THE HALL QUA HOUSE.
_
An Attractive Feature of the Mod¬
ern Dwelling.
In the furnishing of a modern house
tho hall constitutes one of the most
serious problems, but there is one
consolation, If one solves it sucoess-
fully tho hall becomes one of the most
attractive features of tho ontiro house.
It then censes to bo a mere paRsago-
way, and becomes a veritable room,
aud ono which, strangely enough, will
be more generally used than almost
any other in the house. In the con¬
ventional oity dwelling, when the hall
is long, narrow aud dark, with a high

ceiling and a flight of stairs that
makes an nnbrokon sweep to the floor
above, very little can be done to give
a true artistic eflect. If tho front door
is of solid paneled wood a great im¬
provement will result from replacing
the upper panels with glass. This can
take tho form of a sash of small leaded
pones in fanciful design, or a single
sheet of plate glass, protected by a
neat iron grill. The mistake should
never be made of using colored glass
unless one can afford a masterpiece of
genuine stained glass, for the ordinary
so-called “cathedral” glass is crude in
colors, and an abomination. The
hall stand or hat rack, which is of¬
ten found just within the front
door, should be banished to some rear
corner, if it is to be tolerated at all,
where it will not bo so much in evi¬
dence. Theso racks become “catch¬
alls,” and old coats, hats, umbrellas
and canes are not at all ornamental.
In place of these conveniences a broad
hail chair, of formal design, or better
still a mahogany settee, will serve
every purpose. These shonld be re¬
served for the use of casual callers. If
there are no convenient closets that
can he made for the garments of the
members of the household, a neat
clothes tree such as are imitated from
the antique, will prove a great deal
more sightly than the hall racks that
are made nowadays. It takes up but
little room and can find a place in
some rear corner.
His® I
HALL ASD STAIRCASE.
Under the best of conditions the hall
will be none too light, and this fact
should be borne in mind in choosing
wall paper and carpet. The furnish¬
ings should be in light warm tones,
"and only the most formal designs are
permissible. Few people seem to
realize the effectiveness of pictures in
the hall. It is customary to hang one
or two large frames on the side walls,
and allow the long stretch above the
stairs to go uncovered. In the latter
place pictures are needed,-if anywhere
in the house, for there is no other way
in which the vast wall sjiace can bo
broken.
All of this has reference to the fit¬
ting and furnishing of the ordinary
city hall.
In the villa house the architect gen¬
erally plans a square hail that has all
the effeots of an ordinary room. There
may be windows on the side, an open
fireplace, and plenty of contrivances
that lend themselves to decorative
effect. Here the treatment should be
the same as in any other room, with
this restriction. The purpose of the
hall must never be forgotten. Easy
chairs and sofas will not be out of
' place if they do not detract from the
formal character, or do not obstruct
free passage. There should never be
a profusion of ornaments or bric-a-
brac. In a general way the hints as to
the city hall apply equally well to one
in the suburbs. A hall chair, or settee
should bo placed in close proximity to
the ontrauce door, and the fittings of
the walls and ceilings should be in the
light, worm tones.

A Strong Snake Story.
The latest snake story comes from
South Africa. It is recordod in the
Transvaal, published in Cape Town,
as cold fact, that in Sekukiniland a
native ran across a boa constrictor
measuring about forty-seven feet,
which had just swallowed a young
koodoo buck, all except the horns.
The horns stuck out on each side of
the reptile’s mouth. The native rec¬
ognized the horns as those ot a buck
he owned, and he ran and got sticks
and pinned the serpent, which was
dormant, to the ground. Then he got
hold of the horns and pulled and
twisted. He got the buck out inch by
inoh, until half its body showed, and
then it came with a jerk, and the boy
fell over on his back. Before he had
time to think twice the snake, re¬
lieved of his load of mutton, was upon
him, and it seized his head in its
mouth and in three minutes the na¬
tive had taken the place of the buck,
only he was all inside; there was
nothing loft out to pull on, even if a
rescuer had come along. Having
swallowed the boy the boa deliberately
swung its head around and grabbing
its tail swallowed eight feet of it, then
closing the mouth and throat down
which the native had disappeared, and
making escape almost impossible.
