AGRICULTURAL
In aux experience we have found tbat
we can Make one hogs thrive much bet-
ter and lay on flesh more rapidly by
feeding a continuous combination of
foods that they relish, than by feed -
corn one week and grass the next.,
followed by mill feed for a period of
another week, writes John AL Jaen/i-
on. ' The farmer never begrudges his
begs the grass and cern they eat but
when it comes to the by-proaucts that
he must buy, than there is a holding
back and a claim that they cost too
much, yet all are willing to admit that
a "little slop goes a long ways withl a
hog." 'We have not weighed the food
and the animals to know just bow rauc.h
we get out or bought food, but have
accepted results obtained at many ex-
eerixaent stations, as a safe guide to go
by. If they can get a profit by feed-
ing in close peaas on stated rations, we
argae that the farmer, with his oppor-
tunities, should do much better. If all
the, facts that they have produced show
that a variety ration gives better re-
turns than a single one, and that there
is moue/ in the mixing, why should, we
ignore the opportunity to turn an bon -
est penny? The mill feed purchased us-
ually goes to the pigs in the shape of
slop. Sometimes when the pigs are not
thriving a smell quantity of bran or
middlings are bought and slop fed for a
time and the pip at once stew added
thrift. Shortly, the rood supply for slop
fails; the farmer argues that the pigs
do not longer need slop, and that he has
not time to boiler with it, anyway. So
back he goes to his single ration of
cern. He finds the pigs thrive for a
time, and then be begins to notice that
in some way they do not. Be has fool-
ed, himself, but faile dto fool the pigs.
Some time ago we had a conversation
with a pig grower as to how we: stee-
ped our sows, and the amount of ,mel
feed used where we gave them their
regular feed. Our plan, recently, has
been to mix the feed as stiff as possible,
using only sufficient milk slop, or water
to dampen it. Instead of makim.r it a
morsel to drink, eve make it ration to
be eaten and give the pigs their drink
"straight."
!When we do this we know just how
much solid food we give each time, and
how much each sow gets at a feed. If
we feed them slop as a drink, the pro-
portions of water and solids would be:
variable. We might easily fool our-
selves, but not so easily the demands of
the sows' systems. Now we have four
SOWS that have thirty-one pigs five and
six weeks old; the other three litters
of eight each, are six weeks old. (We
are feeding them and have been for
some time, one-half bushel of bran and
middlings twice each day. Each sow
gets from seven to eight pounds of this
per dee. The pig feeder said car plan
of mixing the food took too much of it;
that he preferred to give a thin slop
and not use so much ground food. We
thought this was the keynote to the
greater part of the slopping done.
Farmers deceive themselves when they
undertake to make water take the place
of solids. But they do not deceive the
demands of the systems of the sows and
.pigs. Highly diluted slops fed to the
full satisfaction of the pigs, give us a
pot-bellied herd. It is well to distend
a-nd expand the digestive organs as
ranch as possible, but water is not the
best agent to accomplish this. If we
give due attention and thought to the
matter we will know that a certain
amount of solids are required to sustain
the system. 'We cannot sabstitute wat-
er for these, and if we compel the ani-
mal to drink more water than the sys-
tem requires, to obtain these solids, we
work an injury to the animal. If we
feed short of what is required ba the
system as a matter of economy, we de-
ceive ourselves as to the true source of
profit, anti have as a further result, an
unsatisfadary outcome in our pig grow-
ing efforts.
RATIONS FOR SHEEP.
Corn and oats in equal parts make
one of the very best grain rations for
sheep. Corn alone is too beating and
fattening. Moreover, if sheep are fed
exclusively on corn for any consider-
able length of time they lose their wool.
.Tt cats just as much to keep a sheep
of a certain weight right. But, if with
good. care in selecting and breeding, and
with good feeding the- sheep can be
made to give eight or nine pounds of
wool instead of four or five the' extra
weight of wool will be that much ad-
ditional profit. When it barely pays
to keep a sheep that shears only four
or five pounds, one that shears seven
ar eight will give a good per cent. on
the money invested. In addition in
nearly all cases the heavier fleece will
be of a better quality.
'While it is always best to feed with
as little waste as possible, it is rarely
good economy to compel the sheep to
eat up the hay in timer racks as dean
as with, cattle and horses, unless it is
unusually fine. Still, care must be
taken not to feed too :much, as sheep
are inclined to waste their feed if over-
fed. But considetrable waste can be
avoided by baying good racks. The
slats should be wide enough apart to
allow the sheep to put their heads en-
tirely in the racks and eat or they
should be so close as to only allow
them to insert their noses. If made in
this way, however, it is important that
they be made slanting, so that; the hay
will gradually sink down and always
be within reach of the sheep.
Every day that the weather will per-
mit thte sheep should be turned out in
the morning to get fresh air ands wat-
er. At the same time their quarters
