FULTOiJ COUNTY NEWS (Continued fnim Klrst PiikcJ) that all trees should be spiayed at least, throe times during the season. Li mo every seven or fight years, and inauuro every four, years, were recommended M r. Seeds next gave his lecture on "The Value of Fertility and the Cheapest Way to get it. " He iu handling his subject, told his auditors of his own experience with a poor farm that he bought in Huntingdon county, and claim ed that vegetable matter in con nection with cultivation is the cheapest road to fertility. To reach this result, the cow-horn turnip and crimson clover were nsod, bringing up the soil to the proper mechanical condition. It was also recommended that all manure made on the farm should be applied .direct to the sod as soon as made and left lie for a year, if possible, before put ting to corn, spreading the ma uuro as evenly as possible. v THURSDAY EVENING. Prof. Bute was next introduced and gave a talk on Agricultural Education. The speaker in show iug the value of an agricultural education, gave some illustrations showing how some men who have prepared themselves for a post tion above their own, so that when an opening presented itself the man was ready for it. The address was interspersed with anecdotes and amusing incidents and was very well received. The work of the institute which had been very practical was now finished, and there being an hour left, the management turned Bob Seeds loose on the audience. Bob has a farm up about Bir mingham in Huntingdon county; and if he knows as much about raising turnips as he does about making an audience laugh, he is a howliug success as a farmer. The McConnellsburg orchestra assisted by Prof. G. Irvine Cham bers, of Newville, furnished the instrumental music at the even ing sessions. A cornet solo by Prof. Chambers Thursday even ing was encored to the echo, and a secoud was even more pleasing than the first. COUGHS, COLDS, AND CON STIPATION.

Elias Hartz, of Heading, who has gained a wide reputation as the goose-bone weather prophet, has given out his prediction for the coming winter as he sees it from the breast bone of a goose which he had for his Thanksgiv iug dinner. "I am now prepared to tell the people what kind of weather we will have from now until spring," said Mr. Haftz, displaying a goose bone. "I have secured several bones, and all are alike. The edges at the front end show a dark color, and this is known as the frost Jine. "Aloug about the beginning or middle of December there is to be a sudden drop in temperature ac cording to the color, and winter is with us. I predict that we will have an unusually severe winter. "Tliore is every reason to be lieve that the whiter of 1002-03 will be a record breaker. It looks to mo as though it was going to be ouo of the old-fashioned kind. There will be plenty of snow along about tho middle of winter. H is seldom that the lines of dis )U)nition are so regular as they "howu this year..

