Ember Days.

Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of this weak are Ember days, and are set apart by the Catholic church for fasting, prayer, and the conferring of holy orders.

Air Lime.

Never since it's existence has the Boston and New York Air Line railroad done so large business as it is doing the present season. Much of this prosperity is due to the return of good times and increase of manufacturing interests. Still much credit is due to Superin- tendent J. H. Franklin for it's prosperity Under his able management the road is in ex- cellent condition, the employers are courte- ous, efficient and careful, and the travelling public is well served. The road will take a front rank ere long among the best railroads in the country.-HdTtfard Post

Mithra Lodge Excursion.

Yesterday occurred the second annual har- vest excursion given under the auspices of Mithra Lodge No. S. K. of F., of Bridgeport The excursion was to Brighton Beach, Coney Island, on the steamer Grand Republic. About one hundred took the 7:15 train from this city, which arrived in Bridgeport short time before the excursion started The steamer landed at Bay Ridge about ? o'clock, which gave the excursionists over two hours at the beach, The party returned to Bridge port at eleven o'clock, the New Haven dele gation reaching this city on the midnight ex- press. The excursionists numbered 2,2OO, about one half of whom preferred to land at the Twenty third street pier and enjoy a six hours visit in the metropolis. The excur- sion was a complete success. There were no accidents, no delays, and both the officers of the boat and the committee of arrangements were untiring in their efforts to make this the excursion of the season.
 AWomnn Burned to Death.
 Between eleven and twelve o'clock last Fri day evening, the dwelling house in Montville of Leander Rounds, a night employe in the mills of Johnson Co.,, in that place, was discovered to be on fire by neighbor who was awakened by the glare of the flames He hastily proceeded to the burning house, and upon entering the front yard came upon the prostrate body of Mrs. Rounds She was terribly burned and was enduring intense pain. The little that could be done to ale viate her suffering was done, but her burns were fatal, and she died few minutes later.
 She was alone in the house when the fire broke out, and the cause of the calamity can not therefore, be known. It is supposed that when she retired she left lamp burning at her bedside, that it exploded while she slept and ignited the bed clothing, and that before she could escape from the room her clothing caught fire with the fatal result stat ed.
 The house was new one. It was totally destroyed, nor was the smallest article of it's contents saved. An insurance of $35O had been placed upon the building.

RENTz-sANr1EY NOVELTY COMPANY

RENTZ-SANTLEY NOVELTY COMPANY. Next Thursday evening MT. Leavitt's cele- brated Rentz-Santley Novelty company will appear at the Grand Opera House An ex- change says of them: ''Those who went to the Opera House last evening to see good show were not disappointed. The company have frequently appeared here, and have ai- ways given great satisfaction. The pro gramme last evening was attractive, and fol- lowed out to the letter. The ladies in the minstrel scene looked charming, and the singing was excellent. The end men, Benedict and Henshaw, are hard to beat, their jokes being new and well given. Lisa Weber, Rosa Lee, May Ten Broeck, Lulu Mortimer, Belle Clifton, Bordeaux Sisters and Huilter and Goldrich appeared in numerous specialties, all being first-class and of a high order of merit. There was freedom in the performance that would not shock the sensi- bilities, and the company may justly be ranked as one of the very best organizations travelling" Reserved seats may be obtained at Loomis' until o'clock on the evening of the performance.
 MISS KINGsLAND.
 Miss Kingsland, the only lady magician, D who is to be at the New Haven Opera House through the week, gave an excellent perform ance last evening. Her tricks were well done, and some of them were new to most of the audience. It seemed a little odd at first to see lady carrying on such an entertain ment, but she soon convinced her audience that she was quite as capable in magic and in talk as most of the male magicians Her recitations of 'sThe Curfew'' and ttThe Maniac' were very good.
 Manager Coe faithfully carried out his promise of distributing goods among holders of tickets, and some of the audience received valuable gifts. Among the articles given away were asilver ice-pitcher, silver teapot, a clock and numerous other valuable things This part of the entertainment was very pleasing to the fortunate holders of tickets, who saw good performance and got fine present besides, MT. Coe announces, that to- night and every night this week, and also at the Saturday matinee, one hundred dollars worth of goods will be distributed

My WAY.-Give your bees nice, clean
hives, any style you wish keep them
tn the lower part OF the gum or hive
until about the third Of May, then open
your hives 80 they can 20 to the honey
boxes. Keep In Il cool place in the SUM
mer. l don't think It Is q good plan 20
let them set In the hot sun. Keep your
hives shut up 80 the mice can not get
In. l would keep them little of of
the ground. If you let them swarm
you must hive them. 10 do this nicely
l sometimes take u little smoke with
me; it seems to tame them. What
shall we do when they begin to rob ono
another? | would put little board up
In front of the hive. Let the edge or
the board rest against the hive, and the
lower edge be about two inches from
the bottom Of the hive. Let the board
be long enough to come out to ca n sids
OF the hive; close up the entrance so
there is no room for the thieves to get
in, only at the bottom, and you will not
have any trouble, for when bees 20 to
hive they take straight cut, and If
they have to 80 to the end Of this little
board they will not bother them.

THE HEssIAN FLY.-An effective
method OF avoiding the Hessian fly is
to prepare the land early and SOW a
bushel or two Of oats or barley. AS
soon as this comes up the fly Will lay
Its eggs upon lhc stalks. The day be-
fore the wheat Is sown ground should
be worked with cultivator Of hevy
harrow, which will cover the young
plants and bury them and destroy the
young fly. Then the wheat may be
s0wn. This avoids tho danger Of the
fly waiting some days to depositits eggs
for want Of a proper nest for them.

MATURE ANIMALS EARLY.--Tnere is
great economy in 80 feeding ANIMALS
for meat, that they will mature early.
1t has been proved by repeated expert
ment that less feed Is required to make
apound of meat in any animal the
younger 1t is. Take for example q
steer fed for bcef he will make a far
greater gain on n bushel Of meal or a
given quality Of any suitable feed, be-
tore he Is a year old, than when he has
become two years old, and more at that
age than when he Is three. This being
true beyond question, for 1t Is one Of
the settled matters In farm practice, it
Is the hest economy to feed well, even
shambles at the earliest possible period.
Bullock, as the English people call
them, steers In our own vocabulary,
can be made as fat and as meaty at two
years thus fed as others ut three, fed in
the ordinary manner. This makes a
saving Of the food necessary to keep
not fatten-the animal Of the third
year; which ia In itself handsome
profit. Besides this saving, the beef of
800 pound steer ~ two is better Than
that of the same at u year older. Ten
der beef Is that which is made young
and rapidly. The reader will see the
double profit in the course recommen-
ded. Not only Is this the case with the
steer, but with the lamb and the pig.
In fact the most successful porli-groW
ers slaughter their animals before they
reach the end Of a year, from eight to
ten months being generally considered
the most profitable limit. We are aware
Of the predjudice we are cncountcring
by the assumed. Bat facts are stub
born. and will not yield 10 any precnn.
roivcd opinions. The farmer usually
keeps his swine until it Is eighteen
months old, and does 1t on the ground
Of economy; when the fact is, if he
would feed we'll from the first, and not
starve the creature all summer TO ma ke
1t fatten when he began to feed, he
would soc difference. TO make good
pork, feed generously always, giving
such feed rs its nature requires to make
growth, and then such tattening feed
as the appetite demands, and the
result will be better pork and larger
profits.
