FEEDING HORSES.
Professor _ , J. , W. Sanborn says: Tie
« tem P* t! ’ 1,mke lia ? the chief rat ‘ 0 ’ J of
horses imposes a severe tax upon them,
and the result is seen in their distended
stomachs and the spiritless and clumsy
horses of many farmers. All intelligent
students of the horse give little hav, and
feed grain more liberally than to the
ruminants, for the double reason that the
horses w ill make poorer use of the hay
than the steer or sheep and will he less
easy of motion. Good horse feeders give
but ten to twelve pounds of hay A a day
and feed once or twice daily. colt is
kept for his muscle; hence a fattening
diet is out of ^ until matured and set
to work. For the horse, bran mixed
with corn-meal will serve to assist diges
tion, while, incidentally, it will make
more valuable manure. One-half a pound
of linseed ftieal, where carrots or some
other roots or ensilage are not fed, will
tend to keep the bowels open and secre
tion good. For travelling horses there
seems to be but little doubt that oats are
the best although usually the most costly
food. Horsemen agree that for a road
horse oats have no substitute.
transportation companies using horses
make rather free use of corn. Most
them use some cats. I should desire
give one feed a day of them and the
of corn, with a little bran mixed with
on the score of economy. Atrial of feed
ing gram before and after watering
suited in an advance of importance to
practice of watering before feediug.
This matter I went over with some care,
and believe it invites a change of
tice on the part of those who feed
before watering horses. Grain mixed
with bay for -the horse was more
than when either was fed alone

HOW TO GET F.ID OF SORREL.
Sorrel is one of the worst of weeds,
when it is not rightly managed. To
rid of it some advise to manure the land;
to apply lime to kill the acid in the soil;
to drain the land; and so forth, ! but verv /
few Eeem t0 have ftnv certa ; 0 p dDacea f r
of sorrel and applied the same treatment
to it as was effective with the thistles.
Manure only makes it grow more luxuri¬
antly; it loves manure; acid in the soil is
not the cause of it, and as for lime, I
have often seen it growing about lime¬
kilns and at the very foot of heaps of
waste lime with the greatest freedom. It
grows most on the driest land so that
draining is no cure for it. But to turn
it uater deeply, put the land in corn and
use cultivator and hoe to kill the young
plants, and then sow the land at tlie last
working of the corn with rye and pea
vine clover, and the sorrel will bo got rid
of for four oj live years, when it will be¬
gin to appear again. Then a repetition
of the treatment will finish it. Sorrel
spreads from the roots worse than any
other weed; hence, the land should be
turned under at least seven or eight
inches. It is then smothered and the
roots die aud only the seed is left. A
field which is in clover was covered with
many patches of sorrel this spring. I
mowed the clover early in June when the
sorrel began to get red with blossom.
The stuff was gathered and burned. In
July, the second growth of clover was a
beautiful sight, a level carpet of brilliant
blossoms with the clover standing over
two feet high, and the mower was put to
work, leaving a surface upon which not
a sorrel plant can be seen. But “it is
not dead but sleepeth” only, and will
probably appear in the spring, when I
shall turn the clover under eight inches
deep and plant com and seed down
again in the fall. I expect that will
make an end of it .—American Agricul¬
turist.

CUCUMBER PICKLES.
Cover the bottom of a cask with salt;
gather every day or buy fresh from ths
market. Lay tnem in the cask three or
four inches deep, cover with salt and re¬
peat the adding of cucumbers until all
are in; pour over little water. Spread a
cloth over the top of the cask, then
cover with a board, weighed down. If
kept closely covered, these pickies will
keep sound and fresh for years. When
wanted for use, soak for tweuty-foUr
hours in cold water; put in a porcelain
lined kettle; to every gallon of vinegar
add half a teacup of mustard seed, half a
teacup each of celery seed, bruised gin¬
ger root and garlic, two small white
onions, chopped, n tablespoonful of
black pepper, a teaspoonful each of
ground cloves, mace, turmeric, two ta¬

