Inexpensive Trifles.
Rouse decoration is now so general,
that each family tries to make their sur¬
roundings ns dainty trifles ns which possible; add yet while
there are many to the
tion. looks, expenso is frequently a considera¬
I will therefore try to givo some
hints for pretty articles, the coat of which
is very small. A pretty, and at the same
time useful adornment is a small orna¬
mental feather brush in a ease, to hangup
in a drawing room. The small feather
brush or whisk can be bought cheaply,
and the case for it is made of silver, gold
or which brown perforated originally sold cardboard mats
were to be orna¬
mented with riblsii! slipped in or out
The mat should be worked over with
embroidery silk, and afterward lined with
thin silk, matching the feathers of the
whisk in color. Two sides of the mat
are then gradually and gently bent to¬
gether, so as to make a hollow ease open
at both ends. Very narrow colored rib¬
bon should be passed in and out in the
front, to apparently draw the two edges
together, and finish with a smart little
bow, A bow and loop of the same rib¬
bon should be added at the back, to
hang it up by. The whisk, when slipped
into the ease, should bo passed in handle
first, and downward so as not to disar¬
range the feathers. When wanted for use
it is drawn downward through the case
for the same reason. Another pretty
decoration is a case to hold letters and flat
papers. This can be made of a brown
perforated cardboard mat. First line it
with colored silk. Almost any color looks
well with old gold. Three of the corners
sre then folded inward till they meet in
the middle like the points of a handker¬
chief sachet, the fourth being left un¬
folded by which to hang up the rase to
the wall. Seen at u distance, those wall
pockets have all the appearance of fine
fretwork. Silk kerchiefs, now to lie had
so cheaply and in artistic colors, make
very pretty lamp shades These silk
shades are only adapted round globes for lamps that arc
furnished with or at any
rate that close at the top. Flower-shaded
globes are of course not suitable for
shades. The handkerchief chosen must
be laid flat on a table, and a circle the size
of the top of the globe cut out of the cen¬
tre of it. The hole thus made must be
neatly hemmed round, and if necessary
the stitches can be hidden by a gold bund
or any little gimp-like ornamentation.
Then finished the edges of frill the of kerchief the must looking bo
with a finest
lace or narrow silk fringe. The edge of
the hem may be bordered with arrow rib¬
bon, allowing the lace to stand up in a
frill. One is made of a rose-colored silk
kerchief covered with bouillonne spotted
net, and trimmed with white lace and
rose-colored ribbon. Sky-blue or apple-
green ribbon would look equally pretty.
Another for a lamp or candle is bordered
with pale blue marabout feathers, a lace
flounce covers the top, and the side is
trimmed with a pale pink ribbon bow.
A Flesh-Devouring; Plant.
Mr. Dunstan, a naturalist, who has re¬
cently returned from Central America,
where he spent nearly two years in tho
study of the flora and fauna of the coun¬
try, relates the finding of a singular
growth in one of the swamps which sur¬
rounds the engaged great lake in of hunting Nicaragua.
He was for botan¬
ical and entomological specimens, when
he heard his dog cry out, as if in agony,
from a distance. Running cries to the spot
from which the animal's came, Mr.
Dunstau found him enveloped in a perfect
network of what seemed to be a fine rope¬
like tissue of roots or fibers.
The plant or vine seemed composed en¬
tirely of hare interlacing stems, resem¬
bling, more the than weeping-willow anything else, denuded the
branches of
of all foliage, but of a dark, nearly black
hue, and covered with a thick viscid gum
that exudes from the pores.
Drawing his knife, Mr. Dunstau en¬
deavored to cut the animal free, but it
was only with the greatest difficulty that
he succeeded in severing the fleshy mus¬
cular fiber. To his horror and amaze¬
ment the naturalist then saw that the dog’s
body was blood-stained, while his skin
appeared puckered to have in been actually sucked,
or spots, and the animal
staggered as if from exhaustion.
like In living cutting the vine fingers the about twigs Mr. curled Dun-
sinuous
stan's hand, and it required no clinging slight
force, to free the member from its
clasp, which left the flesh red nnd blis¬
tered. The gum exuding from the vine
was of a grayish dark tinge, remarkably
adhesive, and of a disagreeable animal
odor, powerful and nauseating to inhale.
The native servants who accompanied
Mr. Dunstau manifested tho greatest hor
ror of the vine,which they call the devil’s
snare. He was able to discover very lit¬
tle about the nature of the plant, owing
to tho difficulty of handling it, for its
grasp cau only he torn away with loss of
skin and even of flesh, but, as near as
Mr. Dunstan could ascertain, its power of
suction is contained in a number of in¬
finitesimal mouths or little suckers,
which, ordinarily closed, open for the re¬
ception of food.
If the substance is animal, the blood is
drawn off, and the carcase or refuse then
dropped. A lump of raw meat being
thrown it, iuthe short time of five min¬
utes the blood will be thoroughly drunk
offand the mass he thrown aside. Its
voracity is almost beyond belief, it de¬
vouring at one time over ten pounds of
meat, though it may be deprived of all
food for weeks without any apparent loss
of vitality.
Rub your lamp chimneys after washing
with dry salt, and you will he surprised at
the new brilliance of your lights.

