Willow Groves.

last fall we devoted several articles
to the Importance of hard wood groves,
Bat there are thousands of bleak farms
in the State which have no groves. Nor
will they eyer have, if delayed until
hard wood groves are reared. But viii
low groves are 50 easily and readily
grown that no one can excuse himself
if he neglects such desirable shelter and
protection. Willow cuttings can be
had almost any where in the State. Now
is the time to cut them. Nearly any
size or length can be successfully used.
We have seer them cut the size of q
corn-stalk and fifteen feet long, and
planted as they do sugar zane in Louis
lana: Plow burrows five feet apart-lay
in the burrows the long cuttings. and
cover with a pillow. They throw up an
abundance Of sprouts. Or cut them as
large as your thumb, about ten inches
long and drive them down with a mallet.
Have the ground well prepared, and
well manurcd on the surface after plant
ing. The larger willows can be cut
longer just to suit the fancy. But
two and IA half feet long is a good length
to drive in sloughs when ploughing can
not be done. Drive them down fifteen
inches. then mulch in about them with
coarse manure or waste straw for three
feet on either side, so thickly the slough
grass will not come through that. Thus
they will make a rapid growth. New
corners, who have little means, and wish
Il small hog pasture at once. can get cut
tings five feet long and from one and
one-half to three inches through. Drive
them down four inches apart, and nail
a narrow board on the side or top to
steady them, and they at once make a
hog fence. and will grow rapidly, if pro-
tccted from roofing. and well mulched.
In a grove willow will do very well four
feet apart each way.
When willows are cut in March and
laid away for April setting they should
be compactly piled and covered with
dirt or wet straw. to keep them from
sun and atmosphere. \ man can cut
enough in a day to set half a mile. And
if the ground be in good order he can
put out half a mile IN Il day of the ten
inch cuttings. If they.are cut in March.
protected so as to keep them from the
top end. and her mulched, there is no
more danger Of their failing to grow
than so many cookie burrs or burdocks.
No longer let your unprotected house
and barn proclaim your stupidity

A Woman Farmer in Minnesota.
st. Paul Pionecr-Press.


In looking Over your valuable paper |
have seen nothing to show that women
have been successful in farming in Min
nesota. Last year | seeded thirteen
bushels Of wheat on my sons farm, and
raised 2lO bushels; my farm had all
grown up to weeds, owing to the grass
hoppers. Last fall | put on teams and
plowed over. This spring (or winter |
commenced seeding the 26th day Of
February, and have seeded l31 acres.
The first two weeks seeding is up nicely.
| want no hear from some other woman
who is farming in Minnesota. Please
put this in the weekly Pi;onecr-Ples to
show what a Minnesota woman can do.

The ''Unruly Member Running Us.
N. Y. Times


This country has long suffered from
excessive talk. Had nine-tenths of our
citizens who have been born during the
last fifty years been absolutely dumb,
the Republic would doubtless have pre-
served it's pristine purity. 1t is the in
terminable talk of congressman and
other leading citizens that is the source
of all our public woes. Talk is likewise
the bane of private life. With dumb
wives there would be no need of divorce
courts, and with dumb husbands home
might become a blessed reality instead
of a poetic dream. And yet, knowing
full we'll that talk is a monster OF such
hideous meaning that to be hated needs
only TO be constantly heard, Mr.. Edison
has devised an instrument by which the
range of conversation is extended from
a few feet to four miles.

Whenever he feels one coming on, he comes in,
takes a dose of Vegetine, and that is the last

When Thomas drove up to a house on
Elizabeth street yesterday, to deliver
the usual quart of mixture, the gentle
man of the house kindly inquired:
Thomas, how many quarts of milk
do you deliver"
"Ninety-one, sir.
And how many COWS have you?"
Nine, sir.
The gentleman made some remarks
about the early spring, close OF the
Eastern wal and the state OF the roads,
and then asked:
Say, Thomas, how much milk per
day do your Tvs average
Seven quarts. sir.
"Ah-um, said the gentleman, as he
moved off. Thomas looked after him.
scratched his head, and all at once grew
pale as he pulled out a short pencil and
began to figure on the wagon cover
Nine cows is nine, and | set seven
quarts down under the cows and multi
ply. That's sixty-three quarts of milk.
] told him | sold ninety-One quarts per
day. Sixty-three from ninety-onc leaves
twenty-eight, and none to carry. Now,
where do / get the rest of the milk? I'll
be hanged if | haven't given myself
away to one Of my best customers by
leaving a burned big cavity in these fig
gers to be filled with water"
TAKING CoLD.-If a cold settles on
the outer covering of the lungs, it be-
comes pneumonia, inflammation OF the
lungs, or lung fever, and in many cases
carries off the strongest mar to the
grave within a week. If cold falls upon
the inner covering of the lungs, it is
pleurisy, with its knife-like pains and
its slow, very slow, rccovcries. If a
cold settles in the joints, there is rheu.
matism, with it's agonies Of pain, and
rheumatism of heart, which in an in
slant sometimes snaps asunder the
cords of life with no friendly warning.
1t is Of the utmost practical import
ance, then in the wintry weather, to
know, not so much how to cure a cold,
as how to avoid it.

Napoleon had led specie pay

government paid only coin and dis
counted its contract with a large profit
for the taxpayers, coming out of the
war without increased debt and a
surplus in the treasury.
Had the late war been conducted
upon a specie basis. it would have
