Gown for Winter Dairies.
Cowl for winter dairies should come
In about 'September. The calves are
given tho whole ulllc only for five days,
when thoy^jo'et warmed sweet skimmed
milk. The winter dairy season begins
in October and lasts until July, when
the demand for butter falls off and butter
making gets troublesome. If the cows
oanqOt ail be brought in at the desired
time, some should bo bought or ex
changed, and the heifer calves bred at
the right time for futuro use. One can
not always make a complete change from
summer to winter dairying, but it must
bo done gradually.—Note York 'l imes.
Storing Cabbages In Pits.
There are several objections to storing
cabbages in the cellar, even where there
is plenty of room. Tits aro sometimes
used for this purpose, but trenches are
considered preferable by those who have
experimented with the various methods.
The following hints in regatd to the
Btoring of cabhngos in pits from Waldo
F. Brown,as published the Ohio Farmer:
“To bury cabbages select dry land with
a slope to carry off the water, pull them
on a dry day, aad if there is any water
in’thc heads invert them and let them
drain. Open a trench eight inches deep
and wide enough for about lour rows of
heads packed as closely as they can be.
Permit to remain a part of the leaves, to
protect them, and no straw will be
needed, but the earth may be shoveled
directly on to them. Put on from ten to
twelve inches of earth, and shape it up
so as to keep out the rain. After tho
ground freezes, protect the pit with
straw or corn fodder, so as to prevent
freezing and thawing, as this is what
spoils them. Enough for use up to
Christmas may be. stored in boxes in a
cool collar. J oose heads may be stored,
roots down, and will grow and make
solid heads by spring. Open a flat
trench four or, five feet wide and set a
row across the upper end, setting them
at an angle of forty five degrees with
tho heads backed as closely as possible,
then coprNie roots with earth, tramp
it dow^d them, and place another row
with-^fre heads resting above the roots
of the first row. When your pit is filled
it will show a solid mass of heads. Now
put up boards'll foot wide or more around
the edge, and cover to this depth with
light litter, using first corn fodder and
then leaves, and put a roof over it, and
although the heads may freeze a little
the roots will not. and the cabbage will
mature and bo crisp and fresh in the
spring. If jousee signs of mice put
some pieces' of apple with a little
strychnine on them around tho top ol
. the pit.”
The Wheat Ply.
This is one of tho most formidable
enemies of the wheat crop in the United
States. Many sorry crops have been
charged to freezing out or unfavorable
season, when tho fly was the cause of the
bad crop. Its ravages are greater in some
localities, and greater some years than
'btherar- -Its—most favorable season is
early in tho fall; therefore, early-sown
wheat is more subject to its attacks. The
fly is very sensitive to cold, and perhaps
sowing after a good frost is the best
remedy for this enemy.
The fly lays its eggs on the leaves of
wheat, soon after the plants are up. In
four or five days the eggs will natch,
and, as soon as hatched, the worms will
crawl down the leaf and work their way
between it and the main stalk, passing
downward till they come to a joint, just
above which they remain, a little below
the surface of the ground, with the head
towards the root of the plant. Having
thus fixed themselves upon the stalky
they become stationary, and remain until
transformation is complete.
The Hessian or wheat-flies do noteat
into the stalk, as some may suppose, but
they lie lengthwise on the surface, cov
ered by tho lower part of tho leaves.
They art? nourished wholly by the sap,
which they take by suction. As they
increase in size and grow plump and
firm, they become imbedded in the side
of the stem, by tho pressure of their,
bodies upon the growing plant.
When everything is favorable to tbe
flies, they will be oc;upied for several
weeks depositing their eg s. The iiy
will often lay twenty or thirty eggs on
one leaf, and, when such deposits are
made, tho young worms will draw all the
sap from the plr.nt, and it dies. When
their places arc found in the wheat, and
the stalks look weakly, if the stalks are
pulled up and the lower blade pulled
back, the larva or worm is seen at the
joint.
As soon as the flics are hatched out in
the spring, they are prepared to lay their
eggs on the leaves of tho wheat sown
the fall before, nnclqgsso tho spring wheat
which is 'making its appearance above
the surface of the ground. If all things
are favorable, the fly will continue lay
ing for about three weeks, and then dis
appear from tho fields. When these
eggs are hatched, the worms pass down
the leaf, as in the fall. In this state
they are found at harvest, and, when
the grain is gathered they remain in the
stubble, where most of them will be
transformed into flies early in the fall.
For th : s reason, it is best- not to sow
wheat on the tame land two years in
succession.—Prairie Farmer.

PLEASANT LITERATURE FOR

Selecting Saleswomen.
A traveler in foreign lands says: .“If
one were to judge of tho physique of
English women from the specimens bo
secs in tho shops, behind the counters,
ho would sot them down for a very tall
race, but if he inquires into the subject
ho will find that these women are
selected for their very height—the tailor
their figure tho lieigher their salary, very
often. A strangor with an observing
e will also notice that English and
rench talcs women, or salesladies, as
they are called in New York, dress in
black whilo on duty. This, however, is
not a mere caprice on the part of the
women; in most shops it is compulsory.
The shopkeepers believo that shopwo-
men look neater and better in black than
in colors, and so all of them wear black.
Tho gowns may be of any material, but
the color must be uniformly black. Nor
are they allowed to wear showy trim
mings; and as for jewelry, either real or
imitation, it is out of the question. In
some shops they may, or rather they
must wear a sitnple.plain linen collar and
linen culls; this is the case at Whitely’s
the largest shop in London, and some
say even larger than the world-famous
Bon Marche of Paris.”

