REAL RURAL READING

WILL BE FOUND IN THIS PARTMENTfarmers Should Make Money—Value of Ensilage as Fodder—A Hint to House Builders—How Cows and Calves Should be Fed—The Poultry Yard, Household, Etc. Reducing Farm Expenses.

1 .FARMERS have | always been more noted for their ~ carefulness about small expenses than for prodigI Their /•AT business is one so r full of detail that ;! if the 1 i 111 e a things are not —ip' looked after, even /'•' the largest crops dp and best prices V . will notsavefrom loss. It is the lack of the close attention to de-

tails that farming requires that has caused the failure of schemes of bonanza farming. What is done by hired help, not under personal supervision of the employer’s eye, is apt to do only eye service. It is as true practically as when first uttered, that the hireling flecth because he is a ijjrgling. The workman in any ocwho alwHvs makes fiis employer’s interest his own is invaluable. Yet if he woukVbv.t reg'”’' l rightly that interest Is identical with his, The keen competition for intelligent, reliable help insures it what it can earn, for if one employer will not pay for faithful service, another will. It is therefore not likely that farm wages will soon, if ever, materially decline. The demand for young men, in city employments has for many years taken the most active and enterprising—more than it will, we believe, in the near future. Business life in cities is precarious. Few merchants can go through life without a failure at its middle or at the close. The fact is becoming recognized that equal executive ability on the farm will, on the average, produce as much wealth and more comfort than it can in average business and commercial city Except in the item of farjp help, and possibly also in that, the cost of getting farm work done bus declined, the aggregate expense is greater, but it is or may be offset by still larger results. One man with improved machinery can do so much more work that not- only does he earn better pay, but something is or ought to be left over for the farmer if he tloes his part. There is also great reduction in the prices of most improved agricultural machinery. As various patents run out the cost from the manufacturers will be greatly lessened. This is to a greater extent than is thought true now in machinery where there is rightful competition of firms manufacturing under different patents. Any one now can buy reapers, mowers, drills and cultivators 20 to 30 percent, cheaper than was charged for them a decade ago. The greatest reduction of farm expenses, however, must be relative by increasing amount and value of its products. Rich and well-drained land produces so much more than that in poor condition as to give the farmer who owns the best farm a great advantage. He and his hired help may work no harder, and possibly not so many hours, but they accomplish more, and thereby produce at less cost. This is the only practical way to make farming pay. The man who does not improve his farm, and waits for a high price to help out his poor farming, will learn when the good prices come that he has so little to sell that it does not profit him much. On the other hand, if he conducts his business so as to produce large crops these can usually be sold at some profit in any condition of the market. —American Cultivator.

How to Fumn Brush Scythe to Snath. Here is the most substantial way of fastening a sythe to the snath I have ever seen or tried, says a

Practical Farmer correspondent. The patent devices always give way when cutting brush or striking stumpsand rails in the fence corners.

I took a piece of an old square, cut it about five inches long, drilled four holes, fastened it to the snath with three strong screws, and to the scythe with the old-fashioned heel ring. Drive the stump of an old nail behind the shank of scythe, and the trouble is ended. I can cut off bushes as large as the snath and the scythe is always there. . You can get the scythe adjusted or hung to suit yourself before putting in the screws to fasten the plate. The Value or Ensilage. The Maryland agricultural experiment station reports the best method of preserving forage and the comparative value of the same plant, harvested and stored in different wavs, form part of the general problem of forage and feeding. The system of silosand ensilage, is no longer an experiment. Practical farmersand dairymen in all parts of the country have demonstrated the direct profit and the incidental advantages of preserving a portion of their forage crops in the form of ensilage, so as to give their animals, of all kinds, a fair proportion of succulent food, throughout the year. Ensilage is found as profitable for supplementing pasturage in times of drought, as for giving stock “a green bite” in the winter. Indian corn is the favorite crop of ensilage, the most productive, the easiest to raise, and, all considered, the best. But Clovers, the cow-pea and the soja bean, make a more nutritious article of ensilage, and may be advantageously mixed with corn, in the silo. Other plants and waste products, some unpalatable in other forms, make fairly good ensilage. Ensilage is no better food for stock than good roots, but in nine case out of ten, ensilage can be produced and handled easier and cheaper than roots, and is just as good for stockfood. A good many pointe regarding silos and ensilage remain unknown or

uncertain. Consequently ensilage of different plants is yearly made at the Station, managed in different ways,' fed to different classes of stock, in various combinations, and the observations made are duly recorded.

