KEEP THE CATTLE UNDER COVER
Even now, III some of the newer regions
of the West, the easiest way to get rid of
the manure is considered the best The
English farmers have long been Obliged
to feed farm animals largely for the fer.
tilizers they yield, and and this has
proved that covered yards are the most
economical. These covers are not so
expensive as might be supposed at first
thought. Substantial sheds, large
enough to accommodate hundred uead
of cattle. may be built at cost all the
way from 81, 900 to 81 500, according to
the locality aud price OF labor and lum-
Der. The roof may be made with three
ridge poles resting upon outside walls,
and two rows of pillars. There should
be ample provision for ventilation and
the escape of the water falling upon the
roof. The original cost will not be
many dollars per head, and the interest
on this will represent the yearly COST
If this should be placed at two dollars
for each animal, it will be seen that this
outlay is more than repaid by the in
creased value of the housed manure over
that made in the open yard, and ex-
posed to the sun and drenching rains
The saving in food consequent upon the
warm protection of the animals has
been carefully estimated to be at least
one tenth the whole amount consumed.
In the saving alone the covered yard
gives handsome return upon the in'
vestment.-American Agriculturist for
February.

SCRAPING TREES.-Do we approve
OF scraping Trees asks friend of ours.
Certainly we do, provided they need it,
and one can rarely find an old tree that
does not. Aside from the fact that the
removal of the old bark scales breaks
up a refuge for various insects,
including the Woolly-aphis, the in
creased beauty of the tree repays the
trouble. There are scrapers made for
the purpose; one of these has triangu-
lar blade, another long blade, with
one flat and another slightly concave
edge. An old hoe is quite as good tool
as any; cut off the handle to about Is
inches, and do not grind the blade too
sharp, as cutting implement is not
needed-Only scraper. On very old
trunk some force may be needed to de-
tach the scales that are partly loose, but
on young trees be careful not to wound
the healthy bark. The scraping may
be done now, next month, or later
When there comes a moist drizzly spell,
90 over the scraped bark with good soft
soap, made thin enough with water to
apply with brush. Paint over a thick
coat of this soap and leave the rest to the
rains. Letter in the season the trees will
appear IS if furnished with mahogany

their style or name is, and especially those

GLOVE LIGHTENs LABOR"

good wife rose from her bed once more,
And thought with nervous dread,
or the piles of clothes to be washed, and more
Than dozen mouths to be fed.
There were the meals to get for the men in the
field,
And the children to fix away
To school, and milk to be SKINNED and
churned,
And all to be done that day.
1t had rained in the night and all the wood
Was as wet as wet could be;
There were puddings and pies to make, be-

Kissed her cheek-"It was this: that you were

The farmer went to the field, and the wife,
In smiling and absent way,
Sang snatches of tender little songs
She'd not sung for many a day;
And the pain in her head was gone, and the
clothes
Were white as the foam of the sea;
Her bread was light and butter was sweet
And as golden as it could be.
Just think" the children called In a breath,
"Tom Wood has run off to sea
He wouldn't know, if he only had
AS happy home as we."

LIVE IT DOWN.

Has foolish word been spoken,
Or an evil deed been done;
Has-the heart been almost broken,
For the friends that now disown?
Let not coldness or the frown
Shake thy manhood-live it down.
Is the stern traducer sneering,
Thrusting innuendo vile;
With the worlds opinion veering,
Basking in its tickle smile?
What are gossips with their frown?
Buzzing insects-live it down.
Verdict fairer will be given
In the sober after-thought;
Charity, sweet child of heaven,
Judgment harsh will set at nought,
Then will grieved mercy's frown
SInite the slanderer-lIve it down.
But If man refuse to soften
For that weakness he may feel,
There is One forgives as often
AS to Him we choose to kneel.
Droop not, then, If all should frown;
With such friendship-live it down.

DEAR SIR, During my term OF service i'll the
Internal Revenue Department of the United
States, at the time my office was i'll this city,
was afflicted with severe attack OF Kidney dis
ease, and at times suffered intensely. | re-
ceived the medical advice of some of our best
physicians for long time, without being bene-
fitted by their prescriptions. Being discouraged
by the failure of the doctors to help me- and be-
ing urged to use Hunts Remedy by 4 friend who
had tested its merits, although reluctant TO try
patent medicine, was finally induced to try the
Remedy. and procured two bottles OF il. and
commenced taking it faithfully according 10 the
directions.
Before had taken it three days the excruci-
ating pains iil my back had disappeared, and be-
fore had used two bottles was entirely cured.

