FOR FARM AM) GARDEN. ArtVANTAGER* OF LONG RWnnr.R. tVc always favor leaving tho slubblo long in harvesting. The straw is worth as much to bo loft on the field as pro¬ tection for young clover as it is in tho barnyard. Most grain growers havo more straw than they know how to w-e with profit. When snosv comos, this long stubble holds it evenly distributed to a depth that will not readily thaw away with one or two days of warm weather. This removes ono of tho diffi¬ culties in clover growing in many northern latitudes, when clover often winter-kills nearly as badly as wheat.— American Cult.v nor. HOW TO TREAT HOUSES. There are two things which should bo dono by overy farmer who owns hor¬ ses; I he fir st is to abolish the whip, and the other to provido rubber blankets for tho protection of his naimnls from the rains an 1 the cold win 1). A rub- her blanket lined with a woolen one is a perfect protection tor the winter; it affords warmth and shelter from the storms, while by prop-r majo tho un¬ der lining may always be kept dry. To thin k of one’s horses is a duty; this care aud thoughtfulness mark tho kindly owner and will never be ncg'.ec el by ft man svho has a right appreciation of the usolu ness, kindness, docility an 1 acuto sensitiveness of these sagacious animals, who knosv a kind owner and in many svnys rclurn tlie good treatment re¬ ceive 1. If a horse is dumb, his actions often speak better than words, and one who loves his horse as he should can easily interpret their eloquent sign lan- guage and will never use or need the cruel whip.— N.u> York Timet. SUMMEH FUEL. Prepare, during the winter or early spring, sufficient fuel for summr. From tho lima the plow can be startel, until the corn is cribbed, time is too precious to bo used for work that can as we i be done at another season. To chop wood in July or August is decid¬ edly hot work; and if the summer stove-wood is prepared now, the work will not tie put on wife an I girls dur¬ ing tho summer. For summer use, light, dry wood that will burn spilckly nnsl die down quickly, is tho best. Wood may now be cut green, when it works easiest, an l if properly store I, it wii 1 be dry by tho time it is wanted. Such timber as ottonwood, white elm, wild cherry, etc., which makes very in¬ ferior winter fuel, is excellent for summer. The logs are most easily worked by sawing them, with n cross-cut saw, into slovc-wood ie.igth, and splitting afterward. The logs can be hauled up most easily during tho winter, when a sled can bo used. Corn-cobs aro excel¬ lent summer fuel, aud aro well wortli saving for this purpose .—American Ayr iculturiet. FEEDING GRAIN TO DAIRY CATTLE It is suid that it does not pay to feed grain to cows. This can be true of only inferior cvttlo, and it is poor policy to feed these at all after they can be brought to the block. Nothiug is more certain than that tho highest profit lies on liberal feeding of good cows. Tho yield" must be made abovo tho average, and this is accomplished by (he conjunction of gootl feed nud good animal. It is good practice to put every available dollar into a good busi¬ ness aud to get rid of a poor busine s nl ogethcr; and to put all the food that the animal can digest into a good cow. A poor cow should bo got rid of alto¬ gether. The man who finds that it do03 not pay to feed gram to his cows, should change his cosvs rather than his feeding. Ilo should use, not less grain, but better cows. It may be that lie has been feeding unwisely, not in the amount, but in using tho kind of grain. Ciws giving milk should havo a food richer in albuminoids than tho food proper for fattening animds. It would be hurd to make a good profit by fee 1- ing c >rn altogether, even to good cows. —Americ tn Agriculturist. NEW-FANGI.El) MILKING. The teat is ablo to hold a consider- ab c quantity of milk, which, when squeer d out, leaves a vacuum that is immediately filled from tho ducts above. Bo the act of milking consists in press¬ ing out the milk from tho teats by tho clo iug of the Ha iti from above down- 5vaid. If the pressure is not made first from the upper part of the teat the milk may bo forced back insteal of down- 5var 1, an l many slow milkers do lose t me in this way, an l no doubt injuro the cow. Dry milking shoull bo tho rule. Too wet hands or teats is injuri¬ ous to tho cow, and will came tho skin to crack and bscorns sore. It is a nauseous thing to do, nnyhoiv, aud the ilippcry feeling i’, or ought to be, very disagreeable to a cleauly person. It is useless, an 1 serves no gool purpo>c, nor does it “got more milk.’’ A new fangled idea is to rub glycerine on the teats aad the u lder, so as to s'rip the cow and leave the skin 3oft and supple. This is equally useless, and more trouble than to dip the filthy lin¬ gers in the milk and daub the tea’s with it. Any tnilksr, if ho wishes to “strip the teats,’’ may do so with pnr- feet case without w ittiug them, And the udder and teats of a cow always milked with dry hands will always be soft, smooth and supple. If the teals should be cracked or torn by briers at any time, a little plain vasriine applied before millying will solten the skin and pnse the soreness, and the wounds wai soon heal. Another fad is the milking with both hands at tho satns timo in- \ milkers do stead of alternately, Samo this to rest tho writts, but the idea that it increases the milk flow is nonsense. Tho milk can he got out—overy drop— by tho use of tho hands alternately, and this, the usual way of milking, is tho oasiost for tho wrists, which nro the most taxel in tho svork.— N. Y. Tribunt. VARIETY OF FOOD FOII MILK. Dairymen do not, as a rule, give sufficient attention to tho matter of pro¬ viding a variety of foo I for their cows. A variety increases the relish for food. A man will soon tire of ono or two kinds of food if fed continuously od them, and a cow will likewise tiro of at continuous ration of ono or two kind* of food. She will thrive better even if a poorer quality of food be substituted for part of tho ration. Milk is a com¬ plex fluid, composed of nil tho elements of the animal holy, an I for its produc¬ tion in largs quantities, abund¬ ant supplies of good food S’ sufficient variety nro needed, > mixturo of various kind) of grasses will produce more milk and better milk than any ono or two kinds. Au old pasture, if a good one, is better for a cow than recently seeded pasture). An old pas¬ ture usually contains a large variety, ten to fifteen of grasses, while new pastures usually contain only two or three kinds. Milk produced from a cow fed on red clover or timothy hay alone will produce loss highly flivored bultcr than that yielded by cows fed ou ha/ from fields where there are several kin Is of grass growing. Fodder corn is good in it place, to give variety of food, Lu should not be tho principal food given. Cornmcal is one of tho most valuable foods for a cow, but a mixture of com¬ mon!, bran and cotton-seed meal is bet¬ ter. Givo variety and your cows will yield generously .—American Cultivator. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Keep tho hens warm to get more eggs in cold weather. The best romedy for glanders is to kill the diseased horse. The cows naw need extra rations to keep up the flow of milk. Liquid mauure is excellent for plants if not applied too strong. Look nftcr the condition of stored fruit, vegetables and roots. Cornstalks contain more potash than any other fodder fed to cows. Do not allow rats about your hen house. Tho damage they can do pays one to fight them off. To raise strawberries successfully the ground must have rested the year pre¬ viously as a summer fallow. A most disgusting picture of dirt is that of a dirty dairyman, with dirty hands, milking a dirty cow in a dirty barnyard, ausl catching the milk in a dirty pail, where it is left to absorb the dirty odors of a dirty atmosphere. It is impossible to bread profitable, chickens from overfed an 1 stimulated fowls—a bilious hen cannot lay a woll- developed egg and the cluck cannot de¬ velop its several organs aud parts in perfection from a poor egg. Tho only way to suppress wee Is is to suppress thorn boforo they seed, and tlie only way to get useful plant-growth of some sort iustead of the bunoful weeds is to rub the so out of cxisteuco before tlsoy have male any of their rob¬ bery of gruwth at all. It is not yet clear that thoroughbred cows may in the practical dairy go further in profitable dairying than high grades, but tho grading must be dono each time with a full-blood sire, and keep tho influence on the dairy side, which it is impossible to do with a grade sire with a pur.ially unknown nu- cestry. A Banner of Raltlesiinkc Skin. A lady residing on tho west si do lias perhaps tho most unique banner that lias over been seen in Kansas V ly. It is as beautiful as it is unique, and is prized l>y its owner for its beauty and oddity. It is made of tho skin of an enormous rattlesnake, with a back¬ ground of plush. The snake skin was sent the Indy by a friend, svho lives in Tcxa«. It is beautifully tanned, tho back being colored and covered ssitli spots resembling small scales, which ou the background of plush look for all the world like uiosnic. The skin is over five feet loug without the head and tail and fourteen rattles denoted its age. lu tho svidost part the skin is nine inches iu width, thus showing that in life the rightful osvner of tho skin which now adorns tho lady’s parlor must havo been ail ugly custom -r.