can be well aired. Sheep do not bear
dose confinement well. "Whenever it
is possible the doors of their quarters
should be left open during' the day so
that they can sun in and cute as suits
them. With the breeding ewes, especi-
ally, care shoula be taken to have a eee
doors to their quarters wide, so as a
Lessen the risk of injury in their run-
ning in and out. It will still further
lessen the risk of injury if the doors
are hang to elide open rather than to
open and shut with common hinges.
In extremely cold weather more corn
rnay be given than when it is raildea
but do not make it an excetusive ra-
tion at any time. Give oats, barker,
inttl feed and caber materials to mallets
up a, good variety. Sliced turnips with
wheat bran sprinkled over them makes
a good feed for sheep, especially when
grain is given at other etterele. The con-
dition of the sheep is the best criterion
s•
as to what the quality of the ration
should. be. One of the most economic-
al rations is untheesired ate, run
through a dampener suffidentayto
make the bran stick to the straw. Give
them all they will eat up dean,
SPRAYING FOR FRUIT.
At the present tarns a revolution is
going on in regard to fruit growing,
mused by tbe knowledge that spray-
ing with, poisonous washes is equivale
tent to the preservation of the crop of
fruit. It has taken someaattle time for
the public to become recouciled to the
use of poisons, but so =ay persons had
been accustomed to see its use on pota-
toes, that its use on trees was less hard
to briefs about. The French were the
first to use.. poisons to preserve, their
fruit. Fungus and insects had nearly
destroyed their grapes, a fruit of great
interest to them, winemaking being one
of their Lading industries. Experi-
ments led them to the use of copper
sulphate, the chief ingredient in what
is now known as Bordeaux mixture and
the results were eminently satisfactory.
From that time to this the fame of this
raixttna has been steadily growing. In
o ur own country all progressive fruit
growers now use it. Whatever crops
forbaerly suffered from the attacks of
fungi are now assured when the trees
are properly sprayed. The fruit grow-
er who is satisfied to let his trees bike
their chances in the old way will be
badly beaten by the neighbor who
sprays his orchard. Althaugb fruit
trees suffer much from mildews which
this mixture prevents, it is the greet'
will& has been the most benefited. Tons
and tons of fine fruit are now sent to
market an period, condition which, had
not spraying been done, would bare
been destroyed by rot of the fruit or
mildew of the foliage. There are many
ways of making the Bordeaux mixture,
but they differ but little from one 'an-
other, and the following will be found
to answer all purposes. Take four
pounds copper sulphate, commonly call-
ed blue stone; four pounds quicklime,
and, mix with fifty gallons of watee.
Before spraying the trees always stir
it up wee. Some use rather more cop-
per sulphate, but in my experience four
pounds to fifty gallons is ample, and I
incline to think that less instead of more
would be just as effective. The first
spraying should be done just as the buds
are bursting, another when the. leaves
are fully expanded and a third as soon
as the fruit is well set. A fourth way
be given when the fruit is about hell
grown, and this will be sufficient for
the season. Treated as above, the crop
will be pretty safe.
'When crops are in danger from in-
sects, as apple, plum and cherry always
are, Paris green must be used. Ties can
be applied either alone or with the Bor-
deaux mixture, where blights are fear-
ed as well as insects. About a pound
of it to 150 gardens of water is enough.
And it should be used in about the same
way as recommended for Bordeaux mix-
ture. Plum, apple and cherry crops are
safe when this is used. When used
with the Bordeaux mixture, the Paris
green may be added to the mixture
just as though it were pure water, viz:
a pound of it to every 150 gallons of
the mixture. It has developed curious-
ly enough that when trees are sprayed
the foaage is more vigorous and the
trees themselves grow better than
belaetty trees which have not beent
sprayed. Somehow the poisonous spray-
ings stimulate time growth. The spray-
ing of orchards has now became so uni-
versal that all sorts of sprayers are re-
quired from thee common greenhouse
syringe, which the amateur uses for
his few small trees, to the large engines
drawn through the °roller& by horses.
The business is so large that manufao-
tueers end large seed houses now ad-
vertise the, various sprayers, so that it
is not difficult to get just the scat want-
ed—Joseph areeban, Pennsylvania.
THE EARLY RISER.
In every house there is one member
who awakens earlier than the rest, and
whose duty it is to get all the others
out on time. It is usually the mother,
and she has to see that her husband
is up on time for his work, that her sons
anti daughters who work down town
get started in season, and get the lit-
tle ones off for school. If by chance she
lets any one oversleep, she is asked
in a whining tone, why she didn't call
him earlier. She probably called a ball
dozen times and he turned over and
went to sleep nate. Though she of -
she has to rely upon her own efforts
to get up earlier. No one ever has to
call the mother of the house out of bed,
but she has to serve as train dispatcher
for the balance of the family, on scant
pay and no thanks."