PUREE OP ASPARAGUi. i
Use canned asparagus, reserving the
best stalks for the dish with cream sauce,
and make the basis of the soup and the
sauce at the same time. Lay the best
stalks upon a steamer frame ready to heat
by steaming and serve with the sauce, and
put all the remainder through a sieve or
colander, making a pulp, about a cupful
of which will make a qnart of 60 up ot
puree. Put over the fire in a thick sauce,
pan for each quart of soup and each pint
of sauce a tablespoonful each of butter
and of flour and stir them together until
they are quite smooth; then gradually
stir in enough hot milk aud water to make
a creamy sauce; take up a pint of this,
and alter seasoning it palatably with salt
and cayenne keep it hot until it is wanted
to serve with the steamed asparagus stalks,
The rest of the creamy sauce is to be
thinned with more hot milk and water to the
proper consistency for soup ; add the
asparagus pulp to it, season it with sail
and cayenne, and keep it hot until dinner
time by placing the saueepan containing
it in a pan of hot water. Remember tc
allow one tablespoonful each of buttei
and flour for each quart of soup or each

the sauce .—Chicago News.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
To obviate the shiny appearance of
silk, sponge with unsweetened gin.
Lamp-burners, to give good light,
should be cleansed at least oaee a month.
After greasing your cake tins, sift
some flour into them, and your cake will
not stick.
Always serve oysters in hot dishes.
Cook the oysters only until they curl. If
cooked too long they are indigestible.
To remove spots on velvet, the trim¬
ming must ba unpicked on one side, and
put orer hot water to steam; then brush
up the i:ap.
To banish red ants from the pantries,
strew whole cloves around the shelves.
The same is also considered a good moth
exterminator.
When the skin is coarse and red, oat¬
meal and water is indispensable, and if
one perseveres in its use a soft white skia
will be the reward.
When washing fine, white flannels,
add a tablespoonl'ul of pulverized borax
to a pailful of water. This will keep
them soft and white.
Equal parts of ammonia and turpentine
will take paint out of clothing, even if it
be hard and dry. Saturate the spot as
often as necessary, and wash out in soap¬
suds.
If the complexion is “greasy” and
thick, soap with carbolic acid or sulphur
is excellent, and flour of sulphur,a tea¬
spoonful to a basinful of water, should be
used for washing.
Bait your mice traps with pumpkin
seals, as the mice are. v;ry fond of them.
Camphor is very objectionable to them,
and if placed in drawers or trunks the
mice will keep away.
Steel pens are destroyed by the acid in
ths ink. If an old nail or old steel pen
is put in the ink, the acid thetein will
exaaust itself on them, and pens ia daily
use will remain in good condition muen
longer.
Careful housekeepers will find the
ravelled threads from old linen the mo3t
satisfactory means of stopping tiny breaks
in tablecloth or napkiu, although liuen
floss from the draper’s may be procured
for this purpose.
Tablecloths and napkins that have be¬
come yellow or stained should be soaked
in sour milk for two or three days, Dur¬
ing this time the linen should be stirred
and shaken every now and then. When
tho linen is washed and boiled it will be
found perfectly white.

