Feeding Sitting: Hen*.
One of the reasons why it is hard
to make hens sit regularly in winter
is found iu feeding them too often.
A hen called off from her uest thiee
or four times a day is likely to make
some ventures of her own to get food
or drink. Uutil the hen is thorough
ly set on sitting, she should be fed
only ouce a day, and that early iu the
moruiug. If it is in a close room,
where she cannot get out, the lieu
will go back to the nest. again and sit
contentedly. !?he takes no exercise
and needs only food enough to sus

Keeping Chimney. Clean.
After a winter's supply of wood or
coal has beeu burned, much of it
while rain or suow is drifting down
the chimney, it is sure to be foul with
soot, and auy extra hot tire, especially
with wood, will send sparks up that
will set the soot atire aud eudauger
.he house. It is a good plau to poke
a broom or brush with very long hau
lle up aud down the chiiuuey to clear
iway the soot If this is done and
-lie soot is removed from below there
will be little danger of its doing auy
lamage. The chimney ought to be
maJe smooth inside, so that the soot
■* ill not. lie caught by roughness as the
smoke goes up. A chimney afire is a
serious danger, especially when the

Salt for Cattle.
A Nebraska cattle breeder desires
:o know whether barrel or rock salt is
.he better and also asks if rock salt is
uard ou the tongues of horses and
.•attle.
The salting question comes up con
stantly. As a matter of fact it needs
;o come frequently to attention as the
waiting of stock is probably the most
neglected of the uecessary operations
au a stock farm. This ordiuarily
.•omes from oversight. The intention
.s good but the memory is at fault.
>u many farms it is the cry that stock
.s salted once a week; Sunday mora
ng frequently being the time selected
'or that "chore." Some stockmen go
io the other extreme and mix salt
Jailv with the feed of the cattle.
Some farmers erroneously believe that
ialt is not good for stock* and with-
Hold it. The practice varies widely.
The safest and soundest principle
s to keep salt within reach of animals
ill the time and allow them to take it
it will as their appetites demand. If
ialt aud water were always at the co-n
--aiaud of live stock health and thiift
.vonld be materially promoted. It is
lot always possible or economical to
keep water constautlv be r ore animals,
out sa'.t is readily enough placed so
.hat they may take it at will. We
lincli prefer io -k salt for stock. It is
uore economical in that thee is much
0-s waste-l. Moreover, auiinuls are
le B apt to take ton much of it. Wheu
deprived of salt for some time feeding

if it is snpp'ied in loose form—so
nuch that it will get them to scour

e usefulness of the goat iu clear
ing foul lands aul th i profitableness
if the animal fur its hair, skin ami
even carcass, is becoming p'-etty well
underst iod. But. the goat is valuable
as a dairy animal. If the cows, for
instance, are beius used for supply,
ing a city milk trade, the keepiug of
goats for the home uii k supply would
1-e an excell nt policy. '1 he goat will
live where a cow would s ar\e; an I
whi e it, like eve y other domestic
animal, will do beat on good pasture,
it will live anil yield milk on astonish
ingly little food. The animal and its
niillt ave almost entirely exempt from
disease; the milk is more nutritious
than that of the cow and agrees with
stomachs that cow's milk frequently
offeuds. The animal requires oulj
the cheapest kind of shelter; but it
needs shelter from the storms and in
winter. If by renson of drouth, soil
ing is necessary, leaves, vegetable re
fuse, peelings of the apple or potato,
bread crusts or stale bread, if they arc
sweet and clean, will be all the feec
thttT is needed. All goats, however,
will not eat the same food, and the
feeder will have to study the appetite*
of the individual animal. Frequen'
feeding and a variety of food, in wiu
ter, will be found beneficial. Roots,
oil meal, oats, corn (of tlie latter, ir
the whole state, the goat is very fond
are proper feed, especially for the
milking goat. Rock salt is greatlj

