A large proportion of ammonia escapes from the manure heap and is dissipated unless the fanner used some substance for arresting and fixing the ammonia aa a ealt, or by absorbing It. There Is always a condition of fermentation in the heap, however email or great, and thoug-h Imperceptible to tha farmer, his loss of ammonia .occurs constantly and at all eeasona. It Is within his power to prevent much of the loss by the use of absorbants, euch as earth, marl, muck and the coarse materials of the ßtables. lolature also retards the escape of ammonia, as -water absorbs It and retains it, but when the water evaporates the ammonia 13 then liberated. The gTeater the heat generated in the manure heap by decomposition of the materials thereof, the more rapid the formation of ammonia and the greater the loss by escape from the heap to atmosphere, as ammonia is a very lierht gas and can only be retained by absorption or in combination a. a salt. I'lnafrr and A m mn 1 1. Land plaster, which costs about $S per ton for the best, is the cheapest substanc? that can be used for preventing the loss of ammonia. It contains about 32 per cent, of lime, 4H per cent, of sulphuric acid and 20 per cent, of water. It i.. consequently, a salt sulrhate of lim. Tne lime and sulphuric acid are chemically united, the water being in a crystalline condition. Yh'-n applied to the manure heap ?h plaster duts not directly unite wirb, the ga- -ous ammonia, but it has the power to absorb ases, and in that manner prevents loss. "When the amn.unia becomes a salt, however, such as carbonate of ammonia, and is brought in contact with the r!u-ter, t'.v.) salts are then In conjunction iulphate of lime and carbonate cf ammonia), the result being a breaking up of compounds and the formation of othe rs. Thus, the carbonic acid of the carbonate of ammonia gos ovfr to the lime of the planter while the sulphuric .acid of the lime goes to the ammonia, th? formations being carbonate of lim? sind sulphate cf ammonia, the ammonia being fixed as a salt. Hence it will tj noticed the plaster not only absorbs gaseous ammonia, but through the agency of its sulphuric a-Id it is enablel to break dwn conibim- ' tions and rearrange the atoms of different salts, the sevcml procst demolishing the entire .ontents of the heap. Direct IleMult on Land. Plaster applied to the land absorbs moisture and thu.s Kains nmmonia from the atmosphere, and also retains it when the ammonia is brought down by the rains to the soil. In this manner it supflies nitrogen to plants. It is also sparngly soluble, avA rro-.MJ-s lime to clover In that form, becoming thoiehv .1 special fertilizer for clover and other leguminous crop. Kairdt is also anther alueble substance that should le vfed in the heap and on the soil, but plaster h&s the advantage o? beir.j always line ?n-1 easily applied on the floors of stables, on the heap and on the land; ljt a small quantity being necessary. It is so cheap that an expenditure of ?2 viU be ample for air the plaster that imy bo required on an acre of lanJ. while th-? beiv.Mlts from Its use are ten or twenty time3 as great Rotation of Crop. Toor land means poor crops. A soil which is deficient in plant food can not ever be tilled to th very best profit, but it 13 within the reach of all to enrich their soil by turning under green crops, and this is one of th en-slrt and cheapest methods of applying: fertility; and it should not be overlooked that when vegetable matter is used for fertilizing something Is gained beyond the mere amount of plant food supplied. The mechanical effect upon the soil, by means of which the other plant food already there is made available. is cften hardly second to the direct grain of man Ii rial elements. One good point about green manuring is that it may be done at any season, and in so many ways, that some of them are open to all. Of course, clover is the great crop fur this use, &nd the seasons at which It may be sown and used are somewhat arbitrary; but there are a dozn other things-, some of which may be rown at any time that you happen to have a piece of land vacant, and they may be turned un3er with more or less benefit at any period of their growth. Peas are second to clover In addln? to the stores of nitrogen, and they may be sown the latter part of the- summer. arl yet make suflicknt growth to 1 a valuable manurial crop. Ttye sown even later may be turned under in sprinqr. Turnips sown in August or 5: ptembor and turned under ti? the bulbs begin to form are very valuable. They should be sown thickly, so as to make a perfect mass rf folia g?. Even weeds are good for green manuring, although we do not advise growing them fur that purpose.

