Some of our best farmers are opposed to leaving the ground bare during the winter, claiming that something should be kept growing all the time to prevent the waste of available plant food. They alwaya advise spring plowing for all spring crops. We are willing to grant that there is probably some loss cf plant food, even on the flattest of land, from heavy rains, but It Is beyond all doubt in our minds that there are many cases In which it is best to plow land in the late fall or winter. Some clayey soils need the action of frost to render them fit for the planting, and when they do not incline to run together in heavy rains, nothing can equal frost as a pulverizer. It helps make an IdeaJ seed bed. In the case of potatoes early planting is usually the safest. In our and other states of like latitude the heat of midsummer is too great for this crop usually, and the farmer who gets his potatoes up the earliest rarely falls to get the best yield, as they do much of their growing before August. In a majority of cases early planting- is equally good for corn. Our most successful corngrowers like to plant early. Oats also do best when sown very early. When the land is left unplowed until spring, if there be much rain, some of the planting is delayed. In fact, it is the rule hat much land is planted later than is desired, and the result is a shortened yield. Again, In the case of any of these crops mentioned, a better crop can be raised on a rotten sod than a fresh one, unless we except corn on a late plowed sod that has a heavy growth of green stuff, and the summer proves sufficiently moist. The rule is that a rotten sod furnishes the most plant food and is the mst easily prepared for a crop and tilled. A stiff, timothy sod, turned ever in the spring cannot be put into good shape for potatoes. It w ill not rot rapidly enough during the summer t" meet the demands of the growing crop and is disappointing. Of course a clover Bod is always belter for potatoes anyAvay, but wt have gotten big yields off a timothy sod. Clover turned under In April will lie only partially rotUl all summer in the bottom of a -furrow. Experience teaches that th-? rotting: of a sod during the warm spells of wintei is beneficial to this crop. Some Sentinel readers doubtless practice fall plowing. To others we would say: If your fields will not wash, and if a heavy sod Is to be turned for potatoes or corn, try the experiment of turning half of it this fall or winter. You will thus hasten the planting and at the fame time test this matter for yourself. We believe that you will lik the practice, get better yields in most years, and thank us for urging you to undertake it. Handling n Colt. Discipline fhould begin in the stable when the colt is tied in his stall, says Dr. Hprague. Then he is under the best possible conditions for being familiarized wila the li.inic.ss ur.d nihil' trappiU'-J.-s. While tied with the halter. There is no better way to get the confidence of x'ne colt than to associate feed with an duly required of him. This is one important means of success cn;l'ed by those wno train horses for tr:;k pcri'ornrtnoes, as they make it a run? to carry lumps i.t sugar in the pocket as a ready reward when the horse undr training obeys the word of command. Whoever is to drill the colt will find he can better gain his confidence if he Is the one to feed him as well as put him in harness. If the best disciplinarian, or perhaps It will be best to say, the liest educator, cannot consistently be the feeder, then it will be well that he make the acquaintance of the colt while in hi stall, and make Iiis acquaintance agreeable. Teach the young horse entire submission to the restraint of the harness, for this very restraint is likely to be one source of fright when the colt imagines iie sees impending bodily danger. Hence we see young horses kick themselves l oose from anything to which they may lie hitched; nor are they relieved of the fright until they she'd the harness. Danger from this source can be averted more conveniently and eilcctively on the farm than anywhere ele, and the young horse that is made accustomed while yet in the hands of his owner to the usual sources of disturbance will go into market materially enhanced in value. Those city dealers who are enabled to pet top prices are those who recommend only su-h horses to tlieir customers as are evidently trustworthy, not only iinder ordinary circumstances, but also und'T the exciting conditions that arise in h populous and noisy city. (Jive the colt to understand he mut do what Is required of him, no matter how lng It talcs to do this. If .V H being driven and stops, pay whoa, and let him stand, (p t out .nd go forward, feel of the harness as though adjusting it. and If he is cheked up, loosen the check, pet in again, turn him a. little to the right or to the left and get him In motion again, not permitting him to realize exactly how It was done. It Is en Important secret, the making the act cf going agreeabl?. Our V.x pcrlntcnt Stntlona. There are several chief reasons why the work done at our experiment stations Is not of great value to the farmers, says the Hural New Yorker. Unfortunately, the majority of station workers are at the mercy of a lot of politicians so far as the p.