When to Sell Bufter.

The National Live Stock Journal ad,
vises farmers that the best time to sell
butter or cheese, and indeed all farm
produce, is the earliest date at which it
can be got in condition for market.
Whoever holds butter or other perish
able goods, holds them at a risk. But
ter depreciates from the moment it is
made to the moment it is con-
sumed, and is always liable to fuct-
uatioDs In price, which are as often
against the holder as in his favor, and
be IS always losing the interest on its
value as long as he holds it. Holding
for higher price is one form of specula-
ton business farmer has no occasion
to indulge IN. 1t Is true, rise in prop
erty may sometimes be foreseen, making
it pretty safe to hold for time, but
when dairyman would not think it
wise or safe to buy butter or cheese to
hold 1t for better price, he had better
not hold his own butter or cheese. The
fact that it turns out that he might
sometimes have done better by holding
than by selling, when his goods are first
ready for market, is not a sufficient rea-
son for his holding at another time, for
he chances will as often be against him
as for him. and, whichever way it is, he
must always endure the losses from in
jury, shrinkage, lessened value, waste
and use of capital. Therefore, as rule,
we say it is most prudent to sell always
when products are ready for market,
and most especially so with butter,
which is ever suffering from decline in
quality.

Real Mean.
From the Chicago Herald.


Two young ladies were overheard
talking glibly and cophdentially on a
suburban train.
"Now, Mary" said one, "tell me why
Charley and you quarreled."
Because he's q ninny, that's the
reason. You know he's been coming
to see me for over two years, and I
could see just as plain as anybody else
that he was head over heels IN love
with me. But he didn't seem to have
any snap to him, and got real impa-
tent, just as any girl would have done,
A few nights before Christmas he
called to see me and before he went
away says: Charley, want TO make
you Christmas present, but / want to
be sure it will suit you. It is some
| thing real nice, warm, useful and orna-
| mental, and viii always stay with you.
| "A scarf?' he says. No, not scarf ]
| said, though it might embrace you. It
| weighs about hundred pounds, and
I've heard You say you thought it very
precious oh, l know he says, "a BIZ
cycler By this time l was nearly mad
| but made one more effort. Not BIZ
cycle,' | says, but it can walk, has 8
mouth, eyes, pretty hair, and Is very
affectionate.' Now I know he said
and what do you think the ninny
guessed that time? A big Newfound'
land dog. I was never so disguised in
my life, and have not seen Charley
since. He's treated me real mean, and
now leap year is gone, and 1 just hate
him. Oh, there he is now at the other
end of the car. Amt he sweet? / wish

A. s. Chamberlain, for forty years proprit tor
Of the Bulls Head Stables, New York City, in
reference to the values OF different breeds Of
draft horses, said
II keep exchange and sale stables for horses
Don't deal on my own account TO any exteat.
Ali classes of horses, amounting to several
thousands annually, come TO my stables from
all sections of the country. A large number of
these are draft horses OF the different breeds,
the Clydesdales, the French horses called
Percherons or NormanF, the English and Eel
glan. There seems to be larger demand for
the French horses than for any other breed.
'Some years ago We used 10 get a great msny

good feet and stand the psvements better than

The Duck Profitable,

The duck, says an exchange, is pecul-
iarly the poor mans bird, its hardness
renders 1t SO entirely independent of
that care which fowls perpetually re-
qulre; and, indeed, all those classes of
humble life who have sloppy offal of
some sort left from their meals and do
not keep pig to consume it, ducks are
the best save-waste for them. Even
the refuse of potatoes or any other vege-
tables will, with a little bran meal, sat
lsfy a duck, which 1t thankfully accepts,
and, with a degree of good nature
which it is pleasant to contemplate,
swallows whatever is presented to it.
and very rarely occasions trouble.
Though fowls must be provided with a
roof and decent habitation, and sup
piled with corn, which is costly, the cot
tage garden waste and snails and slugs
which are generated there, with the
kitchen scraps and offal, furnishes the
hardy ducks with the means of subsis-
tence. And at night they require no
better lodging than nook in an open
shed. If a habitation be expressly
made for them it need not necessarily
be made more than a few feet in height
nor OF better materials than wattles and
clay mortar, door being useless, unless
TO secure them from thieves. 1t should
be added that ducks should not be
turned out In the morning until or 8
o'clock, during the season of egg produc-
ton, otherwise the eggs may be lost