Planting and Cultivation of Corn.
The cultivation of corn should be
gin with the plowing of the ground.
The best depth to plow will depenr
altogether on the kiud of soil and tli<
condition of the field. Many fieldi
cannot be plowed the same deptk
throughout the whole leugth. Ofter
oue end or the other of the field, 01
probably the middle, is low. Ther
the side of the hill may be quite steep,
with most of the surface soil washec
off. Low places and these washeo
hillsides should not be plowed more
than four inches deep. Give such
spots a good dressing of manure be
fore harrowing. Another point it
this section is to avoid plowing wher
the ground is too wet.
On level and moderately dry laud,
plow to a depth of eight inches. The
giouud will then hold more moisture
and the-coru suffer less trom diouth.
If southeru farmers would plow theii
grouud in the tall and seed to rve, the
roots of tue growing rye would pre
vent washing and would catch and
hold the fertility which otherwise
would leach through the soil. In the
spring it will only be necessary tc
plow to a depth of two or three inches.
.Megan harrowing as soon as tb« ground
will permit, going once each way be
fore planting, or as many times as ir
necensary to pulverize the seed bed.
The distance between the rows ol
corn and the thickness of plautiug de
pend entirely upon the quality of the
land, .and every farmer must be his
own judge. In some southern local
ities one stock every six ieet in
rows four feet apart is sufficient
When the land is rich more cau be
planted.
As soon as the corn is planted, the
ground should be harrowed agaiu.and
ordinarily the fields should receive
Another harrowing just before the
corn coiues to it lie surface. The crop
will not be injured. When the rows
can be seen across the field, go over
with a weeder or an A harrow. Culti
vate one each way in this manuer.theu
use an ordinary corn cultivator, going
over the Meld not more than three
times with this implement. In very
dry seasons, twice is sufficient. Much
corn is ruined by deep and close cul
tivation, for it the roots are once dis
turbed, the crop will never fully re
cover. After the last cultivation, Igo
through the field once each way with
a small one-horse harrow, which runs
between the rows. If the season has
been at all favorable, the crop will
need no further attention. When the
husks on the ears have turned yellow,
cut and put iu shocks 12 to 14 feet
square.—W. M. Knover, iu New Eng

Short and Ireful Paragraph*.
It is not the hog's fault that it has
a reputation for filthiness.

many farmers of quite a few eggs.
Fowls as well as all animals do bet

It is a pretty hard matter to trim o
grape vine too close if yon do it before

During shearing time keep the old

In purchasing fertilizers for early

is a quick acting fertilizer that yor

A good preventive of milk fever i?
to have the cows calve iu the fall 01
winter when the feed does not have sc
great a tendency to make milk.
Owing to the increasing importance
of the sueep industry, it would be
we 1 for farmers to look into the mat
ter and study up the "ins and outs."
Milk contains about 87 per cent, of
water. If the water the cows drink if
bad about 87 )er cent, of the milk
that you are using is uot what ■
(light to be.
Farmers, doa't ignore the ducks.
With a fair average of eggs laid dur
ing the year, if you did not eat or sell
them, but set them aul hatched ou'
50 per cent, of the eggs, it would b
• n excellent investment.
Milk fever generally occurs among
the best milkei s. Look out for such
cows. After a cow has helped fi.'

HOW DOCTORS EARN BKS FEES.
One Who Got S4OOO for Saving a Patient's
I.ife by diving Him a Good Dinner.
The doctor and some of the report
ers were talking in the little room op
posite the telephone office dowu at
Bellevue hospital.
"I see by the papers, "said the doo
tor, mentioning tbe story of a large
bill reported to have been sent in by
a surgeon of the city, "that this doc
tor didn't feel satisfied with 84000.
He thought he ought to have 94000.
That's a rather line distinction, per
haps, but it all depends on the sort of
a case which the Mirgeon treated. A
mau with his skill and his standing
cau charge almost anything he
pleases.
"The way in which some physicians
earn large fees is curious. 1 recall
one case of the sort —or at least a
3toiy of a case, for I won't vouch for
Ihe truth of it ail. A man had beeu
suffering for some time with gastritis
and had been treated for more thau a
year by several physicians. The usual
treatmeut is to put the patient on a
milk diet. That usually does the
work, but this man kept growing
worse. He finally summoned Dr. 8.,
one of the best known physicians in
the city. When Dr. B. learned the
history of the case he took one long
look at the man's face an I reached for
his hat.
" 'I need time to think this over,'
he said, 'You meet nie tomorrow at
Delmonico's and I'll prescribe treat
ment of some sort for you.'
"The patient appeared at the time
the doctor had set.
" 'Come in and sit down,' said the
physician. 'I can talk to you while
1 am eating my dinner.'
"Then the physician said something
in a low tone and when the waiter
came back he brought two orders of
oysters. The patieut looked sur
prised.
" 'Now,' said the doctor, 'you just
fall to and eat a good meal. That's
all you want.'
"It turned out that the doctor wae
right. The mnn who had beeu nearly
dead was soon in good health. Theu
the physician sent in his bill. It was
for S4OOO. When the man received it
he hurried around to the doctor's of
fice.
" 'By thunder,' said the man. 'Do
yon think I'm made of money. I can
pay it all right, but now, honestly, doc
tor, don't you think it's pretty large?'
" 'No,' replied the physician. 'Your
life is worth more thau §4OOO, isn't
it? Well I saved your life. I can't
see that I'm asking too much.'
"The man sent around his check
the next daj. " —New York Hun.

