A
THE
SERVANT
PROBLEM.
FROM SMITH'S
MAGAZINE.
Anne O'Hagan, who contributes to
each number of Smith' Magazine,
tells In an article in the last number
how a friend of hers arrived at a sat
isfactory solution of the servant
problem. In an interview, she allows
.he friend to tell the story in her own
words. Here It is In a nutsh?!!;
"I haunted the offices, and finally
I took to haunting the emigrant
homes and places. I caught Delia
fresh from the old sod, so to speak.
i think It was the nice, generous
)width between her eyes and the neat-
j uess of her hair that won me. A girl
with such glossy hair must be ca
pable of being Instructed In tidy ways,
must even have a little vanity to
which judicious appeal could be
made! And a girl with eyes set like
that would never do anything mean
never leave you in the lurch, or wear
your best petticoat when you were
oway, or hide the pieces of the dishes
she broke and then deny all knowl
edge of them.
"So I took Delia,' whose culinary
wlsidom wa3 merely how to boll po
tatoes and how to serve buttermilk,
and who had never seen a gas-jet In
her life! She had to learn every
' , thing but she didn't nave to unlearn
e single thing. In these two years
ehe has become an excellent cook, a
deft waitress, and she can do the rest
of the work acceptably; but she
doesn't have to, often.
. "I am firmly of the opinion that it
takes what we call a lady to keep
the sitting-room lamps in condition,
T example. I do that each day. I
dust the sitting-room, water tho
plants, freshen the flowers, see that
there Is wood In the wood-basket,
make the beds, and wipe up the floors
with a long-handled mop. You see
we have no carpets, and In the Bleep-ing-rooms
no rugs too heavy for me
to lift easily.
"If there are almonds to be salted,
I salt them. Delia has learned how,
though: you see, managing as I do,
ehe thinks that I do a good manv
things In the cooking line because I
am so extremely fastidious, and she
forthwith becomes ambitious to show
me that she can do as well as I. It
ithere are many grape-fruit to b
freed from seeds and tough skin, I
do It; I prepare the salad and 1 mix
the salad-dressing except, as a great
favor to her, I have allowed her to
"" do It all often enough to be able to
do It In an emergency.
"On washdays I lunch down-town
with Walter, so that she won't have
to bother with me at all between
breakfast and dinner-time. We have
a simple dinner that night, and any
other night when she has had a very
trying day.
"We use a table-cloth very seldom.
I think people imagine I want to
ehow off my mahogany. It is good
looking, and I do like It when the
candle-light and the flowers shine In
Its surface, nut It's chiefly because
dollies are easier to do up that I pre
fer them. I wear dark silk shirt
waists a good deal fcr every day
It's always washable silk, so that t
can be as fresh as possible; but at
the same time they don't get soiled
so soon, and doing them up Is the
easiest thing In the world.
"When we have any dessert at all
It Is likely to be jelly and cheese-.
iusarlly, I suppos?, It was because
Walter was fond of It; hut second
arily because there was no labor for
A Delia attached to It. Often we begin
dinner with a little relish caviar or
anchovy or smoked salmon Instead
of with soup, so that she will not
' have that extra cooking to do. And
a few Judiciously bestowed theater
tickets keep her perpetually grateful.
"You say you think that such con
sideration would spall her, and that
you don't see why I don't give her
the best room In the house, the larg
est rocking-chair, and become scullery-maid
myself? You're talking
nonsense. Delia isn't spoiled, be
cause I thoughtfully selected an un
spollable kind an affectionate, grate
ful kind. And it isn't consideration
for her it's for myself. If she doesn't
have so much cooking to do, 10 much
washing and Ironing, so much dish
washing, she can do for me the things
that I chiefly want done.
"She can bring me my tea In the
afternoon decently Instead of slopped
on to a tray because she is in such
a, mad rush to get to her vegetable
peeling. She has time to brush my
-skirts and my boots. She can watt
upon the table with an unfturried air,
' which Is a great aid to pleasant In
tercourse. And she isn't sullen and
, unhappy. She likes to stay with me
as much as I like to have her.