He at all events had no doubt that he

flung the door aide and welcomed him.

ther" means however, no one certain-
ly knows. It seems certain that he
was not one of the apostles, and if
not then, he was not, as some have
believed, the son of Alpheus, and our
Lord's cousin, and called his brother
by a common Hebrew idiom. It is pro-
bable that the "Lord's brethren" were
either sons of Joseph and Mary, and
therefore full brothers of our Load, or
else, and this theory seems the more
acceptable,sans of Joseph by an ear-

ABOUT MACARONI.
The chief foods of the Italians are
macaroni, rice, and, Indian meal, so
there are many ways of cooking these
three articles to make variety. As
the good housekeeper is often puzzled
toeknow what to serve with meat a
few recipes may not come amiss.
First about boiling macaroni: have
plenty of water in the pot, as it ab-
sorbs a large quantity. When the wa-
ter boils salt it, and do not put in the
macaroni until it boils violently. The
time needed to cook it well depend on
its freshness. If imported or stale
such as we get in this country three-
quarters of, an hour will be needed.
Keep it belling well, and stir from
time to time. When it seems soft,
pour in a small jugful of cold water,
and let it stand on the stove until
it begins to boil again—this swells and
whitens the macaroni—then drain in
a colander. This is the first step to
all the following recipes.
Bologna Macaroni.—Chop bits of cold
usually cooked with macaroni, but as
some of the family may dislike it, it
is just as well to have the cheese grat-
ed and served in a. separate plate, that
each may help himself according to
taste. Parmesan cheese is the best,
but any p2ard cheese that will grate
well may be used. Around Milan a
kind of cheese called sbrirm is general-
ly used. In regard to the quantity,
it depends on whether macaroni is a
favorite dish, in the family. For four
persons a pound is enough.
Bologna Macitrovi.Chop bits of cold
meat small, and have ready one onion
and a thick slice of fat pork or bacon
(about one quarter as much as the
quantity of meat) also chopped small.
Spread out the bacon in' a frying pan,
and put in the onion. When it is al
rich yellow strain off the onion, put
the chopped meat in the fat, season
with pepper and salt, and add a ladle-
ful of stock or weak gravy. If it cooks
dry add more broth, as it should be
quite liquid. Have the macaroni boil-
ed a above and drained, lay in a deep
dis.h, and pour the meat over it. This
is excellent made from the remains
of braised beef. It may also be made
from raw meat, only in that case, after
browning the meat in the fat, add
cold water instead of broth.. It will
also take longer to prepare, as the
meat must be well cooked.
Macaroni and Sausage With Fried
Apples.—Drain the boiled macaroni
and place in anoartbenware baking -
dish that can be sent to table, pour
over it a cup of boiled milk, and set
it on the back of the stove. nay fresh
sausages and When they are well
browned take them out and arrange
them around the edge of the dish over
the macaroni, and lay some slices of
apple in the fat. 'When they are fried
take them out and cover the macaroni
with them, letting them lapover each
other in the middle of the ring of sau-
sages. Eat boa This makes an ex-
cellent dish for the mid-day meal in
cella weather.
ON HOME DECORATION,
these "good old days," which pes-
simists never tire of recalling, and even
those far less remote, it was impossi-
ble for the home -maker who must econ-
omize closely in money expenditure, to
leave neat and tasteful rooms, no mat-
ter bow refined and cultivated her
tastes, for cheap furniture Was in-
variably bad in design and workman-
ship; and cheap carpets, curtains and
other textile stuffs were ugly in de-
sign and gaudy in coloring,
Artistic results in house furnishing
no longer depend upon expensiveness,
Plenty of furniture is both cheap and
good, and inexpensive wall -paper, car-
pets, draperies and the like, are AS ar-
tietio in design and coloring as the
highest priced goods.
The same general rules that govern
taste in personal dress are applicable
to house -furnishing and decoration.
Not a well-filled purse, but taste,
thought and discrimination; some
knowledge of the laws which produce
harmony, amid an "eye for color," are
essential.
Color harmony is indispensable to any
measure of sucess, but to make a room
that is at once home -like and beautiful,
there exteet also be harmony of forms
anti proportions, and a certain Maas
of things to their purpose and sur-
roundings.
It matter's not Whether one is fur -

