FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Farm Notes.

Wood ashes contain every element OF
food for plants except nitrogen, viz,
potash, lime, raagnesia, and phos-
phoric acid. They are, therefore, use
ful for any crop, but are especially
valuable for grass. From 40 to 100
bushels per acre may be used, and the
effect will be felt for many years.
There are very few or no steam
plows in use in Amtrica. The only
place where they can be used is on the
large wheat farms in the Northwest,
and there they have not been found
profitable, because they are used only
for a few days, or weeks, and then lie
idle the rest Of the year, costing some
expense to care for them. Meanwhile
just as many horses are required on
the farms to do the other work. 1t is
not probable that steam blowing will
ever re common in this country.
Good mutton is always in demand;
by improving u sheep tor meat, and
feeding better, sheepkeeping can be
made profitable even when wool is
low. Then when wool advances the
profit will be correspondingly in
creased. In England sheep are kept
principally for mutton, and although
good feeces are produced, yet the
sheep would return profit without the
wool. Our common sheep by crossing
with the best mutton sheep of Europe
may in a few years be so far improved
as to become good mutton producers,
Even the Merinos when crossed with
Cotswolds produce grades which, when
we'll fed, make goodmutton-nearly or
quite as good as any.
Agood preventative for shingles on
a roof is common pine tar laid on hot
so as to soak into the shingles. Orthe
shingles may be dipped in crude petro-
leuEl before they are laid, and left to
soak in tubs or barrels. Coal tar is
not a good material for preserving
wood, as it contains an acid which
causes the wood to decay: but if it is
mixed with lime to neutralize the acid,
and is then applied to the wood, it has
a better effect.

Slows Eating.

The idea OF rest and recreation and
elaboration in eating nc longer oc-
cupies the thought OF the american
boy. much less of the business men.
Yet the power OF ones life depends as
much upon this as upon any n con-
duct of life. The relation of the chew
ing and the Alices OF the mouth to the
after digestion, all along the digestive
track, and to that assimilation which
is to give force aud vigor to work, IS
such that We cannot afford to forget
the ssentialrelatiOnship Thefailure
of this part of the apparatus to dots
Dart does not involve immediate loss
of power or bed ridden sickness, but it
is a more frequent limitation upon
forCeful life than any one disability. A
thorough digestion not only leaves the
mind clear and the V system
placid, but so provides the physical
and mental machinery with it's pro
polling power as to make thought as
natural as if it were a physical funC-
ton. 1t is not difficult to see in the
work, as we'll as in the writings of some
men, the traces of a bad physical con-
dition. Emerson overstated the case
when he stated that the sick nan is
on the road to rascality; but, never
theless, did indicate what is true, that
a man in chronic state of embarrass-
ed digestion is out ofgear with himself
and the rest of mankind. We believe
that the foundation of many an in
capacity is laid in this want of quiet,
deliberate eating.-The independent.

milk before setting. When milk set in
ice-water directly after milking gave
100 pounds, milk that had been pre-
viously cooked to SO deg. gave 95.7
pounds, "a deg. gave 81 pounds, 4S
gave 1913 pounds. Ameans OF restor-
ing the original qualities OF such milk
was found in warming the milk to
about 1O4 deg. before setting.
Prof. Ford gives two general con-
illusions:
/. Shaking OF the milk before setting
is detrimental to a rapid separation
of the cream. Oftwo samples OF milk,
one being shaken before set aside, the
latter required eight hours to separate
7 per cent of cream, the time required
by the othert to separatethe samequan-
tity being only three hours.
2. Premature cooling Of the milk be-
fore setting is more serious in its effect
upon a thorough separation than the
first mentioned. Whenmllk conveyed
to 4 creamery ina common vehicle
by centrifugal separation gave 100
pounds of butter, a sample of milk OF
the same quaIfity and quality con-
veyed in the same manner. and set In
gave 9O.S pounds, while an
other sample that had been cooled,
transported as before, and then set IN
ice-water. gave only $40 pounds.

Pig Ailments.

In the first four or FIVE weeks after
their birth, diarrhoea carries off many
little pigs and greatly retards the
growth of others that may survive it's
attacks Improper feeding of thesow,
if.the pigs are sucking, and of the pigs
themselves, If weaned, is the promi'
nent cause, though often attacks are
brought Oh by breathing bad air,
drinking foul water, and taking cold.
III the pigs are sucking, the SOW should,
for a few days, be fed on something
less loosening; if the pigs are weaned,
the same general treatment should
prevail, and a tablespoonful of pre-
pared chalk given once or twice a day.
See that the pens or sleeping-quarters
are well ventilated and clean, and use
some chloride of lime and earheII;e
acid as deodorizers and disinfectants.
Constipation, though not fatal, or a
disease of itself, may, ifignored, leadto
serious results, and is Indicative of fe-
yer. Green, and any kind ofsoft, east
~ly-digested food is good, and bran
mashes prepared with hot swater, or
better yet, haxseed tea, are very use
.fnl. In obstinate cases an ounce of
EPSON salts may be used in an iniec-
flon Of warm soap-suds.