The Transvaal vouches for the truth
of the story.—London Times.
UNCLE SAM’S 0It 1 (JINAC ATTIRE.
Somewhat Different From the Mod¬
ern Figure.
The original Uncle Sara of song and
cartoon was so different from the
modern figure, with its long striped
pantaloons, that our read ers will be
interested to see the costume as some
of the students of history say it should
be. In the first place, say these
authorities, he should wear a high hat,
slightly bell crowned aud of felted
fur. His shirt should be portrayed
with a frilled bosom projecting out,
pouter fashion, and generally with a
breastpin in it. His shirt collar should
be high and connected with his shirt.

His cravat should be wide and tied
with a “pudding,” as it was termed in
former times. The waistcoat should
be a buff, single breasted affair, with
gold or gilt bnttons. The swallow-
tailed coat should be made with high
rolling collar and high pointed lapels.
The greatest difference between
Uncle Sam as be is and as he should be
lies in the pantaloons. They should
be made with a “trap door” in front
and fitted below the knee for the wear¬
ing of the boots outside. These boots
should have tassels in front. Colored
shirts were unknown until about 1829.
Striped pantaloons are of a compara¬
tively late date, and straps under the
boots were not known until 1825.
They were a part of the pantaloons
and were fastened on the boot in front
and buttoned under it. Goatees were
not worn until late in the 30V.
The accompanying picture shows
the correct Uncle Sam of a century
ago, but times change and our good
uncle with them.

OATS FOR TREE ROOTS.
In planting trees put in one peck of
oats at the roots before filling in the
dirt. They will draw moisture for the
roots until the tree has started to
grow.
EXTRA FEEDING TWIN LAMBS.
Not long ago a farmer remarked that
he did not see much advantage in hav¬
ing ewes that bred twins. The extra
lamb, he remarked, took part of the
food needed for one alter the second
week, and caused both to be second
class, and perhaps not worth more
than one in prime condition, No
doubt this estimate was correct so far
as his experience went, but it simply
showed that tho farmer was not alive
to the opportunities which twin lambs
gave him. All lambs should be fed
something besides their mother’s milk
after they are two weeks old. In the
case of twin lambs this is especially
necessary. At first the feed should be
of the simplest character and not of a'
kind to tempt tho appetite. A small
wisp of clover hay, all the better if of
second-growth clover, is enough to
begin with. When this is eaten greed¬
ily, as it probably will be, and after a
few days a gill of whole oats per day,
given half at morning and half at
night. To this may be added after
awhile a teaspoonful and ultimately a
tablespoonful of oil meal per day.
When this is eaten without injury add
to the clover hay ration all the lamb
will eat clean. In this way, with the
addition of its mother’s milk, two
lambs from a ewe can be grown with
better results than one lamb can which
depends only on its mother’s milk and
what hay it can pick up while running
with its dam. What is more, twin
lambs thus reared will make thrifty
sheep, aud will be good feeders ali
their lives because at no time has their
digestion been injured by being
starved or stinted in their food.
MILKING.
If money is to be made from cows it
is essential that they be milked at reg¬
ular hours morning or evening, says
the Patron’s Bulletin, and the nearer
the time is divided equally the better
it is.
It is also advisable to milk them in
Ihe same order every time ; it prevents
them from fretting. Personally I have
found no satisfactory result unless I
managed to make friends with the
cow, or, if you please, induced her to
look upon me as an “adopted calf !”
While pure lood and water are essen¬
tial to the production of perfect milk,
it has been proven that many of the
taints which we thought were intro¬
duced in the milk while it is elaborated
in the cow are due to direct contami¬
nation from the dust of dried urine
and excrements as well as of the fod¬
der itself in the stable. When the cow
converts the food into blood and then
into milk, most, if not all, of the im¬
purities are separated in that wonderful
filter—the kidneys—and the germs are
found not in the milk but in the urine
and excrements. A healthy cow fed
clean and healthy fodder and water
will always produce perfect milk. We
have been fooled, as, for instance, by
the fact that milk from cows fed on
turnips had a turnipy flavor, but care¬
ful experiments have shown that this
flavor was produced by a bacterium
found on the turnips and in the excre¬
ments and introduced in the milk di¬
rectly by dust falling into it while
milking in a stable where turnips were
fed while milking or shortly after, or
where the excrements had a chance to
dry and float as dust in the air>
These facts make it clear that we
should not feed the cows while milk¬
ing, aud shonld not clean the stable
just before milking, as the dust then
raised may drop in the milk. Nor
should we keep a stock of such fodder
in the stable.