Form Good Resolu lions,

In the long winter evenings, it is a
good time to resolve what you will do
when the season for active duties on the
farm arrives again. One good resolu-
ton would be to raise more produce on
less acres. The great fault is, where
land is cheap, to spread out too wide,
and talk of the glories of many acres,
instead of harvesting many bushels. It
will be profitable also TO resolve not to
use mere scrub or grade, of any class
of animals, as breeders on the farm.
Notwithstanding it is claimed that the
corn CRIB and clover pasture make more
than half of the blood, yet pure blood
adds beauty, prosperity and bulk to the
animals which consume the corn and
the clover. Almost every neighbor-
hood Is wishing that some good, active
and intelligent man would come along
and buy outs certain slovenly and care
less farmer, who by his bad manage
ment is disgrace to the neigboorhood
and who, by the way he starves his
lands and consequently raises starvation
crops, is greatly injuring the price of
land and the character of the neiehbor-
hood. The way TO counteract this bad
influence, is for every farmer in the
township to till his farm so much better.
and by careful use of manure and clover
aud rotation of crops, as to convince
every traveller that it is the best neigh
borhood for rich land and intelligent
citizens in America. Study this winter
how you can add new beauty to, and
more comfort for your family and stock

Horniess Cattle.

In an article on the subject of horn
less cattle, the Prairie Farmer gives the
following method of removing horns
from calves: When a calf of a horned
breed is few days old, little Jumps will
be found on the head, indicating the
spots where the horns will grow, if not
prevented by the prompt removal of the
little buttons of incipient horn, lying
}oose beneath the skin. To remove
hem, two small Sits, crossing at right
angles, are made with q sharp knife.
The buttons can them be easily lifted
mt, the slight wound closed with bit
- sticking plaster, and the work is done.
Some prefer to scar the spot where the
norns are to be, using very hot iron,
nat the operation may be more quickly
'nd effectually done. One or two
shakes of the head express the calls dis
approval of the fashions of the world
which are yet quite new 70 the young
ster, and that seems to be the last OF
suffering on account of the horns of that
animal. As there is no way in use for
determining the exact extent of the suf-
fering of any animal from an injury, one
must decide for himself whether or not
the pain attending this operation on
Young calves is equal to the suffering
their horns would infiict upon other an
imals, if those dangerous and useless
weapons were permitted to grow. As
to the economy of the operation, there
will be no doubt in the minds of those
who have lost valuable animals, or much
feed, patience or profit, through the ex-
istence of horns on mischievous or vi
cious brutes.

he springs out of a sound sleep in the
night and darts out of doors. Before
quitting the house he never ails to go

During the day he lies on the floor. al

A Boston Bean Story.

From the Boston Journa.l
A Florida youth who bought q pair
of shoes without trying them on found
on reaching home that they were just
an eighth of an inch too small all around.
He thought, however, that he would en-
large them sufficiently by the bean"
process, 80 he filled each shoe to the top
with large, white beans-the variety
that swell nearly double their size
gave them all the water they would
hold, and then left them over night to
the mercy of the beans. In the morn
ing he found that they had increased in
size from No. 5 to apparently No. s, and
that the uppers had raised up on one
side, exposing huge creyasse and al
lowing the beans to escape for several
feet around. The next time he viii pare

For the Kitchen Scrap Book.

FINGER marks can be removed from
wall paper by rubbing them with
crust OF bread. Rye or brown bread is
best.
AN oyster shell in the teakettle will
prevent the formation Of crust. The
oyster shell will attract all the stony
particles.
TEPID water with little borax dis
solved in it is good to wash colored
table linen In. Nice tablecloths and
napkins should not be allowed to be-
come much soiled, SO that they will re-
quire vigorous rubbing with soap or in
hot water.

WHEN packages are sent home fold
up all the good wrapping paper, run

badly crumpled, lay each kind in pile
by itself, either in box or cupboard, and
many steps will be saved when piece

IF you wish to sweeten floor that

In the year 1853 Mr.. L. Q. burnand

him that TO burlesque the sensational

editor of Punch, to whom he wrote,
asking for an appointment to discuss a
good idea for his paper. Mark Lemon
