Facial Expression of Emotion.

emotions, if is almost unnecessary to state, are expressed mainly by the face. It is true that the heaving • a nd feminine bosom, in times of domestic storm and stress, 'sometimes lends effectual aid to their better expression. But with this exception emotions in their visible condition are chiefly of the face. Tliarts the! case at any rate with the comparatively immobile Anglo-Sax-on. Why is this an undoubted fact? ' The muscles of the human face are less massive than those of many animals; the powerful teeth of the carnivr ora need increased strength of muscle to bring them effectually into play. The diminutive size of the facial muscles in Bum brings them more readily into action, they respond more easily to a nervous excitation. This view is due to Herbert Spencer, who is»., quoted'"but not with entire appreciation, by Mosso. The latter physiologist thinks that other frictors enter into the matter. Among the most important causes are, he thinks, the nearness of the parts stimulated to the brain. Nervous impulses naturally travel along the lines of least resistance; lienee the facial muscles are moved before tlie hands are clenched or the arm shot out straight from the slioulder.-fLondon Chronicle

THE FARM AND HOME

MATTERSOF INTEREST TO FARMER AND HOUSEWIFE. Creameries Do Not Make So Large a Proportion of the Batter L’aed as i, _ Many Suppose—One Reason Why Wheat 1b Cheap—Farm Notes. Farm and Factory Butter. The idea i§ generally prevalent that the amount df butter which has of late years been made by individual dairymen was insignificant as compared with the output of creameries and butter factories, but figures in “Statistics of the Dairy,” by HenrygE. Alvord, chief of the dairy division, shows this belief to have had ho foundation in fact, up to 1890. While the increase in population from 1850 to 1,890 was about 170 per cent. 1 ;, the production of butter for the census! .year pf 1890 exceeded that of 1850 liy, 281 pet cent. This increase was no/ uniform with either population or butter production, but quite the contrary, as may be'seen by the following flgtifOs: ( . [BUTTER. • N Per cent. Increase fromSß>r,o to ISpO.. ...... .10.70 Increase from lNiiO to 1870 11.80 Increase from 1 -uTTITTISSO 50.88 increase from 1880 to 1890. .49.49 POPULATION. Tor cent.

Bfft it will be a genuine surprise to pea'llv all who have given the matter' a thought to learn that 85 per cent of all butter produced in this country was, as late as 1899, made on the farm. Here is what lie bas to sav on the subject: “The, most noteworthy fact in connection with the production of butter on farms is that, liothwithstanding the groat extension of the creamery system atul the decline , in the amount of butter annually exported, such production has increased :ev«?u more rapidly than population. To go back to the census of 1850. it is found that the total production of butter on farms In 1819 was 818:845,806 pounds, or 15.51 pounds per capita of population. In 18(ip the amount reported was 159.681.872 pounds, or 11.62 pounds per capita. In 1870 the amount reported was 511.992,688 pounds, which r gaVe an average of only 18.88 pounds for each inhabitant, lip to this time there ha ' been nt?creamery butter reported, but in 1880 the production of fqrm butter averaged 15.50 pounds for each in-, habitant, and that of creamery butter o.s}}. pounds for each inhabitant, the total average being thus 16.0 S pounds. -■At the eleventh ,censusc however, the production of butter on farms alone averaged 16.88 pounds per capita of the population, and such had been the increase that the total production of blitter averaged no less than 19.21 pounds per unit of the population.” A s no “creamery 1m 11 cf was reported until 1880. when only a little more than' one-third of 1 tier cent. (.056. to be exact! was thus produced, it follows that of the 15 per cent,, shown by the eleventh census, nearly till was gained dur--lug teh years. There Is no ddubt fllaf the ratio of gain has been much greater of late.—New York Times.

