Ia an address before the students of the school of agriculture, Ohio state university, F. A. Derthlck of Mantua. O.. eald: "I desire to discuss briefly the.tyle of horses best adapted to u.e upon the farm. What should be the weight of the horse for ordinary farm use? Speaking from an experience of twenty-live yeaf3. la which time I have owned and used upon my farm horses of all weights, from 900 to 1,600 pounds. I believe that a horse of proper form, weighing from 1,100 to 1.200 poundj, is th most serviceable. 1 would discard the l.fiOO-pound from) the farm, as I would the extra heavy wagon for ordinary use. It might be convenient a few times each year to have a heavy wagnn, but the objection of drawing It around the balance of the year would outweigh the advantage. So with the heavy horse. He would occasionally be of greater vahK but the balance of the year he would be supporting 4u0 or 3'0 pound of weight to his own and his owner's disadvantage. I would prefer three weighing l.OrtO each in pla.ee of two weighing 3.000. "Three hors?3 can be almost as conveniently used for heavy plowing, reaping, etc., as two, while the lighter team can better perform the majority of farm work, lsavlng the third horse for raking, cultivating and use of th family. "It sometime happens that, in breeding or buying, a cr.lt Is secured that develops Into Uh-r a fine carriage animal or a first-class road hrse. In either case, It la folly to ask suc'a a horse to plow. I once ownei a mare that wa.s woih anyother two horse.? I ever had for driving purposes. Sh possessed speed, spirit and etaying qualities. One spring, in the press and hurry, I put her in the team to flow. She was an excellent worker, but she never afterward possssdthat elasticity and grace of motion that hid been hr charm ar.d attraction before. We might as well expect a man who works in n stone quarry, handling bars, sledges and heavy stones, to write a graceful hand or to draw delicate lines. "A horse weighing l.fK'O pounds to l.S'O pounds will plow and do driving fairly well, hut my experience with this mare convinced m that tlir? is no such production as a geaeral-purpose horse. It is occaM'inai'.y tru that a given horse may be either a good plow horse- or a good road hör.-, but he can't be both at th,fame time. Ipn rr-?t farms there is generally fufnim employment of a lighter niture at which a road horse can pay his ke-p. Such a horse makes lif on the farm rnr? inviting Teach your wife, your son. your diughter to bve, care for and drive a really ko1 horse, or. as in order. l:t vmir wife d the teaching for the familv."

A Horse in Ilumano Journal. pnuni na n Fertiliser. C. Clark, who has just completed a full report on the subject of gypsum as a fertilizer for th University of the state of New York, says: "The advantage claimed is the increase it gives tj many crops, the ease with which It is applied, and the small amount which is required, also the cheapness of th article. The manner of action Ls said to be as follows, the plaster acting as an Indirect fertilizer: Ammonia is an alkali eatable of decomposing plaster anil farming with the acid th sulphate of ammonia.

deodorizer and on compost heaps as an absorbent of ammonia, and in the cities and towns to allay pungent odors of stables, privies and drains." FnmlKatlnnr 'Apartment. The proper way to fumigate a room ls to close the doors, windows, fireplace, etc., paste strips of paper over all the cracks. Fumigation by burning sulphur ls most easily accomplished. Two pounds of sulphur should be allowed for every room from ten to twelve feet square. It is better to divide it up and put i in several pans, rather than burn the entire quantity of sulphur used in one pan. To avoid the danger of tire, these pans shoud bo set on bricks, or in other and larger pans filled with water or with eand. After pouring a little alcohol on the sulphur, and properly placing the pans about the room, the furthest from the door of exit should be lighted first; the ethers in order. The operator will need move quickly, for no one can breathe sulphurous fumes with safety. After closing the door, the cracks around It should be pasted up, as was done within the room. Six hours, at least, are generally necessary to fumigate a room properly; at the end of that time it may be entered and the windows opened; and they should be left open as long as convenient, even for a week, if possible. After fumigation, a thorough process of cleansing should be instituted. At least, the walls and ceiling should be rubbed dry. Much th- better way ia to whitewash and ropapr. Th floor and the woodwork and the furniture should be scrubbed with a solution of carbolic acid, or some other disinfectant. Journal of Health.

