WINTER WATERING OF SToCK.-The Western
Sock Journal has the following very sensible
suggestions in regard to the source of water for
stock:
"We have poor opinion of Creek or run for
winter watering of stock:
1. The approaches are deep with mud or COW
cred with ice to the great detrment of the stock.
Frequently fear of the one or the other deters
an animal from taking water as often as it re-
quires il,
2. The water is too warm in the Summer and
too cold in the Winter.
3. Through an alluvial soil surface water, un-
less IN Q rapid stream, retains quite portion of
the poisons resulting from vegetable decompo-
sition.
A good well and wind pump, with the auto
matte reservoir and water tanks, are Just the
thing, and give to the prairie States better W a.
ter than can be found in mountain streams.
Water the stock twice per day with water
fresh from the well when the reservoir system

A stack of good straw in the yard, and on
pleasant days run to the corn field, fill the
measure of fair treatment"

alum water is u recent suggestion as an
insectioide. 1t will destroy red and
black ants, cockroaches, spiders, chinch
bugs, and all tho crawling pests which
infcet our houses. Take two pounds OF
alum and dissolve it in three or four
quarts of boiling water; let it stand on
the fire till the alum disappears; then
apply it with brush, while nearly boil
ing hot, to every joint and crevice in
your closets, bedsteads, pantry shelves,
and the like. Brush the crevices in the
foa. of the skirting or mop boards, il
yC.. suspect that they harbor vermin.
II, in whitewashing ceiling, plenty OF
alum Is added to the lime, it will also
serve to keep insects at q distance.
Cockroaches will fee the paint which
has been washed in cool alum water.
Sugar barrels and boxes can be freed
from ants by drawing chalk mark Just
around the edge of the top of them.
The mark must be unbroken, or they
will creep over it; but continuous
chalk mark half an inch in width will
set their depredatons at naught. Pow.
dercd alum or borax will keep the chinch
bug at n respectable distance, and trav-
elers should always carry package in
their hand bags, to scatter over and
under their pillows, in places where they
have reason to suspect the presence Of
such bed-fellows.

A DIPLOMATIC ANswER.-The old
man Smith, of Richfield, is self.suffi-
cient sort of old fellow, and prides him
self upon bis riding abilities. One day
he espied his young hopeful leading q
colt to water rather gingerly, and re-
marked:
"Why, on earth don't you ride that
beast7"
"I'm 'fraid to; 'fraid he'll throw me"
Bring that hoss here" snapped the
old man.
The colt was urged up to the fence,
and braced on one side by the boy, while
the old man climbed on the rail and
stocked hims,if on the colts back. Then
he was let go, and the old gentleman
rode proudly Off Paralyzed by fear, the
colt went slowly about twenty rods with
out q demonstration. Then, like light
Ming, his four legs punched together, h;s
back bowed like viaduct arch and the
old man shot up in the air, turned seven
separate and distinct somersaults and Lit
on the small Of his back in the middle OF
the road, with both legs twisted around
his neck.
Fastening to him the young hopeful
anxiously inquired:
"Did it hurt you, pa?"
The old man rose slowly, shook out
the knots in his legs, brushed the dust
from his ears and hair, and, rubbing his
bruised elbows, growled:
"Well, it didn't do me darned bit OF
GOOD. You go hone."- Cleveland (O.)
