It Is of a bright black color and occurs at a very slight depth, sometimes on the surface, in beds one to two feet thick. It generally appears under an angle of about 40 degrees, and* In the immedinte vicinity of rock. It is pre sumed to be solidified petroleum, which is often seen there exuding from the earth or floating on the water. In its composition this mineral is similar to the pitch of Trinidad, to the Gilsonite of Utah and the Canadian Albertite, but It Is of a much better quality. The best varieties of "manjak" contained 2 per cent, of water, 70.85 per cent, of volatile organic substances, 20.97 pet cent of ditto solid ones and .18 per cent, of mineral parts. Trinidad pitch contains from 21 to 30 per cent, of wa ter, and about 38 per cent, of ashes, Hence the manjak mineral Is much richer in natural bitumen. It is used, among other purposes, for the insula tion of electrical conduits, for varnish, bituminous concrete and for fuel, mix ed with pent, etc. It may to some ex tent supplant gutta percha as an in sulating medium.—Savannah News.

Mrs. Mart Bollinger, llOtMarianna St., Chicago, 111., to Mrs. Pinkham: 44 1 have been troubled for the past two j*ears with falling of the womb, leucorrhma, pains over ray body, sick headaches, backache, nervonsness and weakness. I tried doctors and various remedies without relief. After taking two bottles of your Vegetable Com pound, the relief I obtained was truly wonderful. I have now taken several more bottles of your famous medicine, and can say that I am entirely cured.'* Mrs. llenby Dorr, No. 800Findley St., Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mrs. Pinkham: 44 For a long time I suffered with chronic inflammation of the womb, pain in abdomeh and bearing-down feeling. Was very nervous at times, and so weak I was hardly able to do any thing. Was subject to headaches, also troubled with leueorrhcea. After doc toring for many months with different physicians, and gettingnorelief, I had given up all hope of being well again when I read of the great good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound was doing. I decided immedi ately to give it a trial. The result was simply past belief. After taking four bottles of Vegetable Compound and using three packages of Sanative Wash I can say I feel like a new woman, I deem it my duty to announce the ftct to my fellow sufferers that Lydia E.

Keeeut experiments at the Utah Station indicate the contrary so far, at least, as concerns the per cent, of fer tile eggs. The comparative size and strength of the chicks is not stated. The percentage of fertility was high est with the early hatched pullets and lowest with the old hens, though the results are not conclusive. The fer tility of eggs averaging five days old was 300 per cent, higher than of eggs averaging twenty-two days old. American Agriculturist. Ration. For Sliccp. For ground food a mixture of 100 pounds of corn meal, 100 pounds of wheat bran and twenty-five pounds of oil meal has been found very satisfac tory. Oats may be substituted for the bran with good results, if the quantity of oil meal is slightly increased. Ground corn and oats mixed in equal proportions is not only a good food, but a fattening one. To produce the best results in fattening sheep they should be regularly dipped during the period. Corn is a highly carbonaceous food and can only be fed to sheep with safety when given with bran or oil meal. With such a ration they may be fed during the fattening period to their full capacity, which would be un safe with a ration wholly or mainly of corn. Manure For Strawberries. Tho strawberry plantation requires very heavy manuring to produce its best yield. Every year on most plants there is a succession of berries, the first and second pickings being al most always larger and finer -than those that ripen later. But if the later season is very wet, as it some times is, we have kuown the later crop to ripen up and be very nearly as good as the first. This suggests that in addition to the top dressing applied in winter there ought to be an additional fertilization, while the crop is forming, and this last should be al ways dissolved in water, so as to be readily available. Nitrate of potash is the best manure to be thus applied. This is saltpetre, land costs five to six eents per pound. But a very small lump dissolved in warm water and ap plied freely will keep the vines fresh and vigorous to the last, and will make a great increase in the