A table, with an inch strip on the sides, ie placed at n, on which can be ar- ranged the clamed fruit. 1 It will be observed -that the milk table is convenient to both stairs, also to the churn. I thought best, a light partition oan be niado to separate the churn power from the rest of the cellar, but if a dog is used for the motor, and he is brushed before entering the cellar, no trouble will ensue. No breeze should be allowed to enter the cellar, and to guard against this, heavy curtains should be hung at the windows, and tightly closed during the prevalence ot heavy winds, and to shut out the direct rays of the sun. In the spring, remove all vegetables as soon ea possible, clean the cellar bottom thoroughly, whitewash the walls, and keep the au sweet and pure. If milk is spilled on the earth or woodwork, remove at once, and do not allow it to contaminate the atmosphere. Ventilate well.—Arnerican Agriculturist. Why Lost People Walk In Circles. It is matter of common knowledge that when a man is walking blindfold or is los& in a fog or in some unknown forest or desert instead of walking straight he has always a tendency to work round in a °kale. The moot commonly accepted explanation of this curious fact is the slight inequality in the length ot a man's legs. The result of one limb being longer than the other will naturally be that a person will unconscious- ly take a longer step with the longer limb, and consequently will trend to the right or to the lett, according as the left or right is the longer, unless the tendency to deviation is corrected by the eye. This explanation is supported by the fast that in the enor- mous majority of cases the human lege are proved to be of unequal length. The care- ful measurements of a series of skeletons showed that no lase than 90 per cent. had the lower limbs unequal in length; 35 per cent. had thei right limb longer than the left, while in 35 per cent. the left leg was the longer. The left leg being, therefore, more often the longest, it is to be expected that the inclination should take place more frequently to the right than to the left, and this conclusion is quite borne out by obser- vations made on a number of persons when walking bliodfolded.—Science Siftings. Growlag Tomatoes. _ From an old gardner who ie very success- ful in raising tomatoes, I obtained some rules for tomato culture, and have had such excellent results from following them that I give them for the benefit of amateura. Set in a warm sunny place with soil light and deep, but not too rich. Plant, about three feet apart each way, and as they grow, watch carefully and pinch off nearly all side shoots, allowing only a few strong ones to remain. As the plants grow, tie securely to stout stakes, about three feet high. When they reach that height pinch out the top to prevent further growth and watch side shoots more closely than ever. In this way the remain- der of the plant grows strong and vigorous, and bears its fruit in large clusters. One thus pruned, standing beside oee unpruned with other conditions the same, will Bear half as much more fruit, of larger size and finer flavor, and will ripen more evenly and a week or ten days earlier than the other, We have a large stock of Tweeds and Fine Worsted Suitings, and a big selection of Fine Pantings, and as we have secured the services of Mr. W.