Mal In;; Cheddar C'lieeae. A suscribcr, in a late issue of Hoard's Dairyman, gives the following good directions on this subject: After the milk is in the vat. heat to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. The lirst stop now is to ascertain whether the milk is rlr- enough to commence operations. This ran best be done by means of the Monrad test, which is as follows: Take 5 c. c. of rennet extract and dilute with cold water to 50 c c. Then take 3 c. c. of the 50 c. c. and add V0 c. c. of ml Ik at degrees Fahrenheit. Notice the time it takes this to coagulate. The milk should be ripe enough to that one-eighth-inch acid will develop in from two t two and one-half hours after adding the rennet to the milk in the vat. The maker must determine by experiment the number of seconds in which the tnilk in the test should coagulate in order to produce the- desired result in the vat. Suppose the rennet test coajrulates the milk In sixty seconds the lirst day and the maker rinds that his milk works too last, that is, one-eighth inch acid develops In !es than two or two and onehalf hours; then the following day he should ripen the milk, to, say, seventy seconds; or If the rr.dk works too slowly the first day then the second day ripen to fifty seconds. A few experiments will fix th number of seconds in which the milk in the test ehould coagulate. This may thn remain the same for several week3, but no definite rul can be stated for this, as the milk varies so under different circumstances. The apparatus for njikJns thi3 test may be procured at almost any housa where dairy supplies are furnished. Uq nougU rennet to coagulate the milk In thirty minutes. Cut as soon as it breaks chian over the finger. Cut as fine as kernels of corn. Hand stir for about fifteen; minutes before applying the heat. Take about forty-live minutes to heat the curd to 100 degrees or 102 degree Fahrenheit. After heating stir the curd enough to prevent matting till the whey is drawn. When one-eighth Inch acid is developed draw the whey as soon as possible. Wh"n the whey is all

drawn except enough to float the curd, tilt the vat and shove the curd down to the lower end of the vat. Put racks in the upper end of the vat, cover with cloth, and throw the curd upon it six Inches deep while still in the granular form. Cover with clo-th and keep the temperature as near SS degrees Fahrenheit as possible until ready to grind. As soon as the curd is niaued enough so that it won't break, cut It lengthwise of the vat and in strips six inches wide. Turn over to prevent pools of whey from

J settling upon it. After ten or fifteen

minutes turn again, ana conunue turning at intervals of ten or fifteen minutes. After turning twice begin to pile when turned, and continue this at the same Intervals until the piles are about four high. If the curd is gassy or pin-holy continue this process of turning and piling until the strips are drawn out thin and the gas expelled. But if the milk is in good condition and ripe enough there ehould be from one and a half to two inches acid developed in from two to two and a half hours from the time the curd Is put upon the racks. It 13 then ready to grind. After grinding, air thoroughly from twenty to thirty minutes. Grind again and salt two and half pounds to 1,000 pounds of milk. As soon as the harshness of the curd gives way to a mellow feeling put in press at a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Press lightly at first. About one-half hour before turning the bandage press up as tightly as possible. Leave in press twenty-foar hours. Mny on the Farm. A flock of sheep at thi3 eeason will keep down the weeds and grass on a small plot and will also distribute their droppings evenly over the field. Sheep are considered renovaters of worn-out land. Sow millet, buckwheat or Hungarian grass on wheat Und as soon as the crop Lb harvested (if the land is not also in clover) and plow the green crop under using lime in connection with the green manure. Do not cease planting peas, but as soon as the first early plants are above grow plants for the second crop, and follow with others. Peas can be had In abundance through the season with but little labor compared with their value on the farmer's table. It is useless to grow onions, no matter how rich the soil may be, if the rows are not kept perfectly clean. Weeds and grass will destroy an onion bed in short order, as onions prefer the land undisturbed by other plants, hence the ground must be kept loose and fine. Increased production has something to do with the prices of wool as with everything else. In lSQO the total wool crop of the world was 9öö.00ö.C0 pounds, and in lS&'t it was 2,000.000.000 pounds, or more than double. Th? American crop has increased 200 per cent, since 1SC0. The vines in France now have another enemy, and it may be brought here. It is a galley worm. or myriopod (Blanoulus guttulatus), which has been observed to invade the buds In numbers ranging

from five to ten in a bud, forming balls.