LIVE STOCK. Age Testa. A heifer has net rings on her horns until the is 2 years of age, and one is added each year thereafter. You can tell the age of a cow with tolerable accuracy by counting the rings on her horns and adding two to the number. The bull has no rings, as a rule, until he is 5 years old, so to tell his age after that period, add five to the number of rings. The better way to tell the age is by the teeth, which is of course the only way with polled cattle. What are called the milk teeth gradually disappear in front. At the end of three years the second pair of permanent teeth are well grown, at four years the third pair, and at five the fourth.andlast pair have appealed, and at this time the central pairT~o qt f!;ll £i.ze. At seven years a dark line, caused bythe wearing of the teeth, appears on all of them, and on the central pair a circular mark. ’At eight years this circular mark appears on all of them,and at nine years the central pair begins to shrink, and the third at eleven. After this period the age can only be determined by the degree of shrinkage generally; At fifteen the teeth are nearly all gone.

Horse Breeding. The special demand for certain classes of horses is oroughtto be well known by everybody, but judging from the fact that so many scrubs are yet bred is evidence enough, says the Rural and Stockman, that this demand is either not known or not appreciated. There is a demand for good horses of all breeds. The market is not overstocked in any direction whatever. The heavy draft horses are always in demand; the Hambletonian sells readily enough; the Morgan is always in demand; the Coacher is not imported or bred largely enough to satisfy the demand for that class of horses. What. then shall we breed? From what we have said the proper answer would seem to be: “Breed anything but the scrubs.” There are horses at work in Chicago that cost only from ten to forty dollars; and they do the work at which they are put. Some of them are not very old horses either. But they are scrubs to begin with and perhaps having been bred from defective sires or dams have been good for nothing' from the beginning. They are not the kind of horses that the public in general want. Looking over our weekly horse sales it is not difficult to see what kind of horses we ought to breed if we want to make anything from horse breeding. Horses are like all other kinds of stock in the matter of profit, they must be the best to be profitable.

THE DAIRY.

Feeding- of Cow* and Calves. Experiments qt the lowa Station gave the following facts or indications: Quality of milk so far as measured by its percentage of fat was changed by feed to a much greater degree than was quantity. Twothirds of the increase in average gross yield of butter fat was due to improved quality of the milk, and only one-third to increased milk-flow. Corn is not a perfect milk ration. Substitution of bran and qilmeal result in increase of quantity and quality of milk. A ratiori of skim-milk and ground flaxseed compares favorably with a new ration for young calves. The larger gain came from the whole milk but a part of it was partly due to the individuality of the calves and good results and a thrifty growth were made on skim-milk and ground flaxseed. The skim-milk calves were interrupted less in growth toy weaning than the whole milk calves. A saving in value of butter fat alohe of sl.ll per month on each calf was effected by substituting ground flaxseed. The cost of producing a pound of gain estimating new milk at 87J cents per 100 pounds and skim-milk at 15 cents ffer 100, gain 1 cent per pound, Hay $5 per ton, and flaxseed meal 3| cents per pound, was ".events for the fresh milk ration and 5 cents for the skim-milk ration.

THE POULTRY-YARD.

A Plan lor Winter Egg*. A secret of winter egg production is warm quarters for the fowls, writes A. R. Stuyvesant, in Farm and Home. A friend who always has quantities of eggs when they bring 35 cents to 40 cents per dozen, has a novel place for his hens’ bed roonu It is in the side of a haymow, which keeps the birds warm all winter. To take advantage of such accommoda; tions the space must be built in the side of the hay .before the hay is put in. Built the size of a cord of wood, 4x4 and 8 feet long, it will nicely quarter twenty to twenty-five hens. The room for fowls should join the mow on the south or west, and the sleeping compartments open from it under the hay as shown. This will keep off all severe winds and dangerous drafts. The cut represents the side of the room next the hay. The two doors thrown open expose the entire roosting room, which, is thus easily cleaned. Gauze covers an aperture at the top of one door for ventilation (A) warm nights and can

be closed tightly when it is cold and windy. The main ventilator extends nearly to the floor inside and above the doors without (B). If one desires to have the hens lay beneath the roosts In prepared boxes, the little slide door (C) may be left open days and the dark quarters will please the fowls for thb purpose.

