Life Saving at Fires.

New York Letter: The Life.saving
corps %organizeda year ago upon an Eng
lish model proved its efficiency and val
ue on Monday, the 10Th, in a most sig
nal manner. The corps was organ
lied for the purpose of saving persons
in buildings too high for ladders to
reach, or where for any reason ladders
could not be used. Each man is armed
with along pole with a hook upon one
end; the pole reaches easily from story
to story, and is knotted so that a man
can climb it. Arrived at the fire the
men thrust their hooks through
the second story windows and climb up;
they then pull a rope ladder after them
and fastening tito the window sill pull up
their pole and with their hook break in
the window above, and 30 proceed in
an incredibly short time to the top of q
building. The work it dangerous; but
the men are trained athletes and have
been practicing ever since their organi.
cation upon any old building where
they could get permission to smash in
the window sashes. On Monday they
took four minutes to go from the ground
to the sixth story, eighty feet high, where
on q sill the elevator boy, Louis Casta-
ing, was sitting with the smoke and fire
scorching his back. Another important
work which the corps is we'll fitted for is
to drag the lines Of hose up the front Of
buildings which cannot be entered on
account Of FIRE and smoke.

Lima Beans.

A correspondent of the Farm and Gar
den has discarded poles in growing lima
beans. A liberal supply of anure is
placed in deep burrows, mixed thorough
ly with the soil, and seed dropped every
four inches in rows three and q half feet
apart. When we'll up the plants are
pushed with heavier stuff than for tall
peas. The vines having reached the
top of the support, r pinched in,
which repression results to the advan-
tage of the crop. BY this method he
gets q larger product from a given space
than in the old way, and has a smaller
surface to hoe.
The best writers on poultry matters
give great prominence to warmth for
the young of all kinds Of fowls, and we
know by experience that it is very inn
portant. We have often saved young
chickens and turkeys that had got
chilled, and We're apparently l~ifeless, by
dipping them into a dish of warm water
and wrapping them in warm flannel till
they were dry. Warm water penetrates
the feathers at once and warns the
body, while it would take a long timeto
warm through the cold, wet feathers by
dry heat.

Elind StsgSers.

The disease known as "blind stag
gers" or the s'trembles" is caused by
disorder of the brain produced by indl-
gestion and disordered stomach or liv-
or or both. 1t is the same in cow as
in horses. Probably the COW has
stopped chewing the cud, which is a
certain Indication of Indigestion. Give
her a pint of linseed oil repeat the
second day, and also give her q bran
mash with a tablespoonful of carbonate
OF soda in it every day for a week. Feed
lightly for a week or two and gradually
get up to full feeding. This is caused
by overfeeding-giving too much grain
food Or feeding on frozen grass, moldy
corn fodder or other indigestible food.
If the oil does not effect the bowels
freely give twenty-four ounces of epson
solts dissolved in warm water, followed
by drinks of thin warm bran sled or
linseed Cruel; this will relieve the stom-
ach if impaction of the undigested food
in it has occurred. This disorder af-
fects the whole nervous system, and one
of its first effects is to stop the flow Of
milk.

Remarkab,e succ,ss In reoainr.

