BURNING STUMPS.
The months of August and Septem-
ber are tbe best for the eradication oi
old stumps. Nothing conneetea with
farming is more aggravating than
those "thorns of the ground." How
often do my thoughts wander back to
the, time when I had to plow and har-
row and cradle and harvest in these
stumpy fields. But my father was a
fighter ageinst sturaps, and year in and
year out scores ‚and scores of stumps
were cut and dug and grubbed out. Of
course it is tedious and. laborious work
to dig and ch.op these stumps of trees
and it is too costly to blast them.
There is no better way than to burn
them out, and tbls may be done by a,
simple and cheap method,. .A sheet iron
cyliader large enough to slip down over
the large stumps is treed. This cylinder
tapers into a cone-shaped. figure the size
ore a stovepipe. Several joints of stove-
pipe are then added to this and the
whole apparatus is placed over • the
stump. Previous to this the soil is ring
away from around the stump and a
fire is kindled; then the cylinder is
added, the smoke evolves from the pipe
and you have a good working stove,
principle complete. The stump will be
burned up as completely as if it were
put in a stove manufactured for the
purpose. At this season of the year
the dryness of the stumps will render
them in good condition to Luna There
is more profit derived from the de-
struction than many suppose. More
work can be done in a day in a field
free from stumps, and a larger yield
will also be the result. Spare nothing
to rid yourself of every stump on your
Lan.
FACTORY TESTS FOR CHEESE.
In order to protect himself as evell
as his conscientious patrons, the mod-
ern clues -a -maker must be able to judge
witb accuracy the quality of milk
brought to his factory. Smelling and
tasting are the most common methods
but it is readily seen that neither one
nor both of (hese metbods can be used
satisfactorily. For the purpose of esti-
mating rapidily the acidity of milk,
the 'Wisconsin station has devised a
methoi called the alkaline tablet test
which may be readily used. as the milk
is delivered at the factory,
The apparatus consists of a wbite tea
cep, a four, six or eight ounce bottle
and a, small measure with a capacity of
about one-half ounce. A solution of
the tablets es made by placing as many
in the bottle as is indicated by its cap-
acity ia aunties. As the rank is deliv-
ered at the factory the measure is fill-
ed from tbe weigh can, and poured in-
to the white cup. The same or anoth-
er measure is filled twice with the tab-
let solution and emptied let° the cup
of milk. The liquids are mixeri by giv-
ing the cup a quick rotary motion. It
the milk remains white, it contairts
more than two-tenths of one per cent
of acid. If it is colored, even a feint
shade of pink, after being thoroughly
muted, it contaeas a less amount of add
and is therefore so far as Acidity goes
suitable for the menufacture of cheese.
CARE 013' THE HORSE.
Here is the Mark Lane Express' idea
of how horses should be aired for:
The animals should be first Watered,
• then esd, and while they are eating
their corn the hod is tarried up, the
stens mucked out, the feet picked out
wite the picker, and the soles, frogs
and walls well brushed with the water
brush, the ehoes being examined to site
.that they are firm and serviceable.
Thorough grooming with brush, curry
-
regale sponge and linen rubber.
Sick and idle horses require groom-
ing as ninth as working aeirrials do to
keep them in heenb. If lioness gob