Thus wives daughters and sisters

Singular Appearance of Flail In Hainoa.
One strange feature of this sea life
of the tropics is the regular recur
rence of migratory swarms of fish of
very small size, that return in huge
numbers year after year with such ab
solute regularity that the natives cal
culate on the event on a certain day
in each year, and even within an
hour or two of the day. One such
swarm of fish forms the occasion of
an annual holiday and feast at Sa
moa. The fish is not unlike the
whitebait for which the English
Thames has so long been celebrated,
and eaoh year it arrives at Samoa on
the same day in the month of October,
remains for a day, or at the most two
days, and then disappears entirely
till the same day of the following
year. . Why it comes, or whence, no
curious aaturalist has yet discovered,
nor hart anybody traced its onward
course when it leaves the Samoan
group; but the fact is unquestionable
that suddenly, without notice, the still
waters of the lagoon which surrounds
each island within the fringing reef
become alive with millions of fishes,
passing through them for a single day
and night, and them disappearing for
a year as though they had never
come.
A visit to Samoa enabled me to see
this strange phenomenon for myself,
and to witness the native feasts by
which it is celebrated year by year.—

1 tough on the General.
A French actor named Hyacinthe
once illustrated the saying, "Discre
tion is the better part of valor." It
was in the month of June, and a com
pany of the national guard, of which
Hyacinthe was a sergeant, was en
gaging a body of insurgents behind a
barricade a* the other end of a short
street. One of the insurgents, in
particular, from a corner of the barri
cade was making remarkably effective
practice on the assailants. At that
moment up came a general.
"We must get him to expose him
self," said the general. "One of you
must clamber up on top of the barri
cade; then, when onr friend at the
other end of the street shows himself
to take aim, two or threo of you fetch
him down. Up with you, sergeant!"
"Beg your pardon, general, but,
perhaps, you see, an insignificant un
commissioned officer like myself may
have no attraction for him. But a
handsome, distinguished man like
you, in that Btylish and becoming
uniform —he'd bo more thau mortal if
he could resist the temptation. I'll

A member of the Louisville bar
named Simmondson was iu the habit
of intimidating the opposing wit
nesses, whom, when they came to be
cress-examined, he harassed in every
imaginable mauner. The last witness
he took in hand was a tall, lank
farmer, with a thoughtful eye. He
had watched the baiting of his neigh
bors in dead silence, and took the
stand with perfect composure. Sim
mondson evideutly set him dowu as n
lout, and when the witness hesitated
over some question a moment he
roared: "What are y' studying about?
'Fraid of telliug a lie, too, I suppose?"
Without any apparent haste the
countryman picked up a massive ink
stand and hurled it straight at Sim
mondson's head, catching him on the
bridge of ihe nose aud knocking him
senseless. "That's what I was
a-studyin' about," he drawled, in the
moment of deud silence that followed
the act. Needless to say, a tremendous
hubbub ensued, but everybody was
secretly pleased, aud while the judge
fined the farmer heavily for contempt,

tence.—Chicago Law Journal.

Timid horses are frightened, side