v i n e. It will always pay to use all reasonable care to keep the pigs clean. To fa ten pigs most economically, begin as soon us they are farrowed. Never use a sow for breeding unless she shows the characteristics of early breeding. In th matter of size !t is r.ot difficult to breed up by making selections with that end in view. It is during growth that a ration that will tend to develop bone and muscle should be supplied. In some markets the extra large hogs will bring th best prices, while in othr the medium-sized hogs will sell the best. The hot sun affects hogs as much as any other kind of live stock. It is quite an item than to provide good shade in summer. Under the present conditions, when pure bred males can be secured at so I low a cost, no farmer can really afford to j use a boar of common stock. If piss are allowed to sleep In a damp or wet nost, in nearly all cases their growth will be checked, if disease in some form does not manifest itself. A pig. when born, is possessed of so much vitality and anything done or left undone is calculated to reduce this is irrecoverable, as vitality once lost cannot be regained. When a sow is to be bred for fall pigs especial care should be taken to get her into a good thrifty condition. So far as possible, a brood sow should always be gaining when bred. Generally, tho product of a first cross are good breeder and growers, and while the pork producer may not confine himself to one breed, it will not answer to go beyond a first cross. In fixing a place for the young pips separate from the dams, care should be taken in arranging the passage way to see that they had plenty of room, as forcing them to crowd through or under narrow places often injures the back, causes crooked legs or rupture. Farm te. To promote early maturity with any class of stork, g'M'd feeding must be practiced from the start to the finish. One advantage in ning good machinery on the farm is that, as a rule, it aids materially to lessen the cost of production. Under present conditions, when prices are low. it is only a good animal that will pay the cost of production, and give a fair profit. If you have a young horse teach him to work on horse hoe and cultivator without reins. With a well-trained hors more and better work can be done. Do not neglect the chores even If other work seems to demand your whole time. Study to save both steps and time in doing chores and do them in the same order every day. Carrots yiell about fifteen tons per acre in Scotland and sold for $15 a ton in ;ia5g.w last winter. Thy exceed the price of potatoes, although potatoes have more nutritive matter in them. Nitrate of soda is one of the most valuable of nitrogenous manures. It Is perfectly soluble and Immediately available for the nourishment of the plant. It goes rapidly down to the subsoil, and Improves Its texture. The New York law requires pure milk to have 12 per cent, of solids for legal sal?s. It also requires it to contain 3 per cent, of fat, and if it i.-? short In either of these materials of the standard named, though up in the others. It is held to be adtilteratf d. Do not forget the proper proportions of corrosive sublimate and water for disinfecting seed potatoes. Six or seven jrallons to each ounce of sublimate U about rieht. S. ak the whole tuber.s from one to two hours. The solution is a strong poison. , The Mennonites of Manitoba have gr .wn flax from year to year. They now sow it on land that has been cropped for years, receiving sure and fair remuneration for the same. It is raised for se"d only, for which there is always a ready market. Economy In feeding is the sine road to profit in doing it, provided you begin with good sto(k. Poor stock will often fail to return you th est of their food, and you will get nothing at all for your labor. Do not g into the business on such a poor fundation. Grow more leguminous crops. They furnish the eheaiest food for stock and the cheapest manure for the soil. They do this because they obtain from the air a substance necessary for plants and animals alike, which costs in the form of fertilizers and feeding rtuffs from lo to 25 cents a iound. Mrs. Harrison tells an exchange that buying bees by the pound ls a very satisfactory way to populate hives that are furnished with combs and honey. The pric" jer iound varies in different localities from 75 cents to $1 per pound, but a queen with them will be an extra charge, according to quality. It would be well to consider whether there is any profit in hauling your wheat to town and Killing it at the present prices and then buying corn and hauling it home to feed. Wheat itself is a good stock feed, as many men have been finding out thix reason, and If there is a profit in using it that way do not let any prejudice prevent you from doing it. Manure or fertility In the soil Is simply plant f.jod. liy keeping the Roil fine and mallow you make the food available, and