THE HOUSEHOLD.

Staining Pi,se.-The Northeastern LUMBER
man recommends the following manner of
staining pine to present black walnut: Pns
pulverized asphaltum into bowl with
about twice its bulk Of turpentine and set
where 1t is warm, shaking from time to
time until it is dissolved then strain and
apply with either cloth or stiff brush.
Try little first, and if the stain be too dark,
thin it with turpentine. If desirable to
bring out the grain still more, give coat
of boiled oil and turpentine, When the
wood is thoroughly dry, polish with a mix
ture of two parts shellac varnish and one
part boiled oil. Apply by putting few
drops at a time on cloth and rubbing
briskly over the wood.
Baked lndian Puddiasg.-Put one quart of
milk on the stove in saucepan; as soon as
scalding hot, stir in teacupful of corn meal,
remove from the stove and add another
quart Of milk and cream Of it is all cream it
will not spoil the puddiltg). one teacupful
of molasses. a little salt, half a teaspoonfnI
Of ginger, and one teaspoonfnl of allspice.
Pour into pudding dish and bake about
three hours. Do not have the oven very
hot, as it will scorch easily. Coarse meal
is much better than fine for baked pud-
ding.

70 every person who understands the ell
ementary principles Of breeding, the advan-
tage, the necessity of this fixed standard is
obvious, for which the present rigid exac-
tons, the tendency exhibited by breeders is
to drift away from the accepted standard in
the direction in which their own peculiar
taste or prejudices may lead. With di-
gression from the old type in color would
be a corresponding change in other charac-
teristics, us size, form and habits; and the
result would be an entire lack of uniformity
in stock claiming to belong to the same
breed and variety.
Again; it often happens that half-brel
fowl will, in general appearance, resemble
a pure-bred one of the same kind as its pure
bred parent, on the one side; and if no at
tention were paid to the fine points, which
excite the derision of the uninitiated, would
easily pass tor thoroughbred and it il
knowledge of these nice points which ena-
bles the fancier to discriminate between the
spurious and the genuine. 1t is the pres
ence Of a double comb in fowl bearing the
outward resemblance OF a kind on which
double comb is never seen, or the absence
of fifth toe from a leg where 1t should be,
to make it a counterpart of those whose evi-
dence of purity it Is, which in many cases
mark the only difference between the real
and unreal. Therefore, we believe that Il
pure-bred animal, or one that has been bred
for generations with view to fixing some
valuable traits, either of form or habit, is
superior to one that has been bred to no de-
sirable standard, inasmuch as the probabili-
ty of those traits being reproduced in their
progeny are increased just in proportion to
| the length ot time which that course has
been pursued. Aud laugh as You may, this
standing upon trifles, as they are considered
by many, this fine-spun distinction Of feath-
er, is right and proper; for, except breeders
have target at which to aim, and except
all who do not come within given circle
are excluded, we should have .sconfusion
worse confounded;'' and instead Of stand
ard based upon intelligence and economy,
the form, color and usetul qualities OF the
various kinds would be governed by the
| whims and capricesof Individual breeders -

Montana agriculture has good future and
the present alarm and rush on the market
is premature and should be avoided. There
are those who may claim that it will not be
profitable to hold, as future crops may be
produced at a less cost than the present.
This is fair stand we admit, judging the
future by the past. Instead of such state
of affairs the production will fall off, as no
class OF men can follow any business long
at loss. Hence, evey farmer may solve
the problem to his own satisfaction by sit
ting down and calculating the cost Of his
products and market at profit, or hold for
better prices. If they will do this the
wholesale sacrifice reported last week will
increase and a better feeling prevail.

A AGRIC I i T ! RAJ.

