SANITARY PROPERTIES OF TREES
Mr.. Kingzett tiuds that tteasaniTary
properties Of the eucalJ plus. are not
owing to its drainage powers, but to
the oil which is evaporated from its
leaves. The oil is practically Identical
with the oil Of turpentine derived from
pine-trees, and with most of the So
called essential oils or perfumes. All
these oils, when subjected to the action
of atmospheric oxygen, produce perox-
ide of hydrogen and a number OF cam
phoraceous substances having marked
antiseptIc characteristics. What is true
of the eucalyptus is true also of the pine,
an immensely larger scale, for pine for
ests are distributed freely over both
Hemispheres, and the oil OF turpentine,
which is a natural product of the pine,
undergoes the same chemical changes
in the atmosphere as tie oil Of the eu-
calyptus.

How MUCH WILL KEEP A HoRsE.-A
horse weighing from ten TO twelve hum
dred pounds will eat about six tons of
hay, or its equivalent, in year. And
we suppose The real point to get at is,
whether one can keep his horses cheap
er on some other produce than hay.
This is an exceedingly difficult question
to answer-it depends so much on cir
cumstances. We shall not attempt to
answer it fully at this time, but will
merely say that, in our opinion, three
and a-half tons of corn would keep
horse a year in fully as good condition
as six tons of hay. We may estimate
also, that it will take three and a-half
tons of oats to keep hel Sc year. A
bushel of oats weighs thirty-two o pounds
so that it will take over one hundred
and fifty-five bushels and three and a
half tons OF straw to keep horse a
year. 1t would take abouttwo acres
of good land to produce this amount,

CHICKEN LICE.-Vermin Is the pest
of poultry, and when chicken houses
get thoroughly infested, IL Is not an
easy matter to clear them. If the house
is washed with a hot lime wash, and
the roosts are rubbed with mixture OF
kerosene oil and lard, the lice will be
made uncomfortable, and If this treat
mentIs repeated few times, the house
and also the fowls will be quite free
from vermln. If the house is, as all
poultry houses should be, detached
from Darna and other buildings, it
may be fumigated. Shut it up tight
and close every opening. Then place
a pan OF live Goals on the ground Cor II
must be wooden floor, put down
few shovelfuls of earth, or coal ashes,
TO hold the PAM. Throw on handful
of birthstone, and get out quickly, clo-
sing the door tightly. If lne work has
been done thoroughly, no lice can be
found at the end OF few hours. The
white-washlng, ETC., may be then done.

AGRICULTURE.

Do NOT NEGLECT YOUR WELLS
Friend, you have mud hole at your
we'll? Go for IL at once. Do not eat or
eat or sleep till il is removed. Take a
hoe and drag out the mud and filth and
then fill The hole with dry soil or sand.
After doing this, shut out the pigs and
poultry from the well, and keep them
out. If the curb is broken or rotted
down, replace with new one. After
doing this, scrape away the grass and
surface soil around the well, and re-
place with q layer of sand and gravel.
LII, from the character of the land, your
we'll ever fills with water, cut ditch
six feet deep all around it, at the dis
tance of q few yards, and have an out
let from this to take of the water. The
water III the well will not, after this,
rise higher than the bottom of the ditch.
If your water Is muddy and impure,
throw In peck of lime to purify 1t. If
animalcul@ appear in the water, throw
in half gallon of salt to make them
settle to the bottom. And 1t Is worth
while to take some pains TO fix up some
convenience at your well. A bench to
set the bucket on while il is being filled
and handy and easy way to get the
water, and smooth, dry path from the
well TO the kitehen-these things will
make so much easier the task of your
wives and daughters. Farmers, do not
neglect your well single day longer,
but see that all about them is neat and
udy, and determine 10 keep 1t so.

weather. Always place the egg on
the big end. l have tried both ends,
and have decided In favor of the former
position. Eggs should be gathered
from the nest every day, and where
there are many hens kept, twice day.
1t matters not for what purpose we de-
sire eggs, the hens that produce them
should always be young and healthy.
Eggs that are to be kept for any length
of time should always be those from
young hens, or If two years old, only
from those in perfect health. II this
rule is closely observed by the breeders
who export eggs for Matching, from
one locality to another, there will be
better satisfaction given. 1t is OF
much Importance that the eggs have
perfect shells, and a hen not in per-
iect health mays drop her eggs reg
ularly, yet the shells may possess i'm
perfections that render them UNFIT

A Catholic Graveyard Controversy in

Cincinnati.
Special Disoatch to The CAtcaoo Tribune.
CINCINNATI, O., Dec. 4.-There was consid-
cradle talk in high Catholic circles to-day
over the refusal of Bishop Elder to allow the
rites OF the Church to be performed over the
late j. c. Fiedeldey, a. prominent Democratic
politician. because his family had decided to
bury him in Spring Grove Cemetery, which
is unconsecrated ground. Fiedeldey was a
prominent and wealthy Catholic, and all his
family are active members In that Church.
It was the intention Of Mrs. Fieldeldey, the
widow of the deceased, and her son, Mr..
William q. Fiedeldey, to have the funeral
Church, on Sycamore street. The Rev.
Father Driscoll, S. j., was at a previous re-
quest to say the last rites for the deceased,
as both in life had been most intimate
friends. The Rev. Father Driscoi1, on APP
plicatlon BY the family, expressed his will
lngness to do this for his devoted friend, but
the Reverend Coadjutor Bishop (Elder),
learning that the remains Of Afr. Fietleldey
were to be Inferred i'll Spring Grove, where
there is no conseorated ground for Catholics,
refused to allow the rites Of the Church to be
said over the body, or the body to be

the mill Was all hut destroyed. In the
lire OF last night the dry-ktlns OF thompson
lumber yard and large quantity OF lumber
were saved only By wind which chanced to be
from about the only quarter in which it could
do no great harm.
A TRIBUNE reporter called at the house OF
Mr. Wetherell. at the corner OF Calumet
avenue and Thirty-first street, and learned that
he was confined to his bed with a severe
illness. He gave the information, how,
ever, that the mill property was valued
Of $1,000 or 5000 in the agency OF Fred L.
James l. Co. The building was a frame one,
5U py 100 feet in dimensions, and the machinery
In 1t had capacity for turning out 100000 feet
Of planed lumber per day
In and Immediately around the mill we're
about 4O0,O00 feet of lumber. portion OF which
was destroyed or damaged. The extensive
lumber yards of e. C. Thompsou sur
round the mill, and contain muny
thousands OF feet of lumber. The
prompt action OF the Fire Department prevented
the spreading of the fire to the 0rent pilos OF
lumber about the mill, to which the flames were
confined.
The nre was entirely. c1ttnguished at .l:24
