It will be jest the place in which to

Every coin field &wad at the last

Poutads of rape seed per acre. It will
not injure the corn, and When that is
harvested the rape will come on and
furnish splendid food foe any stock.

large amount of feed which it
gives, rape grows so rapidly and
forms such u dense shade as to smoth-
er out ell tweets, and even where its
feeding value is not desired it will pay
to sow it for the large amount of
humus that it will add to the soil. Rape
may be omen at any time, from very
early to the middle of Angust, and
give paying weturns in food furnish-
ed. But for a main crop the best
way I have ever raised it is to plow
the field early, &boa the time for
corn. Then once in about ten days go
over it with a cultivator or harrow un-
til time te sow rutabagas, which is
about Jame 15th. The rape should then
be sown, two pounds of seed to th,e
stare, ha drills twenty-seven to thirty
inches apart. The object of this course
is to induce all the weed seeds possible
to gerrnitnase so as to !destroy the
weeds. After the rape has come up
give it one thorough cultivating and
it will take care ot. itself. Same advo-

is to turn them in a dry afternoon,
from another pastime on to the rape
for ahout one hour. The next after-
noon it dry they may be turned in for
good, with no danger. Sheep, especially
Iambs, should never be confined to a.
rape field, but should have an old sum-
mer pasture where they oain run at

should also have at supply of salt

the rape field and eat their fill from
One side and go back into the pasture
to lie down or graze, and will not run
all over the rape field. I have seen
them eat the rape gleam as far as
they had gene and never go two rods
beyond. A bunch of lambs may be
turned into a rape field by the first

Any one who has ever hatl any prate-

SUGGESTIONS TO HOUSEKEEPERS,
Hot alum water applied to the shelves
in the pantry with a brush is reported
to be fatal to insects. It is used for
washing floors and bedsteads also.
The vexy best disinfectant and de-
odorizer knovin is hot reveres water.
Two-thixds of a cupful dissolved in a
pail of water and turned down drain
pipes and any °tiler receptacle of waste
matter will sweeten and parity them,
If tae drain pipes get stopped up so
that the water rues off slowly, dissolve
potash in hot water and turn it down
them. It will eat out the grease.
Anybody' who covets the hardwood
floors of the city mansions and thinks
sbe'd have "a snap" in avoiding use of
Mae broom and duster is hereby inform-
ed to the contrary. Uatess it is kept
in good order a hardwood floor shows
dirt and dust even more then a carpet
and Pt. la no joke to keep it in order.
Once a month it must be polished with
beeswax and turpentine applied with
liberal use of elbow grease. It must be
dusted with a. (sloth every day and
washed once a week with hot suds made
from castite soap into which linseed oil
has been added in the proportion of a
tablespoonful of oil to a quart of suds,
and rubbed dry with a soft cloth. When
the mistress is her own maid she
needn't be sorry if sbe has no hard-
wood floors to look after.
ABOUT SUMMER DRESSES.
Ribbons in plain colors, eitlier satin
or taffeta, are a good investment if they
chance to be among the bargains, for
Were. is every pros ect that they will
be very maul used In trimming our
summer gowns, and two shades of one
color are the special fad just at present.
It is an easy matter to imagine how
effective this harmony of color will be
on dainty tain dresses, especially white;
and on colored organdies, white ribbon
combined with a color will make a
pretty variety. Among other sugges-
tions for summer gowns is the fancy
for tiny tucks and those who desire to
make up their thin gowns now can
• safely Make use of this fashion without
any fear of getting in too many, espe-
e, cially on the bodice and sleeves, which
a are both tucked round or up and down in
me; wring out; put carefully into
shape;, hang lengthwise on the line
and in the shade.
SOME GOOD RECIPES.
Waffles—Quickly Made.—For quick
waff:es place in a medium-sized bowl
one cup of bolted rice, mix with it the
beaten yolks of three eggs, one pint of
milk, one scant tablespoonful of lard
and one of butter, melted together. Two
tempoonfulo of baking powder in en -
flour to make a tbin batter, one tea-
spoonful of salt. ,Bake in a waffle iron
and serve at once.
Honey Biscults.—These are very
tasty and are not at all difficult to
make. Take three-quarters of a pound
of dried and sifted flour, six ounces of
honey, quarter of a pound of castem
sugar, two ounces of citron, and ha -if
an ounce of orange peel cut small. Melt
the sugar and, honey and mix in gradu-
ally the other ingredients. Roll out
the paste, and cat into small cakes of a
leng shape.
groups or otherwise. Groups of three
or five Woks across with a frill of
narrow Valenciennes on the edge of one
is not a new method of making thin
waists, but it is very pretty, and wiil
be good style in the coming season. The
tucks must be very fine in the widths
used in underwear,
BUTTON -HOLES AND LOOPS.
Button -holes in fraying goods should
be bound with narrow braid, to match,
the garment, or a small cord basted
around the hole and the silk worked
over this. An undeefaeng of coarse
canvas will also be found. a great help.
Hooks and loops are more often used
nowadays than hooks and eyes. When
using the former the hooks are sewed
in place first, a email size being used,
, and then the ,00ps are made afterward,
by taking a double stitch where the
hook would fasten, and then working
it with a buttoreba:e stitch, making
one or two tiny cross stitches at the
end to give it strength. ;When hooks
and eyes are used, they should be sewed
on etternately, down both sides of the
front, first a hook and then an eye.
When the hooks are all put on one side
and tal the eyes on the other they tare
forever coming unfastened. The hooks
could be sewed on e quarter of an bleb
in from the edge, and, the eyes so that
they are just even with the edge. Both
becks and, eyes should have their eyelets
inserted between the material and the
facing, and the rough edges of both fab-
rics turned in and blind -stitched to.

