Their Principal Sour res — The Cheapest Form In Which to PurrhAMc Them. The cheapest form in which to buy commercial fertilizers is an importaut question, nntl intelligent farmers will bo interested in the following, from American Agriculturist, bearing on the subject: l>f materials furnishing phosphoric acid, Sonth Carolina and Florida rock phosphate and bones are the must largely used. The rock phosphate contains about 60 per cent of phosphate of lime, which is about the same as is contained ! in bones. When this rock is ground fine ; and treated with sulphuric acid, it resolves itself into two substances. One j is a soluble phosphate of lime called su- j perphosphate: the other is sulphate of lime—tfcat is, gypsum, or land plaster. These Two substances cannot well be separated, so they are sold together under the name of superphosphate This usually contains 14 i>er cent of soluble phosphoric acid and can bo tionght for from $1.5 to$lNper ton, making the* phosphoric acid cost from 5 to 6 ' 2 cents per pound. Ground hone or bonemcal contains about 23 per cent of phosphoric acid in nr) insoluble condition. It also contains about 4 per cent of nitrogen, alsoinsolu- j ble. Both the phosphoric acid ami nitrogen become available as plant food by chemical action in the soiL Therapidity with which these changes take iilaco ; largely depends upon the fineness of the | bonemcal. Galling the phosphoric acid , in the fine bouenical worth 4 'j cents per pound and the nitrogen worth 15 cents per pound, bonemcal is worth $32.70 per ton. Another source ttf phos- , phoric acid is a phosphate of lime produced as a product in the manufacture of steel. It is calk'd by various names, among which are “Thomas slag” and “odorless phosphate.” This phosphate i contains about 20 per cent of phosphoric acid iu a condition that is insoluble in water, but when ground very line soon , becomes available to the plants. This is particularly true on lower mucky ground. It is claimed that phosphoric acid in this form is more easily taken np by the plants than iu the form in which it occurs iu hones. Galling the prosphorio acid in this phosphate worth 4 1 ., cents per pound, its value is £18 per ton. The principal sources of nitrogen are nitrate of soda, s ilphate of ammonia, dried blood, tankage and yard manure. Nitrate of soda contains about 16 per cent of nitrogen, or from 810 to 320 pounds a ton. As a ton of nitrate of soda can lie bought for$4ii<ir$47, nitrogen in this form ousts 15 cents per pound. Sulphate of ammonia contains about 20 per cent, or 400 pounds per ton. It costs $70 per ton, which makes nitrogen in this form cost 17‘j cents per pound. The amount of nitrogen in dried blood is somewhat variable, 10 jier cent being, I think, about the Average. The prices are also variable. If it contains 10 per cent of nitrogen, there would lie 200 pounds per ton, which, at 16 cents jier pound, would make the blood worth $30 per ton. Potash can be bought in the form of muriate of potash, which contains 60 per cent actual potash, for about 4 % cents per pound. In the form of “high grade" sulphate of potash it costs O h. cents per pound. Portable Houmo For Poultry. There is always more or less grain lost in harvesting, shelled off the heads or broken down out of reach of the reaper. When grain was high in price, fanners could afford to ignore this waste and let it seed the laud with a volunteer cron. But in these times every little counts, and even the waste iu tlm graiufields must bo picked up and utilized. But

Mr. anti Mrs. Hen are the people to do the work properly, and Rural New Yorktr calls attention to the way this thing is done in England. A little lieuhouso on wheels, large enough for 25 hens,'is hauled about from one part of the field to another. Wherever it stops the liens clean np all the scattered wheat fur many rods in over}' direction. They come back to the house to sleep and lay. All tho farmer has to do is to move the [ house and gather the eggs. The hens do the rest. There is progress for you. On many an American wheat farm tho liens could make tho waste wheat worth a . good deal of money. Notes of Local Interest. The United States senate has receded from its recent amendment to tho .agricultural bill appropriating $1,0(10,000 for the extermination of the Russian Hustle, and the report of tho conference committee was adopted by congress Aug. 1 with this item eliminated. Mulching potatoes has proved to he a good thing this year at the Oklahoma exi»eriment station. Director Sage of the Iowa weather bureau says that tho farmers iu Iowa will be glad to get 40 per cent of a corn crop and call it square. Experiments in feeding wheat make it appear that it pays to grind the grain. Stock that has been allowed free exercise und a mixed diet should not be shut up at once and confined to one kind of food, but have a preliminary feeding (M-riod to gradually accustom them to the changed conditions.