A BRAVE WESTERN WOMAN.
In the backwoods of Baker River, in
Skagit County, Oregon, lives a courage¬
ous and industrious little lady. Her hus¬
band is & man of limited means and of¬
ten has to leave home to earn means to
their support them while they are improving
home. This being the first year,
this place is not self-sustaiuing, and
when her husband is away his wife stays
at home entirely alone. All the com¬
pany she has is a Winchester rifle and a
three-pound ax. Every morning, after
she does her housework, she takes her
three-pound ax and goes to clearing,
chopping and burning brush. She is de¬
termined to have a self-sustaining and
profitable home, and when her husband
is at home she shoulders her ax and goes
to the clearing with him, in spite of his
protests against it. She says she can
chop to tne heart of a tree nearly as
quickly as he can. This lady only weighs
103 pouuds, but she has a ton of ambi¬
tion and staying qualities, She was
rooked in the cradle of ease, raised in the
lap of luxury, is well educated and the
life she is now living is entirely foreign
to her. She has had no experience in
roughing it, but she is not one of the
kind that sits and whines over past lore.
She has strong arms, a brave heart and a
willing mind and is determined to sur¬
mount the worst difficulties and reap a
reward .—Chicago Herald.
^^ITALIXN WOMEN.
In f^Ktiddle classes of Italian women
fine tiffing out of doors has to be com¬
bined with an ability (real or supposed)
for keeping house, says the St. James
Gaeette. Fond mammas regale young
men with storio3 of tiieir daughters’
prowess in cooking in a manner worthy
of Goldsmith's “Mrs, Primrose,” and
have even been known to set the hopeful
young women to sweeping and cleaning
as soon as the expected ring was heard at
the door, in order that the hesitating as
piraut might be brought to a declaration
by the sight of the girl’s capacity as a
menial servant. Under these circum¬
stances marriage bscomes simply an es¬
cape from intolerable dreariuess.
The idea of choosing n. husband to
whom she can prove a faithful wife rarely
enters the Italian girl's head. She must
be married that she may be free. Some
man of her acquaintance thinks she makes
a good figure iu the society he frequents,
finds that her dowry is sufficiently large,
and tired of “living’’ or desirous of set¬
tling down proposes for her hand. The
young wife, if she belongs to the upper
classes, suddenly huds herself in tjie pos*
session of unbounded liberty. Her chief
duty is to act as a sort of clothes peg,
that the world may praise her husband’s
liberality. She can now go out alone,
and having little to do at home, spends
mo3t of her time calling, promenading
and gossiping.
FASHION NOTES.
China and India silk are having a
run.
We are to have silk skirts again,
ruffled to the waist with 'ace flounces.
The beauty of the chemisette has been
lost by the masculine touch of scarf-pin
and studs.
Bodices are made with cross-way folds
or gathers and are much ornamented and
complicated.
Sweet pea blossoms, white and col¬
ored, real and artificial, are the popular
decorative flowers of the moment.
Veils with large black beauty spots
seem to be the favorites this year, al¬
though the effect is not so charming as
the wearer fondly imagines.
efforts Notwithstanding ail arguments and
to the contrary, dead birds in
flocks appear on millinery. Among the
most fashionable of these are swallows.
Ruffs are getting larger and larger,
and will soon die of their own intensify.
This is a pity, for in moderation the
fashion is a very pretty and inexpensive
one.
Fringes of every description are the
mode. They are of silk, chenille,
crochetted balls and beads, and a popu¬
lar fancy is to use black on colored ma¬
terial.
Black velvet ribbon strings from an
inch to two inches in width are set on
the backs of bonnels, hats and toques, are
crossed under the chin, then tied or
hooked at the back of the neck in a small
bow with ends.
In jewels for the hair in full dress,
large branches, natural size, of delicate¬
ly-enamelled flowers are to be introduced;
orchids aud clematis are the most favored
thus far. They have heea largely pur¬
chased for wedding gifts.
A well-worn gown may be rendered
fresh and chic by the addition of the
long bretelles or stoles that are the mode.
They extend from shoulder to hem and
are finished with a pendant ornament.
They are applied both to the back and
front of the gown.
The newest collars are exlreme iu
height, and usually fit smoothly to the
throat in English cloth gowns, though
when the throat of the wearer will not
permit such a very high collar it is some¬
times made to turn over iu front in
small piccadiily points.
The ourled feather band of the latest
bonnets is made up in quills, in rosettes,
in horSeshoes, etc. Bowknots are tied

A Watch Mails of Quartz.
A unique watch, said to be the only
one of its kind in the world, is in the
possession of R. A. Kettle, Manager of
the American Waltham Watch Company,
of this city. The cog bridge, the lower
plate and the case are carved out of per¬
fectly transparent quartz, hard as ada¬
mant. All there is in the watch that is
no; made of this clear crystalis the upper
plate—of gilt brass—and the running
gear, which necessarily must be of metal.
This watch is valued at $5000. It is
small-sized, a stem-winder, has been in
possession of its present owner a year,
and is an excellent timekeeper. The

movement arc set into the crystal, and
this task was one of peculiar difficulty
and delicacv. The holes which were to
hold tho jewels had to be bored before

be gauged very accurately. This done,
the plate of crystal was heated over a

two plates and ten jewels were broken
until the experiment finally succeeded in
every respect.
“The question has often been asked
me, ‘How was tho movement put into
the ease?’ ” said Mr. Kettle, the owner.
The answer is this: The case is an open
faced one, and the movement is dropped
in from the front, after which the dial,
hands and glass bezel are fitted. The
movement is pendent winding and pen¬
dent setting.”
Sir. Kettle has at present ia the pro¬
cess of making-an skeleton'dial, upper plate of crystal
aud a gold to be put into
this remarkable watch, so as to make the
entire watch transparent and show the
action of the running gear. This is done
to show the perfection attained in tho

Mr. Sturtevant entered the woods last
June, at the advice of physicians, to seek
restoration of impaired vision. The ex¬

Birds are, ordinarily, exceedingly long
lived. The swan, it is ascertained by
means of unqestionable records, has been
known to exist over 300 years. A sea
eagle, captured in 1715, ’then already
several years of age, die ! 104 years after¬
ward, in 1S19; and a white-headed vul¬
ture, captured in 1703, died in 1826 in
one of tho avaries of Schoenbruun castle,
near Vienna, having passed US years iu
captivity. Numerous ravens and paro¬
quets have been known to live 100 and
over. As with most birds, magpies live
many years in a state of freedom, but do
not reach over twenty or twenty-five in
captivity. Caged canary bird3 live from
twelve to fifteen years; but those flying
at liberty, in their native land,reach a far
more advanced age__ Our Dmtb Animals.
