How to cultivate the sunfower is to- Id
by a writer in the Rural Home, as fol-
flows: The Mammoth Russian is the
largest, best and most productive varie-
ty, and should be planted the same as
corn, leaving one stalk in the hill. You
can begin planting early In the spring,
and continue until the last of June, but
the earlier they are planted the larger
they will grow. I raised heads last
year from twelve to twenty-five. inches
in diameter. They averaged one quart
of seed to the head. It Will yield more
grain per acre than corn, and of more
value. The average yield is sixty to
one hundred bushels per acre. From o
half acre l raised eight wagon loads of
heads that l gathered in the fall, be-
sides what 1 fed. Ibegan to feed my
poultry sunfower seed the 10Th of
August; it is the best egg-producing
food known for poultry. They eat
it greedily, fatten we'll on it, increase in
eggs. 1t is fully recommended by
poultry-breeders who have tried it as
an excellent and cheap food for fowls.
1t keeps them healthy, prevents chicken
cholera, and should be fed to laying-hens
three times o week. For show birds
on exhibition, a short diet of ~sunfower-
seed gives their feathers an extra glossy
coat. During cold weather the seed
serves the same purpose as oil in lamps,
and furnishes fuel to keep up the AMI
NAL heat. 1 feed one gallon to 40 hens,
per week, all the season. 1t will grow
on almost any soil where fruits and
grain will not grow; along side of fences
or any place where the soil is not SO
easily cultivated. Iplanted q low piece
of ground last year that was hard and
lumpy. In the fall the ground was mel
low as a garden, as the large leaves
absorb the moisture from the soil and
leave it valuSble for other crops.

Anna B. McMahan In The Current.
During the difficult and arduous period
breaking in" a new girl, most women
say: do thus and do so, because this is
my way" when the back is turned. in
stantly the maid does it another and
probably a poorer way, because it is her
way. But if my way were shown to be
the best one and for what reasons and
it were seen tlatthe lady herself found it
no less fitting and beautiful to practice
the best way in the work of the kitchen
than in her other affairs, then the work
seems no longer mental but dignifed.
Though tedious at first it pays because
Of the principle involved. For the
same reason it is a great advantage to
make friendly visits to the kitchen, list
en- to experiences, discuss methods, be-
cause this shows a respect for the work,
and is MS far as possible from that ia
miliarity which breeds contempt" which
comes from mere chat. There are hun
dreds of little ways in which a mistress
with tact and q genuine respect for the
work and the worker, can make this felt
and as On incentive to good work it is
beyond calculation.
Then, the average mistress is often
guilty of ignoring the sensibilities of
her h~and-maiden. Grant all that may
be said of the ignorance. dullness, in
difference, Incidence, extravaganza, re-
b~elliousness, and recklessness of the
present body of domestic workers, still
these difficulties are not met in the right
way and spirit. 1t is not in the right
way when children are allowed to make
sport of the blunders, when q lady cor
reefs them in the presence of guests or
others, nor when she "nags" continually,
nor when she holds up the virtues of
some predecessor, nor when she re-
proves every wrong and failure but fails
to praise generously the successes or
approximations thereto.