-rmanency of their positions go. Any one on the "Inside" knows that this Is so. The experiments of Sir J. 1!. Lawes art- often spoken if as object lessens of what our etat Ion worker should do. These ?:- Jerlrnent are the results of many years CT careful work. They are valuable chiefly ber.tuse they give the average of many trials. How many men at our American stations can sr;.rt such worm with any hop of permittel to carry It out? Positions hi :wtt of our stations are too insecure. lwjle demand Immediate results, and itro not satisfied to wait for the slow wording out of some Important problem. This fact has led some of our Investigators into the bad haMt of startln? out to prove a certain thing by experiment, and thus give all thdr operations a flight bias toward the desired reüit. This Is popular but not accurate, nnd It leads to mucn conflict ' authorities. There ought to be come change In the manner of conducting our experiment nations, or the wh'de thing will fall Into disrepute. A Caution A lion t I'uluf. It 13 not an uncommon practice to dump the refuse and sef"igs from the paint pall upon the manure pile. In the barnyard, or any other convenient place. Prof. Snyder says that this practice Is unsafe and should be discontinued. The settlings of the paint may contain nough lead In some form to kill half a dozen cows, an accident which has occasionally happened. Cows have an

uncontrollable taste for red paint; they will eagerly and readily devour an old paint rag and have been known to lick the fresh paint from barns and freshlypainted fences. One cae In particular: A farmer lost a valuable cow, and at the time supposed an unfriendly neighbor had given her Paris green. Chemical examination showed it to be the result of his own carelessness in emptying the settlings of a paint pail In the pasture.

Pore It red Animal. The strictly pure-blooded animal? of the best quality are high priced. No breed can fit perfectly into every condition on but few farms. An infusion of the mixed blooded cattle of any locality Is likely to give stamina and vigor to the pure bred, and such stock can be preserved more cheaply and more easily. Therefore, it Is safe to advise the farmer to breed a variety of animals to suit his rartkular locality and wants. He should start with the best of the animals on the dam side which he already has, because these of necessity have in time adapted themselves to the food they have received, the land upon which they have grazed and the uses to which they have been put, and it is not good policy to introduce animals of different characteristics and qualities without very good and sufficient reasons. Success lies always In Improving that which is already at hand, and I know of no better way than to unite the successes of the plain farmer with his plainbred cattle to those of the more skilled breeder of good-bred animals. To the man who knows how to use them, the pure breeds are of inestimable value. To the man who is steadily improving his animals, success comes quickly, and he finds that he is not only possessed of grades, but of valuable families of cattle, sheep, swine, etc. To this Improver of domestic animals the pure-bred animal Is a necessity, if he would accomplish his purpose quickly and cheaply. Uut the pure bred to the man who has plenty of money and little experience Is a snare; to the man who has little money and little experience the grades and varieties of animals are better than pure bloods. Since all breeds and varieties have been formed by steady and slow advancement, so all valuable qualities In any breed, variety, family or mongrel animals, must be secured by the same slow, painstaking process. The plebeian animal can easily be raised In a few generations to the dignity of a variety, and some of the best specimens will form as good foundation stock for new breeds as those which formed the beginning of the breeds which we already have. The United States needs a far greater, number of breeds; the farmer needs an infinite number of varieties; In fact, every farmer should have a variety of cattle all his own, suited to his pastures, his feed bin. his skill, his climate and the purposes to which he desires to put them. The cattle "hould not be better thin their owner In time they will not be. Prof. Q. I. Roberts. The Advantages of White I'nwln. A correspondent of the Country Gentleman writes: "The selection of a variety Is also a matter of importance, for I would recommend only one variety to each farm, as there is then no danger of a mixture of breeds. This selection should not be made a matter of sentiment, but with a practical end in view, and the fowl that combines the most of the necessary qualities is the one to select. Such a fowl may be found in the white Plymouth Kocks and the white Wyandot tes. both being good layers, hardy, handsome, and with their yellow skin and yellow legs are. when well