size of the fruit. The labor of applying liquid manure is more than its cost, and is greater than can be generally afforded for any other crop than the strawberry. An Easy D ay to Grow Tomatoes. The usual method of raising tomato plants and fruit calls for more work and attention than the ordinary run of garden crops deinaud. Sowing the seed early in hot-beds, the formation and care of which is a matter demand ing much daily attention to details, and the repeated transplanting of the young plants to render them stocky and vigorous, all this requires work, 1 perhaps more work than many very busy people feel like attempting. While this care and labor may be need ful for extra early tomato plnuts, which { are to give early crops, yet it is en- i tircly unnecessary for regular crops of delicious fruit. One can sow the seed directly in the open ground as soon as weather is suitable, or what is still more easily done, throw all good specimens of the tomato (that become affected with rot or are bruised in any way, and so unfitted for sale) upon the manure heap. These tomatoes furnish plenty of seed in the manure to give a volunteer crop of tomato plants upon the corn or potato field upon which this same manure is used. Plenty of good, ripe, late tomatoes, as well as greeu ones, will thus be grown at practically no expense,—ll. Sumner Perkins. Scaly Leg*. A subscriber at Shongaloo, Miss., want 3 remedy for gout or scaly legs; also best means of exterminating fleas. As regards scaly legs, the remedy is simple. The disease, if such it may be termed, being caused by small parasites that bury themselves finder the skin and lay eggs there. The feathered-leg fowls are most subject to the affliction, but even they : -an be kept free of it, if a little core is siven. After the rough scales have ap peared, catch the birds and wash the legs thoroughly in warm water and soap—using a brush if necessary. After this, rub the legs with a mixture of one part sulphur and three parts lard. Repeat the operation daily for three days and the scales will disap pear. A few dropsof kerosene added, will hasten the cure, but if used too freely will burn and irritate the flesh. A friend of this paper suggests an application daily of pure apple vinegar, and says he has tested it with perfect satisfaction. If the roosts are given a coat of kerosene every month throughout the season, not a case of scaly 'legs will appear. As for ridding the premise* of fleas, unless we knew the exact surround- ings it would be rather difficult to suggest a meaus, as one that could be applied in the barn or outbuildings might not be agreeable if used in the residence. A solution of crude carbolic acid sprayed over the ground and on the walls will drive them completely away, but if the residence is infested with them, powdered borax will perhaps be the most effectual remedy. Keep the dogs, hogs and sheep away from the I barn, as it is absolutely impossible tc have them there without having fleas, —Home and Farm. New Facts About an Old Foe. The codling moth should be ban ished. This is not easy. Spraying alone, as generally recommended, will i not do it. The moth is not easily ! poisoned. Lights in the orchard do not attract it. Sticky fly paper will i not hold the larva?. Only four-fifths of the larva; enter at the calyx. Late spraying with paris green alone is not effective. Spraying before the calys closes does much good. Three spray ings at Gibbon saved eighty per cent, of the fruit. In laboratory trials, kero sene emulsion, sprayed while un hatched eggs are on the leaves, is effective. Late sprnying with paris green and bordeaux mixture com bined, with whale-oil soap or with lead acetate and sodium arsenitb, is safe and does some good. Scraping the bark and tacking paper bands around the trunk when the larvm are pupating will catch many. Screens in the cellar windows in spring will con : tine the moths which went in with the apples as larvic in the fall. I suggest that you spray thoroughly with paris green within a week after the blossoms fall, before the calys I closes. Try kerosene emulsion when the eggs are being laid upon the leaves, nbout the first week in June. If this fail 3, use paris green combined with bordeaux mixture instead. Keep the trees smooth and use paper bands around the trunk when the larvie are j ready to pupate, about the last week in June. Remove and kill the larvtc one or two weeks later. Place bands j on again the last week in August, j Leave them until the apples are out of j the orchard,' then gather them up and [ destroy the larvae. Get the balance in spring by screens over tho cellar doors ! and windows. Observe for yoursell how many of these precautions yon can omit.