There is a ereat deal of organization among thn farmers but it ia of a too loosa and ineffective character. Tiie aii3 of the various orders are eood and their members are honest in their dfeire to accompli!) thu B, bot many come short of arnt at, pra-.tical effort to make tha organizations what they should be. The local pranize or alliance ia what wo make it. In tome sections of our country the lacal organizations are in vie a inean3 for neighborhood co-operation and the resultant $:od is great. It fosters a spirit of eom-uon interest in home aal neighborhood affairs and teaches the memoera to lubordinata s:iiall ditferences for the general welfare. This spirit and practice of co-operation can do more for a neighborhood, townebip or country than any other agency. There are numerous instances in which a section of coantry has become noted for tha excellence of a certain class of stock. This is never true of communities in which each man is inclined toatanl alone, and is everrealyto criticise all ventures made by others. It pays any section to build Tap a rei uta'ion for doing one tiling well, whether it be tha production of anyone crop or breeds of stock. Such a reputation attracts buyers an 1 the products command a good pile. It is secured onlv by an agreement of ojiinion auioo the farmers and concert of action. In burin and eel ins co-operation is benefic al. It is possible to purchase sapTites more cuetply w!ien orders are larire. Deaer ran allurd to make a discount to heavy buyers. Xear.y al farm products can be disposed to better advantage when the amounts are I trge. This is notably true of wool. If the farmers of a county or township could work together to secure aceruin grade cf wool, and it was put up in (ri :c order, such a lot would command a better price than anv sine lot would brin. It is true that all cannot tee alike, and evervone must judge for himself, but we con d be in betttr accord if we vers w il ing to be so. It never pay one part of a nighborhood to antagonize another. Our inierests are eitiUr and will bo bet promoted by tome unity of action. tarn. er organizations are a means to such an end when tited aright. They brin their n embers together tor confrr. r.ce.

The farmer that is always telling the public that there is nothing the matter with the business of farming except the farmer, and is always pointing to his fine house and barn in proof that farming 1 ays big profits to him, has been receiving some attention of late from those who are not netting rich off 65-cent wheat. The prodigy farmer is the one who is always telling of his wonderful yields on small piec- 8 of land, but forgets to teil how oiten he fails or how much it co?ts him to raise a crop. He is a! wave beratii gothera for not doing as he does, and claims that he wants no better show for making n cney than farming in this country a.Tords. The Sentinel farmer is not condemning ''pro ligy farming." He believes and ears weshou d raise our national average yitdd, and he practices what he preaches by trying to do all be undertakes as well as he knows how. We can improve our soil, improve our seeds and improve our met! oda, and if the prodigy farmer is helping to show how this is done be is worth our moral support. But thecass under consideration do not go far enough. They often fad to tell us that they ppend three times the average cost of producing an acre of aome grain or vegetable in their attempt to get a big yield. We want to know all the panicu ara. This practice usually pav?, but the net receipts ere not as great as the unthinking are led to be iere. But. pays one, look at my fine barn end hoiife, my carriage and road hores. The discuion oi these farmers has shown that ali their money niav not be ma le from funning. Some oi them are interested in a ock companies or have inherited property, and mix the proceeds from a sources. A few of them are making a thousand or so a vear by doing work for institute societies, farm papers, etc They seem to fornt to tell that they find other sources of income than the farm. All honor to the man who can make two blailea of grass grow where only one has grown belore, but we do not want too great an expression of complacency with the present conditions when we know tnat under present conditions good farmers are not gettinz even a fair profit from tiding the soil. Covered Barnyards. A few of our most progressive farmers have what they are pleased to call covered barnyards. The usual open lot, muddy and filthy, is a nuisance on the farm. It is often the receptable of all the odds and ends of the farm, is made the temporary tool houe and the winter quarters for part of the farm stock, at least during the day. It is eay to condemn such loose practices, but all farmers know how impractic ible it is to store every farm implement in a cramped tool house each night when they are in daily use, an 1 so the habit is too common to leave tools in the open lot ali night. Then during the winter the stock need watering and some exercise, and the barnyard seems to be needed for this purpose. The manure is wasted and the premises made unsightly, but many have seen no help for it. The great mistake has been in supporting that so much room was needed. With proper management the greater part of the space is not needed. On the average farm, where six or eight hornes or colts, a dozen cattle, etc., are kept, a covered bitrnvard is practicable. It need not be larger than GO or 60 feet by 20 or 24. It should be eajy of acceea. so that during the summer all farm machinery that is in constant use can be drawn into it before unhitching. It thus becomes a temporary tool house at the time of the year that ttock is on grass. It should be next to the s at . an that the hordes can go direct to their stalls. The cistern and water trough should be in one corner of it. During li e winter all the manure that in not spread ' n the tieids as soon as ruade sliou d be kept in this shed. If it is spread evenly, covered with dry straw and tramp ed with stock, il will be firm and pleasant to walk on Into this yard the various lots of stock c tn be turned from their s' al s at dilferent times and given water aud exercise. There i no mud. no hah, no exposure for man or beast ami no waste of manure. The shed ehouid be on the eitle of the barn best protected from co d winds, and it is usually best to enclose the ends. There is lers danger of injury to the stock, as there is no running over froteu or slippery ground or the usual obstacles that are usually found in barnyards. It ic no place for vicious animals, but such ones should never be turned with any other stock in anv yard. The cost of construction need not be great. One side cf the roof should be sustained by the barn. Posts are needed for the outsi le, and iron rods to support the center rafters. No posts ehouid be used insiJe the shel as they would be in the way. As a temporary toot house in the summer and fall, and as a watering yard and manure shed in the winter, such an improvement will pay a very large profit on the investment. It stops several large farm leaks and odds wonderfully to the comfort of the farmer as well as his animals. Imdorslas; Cbeete. Notwithstanding the fact that we exported many million dollars worth of cheese last year, mach foreign chese was imported. While we make an excess of cheese above the wants of onr own people, no fail to fill the demand for the

