Tho Apple as a Timber Tree. In some sections of this country tho tipple tree is looked oil for its product ns a piece of timber, ns well as a fruit producing article. For this reason the old-German fruit growers in the vicin ity of Philadelphia, always aimed to get a nice straight trunk to an apple tree and train it up comparatively high before allowing ir to form a head. .Mod erns have supposed that the chief ob ject to be gained by this method of training was in order to facilitate plowing operations, but the ultimate end In having a good trunk for timber purposes was not forgotten. In this particular region, the wood was used chiefly for shoemakers' lasts—a busi ness which, iu the earlier history of Philadelphia, did much to help the trade of that famous manufacturing center of population. The apple re gions have mostly disappeared front that vicinity: but other sections of the country seem to understand the value of apple tree wood. It is stated ill the Country Gentleman that a. fruit grower of Cayuga sold to a well-known linn of saw makers of Philadelphia Dission 6c Sons—the trunks of some of their trees, which were cut away because the trees had grown too closely to gether, to tin' value of sr>oo. In this case, the wood was of course used for tho handle of saws.—Median's. Why She Wanted a Continuance. • An old lawyer once told about a case he had, but which lie didn't keep. An old Irishwoman sent for him in great haste oue day. She wanted him to meet her in the criminal court, lie hastened to the court house all out of breath. The woman's son was about to be placed on trial for burglary. When tho lawyer entered tlie court room the old woman rushed up to him and in an excited voice said: "Mr. B , Oi want ye to git a con tinyance for me b'y .Timmie." "Very well, madam," replied the law yer. "I will do so if 1 can, hut it will be necessary to present to the court some grounds for a continuance. What shall I say V" "Shure, ye can jist tell the court oi want a contiuyance till oi can get a better lawyer to try the case." The lawyer nearly fainted when lie heard this, and after telling the woman that site would have to get another law yer to get tlie continuance he hurried back to his oflico a very angry man. Deep Breathing. Cultivate the habit, of breathing through the nose and taking deep breaths. If this habit was universal, there is little doubt that pulmonary af fections would be decreased one-half. An English physician calls attention to this fact, that deep and forced respira tions will keep tlie entire body in a glow in tlie coldest weather, no matter uow thinly one may be clad. He was rdmself half frozen to death one night, and began taking deep breaths and keeping the air in ids lungs as long as possible. The result was that he was thoroughly comfortable in a few min utes. The deep respirations, lie says, stimulate the blood currents by direct muscular exertion, and cause tho en tire system to become pervaded with :he rapidly-genera led beat. Medical lieport.

Bulletin No. 19 of the South Carolina •Stat ion is designed to show the possi bilities of tho dairy business under tho conditions which prevail in the South. In its directions how to select and breed cows it epitomizes the knowledge gained by experiment at different stations throughout the coun try. The value of different feeds and the best and most economical methods of using them arc given in the bulletin, which also treats of stables and fasten ings, milk and milking, cream and butter, cheese-making, dairy by-pro duct?, etc. It is a simple, concise and eminently practical handbook which possesses considerable value and must prove of assistance to the farmer who is noxious io engage in some line of production that promises more re muneration than cotton-growing. USES TOR POTATO TOPS, Since the fungus nature of potato rot has becomo known, farmers arc less inclined to draw their potato tops to tho barn yard than they used to be. No quicker way of spreading the fungus can be devised than mixing it uitli fermenting manure. Neither should cattle be fed the rotten pota toes from the cellar during the winter. Some of the worst affected pieces will be rejected by the cow and be thrown into the manure pile. Tho potato stalks often arc affected by the fungus when it does not reach tho potato tubers. But the potato top has valu able mauurial properties audit should not bo wasted. It is very rich in potash, and as it rots very quickly, it makes the best covering lor straw berry plants late in the fall. The vines will bo rotted down early in the spring, and will not need to bo re moved. Tliey will furnish sufficient protection in winter without danger of smothering the strawberry plants, and iu spring will make a rich mulch that will help the growth of the berry crop.