FARM AND GARDEN. Good Feed for Breeding Ewes. The prejudice against too high feed ing of breeding animais of any kind is in this country chiefly due to the fa t that we feed so largely on corn. That is not good food for cows, which if at al! well bred are naturally disposed to lay on fat. But it is no reason why other breed ing stock should not be reasonably well fed so as at least to be in good order when their young are born. We are very glad to see that J. 8. Woodward, Secretary of the New York Agricultural Society, recommends high feeding for breeding ewes. He does not feed largely on corn, but gives enough grain to veep the ewes in high condition. A sheep does not naturally take to fat as a hog does, and only by having the ewes in good order can their lambs be brought to the right condition for early marketing. Cultivator. • Swamp Hay For Heaves. A Masachusetts correspondent of Farm Life repoits an experience with a horse seventeen years old in 1830 and atilicted with heaves, which has nevertheless done hard work every season since as the result of the course of feeding described as follows: “Having learned that swamp hay or hog grass, on account of not being so dusty, was better for a lieavey horse than upland hay, 1 determined to feed him swamp hay with grain enough to make the quality e jiial to that of upland hay. .... He is apparently a better horse to day than when I bought him eight years ago. His food has been dry meal or ‘feed,’ (corn and oats ground together) and swamp hay all the time, except in in the winter of 188(1, for a while when having plenty ot good hay for my sheep and not quite so much swamp hay as I wanted for mulching my fruit, 1 gave him upland hay. Soon the horse began to cough and exhibit other symptoms of heaves, and although I tried many re medies he got no relief so long as he was fed the upland hay. Last fall I again put him on the swamp hay ration. I give him all he wants to eat of it with ground corn and oats enough to keep him in good condition. I have not heaid him cougli for several months and he now shows no sign of heaves. Whether it is the swamp hay itself, or some herb contained in it, such as boneset or thoroughwort, that benefits him, 1 do not know; but that he has been greatly helped either by the swamp hay or the swamp weeds, I am positive.” How to Treat and Feed Calves. A New York farmer says in the World: “Let the calf run with the cow till the milk is fit to use. A new born calf is j weak like a baby; its stomach is not j strong enough to digest a quart or two j of milk that is drunk quickly or poured down its throat only twice a day, and it is cruel to compel it to do so. It needs to suck a little at a time and often. Be- j sides it learns to drink much easier after it has grown strong by running with its | mother two or three days. By all means j use a calf feeder, which makes a calf j suck the milk in a natural manner. Try this once and your calves will do so much better that you will never laise another without the feeder. After it learns to I suck the feeder which will not be long, I it can be taught to first drink a part of : its mess and then suck the rest, and so weaned from the feeder gradually. I Finally, don’t be so cruel as to feed a calf only twice a day for the first few weeks. “In teaching a calf to drink it is gen erally necessary to let it suck your linger while holding its mouth in the milk. Strange to say, there are even now farm ers that don’t know this, but will let the poor thing go hungry till it will either drink or has to be killed. “An excellent calf-feeder is made by boring a one half-inch hole through the side of a wooden pail just above the bot tom and directly under one of the ears. Then take a piece of nursing bottle ; tubing three or four inches long (a short j piece can be got of any druggist) and a i strip of heavy sheeting about five inches wide and a foot or two long, with a wide hem or fold on one edge, and roll up the tube snugly in the cloth till it makes a roll large enough to fit rather tightly in the hole in the pail, but not tightly enough to press the rubber tube together and close it. The folded edge of the cloth makes one end of the roll larger than the other. Now draw this Toll through the hole from the inside of the pail, fasten the inner and larger end with a few tacks, hem down the loose edge of the cloth, and it is done. The milk runs slowly through the tube, and the calf learns to suck the thing at once.” The Careol Poultry. Don’t be tempted to keep too many fowls together. Small flocks carefully tended will give much better results. Have your hen house so constructed that the fowls may have the benefit of all the sunlight possible. The roosts should be low, especially for all heavy fowls, and in the warmest part of the house. There should be ample menus of ventilation without the possibility of a draft at night, or you may look for a swelled head and its at tendant miseries in the morning. If yon have a rooster that seems especially attentive to a certain la n, watch him. I have seen such a one stand by the nest while she was laying her egg, and directly she left the nest he would break the egg and call all the rest of the hens to