DO not Make q Drudge Of Your Wife.


AS rule men should do the milking
on the farm, the housewife should not
be compelled to do it. She has enough
indoor work to attend to-cooking,
washing, making and mending of the
clothes, and rearing the children. If
she has any spare time let her devote
it to the flower garden or to some
other recreation calculated to cheer,
eniiven and give her health, rather
than throw upon her burdens she is
not able to bear, and which are not
hers to carry. Some men have no
sense of propriety as to what sort Of
work, or how much of it, is heaped
upon the good wife. 1t makes no diff
terence il she does perform work out
side of her sphere continually without
complaining the shame is on him all
the same who will sit down quietly
and allow it. If.there are daughters
old enough, or female servants, they
may, with propriety. do the milking,
or assist in doing it, but it is no part
of the wife's or mothers duties, ordi-
narily.-Rurdl World.

The Abilene Gazette says that when
John Livinston, of Dickinson county,
landed at Abilene five years ago from
Tennessee he had but seventy-five
cents, and paid out fifty cents of that
sum for his first nights lodging. He
went to work at once for a farmer,
earned forty dollars, which brought
his family from Tennessee, borrowed
enough money of I. G. Henry to
homestead 160 acres of land, on which

For two years we have had very fair

What Energetic Men Can Do in this State

In order to show up what a poor
man can do in Kansas, would like to
state that seven years ago Henry Hill
bert settled on homestead close to
Corning. He now has farm of one
hundred acres under nice state of
cultivation. From May, 1876, to May,
1877, from seven cows, he made 1859
pounds of butter, netting him IL 1.2
cents per pound cash, S26427; seven
calves worth $40 each, SO. Net cash
after paying expenses, $33f17. The
spring he landed here he was in debt
for building, ETC., S20S. He now has
2l6 bearing apple trees, 400 peach trees
5. 900 cottonwood trees, 1000 NAPLES,
1-6 acre strawberries, fine lot of
grapes aud blackberries, $40 rod S of
good hedge frame house and good eel
lar, fair stabling,a good well of wa ter,
a span of borses, on e colt aud ten hogs
One year ago last August he invested
ten dollars in hogs. Up TO this time
he has sold SIP worth of hogs and
killed five for his own use. Two of
them dressed 600 pounds-got % gall
Ions of lard out of the two, and has
ten head left. This summer he will
milk twenty three cows.

Destroy the Webs and Nests in the Fruit Trees

About this time, and for few weeks

webs and nests of worms in your fruit
trees. We never drive by an orchard
where the white nests and cocoons
show in the branches without wanting

the stitch in time that saves nine

invites the pruning knife. The little
insects that scale up the bark may be
disposed of according to some author

trees with strong I've and sulphur, or
salt brine, or whitewash. If you don't

In relation to the hop as decora-
tive plant, the Gardeners Chronicle
says cultivators may take lesson
from the Kentish cul.ivators. In re-
lation to pruning their yards it says:
s'The soil forming the hill about the
roots is removed and then the wood
is cut clean away below the soildown
to the strongest eyes close to the roots
The soil is then placed back and as
soon rs warm weather sets in, shoots
come up with amazing force. This is,
no doubt, the proper method to adopt
in order to have vigorous plants and
fine heads of bloom, provided, OF
course, there is something good at the
roots. Hops need to be well manfred
in autumn TO do well in summer.

Corn Cultivation.

An eastern farmer says: After ex-
perimenting with all the varieties of
corn, sowing broadcast, III drills, aud
cultivating by hoeing il, ! have come
to the conclusion that the best and the
most profitable way to raise corn fod-
der was to plant sweet corn put the
rows three feet apart, plant thick, not
more than two feet apart, put in six 10
eight grains TO the hill, manure heavy,
keep clear of weeds, hoe two or three
times, and you will have an abundant
crop OF the very best kind of fodder
for mich cows.

says: "We have used lime on our APP

A Few Drops Of Ammonia will Save Much Work.

d rev drops OF Am0nla Will oaVe MUCH W OK.
Housekeepers, procure a good sup
ply of ammonia to use in house clean
ing. The husband has everything that
will tighten his labors. Now, suppose
his wife had her bottle of spirits of
ammonia to use, she takes her basin of
water and clean cloth, just puts on
few drops OF the fluid, and wipes off
all the dirt : it is worth more than a
half days hard labor and don't hurt
the paint either. She could put few
drops in her dishwater, and see how
easily the dishes could be cleaned;
few drops on the sponge would clean
all the windows in the sitting room,
making them shine like crystal. 1t
would take the stains off the teaspoons
too, and q tablespoonful in the mop

J. B. Bailey, of Lake County, Indi-
ana, says:
SIN trimming hedges, throw the
brush from the hedge into row.
When all is finished, l take good
heavy pole, hitch horse to each end,
with boy OH each horse, and COM
menclng at one end drive along the
brush so long as the team can work.
A stake may be thrust into the brush
ahead of the pole, and by bearing
down, the pole is held firmly TO its
work. Unhitch one horse, draw the
pole out lengthwise with the other
horse, drive along the row a sufficient
distance to clear the brush for the pole
and draw back to the heap. So pro-
coed until you have finished. 1t is
then but little trouble to burn it since
Usage twigs burn readily when green.
One of the greatest nuisances along
a roadway is trimmings of Usage
hedge. The thorps are catching TO
every thing. They will even pierce
thick leather, sometimes, and
often cause serious lameness to sheep
and cattle. By the plan | have men,
toned, large amount of brush may
be got rid of in short time, and with
little annoyance TO the operator.

Sheep-Raisiug.


We interviewed Mr.. Griffith, the
sheep man, of whom we have often
written heretofore. he sold the last
of his woody herd last week, the rem
nant numbering fifteen hundred. Last
fall he purchased 3,1l4 sheep. This
spring he began to sell some of them
off, and now they arc all gone. During
the time he owned them, out of the
entire lot, he lost only twelve from
causes other than accident. These
twelve died all in one day, and he
thought it was from the effect of some
poisonous substance. Dogs aud acct
dents removed few others, the whole
loss being thIrty-seyen. This, Mr..
Griffith says, is the smallest per cent
age of loss he has known among sheep,
and he has been accustomed to band
ling them for years. He is emphatic
in pronouncing this the best sheep
country he ever saw. - CoGeyriHe

The experiments of the late George