Of course there are certain weeds,
such as leeks, rag weed, etc., which
will taint the milk as produced in the
cow, and too much of certain food will
afleot the milk in various ways. Thus
more than two pounds of linseed meal
per cow will make the butter soft, and
so will rape-seed and peanut meal,
while more than two or three pounds
of cotton-seed meal will make it hard
and like stearine.
CONSERVATION OF SOIL MOISTURE.
In the discussion of subsoiling, the
statement has often been made that
porous sandy land is injured more
than benefited by deep stirring, writes
Professor J. L. Rudd, Iowa. This is
undoubtedly true, but the best soils
for horticultural uses in the prairie
states are those with a large mixture
of clay, which pack readily under the
pressure of the plow and the tread of
the horses in the furrow. A well de¬
fined crust is formed at the bottom of
the furrow, which holds the water of
heavy rains, forming little rivulets
that not only carry off the moisture
but tons of the very finest and best
soil particles. Even the favored Loess
soils of Iowa soon show this crust un¬
der the plow.
A peculiarity of western climate is a
lessening of orchard and garden yield
by a shortage of earth moisture when
the crop is maturing. During the
pnst four years premature dropping
and ripening of apples was the result
of too little water in the lower levels
reached by the feeding roots. As
orchard fruits do best on high lands,
with more or less slope lor the drain¬
age. the loss from suriace draipage of
water is more apparent than on those
places nearly level. In a dozen places
ccming under the writer’s observa¬
tion, crops of fruit and grains have
grown during the past four years on
hilly slopes, part of the land being
subsoiled and part given common
plowing. Ou the subsoiled part not u
trace of water gullying could be found,
nor was any loss of fine earth particles
apparent. On this part the frnit was
larger, smoother, later in maturing
and not subject to premature drop¬
ping. In corn, oats and other crops,
the gain in quantity and quality was
equally apparent. In the common
plowing by its side, after every rapid
falling shower,little gullies were every¬
where seen, carrying off water which
the subsoil needed and also the richest
part of the soil. At harvest the les¬
sening in size and yield of fruit and
grain was easily apparent. In the
nursery during the same period, root
grafts of the apple, pear, cherry and
plum planted in deeply subsoiled
trenches grew into healthy trees, with
moisture ever present under the dust
mulch of cultivation. On the other
hand, root grafts planted with the
dibble or common plowing showed a
poor stand, slow growth and more
than tho usual amount of leaf curl and
blight. This trenching under the
rows seems in practice to give quite as
favorable results as breaking the crust
over the entire surface.
In preparing for orchard planting,
harrow the field smoothly, run the
lifter or snbsoiler where the row is to
be set and to a distance of four feet
on each side. This gives a mellow
bed to the depth of usual planting,
into which the water from rains will
flow to wet the subsoil and by seepage
the whole orchard surface. Even on
relatively flat land, where it is re¬
garded best to ridge up the rows for
surface drainage, subsoiling in the
lines of the rows is far better than to
dig hills into the compact earth. In
fields subsoiling for strawberry plant¬
ing or for any small fruits, it is best
to harrow smoothly and then run the
subsoiler from the surface down at
least fourteen inohes under the row
and at intervals of eighteen inches
apart over the whole surface.
PLANT YOUR TREES IN AUTUMN.
All fruit trees, except the peach and
all the small fruits except the black¬
cap raspberry are best planted in the
autumn, and the earlier after the
leaves fall, the better. The advan¬
tages of fall planting may be summed
1. Nurserymen have fuller and bet¬
ter stocks of trees in the autumn
when the sales begin. The best
sold first, and later orders are filled
with the material which remains on
hand. Sometimes it is impossible to
have an order for certain varieties
filled in the spring, all of that stock
being sold. There is frequently ob¬
served a marked superiority in stock
received in the fail.