Ponn., a party of tramps recently emitted a water tank and converted it into a bedroom. An Iowa girl, F.ora Loak, shot a man dead for serenading her grandfather on the occasion of his latest marriage. A lump of nearly pure lead was re¬ cently taken out of tho ground near Joplin, Mo.

A petrified moccasin was unearthed at Pendleton, Ore., by some laborers who were digging fer the foundation ot a bank budding. It was sent to the Smithsonian Institution. The belle at a recent dog fea?t on an Indian reservation in Dakota wore a jacket trimmed witdi teeth from 150 elks, which she herself had slain. She is the granddaughter of the chief of the tribe. An espalier pear free at Pollet, Fiance, was planted in 1589, and is now tho oldest in Europe- It spreads 100 feet, its stem is three feet through, and it still baars 3000 to 4000 pears yeaiiy. A petrified apple was discovered re¬ cently at Harrington, Me., by seme boys. It had changed to the color of marble. The stem and blossom were apparently as perfoct as when the fruit fell from the tree. Shearing Geese. A curioui esse came before an En¬ glish court lor adjudication recently, says Galen Wilson, in the American Ag. r culturist. A poulterer svas charged svith cruelty to 48 live geese by pluck¬ ing them of their feathers, and tho own¬ er of the geese was charge l with procur¬ ing the commission of the offence. Tho proceedings were taken by tho Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani¬ mals. A witness swore that “after the geese were plucked their skins turned a pm pie color aud they seemed to be in pain. Thoy walked abiut with their backs tip and shrank when touched.” The practice was shown b/ defendants to be very prevalent, aud the aocioty asked for a nominal tine, to put a stop to it. Tiio defendants said it was tho custom of the district to pluck the feathers every six sveeks, and it they wore stopped from doing so many people would discontinue keeping gee'e, as much more money 5vas realized by the sale of tho feathers than by tho gee e. The court imposed a fi ic of eighteen shillings each upon the defendants, and expressed the hope that it svoiild bo’ a warning to other people. Plucking live gsoie and ducks prevails all over tHo United States. It is a barbarous proceeding and the birds are justified in “getting their backs up” at the cruel practice. Should such cases bo prosecuted, doubtless tile courts of this country would decide as did the ' court in question. The e is a species of large water-fowl whose habitat in win¬ ter is the open lakes of the interior, and their feathers aro so firmly set that they cannot be plucked.

A Spider-Web Telephone, Agentleman was watching some spi- dfejs, ffeot when it occurred to liim to try what < the sound of a tuning fork would have upon them, lie suspected that they would take it for the buzzing of a fly. He selected a large, ugly spider, that had been feasting on flies for two months. The spider was at one end of its web. Sounding the fork, the man touched a thread at the other side, and watched the sound it'Suit. Mr. Spider had the buzzing conveyed to him over his tele¬ phone wires, but bow was he to know on which particular wire it was traveling? He ran to the centre of the web very quickly, and felt all around until he touched the thread against the other end of which the fork was sounding; then, taking another thread along, just as a man would take an extra piece of rope, he ran out to the fork and sprang upon it. Then he retreated a little way, and looked at the fork. He was puzzled. He had expected to find a buzzing fly. He got on the fork again, and danced with delight. Evidently the sound was music to him. Mere Flower Shows, Nowadays, a house of mourning be¬ comes, on the day of the funeral, a sort of floral exhibition. In many instances the persons indulging in these displays can florist ill-allord and undertaker the expense, as testify. the unpaid is can It well enough to have flowers a floral wreath or cross, or a tew cut at a funeral. Tlie other day I attended a funeral, and, although the deceased was a poor laborer tvho had worked for a dollar and a half a day, the flowers covering his casket must have cost over a hundred dollars. It would have been better to have given bis poor widow the money than spent it for useless flowers. This is an evil that should be remedied. A Story Without End. We are half a mind to begin to write a story that may never end, founded on facts that are obvious. in Hippodromus, taking his morning walk the streets of Lucignano, comes upon Theodeetes, a la¬ borer, and says to him: “Why are you always at work ? ” Theodeetes answers: 4 ‘I am always at work strength to do get money to buy food to give more work that I may get more money to buy more food to give more strength to do work to get more to get more money to buy more food to get more strength to more work to get more money to buy—” This is the beginning of the story end, and the facts upon which it is found¬ ed—they are without end also.