"Really I think I have discovered
a solution of the one-servant prob
lem. My solution is, you see keep
two servants, being yourself the sec
ond one!"
MODERN PIED PIPERS.
Their Business That of Ridding Big
8tores of Rats,
professional rat catchers do a
thriving business in Chicago. In tha
downtown department stores and in
the wholesale houses along ths rlvsr
an endless warfare against rats and
mice constantly Is carried on. Ib
some of these places the rats grow
so big and so bold that to speak cf
their exploits would bring down
charge of nature faking on the nap
rator. The professional rat catchers,
of whom there are a score In the
loop district, tell some remarkable
stories concerning the big rodents
with which they have had dealings.
Some of the department stores cm'
ploy their own rat catchers. At Car
son, Flrle, Scott & Co.'s retail store
there Is a man whose duty It Is to
keep the store free from rats and
mice. This firm's rat catcher works
at night and uses a small bore shot
gun with which to put his enemlea
out of commission. Instead of shot,
which would tear holes In the walls
and ceilings, he loads his gun with
salt balls. These are used to stun
the rats sufficiently for him to get
at them with a heavy stick. Despite
the efforts of the professional rat
catcher the rodents Increase so rapid
ly that It Is necessary every six
months or so to go after them with
ferrets.
On West Madison street there Uvea
a man who keeps a supply of rat
catching ferrets constantly on hand
His name Is George Sells, and what
he doesn't know about rats and meth
ods of catching them Isn't worth
knowing. He contracts to rid a build'
lug of rats just as an architect would
contract to put a new roof on It
When Sells starts to rid a building
of rats he first plugs all the rat holes
he can find. After that he turns his
trained ferrets, thirty of them, loose
In the building. The ferrets go Into
the holes after the rats and then, to
quote Sells, there is a "scatterment,
The average rat would commit suicide
before It would alio Itself to be cap
tured by a ferret. The rat3 know
that once their necks are caught In
the sharp teeth of the ferrets there
Is .no hope for them.
Not long ago Sells was cleaning
out the rats In the Carson-Plrle-Scott
store, in State street. About 9 o'clock
at night, when all was still In the
place and the rats were holding high
carnival, Sells turned the ferrets
loose. Instantly there was such a
sqeaklng that it seemed to the watch'
man that an earthquake had struck
Chicago and that the mighty steel
girders of the building were complain
ing of tho strain forced upon them.
The rats ran everywhere. They Jump
ed Into the elevator shaft In such
numbers that Adolph Swanson, one
of the janltn-s, said he was kept busy
half the night scooping them up Into
baskets. Sells who knew what would
happen when the ferrets were turned
loose, had left the windows up on the
alley side of the big store and through
these the rats jumped recklessly to
the hard pavement below. In less
than an hour after the ferrets began
operations there was not a rat or a
mouse In the store. Chicago Tribune.
TOURISTS FIND ICELAND.
It Is Described as Fascinating
Sturdy Iceland Ponies.
Many misconceptions as to Iceland
exist in our country. It may sur
prise many, says the National Geo
graphic Magazine, to know that the
Icelanders who have emigrated to
America are said by their relatives
at home to complain bitterly of the
extreme cold of our winters.
Mr. Halldor Bjarnarson, a Luther
an minister on the north coast of Ice
land, writing of the past winter in his
district, says that at no time did he
observe the temperature to dnJii be
low plus 5 degrees Fahrenheit. That
was almost on the Arctic Circle.
Two lines of steamships maintain
regular all the year sailings between
Denmark, Scotland and Iceland by
way of the Faroe Islands. The single
passage to Reykjavik, the capital of
the Island, on the southwest coast.
requires from three to four days from
Lelth, or five to seven days from Cop
enhagen,
The steamers of those lines are an
nually carrying more and more tour
ists to an Island which is but just be
coming recognized as one of the moo!
interesting and fascinating lands in
the world.
Excluding meals, which cost $1 a
day, the round trip fare between
either Copenhagen or Lelth and Ice
land Is about 130.