matured and in good condition. tht best of market fowls. I mention th varieties because when dressed they show none of the dark pinfeathers found in the colored varieties, and as we are looking for a fowl combining the most practical qualities. I take this feature Into account. White fowls are also said to furnish more delicate meat than colored ones, another matter to consider in the choice, and as they usually breed to feather there Is not so mt: h t- contend with as In breeding parti-colored birds, whore, unless fortunately mated, a certain, proportion are off in color and consequently unsatisfactory. White fowls are attractive to look at from an aesthetic point of vlw, and their cleanly appearance when about the farm, in combination with bright red faces and combs, makes a pleasing picture to owners, visitors and passers-by. White fowls can also be seen at ions distances from home, and if Inclined to wander can more readily be found. I call to mind a lover of fine poultry, who at one time kept nothing but white fowls, white turkeys, white ducks and white pigeons, and he has frequently said his country place was never so attractive as when stocked In this manner. A desire to experiment with new breeds broke up the combination which, at last acounts had not been renewed." The Hired Man. A Massachusetts farmer believes that he has a solution for a vexed question. We let our farm readers Judge for themselves. Says he: In the matter of the hired man it strikes me there is but one way to solve it. and that Is for farmers to do as other employers of help have done. First let them recognize the fact that, other things being equal, a married man is the best help, ana lot them encourage the workers on the farm to become family men by furnishing them with suitable tenements in which to live. Second, let them provide each man with work the year round, as no hired help worth having likes to work six or seven months in the year and then loaf the rest, especially if a family is dependent upon him for support. At the present time ill almost all kinds of business employing any considerable number of hands, and especially in those kinds In which most of the work Is done by the "piece," there is a class of men known as "tramp help," dissolute. Immoral characters mostly, who work for a few we-ks in a place, then go on a spree, and if they escitK- the lockup, usually lose their jobs and. when sulliciently sobered off, start on another tramp In search of something to do. They are not lazy end opposed to work like the genuine tramp, but their drinking habits make them unreliable and spoil what might otherwise ! first-class workmen. People employ them when business is driving and they are short of help, but when work gets slack they are the first to get their walking tickets while the resident family help is kept. Under the present too common system of hiring farm help for or.ly six to eight months In the year, and furnishing no houses for married employes, what else can farmers expCCt but "tramp help" and the consequent evils Incident thereto?

green hops hang thickly among the dark leaves. Here are a few favorite uses for the pretty cones: A bag of hops steamed and applied to the seat of a pain will give speedy relief. A hop pillow is one of the best remedies for insomnia, if not the very best. Hop tea Is very efficient in cases of nervousness. The doctor tcld me to put a few hops in a teacup, fill with boiling water, cover closely and let stand until cold. This

was obtained. I did not measure the quantity of hops steeped at one time, but should think a tablespoonful. It is said that the young shoots are delicious cooked and served like asparagus, but this I cannot vouch for, as we have never been willing to sacrifice our shade to the experiment." ABOUT WILI GAME. II ott to Cook QanilK, Prairie Chlrkrni, Grouse aud Partridge. There is much confusion in the use of the word "pratridge" In this country says the Philadelphia Record. As a matter fact, the only bird that has a right to the name is the English partridge, which does not exist in this country. Our ruffed grouse, which Is called in the South pheasant, and in the North partridge, is the bird sold throughout New England. The northern quail is the southern partridge. The praire chicken, or pinnated grouse, is a bird very nearly the size of the rutted grouse. It Is said that the praire chickens were common enough all over New England when the country was first settled, and a few of them are still found In Martha's Vineyard, though the majority are brought from the western pairies hence their name. The ruffed grouse is a much slyer bird than the palrie chicken, and 4s not so easily trapped; so that it has never been cleared out of the country, and is found today in the woods of Connecticut and the East, as it was in the days of the colonies. The difference in the flesh of these birds is very marked. The palrie chicken has a dark flesh, rich and gamey, while the flesh of the partridge, or ruffed grouse, Is more delicate and white in color, like the meat of a chicken. Like all white