GRABS SEEDING WITH CLOVER.
Tlic pea-vino clover lasts live or six
years nml makos good hay and pasture.
It may bo mix id with timothy and or¬
chard grass, but although timothy runs
out if not treated liberally, it is by far
tbc best grass for hay, tho heaviest and
most nutritious. Orchard-grass hay is
light, and unless cut early it is only
second-rate hay. On the whole, it is
more profitable to have a good meadow
for tlirco or four years than to havo n
poor one for ten, and it is an easy mat¬
ter to break up the sod and reseed. By
using one peck of timothy and ten
pounds of the clover there would 1 c
about equal parts of the two in the hay.
The seed may be sown with oats with¬
out risk if the proper course is taken,
thus; The land should be well ma¬
nured or fertilized or tho grass will not
make a full growth; it should be well
plowed nnd thoroughly harrowed, and
two bushels of oats may be sown and
harrowed in; the grass anl clover are
then sown right after tho harro wing
and another >
light harrowing is given to
cover it. This harrowing is important,
ns it insures the germination of tho seed
in dry w’cathor and the safety of the
young plants. After tho oats are har¬
vested tho young grass should not be
pastured, except late in the season by
calves or a few cows. Under this treat¬
ment there is litilc danger, although
the season may be dry.— N. Y. Times.
STABLE MANAGEMENT OF COWS.
Cows, as a rule, are much more neg¬
lected than any other class of farm ani¬
mals; for while they may got plenty of
food and arc well shcltercl, they do not
have any care bestowed upon them in
tho way of cleansing and brushing.
Many a farmer would laugh at tho idea
if it was suggested to him, yet they
should havo as much attention iu this
respect as the average work horse. It
may seem like a waste of time to groom
the cows every morning, yot it is labor
well spent, and adds to the general
health as well as to the appearance
the animals. No matter how well the
cow stables may be attended to, tho ani¬
mals will bccomo soiled, and to permit the
manure to become plastered on their
hind quarters nnd them to dry and peel
eff is certainly unsightly as well as an
evidenco of carelessness nnd neglect.
If a currycomb is used at all o:i the
cows, it should be a very dull-toothed
one, nnd if new, tho teeth should be
filed down so as not to cut or scar
skin. A good horso brush, as well as
a stiff, long, staple stable brush is what
is required, and a few minutes’ brisk
cxerciso with this each morning, while
the cows aro feeding, will not merely
keep their coats glos-y and clean, but
will go far towards making the animals
gentle and readily hand 1 id and I 033
liablo to tilt over the bucket when
milking them.— Farm, Field aud Stock¬
man.
AT THE TIME OF PARTURITION.
Our domestic animals just before aud
after giving birth to offspring
ought to bo looked to every
tlirco or four hours by day, and
still oftener at night, for parturition is
more certain to take place in the latter
time. Females nt this period arc mo. e
or less feverish nnd uneasy, and require
lrink frequently; if the mother be cold,
do not fail to have the water milk-
warm every time it is offered them; to
ewes and sows as well as to mares and
cows; sometimes this is more import¬
ant for the smaller than the larger ani¬
mals, yet few breeders aro aware of the
fact. There is not much rcsk of over¬
feeding with woll-cured hay, but with
richgrass, and particula ly greon clover
and alfalfa, there is danger, unless moder¬
ately fed, of engendering lioven, and in
any event it is better to mix hay or
straw with these feeds. The only grain
safe to givo at this tinio is wheat-bran,
or shorts. If oil-meal lias been given,
omit this for a few days, especially cot¬
tonseed meat, for that is positively to
be dreaded unless at the South, where
animals are extensively accustomed to
it from birth up; following from gen¬
eration to generation, the same as with
corn and Indian meal, it seems to be
incorporated into their system, and
they can feed upon these two at most
times with impunity. Northern ani¬
mals thus fed are subject to colic, in¬
digestion, compactness in the stomach,
with great pain, followed by a loug
enervating sickness or death. — N, Y.