He was suffering severely from al attack which
was pronounced by his physician a decided case
of Bright's Disease of the Kidneys. ! obtained
two bottles of Hunts Remedy for him, and he
commenced taking it, and began TO improve at
once, and was speedily restored to health, and
he attributes the saving of his life, under the
blessing of a merciful Providence, to Hunts
Remedy.
Another friend of mine in New York, to whom

severely from Kidney disease, and was entirely
cured of it after using this wonderful medicine

A Magnetic Bean.
A MYSTERY THAT THE JOHNS HOPKINS
SAvANS WERE UNABLE TO SOLVE,


sAvANs WERE UNABLE TO SOLVE.
A few days ago, Mrs. VIM. T. Dickin-
son. residing at No. so st. Paul street,
received from Mr.. VIM. Hunter; Second
Assistant United States Secretary of
State. residing in Georgetown, D. C.,
small box containing a Mexican bean.
Accompanying it was note explaining
that the bean when exposed to the light
would move as though possessed of ami
NAL life, Last evening Mr.. Dickinson
determined to test its magnetic proper
ties, and in the presence of a number of
friends, including a representative of
the Day. placed the bean on the blank
side of sheet of music, which rested
on the parlor mantle. In a few mo-
ments 1t began to move, slowly at first,
and finally skipped from one side of the
sheet to the other and turned over. A
little later it made another Jump and
moved nimbly across the paper. The
antics of the bean were watched by the
assembled group as it skipped across the
paper. Finally it was suggested that
the movement was caused by heat from
the stove, and the sheet of music was
removed to another part of the room
when the same curious manifestations
were repeated. Mrs. Dickinson stated
that she had shown the bean to num-
Der of persons, including several scien-
tific gentlemen, none of whom could of
fer an explanation of the phenomenal
antics of The little particle. Among
others to whom it was sent for exami-
nation was DIR. VIM. II. Carpenter, who
is delivering a series of lectures on
Morse literature at the Johns Hopkins
University. He studied closely the Gu
fious manifestations, and after consulta-
tion with several of the learned faculty
of the institution returned it to Mrs.
Dickinson, declaring his inability to Of
fer any solution of the phenomenon
The bean is about the size of large
grain OF Java coffee and very closely re.
sembles the latter when parched. When
exposed TO light it sometimes remains
stationary for several minutes and then
appears to be suddenly endowed with
physical life and moves away either

A BEAUTIFUL INCIDENTAL young
man who had been Oh q three days.
debauch wandered into the reading
room of a hotel where he was well
known, sat down and stared into the
street. Presently little girl of about
ten years came in and looked timidly
about the room. She was DIR ssed IN
rags, but had sweet, intelligent face
that could scarcely fail to excite sym
pathy. There were five persons in the
room, and she went to each begging.
One gentlemon gave her a five cent
piece, and she went to the gentleman
spok en of and asked him for a penny,
adding, 81 haven't had anything to eat
f"r whole day The gentleman was
out of humor, and he said, Grossly !:
Don bother me; 1 haven't had any,
thing tc eat 10 three days. The child
opened her eyes in shy wonder and
stared at him for moment, and then
walked slowly toward the door. She
turned the knob, and then, after hesi-
tating few seconds, walked up to
him, and gently laying the five cents
on his knee, said, with tone of true
girlsh pity in her voice, eff you haven't
had anything to eat for three days, you
take this and go buy you some bread.

The young man blushed to the roots of
bis hair, and, lifting the child in his
arms. kissed her two or three times in
delight. Then lie took her to the per-
sons in the room, and those in the COR
ridor and office, and asked contri6u-
tions. himself giving all the money he
had with him. He succeeded in rails

one on her way rejoicing.

THE MILKY WAY WITH ITS Mil
LIONS OF BLAZING SUNS S,-Herschell's g
labors showed the Milky Way to be a
great nebula containing at least fifty
millions of huge blazing suns, with our
sun and its attendant planets near the
centre of the system. This nebui@ is
distributed in two nearly parallel layers,
having the form of pair of millstones,
being very thin but extending laterally
to distances of which we can form no
conception. While with an uninter-
rupted track a lightning express train
might pass around our world-which
seems large to us-in less than one
month, it could not at its highest speed
accomplish the distance to the sun in
two hundred years. But beam of
light flashes across that space in eight
minutes. And yet this beam of light,
which vastly transcends in speed any
thing we know, requires more than
three years to travel from the nearest
fixed star to the earth, and to cross the
extreme width of the Milky Way itself
must occupy nearly three thousand
years! Even this exprsssea no idea OF
the limits of the visible universe. Other
nebulse than opE own are visible in
space, and II "a large as our own must
be SC. distant that the light cannot reach
,oaT system in one million years!
The great red spot which has been
visible on the surface of the planet Ju
piter for several years is reported to be
growing fainter, aud abe early disap-
pearance Of tAIa remarkable object