share in the feast. Thus hens are taught to eat eggs. Moisture and ventilation in artificial hatching are two great stumbling blocks in poultry keeping. Every man who invents an iucubator has his theory on these points. After various experiments I am satisfied that more chicks are killed by too much, than too little moisture. I recently hatched 150 healthy chickens from 188 fertile eggs, and in a hot-water incubator, without one drop of moisture until after the tenth "flay, it then being supplied by three small cups containing sponges, which were saturated with quite hot water, say 110 degrees at each time of turning the eggs, night and morn’rg. The only ventilation in the machine was supplied by means of an inch and a quarter pipe directly in the front. This was kept tightly plugged until after the tenth day. and yet we have a brood of chickens worth going a long way tn see. Of course if one is operating a self regulating lamp machine, moisture is necessary from the start, because the opening and closing of the ventilator naturally cau>es a dryness in the machine, hut how to supply just the right amount is a “poser.” Management of a Garden. | The culture of a garden should be the ! that is poss.ble. No labor or fer tilizers should be spared to make the product as large as it can be made. With liberal manuring and frequent weeding the land in time will be brought into a high condition of productiveness, and be so free from weeds that the labor of weeding n ill- he reduced to the smallest minimum. It is scarcely possible to have land free from weeds; seeds of the com mon weeds seem to be everlasting, and are so numerous that the plants still con tinue to appear after many years of most persistent destruction. A single p ant of purslane produces more than 2,000,- 000 seeds, and the seeds of this trouble some weed are practically indestructible. Soil taken from two feet below the level of ground ever p'owed, in trenching for a bed of asparagus, has produced a most abundant crop of this plant, along with wild mustard, cinque foil, rag weed, and several other weeds common everywhere. Probably the seeds had been buried there for scores of years, where they had gradually sunk through the soil, during its frequent expansions and contractions, by reason of alternate wet and dry periods. So that while persistent culture and weeding wiil greatly lessen the weeds and the work of destroying them in the course of eight or ten years, there will still be some' to afford an excuse for working the soil. But this work should he undertaken systematically. It should not be left until the growing weeds make it neces sary. A loose, mellow surface and sub soil through which the air can pass and circulate is indispensable for garden cul ture, in which every favorable condition for quick and luxuriant growth should be provided. Weeds, liewever, cannot be permitted, or should not be, however rich the soil; they take up a large share of the plant food, which is not their worst feature, for they abstract a large quantity of moisture from the soil, and the growth of a crop is always in ratio with the supply of moisture up to the point when it becomes excessive. The plant food supplied to a garden is most useful when it is in a thoroughly soluble condition There are some greedy feeders—so supposed—which make a luxuriant growth upon raw manure. These are, however, the succulent vege tables, such as rhubarb, which will thrive in manure with very little soil about it. Any other plants will do the same. They are all hungry and greedy for food But it is difficult to supply all a’ike, and so those which are called gross feeders are furnished with abundance, and the rest go with half rations. No doubt some plants will find food where others starve, and have the habits of some animals in this respect, finding nutriment in matter which affords none to others, just as a cow in a pasture crops the tender herbage, a sheep consumes the coarse weeds, and a hog digs up and devours the roots, while the butterflies and bees take only the nectar. Plants differ in the same way, and a compost of swamp muck, spent hops, leaves, stable manure, and other coarse vegetable matter, only half decayed, will serve the eager appetite of some, while Peruvian guano, flour of bone, superphosphate of lime, nitrate of soda, and other more soluble food but especially the so-called complete or special manures having precisely the composition of the crop they are intended to supply, are the most elective with others. The flavor of fruits and vegetables depends in a great measure upon the food supplied to them. A strawberry, an onion, a radish, or a potato is much likea fowl or a pig or the milk and cream of a cow in this respect. A pig fed upon barleymeal or potatoes, with sweet milk, makes a delicious pork, very different, from that of one fed in a manure cellar or on filthy garbage; a fowl is much like a pig, and the eggs or flesh of a hen which feeds upon manure heaps has a strong and disagreeable odor and taste; every one knows how milk acquires the odor of garlic, onions, and turnips upon which the cow feeds. So with vegetables and plants. We have had far more delicately flavored strawberries grown with