Treatment for Lice. The best fumigation known to us la as follows: Take a small furnace, or stove, or iron kettle, into which place a pound or two of crude roll sulphur, broken up. Close the doors and windo ws(durl ng the absence of the fowla in the forenoon) and set the contents of the vessel on fire in the center o 1 the floor. Shut'the house up tight and leave it to smoke a couple ol hours. Then open all the window* and doors for thorough ventilation. If a poultry house is infested with red mites or red spider lice, we suggest the use of kerosene; as it is said that kills them at once. As theii haunts are the cracks and crevices of the roostlng-poles, the sides of the buildings, nest boxes, etc., they are easily destroyed. Where they are numerous, go over the whole inside of the building with hot whitewash, using it quite freely, so as to fill every crack and crevice. Clean out and whitewash the nest boxes, clean up the flooy and put in fresh sand.-. Kansas Farmer.

THE HOUSEHOLD.

A Bally Jumper. A jumper for the baby to amuse itself with can be knocked together with a few sticks, as shown in the cut. Ais a strong board two inches wide and forty inches long, supported on the board D, which is six inches highland acts as a pivot. The lever A runs through a hole in the end board C and is connected by a strong spring to the bottom supports, so that

the child can jump up and down with safety.- By moving the brace E and the cross-bar F, the pivot u can be changed. The two supports, marked B, are thirty-six inches long and two inches high. The end block 0 is fourteen inches high and six inches wide, the hole in it for A being six inches from the bottom, five inches high and two and one-half inches wide.—Farm and Home. Useful Knowledge. To purify water, hang a small bag of charcoal in it. For toothache, try oil of sassafras, and apply it frequently, if necessary. Vinegar bottles may be cleaned with crushed egg-shells in a little water. If the color has been taken out of silks by fruit stains, ammonia will usually restore the color. To brighten carpets, wipe them with warm water in which has been poured a few drops of ammonia. A good liniment for inflammation, rheumatism, swellings, etc., is olive oil well saturated with camphor. A good cement is melted alum, but it must never be used when water and heat are to come in colntact with it. When onions are beingteooked, the strong, disagreeable odor may be lessened by placing vinegar on the stove. To purify the air in a newlypainted room, put several tubs of water in it, and it will absorb much of the odor. To clear a stove of clinkers, put a handful of salt into it during a hot Are. When cold, remove the clinkers with a cold chisel. Fine shavings from soft pine wood make a pleasant pillow. They have special curative virtues for coughs and lung troubles.—Good Housekeeping.

THE KITCHEN.

Practical Ifcclpn*. Orange Float.—One quart water, the juice and pulp of two lemons, one coffeecup sugar. When boiling hot, add four tablespoons cornstarch. Let boil fifteen minutes, stirring all the time. When cold, pour it over four or five oranges that have been sliced into a glass dish, and over the top spread the beaten whites of three eggs, sweetened and flavored with vanilla. Crumbed Haddock.—Remove the skin and bones from cold-boiled haddock and boil with a small onion; pick the fish into flakes and mix with each pint of fish one teaspoonful of salt, a half-teaspoonful of pepper and a teacupful of bread crumbs, fill a buttered dish with the mixture, moisten with a little water in which the fish was boiled, and bake twenty minutes. Farmers’ Fruit Cake. —Soak three cups of dried apples over night in warm water; chop slightly in the morning, and then simmer two hours or more in two cups of molasses until the apples resemble citron. Make a cake of two eggs, one cup sugar, one cup sweet milk, three-fourths cup butter, 1} teaspoons soda, flour to make a rather thick batter, spice tn plenty; put in the apples and bake in a quick oven. This is very nice. Potato Pancakes.—These make an excellent supper dish. Grate a dozen medium-sized peeled potatoes. Add the yolks of three eggs, a heaping tablespoonful of flour, with alarge teaspoonful of salt, and lastily the whites of three eggs beaten stiff, ana thoroughly incorporated with potatoes. Fry the cakes in butter and lard (equal parts) until they are brown.

