Hints for Farmers.

Horses.-Pasture has lost its value
now, and the nights are too cold for
horses to be kept out of the stable.
Colts should have a pint of oats daily.
and be halter broken. Their education
should be begun now, and the first
thing to be done is to accustom them
to handling, brushing, and restraint.
Patience and kindness with a colt
will go far to form good disposition
in the future horse.
Rubbish Mriads of insects and
spores of mold and Injurious fungi
gather in the rubbish of the farm.
Burn every thing of this kind. Potato
tops harbor the spores of the potato
disease straw, corn-fodder and stubs,
harbor chinch bugs; chips. bark,
weeds, and all such waste, furnish
hiding places for grubs, beetles, etc.
As preventive measures none are
more effective than general neatness
and cleanliness everywhere about the
farm.
Sundry Matters.-A safe lantern
should be procured for the stable and
barn. If kerosene oil is used, only
those kind that are known to be safe
should be purchased. The small extra
cost is nothing as compared with
safety from accident. No farmer can
afford to go uninsured. Choose a well
known, safe company in which to
insure. Painting can be done better
and cheaper now than at any other
time; there!are.no dust nor flies to spoil
the paint. Leaves should be gathered
for bedding there is nothing safer in
the brood sow's pen. Stones and
may be cleared off, cellars
banked up, cleaned, and whitewashed,
and every tool and implement cleaned
and slowed away.

Project the strawberry Reds.


1t being beyond the power of the
horticulturist, in most cases, to pro-
tect the orchards from the hard freeZ-
ing of winter, and thus to protect the
fruit buds, it stands the lover of fruits
in hand to protect the small fruits as
far as possible. The strawberry is one
of the most desirable of fruits, for it
is almost certain crop with proper
care. Cover the bed with thin coat
ing of light mulch-such as rotten
straw which has become dry-.hen
cover with marsh hay or clean straw.
A light coat is better than too much,
as the vines may be smOthered by the
heavy coating. After the danger of
frost is over in the spring, rake off the
coarser material leaving the finer as a
mulch during the growing season.
Great damage is often done by drouth
about the time the berries ripen, and
it is of as much Importance to protect
the plants from this as from the freeZ-
ing weather of winter. If the mulch
is put on in the fall, it will prevent
the ground from being beaten down
and put in condition to bake when the
frost is going out in the spring. There
is nothing that will pay better for the
time required than the strawberry-bed,
and the only wonder is that farmers
do not more generally avail themselves
of the advantages of a small patch.

Chickens Fit to Eat.

Don't imagine that it makes no diff
ference how your Thanksgiving chick
ems have been brought up. Don't sup
pose that they Will be good anyhow.
Chickens have been carefully dressed,
dehciOusly stuffed, assidiously basted,
and tenderly roasted, and yet they
were not fit to eat. There was flavor
about them that no soda rinsings could
cleanse and no seasonings conceal.
These were chickens that had picked
up their living around pig-sties and
other uncleaT places.
A chicken may be spoiled i'll dress
ing it to cook. If killed with full
crop, and allowed to lie for hours be-
fore it is ssdrawn,'' or relieved of its
internal organs), it gets an unpleasant
flavor. Fowls should be caught and
shut up without food for twelve hours
or more before they are beheaded.
Then the crop and intestines will be
empty, and the task of picking and
dressing it will be greatly lessened.
Old fowls are not necessarily tough
only cook them long enough. They are
more tender twenty-four hours after
they are killed, than if eaten imme-
diately.

An Indian Account of Clusters Fight.

''Little Buck Elk" an Uncappa chief
says our troops fought like desperate
heroes F.; that some of them, when they
found themselves outnumbered, broke
through the lines and tried to escape,
but were pursued, overtaken and kill
ed some miles from the scene of battle;
that one man who rode large horse
with flaXen name escaped into the
bad lands, where he met a scouting
war party, who killed him that none
of the soldiers were made prisoners,
and the story of captured soldiers be-
ing burned and tortured is false that
after the fight the women went among
the dead to mutilate and rob them.
The number of Indian warriors pres
ent at that fight was so great that all
could not take part in it. The loss of
the Indians in Clusters and Reno's en-
gagements amounted to about 100 in
all. Several Indians have come in
who say they were at the hostile
camps about the last of August, when
thPv SOW large body of our troops
pass :, min few miles and in plain
sight of an Indian camp containing 100
lodges, to which they paid no attention,
but afterward found a camp of 30
lodges, upon which they made bold
and vigorous attack, wiping it out.
Three friendly Indians have come in
from the Yellowstone, who say that
on their way, as they were travel
ing at night, they suddenly came upon
company of cavalry dismounted.
The IL dams say they were about to
retreat over the brow of the hill with
the intention Of hiding, when 10, the
troopers mounted in hot haste, and
dashed across the prairie; and from
the gathering of the horses hoofs, they
supposed the soldiers were in hurry
to go somewhere.