Noaey Tar ALL OVER THE H0U$e7 Portable Ironing Caiee That Many Will Find Convenient Ironing in its best cstnto could never be aid to have tabout it any of the flavor of the interesting and noTel, and yet a woman has invent ed for her own ue a quaint and in genioua method of conducting that homely household rite that seta it upon a pedestal for the time being. She hag arranged what ehe calls a portable ironing cac, and it is so simplo and useful that it ought to bo widely disseminated forjhe use of those who must flit from room to room in the moving season or who own a hall bedroom and a gas jet. And how muny women and girls know perfectly well that unless thoy can have tho use of an iron occa sionally their laundry bills will run up into a terrifying amount. With the ironing case all is made easy. The first thing necessary in the care of the person is a neat and orderly arrangement of the stocks and cuffs and handkerchiefs. Itib bons, if they could have a bit of a pressing between flannels, would re new their youth, and stockings and doilies come in for their share of the same need. Most lxmrding places distinctly say, Ao ironing and washing al lowed." This is to stem the tide of young women who would rush into the kitchens of busy houses or would monopolize the bathroom. With a set bowl or ordinary basin the tiny wash can be wrung out and dried, but the ironing has .always been the problem. To make a case purchase first of all a little sadiron, and you will find It the jollicst sort of eompnny. It is tho king pin of the whole box and is just two inches long in the keel, so to spoak. Jt is inexpensive and has a remov able handle and is exactly like the grown up iron, only very small. llio second requisite is a stick of wax of any of the best known grades. The third requisite is a small board such us any ten cent store keeps for bread cutting, and the last is a squune of sandpaper. These with a small traveler's heat ing lamp complete the outfit. The whole may be placed in a small wooden starch box and packed in the trunk along with the other need fuls for the toilet. English Tea Cakea. When visiting in the home of an Englishwoman, I had for tea some of tho most delicious tea cakes I have ever tasted, writes 'a corre- ipondcnt for the Woman's Home Companion. She called them Eng lish currant cakes. The recipe is as follows: Three cupfuls of flour, a pincli of salt, two heaping teaspoon- luls or wikmg powder, one-hull cup ful of butter, one and a half cupfuls of currants, two tublespoonfuls of finely chopped cundied orange peel and milk enough to make a soft dough. Mix nil dry ingredients to gether, soften butter, and dripping and rub well into flour; add milk enough to make soft dough and roll out on floured board till about one- half inch thick; cut in rounds the size of a tea plate, put in a greased tin and bake till light brown. When done, cut in two and spread thickly with butter. Jserve hot. These cakes will keep good and can be warmed in the oven when wanted. Brush Handlea and Backs. The backs and handles of ebony brushes should be rubbed over with a very little boiled linseed oil after washing and then rubbed r with a soft duster till every vestige of oil is removed. Special care is needed in cleaning initials on these, and only a very little slightly moistened whiting should be used, or it is apt to leave a nasty white mark on the wood, which is extremely difficult to remove. In brushing the whiting off after cleaning bo careful not to scratch the ebony, for once scratch ed it is spoiled. New Use For Chamois ftklna. A new way to use chamois skin has come to light, and doilies in the natural vivid yellow or the gray and red shades winch are to be found among art furnishings decorate the polished top of the luncheon table. l)f course theso leather mats are decorated, and opportunity is thug offered for the amateur to do some effective work, although no partic ular amount of skill ig' required. Rosea, chrysanthemums and nas turtiums make excellent subjects when due regard is paid to the color effect. Covers For Tables, f A shabby table or one tbt is de faced by stuins or a handsome one that is wanted for a curd or re freshment table may be covered with a felt or cloth cover. Get a piece of the muteriul of the proper size, make it with a slim string all round, seeing it is large enough, to. cover the. edges of the table, and the string may be drawn upi tightly when the cover is needed.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.' A Life Saving Elephant Who Caught Ji Cold and Died. v 'A few Venrs ago two children were bathing in tho Ben Bt a little town on the coast of France when sud denly for some reason or other they were carried out of their depth. In a few moments their cries as they struggled in the deep water aroused attention, but before any one could reach them they were rescued in an altogether unexpected wanner. An immenso elephant belonging to a traveling circus happened to have been led down to the sea that morning to bathe, and as he was en joying his bath close at hand he heard the cries of the children. Plunging through tho water toward them, he lifted them very gently, one at a time, and carried them to a place of safety. This elephant, whose namo was Ous, recently died at Hereford from the effects of a severe cold. He had reached a great age and was said to be 150 years old. Chatterbox. How to Tell the Time.

One morning I found mv terrier Xip sitting outside the store cup board. He always liked to be near when it ' wtiH opened, been use ho hoped to get something to cat, so I took no notice of him; but he jumped up at me and then nt the door, usking us plainly as ho could that it might be opened. I scolded him for being so greedy, but ho would not move. Later in the day cook wanted something from the cupboard and remui ked that Xip had been sitting there ever since breakfast. Ho seemed very excited and pleased when he found the door was really going to be opened, and when cook threw back the door we knew why. Pussv, who is a great friend of his. wulked out. Xip had been trying to tell us she was there all the morn ing, only we were too stupid to un derstand. Philadelphia Ledger. The Boy Was Right.