meat, the partridge requires to be thoroughly cooked; while the dark meat of the pinnated grouse is served like all game, rare. It requires just about forty minutes with a quick fire to roast a ruffed grouse or American partridge so that It is fit to eat; while the pinnated grouse or palrie chicken requires but twentyfive or thirty minutes. Hoth birds are about the same size. To prepare one for the table, pick it carfully. Do not scald it, but pick it dry. Singe it. Remove the wings, which are apt to be tough. Look over it carefully for any shot or pieces of feather which may have been carried into the flesh when the bird was shot. Hirds that are killed by inexpert huntsmen are apt to be torn with shot, making it very troublesome to dress them. The neck of the partridge as well as that of the prairie chicken is cut off close to the body; the skin of the neck Is left on to assist in trussing the fowl. The toes are often trimmed and the legs left on and scraped. The birds may now be drawn. Use your fingers to loosen the internal parts around the threat and neck, and then draw the bird entire through an opening made from the leg to the vent, in exactly the way in which you draw a chicken. When this is done, wipe thar bird htoroughly with a cloth and cold water, Inside and out. and lard it with a row of lardoons down each side of the breast and on the thighs. Rub the bird freely wih butter and dredge it very lightly with flour. Lay It on Its back in a dripping-pan without a rack and without water in the bottom of the pan. A pair of these birds is considered sufficient for a family of six. Do not forget th- difference in the time Of cooking required by these birds. A prairie chicken would be dry and flavorless If cooked the length of time required for a partridge. Either bird Is proierly served with bread sauce, garnished with a little watercress or parsley. Neither of these birds, indeed no game bird. Is served with a r tufllng. but some cooks put half an onion Inside of grouse while it Is roasting, but remove it when it is serve!. When the word 'grouse" alone Is used In the markets, it always means a prairie chicken, but the rulTed grouse Is called "partridge." Housekeepers Should learn by experience to distinguish between these birds and to cook them as they should be cooked. After a heavy, dense fall of snow, which covers up the underbrush, it la not always safe to buy partridge, as at this time the bird Is likely to feed from necessity on the leaves of the mountain laurel and other evergreens, which are filled with prusslc acid, like the peach leaf and the almond leaf. This acid, apparently, Is not entirely expelled by the cooking In the case of the partridge as several serious poisoning cases are on record from this cause. Valuable Recipes. Sure Death to Roaches. All other means of exterminating roaches having failed, our correspondent is recommended to try this: Equal portions of corn meal and red lead, mixed with molasses and spread on plates easily accessible. They love it, and will eat it and die. Breakfast Puffs Beat two cupful of flour, one cupful of milk, and one cupful of water together. No salt, no powder, no eggs. Heat the gem-pans, put a bit of butter In each, let It melt and pour In the batter. The butter will rise round It, making greasing the pans unnecessary. There should be one dozen crisp gems. Squash Pie. One and one-half cupfuls of squash after It Is sifted, two cupfuls of boiled milk, with butter the size of a walnut melted in it, four eggs beaten slightly, one cupful of sugar, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one-half teaspoonful of extract of almond. This makes two pies baked on deep plates. Welsh Rarebit. Cut thin slices of bread, remove the crust and toast quickly: butter It and cover with thin slices of new, rich cheese. Spread over it a little made mustard, and place on a plate In a hot oven till the cheese Is melted. Cut It into square pieces and serve at once on a hot platter, as It quickly spoils when It becomes cold. Small Apple Pudding. Core and pare as many tart apples as need -d. Cut out rounds of pie crust, set on the apple, fill the core's place with sugar and spice, fold the crust over the apple and bake. A molasses sauce made of a cupful of molasses boiled with a piece of butter and a dash of vinegar, just a little thick, is very nice with this pudding. Pastry for One Pie. One cupful of St. Louis flour, one-quarter cupful of lard or beef drippings, one-quarter cupful of butter. Ire water to mix. Have the butter and lard cold and hard, put them with the flour in a chopping tray and chop until very fin?, then add the water, roll out once, roll up In a tight roll, then cut In two parts for the two crusts, Stand on end and roll out once more, not too thin. "Enchantments." Whip to a stiff froth the whites of nine eggs, add to these the finely-grated rind of six lemons. and nine tablesixxmfuls of I mi car well sifted. Place a. sheet of wet j letter paper In the bottom of a pan, or on a sheet of tin, and with a spoon drop the mixture in drifts. Sift the sugar over