Dr.vlnir Wheat for Seed. There is often an injury to winter wheat seeil from heat lug after the grain is gathered, which is always done in hot weather. If the straw and grain are slightly damp when put in the mow or stack, it will almost surely heat. This heating may not be injurious in itself, but it leaves the grain damper than before, and it only dries out when cold weather comes. So it often hairpens that when- winter wheat of the present year's crop is used as seed, it often is sown when very nearly as damp as it was when garnered. Such wheat germinates slowly, It is already expanded with moisture, and so does not swell In the soil as it should. For this reason many old farmers who grow winter wheat prefer wheat a year old for seed. It is, however, no better than If as good as this year's wheat, which has been thoroughly dried and if possible without any heating in its moist state. Put the seed wheat in bundle on scaffolds where it will dry, spreading so that it will not heat. Then thresh it out with the flail and put it lit a fruit evaporator for twenty-four hours. By that time- the grain • will seem much less plump tliau new ttf'hyat ought to be, but it is all the bgttef seed for that. ,|. Why,Horses Slobber. A correspondent of the American Cultivator expi'CSsPs the belief that the reason why the second growth of clover makes horses slobber is because Of its seeds. Clover seed at present and prospective prices is altogether too dear feed to be given horses, even the most valuable. But, says the Cultivator, we think our correspondent mistakes in ascribing the slobbering to the clover seed. Neither do we think it is the second growth of the clover Itself. Many years ago we made an investigation, and found th|»t the slobbering only occurred where the lobelia plant, of Jen called Indian tobacco, was found mixed with the clover. This lobelia is, as every farmer knows, a most powerful emetic. Kven on land where it is abundant, it does not get large enough to go into the first crop of bay. But after the first and heavy clover crop is removed the lobelia makes a very rapid growth, and its flowers are often very plentiful where clover Is grown on low, moist ground. The Tatael of Corn. The flower of the corn plant Is divided Into two portions, the tassel, or male sectlou, which furnishes the ik>ll- - and the silk, which is the female portion of the flower, which receives It. Each thread of allk carries some of tiie pollen to the oar. and there a grain of corn Is formed. The profusion of silk Is so great that the grains of corn are compacted on the ear as elose1y as possible. When this Is not the

fact is more likely due to the drying up of the tassel, sbpthait not enough pollen is formed to fertilize all the silk. If there is either a very d»y or very wet time when the tassel should be distributing pollen, these defective ears will be plenty. Heavy rains in one case wash the pollen off, and the dry weather causes the tassel to shrivel and become worthless. The blossoming is exhaustive. If the season Is just right one-quarter of the tassels produced would make a full crop of welldeveloped ears. But as in every crop there are more or less defective ears, it is unsafe to cut them out. The suckers usually tassel later, and for this reason they often increase the corn crop on the main stalk after the earlier tassels have dried up. Hulls nnd Tonne Chickens, In the twenty-one days that it takes to turn a perfectly* fresh fertile egg into a chick, there is more profit in proportion to tlie capital invested than in any other farm operation. So the old lady was got so far out of the way when she said she iwould not sell eggs under a shilling a dozen, or a cent each, because it didn’t pay for the. hen’s time. If an egg is worth one cent, a lively yopng chick, newly hatched, is worth at least six cents; if not ten. Six hundred' to 1,000 per cent, profit in twenty-one days’ time is not to he sneezed at. There is another side to this, of course, whew sickness or something else thins off the young chicks, and their dead little bodies are not, worth even the cent that the egg costs from which they were hatched. It is by looking, on all sides that conservative farmers usually called rather stow are saved from enthusiasm in the egg and poultry; [business that have deceived and disappointed many who have gone ,in without experience and 'have come out with more experience,