—Professor F. W. Card, of the Nebraska Experiment Station. The Short Cheek Ketn. To keep a horse from putting his j head down and eating or trying to | find something to eat—for, no differ j ence how well the horse is fed, when I he is harnessed and taken out he is j ready for a bite of grass if attainable, I and that is not always pleasant—the check-rein is the resort, though many times when using a team on tho road the check-reins are dispensed with. I prefer the side checks, as they are far more agreeable to the horse and will even better prevent the horse from putting its head to the ground than the over-check when both are loosely used. The over-check wears off the mane, presses down on the head and helps to keep it hot and sometimes makes sore places and mars the horse's face. But the over-check may do if it is long enough and does not have a separate bit for it. Some horses are so physically con structed with the neck high up on the shoulders that their head is high enough without a check-rein, while others may have a low neck and not carry the head well up, and no amount of check-reins will add any grace to their movements or beauty to their carriage. To see a horse's head drawn up out of its natural position looks outlan dish, at times the hot sun blazing down in their eyes so they cannot well see where they are going, and they travel high, something after the style of a blind horse, and they soon get to traveling heavy; then their spring, activity and elasticity are fast leaving them. A horse with a short check-rein is invariably a slow walker and doesn't care to trot unless urged—and who can blame him?—and yet I have often noticed that all the short check reins don't belong to the ungodly. Kind reader, did you ever think that when man was given dominion over the beasts of the field that it was ex pected he would torture the faithful, hard-working animal with the short check-rein? And to see a horse with two bits in his mouth, holding lips apart, the saliva drooling out, the tongue dry, the lips chafed, gives them a very uninviting appearance. My best plan to make a horse have a graceful carriage to the head is a few more oats, or, if he is getting enough of them, arrange for a little less work and get things in balance again as soon as you can. Tn a natural position is when the horse appears at its best; it is then he is best prepared to travel or pull loads. In fact, I find nothing in particular to recommend the over check above the side-check, not even the'eost of them, for I see by consult ing some lists that the over-check costs twenty per cent, more than the side check.—L.

Bent Method of Caring For Furs, j This is the time when the careful I housekeeper is thinking of relegating | her furs to seclusion, and a symposium j on the best method of caring for them j comes in order. A professional storer j of furs declares the keeping of them i through warm weather easy enough if ! one only knows how—and that if | women would use a few simple pre | veutives they could keep them at home | as well as the furriers iji their store ! rooms. The great secret of keeping | furs is in cleaning them thoroughly j before they are put away. If a moth I or moth egg goes with them in a closet or chest, an elegant garment may be quick ly spoiled. The greatest care should | bo taken, therefore, to beat and comb furs clean before storing them away. For this purpose a slender, strong stick or a regular fur comb may be used. If room is abundant, a special dark closet may be given up to the keeping of furs. In this case, paper it all over, top and bottom, with tar paper, covering this with a second coat of newspaper, to prevent sticking. Here the garments may hang without crushing or wrinkling, and from here they can be readily taken out once a month and examined. Failing a closet, however—and few there are who can attain to that luxury—a clean, tight barrel, or chest, whose interior has been carefully pasted over with tar paper and newspaper, will answer very well. If reduced to the extrem ity of a pasteboard box, any of the numerous moth preventives may be .used, care being taken to sew them in bags or wrap them in tissue paper, to prevent contact with fur, and conse quent discoloration.