jJace It within the reach of the young plant. The flnf white roots are the feeding mouths of the plant. They su' k up their food the same as the young" animal, and they thrive ami grow, with good care, or starve and die with neglect, just the same. The Dreeders Gazette rays: "A belief prevails quite Rrenerally that hor-ves which have broken into groin bins or grain fields, and have eaten a surfeit of grain, should not be given water. This is all wrong. They should have free access to water In order to rmlsten and soften the excess of grain in the stomach. Instead of an Injury water ls a positive leneut. Why do not more of our farmers r;iL-;e barley, and so relieve the wheat pressure a little? Most of that iwfl in the United States now comes from Canada, and the American farmer might as well have the money paid for it as to have this cash

The farmer who grows that for which there is an unsupplied market near him ought to be sure of a fair profit in doing It. The best way to plant ensilage corn is to plant thinly enough to produce a good growth of ears. Cut it when glazed, ear3 and all, and run it through the cutter into the silo, where it should be kept well covered until fed out. The old way of cutting .before the grain has formed has been wholly abandoned by good farmers. Wait until it has some sustenance to It before trying to make it into feed. Cattle and sheep should have a lump of rock salt to rc to when they please. They should also be able to get all the pure water they want, and just when they want it. Sheep may take but little when they feed In the morning, while tho grass is wet with dew, and this has led some to think there Is no need of having water in their pasture, but they should have the opportunity to get It when they want It. and they will want more or less. One great thin should be remembered, that the soil i3 intended to keep the carbonic acid In. and not to exclude th3 ah, as many suppose. This gas Is heavier than air. and it will seek an outlet down below rather than above. The great secret, then, is to keep the silo very tight below, stopping up every crevice where this preservative gas can escape. If this gas Is kept in the silo the ensilage will keep for a long time. Farmers' Home Weekly. The farmer who ls fattening cattle can usually make the most money by feeding only such crops as he grows on the farm. That is. supposing die grows a good variety. Good hay, corn ensilage, corn, oats, wheat bran and oil meal make up such a variety; but If he cannot grow all or nearly all of these he may find it more profitable to purchase such as are lacking from the list rather than to restrict them in variety. No kind of stock will ever do its best on a single item of food. The same kind of care is required In growing corn thac is to be put in the silo as if it were to be cut for fodder. The silo adds nothing to Its nutrit'ousness. and a large crop of stalks grown too closely to ear are, no better for the silo than they would be for feeding. It is too expensive handling enormous quantities of stalks that are mostly water. Tho quality of ensilage needs to be considered quite as much as quantity. With the best corn fodder put up as ensilage, a little clover hay with wheat bran or middlings should be used to make a properly-halai.ced ration. When Paris green first came Into use many fatal accidents were reported from the ignorance of those who used it, of the character of this poison. It is found that much smaller quantities are required .to destroy all kinds of insect life than were at first supposed to be necessary. For poisoning the codling moth as little as one pound of poison to 150 gallons of water is sufficient. When thus diluted it Is almost impossible for animals to be injured which pasture under the sprayed trees. The danger now most to be dreaded is in getting poison on the hands or in the mouth while it is being taken from cans or paper. Housekeeping: Illiitn. Oranges and lemons will keep well if hung in a wire net in a cool and airy place. When milk is used in tumblers wnsh them first In cold water, afterward ilnse in hot water. A drop of oil and a feather will do away with the creaking in a door ; or creaking chair. A little Hour dredged over a cake Defore Icing it will keep the icing from spreading and runnipg off. Hub patent leather tips of shoes occasionally with sweet oil applied with a bit of flannel; it will keep them looking like new. Put stale crackers In a shallow pan and set in the oven for a few minutes before using; they will be as crisp as if freshly baked. Iiread and cake bowds, or any dishes in which flour and eggs have been used, are more easily cleaned If placed :n cold water after using. Sick headache can often be alleviated, and even cured, by v. cup of strong coffee, without sugar, to which the juice of half a lemon has been added. After a room has been newly papered there should be ample opportunity given the paper