UNIQUE HOARDERS.
Feeding and Lodging Domestic
Pets in Summer.
A Profitable Business at tho
National Capital.
“At this season of tho year I keep a
boarding house for pets,” said a fanci¬
er to a writor for tlio Star. “It is a
profitable business, because there are
% great many people in Washington
who want the birds nnd boasts they
mako companions of cared for through
the summer while they tiro away in
the country. So during tho heated
term this establishment .is a sort of
hotel for feathered nnil furry creatures,
whose names are entered on a register
used exclusively for that purpose,
Rooms aro provided for their accom-
modntion, always with board, nt so
much a week. These partitioned
apartments, with wire fronts, are con-
structed expressly for their occupancy,
A chambermaid—my boy a-sistant—
attends to thorn every morning, seeing
that they are clean and making up tlio
beds for such of tho boarders as do
not porch.”
“Wliatsortof animals do you accept
at boarders?”
“All sorts. I accom m oil ale canaries,
mooking birds, parrots, rabbits, guinea
pigs, squirrels, dogs, cals and moil-
keys. But there is no sort of boust or
bird that 1 am not willing to entertain
at schedule rates. Tho accommoda-
tions I offer arc first class, guests arc
given every attention, tho food is un¬
exceptionable, nil modern improve-

plied, and the prices I charge are cor-
responding!)- high. Twenty-five cents
a week I ask for a canary and 50 coins
a week for any largor bird, such ns a
mocking bird or parrot. The price for
squirrels is 50 cents n week and tlio
same for kittens, but full-grown cuts
must pay 75 cents aud smull dogs $1
each. Big dogs I ask more for in
proporiloii to tlieir size. They
are moro trouble to take euro
of than any other croaturcs,
because they have to be taken out
doors for exercise. Besides, they eat
moro, und that is nn item. Canaries
aro ray most numerous customers;
probabiy 1 shall lmvo 200 of them t«
took out for this summer, Twenty-
five cents eacli is not much to ask for
taking caro of them, because they liavo
to bo looked out for very sharply,and,
inasmuch ns the warm suason is their
moulting time, tlieir owners are very
apt to kick when they come back in
the fall and find them out of condition
and not in song. Sometimes they will
not rocognizo their own birds, ami
will thiuk that inferior ones are being
palmed off on them in exchange. With
fish it doesn’t inako any difference.”
“Do you board fish?”
“Certainly. Lots of poopio liavo
pet gold fish. They fetch them here
when they go away, but thoy don’t ex¬
pect to get the same onos when they
•oinc back. I put them into tho tanks
with the re6t of the 6tock and give a
eard in exchange tlint is good for so
many gold fish in the fall. This I do
for customers without any charge; it
ts very little trouble. Folks don’t get
fond of individual gold fish, you boo.
I do pretty much the samo with rab¬
bits and guinea pigs. Small boys
bring them to me to take caro of dur¬
ing the summer and 1 give them others
as nearly like as possible in the autumn.
They think they aro the same ones, hi *
causo one rabbit is pretty much like
another, and so it is also with guinea
pigs.”—[Washington Star.
The Original Use of Canes.
Somebody 1ms been lookiug up the
history of the original use of canes in
this country, aud finds that they were
formerly a part of tlie repertory of
the leaders of tho church, being at ono
time tlie principal badge of tlio dea¬
con. The deacon’s cane was about five
feet long, one eml being embellished
with a big knob, the oilier with feath¬
ers. When the small boy got too
noisy or rebelled against the powers
that were ho was given a rap on tlio
head with tlio uncharitable end of tbo
stick. If tiie head of tho family forgot
himself while listening to tlie morning
sermon and lapsed into a bli-sful
dream of old times in merry England,
the turkey plumes on tlie deacon’s
eauc feathered him into lifo again.—
[St. Louis Republic.
From a IVhaie’g Head.
A most curious clmir has a story
which runs liko this: In the year
1587, (lie old St. Nicholas Church, at
Great Yarmouth, England, was visited
by tho “rising sea,” and fully four
feet of water swept up over tho church
floor. Into this n piously inclined
whale flopped his way. He was killed
and the tia3c of his head was utilized,
and makes a yery comfortable chair,
which for centuries lias occupied a
place within the sacred cdifico.

