Consumption.

Theodore Parker came ola sturdy
stock Of Massachusetts farmers. intel
ligent. long-lived, and capable of coutin-
rous toll. But Of his nine brothers and
sisters all but ore died of consumptjcu.
Theodore, himself, died of the same dis
ease, at forty nine, though his c,ustltu-
ton had seemed of iron. But he had
crowded the work Of a long life time into
less than fifty years, and that toll brought
out the seed-inplanted disease. He gave
natural explanation as to how the iatal
disease entered into the life ofa family
lived. 's
His fathers farmhouse stood on
hillside, which sloped into large.
spongy meadow. Tie meadow was al
ways wet. The mists were heavy nights
and mornings, and thus the seeds of
pulmonary disease were gradually sown.
onaer 1avoring circumstances they in
variably ripened into death. Mr.. Parker
says
:. Three generations of stout and long
lived men were born and grew up there;
and if the fourth be now puny, and sink
quicker to the grave, it is from no fault
Of the old house, but from the consump-
ton which such spongy meadowsin New
England seldom fail to produce in the
course of time. Even children. who
have removed to healthier situations,
carry with them the fatal poison in their
blood, and transmit it to their sons and
daughters"

Pretty Things Easily Made.

Such variety of pretty things can be
made so easily. A hanging basket is
made as follows: Cut circle of paste
board about twelve inches in diameter,
fold together three times, then curve
the widest end and cut curve from
each side of the folded piece. Open and
you will have circle with eight scallops
for the edge of the basket and eight
curves, to be sewed over and over on the
outside, this will shape the basket which
IS now ready for covering; sew on
punches of scraped horn until all is
completely covered; horns can be easily
scraped with little piece of glass into
little crinkled shavings as white as
snow. At each of the eight corners
hang loop of goldlined beads; fill the
basket when done with cotton even full.
then arrange artificial flowers in it. A
handle can be made covered with the
shavlngs, and suspended with ribbon
from hook III nail in the ceiling.
Another handsome basket is made of
allspice, strung on thread and looped
thickly on circle of wire which forms
the opening at the top; make the loops
twelve or fourteen inches long accord
ing to the size you have the circle of
wire, they are then caught together
near the bottom which forms tassel,
varnish and you will be surprised at its
beauty. You can place tin basin in
the top for water and cut flowers, or
bouquets of dried grasses, or Autumn
leaves.

When Shall Wheat beCut.

There is always discussion as 70 the
best time for cutting wheat, us far as re-
.ates to its ripeness. The demand now
is for hard tlinty wheat for the miller's
use and it has been claimed that the
early cut wheat has no gluten--that is,
that the bulk of gluten was formed in
the later stages of ripening and that
therefore it would not make so good
-four.
DR.. Kedzie has given this subject
much attention and from extensive ex-
perlments by chemical analyses found,
/. That as to the grass product per acre
'The amount of grain as influenced by
the period of cutting is u question Of
practical importance to the farmer. In
making this estimate | confined my at
tention to the weight of perfectly dry
berry, because | was satisfied that any
variation in amount of grain attendant
upon changes during growth arise from
variation in the size and weight Of the
berry and not from any change in the
number of grains growing on given
area, since new grains would not form
during the process of ripening and all
those already formed would pass through
the successive stages Of developement
more or less completely. In this
way there. were eliminated several
sources of error incidental to
| measuring the grain produced on
a given area, such as the loss of grain
from handling and from incomplete
threshing, varying productiveness OF diff
ferent plots, etc.
This estimate was made from q sam
pies taken at different times, beginning
before the berry was milky and contln-
uing till it was dead ripe. In this es-
innate, from which all sources of error
seem to have been carefully removed,
1t was found that the maximum yield
was greatest with two varieties under
trial--the Clawson and Schumaker-
when according to the memoranda,
berry nearly dry and becoming hard
straw entirely ripe" although it varied
bat little below this from the time when
it was stiff dough to dead ripe, but
Smelling i'll handling would not be taken
into account III the case of the latter, and
this we may assume is considerable.
The analysis also shows that there is
greater proportion Of gluten in the
earlier stages OF rlpening. but that the
total amount Of albummoids is greater in
the later stages, but these as well as the
starch reach their mailman when it is
!uliy ripe and decrease somewhat beyond
that time.
Manifestly from these experiments,
and they seem to be Of value, the best
and most profitable time to cut wheat,
both for the greatest yield, the value of
the grain, as we'll as economy Of labor,
is as described above-berry nearly dry
and becoming hard;. straw entirely