—Boston Cultivator. PREPARING FOR THE WINTER DAIRY. Don't be guilty of tlie carelessness or unbusincss-liko thoughtlessness of having cows served now or during the next three months so they will come in during the flush of feed and flood of milk. Neither cream nor butter brings so much then, and is really difficult to dispose of. If the cows rest any time, let theni rest then (while farm work is driving), and calve in July, August or September. Coming iu at this timo they will give more milk thau they would otherwise do when milk and all dairy products are high, and more nearly equalize the work of tho year. Some foolishly fear it will be impossible to get the cows with calf if service is delayed, but this proved to be a fallacy. The cow's condition should be watched and she should be treated patiently while in season, but tho time when she is next to calve may be controlled ns most things in business life. Na ture calls for ninety per cent, of the calves in spring, when even a calf will scarcely sell because there nrcsomany of them. But the sensible farmer does not always let nature dominate. He has the market and other artificial conditions to meet, andmust cultivate fresh cows at tho periods of greatest profit.—New England Homestead. TICKING AND MARKETING THIC QUINCE. The error of many growers is the time of picking and the manner of handling. As quinces do not blow off like apples or pears, many growers pick when convenient and that may be only ufter they have becomo yollow. An experience of years in growing, buying and shipping quinces causes tho writer to believe there is a right time to pick ; that two days before the time is too curly, and two days after that right time is too late for the good of the fruit. A little too early, the fruit is not well colored and it does not present its best appearance in market; a little too late, especially if the weather be warm, and it is over ripe, and it is just then that black spot, where it exists, gets in its work rapidly. People arc cautioned, over and over again to handle fruit carefully, and this applies more to quinces than to any other fruit. A slight bruise, from dropping into tho basket or turning into tho barrel, in loity-eight hours has become an ill-looking brown patch. Black packing in tho barrel is disastrous, for Truit carelessly put up this way will hardly bring freight charges. The moving about of speci mens during transit, perhaps for hun dreds of miles, is ruination to the whole package. Another thing to be observed is to pack and ship at once, or as soon as they are taken from the bushes. Tho writer's own quinces, while no better than many others, have for many years sold for from fifty cents to a dollar pel barrel more than average quinces on account of the care iu pick ing and packing which made them show well in market. Tho proverbial "handle like eggs" applies very much to tho marketing of quinces.—Ameri- can Agriculturist. CATTLE RAISING. In cattle raising much of the profit depends upon tho ekill of the feeder and the maturity of tho breed, two points that were formerly never con sidered. Feeding theu consisted in supplying the animal with sufficient fcod to keep him alive and to fatten ] him if necessary. The quality of the x food was not generally considered, . | nor was there much trouble taken to . find out whether it was a suitable > ; ration. The question of early ma- I i turity was never raised, because un* } j known, the common stock of tho coun \ try always maturing late. . ; All this is now altered. The various I • kinds of feed and the best methods of j ! using them have become favorite sub jects for discussion and disagreement. . while the experiment stations, with I their innumerable tables and formulas . I by which to construct a "well-balunced j ration" add greatly to the general cn , lighteument and sometimes to tho t general bewilderment, for feeding is , not and cannot lie an exact science, f because tho matter of price