FARM AND GARDEN FEEDING FOR EQG& Oreeo Bom* Boot* All Other • atueei ms Wloter Pood. The profit is always sure when every detail is correct. Cheap food must not be estimated by the price paid for It In the market. The cheapest food for the poultryman or farmer is that which gives him the largest number of eggs. It matters not what the food costs, so long as the eggs correspond. It is the product by which we should measure and estimate. Green bones are not used aoextensive* ]y as they should be because grain can be obtained with less difficulty and at a low cost, but as egg-producingmaterial the bone is far superior to grain; nor does the bone really cost more than grain in some sections. The cutting of the bone into available sizes is nowrendered an easy matter, as the bone* cutter is within the reach of all. Bones fresh from the butcher have more or less meat adhering, and the more of such meat the better, as it will cost no more per pound than the bone, while the combination of both meat and bone Is almost a perfect food from which to produce eggs. If the fanner can got two extra eggs per week from each hen in winter, he will make a large profit. We may add that if the product of each hen can be increased one egg per week only, in winter, that one egg will pay for all the food she can possibly consume, and it therefore pays to feed the substances that will induce the hens to lay. If the hens are consuming food and yet producing no eggs, they will cause a loss to their owner; and this happens every winter on a large number of farms. The hens receive plenty of food, but not ; of the proper kind. A pound of cut green bone is suffi* j cient for 16 hens one day, which means that one cent will pay for the bone for that number of fowls. If one quart of grain be fed at night to 16 hens, and one pound of bone in the morning, it should be ample for each day in winter. In summer only the bone need, be given. Such a diet provides fat. starch, nitrogen, phosphates, lime and all the substances required to enable the hens to lay eggs. As an egg is worth about three cents in w inter, it is plain that it is cheaper to feed bone than grain, as the greater number of eggs not only reduces the total cost, but increases the profit as well. The bone-cutter is as necessary to the poultryman as his feed mill. It enables him to use an excellent and cheap food, and gives him a profit where he might otherw ise be compelled to suffer a loss. It i* claimed that a bone-cutter pays for itself in eggs and really costs nothing. Bone* are now one of the staple articles of food for poultry, and no ration should have them omitted. They are food, grit and linie, all combined in one. and the hens will leave all other foods to receive the cut bone. If cut fine, even chicks and ducklings will relish such excellent food, w hile turkyes grow rapidly on it. To meet with success requires the use of the best materials. and green bone beats all other •ulAtancrs as food for poultry.— Poultry Age.

HOUSE FOR POULTRY. It !■ Well-Arranged and Has Pleat? «f Hun Hah I. The diagram shown below illustratea the ground plan of a poultry-house so ararnged that it will receive the sun’s rays from early morninp until late in the afternoon, and is designed by Dr. L. B, Lucas, of Indiana. The house is composed of three rooms, separated by two partitions. An arrangement for separating the layers and non-layers is as follows: Openings are cut in the r T

The hens are placed in one end room aud those which lay will enter the open door of the nest-box. the door closing and opening one on the opposite end of the box; when the hen goes out into the middle room, she closes the door behind her and opens the one through which she entered the nest-box.

POULTRY PARAGRAPHS. As soon as a brood of chickens la hatched burn the old nests. Turkeys, geese and ducks are more subject to tape worm than are common fowls. See that the water supply is pure. A considerable economy can be effected by feeding to your fowls scrap* from the table and refuse vegetable# and fruits. A dock of 50 hens, well tended, shoulC give a net profit of $50 a year. How can you make the same capital and la bor pay more? One advantage in coaxing your h**n» to lay in winter is in their becomio| broody early in the spring, and in onlj that way do we get the early pullet for the laying season the next fall. Finely pulverized clay makes a better dust bath than pure sand, and if selves a bate* purpose, too, iu mixinj with the hen manure to prevent iu getting into clods and to absorb ammonia as the manure la decomposed.-* Farmers' I nion.

