THE DRAKE BUTTON
CottOn-Tie Co.
JOHN X. SPEED & CO., AGENTS.

TTNHE suit between the above Company and the
l. American Cotton-Tie Company, affecting Patent
Rights has been satisfactorily arranged. Owing to
the universal favor with which the Drake Tie
ceiyed last season, the Company were unable to
meet the demand but they now, and will hereafter,
be prepared to furnish them In any desired quantity
The merits of the DRAKE BUTTON TIE, the
Company think surpass those of any now offered to
the planter. For simplicity of construction, dura-
of the band being equally available for buttoning,
II has an ease and rapidity of adjustment that can
be claimed for no other Button Tie.
The DRAKE BUTTON COTTON-TIE co. are also
prepared to furnish the BEARD, or LIGHTNING

upon the same terms and at the same prices as the

A Plan in Life.

"What is your plan in life, Neddief 7" /
asked small boy, turning from his big
brothers, who were talking about theirs, to
which he and had been listening; "what
is yours, Neddie?''
81 am not big enough for plan yet,"
said Neddie, "but have purpose"
"That is good; it is not every one who
has purpose. What is your purpose, Ned
die?"
"To grow up good boy, so as to be a
good man, like my father" said Neddie.
And BY the way he said it, it was plain he
meant it. His father was noble Christian
man, and Neddie could do no better than
follow in his steps. A boy with such pur.
pose will not fail of his mark.

Everybody in the family has travelled

that after the Romans took Jerusalem they
had medals struck of, on which was weep

medal bore this inscription: Iudea CAPITA

"And glad things, too. Those who Won
in the games of Greece and Rome carried
palm branches. When the people went out
to meet Jesus, on that triumphal ride into
Jerusalem, they cut down palm branches and
strewed them in the way. Then, too, don't

Revelation, where John saw the multitude,

Setting Hens.

Put a tablespoonful of sulphur in the nest
as soon as hens or turkeys are set. The heat
of the fowls causes the fumes of the sulphur
to penetrate every part of their bodies, every
louise is killed, and, as all nits are Matched
within ten days, when the mother leaves the
nest with her brood she is perfectly free
from nits or lice. 1t is convenient to have
two hens Matching at the same time, since, if
accidents happen, the two broods may be
united. Again, on the Matching day 1T fire.
quently occurs that, to prevent the newly
born chicks being crushed by eggs that are
behind time, it is desirable to give all that
are Matched to one hen, while the other takes
charge of the eggs alone. Not only does
this give security to the chicks, who run some
hazard of being crushed, if they are kept for
any prolonged time under the mother; but
the unmatched eggs also stand far better
chance. For when hen finds chickens un-
der her she sits higher from the eggs, and less
warmth is afforded them at the time they re-
quire most.

Dry Earth as a Disiufectant.

"What can l use in horse.stable to neu-
tralize the strong odor? Something cheap
enough to allow the use of a liberal quaint
ty,i necessary" To remove the offensive
smell of stables, or, better still, to prevent lite
appearance at all, either liberal and fire
quent sprinkling of well-dried and sifted
earth, or of ground plaster, will probably be
found effectual. Plaster is often used for
this purpose, but in many localities the dried
earth would be so much cheaper that it would
be worth trying. If used in sufficient guam
tity, it abaorbs all odor of human excrement
in the privy, and it will do the same purify
ing work in the stables if also used literally
there. 1t may be found on trial that q
small quantity of plaster will accomplish as
much as larger quantity of earth, so that
the labor of handling the material will be
less. A solution of copperas or green vitriOl.
sprlnkled over the floor from time to time,
also makes good disinfectant.
