TO MAKE ORAFT1NO WAX.
Melt common rosin and beeswax in
ciim1 parts together. Then add half
as much tallow and half as much lin
seed oil ns of tallow. Mix well and
stir until cold. It should then bo of
pinh n consistenco that tho warmth of
tlio hand will soften it so Unit it may
be spread on tho stock and cion, or if
melted, tho strips of cloth steeped in
it will bo plinblo and adhesive. Tho
old method of covering tho grafts with
clay mdo plastic by working in tho
hands when wetted nnd binding it
over with cloth strips is as good now
ns ever it was, but tho wax is more
cleanly and noutor. Xcw York Times.
FEED FOn A FHESH COW.
A newly-calved cow need not be fed
full rations until n week after the calf
is born. Especially w ith a young cow
hi ving hor first calf, the feed is to bo
carefully increased from the previous
allowance, beginning at the end of tho
fourth day after the cow comes in.
After this, tho food may bo increased
gradually from an allowance of two
pounds of meal, in addition to a full
quantity of good hay, until tho limit
of profit and safety in tho feeding is
reached. No ono knows, until it is
tried how much grain food a cow will
consume safely and profitably for it is
not always profitable to feed a cow as
much as sho will eat, unless At the
aaiuo time tho milk product increases
in a proportionnto degree. Tho full
feeding of Any cow after calving should
not be rcachetl until tho second week,
for if the feed bo given to excess the
cow may bo pormanently injured by

WHY EGOS DON'T HATCH.
Year after year the same experience
in failing to hatch most of the early
eggs set 1 Eggs not fertilized cannot
hatch. Uunntnral conditions prevail
in winter and early spring. The birds
get litto or no moat, shells, gravel, and
some even lack exercise enough. Most
of them shivor about daily for houi s
w ith feet wet and feathers more or less
o. Provide everything for tho flock
kept for prodnoing sittings. Do every
thing for thoir comfort; don't forget
thorn onoe and then look for better ro
ults at hatching time. Tho owner of
thrifty lot of early pullets that will
lay eggs of gold next fall and winter is
tho careful thrifty fellow who today
provides for fertile egg production.

BTOMACR OF THE HORSE.
It is important to remember that
the digestive apparatus of a horse is
the exact opposite of that of a cow.
The stomach of a horse is a single bag,
and a very small on.o. It is too little
t to contain even an ordinary feed of
oats. By the time that two-thirds of
it has been (wallowed as much ia
passing out of the stomoch as is being
eaten. In consequence of this a very
large proportion of a horse's food is
not digested in the stomaoh, but is
ehoved along into the bowels. The
horse in state of nature is an animal
that is almost ulways feeding. He
cannot like the cow or ox, pack away
a large quantity of food and then lie
down and ohew it thoroughly, nor
indeed nt all. For this reason a horse
ought to bo fed little and often, and
tdiould not be watorod soon nftor
feeding grain. The frequent trouble
which arisos from overeating in horses
is best avoided by acting in accordance
with those fucts of a horse's construc
tion ; giving small but frequent feeds,
aud when nt work, at least, giving
grain, rather than any considerable
quantity of hay.
MARE THE HENS LAY.
Tu evory Hook there are a cumber
of hens that, despite all care and coax
ing, porsisteuly refue to lay. They
remain indifferent to the blandish
inopts of lean meat or ground green
bone ; vurioty of food possesses no
charms for them, nor can the warmth
of their quarters evoke any manifes
tation of good will to their owner, who
naturally is apt to regard thorn as
most ungrateful and often hastily
dooms them to the axe or the hatchet
when he would do better to inquire as
to the cause or causes of this contra
rioty.
Under normal conditions it is as
nntural for a hen to lay as it is for
pig to squeal or for a man to follow
Adam's txainplo and blnmo the woman
when anything goes wrong. Kometliing
has gono wronj with tlio non-layers,
and it is tho business of the poultry
man to invostigato and remove the
cause. Thoro nro several reasons why
certain members of tho flock may not
produco eggs during tho wiutor, wlnlo
other members under the same care
and feed may bo making glad tho
heart of tho owner.
It will generally bo found that tho
non-layers are tho lato monitors, which
winter found in an enfuoblod condi
tion. All their energies are concen
trated on picking up nnd regaining
their normal strength. This is, of
courso, much slower work than in
summer, Hut if tho poultrymen will
bear with them they will reward his
patienco by being tho cnrliost of the
spring layer, an 1 will keep on laying
fur inti) the Miinni'ir. Whilj prices
nro nut then ns high as in tho winter,
yit tho greater number of eggs laid
and the lessetied cost of production
will go fur to mako up tho difference.
Tho other great couso of non-pro
duction is over-fatness. All tho birds
of tho flock nro fed together and re
ceive the amount of food sufficient for
their wants in the opinion of the owner.
Whilo this may bo proper proportion
as far as tho bulk of tho flock is con
sidered, yet it may bo too much in in
dividual cases. Tho constitutions of
hens vary like those of human beings.
Homo will fatten on what will only
suflico to keep othors in fair condition.
Xow, fat and egg production nro dinm
ctrically opposed to each other. Thoy
cannot bo combined. Thoreforo, it
behooves the good poultry keeper to
keep careful watch of his flock, find
out non-layers and separate them from
tho working fowls nnd cut down their
rations. It is 0U0 well to vary the
feed, as tho appetites of some are
more capricious than that of others.

