifted sidewlse every time it is reversed,
so that tho ordinary life of the ribbon is vorv
much prolonged, rendering the machine much
more economical to run, aud giving a much
cleaner and more uniform Impression. The
carriage is very much lighter to lift, and yet,
notwithstanding it* increased capacity, is evi
dently vory strongly and durably construct
ed. The spacing mochanlsm Is also wonder
fully improved. The rack of the No. 2is re
plaoed by a little escapement wheel which
works at lightning speed and with unerring
certainty, making the machine lighter to run
and quicker to act aud reducing the wear upon
the different parts. The new method of feed
ing tho paper into the machine and control
ling its movement cannot be too highly com
mended. Tho old rubber bands havo disap
liearcd. and in their place is found a series of
self-adjusting rubber feed-rolls, which grasp
tho paper iirtniy yet lightly and control its
motion admirably. It is Just as easy to write
upon a narrow strip of paper in the new ma
chine as it is upon a wide sheet. The maohino
is also equipped with novel and ingenious
paper guides and envelope holders, which can
be 90 readily adjusted to any part of the cyl
inder that It is child's play to address en
velopes of any size or do other work of tho
kind. Every change seems to be designed to
promote the convenience of the operator and
to increase tho durability and working quali
ties of the machine, and I predict a groat deal
of popular favor for the new model. I have
always been enthusiastic about the Iteming
ton, because, after experimenting with nearly
every other make on the market, I became
satistled that it was constructed upon the
light principles and in the right manner, and
can always tie relied upon to do what is
claimed for it- Now that the No. 6is on the
market I think it is economy for users ot
writing machines to substitute it for older
models.—A>w York World.

"The Pleasure of Killing."
Captain C. A. W. Donovan, who has
recently made a hunting trip through
Matabeleland, Africa, has written a
book describing his experiences. He
betrays in tho most delightfully naive
way that delight in slaughter for
slaughter's owu sake which is char
acteristic of many nominally civilized
huntsmen. Here is a line illustration
of this peculiarity:
"While crossing Spring-bok Flats,
wo had a great hunt after a troop of
the nimble little bucks which give the
district its name. It was a pretty sight
to seethom galloping along aud mak
ing the marvelous springs into the air
from which their name is derived. To
watch them thus was to me—to whom
everything was new—almost as inter
esting as to shoot them. I should have
enjoyed another day after them, as
the open country in which they delight,
makes it possible to watch every turn,
twist aud jump of tho herd. Aud, af
ter all, seeing new animals in their
natural condition is almost equal to
tho pleasure of killing them."
Now Comes Plaid Paper.
Fashions in stationery change in a
way that is fairly kaleidoscopic. Just
now, says an exchange, plaid note
paper in delicate pink aud blue is
found upon tho desk of the fashion
able woman who dares lead where
others fear to follow. Plaid paper is
probably the product of the prevail

everything, even to the daily menu,--
