Ilomcnia-le Potato "prayer. The sprayer Illustrated herewith Is Inexpensive and easily made. First, a heavy iron rod about I 1 ; inches thick and ii'4 feet long must be procured for an axle. This may be taken from an old grain drill, or elsewhere, and adapted to the present use. For wheels, take those of the hay-rake, as a high wheel makes the flow stronger. The shafts should be about eight feet long. They are bolted to the axle, tire feet apart, and fastened securely, that the rod may not turn. Two pieces of wood, three by three Inches aud three and one-half feet long, are bolted across the shafts 12 or 15 inches apart, one of them being placed a trifle back of the axle, and the other farther In front of it. The singletree is attached to a third crosspiece farther forward. Two more pieces, two by six inches anti two feet long, are bolted edgewise across the 3x.3-lnch pieces, two feet apart. These pieces are hollowed out at the top so that a barrel will rest on them securely. Two stopcocks are inserted Into the barrel opposite the bung, and two pieces of hose six feet long, terminating in a tine spray nozzle, attached to them. The bunghole is 'turned upward and a funnel used in tilling It The horse walks between Ithe rows of potatoes, the man following and holding a nozzle in each hand above the row, on either side. When turning at the end of a row, the luxe may be laid across the barrel to stop the flow. The pressure of the liquid In the barrel, if well elevated, is sufficient to produce a steady flow, and the Jolting of the machine will keep the

paris green In solution. With a sprayer of this kind one person can easily spray ten acres of potatoes in a day.— American Agriculturist. The Nooning Time. In the longest days of the year, and when on the farm the hardest work of the year has to be done, there should be generally a longer rest at noon than is usually taken. The early morning and toward evening are the most comfortable times to work out of doors. But with a day nearly, or quite, fifteen hours long, there must be a considerable resting place in the middle of the day if health is to be preserved. The noon dinner may take half an hour or more, but after that shotiiu be a rest 'of a full hour or two, and if part of that time be spent in sleep both body and brain will be refreshed. Few know how great Is the dependence of the nerves on sleep for their continuance In vigorous health. A noonday rest of not less than two hours will enable more work to be done than can be secured without it. If storms threaten when crops have to be secured the noon rest may be omitted, for in such case when rain comes there will be longer opportunities for resting and even for sleeping than will be desirable. Killing; Rose Stags with Hot WatT. It Is very slow and difficult work thinning off the rose and pear slugs when they are found on pear and grape leaves. Not many people know that they can be easily killed by drenching the leaves with water heated to 130 to 140 degrees. This is deatli to nearly all kinds of bugs, and the water can be applied 10 to 20 degrees hotter than this without Injuring the leaves either of the pear or grape vine. If the water is applied by spraying. It should be some hotter than is required, so that it may reach the slugs at the temperature that Is surely fatal to them. Very cold water or that which has lujd ice dissolved In It will kill the rose slugs if dashed violently against them, but It knocks off many more, ami they are soon found at their work again. FcnC'*" Aronnd Garden*. There should be no fences except those put up for temporary protection, and that can be easily takeu down around the garden. If a permanent fence is built It Is always in the way, ami becomes a harbor for weeds, which will grow at all the more ’uxuriantly because the garden is rich. Neither should fruit trees be planu-d around the garden for like reason. The fruit garden ought to be by Itself, and < n the farm It Is better to grow all the tree fruits In the main orchard, that can then be fenced in and used as a pasture for pigs. I’y Products of the D-lrv. Almost all great manufacturing enterprises now derive a great part of their profits from the careful saving

and use of hy products that wore formerly wasted. It Is much the earns with tho dairy. There Is no large matgin of profit In making butter and cheese nt present prices, and the question bow to dispose of tho by products left after these are made usually decides whether the result shall be on the loss or on the profit side. Making curd cheese without rennet from '.lie skim milk is a protitable way to use it where a near market can be hail for It. Almost every city or village would dispose of a large quantity every day If it wore placed on market. Besides this, feeding skim milk to fowls, to pigs and to the cows are good ways to dispose of It. Which will be most protitable must depend on circumstances. Rrmovlns Foul Heeds from Grain.