PARISIAN PROMENADE COSTUMES. come. A very “chic” costume from Doncet, who has the art of combining simplicity with styles and whose gowns are pre-eminently in “good form,” has a blaek satin stripe on a white ground. The skirt is made perfectly plain, its style being in tho cut, which is admirable. The black anti white silk reaches only to the armpits at the side and is finished heart shaped iu front, the extreme point touching the collar, where it ends in a spreading but narrow black satin bow. The upper part of the bodice and sleeves is niadoof accordion plaited black monsseliue do soie over white silk. The sleeves are very much puffed and roach only to the lower part of the armholes, a hand of the black and white silk continuing to tho elbow, where it is finished with black satin bows. The rest of the arm is bare, to be covered with long black gloves. The sleeves appear to lie smaller, tho puffed part lieing short, while tho remainder of the sleeve clorely follows the arm, becoming tight at tho wrist. In Loudon they have introduced a skirt of a now cut, which rests on the ground and describes a series of Vandykes at the foot. They give fullness and fall in flutings, presenting a most elegant and charming effect They have to lie caught together at the back with elastic, which causes the skirt to sway around gracefully. A broad waistband stitched to the skirt and cut to fit the figure does away with the silk belt and holds the blouse firmly in place. Two imported costumes seen recently furnish details of incoming styles. One was a cloth dress trimmed with flat cross bands, edged with machine stitching. The skirt was cut with a seam both front and back and side darts to better mold the hips. The sleeves, close fitting at the wrists, had their fullness at the top arranged in flat drooping folds; the dark hat ornamented with ostrich feathers and velvet rosettes. The second costume was in gray crepon cloth, with chemisette and chatelaine stripes in butter colored lace. Pretty bows finished off the shoulder slashes of the full bodice and tho elbow sleeves, while upright fan plaitings headed tho treble godet on each side of the skirt. The hat, bordered with feather trimming, was adorned with lemon colored velvet bows

and wings.

Tho craze for capes has by no means abated, and they are very becoming in these days of large sleeves and save the wearer from presenting a crushed and wretched appearance when there is ueed

HOW TO MEMORIZE MUSIC. Study What You Would Memorize Both With hikI Without Your Tiano. 'It is not not enough to know good pie -os with your fingers. You should be able to remember them to yourself without a pianoforte. Sharpen your powers of fancy that you may remember correctly not only the melody of a composition, but its proper harmonies also. ” These words of Robert Schumaun should be impressed on every music student. Study what you would memorize both with ami without your piuuo. Observe Its character, the key in which it is written, its rhythm, meter and movement, its harmonies, with their relations—iu fact, all its developments, melodious and harmonious. Analyze thoroughly, comparing passage with passage, tracing similarities and points of divergence, thus calling tho law of association to the aid of that of attention. Imprint on your mental consciousness the full tonal worth of each note and each chord anil see to it that your muscular training is of a kind to make your fingers obedient to the inner voice. When yon can fully orient yourself in the composition, close your eyes, that you may look only within, and try how much you can recall mentally. Then, with eyes still closed, try how much you can play. If your fingers stumble over a passage, repeat this several times, first with eyes fixed on the nott s, again with closed eyes, that the muscular sense may contribute toward fixing the impression. Repented combined action of the inner and outer forces tends to produce clearness and accuracy of image and permanence of possession. Do not give yourself a greater task to memorize daily than can lie ccomplishod without fatigue. To overstrain your powers is to enfeeble them. If you study intelligently, yon can single out certain phrases, sentences or periods and know where it is proper to stop. It is a good plan to write down from memory what you have committed, even to transpose it at times into other keys, both in writing and at the piano, says tho author of the foregoing iu Harper’s Bazar. A child can readily be interested in music if taught intelligently. Let him build scales, form chords and learn the why and wherefore of e;wh step taken, and memory will bo a matter of thorough comprehension. Youth is tho time to begin to memorize, but a well exercised memory will continue to strengthen throughout active existence. A Lamp Screen. A table screen for keeping tho wind from a lighted lamp will be found very useful. The frame of the model, described by Modern Priscilla, is made of

