The Asparagus Bed.

The families of the farmers who give them
a variety of good things to eat are handsomer
and more intellectual than those of the old
hunkses who live on salt pork and saleratus
biscuit the year round. Fact. Keep it be-
fore. your minds eye 1t viii be the aim,
therefore, in this column to constantly place
before our readers suggestions looking to
variety and high quality of fruits and vege.

started in the fall, but it is much better now
than not at ALL Take a rather light,
sandy loan, well drained Work il
thoroughly and cover it with six
inches of manure. Work this in carefully
in trenches to the depth of two feet. Plant
bed about so long with six rows, the rows
three feet apart, plants nine inches apart.
Set the crowns of the plants three inches be-
low the surface Van Siclxlen's Colossal is
the bost variety to plant The bed will last
your lifetime Every fall give it top-dress-
ing of manure three or four inches deep. In
the spring. just about this time, fork the
manure lightly into the bed. Properly
cooked, nothing is more delicious and health
full than asparagus.

MODEL CHICKEN COOP.

It is copied from The American Poultry
Yard, and is rat proof, cat proof and weazel
proof. AS you see, it is practically cage Of
wire netting, made large enough for the
young chicks to spread and sun themselves in
the early stages of their existence. The
covered boarded part of the coop furnishes
shelter, and the wire lets the sunshine and
air through. The only trouble with this coop
is that, at the present outrageous tariff duties
on iron, it would be rather expensive.
PROFITS OF POULTRY.
The railing of fowls is becoming so extern
sive branch Of industry that its Importance
should be recognized For that reason we
have gone into it at some length. A story is
going the rounds which is very good, whether
it is true Or not Eight years ago, soft is said,
man near Philadelphia took farm that
paid its owner only 800 a year. He went
into the poultry business. , He mixed brains
with the labor of his hands He worked hard
and economically He added to his knowl-
edge and his plans year by year, His sales of
poultry and eggs for 1884 amounted to S10,-
900. When the fruit trees he has planted in
his hen grounds come into bearing he expects
to get much more money. Hishen houses are
made of tarred paper or square-edged boards
for roof and back plenty of glass in 'front.'
and eight square feet of space to each hen.
He feeds three times day in winter, liber-
ally, and twice day in summer He white
washes the houses thoroughly and often.

Young Men at Home.

Detroit Free Press.
Many young men are always ready
to accept invitations to other peoples
home circles. They are very much
more attentive to other peoples sisters
than to their own. A young man
should be found at his home, and spend
sufficient time there for his Influence
to tell upon the family, and for him to
cultivate manly dispositions that will
be blessing to him in years to come
Many young men are like crows; they
come back to their nest to roost, and
at dawn of day haste to other fields.
Young men, don't waste your strength
and your brains in aDybody's company
when you ought to be in your family
circle, in the house of your father and
mother. l think it is duty and OBJ
legation that you should be attentive
to the requirements and needs of your
sisters. Why not sometimes take your
sister out for walk? Why not some
times take her to a concert? Why
not bring home presents and gives
them to her? Why, when you come
home, should you be sullen, and silent,
and morose, as though somebody had
been treading on your corns all day.
Why not come home and tell those
who have been shut upall day some Of
theincidents that have happened during
the day, and be bright and cheerful
and so contribute your share to the
family joy, and you will have it al
back again in a sisters love.

The Dairyman's Duty.

Mr.. f. x. Moreland, prominent
dairyman of New York says that in
these days of small profits and limited
DIVIDENDS it behooves the farmer to
pay especial attention to class Of stock
kept on the farm. The dairyman
should strive to make his profits as
large as possible. 1t is duty to do the
best he can. 1t has been proved until
the figures make us all tired that a
herd of scrub COWS cannot make the
profit that herd of grades or
thoroughbreds will, Mr.. MOreland
gives it as the first duty of the dairy
man to see that his heifer calves of his
own breeding are better than their
mothers. The best way to bring about
this very desirable end, he thinks, is
by the use of thoroughbred Jersey
bulls. He points out the fact, how-
ever, that it is poor economy to buy a
Jersey bull just because he is cheap.
The farmer should pay attention to
the breeding of the bull 1t will pay
the farmer to make something of a
study of the Jersey records. After
understanding the business, and know
ing something of what a good Jersey
really is the farmer should select the
best bull that can be bought at reas.
enable price, and then raise as many
good heifer calves as possible, and
then use a good Jersey bull on these
half breed animals. The dairy result
will be most pleasing.

True To Life.

Southern World.
One, day as walked along the beach
saw a timid child steal forth, drawn by
the murmurs of the waves till, fright
ened by their ominous sound, it started
back and fled to its mothers arms.
Again l walked abroad and saw the
child steal forth casting timid glances
as it went this time, a little longer
lingering then, back to its mothers
door it fled as if some evil spirit on its
track pursued. Then a dark spell
bound me to my room and for awhile
the little one to my sight was lost.
Enticed by the sunlight once again |
walked abroad and to my astonished
saze the child was by the shore, plung
ing its tiny hand into the briny wave
till tired out it once again went to its
mothers root. Again l went to see
the child and whispered in its ear the
dangers of the deep, but fearless grown
it laughed my fears to scorn and boast
ed of its strength to breast the waves.
1t stirred nay soul to see the little one
throw off all caution and its feet the
waters tread, further out it ventured
as madness gave it confidence to stem
the tide, till intoxication led it out be,
You'd its depth, a mighty wave upon it;
bosom bore it out never more to touch
its tranquil shore. Oh God the hor-
rors of that moment as it screamed
and struggled to be free, but out it went

