THE WORLD’S FAIR.
A Novel Structure for the Naval
Department’s Exhibits.
It Will ba a Fully Equipped
Model of a Man-of-War.
The government’s exhibit at the
iVord's Fair in 1893 promises to be
one of the most interesting features of
the Exposition.
The most popular featuro of the ex¬
hibition will be the exhibit of llio
Navy Department. Capt It. IV.
Meade, U. S. N., suggested some time
ago that as the navy would have a
large and very interesting contribution
to make to (ho Exposition, it would be
desirable to present it as an object
lesson, in a structure resembling as
closely as possible one of the latest
designs of the constructor* of our
navy for a powerful mau-of-war.
Tho suggestion met with prompt ap¬
proval, both for its novelty and its
practicability. Instead of arranging
tho exhibit of the Navy Depart
meat in a hall, it will be put
in a structure resembling in
every detail a 10,000-ton coast¬
line battle ship, like tho Indiana, tho
Massachusetts, or the Oregon, now
building. It is considered desirable
by the inventor of this design that
the building should be erected at the
Jake front, but unless the local board
in Chicago will expend the money re¬
quired to erect a breakwater, it may
be necessary to sacrifice tho realism
that would be seourod by constructing
the model of the ship upon piles driven
into the bottom of the lake, and set it
up on shore near tho government
building.
The model will bo 318 feet in lencviL
~ Jllf - all ap
pearance will bo identical with the
battle ship that will cost $3,000,000.
The materials of construction
will bo brick, iron and wood,
and plaster will be combined
with paint in effective imitation
or iron anil steel. Upon this model
ship there will bo mounted fifty guns
of ail calibres, from tho great 13-inch
monster, that carries a projectile
weighing cloven hundred pounds, to
the one-pounder rapid tiro guns and
the gatlings. Everything appertain¬
ing to the fully equipped battle ship
will bo seen in its proper place. Tur¬
rets, torpedo-boats, torpedo nets and
booms, boats, anchors, chain-cable*,
davits, awnings, deck fittings, and the
appliances for working all of tlieso
things, willba shown. Tho 13-iuch
guns, of which there aro four, will bo
--a-*.-, s»o iCAl mm unu carriage
weigh 115 1-2 tons, and would require
a building of groat •trongth
for support. Officers and sea¬
men and marines will be de
failed to illustrate tho discipline and
mode of life on shipboard. Tho super¬
structure will show the cabins, sfato
rooms, mess-rooms, galley, mess
tables for the crow, lockers, and othor
fittings. Thero will bo opportunity
to exhibit on tho berth-dcok tho tna.
ehinery by which the ship will bo oper¬
ated, cliarts and instruments of navi¬
gation, ordnance implements, inclu¬
ding electrical devices, gun-carriage
motors, range-finders, models of type
ships, and samples of provisions,
clothing, bunting, signals and flags.
Thero will also bo pictures of naval
heroes from tho time of Haul Jones
to Farragut, Foote and Porter, and
the costumes of tits navy from 1774 to
the present time will bo worn by the
attendants.
Soon after the proposal was made
to put tlie naval exhibit in a model, it
was objected to by persons who
thought it would provoko ridicule of
the navy. This feeling has been
largely dispelled by tho prompt adop¬
tion iu Englaud of Captain Meade's
idea. At tho naval exhibition to be
held at Chelsea during the coming
fall, tho most attractive feature, it is
expected, will be a full-size model,
built upon a lawn, of Lord Nelson’s
Victory as she appeared at the battle
of Trafalgar. Captain Meade’s sug¬
gestion has been received also with
enthusiastic approval in the French
papers, which have published illustra¬
tions of it, accompanied by elaborate
descriptions. What the Navy De¬
partment also hope is that tho Western
people of the prairie will take an
interest in the navy when they see
what one of her ships of war is like,
and will not grudge iu future $3,000,
000 for one ship. — [Harper’s Weekly.
The Xautieal Mile.
Distance at sea is measured in miles,
and in the second place that speed at
sea is measured in knots. The idea is
general that a knot is the same thing
as a sea mile, but a knot is a speed of
one nautical or sea mile an Lour,
hence the expression “knots an hour,”
referring to the speed of a ship, is lub¬
berly as well as incorrect. The nauti¬
cal or sea mile is a fraction over 6086
feet, the English measured mile, SO
that one knot of speed is approximate¬
ly 101.5 feet a minute.—[Boston Cul¬
tivator.

