spring Wall Papers.
Harper's Umar: Wall papers this spring are all that spring wall papers ought to be—liglitand bright and blossoming. Stripes and garlands seem to be a popular pattern, though big bou quets and prim little nosegays scattered here and th• /e without any ap parent design are also to be seen. The background is generally white or cream colored, against which the flowers, either of showy or delicate tints, appear to good advantage. Hydrangeas, geraniums, fuchsias, verbenas, and other old fashiouedand altogether spectacular bioisoms are in highest favor. But few cf the once fashionable glazed effects appear, and gilt almost not at all. The idea seems to be to make all wall coverings just as artistic as possible. Cretonnes reflect the spirit of the papers, being light in tone, gay in color, and much given to floral designs.
THE EAST ENQ.
John Stover, of Chalmers, has located on Hocum street, in this city. Mr. and Mrs. Charters, of New Richmond, spent Sunday with A1 Michaels and family.
Mrs. McCormick, of Tinkersville, spent Sunday with her sister, Mrs. Mose Stephens, of east College 6treet.
Mrs. Mary Jackman who lives four miles north of the city, gave a farewell family dinner Sunday which was hugely enjoyed by fifteen or twenty other Jackmans. Mrs. Jaakman, who has spent her life in that vicinity, will shortly move to Waynetown where she has bought land and this was rather a parting reunion of her immediate relatives and it is sufficient to say that a very bountiful spread was laid and all were satisfied when they I left the table.
ARE YOU TO LIVE IN ALASKA?
Some licquireniPntM Tliut Will lie Found nUi]eiBulle.
The universal article of diet in that country, depended upon and indispensable, is bread or biscuit. And to make the bread and biscuit, either in the camp or upon the trail, yeast cannot be used—it must be baking powder and the powder manufactured by the processes of the Royal Baking Powder Company, miners and prospectors have iearned, is the only one which will stand in that peculiar climate of cold and dampness and raise the bread and bii-cuit satisfactorily.
These facts are very important for everyone proposing to goito Alaska .and the Yukon country to know, for should he be persuaded by some outfitter to take one of the cheap brands of bak ing powder, it will cost just as much to transport it, and then when he opens it for use, pfter all his labors in pack ing it over the long and difficult route he will find a solid caked mass or a lot of spoiled powder, with nostrength and useless. Such a mistake might lead to the mostserious results Aiaska is no place in which to experiment in food, or try to economize with your stomach For use in such a climate, and under the trying and fatiguing conditions of life and labor in that country, everything must be the best and most useful, and above all it is imperative that all food supplies shall have perfect keeping qualities. It is absurd to convey over such difficult and expensive routes an article that will deteriorate in transit, or that will be found when required for use to have lost a great part of its value.
There is no better guide to follow in these matters than the advice of those who have gone through similar experience. Mr. McQuesten, who is called "the father of Alaska," after^an experience of years upon the trail, in the camp, and in the use of every kind of supply, says: ''We find in Alaska that the importance of a proper kind of baking powder cannot be over estimated.'A miner with a can of bad baking powder is almost helpless in Alaska. We have tried all sorts, and have been obliged to settle down and use nothing but the Royal It is strouger and •.arries further, but above all things, it is the only powder that will endure the severe climatic changes of the arctic region."
It is for the same reasons that the U. S. Government in its relief expedi tious, and Ptary, the famous arctic traveler, have carried the Royai Baking Powder exclusively.
The Royal Baking Powder will not cake nor lose its strength either on board 6hip or in damp climates, and is the most highly concentrated and efficient of leavening agents. Hence it is indispensable to every Alaskan outfit. It cau be had of any of the trading companies in Alaska, but shbuld the miner procure his supplies before leaving, he should resist every aitempt of the outfitter to palm off upon him any of the other brands of baking nowder, for they will spoil and prove the cause of great disappointment and trouble.
Hats That Will I?e Worn Kaster.
