AGRICULTURAL HINTS STORING VEHICLES. Mow to Coostroet a Wladlasi of •• Improved Pattern. In the makings of plans for a wind* lass to elevate box from wagons or sleighs, the first requisite is a building of proper dimensions and construction to make it practicable. Fig. 1 portrays one 24 by 20 feet, and allows for corn crib full length , on one side. It requires three sills and two plates, three cross beams, nine posts eight feet long and double doors at each end seven feet wide; comfortable space is left to pass between two wagons side by side. A post set in the ground at center or where doors meet should bfabout eight or ten inches high, with groove at both sides to receive the end of board placed directly under the edge of door, which

A rope fastened to upper door frame and also to beam will keep the door from swinging too far back,.so as not to damage hinges; foot of doors should be eight or ten inches from the ground in case oi •now. Now procure a straight stick or log (a) eight inches in diameter, to reach from first across middle beam, and placed on bearings mortised into beams us at k and braced. Eight spokes (f) mortised through near one end of log (a) and braced form the wheel (h). Spokes are notched at one end to receive chain (g), to make revolve.

Holes are bored through windlass directly above ends of Im>\ through which runs a rope (b b) and falls down and is made forked; one end goes through a st rip (c c) one by four inches, which is dovetailed at opposite end over w hieh a loop end of forked rope passes. When strip is placed underneath the wagon box a t ilting lever (e) hangs down with holes through it, which is placed on a spike thriven into beam and holds aloft the dog while lowering the box. Oue end of dog is anchored to cross beam arid passes through a slot in a strip one by three inches, which serves to g4iide it to place. Two pieces, one by live inches, are nailed securely to cross beam with large holes through them and placed directly under ends of spoke and serve to-guide chain to place. In Fig. 1, h shows tloor space overhead to ►tore, vehicles; i is space through which they are elevated. The best style of chain is such us is used on endless chain pumps. This also serves as a handy device to elevate a beef when one has occasion to butcher. The windlass ahould be on opposite side from crib.— li. Logan, in Farm and Home. AMONG THE POULTRY.

Keep the chicken* and their quarters clean. Having high perches often causes bumble foot. Supply raw bone, either crushed or in the form of meal. With laying hens wheat may be the principal grain food. < So far as is possible the food should be varied every few days. Push the hatching/The early hatched pullets make the best w inter layers. Tobacco stems or leaves placed in the liests will aid in keeping them free from vermin. Observe, which hens are the best layers and breed from them. Such traits are hereditary. With large breeds one cock to every 12 hens is s dicieijf; with trnall breedcue to every i8 hens. Oivc the fowls all the range and exercise that the weather will permit from this time on until spring.When eggs from a distance are received for hatching, let them remain: 24 hours before putting them under the Ian. Fowls that are closely confined and nre fed largely on highly concentrated food, are often affected with cramp of tile legs. In selecting breeding turkeys, as a rule, broad-backed, full breasted and large-boned fowls w ill give the best re suits.—St. Louis Republic. Uaeulas U>lsbli of Cattle. To gue*£« loseh i;j»»n w eight.> o> cattle. requires much the-:>uie talent that is required for a successful fcetler of animals. It must be bom with the man and grow with his growth, and be kept nt .its best by frequent exercise. It requires an eye quick to notice any variation in condition. The feeder needs tc be all the time watching for such changes, as well as for any symptoms of illnesk. They must take his eye at a glance, and almost without thought upon his j*art. even as a discord strikes the ear of the musician, and he must be sufficiently acquainted with his business to know, or quickly detect, both the cause and the remedy, as well as to detect the fault.—American Cultivator.