STICK TO LIVE STOCK. Cftttlt Industry la Indeed the SlfH Atm •* AgrlealUre. The wheat grower who points with aatialaction to the advancing price on this cereal can be matched easily enough by the cattle-grower when he notes the strong demand and advancing price for feeders. From every market come reports of the greatest activity in the demand for feeders. Carrying coals to Newcastle is not a circumstance to shipping Canadian cattle f*om Buffalo to Neb males, to be fattened on the corn that has been grown In that state. Iow-a at d Nebraska men are swarming to the market and buying everything that can eat corn; $5.13 Is said to have been paid recently for eastern-grown feeders. Anything that wears hair and has n cloven hoot is quick sale at strong prices at all markets in the west, and the demand is such that it bids fair to increase the current of slockers and feeders from Canada and the east toward the corn belt—a very anomalous condition of affairs. The stock farmer should not permit himself to be rushed Into wheat-grow-ing. He meets far less competition In the markets of the world than does the wheat farmer, and year in and year out his returns are more certain and remunerative. The steady advance of values of cattle, swire and sheep has poured dollars into bis pockets, and every condition discernible in the future points to a further appreciation in value of the animals of the farm. Stock raising is the right arm of agriculture. It requires only intelligence of a low degree to tickle the earth and garjieT i the grain. Cheap lam’s and cheap labor j can grow wheat. Brains and fertile | soil are requisite to stock growing. The man who abandons stock farming for wheat growing under the present circumstances has certainly studied the situation to little purpose. The experience of years lias taught that corn, j gross and live stock bring more certain and more profitable returns than graiu growing, which Impoverishes the soil and does not enrich the farmer.— Column's liural World. LABOR AND LUMBER. Uoth Are Saved by t tlllalng the Space Indrr Stairways. As the world grows older and timber icareer the advisability of making use of every available inch of room under one roof should be less and less ignored. The space under the stairway in most stables, however, is worse than wasted,

UTILIZING WASTE SPACE. in that it is apt to be made the dump In# place for innumerable odds and •x,ds, resulting, before one hardly realizes it, in a heap inextricably confused. Owing to this fact, 1 present the accompanying illustration, which shows how to employ advantageously the space, and that, too, to the addition of stable conveniences. The space should be boarded up with good stuff, matched pine preferably, and that portion having the greatest height made Into a harness closet. As for the remaining room, it is generally best to convert it into a grain bin, having one :>r more compartments. Thus it is that sne can derive great, advantages at trifling expense, and, above all, suffer ao inconvenience, or even loss of room, about the stable.—Frederick O. Sibley, n N. V. Tribune.

SCIENCE OF MANURING. t'crttltaera Should Hr Kept >r«r the Surlier of the Soil. Repeated experiment has proved that the practice of applying large quantises of manure to the acre on a limited lereage, making it necessary to leave l.ueh of the laud unmanured, does not pay. Not a few farmers never ppply .ess than 20 tons of stable manure loan icre, saying that they prefer to do well a hat they do, and let the remainder of the land take its chances. Twenty tons £>f mauure on one acre, plowed under for a spring crop, makes the soil richer for years—no doubt about that—but it will not improve the productive power of a farm'nearly so much as the same amount of manure used as a top dressing on three acres, providing clover # grown with this supply of plant food. It is poor farming to keep up a few acres near the barn with the eutire supply of stable fertilizer and let thin fields fail to make heavy sods. Manurial crops are the chief dependence on a majority of farms, or should be, and enough farm manure should be used to assist thin soils wherever found, so that all the fields may increase their supply of vegetable matter aud be permanently improved, and then any additional supply can be safely used to enrich the pet field from which one wants a banner crop. Granting that there are exceptions, it is the rule that manure should be kept near the surface of the soil, should be applied more frequently aud less heavily, aud should be used to insure a growth of some fertilizing crop. -Rural World. Carrots ttood for llorsrs. Of all roots with which horses are tempted, the carrot, as a rule, is the favorite, and perhaps the most beneficial. It is said to be somewhat diuretic in its effects, and to exercise a 1 salubrious Influence on the skin. Cer* I taiu it is that a sick horse may be ! coaxed into eating carrots when disin- j dined to partake of other nourishment, and the greatest benefit results. For the ailing horse carrots are most valuable as an article of diet, and a few may be given with advantage even to a horse In healthy condition—Prince Ed wan! j Island Agriculturist.

FIRST WOMAN CITIZEN, Her Sturdy Lads and CleverT asses Become Prominent Citizens. Kaowa mm the “WHew Rru^-Wu e Clever lutaen Women—Short Sketch mt Her Life «»4 What Soane of Her Children Ac compliehed. From the News. Indiana poll*. lad. Hundreds of thousands of men of foreign birth have taken out papers declaring their citizenship in Indiana since that State was admitted into the Union in 1818 without creating remark or comment. It was a different matter, however, when along in the forties the first woman of foreign birth applied for and received papers ofcitizenship after declaring in set form that she renounced all allegiance to every prince or potentate on earth. This “first woman citizen” was an Insh widow who settled in southern Indiana with her progeny of sturdy lads and elever lasses upon a farm which she had bought. She had taken out naturalization papers in order to manage her property to better advantage, and for the further purpose of starting her family as true Americans with a full understanding of the advantages and responsibilities of American citizenship. “The Widow Ryan” as she was known in Daviess County. Indiana, was a great woman with a clever business head ana left behind her those who grew to be worth/ men and worthy women, and who have left their impress upon the State. One of these sons James B. Ryan became treasurer of the State of Indiana, and a son-in-law. M. L- Brett, also held that high and honorable position. Another son was the late Lieut. Col. Richard J. Ryan who was probablv the most brilliant and gifted orator that Indiana ever produced, and who during the war for the Union served his country in the Thirty-fifth Indiana Volunteer Infantry, better known as “the Irish Regiment.” Another son is Thomas F. Ryan who is now 51) years old, and with a few intervals of absence has been a resident of Indianapolis ior forty-two years. Mr. Ryan has been an active business man all his life and has seen more than one fortune come and go in the vicissitudes of trade and sudden panic. In the early fifties smitten by the gold fever he went by way of the Isthmus of Panama to California, and he has always retained the free-hearted, open and trusting confidence that distinguished the gallant pioneers of the golden State. He has been alt over the far west engaged in mining and trade operations in Oregon. Arizona and Montana. From May, 1885 until August, 1887 he was the government agent at the Seal Islands off the Alaska coast, a highly responsible position.