Most of tlio flies that worry horses
and cattle, both in tlio stable and iu
G’O pasture, as well as those that
plague the human beings in the house,
writes a farmer, breed in tlio drop-
pings of the animals, mid may be kept

with air-slacked Jime and road dost,
or keeping it in a dark, underground
pit- The frequent u*o of disinfec-
tants, such as carbolic acid, or the loss
dangerous tliyino cresol, will also
keep flies from tho slnlls. Wetting
tho animals with an infusion of wal-
leaves lias been recommended ns a
preventive of (lie attacks of flies, but
of this 1 ennnot speak from experi-
cnco. Dry and cleanly stables that
arc kept darkened in summer are not
apt to lie infested with flics.— [St.

A DISEASE pF OATS.
A new disease lias recently attacked
tlio outs in this country, so that last
year the crop was largely a failure
everywhere oast of the Mississippi
river. In Pennsylvania nnd New
York it was almost a total loss, and
the production of this grain was less
than for many years, although the
* cmigc ^"‘ od WttS * reater than cver
before. A\ lien the plants wore from
four to six inches high their leaves
turned red and died; no head was
formed and no seed developed usually.
Tlius it happened that the market
price of oats at present is about twice
what it is ordinarily, which is very
hard upon the horses as well as
upon tlieir owners. Farmers in various
states liavo appealed to the Depart¬
ment of Agriculture for help, and an
investigation lias been made which
lias brought about the discovery that
the complaint in this case is caused
not by a fungus but by bacteria. Un¬
til quite lately it was not known that
bacteria ever attacked plants, but Pro¬
fessor Galloway has made some very
interesting cultures on gelatine of the
variety responsible iu this instance. In
fact the tissues of the oak leaves were
found to be actually swarming with
these minute organisms, which bored
into them and ate them up. Theory
in the matter was reduced to certainty
by experiment in tlio green house hos¬
pital.— [Washington S:ar.
KEROSENE EMULSION.
Next to the assenites, and often
fully equal to them as insect destroy¬
ers, is keroseno emulsion. It kills by
contact sucking insects as well as those
which bite and cat the leaves, twigs,
etc. In Bulletin No. 73 Professor A.
J. Cook, of tlio Michigan Station
gives (lie following formula for its
preparation, which is oue he hus re¬
commended and used for years: Dis¬
solve iu two quarts of water one quart
of soft soap or one-fourth pound of
hard soap by heating to the boiling
point, then add one pint of kerosene
oil and stir it violently. This is best
done by pumping tho liquid into itself
through a small nozzle, so that it shall
bo thoroughly ngitated. This, ho
claims, mixes tlio oil permanently so
that it will never separate, and
can ho diluted easily at
pleasuro by simply shaking
or slightly stirring after adding the
water to dilute it When ready to use
stir in enough water to mako 15 pints in
all—that is, one-fifteenth of (ho liquid
applied would bo kerosene oil.
Tlie IIubbard-Riley formula is as
follows: “Ono half-pound of soap
dissolved in one gallon of boiling
water, when two gallons of kerosene
are added and immediately stirred as
before. Then dilute with emulsion" nine parts
of watcr t0 one of the It
will thns be seen that Prof. Cook uses
I° ur times as macl i water as kerosene,
while Dr. Riley recommends twice as
much koroaeno a. water. The former
also uses more soap.
Yrot. Cook hope* that all station en¬
tomologists and horticulturists wifi
thoroughly try both these forinulro>
that farmors and fruit-growers may
ho wisely advised as to their respec¬
tive raorits.—[New York AVorld.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Whoever neglects his animals must
pay for it in loss.
In transplanting young treos, do not
let the roots get dry.
No tnixtnro of grasses is good for
all soils aud localities.
The unpaying cow is carrying hor
owner mortgageward.
Dou’t allow your horse to be chafed
by an ill-fitting collar.
Man makes the stable; nature pro¬
vides air and sunshine.
Smoking meat preserves it—also
makes it less digestible.
in transplanting, bo suro to keep tho
roots of the plant moist.
Nature deals in variations for the
purpose of improvement.
Breeding docs not produce excel¬
lence; it retains and fixes it.
Radishes must have a rich soil to
make them tender and brittle by rapid
growth.
Young strawberry plants should
have white roots. Throw away all
black ones.
The kitchen is the best place for