the top of each, and bake in a moderately heated oven. Make boiled Icing, and divide the quantity equally, coloring half with fruit coloring. Put on bottom of these, and stick two thus together, using up both kinds of Icing. Jam or Jelly can be used instead, if it is preferred. A West Virginia P'e Six eggs, one cup of butter, one cup of sugar and one teaspoonful of vanilla. Beat the yolks until pale and very light, cream the butter thoroughly smooth, but don't let It become oily. Add the sugar to th yolks, then the butter. Make a rich fluffy pastry. (This quantity make, two pies). Line the pie-pans with pastry and divide equally in the two the mixture. Bake slowly, and when done add the well-beaten whites, to which Is added one and one-half cups of sugar and a little vanilla. Spread over the top

of the pies and bake to a light, soft brown. Sprinkle over top, when about to serve, a little sugar or grated coacoanut. Poor Man's Cake Two cups of sugar, one-eighth of a pound of butter, rind of one lemon, one cup of milk, two eggs, one teaspoonful of baking powder, three cups of flour. Beat the sugar and butter together, then the eggs, and add the milk, then the flour and the baking powder (sifting it in last of all.) Mix well, and bake In a moderately-heated oven. Cost, 20 cents, and It is very nice. This makes a nice cake pudding, eaten hot, with sauce of any variety liked. Try' it, and you will do so many times. Snow Custard. Half a rackage of Cox's gelatine, three eggs, two cups of sugar and Juice of one lemon. Soak the gelatine one hour In a teacup of cold water, add one pint boiling water, stir until thoroughly dissolved, add twothirds of the sugar and the lemon juice; beat the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth, and when the gelatine Is quite cold, whip Into the whites, a spoonful at a time from half an hour to an hour. Whip steadily and evenly, and when all Is stiff pour Into molds, or in a dozen

egg-glasses, previously wet with cold water, and set in a cold place. In about four hours' time it may. be turned out j into a glass dish. Make a custard of i one and a half pints of milk, yolks of three eggs and the remainder of sugar, flavored with vanilla and pour this over the molds. Charlotte Russe Some lat?v's fingers, three-quarters of a pint of cream, half an ounce of isinglass (I strongly object to gelatine), two dessert spoonfuls of curacoa, an ounce of white sugar, a large sponge cake, and the white of one egg. Take as many fingers as will line the bottom and sides of the mould, slightly moisten with the white of eg?;, and lay them a little over each other all round. Now do the same on the bottom, making them fit closely, and place the mould in the oven for five minutes to dry. Whip well the cream and liquor, adding the isinglass and sugar dissolved in Just sufficient water to dissolve It well not more than a tablespoonful beat it well Into the cream. Then cut a slice from the large cake to put on top and that must fit very tight. Put the cream into the mould, press carefully into the piece of cake, and set on Ice till It Is needed. If that does not turn out solid the fault will not be In the recipe. Frozen Plum Pudding Here is a novelty plum pudding for a summer dessert. Mrs. Rorer gives us in Table Talk directions for making this Christmas dainty in season for August. Put one pint of milk in a double boiler; add to it one cup of stoned raisins; cover the boiler, and stand over a moderate fire f v thirty minutes. Now add to this half a jKiund of almonds, that have been dried and grated, a quarter of a pound of citron shredded, and, if you can get It. a quarter of a pound of candled pineapple; let all these soak together for one hour. Put a pint of cream now In a double boiler, and add to it nine ounces of sugar. .Stir until the sugar Is dissolved. Take It from the lire, and add one pint of uncooked cream and raisin mixture; add a teaspoonful of vanilla, and the grated rind of one orange and one lemon. Turn this mixture into the freezer; stir constantly until the mass Is well frozeru Stand away for two hours. Neapolitan Pudding Onto pi nit of orange Juice (requiring seven or eight medium-sized oranges), one-half box of gelatine, the white of one egg. one cupful of sugar, one-half cupful of cold water, one cupful of boiling water, a few drops of rose-colored fruit extract, and the grated rind and juice of one large K-mon. SoaJi the gelatine in the coll water, add the boiling water, the juice of oranges and lemons and the sugir. Strain and divide into three equal parts, pouring one-third into a flat-bottom-d dish and setting away to harden. To the second third add a few drops of the coloring extract and set this also in a cool place. Let the remaining portion get thoroughly cold, and as soon as it thows symptoms of forming Into jolly, add to it the beaten white of egg. and whip until light and simngy. Pour this Into a small mould, which has been dipped in cold water, and set upon ice for several hours. Remove from the mould, cut the colored jelly into small cubes, and heap about the base.