hiebest grades, and those who eho ild be our customers are compelled to look to foreign producers for their eupply. It is probable that this case is illustrative of a national tendency among farmers to fail 10 make the wants of the peoula a study. This imported cheese is very rich as a rule, and is ripened with much skill. The cheeses are small and well suited to those who want a small amount and the verv best. They are made by the French anil Swiss, and the hiih character of each brand is carefully maintained. It would seem that some of our American cheesemakers should find it profitable to supply this demand for small creamy cheeses, made and ripened in, a perfect manner. A very few factories have undertaken to do this, but the importation of more than a mil ion dollars worth indicates that there is room for more. Ifeavr Fertilization. Some of the New Jersey farmers who find a good market in Ne;v York City are practicing commercial fertilization to an extent that would eeem very reckless to the average Western farmer. Mr. D. G. Lewis of Cranbury. on seventeen acres of potatoes appli"l $150 in lertilizers, making an excess of $25 per acre for the single item of manure, rte proposes to increase this amount and says he ia willing to trust his soil with $50 worih of solutde fertilizers per acre confident that it wid par.

He follows potatoes with wheat and grass, on which barnyard manure is spread, and it is broken for corn, thus forming a five years' rotation as the grass is mown two years. Such heavy fertilization pays on high priced Und where there is litt e charge for transportation. Farmers should experiment and leant whetner the reran ercial fertilizers will pay them, and if 60 to what extent. Teaching toc to Be Breachy. Stock is made breachy by the csreVsaness of owners. Poor fences and scant feed are responsible for the bad tricks learned by our farm stock when in pasture. If a colt be pe milled to jump over a low fence it soon learns to expect to go over all fences. If the fence is not solid it may push it down in its plav, and thenlearn to do so in earnest. It is tho same with unruly stock of every kind. It does not pay to have poor gates or bare that allord temptation, and if one has breachy stock he siiou.d either dispose of it or make extra atrong inciosures. There is nothing more exasperating than the horse or sheep or hog that is always getting out of the held and into mischibf. It is thoroughly unprofitable. The Crop One Likes. It is a rather remarkable fact that a man succeeds best with the crop he likes beat. Men on adjoining farms, with similar soil, may grow dissimilar crops and be equa ly successful. If one likes to work in corn the probability is that he can raise big crops. He will stop to set up little stalks of corn and pull the earth around it when another would pas on. So it is with other farm crops. He mav like a special farm crop because he is successful with it, but if he disliaed the kind of work it requires the chances are that he would give it less care, and his yields would be less. If his soil permits the farmer rarely g es far amiss who raises that which he likes best to handle. False Economy. My neighbor has, from time immemorial, taken his stock thirty rods to the creek for water. As he usually has an assortment of odds and ends, running from a long-haired yearling calf to a really good horse, he regards it the easiest way to turn them loose and let them travel the public road to the creek. It takes from thirty minutes to an hour to water his stock, and occasionally a colt gives him a longer chase. Now that man believes he is economical, while the time that be spends in this way in one year wou d be euthcient to dig a cistern, pay for a pump, and build a shed over the pump and watering shed that would last a lifetime. leep I'raiiinpre. How deep should we lay tiles? is the question many are asking. Tiling ir costly work at best, and every additional half-foot in the bottom of the drain a ids to the expense. Some affirm that two feet make sufficient depth, and are laying tile no deeper, while others claim that three feet are little enough. A difference of a font in the depth of drains amounts to several dollars per acre. England once carried the craze for deeD drainage so far that tile was laid six feet under ground for common drainage, but it was found that this was too great a distance to. draw surface water.

Never allow meat to remain in paper, nor in the hot kitchen, as it will soon spoil. Pat it on a china or earthen dish in the cool-st place 7 on have un il it is wanted. To "cook meat in its own juice" it must be put in a stone jar or crock with a close cover without any water, and eubjected to slow, pentle. long-continued heat. This method makes tough meat tender and palatable.

Housekeepers very often find that the crisp, white celery or the firm lettuce which they bring into the house in the evening has become wilted and worthless by morning. The cause of this is the exposure of the plant to the strong light of the warly morning hours or to heat. To keep thoroughly firm, any green vegetable should be kept at as cold a temperature as possible an 1 in the dark. A simple cure for the hotrse colds which are so general in an open season like the present consists of the white of an egg beaten with the juice of a lemon and sweetened with sutficient sugar to make it palatable. While such a mi d prescription as this has no remedial effect in the cae of a violent cold, it certainly does cure hoarseness, and is a great re.ief to the sufferer.

