to judge of tlie quality and feeding value of the foods at his command. It is said that vegetables put into a barrel or box and covered •wilh earth, keep fresh, crisp and nice. It makes all the difference in the world whether the man runs the farm, or the farm runs the man. The season of Florida’s staple fruit crop is nearly at an end and it has bee a very good one for the growers. The orange shipments from Florida last season were about 1,- 900,000 boxes. This season they will probably approximate 2,500,- Don’t-ventilate the poultry house through cracks jn the walls and floors,'and through holes in the roof.

It must be bred up. Forest leaves -are not as good absorbents as straw, but they add very much to the value of‘the ma nure pile. There is no use in beeping a hog up fattening after it is as fat as it can be. It is a waste of food and time. Don’t cram fifty cents worth of drugs down the throat of a sick cnicken that wouldn’t be worth over a quarter if it was well. If you cannot give your cows the best shelter, give them the best you can. Show your good will. They will appreciate it. While there is money in co-op erative dairying, there is not much as many have been -led the boomers to suppose. If you cannot buy a good male to breed up your stock, hire the service of one. It will pay in the first calf that is dropped. —There is no dispnting the fact that corn gives the most profitable returns when converted into densed animal products. Why should not a working ani mal have a working sire and dam? What use is there in" beeping breeding animals in idleness the year round? When horses bolt their food : chaff and hay or clover cut fine, and a handful or so mixed with the oafs, will cause them to give their food better mastication A variety of food is always rel ished by animals as well as by man, and is beneficial as affording all the necessary nutritive elements to nourish the system. Butter will not grain finely “coming'’ if the fat globules have been previously injured by over heating of cream, or too much vio lence in displaped in churning. In feeding calves skim milk, don’t forget to make up for the butter taken out in the shape of cream; some supplementary feed should be given with the skim milk. Linseed oil cake, cotton seed meal,- bran oats and peas are all good. To beep the trunks of apple trees smooth an d clean,; use a wash made by slaking one-half bushel of lime with hot water, and adding one gallon of soap and two pounds of crude carbolic acid. If applied as often as the acid loses its odor, it will also keep off rabbits and other vermin. Fashion Notes. Hussar blue will be the leading shade for cloth walking suits, At home natural flowers are worn on the too of dark slippers. Egg-plant purple'is a shade that ladies of serious taste incline to. For the second period of mourn ing a jacket of Astrachan fur well liked. Some long cloaks for children are made in soft surah, lined with thin silk. ■The latest fad is a finger-ring of blackened steel with with a small brilliant stone buried in it. Sailor suits for boys are made not only in surge or drill, but in silk with wool or in velvet and silk. Now that tartan is revived, tar tan silk handkerchiefs are fash ionable for tucking into gown bodices. An effective jacket to be worn with a plain black silk skirt is of striped blue and flame-colored vel vet.

The business of the Florida Fruit Exchange and' the Orange Growers’ Union, the two organizations which handle most of the crop, has been largely increased this season. An effort was made to establish a “home auction market” in Jacksonville, but comparatively a small portion of the crop was disposed of by this agency. New York dealers com plain that the Florida growers de mand too high prices for their fruit, but such a statement is ri diculous in view of the fact that the entire crop is sold readily and the demand regulates the price. It is believed that there are not more than 150,000 boxes*of oranges re maining in .Florida and these will soon be disposed of. New groves are being planted every' year and the confidence of the growers in the orange business properly con- ducted was never so strong as it is now. His Faith Returned. “Look a-here,” he said, as ha ap proached Officer Button at the Third street depot, “have you any faith left in human nature?” “Very little sir,7 was the prompt reply. “You look on most people as dead-beats and sharpers?” “I do.” “Beat you if they can?” “They will. They’d steal my teeth if weren’t solid in the jaw.” “You have lent.some money once or twice, I presume?” \ “I have, sir.” . “And never got it back?” “Never.” “Well, I’ve got to.tackle you just the same,” continued the man “D’ye see that;womamwith the red bow?” ‘Yes.” “She’s my bride; married last week; came in on a bridal tour. We toured too long for the size of my wallet, and now I lack just 4 cents of ’enough To buy'ouf tickets home.” “Only 4 cents?” “That’s all. If any feller ,in Michigan can plan a bridal tour closer than that I’d like to meet him.” “So would I. Here’s a quarter, sir, and that will give you 21 cents for peanuts and apples on the train. Car is now ready, sir, and there’s the ticket office. Go home and be good and happy.”—Detroit Free Press. Mrs. F. A. Wood, of Kennebunk, Me., a lady who had been lame for several years, went to the barn loft to gather some eggs, and in. slid- ding down upon the hay, with her lame leg, hearing something crack, she felt she had.broken some bone- She called to her husband for help, and when he came and help ed her up she found she could walk better than before. The lig aments which had adhered to each other by non-use were broken apart, improving her lameness. France claims the honor of util izing the highest water power in the world.

Brown gave up his seat to a pretty young lady. She accepted it without so much as “Thank you.” Later a young man entered the car whom she knew, and just before leaving she called him to her and said: “You take this seat, for I am going to get off here.’ The man who had orignally occu pied it stood directly in front of her, and his face was a study. He didn’t say anything, but it was manifest that lie was - doing a good deal of thinking. Druggists, you should always have a good supply of Dr. B nil’s Worm Destroyers on hand. Moth ers want these candies for their children and won’t take any other. “There is music in everything which God has created, the trees sigh around us with a gentle har mony, the brooklet murmurs on ward to the sea, with a sweetl sigh ing cadence, the birds sing and all nature is harmonious, all ex cept one, and that is a frog, he croaks and has no. music in his soul ”—H. W. Grady. Doubtless the croakers’ who are to be found in every community will resent the comparison with a frog, but they generally accomplish about as much for cities as —Albany News and Advertiser. the sale of the lands in Mexico, thousand acres, and containing gold, silver and coal mines. He stated that he had agents at Hous ton who would start with two hun dred families of negroes for Chi- hauhau next month, where they would locate in two towns just laid oat and now being built.

He expects to take several thousand negroes. from the South to locate in Mexico, where the gov ernment has granted two million acres of land for that purpose. White Caps and mobs continue to commit outrages in Indiana and Ohio. These outrages being mere ly “domestic misdemeanors,” and not “political crimes,” they escape the attention of Ingalls and others, gtill, it is probable that the victims do dot draw much comfort from the difference in terms. .