SCULLION CABBAGE SEED.
Many cabbage growers complain of
the difficulty in getting cabbage to
head. This is sometimes due to pover-
ty of soil and mistake in allowing the
plants to grow up in a tall, spindling
form from the first, But in lar too
many cases the fault is duo to poor
seed that grown from tho stumps of
cubbngo roots, many of which linvo
ntver headed, and which havo always
produced more seed than tho whole
cabbage with root attachod, from
which our reputable seed growers make
their crops, It costs heavily to pro-
duce good cabbage seed, but no other
is worth taking ns a gift. Many of the
country stores are loaded dowa with
the poorer class of seeds, and tho injury
thus dono to farmcra* gardens is a seri¬
ous matter. Without good gardens tho
farmer's lifo loses the feature that to
many most adds to its attractiveness.
Perhaps too, tho failure of his garden
may havo lead tho farmer to rcdoublo
his efforts to growing grain aud other
crops, now low in price because pro¬
duced more largoly than they should
be. '-American Cultivator.
FA JIM AND OAftDEN NOTES.
If you wnnt a good kitchen garden
start it betimos.
Nothing on the farm pays better than
a good garden.
There is as much in planning as in
doing farm work.
An early, healthy growth of a plant
wards off many evils.
S.‘e that your horses have plenty of
exercise—and feed, too.
Millet contains nearly 50 per cent,
more nutriment than corn does.
Tho cows will enjoy the brush or
card as they begin to shed tho hair.
If your cow is in heat nnd has been
served keep her confined away from the
herd.
A little linseed meal given daily to
the cow about to calve will be well
used.
To sell milk pays better than to make
it into butter and cheese and sell it as
solids.
Do you know how much it costs you
to produce a quart of milk? If not,
why not?
Young chicks should be kept warm
at night, a chill means an early death.
Don’t neglect them.
Peoniei are classed among the easiest
grown of our flowers and yet they are
but soldom found in our gardens.
Straw is cheap on mauy farms, but it
is not so cheap that you can afford to
have it the only feed your cow has.
Remember that in nine casc3 out of
tcu failure in the germination of vory
small seeds is the result of too deep
covering.
Do not have the incoming cow too
fat. A good thrifty condition is desir¬
able, Lut ,; beef fat” may cause milk
fever. Look out for that.
Tomato-seed ought to be sown early
in a hotbed, cold frame or window
box, and transplanted to open ground
as soon as danger from frost is over.
A grape grower says that his best
success has been through the use of
green bags of the same shade as the
leaves of the vine for bagging grape3.
Will au average of 125 pounds of
butter per year pay you for tho average
keep—or is your average keep so poor
that it does? Then raise the average
keep and see if the butter average does
not rise. If it docs not, better raise the
average of tho cows. Won’t it pay to
do that anyhow?
It is not always tho best and most
elaborate poultry houses that shelter
tho choicost stock. Success, however,
mainly depends on warm, dry coops
with proper care and management nnd
freedom from over-crowding. This
latter trouble is often the cause of ill
success. If you wish a a healthy flock
keep few in a pen.
Chickens like ground bone occasion¬
ally. There are grinding mills made
that will crush fine all kinds of bones,
as well as crack corn. You will find a
mill of this kind very useful and indis¬
pensable around a poultry coop. Ground
bone can either bo fed with soft food
or alone, and will eat it in any food,
and is one of the articles of diet suited
to them.
Suggestive Names.
The names of the principal moun¬
tains in the world are nearly all sug-
gestivo or descriptive of their snow-
covered summits. Tho names of Snow¬
don, Ben Nevis, Mont Blanc, tho Sierra
Nevada, Suafell in Iceland and in tho
Isle of Man, tho Snceuw Bergen at tho
Capo of Good Hope, tho Snecliatten in
Norway, aud the Weisshorn, the Weiss*
miss and the Tote Blanche in Switzer¬
land, White Mountains iu New Hamp¬
shire^ well as the mere archaic or more
obscure names of Lebanon, of Caucasus
and of the Himalayas, aro appellations
descriptive, in various languages, of the
characteristic snowy covering of their
lofty summits. — RJu b A h Sun day Herald.
A IVonderfiil Weapon.
The Russian army is being provided
with a new rifle of immense range and
penetrative power. Tests show that at
a range of 6000 feet bullets from this
rifle pass through inch boards placed
ten feet apart. The weapon is a breech

her where men poseeasmg but an insignificant
amount of capital—two, thrie or fourhuntlrej
dollais—have, backed by our bargains, in the

way up to affluence, M. Foley, of Bed Jacket,
Mich., 18 months ago kept a small soda water
shop, his sole wealth--a billiard table—boiled
it down into cash, invested with us, and is now
worth $0000. D. 8. Lynn, of Huntington,

and independent; doing a business bringing
him in an annual inome of $4009, aud rapidly

men who have accomplished the same results.
One naturally asks what lias brought about tliia
great prosperity? The answer is, the fact of
their being ablo to undebbuy and undebsell
competition, no matter how wealthy it might
be, as by the natural law of dollars and the
chord of self-sntere st they are bound to get a
monopoly of the buaine s in any town where
they may locate.