Rye Straw for Bindinsr Corn Stalks. It is a good plan for farmers who grow rye to save,.a few' bundles to be threshed by hand, and use the straw for binding corn stalks. We cut corn much earlier than we used to do, and it is Wise to do so. Tn using green corn stalks for binding the tops of stooks, perhaps two or three will break, wasting stalks, spoiling patience and taking time, ail of which w.cfuld be saved by having a wisp of long rye straw to use in binding the tops. There is still another advantage of the rye bands. They will hold, while if a dry, hot spell eomt's a good many of the stalk bands will break, letting the stook fall apart, and wiii'ii rains come most of the stalks will be found in the mud. Those Who use rye bands for binding corn stalks will never after be without them, even if they have to grow a small piece of rye every year for this purpose alone.— Ex. Growine Melons. It is natural at planting time to put some composted stable manure in melon hills. The soil is then rather damp and too cool for the melons. The manure dries and warms it, which gives the seed au earlier start than it could get without the manure. But about Gils tiuie the man who lias melons with m tint re In the hill wishes be had hot put ally there. No matter how well composted the manure, it will net hold its moisture into midsummer heats. The best way. to .water these, melon hills is to make deep boles down below the manure in the hills, and then slowly fill and refill them with water until' the ground is well saturated. Then if the holes are filled with loose soil, and the surface is kept mellow t<T prevent evaporation, the melons will not suffer for lack of moisture in even the dryest times. Substitutes for Wheat. Possibly one of the reasons for the tow prices of wheat the past few years Is that so many substitutes have been found for it as human food. We still use a great deal of wheat, but in cities especially wheaten broad is less the' staff of life that it used to be. The use of oat meal has increased, aud it daily forms part of the nutritive ration, and very good nutrition It is, too. We use far more fruit than formerly, and also more The latter are not so good in nutrition as wheat, and for this reason their increased use is not for our advantage in health and strength. Like all other starcy foods, potatoes are difficult to digest, and' should only be eaten in moderation, except by those whose digestion is strong.

Facts for the Farnjer. Mice love pumpkin seeds, and will l>e attracted to a trap baited with them when they will pass by a piece of meat. An excellent axle-grease: Tallow, eight pounds 1 : palm oil, ten pounds; plumbago, u«e pound; heat and thix well. To help the early lambs, the ewes should have a liberal meal of oatmeal gruel, a little warm, every morning, us soon as the lamb is born. The feet of foals very seldom receive the care and the frequent inspection so necessary to their future protection of form and soundness. Horses' feet from this cause alone frequently* become defective and unhealthy. Ignorance aud carelessness are, perhaps, equally to blame. It Is the business of the farmer to ascertain if he has any stock that It does not pay to keep. It is suicidal business policy to he feeding and sheltering stock thaj do not pay for their keep. A correspondent of an exchange suggests ,tp prevent apple trees from splitting where they grow in forks, taking a sprout that Is growing In one branch aud'grafting It on the other. The branch will grow with the tree aud become a strong brace. A difference of a very few days makes a great difference In all kinds of crops some season?. Clover sown Just before a beating rain would become imbeded in the soil, and would grow better and stand more dry weather than If sown Immediately after the rain. Owing to the location of some stn-' hies, it Is Impossible to get much sunlight In them; but in the greater number of barns, where the cows stand in a row next to the side, It would be an easy matter so put in a few windows. One window for every two cows should be the rule, and they may be swung, open to throw the manure out of them, If necessary- If the sun can shine directly on the cows, so much the betl.ee

GOOD ROADS

Shaded Highways. During these hot summer days is when the traveler on a dusty, treeless highway sighs for "Some boundless contiguity of shade,” or at least for good roads bordered by trees whose sheltering boughs would offer some protection against the rays Of the celestial scorcher, the sun. Trees add more than beauty to a country . highway, although that fed-' ture atone should be a sufficient incentive to insure their presence. But they are comforting, as well, and their shade helps to retain a degree of moisture that retiirds the making of dust. The useful highway should be made beautiful and comfortable as well. Every negligent highway commissioner Should be compelled to ride a wheel along a sun-blistered road, or better yet, he harnessed to a toad, as is the 1 poor dumb horse. This would bring him to a realization of the fact that a little shad,e along the road is a good and gracious thing. Make the highways beautiful.