ROAST BEEF WITH YORKSHIRE.
A rib of sirloin roast should bo

cooked and pour in tho batter. Tut
the rack across tha pan, not iu it.
Plnoo tho meat on tho rack, return to
tho ovon and cool forty-fivo minutes.
If you have only ono pan, tako up tho
meat, pour off the gravy aud put iu
the pudding. Cut in squaros and gar
nish tho bocf with those. Another
method is to have a pan that has
squares stamped iu it This gives oven
squares and crust on all tho edges,
which baking in the fat pan does not.
When tho meat is roasted in tho tiu
kitchen, let tha pudding bake in tho
oven for half an hour, aud then place
it under tho meat to catch tho drip
ping. For tho Yorkshiro pudding, one
pint of milk, two-thirds of a cupful
of flour, three eggs and ono scant tea
spoonful of salt will bo needed. Beat
tho eggs very light Add salt nnd milk
nnd then pour about half it cupful of
tho mixture upou tho flour, and when
perfectly smooth add tho remainder.
This makes a rather small pudding

It Is one of the primary principles
of political economy that the happi
ness and prosperity of a country is
ganged by the general thrift of tho
inhabitants, nnd not by the abundance
of the few. That would be the model

of the British statesman, "An acre

vidual bad much greater possessions
than that.
"Lnndlordism" is responsible for
much of the misery which exists in
cities. Ilnppily there is a growing
disposition in this couutry lor wage

is not difficult for the laboring man

selves independent of landlords. The
suburbs of our cities have abundant
room for growth, and the land is not
nil in the possession of a few families.

Lost Blood Replaced With Halt Water.
Dr. Wyeth, speaking at the meeting
of the New York State Association of
Railway Burgeons, strongly recom
mended the injection into tho circula
tion through a vein of hot salt solu
tion to take the place, in part of the
volume of blood which has been lost
as a result of acoident. As reported
by the Railway Age, be spoke as fol
lows : "The solution which I have em
ployed, running in as much as five
pints in a single operation, is com
posed of clear water, which has been
boilcn and allowed to cool to 110 or
120 Fahrenheit, or just as hot as the
hand can bear to every pint of which
a teaspoonful of common salt is added.
I have seen the pulse go from 140, in
cases of tremendous heinorrage steadily
down to soventy to the minute within
two minntes of the injection of e pint
of this solution. While it may be usod
cooler than 110 degrees Fahrenheit,
and in some emergencies this may be
necessary, it is safer to give it as hot
as 110 to 120 degrees, beoauso the cold
solution robs the body of its heat,
while the hot solution carries boat
with it, and thus adds to the mainten
ance of the normal temperature. Tho
apparatus is simple a metal or glass
pipette to go into the vein, a rubber
tube three or four feet long, and an
irrigator bag or vessel."
Samples an Expensive Itsm,
"We out up $95 worth of goods for
samplos yesterday in one department
alone," said a salesman in a retail
store, and the man at the Bilk counter
added : "Our expenditure for samples
was greater than that. If I bad all the
money that has been put into samples
of silk by this store for the last ten
years I should be a rich man." The
carpet aud curtain dealers have a liko
story to tell. The wasto is enormons
in retail samples, and there is in all
considerable stores an annual salo ol
the larger samples, of course at a sac
rifice. Wide-awake women buy them
