Value Of the Hay Crop.

There are few, who have not given the
subject especial attention, who appreci-
ate the value of the hay crop to the peo-
pie of all the States. In the year 1880,
as we learn from the Bureau of Agricul-
ture at Washington, the value of the
four most important crops of the coun-
try was estimated as follows. Corn,
$679, ia, 400; wheat, S474, POI, $50; hay,
S371 81, 0S4 and cotton, $3.50, 266, 242.
The value of the hay crop of New York
alone was $50, 261 1928; that of Pennsvl-
vania, $44, 72S, 704, and that of the. little
State of Vermont, whose entire agricul-
tural product was only S18,G22, 847,
amounted to the astonishing sum of
So, 293,112 In Missouri the hay crop
was worth S10,605, 1896. In the South
em States this crop is strangely neglect
ed. This is not because grass does not
grow well in that quarter of the Union,
nor that it does not remunerate the
farmer. The yield in Vermont was only
LOS tons per acre, worth 5000 per ton,
while in every Southern State the yield
was greater and the product worth more
per ton. The highest yield of hay per
acre IN the United States was in Texas,
and the yield in every Southern State
was above the average, and the value
of the crop per acre much above the
value of the same crop in the North and
West. The greatest value per acre of
the hay crop in any State was in Geor-
gia, where it was worth $50. In Mis-
souri, it was worth 1924 per acre, while
wheat was worth $11.93 and corn only
Sl0.22. Of course there is a limit to the
demand for hay, but it is plain that it is
not reached in the West or South 1t is
therefore little curious that crop SO
pleasant to handle and SO profitable is
not given a more prominent place in the
catalogue of agricultural products. st.

A Good Word for Parsnips.

The climate for most parts of this
country is poorly adapted to the growth
of turnips and other vegetables that
grow near the surface of the ground or
project above it in part. If a drought
occurs they are likely to be hard and
stringy. Carrots and parsnips, however,
are less likely to be injured in this way,
as they grow entirely underground. The
extremity of their roots penetrate the
soil to a long distance and obtain mois-
ture even in dry time. Their leaves,
which are near the surface, shade the
soil and help to keep it moist. Parsnips
are very productive and have no insect
enemies. They can be harvested late in
the fall and preserved in pits for winter
use or allowed to remain in the ground
all winter. Parsnips are improved in
stead ofinjured by the process offreezing,
(which changes the starch they contain
into sugar. Children who do not like
most kinds of vegetables are very fond
of parsnips. To be prepared for the
table as they should be they should be
first boiled and then fried till the surfaces
are brown. Many use parsnips only in
the spring, but, by digging them in the
fall and preserving them where they will
not be in danger of constant freezing and
thawing, they are in excellent condition
to use at any time during cold weather.
In the island of Jersey parsnips are ex-
tensivelyi raised for milch cows In
France they are employed for feeding
fowls at all seasons of the year. When
fed to fowls that are to be fattened they
ARE first boiled and then fried in cheap
fat. tits necessaryto thin parsnips BY
hand and to weed them once in the same
way, but most of the work of cultivation
can be performed by horse cultivation.
After the leaves cover most of the ground
no labor is required except to pull up the
large weeds that appear between the
lows. Chicago Times.

Pinto Engineering.


Yesterday afternoon bevy of Piute
sGuaws were at work wood-gathering on
Mill street, a short distance above the
high railroad bridge that crosses over to
the grounds Of the Ophir Mining com,
pany. They had secured a stick OF wood
which was to long to be conveniently car
ried, and desired TO break 1t in two;
Such was the problem to be solved, and
they went about the business as follows:
The stubborn stick was placed IN
slanting position against a bowlder some
four feet in height This being arrang-:
ed two squaws raised rock that would
weigh about $50 pounds, and placed IL
on the head of third sqaw. The squaw
after properly posing the rock with her
hands, made short run, then springlng
from her feet, after the fashion OF q
fighting ram, discharged the ponderous
rock. ft.}
She missed her aim. The rock, after
describing curve of several feet in the
air, fell with crash against the bowlder
alongside of the stick of wood.
She was evidently a good deal cha
grined at the failure of the first effort.
When the rock was again poised upon
her head, she walked off some thirty
feet, and when she darted forward, it
was plainly to be seen. that she meant
mischief. M -A .i.f 500
Running forward some twenty feet
she suddenly bounded high in the air
and discharged the great rock. Being
but light and slender, when the heavy
rock left her head all ballast was gone
and she spun around in the air some
four or five times, finally coming down
on her feet and all right. The result Of
her effort was, however, somewhat dis
astrous to one of her assistants. The
stick was fairly struck and broken, but
the upper end of it flew back and struck
the largest and latest squaw squarely
in the stomach, stretching her upon the
ground as one dead. A great cutlery
was raised by all the squaws and pa
pooses, lot of bucks came tearing down
the railroad track from theneighborhood
of the lumber-yards, and for time
there was a great commotion. A few
handfulls of snow finally brought the
injured squaw to her legs, and when
she got up she gazed wildly about as
though wondering to see that no one
else was injured by the explosion Vtr-

The Rabbit Plague in Australia.

