Deneht. Breaking off the sucker often
injuries the stalk, sometimes almost up-
roofing it. If an effort is made to Sc
cure the largest possible yield, regard
less of cost, removing the suckers may
be advisable. Otherwise it is doubtful.
Occasionally a good nubbin is produced
on the suckers, and in such cases the
main stalk probably would not have
produced enough increase to compensate
for it's removal. The suckers make
finer fodder than the main stalks, and
Will be eaten up clean, while the coarser
parts will be wasted.
A TWo-THoUsAND. DOLLAR Jersew COW
owned in Baltimore, Nd, has lust earn
ed the reputation of being the best but
ter producing COW in the United States,
having, In seven days test, given 327
pounds OF milk, which made 25 pounds
y ounces Of butter, being l pound of
butter from little less than Is pounds
or 81 quarts Of milk. Some JERSEY COWS
have made a pound of butter from a
smaller quantity of milk, but they did
not give near as many quarts per day.
The above was a yield of about % quarts
per day. The COW was MIXED at inter-
walls OF eight hours, which probably in

Col. D. S. CURTIss, in the National
Farmer, gives three reasons why it is
best to obtain young pear (and presum-
| ably other fruit) trees from local or near
I by nurseries: First, they are thereby
likely to be better suited for the climate
| and soil of their new home, Second,
the growers of the nursery trees, being
near by, can more readily be called to
an account If the stock is not true to
representation; and hence the buyers
Will be more sure to get what they de-
sire and bargain for. Third, changing
| fruit trees from north to south, and vice
versa changes the character Of the fruit
IN great measure. For instance, trees
for autumn fruit in New York, when
transplanted to the climate of the PotO-
mac region becomes q summer fruit; and
winter fruit of the north becomes au-
tumn fruit when grown further south,
and so on, which must be taken into ac-
count.
AN old farmer says Inland hay rakes
will stand it very well through the hay.
ing and harvest, but they are hard
things to winter" The trouble is they
are suffered to lie around in the barn, on
the mows or in places never intended
for storing tools, and they get thrown
down IN the track; stepped upon by men
and boys; run over by colts; used for
something they are not intended for,
and generally half dozen rakes taken
to the barns in the fall will not have un-
broken material enough in them tomake
two good ones the next June, and it will
require some skill and patience to bring
handle, bows, head. and teeth together
to do even that. Have a proper place
to store them, and put them up SO Sc
curely that they will not be taken down
to knock apples from the trees, to serve
as props for the clothes line, or for any
other purpose that any one may happen
to want a long light pole.

JUDGE Blacks Shirts.
[Ben Perley Poor. !


Judge Black was very absent minded.
Once, when he was coming to Washing
ton, Mrs Black said to him: 81 wan
you to promise me that you will put or
clean shirt every morning, and I have
put six in your trunk. Please do, an d
don't let me see in Washington papers
illusions TO your dirty linen" The
Judge promised, left, and in week re-
turned After speaking to his wife he
went into his office, where he was soon
absorbed in studying case. After a
while in came Mrs. Black. ''Why,
judge" said she, ''what have you done
with all the shirts you took to Washing
toni" ''Done with the shirts?" exclaimed
the judge, abstractedly. Yes, the
shirts" said the matron. "Ohr' re-
piled the judge, why, put on clean
one every morning, as l promised you |
would. Yes, judge. but what didyou
do with those you took off? you have
not brought single one back. The
truth then flashed on the judges mind,
and an examination disclosed the fact
that the old gentleman had put on a
clean shirt every morning over those
which he already we're.

THE DIFFERENCE.

They stood at the bar of Justice
Two women with heads bowed down
And one was dressed in rustIing silk
And one in tattered gown.
One clad in the hight Of fashion,
The other one ragged and torn:
The former inspiring sympathy,
The latter contempt and scorn.

In fancy or dry goods store"
Inc one in rags was sentenced
To years incarceration

A Disinfectant Used in London.
(From the London Letter. I

A Observation-Disclosures hemedical
profession by the late DR.. Golden has
been used in London eight years. Half
a drachm of nitrate of lead should be dis
solved in one pint or more of boiling wa
ter, and two drachms of common salt In
a bucket of water. Pour the two soIu-
tons together, and let the sediment sub
side. A cloth dipped in this and hung
up in room, will sweeten fetid atmos,
phere instantly, or the solution thrown
down drain or over a heap of rubbish
will produce a like result. Clothing
worn by patient with infectious dis
ease, or bed linen, can be put at once
into this solution without injury to the
material, thus destroying the risk of
infection for those persons who wash the
clothing. Although it is strong poison
taken internally, it does not iniure the
skin. A room could be scrubbed with
the solution, and would be sweetened
at once by the process.