to dry upon the walls before a fire is built in the apartment. To cure face pimples eschew very salt, rich or greasy food, and take a dose of magnesia occasionally. Also wash the face three or four times a day with diluted cologne water. Molasses rubbed on grass stains on white dresses or undergarment will take out the stains when the clothing is washed. Soaking In sweet milk will also remove grass stains. A small lump of sugar added to turnips when cooking will correct the bitterness which sometimes spoils this vegetable. If to be served mashed it will greatly improve them to put them through a colander. Use the asbestos mats under pots and pans on the stove to prevent burning the food. They are practically Indestructible, and conduct the heat perfectly. Thty cost but a few cents, and can be bought at all house furnishing hop3. Wash pongee in warm suds, and do not boil nor scald it; rinse thoroughly in several waters. Take down before quite dry, and roll up without sprinkling; in a half-hour It may be pressed smoothly with a medium hot iron. Avoid extreme heat for all silk underclothing, as it destroys the electricity. One should not sleep with either arm raised above the head. It ls a pretty gesture, as watched in the slumbers of a child, but it is better, if not so pretty. that the arms fhould lie by the sides than stretched upward. One knows, when one stops to consider, how fatiguing the attitude Is. if persevered In for a few moments, of reaching up Into a closet, or arranging high draperies at a window. What, then, must be the effect when kept up throughout a whole night? Valuable Ilerlpe Currant Preserves One p d of raisins, five pounds of currants, six I pounds of sugir.

Butter Sauce One teaspoonful of flour, four ounces of fresh butter, three tablespoonfuls boiling water, a teaspoonful of lemon Juice, a speck of cayenne and teaspoonful of chopped parsley. Work the flour. andj3uitec .to a cream and add gradually the boiling water. Stir constantly until it comes to a boil, but do not let it boil. Take from the fire, add lemon juice, cayenne, parsley and serve. Öponge Gingerbread A north of England article. Quantity One and a quarter pounds of flour, six ounces of butter, six ounces of soft brown sugar, one ounce of ground ginger, one pound of sirup, a little carbonate of soda, and half a pint of milk. Cream the butter and sugar together as for a cake mixture, then add the ginger and carbonate of soda, then the sirup, and lastly the milk. Mix well together. Grease out twenty-four tin?, fill In with a spoon, and bake in a moderate oven. When baked turn on to a sieve, and place the cakes upside down. These keep good for a week or so, and are very light. Baker's Helper. Candied Peels I have made candied lemon and orange peel for years, as good if not better than what we buy. Soak the peels in weak brine (a half-teacupful of salt to three pints of water is about right) for two days, drain well, make a thick syrup of granulated sugar and water, enough to cover the peels. Cook slowly on back of stove if there :s a heavy fire, stirring occasionally, to give each piece the same share of cooking and sirup. As the sirup boils down be very careful "about its burning, but boil all Into the peels possible. Take out cu plates, pouring what sirup remains oyer them. Put in a warm place to dry gradually. You are sure to be delighted with the result Good Housekeeping. Steak a la Duchesse Cut cold beef Into nice steaks, mince the trimmings finely, and to every one-quarter, pound of mince add a cupful of bread crumbs, half a teaspoonful of mixed herbs, an onion finely chopped, and pepper and salt to taste. Put all but the steaks Into a frying pan with an ounce of butter or beef dripping. Let it brown well and add a small quantity of gravy or water. Take one egg. a teaspoonful of salad oil.the sama quantity of white vinegar, half a teaspoonful of mustard,1 a dessertspoonful of grated horseradish and a pinch of salt. Mix very well, heat, but do -not boll. Hub each riece of steak with a little dripping or butter and broil over a clear fire. Place the broiled stoak'on'a hot dish, pour the sauce over and minee round. Serve. To Make French Nougat French nougat is one of the most delicious of confections, and this is the way to make it: Be sure the nuts are fresh and prepare a generous supply. You must have Brazil nuts, peanuts, hickory nuts and almonds, and also some walnut meats. Chop them all, but not fine enough to make them oily. Stew them as thick as possible on a shallow tin pan that has been well greased with sweet butter; mix In with the meats some candied orange and lemon peel and a half dozen finely chopped stoned dates. Boll your syrup, made of two pounds of sugar and a cup of water, until a drop hardens in cold water. Add a tablespoonful of strained lemon juice and then pour over the nuts; mark into squares while soft and let it cool before taking from the pan.