There are few farmers in New-Eng-
land better known than Mr.. A. Dawson,
of CraftsbuTy, VT, as he is q dealer in
cattle, and every year buys from 1000
to $500 head here in the north and sells
them south in Massachusetts and Con-
necticut. Last November at his farm,
in the care of his son., he had eight
grade Durham steer calves, about eight
months old that weighed about $50
pounds each, and II native steer of the
same weight. These calves wero tied
i'll a good stable with chains about their
necks and watered regularly, and if the
day was sunny allowed to stay out a lit
tie while. They were fed hay of rather
poor VITALITY and each day fed
two quarts of white middlings from
wheat and one quart of corn-and-cob
meal until March l, when good corn
meal was substituted for the cob meal.
The result is, this spring, before May
l, the Durham grade calves weigh 900
pounds each and are sold for $55 each
or S1lO per pair rs they are mated. The
native steer with the same care and
feed only weigs $50. The winter rate
of gain is indicated by one pair that
gained 200 pounds in forty days.
What is remarkable is that thousands
of calves are raised in Northern Yer
mont and sold because they are thought
Improbable stock to winter. What are
wintered sell in spring for from $40 to
$50, often for less; with this addition of
meal these yearlings sold ut aprice sim
liar to good three-yeas-olds or ordinary
f~our-year-olds. The quantity and COM
bination of meal was dictated by Mr..
Davison's best Judgment and long ex-
perience. Fastening with chains seems
conducive to comfort, therefore to
growth. The droppings of cattle is a
sure index of their thrift. If the excre-
ment is dry and the animal costive it
cannot thrive, and a too lax condition
of the bowels is also a bad indication.
The result of this experiment is in har-
mony with the lesson of the Chicago
Fut Stock Show. that the cheapest beef
is fattened early and continuously. AL
so 1t indicates that Durham grades are
preferable to native calves as feeders.
| do not know of an instance of more
successful feeding in Vermont. Oneor
two calves are often extra, but here
eight We're selected, and it is feed and
breed that give such a uniform good re-
suit and a large profit on liberal feed

1,nprovem en. Of stock.

The Improvement of stock may seem
ingly be al expensive matter, but if we
will but notice that improvement is
simply an investment which never fails
to return n large dividend. there will be
less hesitation On the part Of those who
do not readily adoptnew methods in the
matter Of breeding stock.
Nature has wisely ordained that the
male reproduce itsels at will, while the
female, though capable ofreproduction,
is restricted toperiods and limits. The
former, therefore, is thus enabled to i'm
prove every herd and flock on his farm.
through the agency Of the males, an adj
vantage which permits him to con1ine
himself to improvement without the
assistance of thoroughbred females,
which would entail heavy expense on
those who make stock-raising in largo
numbers a speciality, but as the male
transmits it's qualities to it's offspring al.
most unerringly, the character of a head
u flock is completely changed in a
few years. Take any herd of common
stock, for instance cattle, and there viii
be no uniformity of color, size or shape.
BY the introduction of a thoroughbred
bull, the succeeding generation. which
will be half breeds, will show all the ad-
yantages of the cross in their improved
appearances, quicker growth, and pos
session of superior traits for the dairy
or the shambles. The improvement boz
ing carried further, the three-quarters
bred animals will be uniform in general
markings, color and points, thus maxi
ing the herd more attractive, as we'll as
further increasing their power Of pro-
duction.
As there is no possible limit to i'm
%provement, there should be no reason
for ever the federation or existence OF
scrub stock. Through the male line,
may be made changes Of structure in a
few seasons SO valuable and important
as to enhance the price of all the stock
on the farm, often the venture of an in
vestment in a thoroughbred male being
q turning step from loss to profit

pleasant, it is also true that farmers
may enjoy ample time for rest, aud
without financial loss. The work of the
farm requires more muscular eaertion
than that of the shop or desk, but it is
less combining and monotonous. Tho
clerk, b~ook-keeper and mechanic work
more hours a day. anda are more closely
confined than the average farm hand,
who has his evenings for himself.
The winter months, with their long
evenings, afford to the farmer compar-
alive leisure and ample time for rec
reation, amusement and intellectual
culture. They afford opportunity for
reading and study, and for laying plans
for future work and improvement.
The luscious fruits, fresh vegetables,
pure, rich milk and golden butter,
which are looked upon by the wealthy
residents Of cities rs luxuries, come to
the farmer directly from nature and at
little expense. The same articles are
bought by city people ut e~xtravagant
prices, after they have lost their fresh
ness and most desirable qualities. It
is unfortunate that farmers do not, as q
rule, better appreciate natures gifts.
The farmer deals directly with nature,
and the blessings which he should ap-
preciate and enjoy, more than counter
act the difficulties and disappointments
which fall in his path.
There is no reason why farmers may
not lead happy lives. Ambition, if car
ried too far, becomes a misfortune, and
excludes contentment and enjoyment.
But with an aim to live and to enjoy,
rather than to accumulate fortunes,
there is no calling better adapted TIC
comfort, contentment and real happi-
ness than agriculture.-Country Gen
tleman.

Hints fo- House Adjournment.

