FOB THE FARM AND HOME.
Holstein* for Family Fee.
There can be no doubt that Hol
eteins, which combinelarge milk yields
with a good proportion of cream and
butter, are better adapted for family
use than the Jerseys. The latter do
oot give large yields, but what they
do give is extremely rich. With a
family owning only a single cow, quan¬
tity and continuity is quite as import¬
ant as the quality of the milk yield.
With a single cow in most families,
the larger share of the milk never
goes into butter, especially if the yield
is small. For use as milk that from
Jersey cows is too rich when not di¬
luted, and not so good when mixed
with water as the pure milk from
cows giving larger yields.
Green Cropping for Fall Slirep.
Our farmers could very profitably
borrow from their English cousins
some system of green corn cropping
and feeding on the ground of such
fields as are intende.1 for the fallow.
The thick growth of the feeding plant
would smother and prevent all weed
growth, and the eating oil of such a
heavy growth by sheep would, while
fattening the latter, greatly enrich
the ground, and especially so if with
the green crop the sheep were given a
daily feed of grain or oil meal. For
this purpose the fields should be plowed
early, thoroughly cultivated ami sowed
to some such crop as mustard, rape or
spring vetches, or if sown at Intervals,
possibly oats and peas would make a
good crop. When the crop has made
suitable growth, the sheep should he
put on one side of the field, and so
kept as to eat the crop clean as they
advance .—Rural New Yorker.
Judgment on Feedintc Hay.
We remember once weighing some
hay that had been passed through a
cutting machine, and that a great big
pile of it uncut measured only a few
bushel basketfuls after the machine
had done with it, weighing seven
pounds and a half to the basket, or
just half the weight of coarse wheat
bran, weighed at the same time. It is
possible in the practical operations of
the farm to be strictly accurate in
such matters, but whatever departure
there may be should be so far as pos¬
sible controlled by calculation and not
left altogether to accident. The farm¬
er cannot have a chemical analysis
made of his hay to ascertain its exact
nutritive value, and he cannot weigh
out to each bullock so many pounds
and ounces, but he can, considering
the quantity of grain he is feeding and
the average quantity of hay, make up
his mind about how many pounds he
should feed. If he does this aDd finds
a part of it wasted he can decrease the
quantity, auil if the quantity should
be insufficient, his own practical ob¬
servation will soon disclose that fact
to him. Having made up his mind
about how many pounds to feed, he
will have to guess and weigh a few
times until he can approximate the de¬
sired quantity, and will have a basis
for a starting point from which to in¬
crease or decrease his ration.— Cincin¬
nati Inquirer.
Bone Meal.
A correspondent of The Journal
Horticulture gives his experience with
bone mea', having tried it in compari¬
son with two artificial manures on
lawn. All of the manures were
plied at the same tlmi in March, on
separate parts of the ..iwn, and ii ' re¬
marks ; “The two artificial manures
had decidedly the b m of it for the first
season. The bon. meal did nut im¬
prove the appearaun-m the grass in
the least, while tha treated with arti¬
ficial manures displayed a marked im¬
provement The bone meal produced
more effect the second season than the
artificial manures had the first, but
the latter were evidently exhausted
the first season. The third season,
again, told in favor of the bone meal,
a.u& what will be the case this year
remains to be seen. Similar experi¬
ments were tried with peas,
lettuce and cauliflower, and other
etables, which resulted in favor of
two artificial manures, the bones
dently making no difference.
observations and experiments
that bones, however fine they may
ground, do not act in any marked
gree during the first season, but
an invaluable lasting manure.”
conclusion was also reached, very
properly, that for pot-plants, when an
immediate effect is desired, bone meal
is without value, and artificial
manures that will act quickly should
be employed in such cases.
Wheat for Kail Seeding.
Some of the successful wheat
in Pennsylvania and Maryland have
custom of selecting their seed
from fields that have a
vigorous development of straw,
little regard being paid to the
of the berry. The custom
with Mr. D. M. Good, of Washington
county, Md., who, on one occasion,
being short of plump wheat, sowed
part of the field with shrunken seed
procured from a neighbor. Contrary
to expectations, the shrunken seed
produced much the finest crop, and on
investigation Mr. Good found that it
was from a field that had produced a
very heavy growth that lodged and
thus caused the shrivelling of the
berry. The theory is that the strength