Barring the possibility of driving
on a narrow carriage rond for about
one day's ride from the capital, and
possibly a less distance from sonve
of the smaller towns, all travel must
be made on pony back. Much has
been written about the Icelandic pony.
He is individual, a type by himself,
and the word "sturdy" is his best
description.

FARM NOTES.
It Is very often beneficial to pull
both the flight and tall feathers that
are slaw in molting. It seems to
have a magical effect in changing the
condition of the bird.
At this time of the year the best
of attention should be given the stock.
Molting Is often the stumbling block
for tho young fancier, due to the lack
of proper care.
The bath must not be forgotten; it
Is probatfly more necessary now than
at any other time.
It is a good plan to add a few
ilrops of tincture of Iron to tho drink
ing water.
To stop breeding during the molt
ing period, separate the sexes this
month.
No better time than now to give
the loft a good coat of whitewash.
Be kind and gentle In handling
stock.
Mix common sense with your meth
ods, and you will save much trou
ble. Keep the pigeons from worrying
Regularity In feeding will prevent it
Fresh water In filthy drinking ves
sels does not Improve matters much.
Take pride In keeping things tidy,
and do everything In a systematic
manner.
The good qualities of birds are de
monstrated by the amount of atten
tion and care given them.
Have every fixture of the loft mov-
able, so that It can be readily cleaned
from lice and dirt.
Study and care, not luck and large
talk, are the elements of success In
the pigeon loft.
Don't crowd fifty pairs of birds
where twenty-live pairs can scarcely
live.
We prefer a good roofing paper to
shingles for the roofs of pigeon
houses. From "Pigeons for Profit,"
in the Farm Journal.
MOST POPULAR BREED.
Plymouth Rocks have of late years
become very popular. Partly the re
sult of their good qualities, Judicious
ly advertised, and partly because they
are an American bird. True patriot-
Ism and love of country Is deeply
rooted In us.
These birds are good Americans
have the true Yankee spirit, taking
care of No. 1. Having plenty of go
ahead activeness, they are great for
agers, being good eaters, and will of
ten Intrude where they are not want
ed. It Is amusing how an old cock of
this breed will dodge around and
watch to steal a few bites from the
young chicks when you feed them.
Their stealing propensity Is equal to a
southern colored "gemman's," and
their begging capacity can only be
equaled by a third term brass clad
tramp. The hens are good average
Kyers of nice large eggs, make ex
cellent mothers, but, are a little heavy
for hatching and brooding quite young
chicks.
The young grow rapidly, making
good poultry for summer and early
fall demand, being a nice, plump,
clean, yellow-legged bird.
Their color is good, but for breed
ing they murt be mated Judiciously;
and even with the best of mating
many specimens do not come true to
feather.
They are hardy and vigorous birds
and with good care anil protection
will repay the labor spent upon them.

PULLETS DYING.
I have lost several fine pullets. The
symptoms are dysentery, disinclina
tion to eat, apparent sleepiness, sk
iing witn nead tucked under wine
most of time, seldom opening the
eyes, even when head is raised. I
have one now that has been In this
condition for a week or more. For
the last two mornings she has drunk
greedily, but refuses to eat. H. E.
Brownell. (Evidently these fowls are
troubled with some character of liver
complaint. This kind of ailment has
become more prevalent In the past
few years than ever before. It is
thought by specialists that much of
this trouble comes from the tise of
egg-producing foods that contain an
timony, fenugreek, or other materia!
mat over-excites tho producing or
gans and injures tho liver. Fowls
not having a stomach, the liver may
be called a sieve or strainer for the
bowels. The Injurious remedies pass
ing through the liver produce tho
ailments causing diarrhea, liver trou
ble, going light, and often an ailment
that people call cholera. When the
condition becomes so feverish that
they gorge themselves with water,
this aggravates the trouble. Fowls
that reach this condition might as
well be destroyed and their bodies
burned. . The remedy Is to prevent
such ailments through keeping the
poultry houses perfectly clean and
feeding only such foods as nature In
dicates would be best. No kind of
treatment will cure them.) Country

MERITS OF ALFALFA
Alfalfa, that extraordinary plant for
xat
producing wealth and doing wonders
to farms, Is occupying an Important
place in' the plans of the Department
of Agriculture, the experiment ' sta'
Hons, and the agricultural colleges.