A GOOD AXLE GREASE.
A very geod axle grease is made as
follows: Four pounds of tallow is
melted and one pound of castor oil it
mixed with it. A pound of
powderod black lead is then stirred in
until the mixture cools. 1 his is better
than any purchased grease. The best
purchased axle grease is the palm oil
sold in wooden boxes, Castor oil
alouo is the best for buggy axles.—

SUCCESS IN FEEDING PIUS.
The degree of success which will
he obtained in feeding pigs will be
largely modified not only by the breed
which is kept, but also by the manner
in which the breeding is conducted.
In-and-in breeding, unless the ani¬
mals are selected with an unusual de¬
gree of skill, will eventually result in
weakened constitutions, and an un¬
profitable class of animals. A great
leal of care is needed to make it a
success, and good strains are so readily
secured that, under ordinary circum¬
stances, it will be unwise to mate
fioseiy related animals.— [American
Dairyman.
HANDLING SICK FOWLS.
No one wishes the disagreeablo duty
of handling sick fowls. A sick fowl
seldom cares to eat, but it will drink.
Then why not give tho medicine in the
drinking water, Here are a few rom
cdics. For the cholera give a tea
spoonful of liquid carbolic acid in
each quart of drinking water, For
indigestion use five drops of the tinc¬
ture of nux vomica, For roup use a
lablospoonful of chlorate of potash.
For general debility use tbo nux vom¬
ica one dav and twenty drops of tinc
* sj yj a A, uie next. For little chicks
tliataie weak in the legs use a table¬
spoonful of phosphate of soda. Give
til tlieso remedies in one quart of wa¬
ter. They may not be “sure cures,”
but the method is the easiest, cheapest
ind best. — [Farm and Fireside.
OVERFEEDING FOWLS.
Many beginners in poultry keeping
fall into tho error of overfeeding
their fowls. Even a little overfeeding
continued for some length of tlmo is
far more injurious than underfeeding.
It causes indigestion, resulting in a
drooping, morbid condition of the
whole system and finally enlargement
of the liver and sudden death. Fowls
tints overfed will give but few, if any,
eggs, are subject to the attack of any
malignant disease floating iu the air,
and are a decided los* generally.
Fowl* all mi 111 ho -fori }mfc mrifloraf ol ft,
and it is always an excellent plan to
scatter their dry feed iu the hay or
straw litter in tho yard or on gravelly
places where they will bo compelled to
itratoh for it. This will insure a rea'
tollable amount of muscular exercise
for their legs and body, and help as
much as anything elso to keep them in
t healthy condition, and profitable de¬
velopment.— [American Agriculturist.
PRUNING APPLE TREES.
I think nature gives us some valu¬
able hints, writes ft Now York fruit
grower, that we would do well to ob¬
serve in our pruning of fruit trees.
Everybody knows that the fruit on the
inside of an apple tree is much infe¬
rior in size and in all other respects,
to far as valuable qualities aro con
corned, to that produced on the top
branches and the ends of tho limbs ex¬
tending outward from the trunk, In
deed I would say that all the apples on
a tree that cannot be readied by a lad¬
der moved around on the oulside of it
had better be packed in barrels by
themselves and marked as seconds if
they are harvested for sale at all.
Thi* would seem to teach that we
should spare but few, if any, bearing
brandies and twigs immediately
around the trunk, where the fruit will
have to grow anil mature Imperfectly
in the shade of the top and outer
limbs. I know many persons who
favor low apple tree* and prune with
an aim to produce a low-speading
habit in their trees, but for myself I
don’t want an apple tree with branches
so low that I can reach the apples
while I stand on the ground, I would
keep the centre of the tree well pruned
out and shorten the top branches of
the stem just enough to bring the fruit
within reach of the picker on a long
ladder. It is on the extreme twigs
most difficult to bo reached that the
finest fruit will usually be found.—
— [New York World.
CWtK OF TOOLS.
Tools and implements are damaged
more by rust and exposure to alter¬
nate rain and sunshine than by actual
mage. Rain and dew will rust the |
bright journal bearings of farm im~
pleinents on one side, perhaps,render
ing that side rough, Then that side j
of the bearing will begin to < • cut” or ’
wear away; and as soon as one sido
of a journal begins to wear it will
wear faster . ... and faster . until the bear- ,
l
ing is damaged beyond repair, requir- ;
mg Rain the and substitution dew will expand of a new the journal- j
wood,
work of implements, and soften the
grain of the surface, after which the
heat of the sun will dry and crack the
wood, making numerous small fissures
for water to enter. Piow-fiandles and
many other parts of implement, that
uave bo«u bent after they have bo"ii
to the influences of rain and
lose their desired
form and shape, Shovel
handles, scythe-snaths, cradle j
Angers, and some other bent portions
of hand tools and horse implements
are often ruined by exposure to storms
and sunshine, Let it bo an inflexible
rule of the farm that tools and imple¬
ments must not be left outdoors, ex
posed to the damaging influences of
wet and dry weather. Let every
helper understand that he must clean 1
hoes, shovels and spados, wipe the
blades dry, and put them under sliel
ter as soon as they are not in actual
use. A man will accomplish just as
much per day if lie is required to clean |
his tools and put thorn in a dry place j
as lie will to throw them down where
ttiey were used last, covered with
dirt, and exposed to the weather.—
[American Agriculturist.
RAISING TURKEYS.
Get a good breed to start with; it
costs no more to raise a turkey that
will bring the best price than to raise
one that sells low. Generally it is
best to arrange to hatch out early.
Keep them growing so that they will
be ready to market early in the tall.
Where one has a comfortable home
and the turkeys are gentle enough, it
will pay to hatch late turkeys and kocp
thorn until after the middle of winter.
But with the average treatment given
they ought to lie ready to market be.
fore severe cold weather sets in.
Turkey liens seem to delight in
stealing thoir nests out, and must bo
watched, or many of their egg* will
be lost. A barrel or box laid on out
side with a Little straw in it and a few
pieces of hi uah thrown over it or a
few boards set up in a oovuor of the
lence with a little straw or brush will
often tempt them to make a nest there,
and tho eggs can be ranch more
readily found than if they aro allowed
to hunt a place for nests among woods
and brush. Sot tho first layings under
a common lien. Generally turkey
hens are poor mothers and will tramp
with tiieir young through tho wel
weeds and grass without mercy.
Cold and dampness aro deatli to
young turkeys. They must be kept
comfortable and dry, penning up at
night and on rainy days so as to make
sure of keeping them dry.
At first the young turkey needs to
bo fed often. They arc hearty eaters
and need feeding to get a good start
to grow. Feed at regular intervals
and give them all that they will eat up
clean and no more. Poultry never
should have any food left over.
Five times a day for tho first twe