It Cannot Exprct Approval from True Democrats. "To the Editor Sir: In common with the universal sentiment of the democrats of this part of the state, we are disgusted w 1th the action of the senate on the tariff bill now pending in that body. "We are not only disguested. but we are astoni3hed t the want of honesty and common sense exhibited by that branch of our national legislature. "Sent to congress to legislate for the people, pledged to reform the tariff law now curbing the country, what have they done? Absolutely nothinc:. After the house of representatives with commendable industry had framed and passed a very fair tariff bill and sent it to ' the senate, all ready for action, and which ought and could have been passed and become a law within fifteen days, it was submitted to the finance committee and after a tedious delay it was retorted to the senate incumbered with numerous amendments more hi the interest of protection than of reform. Then after w.eeks of useless debate it had to run the gauntlet of a" caucus which plastered It over with another batch of amendments. And now they are spending about an hour tach day rejecting or adding new amendments, without any prospect of coming to a vote. "But it is said that the senate is doing all it can under the rules. What nonsense! Who makes and executes the rules of the senate? We in our democratic simplicity have always thought that a majority could govern itself and protect itself in a legislative capacity. Senatorial courtesy is alleged as a reason for the tardy action of the senate. Does courtesy require that we shall give our opponent a club and "then stand and take his blows indefinitely? If the senate is not, the people axe tired of listening to republican platitudes In favor of protection for days and weeks just to kill time. The democracy begin to fear that all is not sound In Denmark; that there are senators who are superlatively selfish who regard their own private interests tantamount to the good of the party and the prosperity of the country.

AE OF POISONOUS HERBS

FIV: OYS DEAD AD SEVEV, OTHERS SERIOUSLY ILU Little Jnniate of an Orphans' Home Partake of a Vrelable Supposed to Be Flatc I tool All Efforts to Save Their Live Futile. TARRYTOWX, N. Y., June 3. As a result of - eating a pwonous vegetable, which they had mistaken for flag root, five little inmates of the Catholic Sisters of Mercy home died in great agony during the night. The dead are: JAMES FORRESTAL. ten years old. JOHN CALLAHAN, agen ten years and five days. THOMAS CASSMORE, agen ten years and three months. AUGUSTUS POWERS, aged twelve years. JOHN DONNELLY, aged twelve years. Seven other inmates are seriously ill. The home is situated in Wilson park, on the hill back of Tarrytowru There are about two hundred children in the home. The boys were out playing In the park yesterday afternoon when one. of the boys discovered a pungent root, which, he declared after tasting, was flag rKt. About dusk ore of the bovs was taken with cramps and within an hour all who had eaten of the poisonous root were deathly sick. Such simple remedies as the sisters knew of were applied for the relief of the sufferers, but without avail. Then physicians were called from Tarrytown. The first to succumb to, the poison was the little fellow who had discovered the root. He died about 8 o'clock. Four others died between 4 and davlight and very little hope is entertained of saving the lives of the others who ate of the poisonous vegetable. The youngest of the victims Was not over five years old and the eldest not quite twelve. Most of the inmates are orphans. SHOT HIS SUCCESSFUL RIVAL Tragedy In Kentucky t he Tteul t of a Love Affair. LOUISVILLE, June S.-Xews of a terrible tragedy In Calloway county has just reached here. Two men. named Story and Cochran, were in love with a Miss Kelles daughter of ex-Deputy Sheriff Kelley. Last Sunday Storey and the girl were married. Cochran went to Kelley's house last night and, calling Storey out. they walked a short distance and without ai word Cochran drew a revolver and shot Storey in tiie mouth, killing him instantly. He then went to the house and, meeting Kelley, fired it him, the ball taking effect In his mowth also. At last accounts Kelley was still alive. Cochran made his escape and has not yet been caught.