CHIDED HER MOTHERS SPIRIT. Practical Touts Woman Didn’t Want to Be Aronied at Klgbt. i Kansas City bas at least one young married woman who takes a very prosaic view of gho»u and so-called spirit manifestations. She was forced to spend a night alone in a St. Louis hotel, her husband being detained elsewhere by business. In the dead of the night she was awakened out of a sound sleep by a tremendous noise in the wardrobe. It was such a sudden and unearthly uproar that the woman, sensible and j>radical though she was, was frightened. The noise ceased, then returned. The woman jumped up, lighted the gas, and made a thorough search both of the wardrobe and the room. There was nothing so far as the evidence of the senses went which could account for-the racket. The woman put out the light and went back to bed. The noise was not repeated. Six months afterward, however, the woman was in San Francisco, and for the first time in her life, and solely out of curiosity, she attended a Spiritualistic meeting. Almost immediately the medium, a perfect stranger, turned to her and said: “The spirit of your mother is present, madam ana she says that six months ago (naming the precise date) she tried to communicate with you by means of the wardrobe in the Blank hotel, St. Louis.” The woman’s practical good sense did not desert her. “Well, you just tell my mother,” she said, “that the next time she wants to communicate with me not to make such an awful racket in the dead of night and frighten me half out of my senses.”—Chicago Chronicle. HORRIBLE DEPRAVITY. The Shameless Creature's Husband Worked for a Living. “I didn’t see Mrs, Tavistock at your party,” Mrs. Highroeks. “New" replied Mrs. Waddington, “I didn’t invite her.” “Why, I thought you used to be such good friends.” “There was a time when I thought she was rather nice, but I was deceived. I wish to forget her.” “Indeed, your words surprise me very much. I wish I had known all this before I called on her.” “It was unfortunate. Still, there’s no use worrying about it now. We are not the only ones who were deceived. The only thing we can do is to ignore her hereafter, and in that way show her that we have found out the truth.” “But you have not told me what the shameless creature did. 1 do hope there will be no scandal in which our names will have to figui^.” “Oh, no, there isn’t likely to be a scandal. I supposed, at first, that her husband was wealtnv.” “Yes'?” “And now it turns out that he is merely working on a salary, and a small one at that.” “Merciful heavens! And she has my card in her basket'.”—Cleveland leader.

The Hid Was I'ndrratie. A bright little boy—one of the pages of the senate—sat at one of the senate entrances the other day, when a lady approached him with a visiting card in her hand. “Will you hand this to Senator Blank!’* •he said. “I cannot,” replied the bov, “for all car ls must be taken to the east lobby.” The woman was inclined tobe angry and went away muttering. Then a thought struck her, and taking out her pocketbook she found § 25-eent piece. With it in her hand she went back to the boy. “Here, my lad,” she said, fn a coaxing tone. “ here is a quartet to take my card jn. “Madam,” said the boy, without a moment's hesitation, “I am paid a laryer salary than that to keep cards out."—\\ ashing ton Port. ,__ Beware the March Wind: Escape the rigors of the winds this month by going South over the Louisville 4 Nashville Railroad.

AN OVERWORKED BRAIN. From the Record, Pierceton, Ind. Determined to rise in his chosen profession as an educator, Ernest Kemper, of Piercetun, Ind., overtaxed himself mentally and physically. He was ambitious, his mina was always on his work. From early morn nntil late at night he continually pored over his books. “Burned the candle at both ends.” Few persons, even with the strongest cohstitutions, can keep up under such a strain. In addition to his studies, Mr. Kemper was teaching a school some three miles from his home. Finally, his excessive study and the exposure of going to and from school in all kinds of weather undermined his health. He was taken to his bed with pneumonia and his overworked brain almost collapsed. For several weeks he was seriously ill. Catarrh had taken root in his system and his mind was in a delicate condition. He ^m was sent to Colorado where —n ke spent three months IK without receiving any bene

gg^a noted 8 p e cialist; —. fromCleve r land treated him w i t hout avail, and then a hospital in Chicago was tried, but all absolutely without benefit. Finally his physician recommended D r. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and from the

nrst oox ne uegan to improve. ™neu he had taken nine boxes he was completely cured. This famous blood and nerve medicine had accomplished what all his former expensive ^treatment failed to accomplish. Mr. Kemper says his catarrh has entirely left him; he is strong again and weighs nine pounds more than he ever did. He gives the pills the entire credit. He is starting teaching again and feels abundantly able to continue the work. To prove that the above is true in every respect, Mr. Kemper makes an affidavit as follows: Subscribed and sworn to before me this the 10th dav of September, 1S*7. B. P. WATT, Notary Public. We doubt if these pills have an equal in all the range of medicine, for building up a run down and debilitated system.

