FOR FARM AN!) OARBEN.
BENEFITS FROM DRAINED LANDS.
Drained land can be worked earlier
In tho spring, and sooner nftcr a rain,
than land that is not drained. It can
bf planted earlier in the spring, and
as it gets warm sooner and more
evenly the seed will'sprout earlier and
with more certainty. It lengiliens the
season and more time and opportunity
for working tho crops. It makes tho
soil dryer in wot weather and wetter
In dry weather, and will make farm¬
ing profitable where all oilier means
.would full.—[Wisconsin Agriculturist.
TESTING SALT.
Tho following method of testing
salt to be used in the dairy is laid
down by salt manufacturers. It is n
simple test, can be tried by any one,
and will show the purity or compara¬
tive qualities of dairy salt. Take as
many common drinking glasses or
large'tcst tubes ns there are samples of
salt to examine, and fill each alike with
clear, pure water; then dissolve a tea-
spoonful of salt from cacli sample and
note the comparison from the instant
flic salt is added. Tho solution show¬
ing the least scum, sediment, foam,
milky color, or other impurities is the
best dairy salt. Flavor of the salt
may bo detected from this solution
after it lias stood from one to two
hours closely covered.
A good color in salt is, of course,
desirable, but the whitest or a glisten¬
ing salt often contains impurities ex¬
tremely detrimental to dairy products
which are hard to detect, hut some of
these may be traced in the solution
method. — [Farm, Field and S'.ock-
man.
RAISING ONIONS.
The typical soil for onions is a deep,
mellow loam resting on a dry and
rather porous subsoil, although by
drainage and high manuring soils less
favorable may be made available for
the crop. The ground should be well
prepared in the fall and again in the
spring to get it into the best possible
condition. Tho seed-bed should be
finely pulverized and free from stones,
No other crop demands higher mnnur-
ing, and well-rotted barnyard and hog¬
pen manure are the kinds generally
preferred. Onions are raised from
bottom sets grown by sowing the black
seeds the previous season so thickly
as to cause diminutive bulbs fit for
planting to raise commercial sixes the
next. They are also grown from top
onions, or onion buttons, as they are
sometimes called, and fiom potato
onions, winch, like potatoes, multiply
from being planted in the ground.
The latter, although highly esteemed
for their mild and pleasant flavor, are
not sufficiently productive as to be
profitable as some other varieties.
The bulk of the crop is raised from
the black seed. Onions are among
the first planted crops in tho spring.
People who once engage in onion rais-,
ing generally continue it, which indi-
eates that it is at least moderately pro¬
fitable. -r*[New York World.
HOW TO SUCCEED WITH SWINE. •
A subscriber has started a herd of
swine on a farm near Indianapolis,
Ind., and though beginning in a small
way he wishes^o make a successful
venture of (ho industry. Prevention
of disease is the only method by
which successful swine herds can be
insured. Fifty millions of dollars’
worth of swine have been lost in
single year. Iliero will occasionally
be epidemics which will destroy large
numbers of tho best managed herds.
Yet, there can be no doubt that good
®anitary conditions and judicious
management would do more to save
swine than all the remedies ever used.
Rear hogs iu the good old-
fashioned way. Give them
good big pastures,pure running water,
plenty of vegeteble food, and only fin¬
ish off with corn ineal late in the fall
such as are desired for pork, An ear
of corn daily to each pig will keep
them healthy and growing, Breed
only from mature sows. In this there
is more avlsdom than might at first
seem apparent. A six-or-eight-monlhs-
old sow cannot impart full vigor and
hardiness to pigs. Both parents should
be mature to insure perfect breeding.
Hogs must not be crowded, or kept
in mud or filth. No domestic animal
needs more exercise, and cleaner
and drier places to sleep.— [American
Agriculturist.
THE GERANIUM.
The popular 11 >wcr in many win¬
dows is the geranium. Tho secret of
its popularity doubtless lies in the
fact that it is so easily grown either
from seeds or slips, and endures with
patience a great deal of neglect. Many
florists advise waiting until August
to start slips for (Vinter bloom, but
whoever follows that advice will fail
of much success unless able to give
unusual attention to the forcing of the
plants. The better plan for most peo¬
ple is to prepare for next season as
early in the spring as possible. In
order to have many geraniums cheap,
ly for summer use,save all die cuttings
when the plants are pruned, ♦slips
started now can have the tops pinched
oat to make other slips later in the
season, and thus a large number may
be secured ready for planting out iu
May. The geranium is a hearty
feeder. The Lady Washington, which
blooms in May or .Tunc, should now
bo encouraged to make rapid growth,
as tho flowers appear on tho now
growth.
Tho florists lmvo tried for a long
time to produce a perfect whito gera¬
nium without a tingo of pink and have
at last succeeded in the “Queen of tho
Belgians.” linogon is a pretty, now,
salmon-colored variety, but tho differ¬
ent scarlet * geraniums still tho
are
great favorites. All tho geraniums do
well potted in rich soil, well mixed
with an abundance of leaf mold.
They should be watered in winter with
warm water, and thrive better if wntnr
is kept oil the stove. As soon as tho
blossoms ftido they should be picked
off and all dead leaves or decaying
ones should be taken off. Geraniums
which lmvo bloomed during the
winter will continue to bloom
if transplanted to tho garden
in the spring, but those which
have bloomed well during the summer
should not bo depended upon for win¬
ter bioom. The scented geraniums,
sucli as tho rose, nutmeg and apple
arc especially desirable as indoor
plants. Tfio foliugo of tho variety
known as the Dr. Livingston is finer
than the rose, but is not so fragrant

