Keeping Turnips and Cabbages.

The majority of people in cities, and a
large number Of people in the country,
have sore grievance in shriveled turnips
and wilted cabbage. Rarely is either
vegetable served at the table in winter in
a manner to invoke any enthusiasm on
the part of those who have a special fond
ness for either. And the fault is not with
the cook, but with the parties who handle
the vegetables. In the country there Is
no excuse for wilted cabbage, because
the old-fashioned burying in the ground,
heads down and roots exposed, keeps it
always fresh, the repeated freezing hav-
ing no bad effects 50 long as it is left in
the ground. But in the city how shall
we keep it?
The question of keeping turnips is not
so easily disposed of, even.in the country.
If put in cellar with potatoes, apples,
ETC., the temperature is too warm; if
buried in large heaps, they soon become
spongy. The simplest course open is to
bury in small heaps or keep in root
cellar that can be kept cool, even to freez-
ing. A correspondent of the Rural New
Yorker experimental in this way: He put
fifty bushels OF turnips in an unused ice
house, left the doors open until the tur-
nips on top were frozen solid, then COW
cred with light coat of straw until
spring, when they were taken out in good
condition, not wilted, spongy, or rotten
turnip in the lot. He, in short, kept his
turnips frozen during the winter, or so
near it that no change in their condition
was possible. He draws the inference
that once freezing does not injure turnips
or change their flavor "a strong point) il
they are thawed out slowly and in the
dark CHICAGO Tribune.

Where Tweed Can Go and Be Safe.

1t is very certain that William NJ.
Tweed, if not captured before effecting his
escape from the United States, in seeking
fresh restingspot, will avoid countries
with which we have extraditiOn treaties.
The crimes of forgery and embezzlement
by public officers are included in most Of
such treaties now in force, and, as a de-
mand for the rendition OF the fugitive can
be made on either of the grounds named,
he would, if found, only enjoy q short
term of liberty. The United States has,
altogether, extradition treaties with fifteen
Governments-eight European, two West
Indian and one each with Central
American, Southern American and South
African. We have also similar interna-
tional engagements with Mexico and the
Sandwich Islands. The European Gov
ernnents are Great Britain (including its
colonies and dependencies). France, Ger.
many, Austria, Italy, Norway and Sweden,
the Swiss Confederation and Belgium. Of
course, all these countries are closed
against Tweed, unless he is willing to as
sumo great risk; but Portugal, Holland,
Denmark, Russia, Spain, Greece and Tur-
key are open, besides the West Indian
Islands of Cuba, Porto Rico, St. John and
St. Croix, the two latter belonging to Den
mark. We have NO extradition treaty
with the powers just enumerated, nor with
Brazil, Chilli, Honduras, Peru, Ecuador,
Guatemala, Argentine Confederation,
Costa RIGA, the United States of Colombia
Isthmus of Panama), China OF Japan.
Therefore, there is . very wide field to
select from, if Tweed once gets beyond
the clutches OF the law.-N. Y. Herald

Let an idle woman honestly watch over

The occupation itself is so engaging that

increases so naturally that no great share

Eggs In Winter.

Are always in demand. To have them
in abundance, either for family use or for
sale in market, is one of the chief objects
for which fowls are kept.
In the fall Of the year tOwns-peOple
often buy dozen or more chickens from
the grocery store, with the intention of
devoting the cockerels to table use, and
the pullets to the task of egg producing
during the winter.
Such plan is generally satisfactory so
far as the first part of the programme is
concerned, but when it comes to part Sec
ond in the play the result in most cases
ends in disappointment. The egg bust
ness proves failure and somebody is dis
gusted with poultry-keeping.
There are various reasons why results
are no better. Saying nothing of mis-
takes in feeding, housing and general
management, the buying of late Matched
pullets is of itself one of the most certain
causes of failure. Feed and care for such
pullets as we may, it is next to impossible
TO put them in laying condition during
the cold season of winter.
The true course is to secure early
Matched birds, ii they are expected to lay
we'll during the winter. Get them fairly
started in the egg business before winter
really begins, and they will, with proper
care afterward, keep up q reasonable
supply.
But the towns-people are not the only
ones who act with 80 little judgment In
selecting: stock for winter profit. On
many farms the best and earliest chickens
of each years rearing are thoughtlessly
sacrificed to not always paying market
This practice, we are glad to believe, il
not SO common as formerly. Better fowls
are being kept, and those better cared for
as the true value and importance Of this
branch of rural economy becomes bettel
understood and appreciated. -Prairs'
Farmer.

case: "A novel suit between two farmers
came off not a thousand miles from here
short time since. Itappears that one of
the farmers sold forty turkeys to the other
at certain price per pound alive. 1t was
stipulated that the seller should keep the
turkeys until the buyer called for them
the next day, and in the meantime they
were not to be fed. According to contract
the latter called for the turkeys, weighed,
took them home and dressed them, when
10! twenty-five pounds of corn were taken
from their crops. Buyer was wrathy, de-
dacted the above number of pounds from
the weight of the turkeys, and refused to
pay more. Seller, in turn, became mad
and sued for the corn. The case was tried

on, Christmas gift puts in good word
for the children ofIpoverty, that will

the small, sad children who dwell in
'thc-resr-buildings and alleys aud ten
ement houses; in -the.-garrets and
cellars, that outnumber ten to one the
houses Of the rich; there are SO many
starved, pinched, blue-nosed, cold
fingered, barefooted little children in
these places who are so intimate with
with want and such strangers to plea
sure. They need so many things. 1t
is such gracious thing to minister
to their needs. Its worth great
deal tobring comfort to comfortless
children, to bring smile Of childish
pleasure t o sad little faces that have
not much to make them cheerful. Il
is good to give them even one happy
day in the long, long year Of 3G5 mis-
cradle days Of privation. Andit car
1be done this very Christmas. Whe
will do it? How many grown people
when they make themselves factors
for Santa Claus, will, as they, purchase
toys for their own children 'huy some
thing suitable for an equal number Q

How many children will bequeath tn