HAVE NO FEAR.
There es Very Little Danger of Death by
aleisersine.
The death rate during the average
thunder -storm is less than ono to ev-
ery million hump beings in the af-
fected area.
In large cities the mortality is gen-
erally less, while in the country it is
frequently greeter. The danger of be-
ing struck by lightning, it will be seen,
is out of all proportion to the fears
which many people bave of thunder
bolts. A great deal more caxe is taken
to guard against this danger, than is
exercised to prevent people from fall-
ing out of windows or being run over
in the streets, and. yet these causes
give rise to many more deaths than
thunder -storms.
A large city is a safer peace during
thunder-storra than a village or sub-
urban districts. Modern buildings
with their tall steel frames act like so
many lightning rods to connect the
charged atmosphere with the ground
and thereby prevent violent discharges.
The water, gas and steam pipes which
pass continuously from the top to the
bottom of most buildings also serve to
conduct electricity to earth. When a
flash of lightning strikes such a build-
ing it is usually conducted to the
ground without inflicting personal
injury.
The most dangerous position in a
modern building is near the base of a
system of pipes that are not well
grounded. The chances are that the
lightning will'jump from them to tbe
ground. and a person standing near
might be
• INSTANTLY ANNIHILATED. '
With the exception of this position, one
pert of a modern building is quite as
safe as another. The precautions tak.
en ley people to hide from lightning are
almost always eenecessory. It reminds
one of the ostrich .,.hich, when pursued,
fancies that by hiding its head in the
sand ILO oue sees it.
Many people will not sit near an
open wineow during a thunder -storm,
or even in a, room In which a svindow
has been ief1 open. Their idea is that
lightning will follow the current of air
I entering the room. Again, they will
retreat as carefully as possible to the
centre of the building, taking refuge
undecr a staircraie or in a closet. As a
, matter of fact the lightning is not like-
ly to pass through the walls whether
the windows are Left open or not, and a
current of air is not a non-conductor
of electricity, unless it is saturated
with moisture, and even than the
chances of lightning following it are
very slim, Lightning seldom enters
the side of a house.
It follows thee the danger one is sup-
posed to incur by sleeping on steel
springs or beds with iron frames is
slight. It is commonly supposed that
any mass of metal tends to attract the
lightning, and people therefore consid-
er raachine ehops or hardware stores
dangerous places. The truth of the
matter is that thy are perfectly safe,
for a man runs more risk of detail

ORANGE SYRUP AND GLACE
• ORANG.ES,
Orange Flower syrup should be made
wberx the pure white leaves are falling
frora the orange trees. It is slow
work to pick them from the ground,
but large blankets or sheets can be
spread under the trees through the
day when the leaves are falling, and a
great many gathered in this way. If
plotted from the ground; they require
to be washed and drained carefully so
as not to bruise the leaves. To make
the syrup, allow one pint of water to
each pound of granulated sugar, boil
*tether, have ready the white of one
egg beaten to a froth, put in two tea-
spoonfuls for each pou.nd of sugar, boil
ten minutes, and skim. Add one pint
of orange petals to one quart of syrup,
simmer slo.vly five minutes, set off and
strain, and put into bottles while hot,
and seal. Add one spoonful of this to
one glass of water ; this makes a pleas-
ant drink; and the syrup is excellent
to flavor custards and creams.
• Syrup from Orange Peel. -Peel four
sweet oranges, Laing eareful not to
get any of the white in. Put the yel-
low peel in three pints of cold water.
Add half a pound of loaf sugar, and
eook together into a syrup. This
syrup is nice for flavoring. I
To Glace' Oranges -Take fresh, solid '
fruit -the navels are very nice for this;
peel carefully, and separate the parts ,
sO as not to break the skin. Set them
on a dish near a, fire to dry; add half
• capful of water to one pound of I
granulated sugar, mix well together, I
and set over the fire in a porcelain-.
lined kettle. Let it come to a boil
slowly ; never stir it alter it has clis-
srolved. Whezt it has boiled about
twelve rainutes, dip up a little on a
teaspoon, and put in very cold water.
Take it out, and break it quickly. If it
is sticky, it must be boiled longer. If
it breaks off brittle, it i$ cooked,
enough. Remove from the fire, and
add one spool -Jill of strained lemon
juice, set the kettle in a pan of cold
water. Take the pieces of orange on
a hat pin and dip into the syrup and
out again. Lay on e, piece of greased
paper ort a tin and set them, in a warm
oven or in the sun to dry.
To prepare grape fruit for the table,
after peeling off the outer rind, take
off the thialc white skin, then with
sharp knife Slice the pulp in a dish,
and add plenty of fine sugar. Let it
stand over night in a eoel place, and
serve for breakfast.

