Rake Clean.
Quoth Ralph to his father, the farmer,
‘ Such hay there never'was seen.
How shall we care for it father?*’
Said the father, -My son, rake clean,
r Rake clean, rake clean;
tV, have need of it alt, I ween,”
“But the ows have not space enough,
father,
To h Id such abundance between
The floor and the comb of the building."
Quoth the farmer, “My son, rake clean,
Rake clean, rake clean;
We can care for it all, I ween.”
Then the seasons flew by (and the harvest
Good service that winter had been).
And again in the field were the toilers;
And still said the farmer: “Rake clean.
Rake clean, rake clean;
We have need of it ail, I ween.”
But the lad gazed distressfully round him;
“Loss hay,” said he, "never was seen.
The cattle will surely be stinted.*’
Quoth the farmer, “My son, rake clean,
Hike clean, rake clean;
We shall find there s sufficient, I ween.”

ALICE’S PACKAGE.
“Good morning I” said the new
station agent.
“Good morning!” said Alieo.
They had parted at 11 o’clock last
night, having strolled home from the
concert together, and they had found
enough to talk about then. But here,
under the bantering gaze of the ex-sta¬
tion agent, who haunted the scene of
his former labors previous to bis de¬
parture for Iowa they were tongue
tie!.
“Is there a package for me?” said
Alice, formally.
“I’ll see,” said C’.iry Loomis, explor¬
ing with alacrity.
But Mr. Stark dived into a corner be¬
fore him, bringing forth a large, square
bundle.
“This it?” said he. There was a
twinkle in liis eye. “ ‘Miss Alice Ly¬
man.’ Paid, too. But, see here, now
— ‘Pittsburg!’ AVlio’s sending you
presents from Pittsburg, Ally?” His
twinkle was luminous.
“It s not a present,” Alice retorted.
But I lie ex-ageut was not satisfied.
“PMt-bnrg," he mused. “Seeint to
me that surveyor fellow haded from
Pittsburg, didn’t he, Aliy?”
“Shall I sign herj? ’ said Alice to
Cary Loomis over the entry book.
“And boarding next door, too,”
said Mr. Stalk, “w-y, yes—it’s natural
—natural 1”
“Oh, no, it isn’t heavy, thank you!
Why, lift it,” Alice was saying to
Cary, with a laughing frown for her
tormentor.
"Good-looking fellow too,” said Mr.
Stark. “Wal, Ally, you’vo got my
consent for one.” ’
“Tliauk you!” Alice laughed, but
vexed! y.
She had meant to ray something to
Cary Loomis over and beyond tho con¬
versation about the package—for had
not the pleasant young now station agent
seemed already quite attentive to her?
—but now she could not summon a
word or syllable. If Mr. Stark were
at the bottom of the sea!
“I don’t know how Pittsburgh 'ill
suit you, Ally,” Mr. Stalk persisted,
mercilessly. “They say it’s smoky.
But I s'pose smoke won’t interfere
Alice was gone, and Cary closed the
ledger with a bang.
“Were you joking, Stark,’ 1 ho de¬
manded, “or is that so?”
Stark eyed him. He hud a strong
sense of humor, and he read the new
agent’s secret.
Without absolute statements, he con¬
vinced his young successor that Alice
Lyman had flirted outrageously with
tl^e Pittsburgh surveyor; that ho had
been most devoted; that they were un¬
doubtedly engaged, and that the big
I package from Pittsburg was proof
j of it.
j Cary bail grown a little pale during
the process, but so strong was Mr.
Stark’s humorous sense that he strolled
awny finally with a widened grin.
Cary found his dinner saved warm for
him when he went up to his boarding¬
house somewhat late, and Mrs. Davis,
large and cheerful, waiting to serve it
to him.
But today neither his dinner nor Mrs.
Davis clieerod him. I1 j ate one and re
sponded to the other gl tun y.
“Well, now; maybe you ain’t feeling
just smart. I’ve known change of air
and wtitcr to make folks real sick,” sin
hazarded iu concern.
“Oh, I’m n.l right,” said Cary, sar¬
donically smiling.
“Maybe you need livening up. You’ve
been to the sociables a id concerts, to
be sure; but may be something livelier
—Well, there,” she broke off with
motherly interest, “there’s the m tsic in
{ the park tonight; I gums you'll like to
hear that. You better step over to¬
night,” said his landlady inspiritingly.