is one of . the prime factors iu the calculation > how to produce the greatest amount l at the least possible cost. This is just I where the skill of the feeder comes in, 1 and this is where experience counts. , , He has learned the cheapest kinds of feed in his locality and tho propor tions in which to mix them, and ho ( 1 knows whether it is best to produce or purchase them. He lias also'realized . the value of variety in the feed. Tho introduction of the improved ■ breeds lias brought up tho question of I • early maturity, with which wc arc all now familiar. Tho quicker the stock can bo fitted for market the greater the profit. Early maturity means tho largest proportion of muscle or lean meat for tho least food eaten, as well I as the attainment of this condition at the earliest possible age. All growth t j is made from what is eateu in excess I of the amount necessary to support | life, and the quicker it reaches tho stage best fitted for food not only will [ it have cost less per pound, but it will t have developed the tenderest and tho ' largest amount of lean meat. These two factors are tho prime considera j tiousof the cousumer, and the feeder „ who caters to them receives the larg est returns for his work. This is so well recognized that all progressive cattlemen now feed off* as early as pos sible.—New York World. GOOD HOGS VALUABLE. 1 It is difficult for some farmers to appreciate the true value of good hogs for breeding purposes. This is true 1 as much in the ranks of the well-to-do stock feeders as it is amoug tho poorer 1 gran grower?, who tremble to think , of investing a cent beyond the iutriu | sic pork value of breeding swine, i In the case of a brood sow, that lias tlie fattening quality, which all im ! proved hogs should have, that trans mitted to tho offspring furnishes a lit ter of half a dozen with the capacity of early maturity, the superiority should be easily noted. The pig that grows and fattens at 250 days of age into 250 pounds weight at a total of food equivalent to but four-fifths of tho amount fed to an ordinary "good pig," is surely worth searching for. The improved swiue of the country comprise a good proportion of vigor ous feeder and with disposition to ap propriate their food to their growth and the storing away of fat us well as flesh. I With right selection, by tho exer , cißo of proper judgment, tho hog breeders may produce from a single litter of thoroughbred pigs one-fourth more pork, to say the least, than from tho same number of the com mon sort. The pork, too, sells uuder all conditions lor fully one-tenth , more per pound. These results follow, as a rule, 11: o use of a good sire, and with due diligence in procuring tho ; best high grade or pure bred dams, a j better showing can be made. Six litters ordinarily furnish thirty substantial pigs. On the basis of 250 pounds weight at eight months, and one-fiflh of this us the result of using a pure bred sire, wo should have to his credit fifty pounds per head, or for thirty pigs in growth into ma turity 1500 pounds additional of pork, worth ordinarily $1 per hundred in the farmer's yard, thus placing to the credit of the improved sire alone SOO. Added to this conservative estimate 1 the gaiu which would accrue were both sire and dams of the highest or . der, and SIOO would bo a moderate • limit to place on tho increased value | of the exercise of brains, and diligent , care to get tho best, and to do the i best in every way on each lot of a | half dozen sows, bred in the modern j methods of wide-awake, thinking j farmers, ' Of course, the averago farmer will attain the above results on twice the number of litters, if lie exercises or* nary care. The ordinary increased | value of a boar for such results is but sls. Where sixty mature hogs are grown from tlie use of a good sire, the profit ou this $25 sire (allowing $lO ; lor commercial value) where but a ; speculation of sls is made amounts to eight times, or on but thirty pigs four times tho sum ventured. The profit : net on tho thirty pigs, $45, will ordi narily pay all the taxes and more on the average farm. It will also pay for , more than one aero of the average farm. It thus follows that it pays to think about the hogs. It is more im portant still to act promptly, and se cure good breeding stock before the season is passed for selecting tho best.—Farm, Field and Fireside.