BE WISELY ECONOMICAL AND
Don't leave the tea canister open.
Don't throw away scraps of meat.
Don't leave soap to dissolve and waste
in, the water.
Don't allow apples to decay for want
of sorting over. •
Don't spill tea, coffee, sugar and rice
by careless handling.
Don't leave vinegar and settee stand-
ing in tin or iron,
Don't forget to bang up brooms and
mops after each tieing.
CURING MEATS.
For pork make a sweet pickle with
about 9 pounds rock salt, 2 pounds
brown sugar, and 1-2 ounce of saultpet-
re to each 100 pounds. For sausage to
each 10 pounds of the meat cut fine,
use 1 pound of salt, 4 ounces of pepper,
1-2 ounce each of sage and of anise.
Then keep in a cool place or cook, not
too hard, pack in crocks and cover with
melted lard and aue it out as required
for use.
Mock Duck—This proves a very ac-
ceptable dish, now that game and poul-
try are becoming scarce. Take the re-
mains of a cold shoulder of mutton, cut
it into pieces of a convenient size, tak-
ing away all the fat. Stew the bones
for gravy with two or three onions and
a teaspoonful of powdered sage for two
hours. Then strain the gravy, thicken
it with browned flour, and season to
te Add a little orcester sauce
and a teaspoonful of vinegar, place the
meat in this, and simmer very slowly
for an hour. Serve with boiled dried
green peas and potatoes.
Browned Turnips.—Pere turnips, cut
in slices, put into a sauce pan, cover
with boiling water and pet over the fire
to boil till tender. Take up, drain, put
some butter into a frying -pan and let
it get hot, lay the slices in carefully,
turn them over when brown, sprinkle
a. little sugar on each slice before turn-
ing, and when done dust' with salt and
pepper and serve on a bot dish. Try
this some day when you are tired of
mashed, turnips.
Stewed Carrots.—Wash and scrape the
carrots and boll till perfectly tender.
Then cat them into pieces like dice, put
them into a sauce -pan with a little
soap stock season with sett and pepper,
add a teaspoonful of vinegar and half
as much sugar and let them stew slow-
ly for an hour. If you are fond of onion
flavoring, cock an onion with the car-
rots in the first water.
Hume Made Yeast.—A formula for
yeast that has been well tested calls
for six medium-sized potatoes, one cup
of fresth, good hops, a. pint of flour, one
cup of sugar, one tablespoonful of flour,
sifted., one cup of sugar, one tablespoon-
ful of flour and two quarts of boiling
water. Boll the potatoes and, mash
them. Boil the hops for half an hoer
in two quarts of water, tying them in
a muslin bag, of course. Kix the flour,
sugar and salt, and stir it into the

