NASTURTIUMS AS A SALAT*.
. Ir. A. I. Hoot in , his , Gleanings , says
that three or four nasturtium plants
put in a cool corner of the greenhouse
uill make an excellent wintergreen.
they are as good as cress, and more
easily grown. Not only the buds but
the green stems also have a fine pnn
gent flavor, and they arc excellent
served with a small quantity of vine*
gar. I he; plant is best grown iu a
somewhat shaded place for this par
pose. The richer the soil the more
tender will be the shoots.—Boston

The best single grain for horses is
oats, next barley, and, lastly, corn,
With good, sound, heavy oats, weigh
ing thirty-five to forty pounds to the
bushel, horses require, no other grain
or food, except hay, or oat straw, or
hay made from green oafs, with peas
or tares grown \with them. An oeca
sional bran mash is good for horses
under all circumstances; it may be
given once a week. It loosens the
skin and makes the coat shine, if it is
accompanied by a good daily brushing,
This is equivalent to and better than
medicine any time. Shorts is not a
good feed for horses; it is too pasty
and is apt to produce indigestion. -

AH TO WATERING! COWS.
A» European experiment in water
ing dairy cowb shows that eows always
iu their stable gave much better
suits when changed back where they
could get water twice a dnv. It was
found that the milk vield increased
where the eows had access to water at
will, and no decrease of fat contents
occurred. The daily increase of milk
wrs small, but as estimated it would
improve the yield forty gallons per
cow per year. A noticeable feature
of the experiment is that the cows
drank a little less when permitted to
drink at will than when furnished
water twice a day.
By drinking often there was less
chilling of tho stomach than where
water had to be taken twice a day, and
each time in large quantities. J lie

small draught of water some gastric
juice was secreted and wqnt with it,
which was not the case to the same ex
tent where large draughts of cold
water had to be taken.—Home and
Farm.
POULTRY PICKINGS.
A young hen lays a larger litter than
the old hen. It is probable that the
first and second years of a hen’s life
are the most productive of eggs. How
unprofitable then to kill off the young
fowls and leave the aged ones.
Do not give all the fruit and vege¬
table parings to the jugs ; let the poul¬
try have a share.
Is the house overcrowded? Thin
out the poorer specimens and give the
others more room. The flock will pay
better.
Wood ashes, besides setting free ihe
ammonia of the droppings, bleaches
the shanks of the fowls and should not
be emptied iu the poultry house.
A steel trap properly set will catch
tho ’possum that kills the chickens.
Set it inside of the house in front of
the opening where the varmint enters,
protecting it from the fowls by boards
or a wire screen.
If there are no outer sheds with a
sunny exposure for the flock to frequent
they had better be confined to the
house. Wading in slush and standing
iu a winter wind do not promote health
Uor induce laying.
Cooked food fed warm is verv much
more economical and profitable than
raw food. The grains may be cooked
in quantity and fed cold, As they will
keep for weeks in cold weather. Lay¬
ing hens ought to enjoy a steaming
mash containing some meat scraps
every morning. Thin, watery food
can’t be expected to supply material
for eggs. Milk is excellent, and here
i-< another place where winter dairy¬
ing pays.—New York Observer.
THE FT.OWER GARDEN.
Make vour flower garden uear the
house, where you can spend a few
moments every day. A border less
than three feet wide is most eon
venieut in working and weeding, and
can be made any shape desired.
Let the beds be well drained. On „„
some soils, simply raising the earth a
few inches above the grass plat is suili
cient. Ileavv soils often require
underdraining.
The ideal soil for flower culture is a
sandy, clay loam, and whatever foun
dation you have, try to work up to
that standard. The sand gives warmth
and mellowness, the clay gives strength
and holds moisture, while the loam or
vegetable mold is immediate plant
food. As a fertilizer, I prefer sweep
ings from the chicken houses, on
account of freedom from weed seeds;
also a wcekly application of liquid
manure.

The seeds for early annuals may be

articles make the subject appear verv
to most farmers ami would
discourage a great many from keeping
accounts at all. The fact seems to he
lost sight of that bookkeeping is a busi¬
ness as well as farming, and that it
takes a great deal of study and prac
tice to be proficient in either. But
thin should not discourage a farmer,
from keeping books —at least, from
keeping books as Ido. I never studied
bookkeeping, and yet I keep accounts,
and well enongli, I think, for most
practical purposes.

devoted to strawberries, or when we

etc., only those things are written in
the journal which I shall want to refer
to in the future. The other book is
devoted strictly to the daily cash ac
counts.
Two pages are used for every
month, one for expenses, the other for
receipts; they are ruled off into
columns, which have headings, such
as (on the expenses side) “Hired
Labor,” “Food,” “Groceries,” and as
many more as would be of interest,
and what expenses do not come under
these headings are put under the head
ing “Miscellaneous.” The receipts are
entered in the same way and sales of
farm produce are also entered in the
other book in the proper departments,