SOME weeks ago we published an article
in regard to round-headed bolts. Since
that time we have had the opportunity to
see what nuisance they are, and hope our
contemporaries everywhere will join with
ms in condemning their manufacture. The
fret and worry these simple things have
caused the agricultural world is truly alarm
ing. Hundreds of farmers everyday at
tempt to tighten a bolt in vain, simply be-
cause it turns, and there is no means OF pre-
venting it, even with two wrenches. 1t
would soon drive the round-headed out Of
ase, as no farrner could afford to be both
cred with them if he could do otherwise.
The great question which presents itself
to the Montana farmer for the future is what
to do with his products. Heretofore it has
been, how to master the grasshoppers. This
pretty effectually learned, good crops are
assured, and the only question is what to
do with this gram when raised. There is
probably not an over production this year,
Mt least we believe there is not. The crop
has been larger than usual, but the increas-
ed consumption in every quarter will, we
think, require the greater part OF it before
next harvest, but the railroad is bearing in
upon lis and a great immigration must
come, and the opportunities offered for To-
eating fertile homes are such that it is idle
to hope that the mining interest can be de-
veloped fast enough to keep pace with our
agricultural interest, or, ia other words, to
employ people enough to consume the pro-
duet OF our vast agricultural valleys. The
consumption can be increased in a measure
by giving more attention to mandatory,
by producing our own pork, ETC., but ulti-
mately our wheat must finI its way to the
great markets of the world, with steam
boats Oh our upper river and two great rail
ways into our country. We may supply
Colorado on getting our gram transported
at rate that will Justify its production.
Labor and the cost of living will by that
time be reduced SO that one cent per pound
will be remunerative, and judging from the
grain market Of the past ten years we be-
leye this price will be realizede To-day
there is All apparent alarm. The impression

question but that most of the present clo

safely calculate on so or 60 cents per bushe
by shipping, there is no good Judgment ii
selling for that now when there is proba
bility of better figures. However, we need
not expect high prices, such as have beer
had other years. An entire failure of crops
next year'would not produce this, as Dako

CULTURE OF STRAWBERRIES.

CULTURE OF STRAWBERRIES.
In setting out strawberry plants, it is us
ually recommended, in preparing the
ground, to work It deeply. This will do
where the plants are put out in the spring,
and the soil is prepared at that time, for
this loosened soil will benefit the plant, but
only for one season. After that at will be
as compact as ever. The better way is to
select the proper soil, if this can be had, or
put it in conditionSpproaching the prop
er soil. The best soil for Strawberries is,
no doubt, sandy loan containing sufficient
clay to prevent leaclang. This, from its
nature, is sufficiently loose and porous,
and will remain so. 1t has besides
the excellent quality of drainage, which not
only favors it during wet summer, but in
winter also, making most marked differ
ence in the latter season. The porosity Of
the ground lessons the tendency to smoth-
ering from heavy SHOWS, and favors an ear
iy start in the spring and early cultivation.
Stirring the surface of the soil frequently is
until the fruit begins to set and mulching is
required. Then mulch the whole surface
between the rows and up against the hills.
II copious rains follow and continue during
bearing time, no more need be done only to
pick the fruit, except the constant necessity
Of keeping the plants clear of runners. But
copious rains are not the rule; water, there
fore, has to be applied freely and repeated
ly, not only on the hills, but over some
space on either side. When water is applied
let it be done so as to soak the ground well
down, lasting for several days; there is no
danger that there Will be too much given.
In this way. and by the addition of some
manure lin liquid form for immediate eff
fect), raise my heaviest crop from the third
years growth. The fruit stems will then
be greatly increased in number, and the
fruit will set thickly but small, amounting
to little or nothing if left without attention.
| If treated as above stated, the berries will
be large and the yield abundant. 1t the
proper soil cannot be had, clay will do if
not too heavy. and if decayed vegetable ma

The people arc becoming so much
disguised at ministers Of the Cos
pei about their Dragging of their
preaching in a disguised, or shy,
way, that have thought it would
not be amiss to write Il short arti-

Dragging bishops a little advice;
and if they don't like it, it is cheap
it will cost them nothing. First
Ministers of Christ should never
degrade themselves by Dragging Of
their ability. While there few so
stocked with egotism as to engage
in this work in. an undisguised
way, there are many who do it
slyly, and that, too, at the Begin
ming Of nearly every sermon, in the
form of apologies, excuses or ex'
plantations.