the size of a small pea. When planting corn it should be the object to secure not only the same yield per acre last year, but something more. It will cost no more to get an extra ten bushels per acre than it will the regular crop, if judgment is given the cultivation of the land. Grass and weeds are the agents whi:h reduce the yield. Prices and quality are wealth. Michigan produced 5.G'i0,0fl0 pounds of butter more than AVisconln. yet the latter state receiver J1.'"000 more for her product than did Michigan. It was labor anil extra care given thlt made the difference. Gilt-eds:e butter comes from no particular breed, but from the work bestowed upon it from the pail to the market. Ensilage is an important crop, and should not be overlooked. An acre of land will produce three times as much ensilage as of hay. It matters not what the relative feeding value may be, as the farmer who grows a crop of ensilage will re able to provide his cows-next winter with a sufficient ratlin as a change from the dry food, and will also retain the full (low of milk from his cows. A slight raking or harrowing given the land early in the season will be more effectual in destroying weeds and grass than ten times the labor that may be given after the weeds are established. Labor is an Item of expense and should be used economically by applying it at the right time ard in the right place. If every farmer would consider labor as something which should be used according to its value a letter system of cultiation would be the result. Too many farmers fail to have their manure well decomposed or "rotted." The manure cannot be serviceable until It is completely decomposed, and the process of decomposition must take place in the field if It has not occurred in the manure heap. In the field decomposition is slow, but in the heap it is rapid. It will pay to decompose the materials in the heap, as they will then be fine and In better condition for spreading, while the hauling will be easier and the manure handled to better advantage. The borer Is usually destroyed in May. If the miller or moth has Just deposited the eg? that produce the borer a wash made of one gallon of soft soap, four pounds of sulphur, and one quart or crude carbolic acid, thickened with fresh air-slacked lime, applied to the trees, will destroy the young borer, but later on the borer must be dug out of the tree.i with a knife or a nail Inserted into the bore, wist eh kills them In the trees. The wash should be applied six Inches below and six inches above the ground, and it will prevent attack. No solution will kill the borer after it enter3 the tree and has made progress.

All Around the Farm. An exchange tells of a man who took to the mill forty bushels of wheat, twenty bushol of oats and ten of corn and had thr-m ground and mixed for hog feed. He reported very favorably upon the results. Eoes never make an attack while in quest of honey or on their return until they have entered the hive, says a writer. It Is only in the hive and in its vicinity that we may expect them to manifest this Irascible disposition. The value of farming land in this country is greatest in New Jersey. In ISSI it averaged: New Jersey. $65; Massaohusttts, $50; Ohio. $4"; New York, $41; Vermont, J.ltJ; Maryland. $32; Wisconsin. $23. and in some western states less than $5 per acre. It should be seen to that a rack of clover hay under a dry reiof is provided for sheep and all kinds of cattle, where they may pass leisurely hours. There reed be no fear of eating too much; nor, if the racks are properly constructed, will muc"n food be wasted. The largest hop yard in the world is said to be in Yakima county, Washington, and contains 600 acres. There are several In that state of 300 acres and upward, while one in Alameda county, California, of 2S0 acres is to be increased by 400 acres more, which will give it the palm for size. Joshua A. Wheeler says in the Practical Dairyman: Fur late fall and early winter cow feed we have found nothing equal to green oats. They can be sown on wheat stubble from Aug. 15 to 25 in favorable seasons. They will be fine feed from November until the ground is covered with snow." Permanent pastures rr.ay be made of one sjec1e of grass only, but the feeding value is increased by having a variety. The variety should be selected with a regard to their habits, of growth as hardihood, durability, the part of the seaon during which they grow and the fee-ding value of each. It is very difficult to keep stabled animals in winter free from parasites. The hair Is thicker at this time, and animals in the stable are unable to dust themselves as they will when they have access to .the earth. As you are carding out the last year's coat of hair have a vessel containing kerosene emulsion