There is abundant evidence that in
nearly all parts of the United States,
where winter wheat is raised, that
there win be a very short crop. At
best it cannot exceed 225 600, 900
bushels, wnichis 125, 900, 900 less than
last year. This conclusion is come to
BY careful reports from all of the win
ter wheat regions. The season is now
to far advanced to change the acreage
of the spring wheat. In all corn grow
ing States it is greatly reduced in area.
But it Is too s0onx to even predict the
yield. Fairly in the season for sowing
wheat the lon price and the large
amount said to be on hand, deter
mined farmers in all spring whuat re-
gions to SOW less, and IN many locali-
ties to SOW none. But the
prospect for q war between Eng
lend and Russia somewhat mod
flied resolutions on this SUBJ
iect. But even this did not in
dnce farmers to SOW an average GUAM
tity. OF course in Minnesota and Da-
kota, where little else but wheat is
raised, the amount win not probably
be much, il any, reduced. But where
grass and corn are successful, and are
Che ruling products, there win be a
greatly reduced wheat crop. Goodcrop
~staticians say.tif the average Weld per
acre be equal to average years, there
will be q falling of of75,000, 000bush-
els. This viii make In winter and
spring wheat a deficiency Of 200, 00D,-
600 Bushels. This would be d serious
matter, not to be made up. by the
surplus now on hand. and the reduced
European demand. Wheatraisingi is an
Operation which starves the land and
the owner, and the future for d surplus
Of that important cereal is doubtful in
the extreme.-Des Moines Register.

Hot lamentations are very useful IN
many diseases and at this season OF
the year are especially so in the treat
ment of bowel complaints. | have
many times nearly blistered my hands
in wringing clothes from hot water for
this purpose, but II few years ago L
learned an easier and better way to
prepare them. Fold a piece OF flannel
of sufficient size into from four to
eight thicknesses. Dip it into very
hot water, taking care to saturate it
completely. With a stick lift 1t from
the water and lay it into a strong
towel, then wiring it by twisting the
ends of the towel. Have apiece ofdry
flannel twice the size Of the fomenta-
ton and lay it over the bowels or part
to be fomented. Lay the hot flannel,
which should be wrung so it will not
drip, over the dry flannel andfold over
it the extra part OF the dry flannel, so
rs to retain the heat as long as posi-
ole. BY this e the heat reaches
the skin gradually and a MUCH higher
temperature can be borne with less
discomfort than when Instrumentation
is placed next to the body.-Home

Mrs. H. Annette Poole, in Good House"
keeping.
You will find it a very hard task to
keep the sight and sound of bad read
ing away from Tom. It is everywhere.
If he does not see it at home some of
his school-mates will have their peck
cts filed with it.. Any quantity of
stories bearing such fascinating titles
as "The Mailman of the North Pole,
or the Boy Mazeppa of the Attic Seas"
which is an actual title, can be pur-
chased for five cents each, and in many
cases the buyers viii dispose of them,
after perusal, for two cents. Broad
sides containing wonderful pictures,
and the opening chapters OF such tales
are weekly distributed by enterpris-
ing newsdealers. And / think these
stories are far verse than they used
to be. For even pirate stories
had in them the smack OF the
blue ocean, and the fascination
Of white sails and tropical islands
and all the thousand and one charms
that visions of the sea summon up
before the eyes of an imaginative boy.
And Indian tales n the flavor ofthe
prairies and buffalo hunts, and of a
wild, free, open air life. But thesesto-
ries, which are thrust into Toms
hands and under his eyes at every cor
ner are mainly detective stories, and
the reader is led through the lowest
slums of New York and London,
crimes of the bloodiest and vicst ma
tura are depicted, and the language is
the worst of thieves slang. The In
dian fighter and pirate were pictured
as brave and chivalrous; but these vii
lians are only cruel and murderous
from the beginning to the end of the
story; and the only way to keep Tom
away from them is to fill his reading
hours SO full of something else that ne
will have no time for them until his
taste is so far formed that they viii
have no fascination for him, and the
remedy lies almost entirely IN the
hands of the mothers.

According to statistics gathered by
church paper, not more than 5 per
cent. of American artisans in cities
habitually attend religious services of
any kind. al but two OF the letters
say that the attendance is diminish
ing, and all but one that the neglect is
not from unbelief in Christianity. The
cause of non-church attendance, as
given by these experts, may be sum-
med up as follows: The men have to
work all the week, and they recreate
ON Sunday. They cannot dress as
well as those with whom they must as
sociate, and therefore stay away.
They think secret societies are as good
as the church. They are unable to
pay for the privileges because of the
high prices Of things which they must
have The large salaries Of the minis
tiers disgust some. Some feel that the
minister is q hireling, and therefore
seeks to uphuild his church as a doc
tor seeks to increase his practice, not
from love Of souls, but to increase his
salary. Some employers Of labor are
SO bad In their treatment of their en-
ployes that the men do not want to
90 where they snail meet those In
whose real Christianity they have SO
little faith.

per acre with the grass seed. This
affords protection forthe young grass
and clover in the fall and winter. We
have found it a good plan to leavethe
turnips on the ground and not gather
them. They WILDE killed by the frost,
and the leaves falling down furnish
protection to the grass during the win
ter, ana IN the early spring, when so
much damageis usually GONE by the
alternate thaws andfrosts. ThegraSs
will usually furnish one cutting the
same season. but it should not bepas-
tured, as the surface isnot firm enough
nor the plants sufficiently well rooted
to stand such a tax.