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
The Dakota Bed potato is gaining
favor in Ohio.
Lack of ventilation is the cause ol
\ dampness in many hives,
‘ Italian bees be distinguished by
may
tlicir three yellow bfinds,
More bees are lost, by wintering
! than by disease or iu any other way.
i The best stock build earliest,
i j up
swarm first and are the best to gatkei
honey.
Swarming is an important factor iu
the production of comb honey in per¬
fection.
The number of advocates of level
cultivation of potatoes seems to be in¬
creasing.
In England acorns mixed with grasi
are considered good food for sheep
and pigs.
When colonies begin to breed
rapidly, supplies will disappear as if
by magic.
Italians produce a larger number ot
bees than blacks, and so, indirectly,
more honey.
Frames of sealed honey can be giver
on any warm day to colonies that seem
likely to fall short.
Bees will ball their own queen just
as quickly as a strange one when she
has sting poison on her.
Well-drained land makes the soil
better, and manures act more readily
and with better results.
Of late years more improvement hat
taken place in the dairy than in any
other part of farm work.
Freezing injures butter, but if it is
to be held Jong in storage it will be
more damaged if kept unfrozen.
Aim high and breed upward. There
lri fwr loss competition at the top, and
consequently prices are much better,
Salt mixed with stable manure will
hasten decomposition and render it
more quickly available tor the use ot
crops.
There is no objection to people buy¬
ing oleomargarine if they want it.
The fraud comes in when it is sold as
butter.
In the greenhouses where lettuce is
grown for the market sowings are
made every ten days to keep up a suc¬
cession.

j Sheep are docile, ensily handled
animals, which will thrive on a great
diversity of food and require less grain
than any other stock. But all these
points become positive disadvantages
if the owner goes to the other extreme
and bestows neither food nor care.
Because the sheep ask little is no
reason why they should’ get nothing,
In feeding cattle for growth rough
ness can be largely used, but in fat
tening the ration must consist of a
much larger portion of grains, and the
grain should be a fattening one. In

Dr. Able relates a case in which he
succeeded in cultivating the diphtheria
bacillus from a box of wooden bricks
with which a child of three years had
playe’d just before an attack of diph¬

made six months afterwards ; there was
no possibility ol the bricks having

Since 1881, the durability of thirty
nine different East Indian timbers
has 'been under test at the Forest
School in Dehra. Perpendicular posts
were used, placed half under ground,
and ono by one the softer and weaker

of rot and white ants, until after a
time only three of the timbers re¬
mained sound. These were Himalayan
cypress, teak and aujan, which had
been exposed ten, nine and seven years,
respectively.
Planet* Without Water.
A volume might be written on the
vast and awful desolation of the lunar
surface; but unquestionably this tre¬
mendous metamorphosis was wrought
when the oceans, whose dry beds we
now designate as mares, retreated to
the interior and literally rent the plan¬
et with explosions of natural gas and
iteam.
If we calculate the eqpled crust of
our earth at fifty miles iu thickness,
and this is perhaps allowing for more
than there really is, then the molten
interior at an approximate estimate
still has a diameter of 7900 miles. We
can imagine what an effect this would
have on the earth’s contour, or rather
on the character of its periphery, if
any of the oceans should iu a colossal
way come in direct contact with this
internal fire. We can turn our large
telescopes to the moon and see, on a
smaller scale, what has occured, and
which, if we may deduce conclusions
from analogy, will be the ultimate fate
of the earth.
Yet, without the water there could
not be a single form of life, for in both
vegetable and animal formations this
is the all-important vehicle in produc¬
tion and development. Beyond any
question it is to the water that all life
forms must primarily refer their ori¬
gin, and there is not a single known
form that can maintain life without it.
The principle of life eauuot lie opera¬
tive except it be in organic moisture.
Neither brain, nerves nor eapilary
tubes are capable of manifesting the
vital principle in a dry condition.
Hence a waterless world is necessarily
a dead world. It is the water that
molds the sphere, gives it its contour,
is the animating vehicle, sustains its
life, and also rends it iu the throes of
dissolution. —Pittsburg Dispatch.
(rlttcosc in Molasses.
The proportion of glucose used tc
the barrel of molasses varies with the
quality of the raw material, but it is
estimated that there arc not infre¬
quently two barrels of glucose added
to each barrel of molasses. The phys¬
ical effects vipon the molasses so
treated are said to be phenomenal, aud
it is a difficult matter for anybody not
an expert to detect the presence of
glucose in the goods. A low grade of
kettle molasses, or, preferably centri¬
fugal molasses, by the employment of
glucose, which is a colorless sweet, is
metamorphosed from a black liquid to
a bright golden sirup of good body,
which is not only pleasing to the eye,
but by reason of the cheaper price of
glucose may be sold to the trade at a
much lower figure than the straight
article, free from adulteration.—New
Orleans Democrat.
Exterminating Sparrows in Maryland.
English sparrows have become such
an intolerable nuisance to farmers iu

extermination has begun in a novel
way. Great numbers of the birds
roost in barns and outbuildings. Tho
farmers, armed with broad, light pad¬
dles and bright lights, go to the build¬

with the paddles. The farmers state
that the apparent cruelty means a
preservation of valuable crops, and