We have lately been told by an Anti
podean contemporary that desperate
struggle is now going on in South
Australia between man and rabbit ''for
the survival of the fittest." Every device
has been tentatively employed by the
farmer to get the better of his destruc-
tive and ubiquitous little enemy, but
providence as Napoleon was want
to say favors big battalions," and the
victory remains hitherto with the swarm
ing armies of the aggressive rodent.
FeIrets, stoats and weasels have been
imported from England and turned down
among the rabbit-infested districts; but
the extraordinary and unnatural result
has been that, after short time, the
mustelida or weasel tribes began to
fraternize with the ''nimble, skipping
little animals as Lord Granville once
called rabbits in the House of Lords.
For while it was hoped that poison, in
the form of stepped wheat or of phos-
phorized oats, would keep the rabbits
down; but hitherto they have triumphed
over the puny onslaughts of their human
assailants. 1t has been suggested-and
by no one more forcibly than by Lord
Elcho-that wire-netting should be
thrown around the Australian wheat
fields to keep the rabbits out; but the ex-
pense is great, for the rabbit is great
jumper, and can easily clear an obstacle
which is less than four feet in height.
Lord Elcho gave hint in these columns
to Australian agriculturists how to plant
their wire-netting so that the rabbits
could not burrow under it, his advice be-
ing that the bottom of the netting should
be buried underground, with an elbow
turned up two or three inches below the
surface, and running outward at right
angles to the upright stand. The rabbit,
when he begins to burrow, soon lights
upon the buried obstruction, and gives
up the attempt to scratch his way under
the upright wire-netting which protects
the crop from its hungry teeth.-Losdon

Space and Electricity.

How far we have annihilated space
and time by means of electricity let the
following incident, related by the Times
of India, show: During the repairs
of the telegraph cable near Bombay. the
steamers Chiltern and Great Northern
were about half mile apart, the for
mer having hold of shore cable, and so
was in Geographic communication with
Bombay; the latter having hold of sea
end, and so was in telegraphic commu-
nication with Alden. The Chiltern de-
sired the Great Northern to splice on to
the cable end held by the latter, and
pay out three-quarters of a mile of cable,
and this was communicated by wire
from the restroom of the Chiltern pass
ing through all the coils of cables in her
hold and on to Bombay, whence it was
sent on to Alden, and back from Alden
to the Great Northern. Thus, as a
speedy means of sending message half
a mile, it was forwarded by route be-
tween three and four thousand miles
long. The following morning, when the
two vessels were within a quarter of a
mile of each other communications
passed between them constantly in the
same way 1t is quite evident that as
railway and steamboat travelling and
telegraphing progress we shall have to
adopt some other means of measuring
distances than those we now possess,

FARM AND FIRESIDE.

-Mincemeat--Takee eight pounds of
beef, two and one-half pounds of suet,
three pounds of currents, two and one
half pounds of citron, four pounds of
sugar, one peck of apples, four lemons,
one ounce of nutmeg, one-half ounce of
cloves, one ounce of cinnamon, one ounce
of mace, little salt and ane quart of
cider. Mix well.
Hominy fritters go well on a cold
morning with coffee. Take two teacup-
fuls of cold boiled hominy, one cup of
sweet milk, four tablespoonful of flour,
little salt, and one egg; beat vigorous
ly and drop with a spoon into hot lard;
fry until brown. Rice fritters can be
made in exactly the same way by substi-
tuting boiled rice for hominy,
The largest horse known was recent-
ly purchased in Ohio by parties living in
New York. 1t is of Norman breed, of
iron-gray color, and weighs 2 ,045 pounds,
being heavier by several hundred pounds
than Barnum's big horse. The animal
is but three years old, and instead of be-
ing clumsy and ill-proportioned, as would
naturally be supposed, is Of perfect form
and symmetrically built.
Napkin rings to dress the table, and
especially to please the children of the
household, are made of soft unbleached
Irvine. Make chain the required size,
then crochet round and round until the
ring is wide enough, finish with small
scallop, then starch them off very stiff,
slip them over bottle to dry and smooth
oatah the wrinkles. When dry run a
different-colored ribbon in each ring, and
tie in a tiny bow.
Some young housekeepers, and all
servants, need to be cautioned once in
awhile in regard to their manner of
using spoons in cooking. The best solid
silver ones (Which almost invariably
suggest the wedding-day) are certainly
unsuitable to scrape kettles and sauce
pans with. The plated ones are no bet
ter fitted for the purpose, and who but a
chemist can tell how certain acids will
act on the metal, and subsequently on
the familyP Aliberal supply Of cooking
spoons, which can be bought atany first
class hardware store, should be provided.
Two or three of the old-fashioned light
spoons, made of wood, are useful also
for some kinds of stirring and beating.
-Stewed Celery-Prepare one head
ofcelery, two ounces of butter, one ounce
of flour, three gills of milk, one-half tea
spoonful Of pepper, one teaspoonful of
salt Wash the celery thoroughly, cut
it into inch-lengths, when it should be
put into a saucepan, covered with boil
ing water, and cooked until tender, the
length of time for which depends en-
tirely upon the age and quality of the
celery. When tender the water must be
poured off, the milk and flour mixed to-
gether in a bowl, which season with the
pepper and salt, and pouring it over the
celery, return the saucepan to the fire,
stirring all until the milk boils, when the
butter must be added and the stew served
hot.

Drinking in Geld Weather.

When sudden cold snap follows a

to drink much less than they need, un-
less water is where they can get it with
out exposure to the cold. Perhaps they
need less at such times; but often they
suffer from thirst before going out in
the. cold to drink. Thrifty condition at
such times is promoted by careful wat
ering more than by high feeding. This
is especially true of poultry and mich
cows. Meal or cut feed is better for
cows at other times, but when they are

OF amusement, and declared that he
would quit the premises unless it were