A Simple Cure for Gapes,

The most easily applied and bestrem-
edy for gapes in chickens is caustic.lime,
either air or waters saked 1t should be
in dry and powdered state. Take the
chicken in the left hand and open its
mouth, keeping it upright, and then
drop pinch Of dry lime into it. Hold
it i'll this position few seconds until it
is obliged to breathe, when it will inhale
some of the lime; then let it go. One
application of the lime in this manner
has cured, i'll my experience every case
of gapes, some of them in the last stages
After trying a number of remedies, !

i is simple and sure and does not iniure

EnSilaon

Professor Noeicker, the foremost ag-
ricultural chemist OF England, is to be
counted among the latest converts to the
system of saving green fodder in silos.
Mr.. Atkinson of Boston sent him two
casks-one of maize fodder, the other OF
rye-of which Professor Voelcker re-
turns analyses and, what is of more i'm
portance, the report that the substances
reached him in good condition, the
maize fodder being perfectly sound, the
rye very slightly mouldy. He adds,
that, while he prefers the maize to the
rye, both remained perfectly wholesome
food for cattle, and the bulk of what had
been sent him from the .ighborhood Of
Boston was fed, with little cottonseed
meal to cows on an experimental farm,
The animals took to the ensilape at
once and like it much On this Mr.. At
kinson relates that he has himself kept
two cows from fall feed to summer pas
ture on the ensilage got from half an acre
of good land, and he believes that with
careful management four cows can be
kept to the ensilage, with proportion
of cottonseed meal added, and
maintained in good condition.
He makes two suggestions which
seem to us valuable to small farmers
an. Q those engaged in the transport of
cattle across the ocean. ''The fact that
fodder could be taken from the pits,
packed in casks and sent to England in
good condition is suggcstive-First as to
the feeding Of live cattle in crossing the
sea. Would not good corn fodder,
packed in casks be better than hay, and
more suitable bulk for bulk? Second,
may not persons who live in city or vii
lage raise fodder at some distance, per-
NIT it to wither on the field, so as to lose
elasticity, and then pack it in -four bar
rels, usinga lever to press it, to be
brought in from the farm to the city or
village, as needed for the family cow"
Why should not farmers near villages
and towns make profitable business of
preparing and selling ensllage to those
who keep COWS but have too little
ground for their maintenance the year
round? Such persons now buy dry feed.
There is here hint for a new industry
which would give added value to lane
near towns and villages, and profitable
employment to men.-New York Her.

one raw egg, well beaten; one teaspoon
full salt; one-half teaspoonful Cayenne
pepper; one teaspoonful white sugar;
one teaspoonful salad oil: two teaspoon

adding, by degrees, the salt, pepper,
sugar, mustard and oil. Beat the raw

Eggs as an Article OF Diet.

1t is poor economy tosave up the eggs
just to sell them, becauge they bring
good price. There is nothing more
nourishing than eggs as an article

indulge in the luxury of eating them.
Four eggs contain more nutriment than
q pound Of beef-steak, and will give
more strength; and a person will not tire
of egg-diet MS quickly as they will of
fresh meat. They never distress the
partaker, and if properly cooked can
be eaten with perfect safety. For an
invalid there is nothing so wholesome as
a raw egg, beaten up with little sugar,
and stirred into glass of milk; Cor it

are more wholesome than fried ones,