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
You cannot improve your herd at
once, but you may improve your mau-
ufaclure of butter.
While ducks like water, care should
always be taken to keep their quarters
dry to keep their health.
When the poultry arc confined in
close quarters a failure to provide
plenty of gravel will often causc
bowel troubles. *
While plenty of water to drink is an
important item with young poultry,
care must always be taken to keep
their bodies dry.
One important item in keeping
poultry is to convert cheap materials
or what would otherwise go to Lvaste
into something more valuable.
June is the best time to markot
young ducks; in breeding and feeding
this fact should ke kept in mind so as
to be sure to have them ready.
Don’t let the cows stand in mud.
They are better “shut up in the barn.”
Have lho windows and doors open un¬
less a cold wind will blow on them.
It is' only in exceptional cases that it
will be advisable to sot a hen more
than onco in succession, It is too
much of a strain upon her and weak¬
ens her too much.
Making a few piles of brush con¬
venient to the poultry runs is a good
way to afford protection from hawks,
as they will find slieltor under them
when danger threatens.
If your cows arc wintered on tho
sunny side of a barbed wire fence and
pick their, living at tho straw stacks
and in tho stalks, it is no wonder that
your good wife's butter brings no bet¬
tor prices. •
Feeding corn exclusively is liable to
give tho ducks the cramps; they will
thrive better with more bulky food,
Young ducks should bo kept out of
the water uutil they arc well
feathered.
Butter tests made with corn and cob
ground together indicate that cob meal
is worth as much as meal from corn
alone. Next we may hear that a little
sawdust added will improve the cob
meal ration.
March pulieU make winter layers
and for this reason it is rarely advis.
able to sell, except the surplus. If by
any means the eggs get grease or
oil on them it will close up the pores
of the shells and prevent their hutch-

He Talks to the Monkeys.
One of the keepers in the monkey
iiouse in tho Park has boon very much
attracted of lalo by the regular ap¬
pearance of a little, short, thick-sCt
man with iron-grav hair and long
whiskers who makes daily visits to the
monkey houso . and stands for hours
chattering to the bcasls, and he lms
coine to tho conclusion that the man is
a Darwinian, a philosophic linguist
who has discovered tho monkey lan¬
guage and who is making himself
fluent in it by conversing with them.
“One tiling is certain,” said tho
keeper, “the monkeys know him, for
they always come to the front of the
eago when he appears, and chirp and
chntier and smile as if ho were telling
them funny stories. It seems ridicu¬
lous, doesn’t it? But ho is the only
visitor who can get their attention.
Maybe he hypnotizes them.”
Tho noises lie makes are exactly
like their chattering and seem to bo
done with the lips closed and the teeth
tightly shut and his eyes seem to spar,
kle as die monkeys chatter back.
Sometimes when they answer him ho
almost bursts with laughter,and when
he leaves tho railing they all bid him
good-bye with much feeling.— [New
York Recorder.

In many parts of Europe it is con¬

Flowers on a Glacier.
Mr. John W. Kelly discovered on
the northeast coast of Alaska, empty¬
ing into the Arctic Ocean, just above
Cape Lisburne,. a new river, which
lias been named the Pitmegea River.
The river and its narrow valley are
very winding, and tho natives say they
can ascend it for a distance of forty
miles. This stream lias not previously
appeared upon the charts. Mr. Kelly as.
cetided tho river for a distance of twen¬
ty-five miles, where be found a large
glacier, emptying into the river. The
glacier faces southward and receives
the full beuofit of the sunlight during
^lic short polar summer. Gales have
deposited on tho glacier particles of
soil and seeds of plants to a depth of
from four inches to a foot. The snow¬
fall of winter soon vanishes before the
June sun.
Then vegetation on the glacier is
warmed into life, and in a remarkably
short time the brown crust of soil is
covered with a robe of green and with
bright flowers, such as buttercups,
dandelions, daffodils, and yellow
poppies. There are also somo hardy
grasses, whose roots penetrate tho
light covering of soil. A few arctic
willows arc also seen, but they grow
only a foot in length and trail along
the ground.

How a Spider Works.
When the common geometrical Rpider it
lms made up its mind to spin a web,
commences tain operations by inclosing a cer¬ To
area with the foundation lines.
these about radiating thirty lines are fixed, generally joining
in number, and all
in the Center of the snare. When the
radii are finished tho spinner proceeds to
wonve tho concentric lines, stretching
them from one radiating thread to an¬
other, and forming them of the silk
thickly studded with viscous drops.
however, Starting from the center if the threads web,
the first few concentric
are without this peculiarity, the reason
being that the spider likes to sometimes
sit in tho middle of its web, and natural¬
ly does uot care to bo incommoded with
the sticky matter which it prepare) for
tho special benefit of its prey.
When the snare is flubbed, a task
which often does not occupy more than
forty minutes in «(>ite of the complicated
nature of tho work, the spider weaves a
cell in some secluded spot close at hand,
conneciing by it with cial the center of the web
means of a sp. thread. This, by
its trembling, gives intimation of the
capturo of any insect in the web, and also
forms a pathway by which the snugly
ensconced spider is enabled to proceed

diseases of s kin or scalp, liver

depend.
The medicine is Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery.
The makers of it have
enough confidence in it to
sell it on trial.
That is—you can get it from
your druggist, and if it doesn’t
do what it’s claimed to do, you
can get of your money back,
every cent it.
That’s what its makers call
taking the risk of their words.
