Cutting Flowers.

The following relative to cutting
and preserving flowers, will be of
special interest to the ladies, no
doubt. Never cut flowers during
intense sunshine, nor keep them
exposed to the sun or winds. Do
not pull them off, but cut them
clearly off the plant with a sharp
knife-not with the scissors. And
when taken in doors, place them
in the shade and reduce them to
the required length of stalk with
a sharp knife, by which the tube
through which they draw up wa
ter j. not torn and mutt ated, and
the water is permitted to ascend
freely; whereas if the stems are
lacerated or bruised, the pores are
closed up. Use pure water to set
them in, or pure white sand in a
state of saturation, sticking the
ends of the stalk into it, hut not in
a crowded manner If in Water
alone, it is to be changed daily
and a thin slice should be cut off
the ends of the stalks at every
change of the water.

Susan b. Anthony sets an ex-
ample which both sexes would do
well 10 follow. Some years ago
Miss Anthony published a wo-
mans rights paper, entitled thp
Revolution. 1t fai'ei eventually
and Miss Anthony found herself
deeply involved ia debt In conse-
queacc thereof, and without any
present assets of value. But she
made up her mind 10 pay he debt
of $4,000 by her own exertions,
and she went to work courage
ously in the lecture field. She has
now earned the money and dis
charged the last obligation, so
that she can look the world brave
ly in the face again and say thai
she owes it nothing. This is the
work of IA brave and good woman.
Moreover she appears u have dis
tinguished herself among women
by holding her tongue respecting
the Beecher scandal, concerning
which she is supposed to know u
good deal She is tho woman who
pays her debts and sets a watch
upon her lips. How wou d Miss
Anthony do for Centennial Pres
ident?

POULTRY RAISING. There is
probably no other branch OF the
farming operations that pays so
well as the raising Of poultry when
the amount of capital required is
taken into confederation. But to
insure success In this, as In every
other department OF rural pur-
suits, close attention to the bust
ness il necessary. See that they
have, comfortable quarters and
proper food and drink. They
need meat in some form in winter
and supply of bone dust will
greatly increase their laying quail
tiles. The following statement,
which we take from the Country
Gentlemen, is a good illustration of
what well directed efforts will rea-
lie in the care OF fowls: In look
ing over my poultry account for
1875 / found the receipt so salts
factory that l thought that l would
send it to you. began the year
with 33 hens and cocks, Ii of
them being old hens and % pullets.
In July l dressed and took to
market 13 of the old fowls, and
some 80 cockarels, and the whole
brouhgt $500. That left me 20
laying hens through August, Sep
TENDER and until the last of Octo-
Der. when few of this seasons
pullets began to lay. I sold the
eggs | got from the whole at varl-
Gus prices, from II cents up to %
cents per dozen. | sold $40 dozen
besides what we used ourselves,
and these eggs brought me $S7.4S.
l have at present So hens and 4
cocks, and the increase in value of
the flock at Is cents each is $3.50.
The whole yield amounted to $780,
o. The cost for their feed for the
year for screenings, meal, potatoes
and corn, (which cost me from ST.
to 81 20 per bushel,l was $67,5 !;
which, taken from the income,
leaves on hand as profits, 1927.
| Will send the account OF the flock
/ now have next january. 0.
