proved by the addition Of salt, or
little gum-Arablc, dissolved.
That fresh meat, beginning 10
sour, will sweeten if placed out OF
doors in the cool air over night.
That milk which has changed
may be sweetened, or rendered fit
for use again, by stirring in a little
soda.
That a tablespoonful OF turpen>
tine, boiled with your white clothes
will greatly aid the whitening pro-
cess.
That kerosene will soften boots
and shoes that have been hardened
by water. and will render them
pl;able as new.
That clear boiling water will res
move tea stains. Pour the water
through the stain and thus prevent
it spreading over the fabric.
That salt will curdle new milk /;
hence, in preparing milk porridge,
gravies, etc, the salt should not be
added until the dish is prepared.

tea. kettle as bright as new. Satu-
rate wooden rag and rub with it.

A Canadian Romance.

Tbirty-six years ago there lived in
that pleasant little town down the
river called Sorel-very little it was
then-a youth and maiden. The
name of the youth wOs George
Reaupre, the name Of the maiden
Mary Ann Pearce. They belonged
to families Of moderate circumstances.
He with the strength and devotion OF
honest young manhood. loved this
young maiden, and wooed her with
that earnestness which only such a
lover can. He was given every en-
enlargement; was, some say, actuallY
accepted; was coDgratulating himself,
at least, on thu smooth coursing OF
true love, when suddenly rival ap-
peared and everything for him turned
back. The rival was one Jacob
Savage, of the same town. Pretty
soon she aud Savage were married
and settled down iD the place. and
then young Beaupre's hope died out
He tried TO work on as before, but
could not. He closed up his affairs,
and started to the far West, toward
which so many adventurous spirits
were about that time shaping their
course.
From that day to within a few
weeks ago he had not set foot in this
part of Canada. He had worked
hard, saved carefully, prospered and
laid up property worth at least s2OO,'
900. He had never married. lie
was getting up toward sixty years Of
age. Several weeks ago he took an
idea to come back once more to see
bis friends, and he started East. He
searched out relatives in Sorel anC
Montreal but found few that he re
membered. He inquired for the
woman, who. as girl, had so many
wears before thrown him overheard to-
rival. They told him that she was
widowed; her husband had been dead
many years; she had been living sew
eral years in Montreal. lie went t.

Farm and Garden Notes. 6

A potato that has been chilled is
totally unit for seed. Farmers are
often at a loss to know why their
potatoes do not sprout, when the
solution OF the mystery would be
found in the fact that they were
chilled before planting.
An important question for far
mers to consider is where to apply
manure as 10 have it tell best tor
profit. OF course it should not be
used on any spring grain except
corn, ard will probably yield the
best money value ifapplied 10 po>
tatoes where this crop is largely
grown.
In Iruit growing, remember that
fruits are ike grain and vegetable
crops. in this, that they must have
manure to keep up the fertility. I'm
like vegetables and grain, however,
their feeding roots are mostly at
the surface. 1t is best therefore,
annually to top~dress fruit trees.
The milk of COW in her third
or fourth calf is generally richer in
quality than a younger one, and
will continue so for several years.
In dry seasons the quality is genar-
ally richer, although cool weather
iavors the production Of cheese. Hot
weather increases he yield Of but
Ter.
Remove a young calf from its
mother Immediately if i; is not to
Jun with her. Place it. if possible
whele she cannot hear it. If a calf
has not been allowed to suckle it
can be taught to drunk in one les~
son. Give fresh, warm milk for a
week; then warm, half>skimmed
milk, and finally warmed skinned
milk.
There is an advantag sc in growing
some kinds of tree from the seed
where the trees is expected to re
main. The peach tree is longer
lived if never transplanted. and ii
budded at one year old will soon
get into bearing y few varieties
Of peaches reproduce themselves
from the pit. The Wager Is one
Of tie most popular Of these.
A writer III the Fruit Recorder
makes the statement that one OF his
neighb0rs planted some cabbage
plants among his corn where the
corn missed, and the butterflies did
not find them. lie has, therefore,
come TO the conclusion that if the
cabbage patch was in the middle
OF the corn field the butterflies
would not find them, as they fly
low and like plain sailing.
The sheep is close grazer, and
even prefers short pastures. 1t is
scrupulously clean. though not
very select in tie choice Of the
nerbage on which it feeds. Wool
beng a highly nitrOgenous sub
stance, requiring larger supply OF
albuminoid food for sheep than
other ruminants demand. Wool
being the chief profit OF sheep farm
ing, it will be economy TO feed oats
or ollcakc pretty freely to secure a
liberal growth OF this staple.

A dairyman says; In the case OF an