The French Wheat Crop.

\ Paris journal, the Echo AgricOle,
has been collecting statistics from all
parts of France as to the yield of wheat
the present year, with the following
result, which is prefaced by partieu-
lars made up from about $500 points !;
Out Of 70 departments there are II
where the present yield is superior to
That of last year, 10 where it is equally
good, % where it is yariable-that is
to say, better at some points and
worse at others-and So where it is
uniformly inferior; the remainder
were mute on this point. As to quail
ity, the yield of 1876 is absolutely SUI
perior to that of 1875, and the harvest
took place under perfectly favorable
conditions.
The entire area in wheat is com.
puted at 10, 1888, $40 acres, and the yield
at $50, 726, $50 bushels-equal to an av.
erage approximating 10 bushels pei
acre.

The Doc Nuisance

ne BV- fhfetaHtts
A recent case in Scotland is worthy
of notice here. A dog which had wor-
ried a number of lambs, was ordered
by the Judge of a Scotch court to be
destroyed. The judge remarked that
it was not necessary under Scotch law
for dog to prove itself to be danger
Gus by committing injury; the fact
that it was at large and not under pro-
per control was sufficient to subject its
owner to prosecution. lie hoped the
public world Cooperate with the au-
thoritles IN suppressing what had be-
come an intolerable nuisance. Tt would
be matter for congratulation if we
could hear an American judge utter
similar remarks, for the same dog
nuisance has long since become intol-
cradle in various parts of this country

You can make palmer custard for

Let the milk come to the boil. Beat
the eggs together until very light, and
then pour the milk over them, and
then pour both back again; sweeten to

time until it thickens; strain through
a fine colander and flavor.

A New Stimnlant.

Another drug becoming quite in de-
mand as a medicine and as a stimulant
is iodine. As an exitant and stimulant
it has remarkable properties. Taken
in SiX-grain doses, it will completely
revOlutioniZe the nervous system.
This demand is principally among the
rich and fashionable, for the high price
of iodine prevents its ever becoming
popular with the masses. 1t is an ar
istocratiC stimulant. A gentleman
who is familiar with its workings thus
describes the effect of iodine upon
himself: "My pulse was accelerated
and my face flushed. | became liter
ally in fever of excitement. This
excitement was of the most agreeable
kind. / had pleasant day dreams.

Antianity of Nan.


a correspondent writes TO the Lon.
don Times "AIr. Sydney 3. L.
Skertchly, of her majesty's geological
survey, who is Stationed at Brandon,
Suffolk, has recently discovered some
flint instruments in that neighbor-
hood, in beds formed before the close
of the glacial period. One was picked
out OF the beds in pit at Clifford,
Suffolk, and two others were dug out
of like beds in pit at Botany Bay, on
the Norfolk side of Brandon. 1t was
not till Mr.. Skertchly himself found
another implement at Clifford, and
saw the boulder-clay above the bed
from which he extracted it, that the
Importance of the discovery dawned
upon him, Alongside the Clifford i'm
plement he found a deposit of broken
and scraped mammalian bones and
some fresh-water shells. These bones
were all in circumscribed area. A
iawbone containing teeth had been for
warded to London to be examined.
Underneath the bones the clay was
found to be burned. Mr.. Skertchly' s
explanation is that we have here pre-
served the one solitary instance in the
whole world of camping-ground of
of paleolithic men, and this camping.
ground occurred below the boulder
clay which belonged to the earliest
part of the glacial period. These re.
mains were thus far older than any.
thing previously discovered. Tracing
the boulder-clay and the beds beneath
across the country, he saw that the
implements found at Botany Bay were
of the same age. The men who lived
before the boulder-clay appeared tc
him to be more intimately connected
in time with the men of the paleolithiC
gravels lying upon the boulder.clay
than were the latter with the men Of
the neolithic age, who scooped ou

The Laugh of Women.

\ woman has no natural gift more
beaitching than a sweet laugh. 1t is
like the sound of flutes on the water.
1t leaps from her in clear, sparkling
rill land the heart that hears it feels as
if bathed in the cool, exhilarating
spring. Have you ever pursued fu-
gitive through trees. led on by fairy
laugh--nOw there, now lost, now found!
We have, and we are pursuing that
wandering voice to this day. Some
times it comes to me in the midst of
care or sorrow, or iTksOme business,
and then we turn away the evil spirit
of mind. How much we owe to that
sweet laugh 1t turns prose to poetry;
it brings sunshine to flowers, over the
darkness of the wood in which we are
travelling it touches with light even
our sleep, which is no more than the
image of death, but is consumed with
beams that are the shadows of immor-
tality.
