Work of Oxen.
We have known a man to buy a yoke
of three-year-old steers In the spring,
work them hard six days In the week,
giving them good hay and about four
quarts of meal a day until October,
when the work lessened and the grain
was Increased. In November he sold
them as beef for about $30 more than
he paid for them. If horses had done
the same work they would have wunt
efHmore grain and probably would
have been valued much less In the fall
than tbey cost In the spring.
It Is snld thnt oxen might not
work as well on the reaper or mowing
machine, but they might also. We
lave had three or four year cattle that
"would walk for miles as fast as any
pair of horses and force many horses
to trot a part of the way to keep up
with them and a pair of old cattle that
walked faster than the ordinary farm
horse. A part of that was due to their
having been trained to walk quickly,
ud a part was due to the breed.
mull cattle like the Devon, Jerseys
or yrshlres are naturally active and
easily learn to walk fast, while the
larger Durhams and Hereford like to
move more leisurely, and this Is true
of grades as well as of thoroughbreds.

KILLING FARM POULTRY.

A useful article for those who have

In the Illustration. Take a strip of Iron
one Inch by oneelghlh of an Inch and
thirty Indies long, such as an old buggy
tire, and bend In the center, so that the
straps c.iino parallel, leaving a slot in
the center the thickness of the blade.
For the blade any sheet of steel three
Inches wide and nine Inches long on
top will do a piece of an old scythe
flattened out, for Instance.
The ends of the blade can bo beveled

drill holes (A A) about two Inches
from each end and fasten with soft
Iron or copper rivets. A piece of the
same material as the straps can now
be cut equal to the remaining lengths
of the slot, holes drilled at B H. about
one Inch from each end and riveted as
before. Drill a hole at O for hanging
up, sharpen well, and tlm tool Is ready
for use. Drive two spikes on a slant
about an Inch apart Into a block (see
Fig. 2) and place the chicken's neck
between them. In this way the neck
can be nicely stretched, and a combi
nation of the two Ideas will save both

Composting Manure.
In Intensive farming, truck growing
and the like composting is still in
vogue, but human labor Is now so ex
pensive that manure ought to be bnn
dled as little as possible, which ,means
that it ought to go as directly as pos
sible from the stable to the field. For
the sake of the animals It ought not to
be piled close to the stable. It costs
too much to haul It twice once to
some compost heap and then away.
Lime should never be added to ma
nure heaps. This rule is Invariable.
Gypsum may be used In the stables or
spread on the tops of manure piles.
Untreated rock phosphate may be mix
ed with the manure with good results.
lletter apply the manure directly to
the laud where that method Is possi
ble. Use good judgment in piling the
mninire not to allow too much nir to
circulate through the pile. Tack rath
er than pile loosely. Ou land to 1e
sown with corn or rye by all means
spread the manure directly from the
stable. Add neither lime nor potash.

IiOAD-IMPROVEMENT
WHAT HAS &EEN ACCOMPLISHED IN
RHODE ISLAND.
Fine HlghwuM Have Been Ballt la
Kverr section nf the State With
Onod Heaulta The Repair nntl, Care
of Honda.
Much has been done In Ithode Island
to Improve the highways during the
past four years, and there has been a
popular demand of the people of the
state that there should be built a uet
work of thoroughly up to date and sub
:t.inllal roads, not extravagant, not
cheap, but u system where at a mini
mum of expenditure, yet conserving
every qualification of utility anil wear
ing quality, there should be a service
for every part of the slate. Hoads
have beeu built In every section of the
. tate to the furtherance of Its social,
moral and Intellectual Interests, and
,:i ve Is not one part of it that has not
;e!t the rebound.
In describing the work done the
fourth annual report of the state board
of public roads of Ithode Island says:
From every side there goes up the
pica for better highways ami improved
roads, and It Is being answered not In
l ho spirit of mere enthusiasm, but out
of cold hard sense, for men are coming
to see the real value of such roads to
Iho ordinary business and commercial
life of the day. Surely It Is the best
public policy for the state to keep Its
highways, its feeders of life and com
merce. In the best possible state of
preservation, for the more compact the
llfi of the community the more neces
sary do Improved, well laid, well kept
roads become.
The popular movement for good
rouds, according to the very nature of
the problem, cannot be localized. There
fore the question of a bond Issue Is
one that touches the whole state and
one on which the whole state should be
heard. There is no question of the ex
penditure of public money which Is
more vital than this, and none where
a greater number re benetlted. Hoads
cannot In any sense be considered sec
tional or built for the accommodation
of the few. On the other hand, Inas
much as the future Is to reap as much
if not more of the harvest of utility
and Is to receive equal benefit. It Is on
ly fair that It should pay a proportion
ate part of the expenses.
The repair of the roads Is of vital lm-'
port. It means the saving of the time,
money and engineering skill which
have already been Invested. It Is a
question of waste against that of
economy. It Is a mistaken Iden that a
macadam road, once laid, needs no fur
ther attention. On the contrary, to
preserve Its fundamental structure It
should be cared for continually. The
value of a macadam road does not lie
in the fact that It Is never going to
wear out, hot in the regulation of
grade, the hardened roadbed, the char
acter of drainage that It gives.
The engineering force can make the
necessary repairs to better advantage
while at work upon the section being
extended than should they be obliged
to return to It. Repairs should not he
left to outside control, which at best
would be Irregular, spasmodic and un
satisfactory. The causes of disintegra
tion are not altogether travel and
usage. There are also those of atmos
pheric and climatic conditions, those
due to the nature of the stone of which
the road was primarily constructed. A
ri.idbi'd will not wear alike In all
places. Were it so there would be
needed only the occasional extensive
reconstruction. It b.-ea '.: in patches,
and the mending p.'jcess is therefore
constantly necessar.-.
During the year l:;.if untracts were
awarded for the c vntrnctlon of 22.08
miles of maeadar.. rud, ti be built up
on the highways U:. .'n'ed In the plan
o." Improvement as :. !i;ite J by the gen
e al assembly, mnkli:.? a total of flfty
:;even miles of mac:; '.am road eoniplet

