Visit the best dairy barus and utilize all their good points. A. stable having two thicknesses of boards with tar pa- ter between is dryerand warmer than a stone basement. 'A reetangular barn, with two long rows of cows facing each other, is the most desirable. Hatesuf- ficient room for driving on the feeding floor and also behind eaoh row of ani- mals, for removing the manure, lake the building larger than is needed, or Plan so that additional room can be easily provided,. By all means have a silo conveniently situated. Put in plenty of windows. The south side of our barn is largely glass, The stable must be tightly nude so that when t he temperature is 30 degrees below zero very little freezing ocours on the in- side. Don't, however, keep it so warm that it will fairly steam when the doors are opened. For keeping the air Pure, box ventilators reaching from near the floor to the roof, are excellent. They can be made'by boarding up be- tween the silo studs down to within a foot or two of the floor. Choose some kind of a fastener that will keep the cows clean. The stanchion is most generally used and will answer in most cases, Arrange the floor 4 to 5 feet Iin •length as there will be that much difference in length between the small- est heifer and the aged cow. Let the gutter be 16 in. wide and 6 in. deep. Tf possible have the walk behind the gutter wide enough to allow a wagon or sled. to be drawn over it. Make the manger 24 in. wide and the feeding floor 6 in, above it. The ceiling should. be 61-2 or 7 feet high. Among the necessary implements about a cow stable is the broom. Get two, one for sweeping the feed floor and the other to clean the walk behind the gutter. Keep the floor clean, and. occasionally go over the walls and ceil- ing to remove dust and cobwebs. Use plenty of straw for .bedding. If it is out, so much the better, as it is then superior as an absorbent. Be sure the gutter is water tight, and use road dust, sifted coal ashes, sawdust or land plast- er to abserb the liquid the straw does not take up, Plaster is also first class for keeping down bad odors. Sprinkle a few pounds in the beddinee before each milking and note the effect. It will also enhance the value of the. manure. Have regularhours for feeding and milking and rigidly adhere to. them. Plan your work so the cows can be left to their dreams a part of the time, Be kind to them ; do nothing that will ex- cite xcite them, for it will always result in a loss of milk. Salt every day, or bet- ter still, have salt where they can have constant access to it. Our cattle are out of the barn a short time each day. They go about 60 rods and get water from a spring and I have seen no ill effects from. it. However, they are not out long—not over 30 or 40 minutes on stormy days. Yearlings and dry cows are given more exercise. Of course this takes a little more feed, but it pays. Exercise the bull in a tread. power. Selection of Apples for Planting. In the selection of varieties of apples for planting a commercial orchard, the wants of the market where the fruit is to be sold requires consideration. In localities near to large towns where usually a quick and steady market can be found for summer and autumn ap- ples, early varieties will be found most profitable for the reason that early var- ieties come into bearing young, are more productive, and are handled with less trouble and expense. Early sorts are quickly perishable and cannot be held over for future sales as readily as win- ter varieties, in case of a glut in the market. Few varieties of apples have a wide general adaptation for commercial- planting. The intending planter of an orchard can dono better than consult his neighbors iyho are practical fruit growers and find out what varieties succeed best and pay the most dollars with them. .Sometimes a variety with only a local reputation. known only within a limited range of territory, succeeds far better within its range than any,of the standard sorts. Where such varieties have been well tested and can be obtained, plant a fair pro- portion of them. As a rule, it is bet- ter to purchase nursery stock propo- gated as near as possible (other condi- tions being equal) to the place where it is to be finally planted. It some- times requires a number of years for young trees to recover, if they ever do fully, from abrupt changes in climate and soil. If trees are to be procured from a distance it is better to buy those grow -n farthest to the north .in preference to those grown to the south. Buy nursery stock direct from ' the grower when possible, as there is less likelihood of getting verities not true to name. Varieties sometimes get un- accountably mixed and mistakes often occur with the most careful nursery- men. When stock passes through the hands of one or more dealers who gen- erally know little and care less about names, the danger is still greater. Zn - silt on receiving the varieties ordered and do not let the nurseryman substi- tute some other variety ' equally as good' that you know nothing about, for nine times out of ten it will be a sort that nobody cares to know anything about. Wintering Cabbage Plants. Although the cold frame for winter- ing Babbage andcauliflower plants is still in use by many farmers, and gard- eners, it is by no means the beet and most economical means for the purpose. Some varieties of cabbage—Early Sum- mer particularly—cannot be success- fully wintered in a cold frame. They will rarely make good heads if the plants are wintered in a cold frame, as they very 'commonly run up to seed, having received a cheek which is equi- valent to a season's growth, The hot. bed, started. Mareh 1, is found to be the better place to raise plants for an early prop, But an improvement over this plan even, and partiauiariy for the Wakefield variety, is to raisethe plants in the open field, and about the. Middle' of November take there up and bury therxi in trenches,, the same ae is done with the betide for seed purposes plow out a double furrow six moires deele by running the plow both ways. in this the plantsare set closely together, roots down, then a furrow is turned over them from 'both sides, covering the plants to the depth of a.: foot, so that the frost is almost wholly exoluded. While