H. B. ". IN the independently
MARGERY'S UNCLE,

The church Of the Holy Three Kings
IL Heidelberg was fair and fragrant with
branches of apple and cherry blossoms.
Garlands OF spring flowers twined the
chancel-rail and crept down to the
brides feet. One daring cluster had
fallen on the velvet cushion.
8 Margery will kneel on crushed
flowers, whispered a romantic Ameri-
can girl.
And a nice stain it will make on her
wedding dress, replied German ma
tron. See, she has put it aside. The
beautiful frauIein has much sense"
Fraulein Margery, kneeliDg, had
taken up the cluster of daisies. They
were still in her hand when she came
down the aisle.
Margery Sherman was an orphan.
For six years she had been at the school
In Heidelberg. The last few months
Uncle Jack had taken rooms in the
town, IN an old house with balcony
looking toward the castle. On the floor
above lived Robert Brown, a young
American physician; and from this ar
rangemenJ had come about the American
wedding at the church of the Holy Three
Kings The three bridesmaids wore
fancy 1reaths about their dainty straw
hats, and baskets of pansie5 hung from
the belts Of their cream -colored dresses.
The church lay in market place, and
the market women stood in groups about
the door. Young DR.. Brown, catching
a glimpse of their smiling faces, thought
no sweeter greeting could come to his
young bride on her wedding day; and
Uncle Jack, giving handful of silver to
the nearest woman, said in voice that
broke little:
"Spend it among you; you are all
Margery's friends. ,"

The Royal London Circus, OF its sum-
mer tour, was advertised TO perform in
Bristol. The manager had previously
sent to that city Timothy Twycrass
"wOrid renowned clown and tumbler, /"
to find and TO hire half a dozen little
girls. Timothy Twycrass hated the
commission. Under the red and white
striped jacket beat tender heart. This
heart had often ached for the neglected
children, who for one evening were
transformed from the rags of their
wretched garreIs into the glory of lin
seled fairies. The first performance in
Bristol was over; the dressing maid was
washing from the children's cheeks the
only tint of rose which perhaps had ever
rested there. After this Sukey would
go with them in cab to their respec-
tive homes. "lsn't she a pretty little
dear ?" said the maid to Timothy, wrap.
ping the shawl around the youngest of
the group. Timothy came nearer. His
hideous costume and painted face did
not brighten the child, and she stretched
out her little arm to touch his belt of
bells
6 Merciful heavensi' cried Timothy:
for there were bruises on the arm and
shoulder. The heart under the red and
white stripes beat angrily, and the voice
so used to utberiDg insane nothings
sounded strange as he asked an older

wrapping his travelling rug about the
little wait, Timothy, forgetful of his at

III is reported that firm in Par

instantaneous formation of steam, so
that it can be used at once in the
cylinder of the engine. A pump
sends the required quantity of water
between two plate surfaces, which
are heated, and between which there
is only capillary space. The liquid,
spreading into thin layer, evapo.
rates instantly without going into
the so called spherodial state, and
the steam acts in the cylinder as
fresh formed steam. The. speed of
the pamp is regulated BY the engine.

TIMES CHANGES.

There was-a child, helpless child
Full of vain fears and fancles VIII,
That often wrpr, bnt sometimes smiled,
Upon it's mothers breast;
Fpebly its meanings stammered ont,
And tottered blinsiy about,
And knew no wider world without
Its little home of rest.
There was boy, y li&h'-hcarted boy
One whom no trouble conld annoy
Save some lost sport or shattered toy
Forgotten in an hour:
No dark remern hrancr troubled him,
No future fear his path could dim,
But ioy before his eyes would swim,
And hope rise like "A tower.
There was youth. an ardent youth,
Full of high promise, courage, truth,
lie knew no scatb, he knew no ruth,
Save loves sweet wounds alone:
He thought but of two foft blue eyes,
lie sought to gain but beauty's prize.
And sweeter held loves saddest signs.
Than music's softest tone.

A path of gain and gold;
And how so SOW and how to reap,
AND how to swell his shining heap,
Aud how the wealth acquired to keep
Secure within its fold.
There was an cid, old, gray-haired one
On whom had four-score winters done
Their work appointed, and had spun
His thread Of life so fine,
That scare its Thin line could be seen,
And with the slightest touch, ween,
'Iwould be as il bad never been,
And leave behind 10 sign.
And who were they, these five, who

Seemed as strange contrasts to create,