and after that they can bo , fed , , throe ,,
times—morning, noon and night,

that it is warm and pleasant. After
they are reasonably well feathered
they can be given a good range ami

once a day in order to induce them to
come home regularly at night. Tur
keys, more thau any other fowl,
will go to roost wherever night catch .
cs them ami aro more apt to stray off.
Sweet milk and curd with cormeal
bran scalded and sonrhum seed make
a good feed for young turkeys, Give
them plenty of pure, fresh water and
clean quarters and they will thrive and
grow amazingly.—[St. Louis Repub

FARM and garden notes.
Get the eggs to market while fresh,
Warm, dry quarters and no lice will
cause chicks to grow wonderfully fast.
If you have tobacco stems about the
place, use some of them in the nests.
Don’t have draughts in the hen
house or the drafts in the bank will be
light. -
It is rarely the case that a good lay.
ing breed will be the best as a table j

An imitation of Natu re
—that’s the result you want
to reach. With Dr. Pierce’s
Pleasant Pellets, you have it.
They cleanse and renovate the
whole system naturally. That
means that they do it thor¬
oughly, but mildly. They re
the smallest in size, but the
most easiest effective—sugar-coated, take. Sick
to Head¬
ache, Bilious Headache, Con¬
stipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all derangements
of the Liver, Stomach and
Bowels are prevented, relieved,
and cured. Purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless, and gently
laxative, or an active cathar¬
tic, according to size of dose.
As a Liver Pill, they’ve been
imitated, but never equaled.