He had no intention of going. He
decided, with a certain melancholy sat
isfaction, that he would span 1 the even¬
ing in his room, and without a light;
that would be the fitting situition for
him and hii dejection, She would b.‘
in the park, and perhapi the Pittsburg
surveyor would follow his package, and
be there with her.
All the same, for such is the power of
pretty eyes and red lips, eight o'clock
! He would
found him ia tho park. not
i go near Alice Lyman. Hi strolled about
! ! gloomily. All the town appeared to
have assemble 1. The band was, one
; by one, mounting to the band stand.
“Oh, Mr. L omis! ' somebody ex¬
claimed with a pretty laugh, “I had
almost run over to you!*’
It was Alice—Alice with a loose knot
of young mm anl maidens, not yet
paired off, but well connected.
He joined them, of course; there was
no other way.
And a few minutes later, when they
had paired off, and the band had struck
up, he found himself on a bench beside
her—they two alone.
“Home, Sweet Home!” said Alice.
| “Dear me, Mr. Loomis, couldn’t they
have found something a litt le newer?
“It seems not,” sail Cary, unsmii
ingly.
‘■But how they flat!" fried Alice,
clasping her ears, “And that second
horn is a bar behind.”
She was in a gay mood. Her derisive
words were mirthful.
“And they’ve been practising all the
spring. Well, I could do better with a
comb and some tissue paper.”
A whiff from the syringa she wore
was wafted to him.
Her face, in the dusky light, was
bright and yet soft.
She was thinking about her surveyor,
probably, and laughing in her sleeve at
him. Well, let her.
Poor Cary felt suddenly weary of his
anger. He was in love with a pretty
girl who did not love him—that was
all. She could not lie blamed—he
would not blame her. He could hate
ike man she did care for, but he could
not bate her.
So, while tho band labored unmusi
cally on, he bent toward and talked to
her gently.
He told her of (he really fine open
air concerts ho had heard at Brighton
Beach. lie described the odd, varying
scene—the mass of people who thronged
the walks; the long, crowded hotel
piazzas; tho circular payilion from
which the music poured forth; and
bounding it all, the great still water.
He faund Alice looking up at him,
as he ended, with a keenness in her
eyes and a softer smile.
“I have never been anywhere,” she
said, almost in i*'* whisper. “I don’t
know anything. I woader, Mr. Loom is
—I’ve wondered more than once—that
you care to talk to me! J-’’
But she said more than she meant to.
He knew that her cheeks were hot aud
her eyes confusedly lowered.
His heart throrbed hard. lie got up
abruptly.
“That remarkable march they’ro mur¬
der.ng is driving everybody away," he
remarked. “Shall we follow, Miss Ly¬
man?”
“I think so,” said Alice.
Her fingers pressed his offered arm.
A man, who had been listeniug in his
halted buggy, wheeled about as they
stepped into the road.
lie was driving a colt, and a frisky
one.
Was it tho marvellously bad music
which made the horse jump at ho
turned?
Alice was on tlio point of asserting it,
but he swerve! so close that she sprang
back vvitli a scream.
Somehow tho whirling buggy struck
her. It flew down the road the next
instant, but Alice lay in a prone heap in
the dusty road.
Cary Loomis groaned as he bent ovei
her.
“Alice!” he cried. “Alice, darling!
are you hurt? ’
He raised her to her feet, his arms
about her.
“No, noP she protested. “That
back wheel struck me as it flew around
—that’s all; it didn't even bruise me.
Only I’m dusty enough,” she ended,
laughing.
“I am sosorry!” he murmured. “You
sprung away from me so quickly that J
• could not save you. You must be
hurt.”
“I haven't a scratch,” she retorted.
“I—I think I will take your arm, Mr.
Loomis.”
In a bewildered way he withdrew
and offered it. Thou:
“I owe you an apology, Miss Lyman,”
he said, stiffly, as the/ went, “I—I
called you something. I was so startled
that I nailed you-perhaps you did not
hear me?”
“Yes, I did,” she murmured, with
head averted.
“Well,” lie burst forth, desperately,
.“an apology, did Isay? Well, I apolo¬
gize, Miss Lyman. But I only said
what «ai in inv heart I only said what
I couldn’t he p, -Mis, Lyman. Try not
to Warns me! You will have a light to
teii the man you aro promised to, if you
choose, and he \\ill have tho right to
horsewhip me—but I couldn’t help it!
Try to forget it! I ’’
“I don’t understand you,” said Alice,
turning toward him at last and squarely.
“A\ hat can you mean, Mr. Loomis? Ihe
man I’m promised to? I’m promised to
nobody 1”
But she was promised to somebody
soon and in short order.