NET WORK OF OCEAN CABLES.
Submarine Wires Abound Everywhere
Except iu America.
The world is now so netted with ca¬
bles, great and small, and new ones
are laid so frequently, that there is
much demand for the services of the
cable-laying ships. A list of the
world’s cables, long and short, set
down in tabulated form, occupies
twenty large and closely printed
pages. The cable map of the world
prepared by the United States navy
department shows that the Mediter¬
ranean is thickly netted with cables
west of Malta. So is the North At
lautic between the thirty-eighth aud
fifty-fifth parallels. The North sea,
the M sea and the Arabian sea have
many cables. The only great uu
bridged ^ spaces itic are the Pacific, the
AU and the great stretch
o{ ^ Indian ocean between Madagas
car ^ Augtralia< There is uo C on
eklerabIe cable uort h G f Stockholm or
south of Nelson, New Zealand. The
Black sea is completely girdled by
land lines and crossed by one cable,
The Gulf of Mexico is crossed, though
ncd a £ j^s widest, by several cables,
and the Wftter s of the West Indies are
becoming thickly netted with short
cables.
Coast communications in the United
States aud Europe are maintained
mainly by land lines, but in Africa,
South America and much of Asia the
same thing is maintained by means of
long or short cable loops. It thus
happens that this country, although
more thoroughly equipped with tele¬
graphic lines than any other in the
World, has a comparatively small
amount of cable within her own wa¬
ters. This may perhaps account in
part for the fact that cable making is
only just beginning to be an important
industry in the United States.
The navy of the United States,
however, lias done a vast deal for the
art of cable-laying. Commander Sigs
bee has invented a highly effective
sounding machine for ascertaining the
depth«of the ocean, an absolutely
necessary preliminary to cable-laying.
Lieutenant Commander Z. L. Tanner
of the navy devised an ingenious case
for deep sea thermometers, and also
improved a thermometer frame in¬
vented by an Italian navy officer. The
navy department has also issued
an elaborate treatise on cable-laying,
and made soundings for the proposed
Pacific cable route .—New York Sun.

He has not only n crouching habit,
but he walks on all four of his legs
and has the motion of most quadrupeds,
using his right arm and left leg at the
same time, and alternates with the
left arm and right leg. It is not ex¬
actly a walk or a trot, but a kind of
ambling gait, while the chimpanzee
uses his arms as crutches, but lifts one
foot from the ground a little in ad¬
vance of the other. They do not place
the palm of the hand on the ground,
but use the back of the fingers from
the second joint and at times the ono

Lamps Require Much Cave.
The wise man who made the inter¬
esting remark that it required a gentle¬
woman to make a drinkable cup of
coffee might have gone on and claim¬
ed that it required a patrician to keep
lamps in order. The ordinary servant
cannot do it. She regards anything
beyond filling the oil tank as a work
of supererogation. Occasionally en¬
treaties may prevail upon her to trim
the wick, but she always does that
with the scissors, which is the worst
possible method.
The lamps should bo wiped with
cheese cloth. The wicks should be
trimmed with the sharp edge of a
visiting card or with a poker, heated
redhot and passed over the wick.
This last method is a little trouble¬
some, but it removes the charred part
evenly. Wicks used for a long time,
even when they do not become very
short, grow thick and are apt to give
forth an unpleasant odor. They should
be renewed once a month at least, Iu
duplex burners one wick should be
trimmed in the opposite direction
toward the center.
Burners should be wiped free from
bits of charred wick and drops of oil
every day. Every now and then they
should be boiled iu strong soapsuds,
to make them perfectly clean. When
they have heed used a long time, they
need replacing.— Hardware.
A Good Furniture Polish.
A good furniture polish may be
made by putting equal parts of spirits
of wine, vinegar and olive oil in a
large bottle and shaking thoroughly
every day for a week, when it will be
ready for use. This polish should be
applied to the furniture with a soft
woolen cloth and thoroughly rubbed
in. If the furniture is very dirty it
may be rubbed clean with a woolen
cloth dipped in keroseno.— Ladies'