Queen Emma o the Sandwich Islands.

The Queen of the Sandwich Islands is not only a very great favorite with the natives, but is also largely affected by the English colony. Bhe has been twice to England and received much attention and many presents from Queen Victoria. Her one-quarter quota of native blood gives her the appearance of a brunette. She is 46 years old, and, like all native women whose lives are of content and easy indolence, seems to be mnch younger. She resembles the pictures of Victoria taken twenty years ago. Queen Emma is what at an American watering place might be termed a “stunning” dresser, and is possessed of a mania for being photographed in different costumes and attitudes. At Montano’s, the swell photographer of Honolulu, she is seen m no less tlian twenty-five different photographs. and in no two of them in the same dress.

The Are of Muscle.

Tbit la It undoubtedly. Never before in the history ot the race did the cultivation of muacle receive Buch universal attention and encouragement. Even the gentler aex practices every branch of callathcnics affected by th® troueered gender. Thia of course is well, lor exercise is an essential of health. But to the feeble, the nervous, and the dyspeptic, Hostetter's Stemach Bitten affords a guaranty of primal vigor npon which a superstructure of muscularity may advantageously bo built. Most genial and speedy ot tonics, it la also the most thorough of regulaton, entirely rectifying errors of digestion and bilious secretion, and promoting a healthy habit ot body. It conquers and prevents intermittent and bilious remittent fever, rheumatism, kidney and bladder trouble. The aged, inflrm, and convalescing derive immeasurable benefit fro u its use; it imparts a hearty relish for fpod and overcomes insomnia,

Long Fiber.

The longest continuous fiber Known at the present time is that of silk. , A cocoon of a well-fed silkworm will often yield 1,000 yards long, and in one instance one has been produced 1,205 yards without a break.

THE LOVELL SAFETY.

A New Bicycle Which the Public Likes, While thousands within the last decade have enjoyed the spert of cycling, the fact is nevortheles obvious that many thousands more have been deterred from enjoying it iu consequence of the high prices demanded for a really good wheel. It remained for the John P. Lovell Arms Company of Boston to change this state of affair?. It was last year that the public first became aware that there was a new low-priced safety bicycle on tho market, a wheel strictly high grade and equal in every particular to any manufactured in America or Europe. As previous to this all manufacturers had charged a very large price for a first-class wheel,, the John P. Lovell Arms Company is therefore the first house that has ever offered the public such a wheel at a price that docs not place it leyond the reach of the average person's purse Tho company that manufactures this wheel (the Lovell Diamond Safety) is one of tho oldest of all the manufacturing and mercantile houses in New England, having been established in 1810. Besides being now one of tho leading bicycle firms in the United States, the John P. Lovell Arms Company is and has been for years a well-known manufacturer and dealer In firearms and sporting goods of every description. On June 13 of last, year, the firm celebrated Its half-century anniversary. The founder of this enterprising house, Mr. John P. Lovell, tilth nigh Over 70 years of age, Is still an Important and active ‘member of this world-famed house. A simple remedy for round shoulders is to stand facing a corner of tho room, and with hands extended on the wall In either direction, and tho feet firmly placed, to move tho body slowly toward the corner. This exercise faithfully repeated every morning wlll'make the form beautifully erect.

“German Syrup” Martinsville, N.J., Methodist Parsonage. “My acquaintance with your remedy, Boschee’s German Syrup, was made about fourteen years ago, when I contracted a Cold: which resulted in a Hoarseness and a Cough which disabled me from filling my pulpit for a number of Sabbaths. After trying a Physician, without obtaining relief—l cannot say now what remedy he prescribed —I saw the advertisement of your: remedy and obtained a bottle. li received such quick and permanent help from it that whenever we have had Throat or Bronchial troubles since iu our family, Boschee’s German Syrup has been our favorite remedy and always with favorable results. I have never hesitated to report my experience of its use to others when I have found them troubled in like manner.” Rev. W. H. Haggarty, of the Newark, New a Safo Jersey, M.E. Conference, April 25,’90. Remedy. © G. G. GREEN, Sole Man’fr,Woodbury,NJ. 1