old one and adding to a heterogeneous
accumulation of years, net a dime or
an hour's effort should be expended
and general plan. -
without a well-defillea color scheme
The prevailing color of a room should
be suited to its location and uses, and
to the tastes of its occupants.
In refurnishing one should make that
color dominant Which beet accords with
the coloring of the old furnishings that
must remain; and as new materials are
purchased work up to it.
Warm colors, reds, yellows, golden
browns, etc., should simulate sunshine
in rooms with northern exposure; while
southern and eastern rooms should have
ocloolrsh.lues, greens and similar mixed

heavy furniture, light dainty colors

Our houses are to be made into homes
not bazaars, and use the comfort and
convenience of their occupants should
be the main considerations. Every-
thing in them should promote comfort-
able and beautiful living.
SUMMER DRAPERIES.
After cleaning house many house-
wives do not put up their heavy winter
draperies and portieres again, but clean
them carefully and put them away until
the. fall. For summer use there are any
nuanber of light, airy material's which
may be put up in their stead. •The
crinkled Japanese cottons come in beau-
tiful colors, and are very reasonable.
Tbere are any number of denims, can-
vases, cretouines, silkolines and soft
silks white] make lovely draperies. They
are washable and will come back from
the dlolavu addrrayp esrwieesetth earned
cottons with colored dots and figures

scattered over them. For warm wea-
ther nothing is cooler looleingthan blue
and white. If one does not wish to
keep the good lace curtains up to catch
all the summer dust, F,Lich curtains are
inexpensive and very pretty. Coarse
gray, brown and ecru linen's with bor-
ders of drawn -work are very popular
for summer portieres, They win ,vemir
for several seasons and their initial
cost is not much. Covers for furniture
cushions and sofa pillows are also made
of this cool -looking material. During
the beat andd, dust of summer these
light draperies anti covers make the
house look cooler, and are very rest-
ful to time eye. Some people may not
think there is mrueh in this, but those
who have tried it say that dark, rich
colors with much red in, them make a
place appear hot and close, while white
and lighter colors have the opposite 4 -
feet.

ment," said he, "for all through my

tion, "the Great? No, that does not ex--
sat:la fit him. But he was a • true
knight; he was a hero." •