Through their efforts largely it has
rapidly gained success In cultivation
throughout a vast area. The value of
the crop as hay this year Is supposed
to be $100,000,000. and If the plans
and efforts now under way to pro.
mote its extension receive a reason
uuie reward tne value of the futurn
crop will be several times the pres
ent amount.
This forage plant Is a chemical lab
oratory In which nitrogen Is taken
from the air. It Is a soil Improver
of the highest merit. As a flsh-fnrm-Ing
food for growing live stock, and
as a milk and egg producer, It Is un
excelled by any plant of large pro
duction. It grows 2 1-2 tons of hay to the
acre as nn average for the whole
country where It Is grown, or twice
the average for all kinds of hay, and
besides this, Is more nutritious than
other hays.
The cultivation of alfalfa has been
pressing eastward until now It has
established Itself as far as the longi
tude of eastern Kansas, except In
southern Texas. It Is established In
some area still farther to the east
ward In spots In Arkansas, In south
ern Wisconsin, northern Illinois, and
northern Indiana, In the limestone re
gions of Kentucky and Tennessee, and
In the southeastern corner of Michi
gan. This plant U scml-establlshed In
Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Ohio, and
is making Its way In Illinois and In
diana. Elsewhere the growing of this
plant Is mostly experimental, but with
promise of success. Secretary James
Wilson, Department of Agriculture.
CAUSE OF LAMENESS.
An English horseman writing to
the London Live Stock Journal says
that first of ail, shoeing is probably
responsible for more lameness than
any other causa. Shoes raise the
frog off the ground and prevent the
concussion which Is necessary to the
health of this pad; they may directly
lead to lameness through defective
construction or attachment; or they
may, by their shape (calks, etc.),
cause strain nnd consequent lame
ness In some part of the leg. The
mere concussion (emphasized by
shoes) of trotting along a macadamiz
ed road must be very trying to all
the ligaments, tendons, and points of
the horse's legs, so that the wonder
is, not. wo much that there are so
many unsound horses In England, as
that there are so many sound ones.
COST OF SILOING.
Figures have been gathered by the
Department of Agriculture from some
31 farms with reference to the time
and labor consumed In filling a silo.
A rate of 15 fents nn hour was mado
for men and the same for a team of
horses. Engine hire was rated at
$4.50 per day, Including the engin
eer, twine at 11 1-2 cents a pound,
coal at $5 a ton, and gasoline at 13
cents a gallon. Ten hours were con
sidered a day's work. The cost of
silage storage, as determined by this
investigation, varied from 40 to 80
cents on the various farms. The av
erage yield per acre was 9.1 tons and
the average tost per ton of silage 04
cents. The average amount of silage
cut dally per man was 4.9 tons, and
the average cost per acre for putting
the corn In the silo $5.98. Indiana
Farmer.
THE FOOD OF THE MOLE.
Prof. Byche, of the University of
Kansas, who has lately made a care
ful Inspection of the stomachs of a
large number of moles, reports that
their diet consisted of earthworms,
43.3 per cent.; ground beetles, 27.7
per cent.; grubs, 28.8 per cent.; vege
table matter, 3.7 per cent, and Insect
eggs, 7 3 per cent. As a result of his
Investigations he contends that the
mole Is a friend rather than an enemy
of the lawn keeper and gardener, his
only fault being the somewhat un
sightly ridges which he now and then
makes in his travels. Weekly Wit
ness. A COW'S APPETITE.
A cow with a finical appetite is not
a profitable milk cow; neither is the
cow with a prodigious appetite, that
turns her feed Into fat Instead of into
milk, a fit cow for dairy work. Make
every cow come up to your mark for
dairy performance or cut her out.

CLEANLINESS AND SUNSHINE.

stables as in the human habitation.
They mean death to disease germs