2. If trees are properly planted in
the early autumn almost every one is
sure to live and thrive the next sea¬
son. while of those planted in the
spring a considerable per cent, will
die the first year. The explanation is
that during the warm days of autumn
the trees become established in their
new locations. Having no leaves they
do not nted moisture as they do in the
spring. The earth becomes com¬
pacted about the roots, which form
cailusses over the cut and torn ends,
and oven begin to emit small rootlets
before the winter sets in, so that on
the earliest warm days of spring the
young orchard is ready to start off to
make a full growth..
3. Another reason for fall planting
is that the nurserymen then have more
time to dig aud pack the trees, and
there is less liability of errors, which
are very provoking when discovered
after the lapse of eight or ten years
when the tree begins to fruit. The
planter,too, has more time to properly
do the work of planting, so that all
orchards planted in the autumn have
a better chauce of succeeding.
strictly first-class trees and vines
should always be purchased, Other
qualities may live, but they will gener¬
ally come to bearing so far behind
first-class stock that more will be lost
than is gained. To illustrate this:
Some years ago the writer purchased
a thousand third-class currant bashes.
They nearly all grew, but failed to
fruit the second and third years with
any degree of profit, so that the loss
was considerable, i o with pear and
apple trees of the second-class more
will die and the remainder will be
lugger in coming into bearing.
Nurservmen often advocate the
planting of very young trees, This
will do if the trees are to have garden
culture, but where trees are to be
planted in an orchard and will receive
only ordinary care the larger tree,
threebor four years old, will stand
much the better chauce of living and
early fruiting. Always order straight,
thrifty, clean and healthy stock from
the nursery, and insist that it be
guaranteed free from all insect and
fungus diseases.
After the trees are planted pull the
earth up around each one to support
it against the winter winds. In ex¬
ceptionally windy places it may be
advisable to stake each tree, but
orchards should not be planted in such
locations, for the fruit will stand but
littlo chance of remaining upon the
trees to maturity.—New York Trib

The red clover, when introduced in¬

Bees were introduced, and the clover
seeded in profusion consequently.
Exactly the same was the case with the
apple.
The Way to Sleep.
Where practicable the bed should
be placed on a lino north and south,
with the head toward the north. This
arrangement places the sleeper in
harmony with the electrical currents
caused by the rotation of the earth on
its axis. Often a person in sickness
and sometimes in health can obtain
much needed rest in no other
Bedrooms should, where possible, have
a southern exposure, that is, have the
windows on the south or the sunniest
side of the house. The head to- the
north will keep the lungs aud respira¬
tory organs away from any possible
draughts, and the room will also ob¬
tain that indispensible requisite to
health—plenty of sunlight through tho
day. In many cases it will be impos¬
sible to obtain these conditions in
houses where there is very little sun¬
light that can enter the bedrooms,.and
where windows and doorways make it
impossible to place the head of the
bed toward the north, but where there
is a choice of rooms those that offer
these conditions for comfort and
health should be chosen for the bed¬
rooms in common use.
Better sleep can be obtained with a
low than with a high pillow. To lessen
the work of the arteries that propel
the blood to every portion of the
organism should be the aim of every
one, so that the posture that most
nearly places the body in a horizontal
position is the most to be desired.
Bolstering up the head is always to be
condemned, whether in sickness or in
health, unless bodily injuries render
the perfectly recumbent position im¬
possible.
It is not well to lie always on the
back ; by this practice the spine and
the nerves that there congregate are
kept too hot, and a feverish sleep is
apt to be the result. The right side
is the best to recline on, for then the
heart and the larger arteries are re¬
lieved from undue pressure. Occasion¬
ally one rests well lying on the
stomach. As a general rule eight
hours is ample for a person in health ;
more produces a dull, heavy feeling
on arising; less, an unsatisfied craving
for more. And there is also no room
for doubt that the two hours im¬
mediately preceding the midnight
hour are the most favorable for enjoy¬
ing the “beauty sleep” of the night.