March Ladies' Home Journal: Leghorn, anilla, chip and raflii, in all colors, are used for the new Spring hats, as well as an absolutely new straw braid with a satin finish, not unlike the silk-covered braids which obtained during the winter. Sailor hats, that always have an assured position, are in a new material in the form of woven bulrushes, which after being braided are shaped and generally edged with a narrow black velvet ribbon. Linen crash is also used for this kind of hat. The most striking of all are those of white or grey felt, intended for summer wear.
Rich ribbons of velvet, silk, satin and moire are all used, being plaited and shirred, while piece fabrics, heavily embroidered with beads and spangles, also obtain. The fashionable colors are periwinkle blue, anemone blue, heliotrope, champagne, the light &hades of ruby, brown, pearl gray, pink and pale green. Fanciful cornbi nations are noted in the iljwers. There is a decided fancy for putting the trimming—that may take the form of a bunch of llowers, a bow of ribbon, a drat ery of velvet or satin—under the brim on the left side, 60 massed as to have it come well on the hair.

SPRING WHEAT.
The Purdue Agricultural Kxpcriment Station Report* Thai It is a I'ailnre So Far as Indiana is Concerned*
Letters recently received at the Experiment Station indicate that the wheat crop is seriously winter killed in some localities. Several correspondents wisn to kno whether it is feasible to sow spring wheat where winter wheat is badly damaged. In order to get the concensus of opinion
on this subjdet, a letter of inquiry was addressed to to prominent farmers in several counties in the State, in which •. it was supposed spring wheat had been grown.
Nine replies from 6ix different connties have been received to date. Three correspoadents state that tney have had no experience and do not know that spring wheat has been grown near them. Five state that bpriug wheat has been grovn in the locality in previous years, but that its culture is now
abandoued These correspondents reside in the counties o.' l'uia-ki, Cass, Tippecanoe, Newiou, Bentou and Vermillion. One correspondent in the south part of Newton county has grown spring wheat extensively in thr past. The six correspondents who have any knowledge of spring wheat agree that it is a very Jiab'e to attackof rust, biight and chinch bugs. One correspondent (in Vermillion countj) states that persistent attempts on the part of a few farmers to grow spring wheat caused bad feeling in the neigh borhood. The chinch bugs harborea by it destroyed much larger areas of corn. Spring wheat growing has therefore been entirely abandoned in the community.
One correspondent would not sow spring wheat under any conditions. The one who has grown spring wheat extensively states that it should be sown very early—1st to 10th of March if possible arid that the soil should not be stirred more than two inches deep, (better one inch), first, to avoid destroying the remaining iive plants of winter wheat, and secoud, to permit the moisture to get to the surface, lie also advises rolling after sowing, lie would not grow spring wheat two seasons in in succession because of its tendency to increase the chinch bug. Another states that spring wheat should be sown on strong land, never later than the end of March.
The limited experience of the Experiment Station agrees with that of the farmers who have reported, in respect to low yield, and the poor quality of the spring wheat aud its liability to rust and insect attacks. It does not 6eem wise, therefore, to grow spring wheat in Indiana, excepting perhaps, as an experiment, and then only for a single season in a locality.
But what shall be done with fields of injured wheat? I would suggest first, that farmers wait until the growing season opens. Perhaps the wheat will rally as it did last spring. Second, if the wheat has been killed outright and the soil is impoverished, prepare a fine seed bed with a disc or spring tooth harrow, followed by a spike tooth harrow. Sow clover seed liberally and immediately roll. Third, if considerable wheat remains, use only a spike tooth harrow which will not seriously disturb the wheat plants, then sow clover seed as before, using the roll or not as may seem best.
In case clover will not catch, and if it is desired to grow some other soil renewing crop, cow peas might be sown as Boon as the spring frosts are over. This crop makes a Btrong growth, which should be turned under before frost in the lall. Being a legume the cow peas would have an excellent effect on the soil, in addition to the vegetable matter furnished. If it is necessary to grow some crop to be harvested the same season, oats, potatoes, corn, millet, or some other crop more suited to the individual needs of the farmer, may be grown but it will be decidedly better for the soil in most cases if some leguminous crop can be grown. Parties desiring to procure spring wheat or cow peas should consult the catalogues of the seedsmen and not the Experiment