a few degrees of frost is not in- jurious, extreme freezingwould be, so that the covering woulbe sufficient to prevent it. At the same time, the ground should not be eo warm es to stimulate active growth,. which is in- jurious. To prevent this the trench should be ventilated by putting a small bundle of straw in the center of it before covering, so that the warm moist air from below may escape. In this trench the plants will make' a slow growth the entire winter, and when taken out in spring and transferred to the field will make a rapid growth, perfecting the heads in two weeks less time than those from hotbeds .or, cold frames. HE MISSED THE FIRE. The child Could Not understand Why Ile Ditl, Not awaken. About the coffin in which rested the body of the fireman sat a silent group of mourners. ITO one had spoken, and the widow was resting her head on her father's shoulder, when the door opened, says a New York paper. A little child, the four-year-old daugh- ter of the dead man, ran cheerily in. She had on her flowing white night dress. She climbed a chair and looked at her father lying pallid and still. "What's the matter with papa ?" she cried. "Sh-h-h I" they said, softly. "He is asleep, darling, "Why does he lie in that ugly old boxf" "He can sleep better there, little one. Don't disturb him. Now, go back to bed, like a good little girl." The child moved away slawly. "Good -night, papa," she said, in a low voice, and soon was tucked away again. The silence of the night was suddenly startled by the harsh clangor of the gong in the fire house, just a few doors away, as it sounded the alarm. The thrilling ' call was ringing the second time when the fireman's daugh- tar flew into the room again, Again she climbed upon thechair and shook her father's body by the shoulder. "Wake up, quick, papa 1" she said. "There's a fire." Still he did not move nor open his eyes. The strange look of those about the bier frightened her. "Oh, papa, do wake up. Can't you hear the bell ? You'll miss the fire." The baby looked around in wonder. Then shetried her parting shot, which she was sure would bring her father quickly to his feet. "You'll miss the fire," she exclaimed. "Then you'll be fined." Even then he did not move. Puzzled and worried the child turned around. "Papa will not o to the fire to night, said her mother, in a tear -stain- ed voice. Then the widowed mother burst into tears. Repeating that she couldn't under stand, the child was quietly car- ried back to bed to cry herself asleep again. Shopping Bag. cut two pieces of black satin or heavy black silk, each piece fourteen bathes long. Liae these pieces with black sa- teen. Cut them rounded at each end and shape in narrower at the top. Cut it the shape given in the illustration. Sew the two pieces of satin together, then sew the lining and put it inside of the satin. On. one piece- of the satin work a bunch of flowers with let beads. The I:lemming around the edge of the bag is black lace dotted with jet beads., At the top turn down a hem 1 1-2 inch- es deep and through this run a drawing string, with a bow at the top, to hang on the arm. The ribbon is satin one inch wide. The pattern on the side of the bag ma,y be worked with steel beads, and instead of lace around. the edge you can make a fringe of either jet or steel beads to match the one on side. A black velvet bag with a pattern and fringe of jet is very pretty. How to get a "Sunlight" Picture.

The legacy eomes from the estate of a long dead uncle, Peter Kelly, who, when the Anstralian gold craze broke out, went to that land to make his for- tune.

Zn a family that is unfortunate. enough to have for one :of its reoogniz ed heads an immoral character, the other should, in my opinion, be ever loyal to truth and the young charact- ers put into his hands ,for molding into usefulness or uselessness, says a writer, Here is another question. Which shall it be Z Shall the ehildren be brought up'in the very midst of sin (great or small, the miseouigs certainly are sine). Duties of Gliests. The pleasures of entertaining guests is often materially lessened by their mani- fest indifferences to the trouble they sometimes heedlessly entail upon their hostess. For instance, the guest who visits a friend, by the way of a pleas - and surprise, without having previously apprised her thereof, is seldom. germ- inely welcome, as the consciousness of having things prepared for the com- ing of a stranger in the household. con- stitutes a great deal of joy in receiving a visitor. Again, there is always a visi- tor who neglects to be in time for meals, or thoroughly air her sleeping apart- ment, make her bed and properly empty and refill the weslabowl and basin as - I signed for her use, all of which are un - I mistakable signs of ill -breeding and personal uncleanliness. Another disagreeable type 'of guest is i the one who willfully appropriates all her hostess' writing materiel, postage I stamps and hair and hat pins without the slighteat honorable intention of re- ! turning the same OA soon as possible. I Even if servants are employed in a house, they are not bound. to render any extra service to a guest miremunerated. Besides, it is but a very .sraall-hearted , visitor who fails to pay m some sub- ' stantial way any unusual service ren- t dered. by a servant. Again, it is only a lazy, ill-bred. guest who will disar- range books, bric-a-brac or furniture in a house, and. fail to replace them. pro- perly. The hostess has some rights which should be conscientiously con- sidered by her guests, and which if necessary, she is justified in asserting No person should. assume the unsolicit- ed right of bringing another guest to a strange household. But of all objection - al guests, is the one who wears her wel- come out by remaining too long at any house, and who is apparently insensible or indifferent to hints for her desired departure. Some Good Reeipes. Fruit Salad. --Any left -over fruit, either canned or fresh, may be used. If two or three kinds all the better. Place a layer, say of peaches cut fine, then one of bananas, pears or other fruit, with a sprinkling a sugar for each layer. Sprinkle the top with grat- ed cocoanut ; pour over the juice of the fruit if any. Prepare the night be- fore.