this year, her pullets have given her 107 dozen
eggs, which she sold for cash, q cents to "a
cents a dozen. A young lady living near her
made SlO0 off eggs and poultry last year
Added to other sources of income on the farm,
this is by no means to be despised.
LICE ON FOWLS
Get the Persian insect powder, mix with an
equal quantity Of sulphur Clear up all litter
from the floor of the hen house. Rub the
mixture upon the head and neck, between the
legs, and under the wings Of each bird. Keep
the flock penned up an hour or two, and then
let them out to shake, themselves. Take boil
ing water, throw into it carbolic acid crystals
in proportion of one ounce to half gallon,
and with that scald thoroughly the floor
where the fowls Stood This is valuable as a
di'infoctent. Sprinkle the nests once in
while with n solution twice as strong.
HEN NOTES.
Sunfower seeds are excellent to mix with
poultry food. The Mammoth Russian sun
flower is the best to raise for this purpose.
Pick yoHr market chickens dry Note this
from The Farm Journal: "We know of no
market where dry picked poultry does not
command two or three cents more per pound
than scalded stock, and yet farmers in some
sections continue the practice of scalding,
when dry picking is just as easy and expe-
ditious."
The best poultry raisers no longer allow
cocks to run at large with the hens. They
are kept separate. One rooster to IL hens is
the proportion In February the hens de-
sired as settlers are placed in a breeding pen,
and the cocks with them, one at a time. Each
is allowed to remain with the hens two or
three days. Thus eggs for Matching are fer
tilted. The ROSTERS, when kept with the
flock promiscuously, eat food like hogs, and
give no return for it. They fight constantly,
and harrow up the nerves of the flock
Note this about killing poultry for market.
Put a strap around the leg Of each bird you
intend to kill. Hang it up head downwards
The blood will speedily rush to its head and
stupefy it, so that it cannot squawk or Stop"
1t is speedily in c~Ndition approaching uD-
consciousness In tnis state open its BILL and
with one stroke of sharp knife bleed it in
the root of the mouth. 1t will soon bleed to
death. The method is similar to the approved
one in the great city abattoirs for the slaugh-
tering of beef-cattle. 1t is the only humane,
scientific and decent one. Never send poultry
to market with the unsightly bloody neck
stump sticking out. Send them with the
heads still on.

A Fasting Girl.

In Cincinnati sixteen-vear.old girl
recently died after fast of fifty-two
days. She had beed attacked by
something like paralysis which rem
dered it impossible for her to take

not thrive without good food and good
ability to dirgest it. Weak and inns

Iron Bitters-better than any other

FASHIONLETS.

A trimming of fine batiste embroidered
with cardinal red floss is manufactured es-
pecially for thin summer dresses. 1t is very
pretty.
One of the most interesting items to many
will be the announcement that satini, sam
brocades and fabrics with satin grounds, al
black and colors, win continue to be worn a.
much as ever before Plain satin means the
duchesse and mervellieux rather than the OH
fabric
Poplin may be said with certainty to haze
become fashionable; not only has the Princess
Beatrice ordered dresses from that fabric for
her trousseau, but her highness of Colonna
had two poplin dresses her outfit. One of
ivory white, for evening wear, was embroi-
dered all over in design of silver thread
another, for street wear, Of soft silver gray,

There is no one best breed of fowl. The
brown Leghorns are perhaps the best layers.
An egg is an egg, and it is said that healthy
Leghorn hen will lay 200 or more eggs year.
But these fowls are not large, consequently
not the best for market. For this the great,
good-natured Asiatics come in, among the
frst At tho head of these stands the light
Brahma, the picture of a cock of which breed
is seen above. Some of the cocks weigh
nearly 20 pounds. Their average weight is

one breed. One successful hen man prefers
Polands. Then there is the Cochin, similar to
the Brahma. Below is picture of q fine hen

How to Use Skim MIX.

Cows viii readily learn to eat skim milk.
There is an advantage in this, for there are
times when more milk is produced than can
be proftably fed otherwise. Beside the cows
that are taught to eat the greatest variety Of
food are always the best mixers. But in
most places all the skim milk can be more
proftably fed to pigs and poultry than to any
other stock. Skim milk for hens viii set
them to laying. It abounds in albumen,
from which the white of the egg is formed.

The Pickles,

The cucumber is profitable crop to raise
for the garden. Sow upon square bits of sod
in the cold frame, so that the plants can be
set out in the open ground when the frost is
gone. Early planthgs are better than late
ones. Sow in rich, moist soil. The cucum-
Der, more than most other vegetables, needs
plenty of water. Successive paintings a

kind for summer use. 1t is also good for
picking. So is the Gherl1in or Burr.

Give the Girls a Chance.
Michigan Farmer.

Farmers ought to give their girls a pig or a
calf, and when they are sold give them the
money. l know one girl who had a nice
heifer calf given to her, and she kept it till it
grew up, and sold it for $50, and kept the
calf, and that is two years old now Another
girl was told if she would feed the pigs corn
at noon she might have one of them; she
never forgot them, and when they were sold
she had the money and put it out at interest
Just give the girls chance and they will do
something for themselves.