don't be stingy wiTn Tom stock.
It is a funny idea that some people
have, that a heifer calf will develop into
a cow on wind. We have known men
who did take some pains with a calf
that they intended to raise for beef, but
who would neglect a heifer calf. It re
quires just as perfect an orgauizitKin to
produce milk as it does to produce beef,
and the only way to make a perfect or
gatuzation is to feed the calf well and
properly. It ought never to be forgot
ten that scant food injures lim t’e digestive
apparatus of a calf, calf that does
not get enough to eat, or that is fed
upon too concentrated food, will not be
a b) 0 to digest as much as it should
when it becomes a cow. — Western Ri-'al¬

TO TEAT CLOVER.
Clover often contains too much sap
for gafe gtacking when the leaves and
outsides of the stems have been browned
and mai , e cri3p by hot ?unshine . The
simple test applied by experienced hay¬
makers however is almost always a suffi¬
cient safeguard. If no drops of sap can
be squeezed out of a handful of clover
by twisting the stems with moderate
force, it is tit to be carted. It is a good
plan to wait two or throo days after
putting up the greater part of a stack
beforo topping it up, covering it with
a cloth if'there is any danger of rain.
This atlows the fodder to settle and
some of tho heat to escapo. Another
useful precaution is to make a chimney
in the middle of a stack by drawing a
sack filled with hay or straw up as the
sack becomes higher and higher, so that
there will be a ventilating-shaft from
bottom to top. It is partly because
these fami liar safeguards are neglected
in fine hay-harvests that large quantities
of hay are usually spoilt when the sun
shines day after day. — Once a Week.
A REMEDY FOR APPLE MILDEW.
Profe-isor B. T. Galloway, chief of
tho section of Vegetable Pathology De¬
partment of Agriculture, Washington,
lias recently succeeded, as the result of
practical experiments, iu producing a
remedy for the disease called pear-leaf
blight and apple mildew, which annu¬
ally causes great destruction to these
trees. As a result of practical experi¬
ments, he feels justified in recommend¬
ing it to the farmert) an l fruit growers
as both efficacious and economical.
Tho remedy consists of tho applica¬
tion of a fungicide, with an appliance
by which 50,000 plants were sprayed in
a day and a half at a cost, not including
labor, of $1.75 for each application,
five being required to secure good re¬
sults. Experiments of a similar nature
were carried on in tlio same nurseries
by which a block of some two hundred
thousand apple seedlings, affected by
the powdery mildew, was treated with
a preparation at a total cost of not ex¬
ceeding two cents per 1000 trees. T.ic
results in this case also havo proved
'highly satisfactory .—Mete
Weeds aro lidely to
ter cultivation of the corn, and othTr
weeds spring up. after cultivation is
ended. It is these weeds which foul
the land for future years. The weeds
in the corn field are neglected during
the hurry of grain and hay harvest,
threshing, hauling manure and prepar¬
ing the ground for wheat. But even
better than is tho scythe aro the sheep.
Let them have the r.un of the corn fields
during the autumn, They like the
shade of tho rows. They will nibble
off the lower blades of the corn,' but
this is in no wise an injury to the crop.
The sheep will also find every weed and
bunch of grass. Their scent is sharp,
and f lle y w ;u discover weeds that would
be overlooked. There are very lew
weeds indeed that will not bo cropped
by sheep< especially of tho Merino
breed; they crop so close to the ground
that the weeds will hardly start again.
The spring calves, if not too strong,
may well be put with the sheep. Unless
unusually large, they will not damage
(}j C co j.n, and will get considerable feed
which would otherwise be wasted.—

tion on the above sub j ec t is as follows:
Tke m next step '' in the preparation is the
digrrinir . of . the holes , for , planting ... the .,
trees. borne . persons , lay great stress
-
the importance of , , having . these
upon '
made , large , and , deep, , which . . . , be
may
well . , lawn with . . , few
rerv in a grass a
*
trees, but , it .. is . a very expensive matter
for an orchard witit thousands, or even
hundreds. Tho holes should be pre
pared as wide as the field, and as deep
as the plow can stir it, as already di¬
rected; that is the kind of holes that
should be dug; if the land has been
prepared in this manner, the opening of
the holes and planting the orchard,
cither deep or shadow, become very
simple matters.