r or ten years or more, saul Mr. Kvan in conversation with a group of gentlemen at the Indianapolis Hoard of Trade, "I have been extremely sensitive in my lower limbs, to weather changes. If my legs had been filled with quick silver I do not think they could have responded more quickly or more disagreeably to climatic conditions. "During the past two years this infirmity became much worse, and I began to be alarmed, fearing paralysis. My legs were cold and recently trom mv knees down were without sensation. I could walk only short distances and would even then experience great weariness. I became more and more alarmed. I naturally thought of paralysis or locomotor ataxia. The prospect was not a pleasing one. "1 happened to meet my old friend Capt. C. F. Shejiard. of this city. He was chanting the praises of Dr. Williams* Pink PiHs for Pale People and gave me his experience, telling me that he had been brought by using them from a bed where he lay helpless, his physician having declared him a hopeless victim of locogiotor ataxia, and was now as active as any man of his age, not even requiring the use of a cane. Upon his recommendation I began the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. "1 found positive relief, after taking a few doses. The numbness in ray limbs disappeared as if by magic and 1 can walk as far as 1 like at a good rapid gait and without weariness, ^us you may understand is a great boon to a man w ho has been tf an active habit of life, and who still likes to depend to a great extent upon his legs to get around in the world. “The pills also drove the rheumatism out jti my hip for 1 have not been bothered with it since 1 began their use. I think I shall have to loin Captain Shepard in his praises of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life aud richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are alpo a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregularities aud all forms of weakness. They build up the blood, and restore the glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork or excesses of whatever nature. These pills are sold in boxes ( never in loose bulk) at 50 cents a box or six boxes for 12.50, and may* be had of all druggists, or direct by mail from Dr. \\ ilHams’ Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

-MARRIAGE SCHOOLS.** teTeral Immu Wky German Women Make Good Wires. Finishing schools in England are ot doubtful utility. In South Germany, however, writes a correspondent, the institution has been developed on very practical lines. Before admission the girls are supposed to have been thoroughly well educated. They must know the rudiments of arithmetic, must have a fair acquaintance with English and German grammar, and must be able to write and speak their own language properly. They come to the school mainly to learn housekeeping. The schools generally number from ten to twenty boarders, each of whom has a separate bedroom. Every morning after breakfast the girl has to make her own bed and dust the room. Once or twice a month she is obliged to alter the position of the furniture, so that she may know' how to arrange things. Every week she is called upon to take her dresses from the cupboards, where they hang, and pack them in a box, with everything else she may require for a long visit. This done, the mistress inspects it, and points out the many ways in which she may save space. In a school in Baden 1 visited, only 16 pupils are admitted, and two housemaids and one cook are kept. At the commencement of the term the girls are informed by the mistress that four of them are required every week to take absolute charge of the bouse. They have to rise early in the morning, and see to the preparation of breakfast. \Vben this is finished they make their beds and tidy their rooms, and afterward go around the house to see that the servants have done their work. Then they are told by the mistress what the midday dinner will consist of. and this they have to prepare though the cook will supervise what they do in the kitchen, giving hints, and preventing waste.

Vine 01 imr iuui g u v at the head of the table and serve the soup, carve the poultry Or joint, and help the sweets. This meal over, those on duty have, after a short rest, to arrange afternoon tea, which they lay in the drawing-room, and at which they have to wait upon their companions aud any visitors who may happen to call. In the evening there is frequently some music or light recreation, where the girls have to act as hostesses. They finish up their day's work by arranging supper, but are not allowed to retire for the night until they have seen that the doors and windows all over the house are properly secured. The value of such a training as- this cannot be overestimated. The girls leave school quite competent to undertake the management of a house; they are good cooks, and are able to turn their hand to anything without being dependent on the servants. The other girls who have not been so actively engaged in the house are taught sewing and the making and repairing of their own garments. In the morning they have their studies, and iu the afternoon generally go for walks. The mistress of the school I visited is well connected, and has many visitors. In the winter evenings dances are ar* ranged, atid these are entirely managed by the girls on doty. They see to the preparation of the rooms, engage the musicians, draw \ip the programmes, etc. This lady told me that 32 of her girls had met their husbands at these dances. “We mistresses,” she added, “are said in Germany to be proprietors of marriage schools. Don’t laugh. It is true, and the term is not quite inappropriate.”—London Chronicle.

