1t will doubtless open the eyes OF
some young society people who have
recently tried housekeeping after the
most approved modern plan, to learn
that this can easily be done for $55;
and that, too, with only small part
of the total cost in pocket, if the time
payment privilege should be taken ad-
vantage of. Or this basis $75 will
clothe, pay wedding expenses, barring
. tour, and will start u young man in
good style, and marriage dwindle
from mountain to mole hill. Hav-
respectable neghborhood, the first
thing the pair will want is the furni-
ture. If they keep their eyes in one
direction they can get it, and out of a
furniture shop, at little cost. They
can purchase substantial imitation
walnut bed for So, mattress for the
same price, and spring for 81; six
chairs will cost So, a washstand 80,
dining table 49, so, bureau 81, kitchen
table lilo, two pillows S1.20. making
q total of 1924. 90 OF course this pre-
sumes that they are beginning at this
time of the year, when no prepara-
tions for cold weather will be needed,
and also that the lady has been indus
trious enough to provide herself with
linen and covering. The next impor-
tant consideration is the kitchen. A
gasolene stove can be obtained for $5,
or cook stove as low as 81. At this
time of the year the young woman
will take the gasolene stove as far the |
more comfortable and convenient of |
the two. This, with the necessary |
utensils, will cost about SO. China Will
be the next thing to be got. By due
attention to details, a set of china
large enough for family of two or
three, can be obtained for $5, and
set of glasses for % cents. A toilet
set will cost So. %. These are all good
ware, not Clipped or broken, but new
Ind sound. A half-dozen each of tea
md tablespoons, silver-plated, will
cost $3.50, and set of knives and
orks with carvers, will cost $1.75
Very cheap carpets can be bought, but
IS neat and comfortable substitute
IS can be found will be tasteful ingram
ug, and the young man can spend
eisuro hour painting the floor
round it. This rug, large enough
or moderate-sized room, can be
ad for SO.
This will complete the list of abso-
olutely necessary things, and it will
nm nm O followe.

A Mean Medium.

A widow who had recently lost her
mother attended spiritual seance
and desired to communicate with the
spirit of her husband.
"Have you met dear mamma In
heaven George HenryP"
Promptly the answer came back:
eyes, | have, and I'm going down to
spend the summer"
Here the widow said the medium
was a "mean. nasty thing" and the
connection was broken. = Woonsockef

Combining Grass and Grain Feeding.


The farmer who wishes to make the
greatest grain and profit in cattle breed
ing will find it, I think, by combining
grass and grain feeding. In correspond
ing with some large cattle feeders IN
Illinois, have learned that in no other
way can so large and uniform gain be
had. Some facts connected with this
are worthy of notice: First, that it
takes but about half so much corn to
fatten an animal when on good pasture
as when on dry feed, one peck of corn
day giving as good results as half .
bushel in cold winter weather; second,
cattle on grass are in no danger of over
eating corn, 80 as to produce founder
or indigestion, and as there are no win
ter storms to contend with the gain is
uniform; third, u pasture sufficient for
ten cattle without grain will furnish
grass for twenty if fed what corn they
will eat; fourth. the profit on cattle will
be rather from improving the grade, SO
as to get an advance in price, than from
what is added to their weight, and grass
and grain together will make the finest
cattle, which will bring the best prices.

This estimate, OF course, suppOses
that both rooms have closets large
enough for clothing and household ar
tlcles and supplies. If such is not the
case, commodious wardrobe can be
supplied for $3.50. and kitchen safe
can be added for $3.50. This will add
total of $9,'making the total cost
1854. To most young people this will
be going to housekeeping on a very
narrow margin, probably too narrow
for the majority, but it can be done,
and there can doubtless be an i'm
mense amount of solid comfort and
in the little house. st.

The outlook for winter wheat is be-
coming a matter Of considerable inter-
est to the growers Of spring wheat, as
the crop Of winter wheat viii govern to
some extent the price Of this years crop
Of spring. A gatherer of wheat statis-
tics in Milwaukee has adyices from many
Of the wheat growing states, and he
says the complaint seems general that
owing to the unreasonable FALL and win
ter the condition of winter wheat is
most unfavorable and the promise for
even a fair outcome not very fattering.
Michigan, Illinois, Kansas and Missouri
report q large decrease In acreage, and
owing to the severity Of the winter the
damage has been very great. The
weather has been unusually cold and
many Of the principal wheat counties
have been bare Of snow up to within til,
past week, and the wheat IS wholly
frozen ont, which Will necessitate pillow,
ing up in the spring and the sowing OF
planting of other cereals. He has ad
vices from all the agricultural depart
ment 81 statistical agents Of the princi.
pal winter wheat raising states, giving
the area sown TO wheat as compared
with last y5ear. The figures show .
large decrease, ranging from 10 to 8
per cent. Many Of the large producin,
states, including Kansas, Missouri an.
Indiana, show q larger decrease.

Speaking Of the business prospects
for 1856, the Savannah News says: "Ir
the South the outlook is more encourag-
ing than IN any other part of the country,
Che cotton crop was good and the price

raising a larger per cent. of their OWL
supplies than ever before. They are
therefore IN a much better condition
financially than the farmer of the West
Factories that were closed for a time
during the summer have started NJ
again and now appear to be fairly pros,

depression in business began has the
situation in the South been as gloomy
as it has been In the North"

'"The best laid plans Of men and MICE"
The poet says, gang sft agley,"
And though D poet sometimes lies,
In this case truth holds the sway.
There was q man, deep in whose soul
Poetic fancies held high place;
His name WAS Rose, q pleasant name,
With more or less Of grace.
Unto this Rose the angels brought
A dear, delightful child,
A very bud Of promise, and
The father called her Wild"
A wild Rose, then, she was to all,
The sweetest flower that doomed and grew
On breezy hill, in woody dell,
Midst daisies kissed by dew.
The years were numbered one by one,
With much of i'll and much Of good,
Until our Wild Rose, fresh and fair,
Blushed into womanhood.
And then there came the low'ring clouds
OF circumstance, the murky fog
OF actual life, and she was we'd
Her husbands name was Hogg.

Only 500 600 of the old bonded debt
of Illinois remains unpaid, and, inter.
est on that having stopped two or three
years ago, the presumption is that it
will never be called for. Whoever may
be the loser, the state will be the gain
err. The state government is out Of
debt, and has about 50, 900, 900 cash on
hand. This is a proud record for a

which is better in the pockets of the PEG
pie than in the state treasury.

Almost all the patients refusedto cooperate
in the efforts being made to save them, and
were only rescued by being dragged from the
flames and forcibly prevented from returning,
A marvellous escape was that of an inmate who
fell with the second floor, struck the burning
debris above the furnace and bounded through
a window to the ground uninjured The re-
mains of the bodies Of twelve patients have
been taken from the ruins, burned to fra6-
ments, only to be identified by the location IN

Several legislatures are trying to pre-
vent the sale of Oleomargarine under
the guise of dairy butter. The sale OF
the counterfeit stuff, in bills under con,
sideration, is not absolutely prohibited,
but it must not be sold as butter. II
must go under its own name, which is
not a savory thing anyway, without ref,
erence to its quality, about which there
is some difference of opinion.