Slice the vegetable across, not too thickly, dip each piece in beaten. egg, then in sea- soned bread or cracker crumbs and fry quickly in boiling fat, which should be at a good. depth in the pan.

LEAPED TO TI{EIR DEA TIL 13UILDING IR CHICAGO, Four Firemen Killed—Went Down When the Floors Gave 'Way—Women crazed Wlth rear—Dry Goods and WOulen fire, disastrous to life and property, swept through the Dry Goeds god Woollen Exchange building on Fricfay Morning. Five firemen in the a,ctive dis' charge of their duty and totally un- mindful of danger were carried through a floor and buried under tons of wreck- age from the five floors above, Four of the men lie dead, but the fifth was I not seriously injured. One girl fell trope. a window, and received injuries from rvhich she died. A dozen other men, women and girls were hurt or overeome by smoke, and manY were rescued frora imminent death. The pro- perty loss to the building which was located at 215-217 Van Buren street and 276-278 Franklin street, and its contents, is estimated at 8400,000. KILLED AND INJURED. The dead are :—Patrick O'Don- nell, Lieutenant of Engine Ca. No. 2 ; Thomas T. Prendergast, pipe man; Martin Sherrick, pipe man.; Sohn 'Downs. pipe man; Kate Lan.dgraffem.- ployed in A. Stern & Co.'s garter fac- A.mong the injured are: Daniel Me - Nally, pipe man, sprained. leg and bruises ; Olga Keller, leg and. arm in- jured; Harry O'Neil, arra broken and back injured; Nellie Turner, -fell from fourth storey and seriously hurt ; John Bruenheirner, -badly injured by falling from fourth storey while assisting the girls to esnaPe. The others 'who were injured were girls andspectators who saved themselves, all being over: come by smoke, but they soon recov- ered, after medical aid at the hospitals or their hornes. All the dead and injured firemen were of Engine Company No. 2, Their Captain, Leryis Fienue, escaped the aw- ful plunge to death only by hanging to the sill of the window an the seoond floor until released from his perilous position by firemen on a ladder. The loss on the building is $100,000, naostly insured. The aggregate loss of the many tenants is placed at .$300,000, the heaviest individual loss being that CRAZED WITH FEAR. The fire started at 9.15 o'clock on the fourth floor of the seven -storey build- ing in the garter factory of Stern & Co., where many girls were at work. They ran screamin.g and fainting from fright to the windows on the Van Buren street side of the building. All was excite- ment and confusion in a moment, and the rapidly -increasing crowd of spec- tators stood gazing upward at what seemed the impending doom of scores of working girls. Engines, hose carts and ladders came, to the m-e-scue with brave firemen, who inek<einkling had scrambled up the fire apes or put the extension ladders in position to bring the panic-stricken people to the ground. The frantic girls were determin.ed their half -crazed mental condition to hurl themselves to the stone flagging but were pertly restrained by the shouts of the citizens on the streets and the quick work of the firemen. One small extension ladder was run up under where the girls were standing hi fear of a double death. A fireman mounted it, but when his feet touched the rungs of the second section either his weight or some defect in the ladder caused It to slip back to its original position, bringing its top four or five feet below the sill of the fourth -storey window. Either crowded from behind or frezied by fear Nellie Turner, Kitty Landgraf and Harry O'Neil made a wild I attempt to lower themselves to touch the top rung of the ladder. In doing this the foolhardy ones slipped and fell headlong to the.pavement. Capt. Henmanson tried to grasp the dress of Kitty Laudgraf as her body flew past him, but he failed, and she struck the sidewalk be sight of thousands. A few seconds elapsed and the same spot upon which Miss Landgraf's body had struck was covered with the uncon- scious form of Nellie Turner, who had. takeri the terrible lunge in the effort to save herself. S e was saved from_ death, however, by being momentarily held by three firemen ill her descent, thus breaking the force of her fall Ernest Stern of Stern & Co., said. there was plenty of time for all his era- ployees to reach the street by the stair - Ways and elevators. The jaoitor of the building spoke to the thirty g.irIS ena- ployed 10 the rooms of Stern & Bieres, telling them to accompany him clown the main stairway, and Many did so.