AN AFRICAN POISON SIUKT. Strung? Phenomenon Seen in tl»o \orthrnnt of the Dark Continent. Charles M. Stem, of Chicago, who has just returned to this city after a journey through northeast Africa, told of a curious meteorological phenomenon which he observed in a district called Gwallah. “The vegetation in that region is very luxuriant,” sail! he, “and the plant life must give off an unusually large quantity of carbonic acid gas. At least that was the conclusion I reached after seeing three natives die and four or five dogs. “The moment the animals put their noses close to the ground they would fall over and gasp, and die in about five minutes. The natives who died slept on the ground instead of in hammocks, as others did. I saw hundreds of dead birds. My theory is that a stratum of the deadly gas covered the ground for a depth of three or four inches, and any living thing breathing in that area would be asphyxiated. “I could not understand, however, how the gas was not distributed in a thinner layer, and what kept it in one place for a whole day. Nothing like it had ever been known there before. The deaths of the men and the dogs all occurred within 24 hours. Then the gas, if it was teally gas, seemed to dissipate. It was a very strange occurrence and I might have been induced to moke a more exhaustive investigation if my presence had not excited distrust. I got awav as quickly as possible, rather than be accused of being the cause of the sudden deaths. The natives are superstitious and attribute most of their misfortunes to witchcraft, so I thought it the part of wisdom to get away.”—N. Y. Mail and Express. It Hurt IIU Dtsnitv. He was walking between two policemen, and the three were on their way to the station house: “I tell you,” he said, with bitter emphasis. “this is a beastly outrage! The Idea of making a man in my position walk in this public manner to a fetid lockup. It’s scandalous." “Hut you were seen snatching the watch,” said the bigger officer. “Olrt I’m not kicking about that.” quoth the prisoner, “but where in tophet is your blamed patrol wagon ? Fang me. if this isn’t the first time in all a»y experience that I ever had tc walk!”—Cleveland Plain Dealer

DOCTORS DON’T DENY IT. The frank testimony of a famous physician.

When Dr. Ayer announced his Sarsaparilla to the world, he at once ipund the physicians his friends. Such a remedy was what they had looked for. and they were prompt to appreciate its merits and prescribe it- Perhaps no medicine—known as a patent medicine —is so generally administered and prescribed by physicians as Dr. Aver*s Sarsaparilla for blood diseases, and diseases of the skin that indicate a tainted condition of the blood. Experience has proved it to be a specific in such diseases, and sores of long standing, old ulcers, chronic rheumatism, and many other like forms of disease have yielded to the persevering use of Dr. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla after other medicines had utterly failed. The testimonials received from physicians to the value of this remedy-would fill a volume. «ere is one leaf signed by Rich'd H. Lawrence, M. D., Baltimore, Md. “It affords me pleasure to bear testimony to the success which your preparation of Sarsaparilla has had in the treatment of cutaneous and other diseases arising from a vitiated condition of the blood. Were it necessary. I might give you the names of at least fifty individuals who have been cured of long standing complaints simply by the administration of Dr. Ayer’s Sarsa-pa-rilla. One very remarkable instance 1 wasthatofa quite old woman who had lived . at Catonsville. near this city. She had been

afflicted with the rheumatism for ttirarf' years, and had taken as she had iotormed me, more than one hundred dollars* worth of medicine to obtain relief, yet withoat any beneficial result. I advised her to try a bottle of Dr. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla and told her that if it failed to do her good, 1 would refund the money. A short time afterward. 1 learned that it had cured her, and a neighbor of hers similarly afflicted was also entirely relieved of his complaint by its use. This is the universal result of the administration of your Sarsaparilla. It. is without exception, the best blood purifier with which I am acquainted.’* There is no other similar medicine csm show a similar record. Others have imitated the remedy. They can’t imitate tbe record. Dr. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla has the friendship of the physician and the favor of the family, because it cures. It fulfills alWpromises made for it. It has healed thousands of people of thg most malignant diseases that can mutilate mankind. Nothing has ever superceded it and noticing ever will until a medicine is made that can show a record of cures greater in number and equal in wonder to those wrought by Dr. Ayer's Sarsaparilla. DrAyer’s Curebook, a story of cures told bythe cured, is sent free on request by the 1. C. Ayer Company, Lowell, Mass, writ* for It.