Not until selfish, thoughtless man got down out of his spring-seated buggy and on to a wheel did he discover the sorry condition of the roads. 2r It was then that he learned how very rough had been the tv ay over which he had lashed his poor, dumb animals. It f was -then he.r&ceiYeiha jgajnfully keen appreciation of the undesirable qualities of mud and stones as road-making materials. When the pneumatic-tired bicycle appeared aud “punctures” became things to be dreaded, he awoke to a realization of the large number of injuries his horses’ feet were likely to receive. Thus the thoughtless man became humane. He suddenly desired a good, smooth road, for himself and his horse. Coming into more direct contact, with the road taught him that the horse was in need of a friend. «=•- “Their cause I plead—plead i j in heart and mind; . I A fellow-feeling makes one* wondrous kind.” S If horses could talk, and are really grateful creatures, they would never tire of singing the bicycle's praises, for the coming of the wheel was, in a broad sense, the emancipation of the horse from much of the abuse that had been Inflicted upon him. The humane society should canonize the bicycle, for it has been the means of impressing upon men's mibds the need of better highways. With the thought of making better roads comes the desire to keep them better, and hence a demand for broader tires on heavy vehicles. Narrow tires must be done away with. The bicycle, while demanding a good road. is. Itself, a road maker, or at least, a road keeper. Its soft, rubber feet are as gentle as they are swift. The wheel came, first, ns a sentimental teacher of the theory of good roads, which has since broadened into a great, practical movement in which commerce is as much interested as are the devotees of pleasure. When ill roads are in good condition for wheel riding, it will be more jif.n pleasure for horses to exist, and for men to drive them.

Fly Paper.

The world's supply of sticky fly paper comes from Michigan. There are several small factories, but the one great producer is a single factory employing about six hundred bunds all the year round, which ships its product to every land. The factory is surrounded by a high picket fence, and sentinels are on watch night and day to keep Intruders out. The most Intimate friends of the proprietors are never Invited to ontothe premises. The preparation is not patented nor copyrighted, as to gain the protection of the Government they would bave> to name the ingredients that go Into the sticky formula, and that would give trade pirates u chance to operate. Only the proprietors know the formula, which they mix In secret, allowing no employe to be present, and they have successfully guarded this secret for over twenty years. None but the most trustworthy 1 men are employed, but even the most trusted employe In one department Is never allowed to learn more than one branch of the business nor visit any department but his own, but when once engaged has substantially a life Job.

Too Suspicion*. • The Boston Globe prints a ,story which it says -used to be told by a man, now dpeeased, who acted as vhdUy among the poor for a charitable association. His instructions were to be very careful not to encourage icfteness or hypocrisy, and of course he was always on his guard. He says: was assigned to visit the house of a woman who said that she had no husband, son or other male support. After being in her tenement long enough to note that she was apparently poor, I noticed a man’s hat on a table near the door, and began to doubt whether she was bereft of all male comfort or support, as she had represented. "Whose hat is that?” I asked. She looked surprised, and did not seem ready to answer. My suspicions were naturally increased, and my imagination conjured up a male visitor who must have passed into the adjoining apartment iwliCn he heard me coming upstairs, leaving his hat as an uu-tliouglit-of witness. “Madam,” I said, with severity, "I canuot authorize relief sent to you if you are deceiving us in regard to male or if you have men coming! hete whose presence you are ashamed to acknowledge. Now, 1 ask you again, whose hat is that?” “Why, sir,” she answered, with an expression of injury and surprise, “isn’t that your own hat that you left there as you came in?” It was my turn to t>o surprised, and backing out of my predicament as gracefully as I could, I promised to send her the help she needed.

The Strength of Steel.

An experiment, with a View to ascertain the relative resistance, under pressure, of the hardest steel and the hardest stone, was recently made at Vienna. Small cubes, measuring 1 cm. of corundum and of the finest steel, were subjected to the test. The cbtnnduiri broke under the weight of six tons, but the steel resisted up to forty-two tons. The steel split up with a noise like the report of a gun, breaking into a powder, and Sending sparks in every direction which bored their way into the machine like shot.