OI constitution of wheat can be de
tvnnined more by the growth of the
straw than by the fullness of the
berry on any given lot. Those who
accept this theory procure their seed
from those farmers who have excep¬
tionally heavy fields of wheat, and
would on no account use seed from all
yields, however plump the berry It¬
self might be. The same theory has
been practically accepted by many
New England farmers in the selection
of seed rye, as when a crop on new
land is found exceptionally heavy, as
it sometimes will be from the excess
of plant fertility in the soil, the entire
crop is bought for seed by neighboring
farmers at a slight advance over market
prices. Short straw carries short heads
and consequently theyield must be light
however plump the kernel may be.
Selecting continually from tall straw
with long heads would naturally tend
to increase productiveness .—New York
Farmer.
Poultry Note*.
Feed the moring meal to your fowls
warm. Scald the boil and mash
the potatoes or turnips, and mix these
for the early day's feed.
Give soft feed to poultry in the morn¬
ing, and the whole grains at night, ex¬
cepting a little wheat or whole grains
of corn placed in the “scratching
place” in the forenoon, to furnish em¬
ployment during the day.
Secure your rowen for winter feed¬
ing of poultry before it is too late, and
before severe frosts, if possible, for it
is injured in quality by being frost¬
A piece of bright tin hung in the
open air, near the poultry yard, will
reflect the sun’s rays, and may alarm
the ever mistrustful hawk. Shaping
the tin like a cube increases the effect.
Lard mixed with sulphur in proper
proportions, and applied, as often as is
necessary, to the feathers on the neck
and back of old and young turkeys, is
a very good safeguard against the rav¬
ages of foxes.
Hone meal and crushed oyster shells
may be used generously in feeding
fowls. Placed by themselves fowls will
devour no more of this mixture than
they naturally require to assist in di¬
gestion, and to help in forming the
shells of eggs.
If convenient, provide temporary
roosts outside the poultry house for the
next two months, so that the old fowls
will not be compelled to huddle together
hot nights upon the old perches. This
method will help wonderfully to keep
lice at bay.
Every one who has fowl should pro¬
vide a dust-box. Fine road dust, coal
ashes, sand, pulverized loam, or even
clay, are all very good, and with a
sprinkling of powdered sulphur consti¬
tute as good a bath as can be desired.
This should be placed in a sunny ex¬
posure of the room, and kept dry and
clean so that the fowls may enjoy its
benefits when they choose.
Household Hints*
Wrap fruit jars with paper to keep
out the light.
Sugar should be browned in a dry
pan for sauce.
Figs are good boiled five minutes
and served hot.
Keep preserves in a dry place; seal
with flour paste.
Boil coffee in a salt sack; it is
nicer than egg to settle it.
To prevent the juice of pies soaking
into the under crust, beat the white of
an egg and brush the crust with it.
If applied immediately, powdered
starch will take out many kinds of fruit
stains on table linen. It must be left
on the stained spot for a few hours,
until it absorbs the stain.
Heel pc a.
Cheese Toast .—Put half an ounce of
butter in a frying pan; when hot, add
gradually four ounces of American
Cheese. Whisk it thoroughly until
melted. Beat together half a pint of
cream and two eggs; whisk into tho
cheese, add a little salt, pour over
toast, and serve.
Rice Toast with Poached Egy .—Boil
the rice the night before it is to be
used; put it in a bread-loaf pan and
keep on ice; the next morning, cut it
in slices, brush a little melted butter
over the broiler and the sliced rice, and
broil, or rather toast before the fire.
When done, butter the slices, place on
each a poached egg, spot the top of the
egg with a little black pepper, and
serve.
Tapioca Pudding with Peaches .—
Wash half a pint of small tapioca;
put it in a double boiler, add a liberal
quart of boiling water and boil half an
hour. Peel and halve a dozen peaches,
put them in a pan, add one quarter of
a pound of powdered sugar, a salt
spoonful of mixed ground spice, four
ounces of butter and the grated rind
of a lemon. Pour the tapioca over the
fruit, bake to a delicate brown, and
serve—hot or cold—with cream or
sauce.
Lamb Fritters, Tomato Sauce. _
When cold roast lamb will not slice
nicely, owing to its having been badly
carved at the preceding meal, it may
be served as fritters. Trim the meat
free from the bones and cut it very
fine; to one pound ot this add half a
scant teaspoonful of salt, a dash ot
pepper (red and black mixed) an 1 (he
yolks of two eggs; bind together and
shape the mixture into small th in
cakes, dip them in beaten egg, then in
cracker crumbs, repeat the promos,
and drop them in very hot fat. feerve