starling seeds. It is inoister and usu¬
ally warmer.
Bekins often roach tho weight of
fivo pounds each when ten weeks old,
if heavily fed and well cared for.
When you give the roosts a kerosene
bath, do not neglect the under-side, as
it is the best bed for lice. Onoe in
two weeks oil this bed.
One of the easiest and host ways of
curing a setting hen is to put her in a
box or cage with nothing to set on or
amuse herself with but boards.
Tho greatest mistake made is iu
feeding tho hens too much, instead of
compelling them to scratch and exor¬
cise, thus promoting their health.
if the poultry aro to bo fed econ¬
omically during tiro winter, care must
be tukon during the summer to secure
and store away a sufficient amount of
feed for them.
Rats are very found of young ducks,
and often do considerable damage
among them; good care must he taken
to sec that they are properly protected,
especially at night. •
Spa.de up tho yards; it not only
turns under the filth, but affords dust¬
ing places for the liens, and induces
them to scratch and work in the frosh
earth.
It will be less trouble to keep tho
fowl roosts clear of lice to have two
sets of roosting poles and change them
every few days, leaving one set out of
doors while the others arc in use.
In breeding to improve the poultry
on the farm it'is a mistake to sell ofl
the early hatched and depend upon tho
late for fowls to keep; select out tho
best before selling any.
If your fowls are heavy birds make
the roosts not over a foot from the
ground, and have them all on the same
level, and you will notice few casosof
leg ailment in your flock.
If you are not intending to allow
any more hens to set, sell off the males;
they are useless, simply consume feed,
and you will get as much for them
now as at any time of the year.
If all the loose bones, old boots, etc.,
around the place were picked up aud
burned, putting the ashes, after being
pulverized, around the small fruits,
it would bo greatly to their advantage*
If you would keep the fowls healthy,
even in the busy season, see that tho
droppings do not accumulate iu the
poultry house or yard. After clean¬
ing out sprinklo with lime or carboiie
acid.
In raising ducks for market, it is
advisable to sell thorn as soon as they
aro ready. Ducks grow fast and
should be soid soon; the longer they
are fed the greater tho oxponso aud
the less the profit.
Tradition of Scotland’s Thistle.
With regard to tho circumstances
under which tho thistle was adopted
as tho emblem of tho Scottish nation,
“Yo Curious Man” has unearthed the
following tradition: Queen Scotia had
load her troops in a well fought battle,
and when tho day was won retired
to tho rear to rest from her toils. Sho
threw herself upon tho ground wboro,
as ill luck would have it, a bristly
thistle grew. Whether the fair ama¬
zon fought in the national costume of
Scotland or not the tradition fails to
say, but at any rate tho spines of tho
offending plant were sufficiently pow¬
erful to penetrate tho skin in a very
painful manner. A proverbial pbiios.
plior lias said that “he that sitteth
upon nettles riseth quickly,” and tho
same remark holds good with thistles.
Queen Scoiia sprang to hor feet and
tore tho thistle out by tlio roots. She
was about to cast it aside, when it
struck her that the prickly herb would
henceforth be ever associated in her
mind with the glorious victory which
she had just gained. Her intention
was changed. She placed the thistle
iu her casque, and it became the badge
of her dynasty.—[St. Louis Republic.

“Blizzard.”
Blizzard is English, after all. Ec-
cent storms in England have stirred
up its use there, and a corrcspodent
gives this information: “The word
‘blizzard’ is well known through the
Midlands, and its cognates arc fairly
numerous. I havo known the word
a nd its kin fully 80 years. Country
folk used the word to denote blazing,
blasting, Winding, dazzling or stifiiug.
One who has had to face a severe
storm of snow, hail, rain, dust or
wind, would say on reaching shelter
that he has ‘faced a blizzer,’ or that
the storm was ‘a regular blizzard.’
A blinding flash of lightning would
call forth the exclamation, ‘My! that
wor a blizzomer!’ or ‘That wor a
blizzor!’ ‘Put towtbry sticks on
th’ fire, an’ let’s have a blizzer’—a
blaze. ‘A good blizzom’—a good
blazo. ‘That treo is blizzared’—blast¬
ed, withered. As an oath the word is
often used, and ‘May I be blizzerod’
will readily be understood.”

pound to you a conundrum in mental

his friend.

how much would remain?”
“Ten dollars,” was the prompt re¬