Renounced tho Gay World.
A mysterious and striking auction
sale took plnce in New York tho other
day, in an up-town flat. It had evi
dently been occupied by a woman,young,
beautiful, and refined, and she had gone
out of it without removing even her
rings that lay in the jewel-stand on the
dainty dressing-table. Everything was
sold uureservedly. A piano, with a pile
ol songs and sheet after sheetof classical
music; a library containing all the best
of modern authors, and many of whom
the verdict of the ages have consecrated;
books finely bound and artistically il
lustrated, allowing that the reader liked
to have her mentul food served up on
dainty dishes; pictures thnt, while they
were not, perhaps, very costly, showed
the owner knew the best and appre
ciated it; bric-a-brac of all sorts and
well selected; a table service, consisting
of napery-like satin and china, showing
the best of tho Wedgwood, Sevres, and
Worcester manufactures. And wearing
apparel dainty enough for a princes—
tiny satin slippers, five-and-a-half gloves,
stockings like silk cobwebs, and hand
kerchiefs as fine—quaint, picturesque,
made evidently for a tall, slim woman;
Eastern shawls, delicate lace-trimmed
lingerie—ail the beautiful things with
which a high-bred and luxurious woman
surrounds herself. Apparently no selec
tions had been, nothing kept back, and
the woman had walked away beyond a
doubt with nothing but the clothes she
wore. The auctioneer, said, briefly, in
answer to all interrogations, that tho
owner had suddenly determined to go
into a convent, and had directed that
the entire contents of the flat be disposed
of for tho benefit of the institution she
had entered. It was plain that the great
tragedy of a life lay behind it, but what
it wa3, the details of it, will never be
known.—a. rgonant.

Mrs. Cleveland’s Engagement, Ring.
Mrs. Cleveland’s engagement ring is
net, as is generally supposed, the
beautiful diamond ring which she wears
just above her wedding ring, but is a
large, old-fashioned seal ring, which
now adorns tho President’s finger.
There is quite a little history attached
to this ring and the way it came to be
bestowed upon Mrs. Cleyeland.
A few days before the departure of
Mrs. Folsom and her daughter for
Europe it will be remembered tho Presi
dent went on to New York for the pur
pose of seeing and bidding them good-
by. It was upon this occasion that tho
President first definitely asked Mrs.
Cleveland to become his wife and fixed
the date of their marriago immediately
upon her retu.nto this country. Taking
from liis finger the seal ring which he
hud worn for years, and which had been
originally a gift from Mr. Folsom, the
President placed it on her linger, in
tending, almost immediately thereafter,
to forward her the handsomest diamond
which could be found. This plan Mrs.
Cleveland herself ultimately changed, as
she decided it would be less likely to
attnet attention if, during her stay
abroad, she wore ihe old seal ring which
had belonged to her dead father.
On the day of her marriage, as is well
known, Mrs. Cleveland received a mag
nificent ring and necklace of soltaires
from the President, diamond pins for
the hair and breast from Secretary and
Mrs. Whitney, in addition to numerous
other small gifts of a similar nature from
others. But, curiously enough, the
first diamond ling which Mrs. Cleveland
ever possessed was a tiny little star of
diamonds, which sho wore upon the
little finger of the right hand on the
occasion of her marriage. This ring was
the gift of a friend in New York, who
had known Mrs. Cleveland from early
childhood, and who hearing her mention
the fact that she had never owned a dia
mond, sent the little glittering star
from Tiffany’s the day before her de
parture from Washington when sho
came on to bo married. This friend was
among the number of those who came on
in the same train, and was present at
the ceremony.—Baltimore American.

Black braiding is the rage.
Open sleeves appear upon many dressy
toilets.
Very large collars arc a conspicuous
feature of the winter wraps.
Many of tho most dressy wraps are
still made of three materials.
Puffed sleeves in Queen Mary style aro
a feature of the new tea gowns.
But few of the corsages of tho present
season rhow a visible fastening.
Russian sable promises to be the most
fashionable os well as costly fur for the
coming season.
It is predicted that velvet and laco
will be combined in elaborate toilets
the coming winter.
Green, brown and sulphurino, a new
red which is described by its title, are
fashionable colors now.
Blackbirds, quills aDd ribbons appear
on hats of any shade, for any purpose,
while white ard light green are reserved
for full-dress occasions.

Fumigation.
Shocking Aeeldomt.
So read the headlines of many a newspaper
column, and we peruse with palpitating Infor-
ost the details of the catastrophy, and are
deeply Impressed by the sacrifice of human
Uvea involved. Yet thousands of men and wo
men are falling victims every year to that ter
rible disease, conaump-ion (scrofula of the
lungs), and they and their friends are satisfied
to believe the malady incurable. Now, there
could be no greater mistake. No esrthly
power, of course, can re-tore a lung that is en
tirely wasted, but Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery will rapidly and surely arrest
tbe ravages of consumption, if taken In time.
Do not, therefore, despair, until you have tried
this wonderful remedy.

They have been given thirty days’ leave
of absence and pay. They handled from
18,000 to 22,000 letters per day, and
7,000 newspapers and periodicals. Each
letter had to be punctured and smoked
iu the sulphur fumes for four hours.
Then the letters had to be assorted and
forwarded. Every letter had to be han
dled twice. The sulphur fumes did not
ngree with the postal clerks, and their
health was affected, but not seriously.
They had a colored boy who went into
tho fumigating cars and scraped together
the letters from the wire screens. About
ten pounds of sulphur were burned at
ono time in a car, of which there were
three. The clerks do not see that they