The injustice and disadvantages of the present Inter-State commerce laws both to the railroads and to the people were ably set forth in a recent address by Mr. M. E. Ingalls, President of the | Big Four and Chesapeake & Ohio rail- I roads. The occasion was the tenth an | nual convention of Railroad Commis sioners held in Washington, May 10. j Mr. Ingalls said that the railroads had reached a crisis, where something | must be done to avoid disaster not ! only to the railroads but also to the | material interests of the country. Since the enactment of the inter- I state commerce law in ISB7, some pro- I vision of that law has been constantly under consideration either by congress or the courts. Now it is admitted that ! state legislatures have control over the j railroads with regard to local business and congress has power as regards in ter-state business. In reference to the control of States the Supreme court has just decided I that state control must be reasonable, I and that rates cannot be reduced below j a point where railroads can earn their expenses and a fair profit. In 1597 it was decided by the Supreme court that the Sherman anti-trust law, applied to the railroads contrary to the assertions of railroad men. Under the rulings of this law it was practically impossible to make any arrangements for the maintenance of tariffs. The tariffs are now but little respected by the railroads. Private arrangements with large shippers will sooner or later utterly ruin the smaller traders. Many railroad managers are carrying freight far below cost. Away must be found by which rail road tariffs can be maintained and the practico of secret rates and contracts discontinued. The settlement of this question not only concerns the rail roads but also one-fifth of the people of the country, who are directly inter ested in railroads. The chief difficulty with the inter state commerce la v * is that the pun ishments are entirely out of proportion with the offences. The imprisonment clause has not public sentiment in its favor, and it also prevents one railroad from prosecuting another. The public does not believe in the law and what is the result? Honest railroads see their business going to opposing lines; honest merchants are undersold by others who have no scru ples in making private contracts with railroads. Honest railroads and mer chants are thus compelled of necessity to break the law themselves or face certain ruin. Two changes should be made in the present laws to better the condition of affairs. First, the imprisonment clause should be stricken out and a fine of $5,000 imposed instead. The shipper should not be punished at all in his ef forts to secure low rates. Should you punish him you would not be able to 3£-cure his testimony. Second, railroads should be permit ted to contract with each other for the maintenance of rates and the division of business. These would legalize con tracts between railroad corporation. I To-day such a contract would be con- I spiracy. | There should be no friction between I the interstate commerce laws and the j railroads, but the commission should become the aid of the railroads. I Unless some change is made as has I been indicated the small shippers will be extinguished, and a few men of large capital will control the entire I merchandise business. I A resolution of thanks was voted I Mr. Ingalls for his address, and his i suggestions were referred to a special I committee. A School Girl's Battle. From The Mail, Milford, Ind.

ODD DUCKS OF PORT TAMPA. y Of the Wild Variety, They Respond Readily to Man's Coll. The most Interesting thing at Tort Tampa is the duck. Port Tampa Is a collection of piers, but there is a hotel built on piles that are dressed in sewer pipe trousers to keep the teredo away. No shooting is allowed around the grounds or the piers, and, of course, not a little stuff is thrown from the hotel that is good food for ducks, pell i cans and gulls. Accordingly these j birds come about the hotel In flocks, | aud not only are they without fear of the people there, but they have learned ! to come for food when any one whistles for them as If for a dog. | "At first It seems as if the birds corne j as readily to the call of one person a6 j of another, but the fact Is that two or three people about the hotel are on • speaking terms with them. The birds j know their voices, and are plainly very friendly with them. At an old boat landing stage the pelicans gather a doz en at a time, and, sitting there In the j sun, preen their feathers and scratch their ribs with their long? ungainly ! looking bills. The fact that a lot of j people are standing six feet away is in , no way disturbing to them unless some unmannerly fellow pokes them with n | cane. In that event tlie bird gives the ; Intruder a white-eyed look of astonish- I ment and utters a protest In a voice ! that is so gentle and delicate as to I make one wonder where in the world I such an ungainly bird got It. Then it | flops its way to safety beyond the piers. : If undisturbed the pelicans often pil low their heads on their backs azd take i a nap, but In that position they are ; quickly observed by the tourist who thinks it is fun to make trouble for I quiet folks, and they are quickly snared by a cane-crook and sent flapping to the water. "Only the smaller ducks come about i the hotel, but they are excedlngly beau j tiful and graceful In their movements, j while the gulls in their dancing flight are of endless Interest. No one has tried to teach the birds to come to hand foi food, it Is said, but it is plain that any one with knowledge and tact and love might establish an acquaintance there that would enable him to write a most Interesting story about our feathered brothers afloat."