A gentleman in Ohio is an enthusiast ou this plant and raises it by the acre every year; he gets honey from it for the bead and food for his horse and Jersey - cow. His ground is seeded permanently,to sweet clover, by letting it seed itse f. It is difficult ts get a good stand by sowing. It grows better on hard roads and hill sides than on fertilized ground. My own ex- perience and bservation of this plant corresponde ,with the above. -bow it on welt plowed land with every care,and it may not grow ; but let it be ground down into poor gravelly soil by wagon wheels, and it, will flourish and can scarcely be eradicated. In lanes and country roads I have seen it so thick that, a team could with difficulty be driven through it, yet there was not a single speci- men growing in the fields on either side of the road. The seed is carried long di. - tepees in the mud on wagon wheels. It is a valuable plant for railroads, as it grows luxuriously on the sides of deep cuts, there. by keeping them froin. washing. It is a good fertilizer, as the roots run down deep into the' ground. Notwithstanding the good qualit es that bee -keepers find to ad- mire, it has fallen into disrepute in Illinois and is classed as a noxious weed. "Bees are not, neceeeary for fruit." I would like to see that, printed in illuminat- ed letters, upon every farmer's fence in the land. Perhaps then they would compre- hend the necessity of it. I find the follow- ing in a late number of a bee journal which will illustrate this point : "Before my brother and myself engaged in bee -keeping, no bees were kept in this vicinity. One of our near neighbors has a barge orchard, and in it, are several large trees which, however, never bore fruit. In the spring of 1885 we commenced bee- keeping, and from that time those heretofore barren trees yielded boun- tifully. The owner himself gave our bees the credit for their fruitfulness." In the Northam and Western States during the blooming time- of fruit trees, insects are scarce, and cotnparatilvely few beim will be found working upon the flowers. Since there are no insects which survive the win- ter's cold, and live, in communities. like bees, their =portend° to fruit growers is apparent. Fruit trees are not a necessity for bees in - the same degree as fruitis dependent upon them; yet if therel was no fruit blooms, bees would not be strong and thrifty, capa- ble of taking care of the coming clover har- vest. If there are no cool rains during the fruit blooming periOd, bees multiply very rapidly, and at its doge oolonies are at the swarming point. 'There is harmony in Nature, and insect and vegetable life are dependent one uponthe other. Raspberries continue blooming for about three weeks and are an excellent source for honey. The nectar they yield ie unsurpassed. Owing to the dependent nature of the bloom'rains do not wash out the honey as they do from some other flowere. A farm without bees, fruits and flowers is no home at all. Get some raspberry plants, enrich, stake and mulch them well and you will never regret it. Then do not tarn in a horse or calf to eat them up and say they do not pay. While you are about it, set out a plot of strawberries. Remember the bees and the birds, and plant some mulberries and chile- ries.—Orange Judd Farmer. The Best Peed for Horses. • Oats is the best grain to feed horses in good health. Barley is next best. For a steady diet, corn is not wholesome and, if fed alone for anv length of time, is certain to produce ill effects from indigestion. Oats have about the right proportions of nutri- tions and coarse matter to be healthful, while cora hie a very large per cent. of 1 strong food. Old er enfeebled horses, should be ted ground food, a good. mixture being four bushels of oats to one of corn. Twelve quarts per day of this ground mixture will prove a good 'feed for any horse while pdhool ing or doing other heavy farm work. W oorn should bo soaked in warm water for six hours before feeding. Once a week give horses a feed of wheat bran. An occasional feed of potatoes, apples or roots will prove beneficial, and the animals will relish the change of diet. Houses for Inseet-litllera. Birds can help in the war against bugs and worms. Each blue bird and robin is a guarantee of thousands less of insect pests. A dozen or more bird houses can be made, as shown, any wet day, and easily nailed fast to orchard trees. Build with a door at each end and partitions in the middle 80 that two families can be reared annually in *soh. EGG -EATING HENS. A Plan to Break Hens of Eating Eggs -- Very Successful and Easily Done, . 1 send you an illustration of a wire rat trap which we have been using to break hens of eating eggs. I have tried several plans but have failed in all but this. In the first place we tried to pick out the hens which ate eggs and dispose of them, but found it would take a. good portion of our beet ones. I set this trap with an egg A Neglected Fodder Crop. Peas are an excellent food for mileh cows, er for hogs. Take a piece of fall plowing and harrow it well to make a good seed bed. Sow broadcast two and one-half bushels of the small Canada peas, or three bushels of marrowfats, and plow under four or five inches. The pea is a. deep- rooted plant and should be put well down. Sow on top of the ground one bushel of oats to hold the peas up. For hogs they some in as a green forage after clover, and may be cut with a scythe, and thrown in to them, or a movable fence may be put around a small portion of the field. Good success has been obtained by putting the peas and oats in the silo. Or it may be ant and cured, threshed and ground into meal. Try two or three sores as an ex. pertinent the coining season. =7' TRAP OR EGG -EATING HENS. shell filled with plaster of paris, then plac- ed some hay around the back ot it so as to conceal the wires, then stood back to watch the deTelopment, expecting I would have to help mit those which were caught ; but they did hot need any assistance and there have been none of them injured by it as yet. About ten hens started for the first egg, the trap shut down on two of them and by the time they got out of it there was not a hen in sig t. I set it again and called them back ith corn. In this way I caught ten or fifteetl of them in a few hours. I next set the trap in the nests removing all eggs after the hens had laid • for the day, and canght a great many. I then left the trap set during the day until they gave it a wide berth. Within a week's time I could put an egg any- where in the yard and not a chicken would come within ten feet of it. I paid fifteen eents for our trap, aud don't consider it a success as a rat oatoher, but for egg -eating ishiekens it/is certainly a very fine thing.— Osborne Palette. The only notable statuary in the grounds at Osborne are two immense antlered stags, which are on the southwestern side of the Palace, being placed facing each other on either side of the drive. Some time ago the Duchess of Edinburgh was driving along the road, and the marble stags ao terrified kir ponies) that they bolted, and a very serious accident was narrowly avoided. These stags which were originally in the grounds at liblinoral, were modelled in imitation of the tamous pair by Rauch which are on the terrace at the Platte, the Duke of Nassau's picturesque shooting lodge near Wiesbaden. of presenting it.

The Isabella quarter dollars, for whose issue Mrs. Potter Palmer ie largely re- sponsible, bid fair to be a greater financial success comparatively than have been the Columbian coins. Fifty thousanddollars have already been refused for the entire lot ot 40,000, and every mail brings Mrs. Palmer sums of money, asking her to re- serve as many coins as the enclosure in each ease will buy. Herein may be discerned a delicate compliment to woman ancient and modern ; to the bright and popular ladies of the fair on the one hand, and to the memory of the great Spanish queen on the other.

W. Foss in Yankee Blade. Too Literary. It is amusing and sometimes disgusting to hear some women talk of relatives or friend. as not being "congenial." A wife who makes such a declaration about her hus- band shows not only poor taste, but a lack of discretion and good sense, that is omi- nous for tbe future. The degree of con- geniality is never increased by such unwifely indiscretions. " My husband's a real good man, a good provider, etiddy as a clock, and all tIsat,but in some things we ain't a bit congenial," said a garrulous woman to a friend. " Upon what do you disagree ?" " Well, mostly about our reading." " Why, how so ?" " Well; the fact is I'm toiterary for John." " Indeed 1" "Yes, John ain't a bit literary. Now, I always did run to literaryness. I just bee, lieve could write," " Did you ever try ?" " Yes ; I've wrote two or three poems. They rhyme right straigt.t through. But John he just laughs at me. He says a wo- man with four children and only a poor car- penter for a husband ain't got time to write poetry or be literary. There isn't the first literary streak in that man. Now, I'm the greatest reader." " Does your husband dislike books ?" " Oh 1 be likes to read the papers, and says he thinks it's his duty as a voter to keep informed in politics; and he reads about the labor question, and he's got some old histories and a book called Macaulay's Essay.' that he's forever reading. But when it comes to being literary, John ain't there." "What do you read ?" " Oh 1 I read every scrap of poetry in the newspapers I osn pick up and I often have four novel. on hand at a time. I'm reading one now called 'Millicent the Mad, Mad Maid of the Mist,' and I take four splendid story papers, and borrow two more. I e'pose mebbe I'd be happier if I wasn't so literary, but I can't help it. " And of,course John can't appreciate my tastes and my kind of reading. He ain't literary enough for it. And so we ain't a bit congenial. And 1 sometimes think it would have been better for John if he'd married a woman less literary than me. It's dreadful to be no literary when your 'hue - band ain't a bit that way. Yes ; dreadful for the husband. Sows ami Sucklings.
