Pure Water.

Look out for the well. See that there is
no drainage toward it. Provide spouts to
carry all Stops away from the house on tc
the grass and make surface drains, or
raise IA wide sloping mound around the
well to carry off all the water to distance
before it can sink down. The soil around
the buildings is continually being saturat-
ed with impurities, which will naturally
follow the course of the water and will in
time find their way into the we'll From
there it goes into family use in many ways.
1t is used as a beverage; it is used for
bathing, so the skin absorbs it !; it is boiled
in the kitchen, and the vapor continually
inhaled. Pure water is one of the Most

Farm Buildings.

In travelling about through the country
we have often noticed the want of suf6-
Gent and well arranged farm buildings.
OF course we have not expected to find,
in the newer portions of the country, all
the conveniences with which the farmer
in the older regions surrounds himself.
Several out-houses are needed on every
farm. and these require to be convenient
ly arranged in reference to each other,
and also in reference to one or more
yards for the accommodation and shastsz.
of stock. Barns. stables. sheds, p94.x..-z
wagon and tool house. are needed - i-a
smallest farm; and on the masE,r u
farms. dairy house. feed room. s2}.a
cooking apparatus, shop for rarp@'.
work and other indoor work, that may be
done on rainy days, are equally desirable.
1t would be difficult, perhaps impoasi-
BILE. to state the proper order in which
several of these buildings should be
PLACED, in relation to the house and princi-
pal barn. The arrangement must vary
with the character of the ground, and the
relative importance attached to each de-
partment. the aim, of course, being to
economize time and labor in waiting upon
animals and doing other necessary work.
When this subject has received sufficient
attention. and every farm has upon it the
necessary buildings, so that all crops may
be securely housed, every implement pro-
tected from the weather, and every ami
NAL provided with comfortable shelter,
and all the manure carefully saved,
though the soil were not made more fer
tile, nor the seasons more propitious, yet.
by avoiding the innumerable losses caused
by the want of good buildings, the net
profits of the farmer will be greatly in
creased.-1rtbune md Forn1er.

The Latest Tramp story.

He entered the coach like man who
owned stock In the road, and dropped
into seat near the window. When the
train started he took from his pocket a
little piece Of cardboard, which he stuck
In his hatband.
Presently the conductor entered the
car The man with the hat was inter-
ested in the scenery and did not look
around. When the conductor got with
in two seats Of him his interest in the
landscape became greater, and he stack
his head and hat out of the window in
order to get full benefit. The manipu-
lator Of the punch tapped the scenery
student on the shoulder with the re-
quest:
"ricket, please"
Like man suddenly aroused from n
deep revery, the passenger started and
quickly drew his head In. This opera
tion was only partially successful, how
ever, the sash striking the hat and
knocking 1t of his head and out of the
car.
"what do you mean? You have lost
my hiatt Stop the car and let me get 1t
at once, or | will sue you for damages.'
irately remarked the traveller.
The train was going 40 miles an hour,
and to stop and back would have caused
the loss of 10 minutes. This was out of
the question. The conductor considered
and concluded that he could not stop.
He once more asked for the ticket, but
In mild. hesltating manner, as If he
didn't know what else to say.
"My ticket" said the man of the lost
hat. Didn't you see it sticking In the
band of the hat you bunglingly, care
lessly knocked out the Window Oh,
you have the nerve, you havel But |
shall report you to my friend Harahan
and have you dismissed, l shall"
And the conductor passed tremblingly
on his dreary way, while the man whose
friend was the general manager, spread
himself out on two full seats and took a
nap.
When the beat left the car at Nash
Vile little slip Of paper was found
lying on the seat he had occupied. On
1t was scribbled:
"Mr. Conductor:-This is a old trix,
but 1t wurked beautiful, that hat cost &c