will not float—only the seed pods of weeda and the lighter stuff. Better sift the wild seed out, and the illustration shows how to do it easily ami , quickly. Removable wire mesh bottoms may be used and thus a choice made in the size of mesh to use with , any particular grain or beans, peas. etc. It will pay to use a mesh coarse enough to permit all small and Inferior kernels of grain to fall through with the weed act'd. Then only the best and most vigorous kernels will . be sowed. Such selection of the best , seed year after year will bring up the quality of rhe grain wonderfully.— harm and Home. 1 Fell! nir Youne Pica. There Is always profit In breeding ■ pigs, providing the breeder is not too greedy, and Is willing tv sell his stock at reasonable rates. Live and let live should always be the rule. In nothing ; is this more true than in the breeding and sale of stock. It Is very easy to get a surplus of stock greater than can be either kept or fattened with profit. As the pigs grow older it costs more to produce a pound additional growth, and what is worse, this extra I weight Is not worth so much per pound '|as is that of the smaller pig. The sow ’ pigs may be worth more as they grow ’ older If set to breeding, but the farmer who breeds pigs largely to sell while young does not wait for the sows to get to breeding age before disposing of them. He leaves some of the profit ' to the purchaser of his stock, as every stock seller ought to do. If no one did ' this the race of buyers would quickly ’ run out, and then the grower of young pigs would be worse off than ever. ►elect the Re*t. Did you ever notice that certain liens , In the flock always seemed more alert and active than others? See how per- . haps half a dozen out of thirty or forty are always running around, singing, • perking their heads up in a "Don’t you see I’m a rustler” kind of way, and doing more work in an hour than the . rest of the flock in four. Take care of . these. Separate them from the rest ot the flock. Ixiok after them with , great care, and by breeding them carefully to choice males, you can raise up a strain of fowls that will be pho- , nomenal layers. Now don’t sneer at this idea. It Is a fact and one that is . worthy of your looking into. Feeding Bran in Summer. Cows at pasture are greatly helped by feeding a bran mash morning and night when giving milk. Good as grass Is It does not furnish the full propori tlon of nitrogenous and mineral sub- ■ stance that the cow requires to give ' the largest quantity of milk, and bran Is a better food for this than is grain , or grain meal. Cows that will not > cat corn meal when at pasture will eat and relish a bran mash made with ; water heated to blood tempemure. Dairy Notes. The cow should have all the food that she will assimilate. A cow that Is heated and worried will not milk well ami her milk will not make good butter. You cannot feed a scrub calf Into a good one, but you can easily stint a well-bred calf into a scrub. It Is no use to say that dairying does not pay, for It does pay those who know how to conduct the business. The dairyman should not only breed up hr< cows, but by proper course of fertilization Increase the bearing capacity of the soil. The latest thing for the deception of the dairy farmer is a bogus cottonseed mold. It has been analyzed and d-teet-ed by two of the experiment stations. Cows drink from four to five gallons of witter daily on the average. This should be as free from all Impurities or surface drainage ns the waler used in the family. Not every farmer can feed his cows a wide ration, because It is sometimes too costly to lie available; but whatever the feed there should bo plenty of it, and It should be accompanied by plenty of water

Wsshlna Lace Curtains, It always pays to have a frame of light wooden strips to dry curtains on. It should be the exact size of the cur. tains, so that they mny be stretched on It when wet, nud dried In this wny Tack a strip of long cloth on nil aides of the frame, and pin the curtains evenly to this atrip nt the bottom, top nud sides. Or If you prefer, they may be (mated to It, though thia Is more trouble. Almost any variety of curtain can be washed by the method given. Expensive Brussels curtains had better be cleaned by a regular French scourer who understands how to handle real Ince. Before touching the curtains make a strong aoapHtids of hot water in which a tablespoouful of borax has been dissolved for every gallon of water, and half a bar of soap shaved and melted for every tubful of water. Put the curtains In this water. Souse them up and down nnd let them soak well covered over night. The next morning examine them, put them through n wringer and throw them into fresh soapsuds. Souse them repeatedly and scald them In a clothes Isdler and rinse them as carefully as possible If. two or three rinsing waters. If they are wldte blue them a little, but blench them, laying them on the frames on the grass. If they are creamy in color ary them In the house, and use a few tablespoonfuls of strong coffee to preser.'s the yellow tint.—New York Tribune. Creamed Clams. Take the clams that have been steam ed and chop them tine. For a cupful of chopped clams have a cup of cream sauce. To make the sauce put in a spider one tableiqioonfiil of butter, and when it is melted stir in one tablespoonful of flour, and add half a cup of the clam liquor and half a cup of cream. Season with cayenne pepper, but be sparing of your salt until you have tested the mixture. Let it cook until it is smooth and like a thick cream, stirring all the time. Lay small squares of toasted bread on a heated platter. Add the chopped clams to the creamed mixture and turn it over the pieces of toast. Air the Sleeping Room. Immediately upon leaving the sleeping room in the morning, the windows should Im* all raised, full height and the doors thrown open, to enable the fresh outside air to reach every corner of the apartment in free circulation. There is marvelous power in rhe air to sweeten and to purify. Very thoughtful people, who like things absolutely fresh and pure, are careful to turn back the bed-clothing In such away that the air can touch every part which has been in contact with the sleeper. Or, better still, the bed-clothing is taken from the bed and spread upon chairs, near the open window.—Womankind. Cherry Pudding. Stone the cherries ami lay them in a buttered pie dish, with sugar, grated lemon rind, and a dash of brandy, put the dish in the oven, and when the fruit is quite tender take it out aud have ready a meringue made with the whites of six eggs beaten to a stiff froth, and add by degrees half a pound of castor sugar. Pile this mixture upon the fruit and put it in the oven to set. Vegetable Soup, Cut two lettuces, two turnips, carrots, onions, a young cucumber and a globe artichoke into neat slices, put them into a saucepan with a little butter and allow them to take a nice color, add two quarts of good stock, a bunch of herbs aud salt and pepper. Simmer gently for an hour or longer, add two spoonfuls of brandy am' a squeeze of lemon juice, aud serve very hot. Baked Rhubarb, Strip the thin skin from the young, tender stalks, and cut in half-inch lengths. I'our boiling water over them, and cover for five minutes. Drain off the water, add a cupful of sugar to a pint of rhubarb, put in an earthen or granite-ware dish and bake slowly. It should have the consistency of thia jelly aud show a pinkish green color. BtnfFed Take hard-boiled eggs; shell them and cut in half; take out the yolks and mix with bread crumbs soaked in milk, adding chopped capers aud minced sardines. a little oil. vinegar, pepper aud salt; till the whites with the mixture. Chocolate Pudding. Scald together one quart of milk and three ounces of grated chocolate, and set aside to cool. Then add nearly a etip of sugar and yolks of five eggs. Bake, and when done spread whites ou top and brown. Brief llintn. Meat aud fowls may be made more tender if, when they are boiling, a teaspoonful of vinegar be added to the water. The addition of a little salt to sweet foods helps to bring out the flavor, and add things are Improved by the addition of a little sugar.