THEY SNEER AT HIS GIFTS,
BRITISH PUBLIC DOES NOT LIKE
HOOLEY'S, CHARITY.
ououy laves Away Thillons--Nialtes
Roney Faster Even Than sarney Barns'
to, and Has Money Mitlfinfloil..
The abuse of Ernest Terali Healey,
London's newest millionaire, continues
taring throughout England. His latest
seneational contribution to chatity is
the peg on which they are just now
hanging all the anpleasant things they
are saying about him'.
The Prince of Wales suggested that
the sixtieth anniversary of Queen Vic-
pria's accession to the throne would
be,St be celebrated by the devotion of
sums of money by the rich towards the
relief of those of the Queen's subjects
whoare in want nad misery- Mr. Boo -
Icy, who makes millions while other
people are making pounds, acted upon
the suggestion. He gave outright the
sum of $2,000,000, the income of which is
to be distributed to the aged poor, the
widows and the infirm of that part of
Derbyshire with which Mr. Hooley is
most identified, The money is distrib-
uted, to towns in proportion to their
DePallation. A t MD, of 10,000 inhabi-
tants will get $5,000 per year, while
a, village of 3,000 populatioa will get
$1,500, and so on. The 'beneficie,rie,s
do not receive the money outright, but
in the form of ordere far supplies up-
on distributing stores, the ceders be-
ing issued by a
COallitaT.EE OF TWELVE,
in each district, tae twelve being made
up of men of ail ehades of creed and
opinion.
Not long ago Mr. Healey gave St.
Paul's Cathedral, Louden, a sacramen-
tal service of pure gold, and at that
there was a great outcry and much
ridicule, just as there is new over
the $2,000,000 charity gift. Mr. Boaley
is amused of "nutting a premium on
idleness," "fiddling for popularity,"
"Fishing for royal recognition." in the
farm of a title, and so through the
whole carping gamut.
Mr. Healers offense seems to be two-
fold. He has made money 60 fast that
he has bewildered even Barney Bar-
nette He buys things that cost a mil-
lion or more as calmly as another man
buys a cigar. Then again, among the
things he has bought are a number
historic estates belonging to money -
Poor aristocracy. Among the estates
he line bought are those of Lord Ash-
burton Lord Churchill, the Countess
of Warwick and Lord Sudleya, great
property at Teditngten, which had
been in the family sincethe .Norma.n
conquest. This prosperity and this
moneybags vandalism are things not
easily forgiven
Mr. Holey has made much of his
money as a promoter of companies, par-
ticularly bicycle and bicycle tire con-
cerns. He says he is malting his land
purchases because he believes five years
will see a great rise in lands wthieh are
now absurdly cheap. 'When in leaflike
he lives at the Midland Grand Hotel,
where he hos the whole first floor for
which he pays a rental of over $50,000
per year.
WANT A ROYAL WIDOW?
It is announced that the harem of
the late of Shah of Persia has been dis-
persed. He tad an extren ly fine col-
lection of wives and lodge them sum-
ptuously. His successor di not care to
support this part of his father's belong-
ings, especially as he had a similar in-
stitution of his own to look after. Only
a few women having strong family in-
fluence, were allowed to retain lodg-
ings in the royal palaces. The others
are free to marry, but they have been
warned that they must not do this with
Persian civil or military officials. If any
one with a passion for curiosities would
like to acquire a royal widow he has
now an excellent opportunity to do so.
SWEEPING WITH WIND.
In some of the Chicago railway yards
ccenpreseed-air brooms are employed for
sweeping and, dusting the carpets and
upholstery of the cars, and the results
ame said to be satisfactory. The com-
pressed air is led from a power house
through an underground pipe, to -which
a hose is attesteil in the ear -yard. Af-
fixed, to the end of the hose is an iron
nozzle as long as an ordinary broom -
handle, and having at its extremity a
fixture of brass about a foot broad,
and furnished with a long slit a thir-
ty-second of an inch in width, through
which issues the compressed air at the
rate a seventy-five cubic feet a min-
ute. The dust does not stay long in
front of that current.
A QUEER DEATH.
John Waltman, nine-year-old son of
John Wahrinan, a farmer living 15
miles south-east of Kansas City, met
death in a pecutiar manner on Saturday
afternoon. The lad was out in the
field with his father and started off
with a dog to heat rabbits. He did
not return. Late ,Saturday night a
party was organized and a search of
the surrounding country instituted.
About 10 o'clock Sunday morning the
boy's body was found tightly wedged in
a groundhog hole. The circumstances
indicated that the joy was in pursuit of
a rabbit, which took refuge in the
groandliogs' burrow, and itn his efforts
to get at the game the boy got hisbody
securely wedged in the hole, shutting
off the air.
A PRIDIETI"i:TE LIGHT.
Recent experiments by the ettrious at
Portland, Ore., have revived recollec-
tions
of a primitive light used in the
early clays of the settlements along the
Columbia River, where the residents
called smelts candlefish. The dried
smelts burn as well as candles and give
off an appetizing odor.