MARKET REPORTS.

CHICAGO, Nov. 27. After a marked decline, the wet weather and bearish rumor3, wheat rallied today on the small increased Iii the visible, and closed c higher for May at lc higher for December. Corn was held up by wheat, it was claimed, and provisions ruled higher on free covering by shorts. Wheat began the day with a loss from Saturday's closing price of ?se for May on the breaking of the drought in the winter wheat belt. The Duluth receipts were again a disturbing element. First they were reported at 205 cars, and later corrected to 67.", making a total of 1,201 cars from the Northwest, which caused a further decline, although the total for the week shows a falling off in the receipts from the Northwest. A private dispatch gave Russian shipments for the week at 5,750,000 bushels, and this big showing was also a bearish influence. Prices ruled lower for some time. Fear for the effect of the expected failure of a London financial institution was also given as a reason for the early collapse of the bull feeling which existed Saturday. The rumor was current gossip all day but the visible supply statement, although still incomplete, gave indications of a smaller increase than had been expected, and prices began to advance. When the full returns showed an increase of but 530.000 bushels, the price took an upward shoot and in ten minutes May had renched 69' fee. and later went Uc higher. Then Pardridge and Leeming became free sellers, and a reaction of r;c took place at the close. May opened at 6S3ic, dec-lined 'c, rallied 'flc, advanced -c, sold up aHc, lost ic, advanced ae and reacted So to close at 43,,J,fi 49'ic. Corn was dull after opening with May and gained another c. Receipts, 402 cars against the estimate of 425. For tomorrow S40 cars are exacted, and this had the effect of driving prices back to the opening. The strength in wheat, however, prevented further decline, and May closed where It opened. Oats experienced a moderate local trade and fluctuations were in sympathy with corn. May started Je lower at SOc, sold up c, and reacted 'ic to close c higher than yesterday at 307gC. The provision market opened weak With receipts of hogs larger than the estimate and prices at the yards 5?t 10c lower. The Anglo-American company bid freely at the low figures and with Shorts covering prices advanced sharply, but the Cudahy packing company became sellers of pork ribs and a reaction followed. The gain was not lost, however, and closing prices were higher all around. As compared with last night January' pork is 30o higher; January lard, 10c higher, and January ribs 10c higher. Freights were slow but a little vessel room was taken at 2:lic for wheat, 2Vic for corn, and 2'4c for oats to Buffalo. Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat. 140 cars; corn, S10 cars; oats, SuO cars; hogs, 24,000. The leading futures rangen, as follows: At tides. Open. High. Low. Close. Wiiwu.

Berry's Chicago advices report: The visible supply figures were a surprise to the trade today and are responsilor the advance recorded in wheat. This seems to corroborate reports from the Northwest and suggests also an increased grinding by millers. Cash wheat up there is nported in brisk demand, December in Milwaukee being only fcc under May. Nearly all the news early was rather bearish and the market opened lower In consequence. Although rains have broken the drought, yet should the cold weather that is predicted for Wednesday or Thursday materialize with no protection to fall-sown wheat, the damage might le severe. Russian Wheat shipments are airaln large, amounting to nearly live and three-fourths million bushels, but the fact thflt cur grade of wheat in so superior to theirs. Recording to a comparison made at t-sin Krancisco rcently, tluse shipments did not have their usual effect on the price. Just at present the marki-t s-ems strong on Keneral principles.. News statistically mav be bearish, but the sentiment has changed and now seems to favor higher prices. We think the low price has nttract'M attention of men with capital, and fliould the market advance suiiicleiitly to scare shorts a much higher range of prices would undoubtedly le the result. Thre was an Increase? on passu if but a ilecrruso In lOnglish visible of 1,2TiO,m bu more than oITaet this. Close was easi r. corn was strong early on rains and som short covering, but soon became dull and lagged during most of the session. It whs thought any good reaction In wheat would affect this market, but the situation. In a speculative view, while not particularly bearish. Is not considered strong enough to cause any material advance at present. However, it Is a fact that the May Option Is considerably irf-low the usual carrying charges. The advance in provisions was due to lilH-ral buying by a local packer of January product. The future course of the market will probably depend largely on tue receipts of hogs. LOCAL l.ltAIV .MARKET.