Housekeepers usually believe that the
great spring renovation is not satisfac-
tory without the addition OF "some new
thing" to the house. Paint and p
will accomplish q wonderful transfor-
nation, and little articles of n~eedlework
will give a freshness and grace for the
next seasons. Rattan chairs and
couches are upholstered in light chintz,
giving q summer appearance With com
fort.
The Decorator and Furnisher sup
plies this suggestion for the treatment
of walls and ceilings: "a lovely effect
is gained by having the walls clear
birds egg blue, with dado and frieze a
rich dark blue. while the woodwork is
a dull Indian red in two shades. or the
walls a pale yellow, with dada and fr1eze
a rich orange yellow. A low-toned
Antwerp blue and warm gray an wood
work is harmonious, while Pompeian
red and dado, and light red frieze, with
salmon-colored walls and two shades of
bronze green with dark red in grooves
on woodwork, presents an elegant ap-
~pearance."
A mistake is often made by selecting
carpets of the same color as the paper.
A contrast is preferable.
At the spring fairs embroidery has
been displayed with taste, and, alas,
sometimes with want Of taste. That
any n in these days of art work should
produce o greea tidy worked with an
inharmonious blue ribbon seems almost
Incredible, that some one else should
deliberately embroider a large, bright
pink perfume bag with yellow flowers
is also mysterious, but such evil deeds
and others like them are constantly OBJ
truding themselves before public notice.
Perhaps they are more noticeable be-
cause they are rare.
The crazy quilt mania still RACES,
but with less intensity. "If you could
see my especial beautiful quilt" the
needle workers exclaim, you would not
say that the making of it was time
wasted" The search for silk pieces
and peculiar stitches still continues.
Each silk square must pc surrounded
with q different variety of fancy stitch
and when the quilt is composed of one
hundred squares the nincty-ninth stitch
is often difficult to find. Aprons are
also made in the crazy quilt style, de-
pending in their effect upon the ingen-
uity of the maker. Plush balls are used
to edge these aprons.
A pretty idea for the lining of bureau
drawers is o scent bag of quilted pink
or blue silk. Over the quilted lining is
q covering OF pineapple silk, embroid.
cred with branches of daisies or yiolets
and edged with white lace. Bows OF
satin ribbon are placed at two of the
corners.
A toilet set made of silk covered with
the delicate cream pineapple silk is

ribbon. Tides. d. oyleys and mats are

Origin of the Smithsonian Institu.

Tho Smithsonian Institution received
its name from James Smithson, an Eng
fish physicist, who at his death be-
queathed his nephew E12O,O00, the
whole of his property, which in case the
nephew died without issue, was to go to
the Government Of the United States to
foasid at Washington an institution for
the diffusion of acknowledge. The bequest
took effect by the death OF the nephew
in 1885, and the Hon. Richard Rush was
sent to London to prosecute the claim.
In 1888 he deposited in the United
States Mint the proceeds, amounting to
S5l5, 1863. The act of 1916 appropriated
the interest from September /, 1888
when the money vas received, to July
1,1846, amounting to s242, 129, for the
erection of buildings snd other current
incidental expenses, and provided that
all future expenditures and appropria-
tions be made exclusively from accrning
interest and not from the principal Of
the fund. II is also declared the orig
inal fund to be lent in perpetuity to the
treasury of the United States at G per
cent, payable semi annually.

Smoke Of the Late Fires.

When the high winds first broughtin.
the dense volumes OF smoke sent forth
by the forest fires in the Cstskills and
the Jersey woods, no small degree Of
alarm was felt by manyin New York and
other cities and towns about this part Of
the Atlantic shores. 1t was feared that
an immense confiagration was under way
either in New York or Jersey City, and
the atmosphere was singulariy sugges-
tive of the dark hoursof the Chicago fire.
Every part of the horizon was befogged
with the penetrating smoke, and the
smell Of burning timber was oppressive.
The sun set rs a disk of brass and the
moon rose with facial evidences of be-
ing unusually full" The true cause
of the smulge was eagerly sought for
by the press and public, and great re-
lief was experienced in knowing that it
was the burning Of natures instead Of
mans temples.