Jersey Sausage Hemove the skin, bits of bone and gristle from rather lean fresh pork. Chop very fine or grind in a sausage cutter, and season as follows: For ten pounds of meat a low five tablespooofuls of salt, four of black pepper, three of powdered sage, and halt a teaspooufui of chevenne pepper. Mix all thoroughly. Orange Dessert Feel twoive large orangen, cut in thin slices, remove all the pips ; sift over them one pound of sugar, whip a pint of cream, and add the beaten yolks of three eggs. Pour over and cover the top with sheet of pee e i iemon, well sugared. Spread with meringue flavored with extract o( rose. Cheese Cakes Line patty tins with pastrv and till with three ta'b!espoonfu!s j of butter, three tablespoonfuls of sugar. one robed biscuit, two tablespoonfuls of brandy, the yolks of two egs, juice and rind of one-ha f of a lemon, two tablespoonfuls blanched chopped sweet almonds and one-half of a tableepoonful of bitter almonds mixed with it. Broi ed Hamburg Steak Instead of frying place your steals upon gridiron or double wire broiler, wed greased, aud broil them on both sides, place them on a hot dish and pour over them melted butter, seasoned with sat aud cayenne pepper. This mixture of meat is also often spread upon slices of bread, with butter, in which a spoonful of dry mustard has been mixed, an lu-ed as a sandwich, or it may be served raw and cold with auicss of bread spread with butter. Pudding Sauce Here is a good sauce for all kinds of steamed puddings: Bet half a cupful of butter to a cream, into which beat gradually one cuptul of powdered sugar. When the mixture becomes light and emooth add one unbeaten egg and beat rapidly for three minutes. Now add the grated yellow rind of one lemon, and about one-third of a nutmeg, grated. Then gradually pour baif a cupful of hot milk into the bowl. Beat well and serve at once. Deviled Beef in Batter Cut slices of underdone roast beef and lay them for an hour in a mixture of half a cup of vinegar, half a teaspoonful each of salt and made mustard. Turn them over and over several times to absorb the dressing. Lay on a ciean cloth; press with another to take up the liquid and dip in a batter made in the proportion of one egg, half a cup of milk and two tablespoonfuls of prepared flour, with a little salt. Fry in dripping or lard, drain oil the grease and serve. Hamburg Steaks Take a piece of beef from which you can remove all skin, fat and sinews, chop the meat up very tine, season it to your taste with salt and cayenne pepper, then add a small scarlet onion and a litt'e garlic chopped very fine ; wet your hands, and mold or form the mass into email, round steaks, about an inch in thickness; fry them in butter, first on one aide and then upon the other, place them upon a hot dish and pour a hot tomato sauce over tnem, or serve them simply with the butter in which they were fried poured over them. Beefsteak Pie Pare and slice six medium-sized potatoes, cover with boiling wat r and parboil ten minutes; then drain. Cut a quirt of cold pittces of beefsteak in e ices, with two slices of fat bacon. Line a baking dish with plain pate. Put a layer of meat in the bottom of the dish; then a layer of potatoes and bacon; sprinkle with pepper and salt, then more meat and potatoes until all is used up. Cut