SUGGESTIONS TO HOUSEREEPERS.
If you spill oil on the carpet, ;cover
the spot with cornmeal as quiokly as
you can. The meal will take up the
grease.
The season of green corn is with us.
And there is corn -and corn. Some
justifies all we expect of it, andesome
is not fit to eat. -Coen that has passed
out of the milk should go to the pigs.
That whieh has not may be served at
table. Don't boil green corn an hour,
or even forty-five, minutes. Don't let
it stand and soak in the water after
it is done. Son the corn till the, rank
does not escape when a kernel is pen-
etrated by the nail. Twenty minutes
is usually sufficient. Then drain off
the water and leave the corn covered
if it must etand. Mut it should be
served as soon as done. Lay a napkin
on a platter, pile the corn on itelemalne
kle with salt and fold the corners of
the napkin over it.
Thomas Murray, the noted chef, says
rapia.07ericyoo. rix,
cooks do not kuow 'how to
do so simple & thing as to bona eice
Bach grain of rice, he says,
should be distinct, whole, but at the
eame time tender. To accomplish this,
a small kuantity of rice should be
boiled in a large pot nearly filled with
water. Put it into cold water, and a
little salt, and boil rapidly for twenty
or thirty minutes. Test the grains oc-
casionally, and when a slight pressure
between the thumb and forefinger will
crush them they are (lone. 11 allow-
ed to boil till the grains burst, or
boiled in a email quantity of water,
the grains will stick together. When
done, drain off the water and eeb the
rice on the range, where it well keep
warm.
Dr. Jonathan Hutchinson, a very
noted surgeon, prescribes coffee as a
medicine in many cases of great debil-
ity. Tea ansi coffee are alike hi many
respects, but the latter is greatly to
be preferred as regards its sustaining
power. Tea., he says, if strong or used
in any quantity, and especially if the
individnal is not in robust health, in-
nimes a nervousness prejudicial to
health. Coffee"steaclies and quiets the
nerves. It would be a, great advant-
age to our working clams and a great
help to the development of social sob-
riety if coffee were to come into great-
ly increased use and if the ability to

HOW IT FEELS TO PERFORM BE-

It is Regarded As a Great Honor To Be
"Commanded" to Entertain the Queen
In Waterloo Chamber—Experiences of
A.1c. Actor at Balmoral.
When Her Majesty Queen Victoria,
wishes to see the performance of any
play, or scene from one, by some
special company, a note or verbal
message is sent to the manager of the
company a day or two previous to the
appointed time by the Lord Chamber-.

ery and cheeses required are sent to
Windsor, and all is got ready. Natur-
ally, owing to the inom being designed
for quite another, purpose, it is not
so "handy" as the ordinary theatre for
the artists' requirements, but they
make the best of it.
Afterdinner, which Her 3/la3e,sty al-
ways takes at eine o'clock, she is, as
anal% ready for hearing the perform-
ance. This, therefore, nener begins
before ten, and often it is half -past.
Generally speaking, it lasts from one
hour to two hours, the Queen practi-
cally never goes beyond that now.
The play does not begin until she
gives the signal, through the official
attendant, that she is ready. There
is, as a rule, no applause, as everybody
takes their cue from the Queen, and
it would be contrary to etiquette for
Her Maesty to pp1aud But 'if she
has particularly enjoyed the perforce-
,

'manager at the close of it and person-
ally compliments them,
A flay or two later the manager re-
ceives from the Chambeelain a letter,
saying how much the Queen
EN.TOYED Teen PLAY,
and this note is often accompanied by
personal presents in jewelry, etc., to
the principal actors and actresses.
"We are, of course, glad," said one
who had been thus horiorecl, "to be
called of 'commanded' to 0,ppea,r, but
it is often an awkward business, For
it is no joke to get e lot of ecenery

tions of being half frozen in the pro-
cess before to -day. But there is one
thing you can ever reckon on, ana that
is the appreciation of the Queen for
all really good work of any Weld, whe-
ther it, be singing or acting. And no
women I ever knew puts you 14 your
ease sooner."
"Nobody eould possibly be kireler or

her sons and daughters whet yeti sing

private individual who has move then

Queen and the Princes end Prineess of

was waiting on the Queen. • He told
me that Her Majesty was at dinner,
end would be ready for me in fif-
teen minutes or so. In the ine,a.ntirne
he showed me into the thawing rotaa,
to see that the piano was all right and
to arrange the musics. I had a pro-
gramme, so hastily made out as I came
along hi the train that it was written

ready when the door opened and in