A NEW CANNING APPARATUS. A new canning apparatus that is finding much fnvor with tho house keepers, nnd with teachers of cooking, lias a fiat vessel somewhat like a low tin box, into which are fitted one, two, three, or four cylinders, according to the size of tho apparatus bought. These cylinders aro each provided with a pntent cover, with a handle. The fruit is placed at once in the glass jar, nnd set inside the cylinder, where it is cooked by steam. Tho box in which the cylinders are placed is filled with water, and has at the side a steam whistle and combiuod filter, It is oluimcd for the fruit preserved in this way that tho forcing of the steam into the contents of the jnr, thus driving out tho air, kills all bacteria, and gives tho fruit a much more natural Havor thau that cooked] from tho bot tom in an ordinnry preserving kgttle. As the fruit is quickly cooked whilo it is covered, and is sealed as soon as cooked, there is no opportunity for it to lose its aroma. Little time is con sumed, as the fruit has oDly to be handled onee, and in the case of very soft fruits thoy do not lose their shape by handling several times. Vege tables ore also easily canned by this process, and with a better flavor and more likelihood of keeping than by the old way. The apparatus can be used over gas, oil or coal stoves. The water and sugar added to different fruits are heated to tho boiling poiut, skimmed, and poured over the fruit after it is paoked in the jars, and just before steaming.—New York Post. BULKS OP PICKLING AND RECIPES. Use uono but tho best vinegar nnd boil in a porcelain kettle, never in metal. It is bost not to boil tho vin egar, as in this way it is weakened; bring it only to the scalding point be fore pouring it over the pickles. A lump of alum tho size of a small nut meg scalded with the cucumber or gherkin pickles makes thejn crisp aud tender, but too much is injurious. Pickles should be kept in a dry, cool collar, in glass or stoneware; look nt them frequently nnd remove all tho soft ones. If white specks appear in the vinegar, drain off aud seald, add ing a handful of sugar to each gallon, and pour again over the pickles. Keep pickles from tho air and see that the vinegar is at least two inches over tho top of pickles in the jar. A dry, wooden spoon or ladle should bo usod in handling pickles aud is tho only one that should touch them iu tho jars. Pickles are not noted for whole somo qualities, but if they must bo eaten it is best to raako them at home. Sweet Pickled Cucumbers—Prepare and quarter ripo cucumbers, take out seeds, clean, lay in brino (that will float an egg) for nine days, stirring every day, take out and put iu clean water one day; lay in alum water overnight; make syrup of one jiiut good vinegar, one pouud brown su gar, two tablespoonfuls each broken cinnamon bark, mace and pepper; make syrup of three pints sugar to one quart vinegar enough to cover the slices, lay them in and cook till ten der. Citron Pickle—Cut your melon in pieces nnd boil in salted water until tender, then drain nnd add three quarts vinegar, two pounds sugar aud ouo-half pound cassia buds. Boil live minutes. Ripe cucumbers or water melon rinds will do as well as tho citron molon. Small Cuoumber Pickles—Wash and wipe 100 small cucumbers aud placo thorn injurs; cover them with boiliug brine strong enough to float nn egg, let stand twenty-four hours. Then take them out, wipe, and.place in olean jars and cover with hot vinegar spiced with onion, twelvo whole cloves, one ounce mustard seed and three blades of mace. They will bo ready for use in two weeks. Cucumber Catsup—Grate tho cu enmbers and strain oft' the water through a colauder. Add six largo onions chopped fine to one gallou of the grated and strained cucumbers. Add vinegar, salt, cayenne pepper and horse radish to taste. Bottle without cooking. Pyfer Pickles—Halt pickles down dry for ten days, soak in fresh water one day, pour off water, place in por celain lccttle, cover with water aud vinegar nnd add ono teaspoon pulver ized alum to each gallon. Place ono night on stove which had fire in dur ing day, wash aud put iu jar with oloves, allspico, pepper, horse radish and onions or garlic, boil fresh vin egar and pour over all. In two weeks they will be ready for use. These pickles are always fresh and crisp aud aro made much more easily than in tho old fashioned way by keeping in brine. Piokled Onions—Pour boiling brine over the small button onions, let them stand twenty-four hours, then drain and cover with hot vinegar spiced to taste. Chowchow—One largo head red cabbage, large cauliflower, two quarts each very small string beans, green tomatoes, cucumbers and onions ; cut cabbage into quarters nnd remove the core, then shave iu very thin slices, break up the cauliflower into flower ets but leave all others whole. Mix together thoroughly and add one pint tine salt and lot stand over night. Pickled Cabbage—Cut the size you wish, put in boiling water with a little salt, boil twenty minutes, drain and place in jar, Spice vinegar to taste, heat and pour on the cabbage.—New England Homestead. A train on tho Great Northern Rail way ran into a forest fire in the State of Washington the other day aud was stopped iu the midst of tho fire by a blazing tree, which fell across the track.