a tablespoonful of butter into bits, and put it over the last layer. Cover with plain paste, making an opening in the middle, aud bake m a quica oven. Make rich brown gravy, and serve with the pie Baked Apples With whipped Cream Pare and core a dozen large ones. Arrange them in a dub. and fill the center of each with sugar. Stick a clove into the sugar filling of each apple, and sprinkle a tablespoonful of sugar over each. Cover the pan and place it in a rather hot oven. Cook for twenty minutes, then remove the cover and continue cooking the apples until they are a de irate brown and are tender throughout. When they can be pierced with a brooin straw they have been cooked enough. Place them where they will cool, and whn they are cold arraoge them on a flt dish and serve with whipped cream. Or they may be served with p ain cream or soft custard. Swis Stew Four pounds of beef, four quarts of cold water, one tablespoonful of salt, one saltspoonfulof ravenne, one pint of potatoes, one pint of cabbage, one pint of sweet potatoes, two cupfuls of celery, two tablespoonfuii of chopped parsley, one pint of chestnuts. Cut the beef in small pieces and put on to cook in cold water; remove the scum; add the salt and cook slowly for three hours; then add the vegetables; cut the potatoes and celery iato small pieces and chop the cabbage; remove the shells from the chestnuts and parboil them before adding to the soup and remove all the brown akin ; boil until the chestnuts and vegetables are tender; add boi ing water aal!. liqnor boils awav. Saratoga Chips Although these can be found for sale in many erocsry stores, thet are not fresh and crisp like those made at home. Select large, perfect potatoes, peel, slice and throw into cold water for an hour, take out and wipe dry, slide onto a la-ge cloth, sprinkle with salt. Have ready a kettle of very hot euet Set a colander on a plate, throw over it a piece of cheese cloth, put in a few potatoes, stir with a long-handled fork so they will not stick together, takeout a slice and try It. When done it mould be a

light brown, if the fat was hot enough at first. Skim into a colander, then remove to a hot dish in the oven. Set the fat back while you put in some more potatoes, and proceed as before until all are cooked. A wire basket is very nice for frying them. Scrapple Take one liver of a hog (cut into pieces), the meat from the head and the scraps that will not grind up tor sausage. Cook until all the bones will drop out readily, then remove to your chopping bowl and cut very fine. Season with salt and pepper to taste, a tablespoonful of sweet marjoram and half a teaipoonfnl of sage. Return to the etnve, having strained the liquor in which it was boiled. The liquor ehouid be sufficient to more than cover it. Take equal parts of cornuieal and buckwheat flour and stir it until it is a thick tnush. Let it cook until the meal is cooked well, being careful not to let it burn ; then remove it and put it into shallow pans or dishes, the same as mush. It will keep quite a while in cold weather, hut to insure its keeping run lard over it, just as you do over eausaire. To prepare it for a meal, cut in dices, and fry the same as muh. It is a very palatable breakfast dish, with buckwheat cakes, fruit and coilee. A NEGRO BRUTE'S CRIME.