ment. '
Now that the ele 'jrs of the state
have voted to nr.V.i i W.e the expendi
ture for th's ;mb"c ! :provement It Is
ir.:t reasonable t y. -same that they
oslre and expect t h ive the use of
the In-proved, rivi'.i ns soon as they
ci be Jinllcixwly 1 id economically
V.:::;. We beK.r.w I; i. v over, that they
would not approve of an undue haste
!n the work, which would result In
roads of an inferior quality or of an
unnecessary cost of construction. Sci
entific road building on the scale now
being done by the state, like every
other large building enterprise, re
quires adequate time as well as money
for its proper completion.
Bill For Good Roada.
Representative Sheppard of Kansas
has introduced a bill in congress direct
ing the office of public roads of the
department of agriculture to advise
with the proper state and local authori
ties having jurisdiction over the roads
used for rural free delivery of the
United States malls as to the best
methods of maintaining them In a pass
able condition throughout all seasons
of the year, to suggest necessary alter

said office In tho construction of such
sections of o'ljeet lesson roads along
said routes as are necessary' properly
to Illustrate suitable methods of eon

FOR NEW MEMBERS.
Method of Procedure Outlined by
State Maater Hill of Pennerlvanla.
Applications for membership In a
subordinate grange should be presented
at a regular meeting. The fee should
in each Instance accompany the appli
cation and be placed In the bands of the
secretary, who at the close of the meet
lug Is expected to turn It, along with
the other receipts of the eveulng, over
to the treasurer, taking his receipt for
the full amount. When an application
Is presented. Indorsed on the back by
two members of the grange and accom
panied by the fee, it becomes the duty
of the master to appoint an Investigat
ing committee. It Is expected by the
grange that this committee will, In the
Interval between then and the next reg
ular meeting of the grange, If the appli
cant be Dot personally and well known
to them, make diligent Inquiry con
cerning his character, general habits,
etc.. reporting at the next meeting
either favorable or unfavorable, the
nature of their report having been de
termined by their knowledge or per
sonal findings in regard to the appli
cant. Should the report be presented
as being unfavorable It Is to be re
garded as an expression of the views of
the committee lyon the advisability of
the grange receiving blm, but does not
In any way affect a necessity for taking
the ballot. Unless the application Is
withdrawn by friends the ballot must
be taken Just the same when the report
is unfavorable as though it were favor
able. It Is not legal for a subordinate
grange to ballot upon an application
until after it has been presented to the
grange and laid over until the next reg
ular meeting. At this second regular
meeting, however, the ballot may be
taken and the first two degrees con
ferred if desired. It Is of course well
understood that not more than two de
grees are to be conferred upon a candi
date at the same regular meeting.