A NOVELTY IN CAPES.

of a wrap. Tho very latest wraps for driving and evening wear are double capes with turndown velvet collars. While slightly horsy in effect, they are smart und convenient. Another style of the ever necessary capo is circular iu shape, with a seam down each shoulder and ornamented with three rows of cloth applied as strap seams. The fronts are kept together by a strap at the throat, and another strap hidden under tho revers will keep the capo double breasted when it is closed. A heavy cloth makes up best and takes from 2 to 3 yards, according to the width.

Scalloped Chicken.

Mince cold chicken and a little lean ham quite fine; season with pepper and a little salt, if needed; stir all together and add some sweet cream—enough to make quite moist. Cover with crumbs, put it into scallop shells or a flat dish, put a little butter on top and brown before the lire or front of a ruupe.

heavy millboard. Each panel is made in two pieces, which are covered separately with dark plush neatly glued in place. The Japanese crape pictures are then glued smoothly in place, and after all is dry the front and back of each panel are sowed together. The two completed panels are then joined by sewing to form a hinge, .and large, round brass buttons or gilded wooden balls are attached for feet. A screen of this kind would bo very pretty with panels of painted bolting cloth, or pressed autumn leaves could bo used between glass panels. In the latter case the frame should l>e of wood, as tho glass would bo too heavy for a cardboard frame. ‘Preserved Plums. The following rule is equally good fnr either damson or green gage plums, the damsons being particularly nice to eat with meats; Make the sirup for all the plums to he preserved at one time, allowing a pound of sugar to a pound of frnit and a gill of water to a pound of sugar. Boil for 10 minutes; then put in the sirup only enough plums to fill two or three jars. Cook until they can easily be pierced with a straw; then can and put fresh fruit into the boiling sirup. If there is any sirup left over from preserving the plums, put in enongh sugar to make it jell and cook a little longer. This makes a delicious

jelly.

M-i|tlc Sugar Snnoa. A good liquid pudding sauce is made by scraping In If a pound of maple sugar ami dissolving it in a cupful of cream or rich milk. Let it boil a few minutes at the si(h of the range until it has the consistency of thin sirup, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Batter puddings, or, in fact, any puddings which have no decided flavor of their own, are much improved when served with this

sauce.

Household BrevitlcH. Try pouring boiling water over tea, coffee and fruit stains before putting the fabric stained iu the suds. Begin grating nutmegs at the stem - eud in order to keep them solid. New bread and butter plates of silver are perfectly round but for a little scallop on one side designed for the butter. Tho rubber ring's of fruit jars will recover their elasticity if soaked for awhile iu weak ammonia water. If oxidized silver Ik* rubbed with any kind of silvi r powder, it will lose its peculiar beauty. All that is necessary is to wadi it with soup and water ami polish it with chamois or a dry flannel.

Foreign trade 687,192,176 1,714,004.110 foreign trade has about trebled and our farm values more than doubled. But it is in wages and savings that the greatest advance is shown, and where do we ever see the fruits of protection that we do not see increased wages ami savngs? In tho last generation the wages of onr people have iucreased more than sevenfold and our savings more than twelvefold, and during tho same time wo have paid off nearly $2,000,000,000 of national debt. In 1860 our exports amounted to $888,576,007, in I802 to $1,030,2781,148, and yet, enormous as is our foreign trr.de, it is small indeed compared with our domestic trade, which last year was estimated to be about $60,000,000,000. Now we lire asked to give up this grand home market in tho )io]H'S of increasing our foreign sales by a few millions. We are asked to accept half or quarter of these wages. We are asked to draw out these savings ami buy the products of other lands. We are asked to sacrifice these manufactures and farms to impoverish ourselves as we did just before the era of protectiou began. If the McKinley bill is changed for one with lower duties, we shall lose more in a decade than we have won iu a generation. What a different set of figures the 1900 column would show after seven years of free trade! It cannot last more than seven years at the

longest.