Peru vian guano and old manure from a hot bed which had lost all its odor; from as paragus, peas, rhubarb, and cabbage fed with fine bone flour and wood ashes, or the common artificial manure prepared for potatoes as a special fertilizer, and potatoes thus fed have been incompar ably finer in every way, freer from diseases, and of higher flavor when thus grown, or when grown with completely decayed compost and leaf mould, and when fed with rank stable manure. In like manner, frequent cultivation of the surface down to the roots but not among or below them, is requisite for the finest developments of the garden crops. Onions, radishes, cabbage, let tuce, are especially improved by this frequent culture, and strawberries and the other small fruits yield much more and finer fruit. The effects of frequent cultivation upon a plantation of Kitta tinny blackberries in our garden were shown in a remarkable manner a few years ago when some rows of the plants were struck with rust. This variety is quite subject to this disease, but when a portion of the rows was kept quite cleat of weeds and the soil made mellow by working with a handwheel cultivator two or three times a week, and was fertilized with potash salts, lime, and bonedust, the rust did cot reappear after all affected canes had been cutout. The growth became remarkably vigorous and the fruit much finer than usual and of greatly improved flavor. The rest of the plants were overpowered with the parasite, which weakened and stunted them and rendered them fruitless.— New York Times. He Took Them All. Congressman Herbert, of Alabama, had an amusing experience recenty. His youngest daughter, who is at a Washing ton boarding-school, was entertaining two young lady friends from her home. One day the Congressman called, and sent up word that he had come to take his daughter and “the young ladies from Alabama” to the matinee. Pretty soon Miss Herbert and a dozen bright girls, all from Alabama, came rushing down stairs, exclaiming: “Oh, how perfectly lovely of you, Mr. Herbert, to take us all.” The Congressman made the best of the situation, and paid the bill grace fully.—Argonaut. HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS. Science in the Household. There is heat enough wasted around an ordinary kitchen range—to say nothing of the furnace —to furnish all the power needed to run the sewing machine, pfimp water for an elevator, and light the dwelling by electricity. The same waste of heat of the cooking apparatus might be made to cool the house in summer and to dispense with the ice hill. When nitrate of ammonia, for example, is dis solved in water it absorbs an enormous amount ol heat jj-iul -the principle is readily applied in the construction of re frigerating chambers. Properly e'nbo raated and located these could be so ar ranged as to keep meats, etc., better than the ordinary ice box, to cool water i’oi drinking more wholesomely than tiie average ice supply, and to send volumes ot cold air down through shafts to r >gu latorsin the ceilings of rooms so that the heat of summer might be tempered as certainly as the cold of w inter. The same supply of the ammonia salt may be used repeatedly by evaporating the wat r, for which purpose the waste heat above spoken of could be utilized. The p ssi bililies of applied science in the house hold have not been even nibbled at. —• Chicago News. Tarts.

Tepid water with a little borax dis solved in it is good to wash colored table linen in. White and pale shades of tint may be beautifully cleaned by using whiting io the water. Cook oatmeal in a double boiler or in a covered pail set in a kettle of water. Be sure to salt it. To wash castor bottles, put them one third lull of rice, and fill up with water shake thoroughly. To clean red brick floors, rub them with a brick moistened with a little warm milk and water, and wipe dry with * soft cloth. To clean straw matting, boil thret quarts of bran in one gallon of water, and wash the matting with the water, drying it well. Peach leaves pounded to a pulp anr applied to a bruise, or a wound from a rusty nail, or a simple cut, will give im mediate relief. Don’t allow matches to be k’ept loose or in paper boxes, but only in metal ci earthern safes. Those lighting only on the box are safest. If the face seems constantly dry, rub ii with a trifle of olive oil every night for s time: if too oily, put a little borax ii the water used for bathing it. If you wish to keep a sharp knife don’' put in hot grease; stir your potatoes while frying, or turn meat with a fork ot an old case knife kept on purpose. To remove paint from windows, take strong bicarbonate of soda and dissolve it in hot water. Wash the glass, and in twenty minutes or hall an hour rub thor oughly with a dry cloth. The carving knife and large knives used in the kitchen, as well as cooks knives that are required to be very sharp, should never be used about the fire for stirring hot things. This will quickly dull them. Lemons will keep good for months bj simply putting them into a jug of but termilk, changing the buttermilk about every three weeks. When the lemons are required for use they should be well dried with a cloth. Soldiers’ Monument.