handy, and with a sponge or rag wash the necks of the animals you are grooming. A weak emulsion will kill all lice and not injure the hair. There are many good farmers who make the mistake of imagining all the money spent making the home beautiful and comfortable is so much lost, and they will invest thousands in barns and conveniences for stock and stock feeding and keep their families in cramped and uncomfortable quarters. To utilize the feathers of ducks, chickens and turkeys, generilly thrown aside as refuse, trim the plumes from the stump, inclose them-in a light bag, rub the whole a3 if washing clothes, and you will secure a perfectly uniform and light down, excellent for quilting coverlets and not a few other purposes. There is no nuisance on the farm greater than a muddy barnyard. It is not possible to give stock any proper care when one must wade knee-deep in mud to do it. nor axe cattle well off when compelled to spend any portion of 'their time standing amid such, filth. Stock keeping will always be unprofitable in such conditions. Not all sides of farming have a somber hue In England. It is reported that one man sold fifty acres of potatoes for $3,000, yet this is eclipsed by the receipts of a widow of Greeley, Col., from fifty-five acres of potatoes, which is repcrted by the Rural New Yorker to have been $8,000. Lucerne and a favorable climate plus irrigation is the explanation of this phenomenal success. Varieties of apples, pears and peaches are changing every few seasons, and a horticultural writer is of the opinion that when some strictly good kinds have been Introduced they should be grafted upon"" the old stocks. In this way the character of the orchard is constantly keeping abreast of the times. When a certain variety takes well and sells well It can be propagated rapidly over a great number of trees. Corn and potatoes may be greatly improved by growing the seed with wide spaces, leaving but one stalk in a hill. It is impossible to grow the best seed with several stalks in a hill. It will take but a little time to thin out an acre or half an acre of corn, and this will make an abundant supply of good seed. One-eighth of an acre of potatoes can be thinned in a few hours, and nothing can be more important than growing the best seed. Sugar beets are worth more to feed to cows for milk and butter than the prices which the sugar-beet factories offer for them for making sugar. So it Is not necessary that a farmer should be located near a beet-root sugar factory in order to make best growing pay. If he has the right kind of cows he can make more money feeding beets to them than he can sell them for in any other way. The same is true of most of the grain products of the farm. There is no harm in giving young pigs plenty to eat, provided it is the right kind of food for growth, with comparatively little of fat-forming material in its composition. The pig always begins right. The sow's milk is excellent for growth, and for the first day or two, while weak, the pig takes its food in small quantities and often. It is about the time that the pig Is one or two weeks old that its dam's milk becomes insufficient. The age depends on the size of the litter and the milk-producing capacity of the sow. If stunted at the time the sow's milk becomes too little for them the pigs never after recover all that is then lost. Hints to Housekeepers. The white of egg is found to be the best thing for reviving the leather seats of chairs. In packing gowns they will be found to crease very little if paper is placed between the folds. Cream should whip three times Its bulk, producing three quarts of whipped cream from one of unwhipped. When the edge of the rose-blanket becomes worn it may be neatly buttonholed with Scotch yarn or worsted to match the borders in color. Whalebones which have become bent and misshapen can be made "as gc.-d as new" by soaking them a few hours in water and then drying them. Tomato or lemon juice make bad stains, cften upo.i one'3 clothing. This discoloration can be easily and entirely removed by washing in a weak solution of ammonia. If your tea or coffee-pot has become discolored inside, put Into it a teaspoonful of baking soda and fill it two-thirds full of water and let it boll two hours. Wash and rinse before using. You should always remember, housewives, that a mirror will surely present a clouded surface no matter how diligently rubbed, if It is hung where the direct rays of he sun shine upon it. Nothing is more beneficial to the hair than dally and vigorous brushing, but this entails a sadly soiled hairbrush every few days. If the brush is dipped in ammonia water and then dried in the sun is will come out as good as new. Every housewife knows the vexation that comes with the discovery of a fresh spot (caused by a man's head or a child's hand rubbed against it) upon her pretty wall paper. These offenses may be entirely removed by powdered and slightly moistened pipe-clay diligently applied. Doughs that stick to rolling pin, board and hands in a hot kitchen should be set away till thoroughly chilled, but all trouble might have been saved by using cold fat, flour and liquid at first, and the texture of the dough would have been better. A neat contrivance is a goblet-cover to keep the contents of a glas3 of medicine, for instance, from dust. It is made of a circular pi?ce of cardboard, covered on the upper side with a crochetted mat in white zephyr, wdth a loop in the center by which to raise it. It is a favorite fad just now to cover a book with a scrap of brocaded silk, sometimes padding it by a layer of cotton wadding underneath. Two ribbons are attached to opposite sides by which to tie it together, and a dainty gift is formed which is inexpensive but rich in appearance. In boiling maoar.inl it is fatal to permit it to stop boiling for a moment until done. Have plenty of salted water Jn the saucepan at thi boiling point when the sticks are added, and when they are tender throw a glass of cold water to stop the cooking suddenly, and drain at once. After that it may be served in various ways. Vnlnnhlr It eel pes. Gingerbread One-half cupful of sugar, one-quarter cupful of butter, cne-half cupful of molasses, one cupful of sour milk, one teaspoonful of soda, two cupfuls of flour ginger and allspice to taste. Champagne Cake One cup of sugar, half a cup of butter, two eggs, half a cup of sweet milk, one teaspoonful cream of tartar, half a teaspoonful of soda. Mix with flour to consistency of cookies; roll out, cut in strips, roll them In powdered sugar, and twist into rings. Bake a light brown. Washington Pie One egg, one cupful of sugar, one-third cupful of butter, one half cupful of sweet milk, one and onehalf cupfuls of flour, one teaspoonful of baking powder, r.ake in round tin and when cold split and put in filling of Jelly or custard; use boiled frosting or sifted pulverized sugar thickly over the tcp. Beef Saute Heat some thick slices cf tender boiled beef In meSted butter. Keep the dish covered. When piping hot pour over a tablespoon ful each of mushn"m catSi p and Worcestershire sauce. Serve on hot plates. A tinman wl'l furnish you a flat strip of iron to place over the flame, to be set off when heated for the purpose of heating plates and platters. Banana Cream Pudding Melt one cupful of sugar in one pint of hot milk. Mix two tablespoonfuis of corn starch with cold milk, stir It into the boiling milk and cook fifteen minutes; add two tsblespoonfuls of butter; beat the whites of three eggs stiff, stir into the thickened milk and cook again for five minutes; turn into a- deep dish to cool. When ready to serve cover the cream wdth red bananas sliced. Mix a few grains of