How They Got Their Rank i
J. .
lu'lclntil.l
"Horgonnt Mililkln, I wish you to
take thirty men, strike the Tennessee
river at Hrowu's ferry and look out
for a Confederate force snld to be
making for that crossing. The distance
Is about forty miles, and you should
reach the ferry liefore dark tonight."
(Sergeant Millikln ond his thirty men
were soon In the saddle briskly canter
ing westward. Iteachlng the ferry at
sunset and finding no enemy, they
crossed the river and rode oinfor a
few miles. Ity this time the twilight
had faded and It was nearly (lark.
Hearing something ahead, Ml II IK in
halted his command anil listened.
Presently not eighty yards distant he
heard a voice:
"Lieutenant, go back nud tell Colonel
Williams to halt his regiment and go
I Into bivouac. Then go on and order
the other regiments to bivouac, tho
Sixteenth Alabama on the left of tho
road, the Fifty-second- ami Klghteeiitli
Tennessee ou the right. Let the artil
lery remain In the rear."
Millikln heard horses' hoofs receding,
but before they were out of hearing the
same voice said:
"Captain Carter, I wish you would
ride olT Into the woods there where the
cavalry are and tell Colonel Hunt that
we're going to halt here till daylight,
when we'll cross tho ferry and I shall
expect lilm to be on the other side to
cover our crossing before day."
Hushes beside the road wero break
ing before a horse, and Millikln, who
had heard all he wanted to know,
whispered un order to his men to
walk their horses ns silently ns pos
sible to Hit rear, mid after he felt that
they were out of hearing the command
broke Into a trot, then n gallop, till
they reached the ferry. Having crossed
they rode on to headquarters, pressing
fresh horses by the way, and Millikln
rode up to the general's tent bug be-fo:-e
noon.
"General," said the sergeant, "we
struck n force of Infantry, nrtlllery
and cavalry nbout six miles beyond
Brown's ferry. Thoy were to cross at
daylight this morning."
The sergeant was commended for his
effect I vo scouting, und preparations
wero made to rocelve the enemy. A
vedette lino of cavalry was sent out,
back of which skirmishers were de
ployed, nnd the main force of Infantry
and artillery was posted on choice
ground for defense. For two days the
Union troops waited under arms, then'
a scout came In from tlig commander
of the cavalry, who suld thnt the Con
j c '. es must have retreated, for
every avei.uo of approach had been
scouted and no enemy found. Then
the troops were marched back to their
camps. Sergeant Millikln for having
given timely warning though tho
enemy had changed bis plans and thus
rendered the information unnecessary
was made a lieutenant at the first
vacancy.
One night recently at one of the
hmiqucts of the Military Order of the
Loyal Legion two graybeards sat Bide
by side, and, though not acquainted,
fell Into conversation. One was an
Invited guest, who had served In tho
Confederate army, and both held the
rank of major.
"I sometimes feel," said the Con
federate, "that I never performed but
one service to entitle me to the rank
I held, and that was a mere matter of
presence of mind. In the summer of
lSfl2 I was a sergeant In the Sixteenth
Alabama Infantry. I was sent out
from Corinth to discover If tho force
holding north Alabama was pushing
across country to attack us in flank.
One evening when I was many miles
from Corinth, and becoming fearful of
running into a trap, I took two men of
the thirty I commanded ami rode
a nead to search for a place of con
cealment In which to spend the night.
Hearing the sound of horses' boofs
nhead we hid among the trees beside
the road. . A party of cavalry came
along and stopped not far from me. I
knew that If we three men were to
take to our heels we'd be overhauled.
So I ordered my men in a loud voice to
tell imaginary Infantry and artillery
to go Into camp and the cavalry to be
ready to cover our"
The Confederate stopped short His
hearer was staring at him as at a
ghost.
"Do you mean to tell me that you
were the man that gave those orders?"
"I do."
"And there were only three of you?"
"I had but two men with me In that
spot. There were twenty-eight more
half a mile back of me"
The Union ex-offlcer gulped down a
glass of wine, then turned to the other
and said:
"You mentioned, I believe, that you
were promoted for that service. May
I ask why?"
"Well, my general considered my
performance a cool one, and the ne
groes told me that you Yanks were
pushing forward on the other side of
the river 10,000 strong and nearlng
Tuscumbia, I never stopped till I had
carried this news to my general."
"Major," said the Union officer, and
paused.
. "Major," repeated the Confederate
expectantly.
"You and I both reached, the same
rank through a- mistake. I was a ser
geant commanding the troop you met,
and I went back and reported that you
were coming in force. Our men stood
under arms waiting for you. You re
ported 10,000 of us nenring Tuseui
bla. We hadn't half that number, all
told, in north Alabama."
"I reckon," suld the Confederate In
lowered voice, looking about furtive
ly to soo if they had been overheard,
"that we'd bettor not say anything
about how we got our start in rank."
