WASHINGTON, March ll.-It is the gossip
here today and tonight that ex-State Au-
ditor Miller, of West Virginia, is to be ap.
pointed Commissioner of Internal Revenue
to succeed Walter Evans. The West Yir-
ginians at the Capitol to-day said that they
had been assured that Auditor Miller's Sc
lection had been decided upon and his nom,
iuation was looked for today, but as it did
not come in they look for it tomorrow.
1t seems there is no objection to ex-Rep-
resentative Thompson personally, but it is
held that the appointment ought not to be
held BY Kentucky. State so deeply inter-

saAPs VINES ABOUT THE HOUSE.

Very few famers care to spend
time " fnssing over" little matters
like scattering grape vines; indeed
it is not beyond truth to say that
not more than one in ten OF our
farmers have anv grape vines at
all about their houses or on their
premises anywhere. 1t is a mis-
taken idea that grape vines or any
other small fruit, for that matter,
are not worth taking care Of.
Grapes need only good soil and a
place to climb on /; then, if you will
only keep weeds away from them,
and cut off a few branches every
winter, you may have fruit of the
most luscious and healthfnl kind
every year, which is worth a hun
bred times more than the little
labor bestowed upon them.
To such OF our readers as have
not given any thought to this sub
ject, we want to urge the planting
of grape vines in hooks and corners
about the house, whether you have
a vineyard or hot. When the
writer was q boy he occasionally
paid a visit to an old friend in town
who had one grape vine in his back
yard, set about ten or twelve feet
back from the house, and it was
neatly trained up over a high trel-
lis that was built like a " lean-to
against the house. That single
vine, on the south end Of a large
brick house, furnished shade all
the hot days of the year, cooling
that part OF the house, the wind
conveying the rich fragrance of its
foliage through the open doors and
windows, and the fruit produced
annually by the single vine was
almost incredible in quantity.
Hundreds of large, bright clusters
ofbeautiful fruit nestled among the
green leaves, furnished healthfnl
refreshnent for a family many
days.
That was many years ago but
the lesson Of that vine has not yet
spent its force. We are now train
ing one for a similar purpose.
Vines may be set about the dwell
ing, about the outhouses, in corners
and odd places where they are noe
in the way at all, and yet their
value is very great. Half a dozen
good vines we'll taken care Of will
supply a large family with all the
fresh grapes needed with plenty
for company. And q little vine
yard of FIVE vines each way, occu-
pying q space equal to forty feet
square, will furnish any family a
good years supply for all kinds Of
use. ia farmer does not care to
devote any ground or time to such
small matters, if hewill only let the
women folk and, the. boys and girls
have the matter in charge he will
soon become interested in the work
and give the subject an occasional
look Of dignifed acquiescence.-

A HINT.

There is moro merit in the CON-
mon COWS Of the country than they
get credit for. Give them the
same pampering that the thorough
breds get, and the thorOughbreds
the scanty, bare and hard treat
ment the common stock get, and a
few generations will suffice to bring
them both to the same level. The
thoroughbreds are what they are
from good food and good treatment.
How readily the common COWS
respond to a little more generous
supply of food than they are ac.
customed to enjoy, is well illustrat-
cd in the experience of the present
season. Favored with an abun-
dance Of rain 10 make flush pastur-
a &c, the cows which depend wholly
on grazing have been better sup.
piled with food than they usually
are, and the result is something
like % per cent. more butter and
cheese than they are accustomed
to make in the first half Of the
season. Their products are always
large when the season is favorable
for an abundance of grass, but
when in the vicissitudes Of the
weather the heavens are less gener-
Gus, and drouth makes feed On
fortunately short, milk and its pro-
ducts dwindle to the opposite ex-
IRENE, and there are loud COM
plants Of the "scrub cows" and
the owners begin to look around
for better breeds. 1t is a good idea
to look for a better breed, but it
will require a pretty sharp lookout
to find a breed Of COWS that will
give full returns from half fare, Or
do any better than the so.called |
{" native COWS when there is a
lack of food to make milk from.
When our dairy friends have
such ample opportunity for witness
ng the difference between full and
'canty rationS, why can't they
utilize the hint and see to it that
heir herds have full fare all the
season whether the heavens smile
II frown. A little comparatively |
Inexpensive preparation for soillng
With green food in case pasturage
hOuld be scanty, would meet any
emergency and secure returns so
and uniform that instead
# despising his cows it would in
pirc an inclination to admiration