Having determined tho distance at
which the trees shall stand from one an¬
other, hnd the order or plan of plant¬
ing, flag-poles are to be set in the lino
to be occupied by the first row of tree*,
and a deep furrow i3 then opened with
a large plow, drawn by a pair of steaiy
horses. The poles are moved and set
for the next row of trees, and so oo, un¬
til the whole is laid off, making the fur¬
rows as straight as possible. This done,
a single horse with a lighter plow is
driven across these deep furrows at the
proper distance,so that the intersections
shall indicate the stations for the trees.

EVERGREENS.
Ignorance in early days of their
habits, value and proper place, put off
tlj e day of evergreens in this country
nearly a century, and they are only just
beginning to receive that intelligent
consideration that they deserve. Planted
ia tlje seven by nine feneed-in front
vard of former days the very qualities
that give to our larger evergreens their
greatest value made them nuisances of
n very prouounccd type. They closed
the parlor windows from light and air
and sight seeing; they locked branches
across the path, and were wholly out of
place. After a few years of conflict,
and a year or two of complete holding
of the fort, they were shorn of their
glory, trimmed to an unsightly,scarred
aud hideous stem, a more unmeaning
blotch of green on the winter’s Ikown
landscape, and only exciting attention
when the ov hanging boughs shook
snow down the back of some unwary
visitor.
When people become familiar with
the best uses of evergreens, when they
plant them for protection, as back
grounds, and frames wherein to arrange
beautiful pictures of lawn and flowers
and bushes, then we will find them
skirting the outer cJges of ground and
developing their grandest beauty and
symmetry, In pyiatnids of beauty
they will rise from the winter’s snow,
and their various shades of green will
be noticed and admired. The single
lino planted merely to repel the winter’s
blast will gradually widen here and
there into prom' ics and capes by
the addition of 'l Specimens, and
these, as they grow, will lorin bays and
gulfs and inlets of lawn, diversifying
the outline and leading tlio owners to
wonder how they ever contented them¬
selves with a grass plat whoso only
boundary was a wooden fence, differing
from tho adjoining pasture merely in
size and styled a lawn through
courtesy. — Bet's Magazine.
FARM AND GAUD EX NOTES.
The seeds of weeds are often present
among the seeds that aro sown. Farm¬
ers must be on their guard constantly
when they purchase grass seed, or else
they may sow their farms with noxious
weeds.
If the hen and chickens are in tho
habit of staying in the garden, you
might as well pull up the tomato vines,
it will be a waste of time and a great
strain on your patience to let tho two
grow together.
Experiments 6liow that for mere
sustenance a cow of 1,000 pounds
weight must digest about eight pounds
of nutritive material from her food, to
supply which the food must contain
about seventeen pounds of dry organic
matter.
Peach yellow is no new disease,as it is
said to have boon observed in tho vicin¬
ity of Philadelphia as early as 1791.
Whether or not potash is a remedy can
hardly be said to be settled, but it is
well known to be a choice special man¬
ure, not only lor Hie peach, but for all
fruit trees.
A dealer who handles a great deal of
fine butter remarked tho other day: “I
have just had to stop taking the butter
of a man who really makes a very pal¬
atable article, but who will persist in
churning but ouce a week. When this
butter comes in it seems all right; but
or two it becomes rancid.”

There are being gathered at the New
York experiment station specimen calves
of all breeds, two heifers and two steers
of each that aro to be developed to cer¬
tain age of each, charged with the
weight and kind of food of each, with a
view to ascertain *vh. 1 makes tho host
return for the food consumed. Several
breeding associations have put iti calves.
According to JIatthcw Crawford in
the Ohio Farmer, an extensive apple
grower of Illinois is said to plant only
half as far aptrt as tho trees should
stand permanently, and then I 10 brings
three-fourths of them into bearing as
soon as possible by girdling, letting
them produce all they will until tho
permanent ones need tho room. The
girdled trees aro then cut out and the
others have all needed space for growth
and productiveness.
Bones are very tough and require
strong mills to grind them. They aro
softened and broken up in this way: A
pit is dug large enough to hold half of
them and the bones aro put in with
fresh wood ashes and some fresh quick
lime mixed with them and the other
half are heaped in a pile above the sur¬
face. The pile is wetted as it is made,
and when finished is covered with tho
earth thrown out. Mora water is poured
on to the heap to slack tho lime thor¬
oughly.

About Honey Bees.
I have seen, writes <!. W. Demarco,
a single bee clinging front to a smoothly and
dressed bottl'd with its feet,
supporting a living chain of twenty-tivo
bees, thus supporting for twenty-tiro fndefinite times
her own weight, aft time.
There wax a time when I was pnrzlpd to
know how the bee e aid hold on to the
smooth board and sustain such a weight.