salt 1 with half a cupful of powdered sugar and sprinkle this over the -bananas. S?rve with cream and jelly sauce made of one-quarter cupful of apple or strawberry jelly beaten into one cupful of thick cream. An Icing "Without Eggs An icing for cake that is popular among French and German cooks and that is economical because it oalls for no eggs. Is made from a half-pound of powdered sugar, a tablespoonful of boiling water, the grated yellow rind of an orange and enough orange juice to moisten it. Put the sugar In a bowl, then add the rind, next the water and lastly the juice and use at once. Scalloped Hallibut A slice from the thick part of the fish should be taken, cut at least an inch and a half in thickness. Butter an earthen baking dish and sprinkle a thin layer of crumbs on the bottom; season the fish with salt and pepper, lay It in and place bits of butter over, then another thin layer of bread crumbs. Pour over it a cup of 6weet cream, and bake slowly about forty minutes. Plum Pudding One heaping cupful of bread crumbs, two cupfuls of flour, one cupful of molasses, one cupful of stoned raisins, one cupful of suet chopped fine, one cupful of sweet milk, one tablespoonful of soda, one teaspoonful each of salt, cloves and cinnamon. Steam two and ona-half hours. Sauce for same: One cupful of brown sugar, one tablespoonful each of butter, vinegar and flour; flavor wtrh nutmeg. Beat all together.

and add one cupful of boiling water arid

let came to a boil.

Orange Float Soak one ounce of isirr1

glass or leaf gelatine in one-third of a teacupful of cold water till it is swollen out; add the same amount of Dolling water, the Juice of a lemon, sugar to taste, and the pulp and Juice of three organes; ruo it all through a seive, bring this pulp just to a boil, lift it off the fire, and when quite cold and nearly stiff, whisk it to a stiff froth, whisking in at the same time the stiffly whipped whites of three eggs. Line a glass dish with sliced sponge cake and pile up the frothed orange in the center. White Mountain Rolls Four cupfuls of flour, one cupful of milk, one-quarter cupful of butter, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, one-third of a cake of compressed yeast, haif a tablespoonful of salt, white of one egg beaten stiff; have the milk warm; add the butter, melted warm, not hot. salt, sugar, yeast and flour; mix well; add the white of the egg. the last thoroughly mixed in with the hand; let them rise over night; in the morning roll into shape; cut and fold over, or make in any other shape; bake in a quick oven after they have stood one hour. Sponge Cake Roll Among the many deserts of which sponge cake is the basis I know of none nicer than sponge cake roll, which is made as follows: For the batter use a dozen eggs, a pound of granulated sugar and three-fourths of a pound of flour. Grease a large biscuit pan, line it with greased paper, pour in enough batter to cover the pan -about half on inch deep, before baking. Bake it carefully, so as not to burn either side. Wring a "towel out of hot water, lay it on a board or table, turn out the cake upon it, and spread fruit Jelly on it while it is warm. Then roll it up like a valise pudding, pinning the towel around it to keep it in shape till dinner time. Serve it either hot or cold, with wine or lemon sauce. Bananas, sliced thin and heavily sprinkled with sugar, make a nice filling for this role. This quantity is enough for ten or twelve persons. You can halve the proportions for a household of five or six members.

BANK DIRECTORS INDICTED,

The Ball for FJnch Person Is Placed at 5.000.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 11. The grand jury this afternoon presented indictments for grand larceny against Directors H. T. Graves, Charles Montgomery and R. II. McDonald, jr.. of the People's home savings bank. An indlotment for grand larceny was also found against Frank V. McDonald, late assistant cashier of the Pacific bank. On the eve of its failure McDonald withdrew $14,000 from the Pacific bank and started for New York. He reported to the bank authorities that some robber broke open his trunk and stole the JH.Oi'ft. McDonald is in Japan. The bail for each person indicted was placed at 55.0O). R. II. McDonald, Jr., is still in Jail in default of $100,000 bail on his previous indictments. Tried and true is the verdict of people who take Hood's Sarsaparilla. The good effects of this medicine are soon felt in nerve strength restored, appetite created and health given. Hood's Pills do not weaken, but aid digestion and tone the stomach. Try them.