In the hypnotic wards of manv hospitals of this country are hypnotic subjects that a mere glance, it is said, throws them into the trance state. But in order to overcome that obstinate kidney trouble, the persistent use of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is necessary. Use it, also systematically for malarial! bilious, dyspeptic, rheumatic and nervous diseases.

BEETS AS LARGE AS YO^JR ARM.

The editor of the “Brown City (Michigan) Banner” recently paid a v is 11 to W e s t e r n Canada, anrl cnoairino

of a garden that he saw in thfe Edmonton district says: “On August 23d we had the. pleasure of “visiting the model seven-acre garden at Ed“monton owned and operated by Donald “Ross, a typical Scotchman, and as wholesouled, good-natured old gentleman as you “often meet. He gave the Yankees each a “hearty handshake as we were introduced “in succession by the Canadian Government “Agent, who was our guide and pilot while “at Edmonton, and to whom we are indebted for many courtesies conferred. Mr. “Ross informed us that he cleared from $800 “to $1,000 annually from the sale of roots, ‘‘vegetables, flowers and plants. We here “state that we never before saw such a “growth of vegetables at that season of the “year. He said that he raised 750 bushels of “onions to the acre. Beets were growing as “large as your arm, turnips the size of one’s “head, and cabbages as large as a patent “pail. Following are the prices that Mr. “Ross gave us as receiving for his produce: ‘‘Beets 50 cents per bushel, carrots 40 cents, “onions $1.25; turnips $5, cabbage 4 cents “each, green corn 25 cents per dozen, ‘‘tomatoes $1.50 per bushel, potatoes 35 to 30 “cents, cauliflower $1.00 per dozen, cueuir.“bers 15 cents per dozen, strawberries 25 “cents per box, squash 4 cents per pound, “and other produce in proportion, lie kept “‘a hot-house 12x180 feet heated by a furnace “by means of flues. One man beside himself “attended this garden, except at time of/ “gathering the crop.” Agents of the Canadian Government arc now located at different points in the Unitec States, and using their efforts towards se curinjjt settlers on the fertile landsof West ern Canada, adjoining the gold belt. A Grecian Gag. Virgil occasionally indulged in humor at the expense of his freind, Maecenas. He made at one time a pilgrimage to the oracle at Delphi, and on his return said to Maecenas: “I was awfully bored while I was away.” « “So?” said Maecenas, “and what was it that bored you, amicus mens?” “The augurs, of course,” was Virgil’s quick response. This incident goes far to prove the inventive genius of the Greeks and Romans, since even at that early date augurs and gimlets had come into iise.—Detroit Free

In JfeAlfalta and Svrine-Ilreedln* li brnaka. Mr. G. H. Gould, iu a recent letter from Republican City, Neb., says: 1 came to this country from Iowa in April 1872, settling on a homestead near Republican City, Harlan county, Nebraska, wishing to begin farming on my own account.. It took all my means to get here, and 1 had to start in empty-handed, having no team or stock except one cow and one hog. The cow strayed off and was lost, so I was left with the one hog. With that I started iu to make mv way in the new country. 1 raised a few hogs through the first years, and in 1888 i bought some Poland China pigs, and commenced breeding that variety of swine, which 1 have continued ever since. I ara now raising one hundred and fifty to two hundred hogs a year, have 350 acres of land, thirty acres in alfalfa, from which the hogs are fed the year through. In the winter they are fed the hay, which they like as well as the green pasture, and for the young stock I think it is bctt r than the pasture. In 1895 I raised one hundred and fifty pigs, which were fed through the summer on alfalfa exclusively, having no grain to feed until the corn crop was ready to feed in the fall. I never had pigs ome out as well as they did, and they wen the easiest fed oet. and cheapest lot of hogs 1 ever raised. Isold over one thousan’d dollars worth at public sale Nov. 19, 1895, and fed out the balance, over seventy-five head, f >j- the pork market. The hog has made more money for the western farmer than any other farm animal, and I am not sure but what fie has made more than all others combiner'. The present low Erices of young hogs I wil’d the cheap land to e had) puts the business-w-ithin tlie reach of the men of small me«ns as well as the rich. n Disqualified. “Ofi, yes, Miss Birdliag is a cultivated singer, but she will neve r pass for a great artist, vou know.” “And why not, pray?” “Because she can sing it nothing but English.” “Oh. dear!