Bat the magnifying glass revt a s a lhiely
curved claw at the extremity of each of
the front pair of legs, and these enable
the bee to cling to the wood in any pie i
tion, with its back down ns well as
otherwise, llut lio\\ d os the bee man¬
ege t i run up a pane of glass or a sheet
of polished metal ‘ Her sharp claws
will not serve her in this ease. Veil,
nature lias provided had for that theory in a won¬
derful wjv. I onoo a to ne
count for this wonderful feat, But
when I commenced tovdudx the nnat
omy of the bee under tho mncnifving
g’ass my theory was found to be wide of
the mark. The glass shows an infini¬
tesimal glaml in the soles of the feet,
which secrete a mucilaginous substance
of sufficient tenacity to enable the bee
to cling to the smoothest surface that it
is likely to come in contact with.
Tho mandible i aw) of the honey bee,
when seen under the glass, is a real curi¬
osity. They not of only other open animal, and shut, but
like the jaws am
they have a backward and forward move¬
ment, aud each of the pair is independ¬
ent of the other in its movements. Tho
old class of naturalists believed that the
honey bee, as an artist and a builder,
was a “mason.” But such is not the fact
in the case. Tho honey bee is a
“smith.” She draws out her work, us¬
ing her mandibles in p’ace of the ami lb's
hammer, it would be a simple impossi¬ of
bility to build a wall as th n as that
die honeycomb by any other process.
Beeswax "is the "result of disgested
honey, just as tallow results from the
digestion of tho food of tito ox. But
the beesunx, instead of adhering animals, to the
flesh, ns in the case of fat
passes out of the body of the bee, through
one of the six false pockets on the under
side of the abdomen, in the form of thin
scales or pellets, and while they are
vi arm and pliable the bees seize them
with tlieir mandibles and wold them to
the rims of tho cells, and eont nuo to
draw out the combs untill tho proper
depth of the cells are reached. The
cell walls are ns thin as the lines' tissue
paper known to tlio art of paper making,
and would not have sufficient* strength
to support tho tiny weight of a tiny bee
vi ere they formed not strengthened around them, by an ex
qnis tolv rim sup¬
porting their frail walls below, precisely
as does the wired rim around the tup of
a tin vessel. That these thin walls are .
drawn out and not built on to, is proven
by the fact that the rim around the cell
is as well defined when tho work is first
begun as it is when tho comb is finished,
and is present through the whole process
of construction.
Sunflowers and Miliaria.
In a recent issue of the Russian Medi¬
cal journal, the Mcditzina, a contributor
draws attention to the common sunflower
as an excellent,and cheap substilute for
quinine in the treatment of malarial
fevers of all possible forms. The remedy
has been from time imtnemmoiial used
for the purpose in the Russian, as well as
Persian and Turkish popular medicines,
and that mostly after tho following plan:
A flask is filled loosely with finely cut
dry or recent flowers and stems, and then
w ith vodka aqua viUB. The hermetically
corked vessel is left to stand under sun
rays, or at some warm place, is then for two ready or
three days. Tho tincture
for use, and should be given day. as a small
wineglassful three times a In recent
cases, complete and permanent cure en
sues iti from one to three days; in most
obstinate and inveterate, not later than a
week Tho remedy proved quinine successful, aud
even in such eases where
other anti-malarial means failed.
A Wonderful Tree.
A California man lias just finished
working up .wr tree which grew on his
estate. He received twelve dollars for
the bark, built a frame house fourteen by
twenty feet, eight feet high, with kitch¬
en eight feet wide and twenty feet long;
built a woodshed fourteen by twenty
feet; made three hundred and thirty
fence rails, ten feet long; made three
hundred and thirty-four railroad ties,
and five hundred boards six inches wide
and two feet long, and fifteen cords of
wood, all from one tne, aud has part of
the tree left.
The English Sparrow.
New York lias been reconsidering the
evil things that it said of the English
sparrow in past days. The claim was
that the birds, imported expressly to kill
off tlie caterpillars, did not do it. The
blizzard of 1888 nearly exterminated the
birds, and their present number in New
York aud Brooklyn is very small. Con¬
sequently the caterpillars arc legion, and
trees in all the parks are ruined, which
indicates that the birds really did good
work in previous years.
Tub Jews in New York city have forty
nine synagogue-, and constitute a huger
population than in Jerusalem itself, num¬
bering nearly 90,000. They form an in¬
fluential element, many of them being
bankers, merchants, editors and politi¬
cians.
