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 | with tomato sauce.— Cook. 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 an owner of property destroyed by fire from sparks * negligently 6 permitted to from locomotive , .." may recover escape a Its full value from the railway com- ; pany, notwithstanding the fact that the me uronertv properly was was fullv IUliy insured insureu and anu the me insurance company has paid the loss. In other words, if a person happens to be lucky enough to have a building burned by J a chance spark r and also has It . solvent m company, he may get twice its value in solid cash. 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 terdav: “I don’t believe any man ever went into a battle without feel¬ ing frightened. I know 1 never did. I’ll tell you when a man feels real badly, it’s when he is forming his men into line for a big battle while a 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 be cut holds in your clothing. Shells and , shrapnel . , , kill comrades , your and leave you living, and soon tliere comes a feeling . that some good for tune preserved y vou uu and will Kill protect pioieci you, and the desire to do as much damage to the enemy alone Dlls your mind. That was my experience in the army, and I don’t believe that the man lived who did not feel at commencement of a fight that he would rather be somewhere else._ Cincinnati Times Star.

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, The reason is obviou. long as the buyci bolds a goon title to th" land b >r dering on a stream he is monarch of ail he can see beyond and around that streain. The owner of forty acres upon which men exists exists a a snrino spring thus' thus 1ms l.as a a fc i.tc range, or pasturage, of several square miles, an l the State is out of pocket by the operation. In illustration of this evil we can cite one case out of a thou _____, sand. T In „ _ a certain ____ township . , . ,, there are about twenty-five thousand acres of land, but only two springs. At $1.25 an acre this township ought to realize for the State the sum of $31,250. V.. But the land pirate kn ..... >ws that b> buying • up the ., land , , immediately surrounding the spring he practically becomes the owner of twenty five thousand. He therefore buys the iiibdi.iaion which th, law ^ mits, that is. forty acres around each spring. For these two small tracts he is allowed twenty years iu which to pay the balance. That for which he ought to pay $31 250 he gets for $100. In other words, the btatc has bcco selling these water grabbers, mainly consisting of a rich and powerful syndicate of cat tlemen, her lelccted lands at a rate less than half a cent an acre.- Virginia CUy \i\ev.)