TOPICS OF THE DAY.
The grocers, butchers, and small
traders in many cities keep records of
various kinds, 7 in which they enter the
moral , and . financial standing of the
people in their region. It thus often
happens that a wage-worker's name
will be marked in terms which will
lead the dealers to press credit on him
at every turn, while his reputably-rich
employer will be printed or written
down as a good man to sell goods to
for cash. It is better, the Chicago
Current thinks, ’ to be such a poor * maa
than such , a rich , man.
A singular decision is creited to the
supreme court of Indiana. It is that

Among the earliest and most im¬
matters to which the*Tnited
Senate will have to direct its at¬
when it meets, in December, is
the new extradition treaty with Great
Britain. The negotiations in regard
to this instrument are now said to be
practically completed, and all that is
needed to put it into operation is rati
fiication here and by the English Gov¬
ernment The Canadian Government
has already given its assent to the
provisions of the proposed treaty, so
far as they affect Canada, and when it
is adopted by both the principals there
will be an end to at least one refuge
for defaulting bank cashiers and other
roguish financial officers. The new
treaty makes special arrangements
with regard to the class of criminals
who are given to embezzlement and
financial fraud of all kinds.
“Banks are constantly being im¬
posed upon,” said the cashier of one
of the largest national banks in New
York city the other day, “and the pub¬
lic knows nothing about it. Why, if
I was to tell you that the son of one
of the largest dry goods merchants in
New York had presented two forged
checks to this bank within the past
month, got money on both, and escaped
arrest and publicity, you would hardly
believe it; but it is so. Ilis father
made good the amount. Almost every
week some one manages to defraud us
some way, and it Is only once in six
months we ever report the case to the
authorities. In the first place, it hurts
a bank’s reputation to get caught too
often; but the principal reason for our
silence is, it wouldn't pay us to com¬
plain. In nearly every case the cul¬
prit is a friend or relative of some in¬
fluential customer. That is the way
he manages to secure his credit, and
the customer nearly always ‘talks tur
key’ when we go to him about the
matter. Use as much precaution as
we can, we have to trust some people.
Of course we can, as a rule, protect
ourselves against professional sharpers
and strangers by requiring identifica¬
tion, but there is no way of prevent¬
ing our customers from defrauding us
by atoo close scrutiny of their checks.
That might drive away good business,
and we have to take our chances as to
the paper being all right.
Going Into Battle.
Sivd Captain George W. Stone yes

ever went into a battle without feel¬

I’ll tell you when a man feels real
badly, it’s when he is forming his

little skirmishing fire is kept up ail
the time. Every minute or so some
one, maybe your be3t friend, standing
right next to you will shriek out “Oh,
my God!” and fall back dead, yet you
cannot let your men lire, for the army
must be drawn up first, There is
plenty of time to think, You don’t
dare to retaliate in any way. The
next bullet may find your heart, and
your children will be left fatherless.
It is a moment that tries the bravest
man, because he has to stand quietly
and take it all. But when the order
comes to fight and the excitement of
the battle arises, fear passes away.
You Lave something to do. You
have a duty to perform at any cost.
Bullets drive into the ground at your
feet, sending up little clouds of dust;
they whistle past your ears, and may

Water-Grabbers.
Nevada Owing to the system of land piracy,
has been regularly swindled in
every real estate transaction in which her
interests were concerned. The man who
bought forty acres of land contiguous
to a spring, river or lake, had the actual
possession and enjoyment of perhaps
10,000 or 20.000 acres adjacent thereto
without the latter costing °So him a nickel,

about twenty-five thousand acres of land,

the balance. That for which he ought
