Profit in Fruit Raising.

With all the tons of grapes raised,
how is it there is not a grape syrup to
be had for love or money in market
If you don't know that grape juice
boiled down to clear syrup is the most
relishing thing in sickness or health,
for consumptives, and to keep people
from getting consumption, to be eaten
as food or diluted for drink that would
ban1sh wine sooner than the temper
ance societies, you have something
to learn This article once known,
would prevent all danger of an
over crop of grapes, for it would be
made and kept by the barrel, and ex-
ported for use in all climates. The
new production of cider jelly, which is
merely cider boiled down, without any
addition till it is solid. dark jelly, is a
great gift to the housekeeper, and will
be the salvation of the apple orchards.
What if apples are fifty cents barrel
in October? Set the cider mills going,
and the huge enamelled evaporating
pans. Perhaps cider jelly at 70 cents
pound will pay you, as there is no sugar
to be used.-Susan Power in Vickis

The New Hats And Bonnets.

| From a Late Fashion Letter.
There is little that is new in shape In
bonnets, but much that is new in trim
ming. The small capote still fingers,
but shows many varieties of brim.
Some are curved in at the top and flare
like little outspyead wings. Others
copy the Marie front of the Marie Stu
ant head-dress. Still others show
modified poke. ALI have a brim of
some kind, and are not mere crowns
fitted to the head. The hats are the
more aggressive in appearance. The
majority are so unlike what one
girl to wear that it is surprising
for such use. The crowns are enor-
mously high and are still more exagger-
ated by the arrangement of the trim
ming. The whole effect is bold and
very pronounced, and for such costumes
as will not tolerate styles of this de-
scription the milliners are using all
their ingenuity to tone down and mod
ify by simple arrangement of quiet
materials and softly blended tints and
colors. The general impression Of the
bonnets for spring and between"
wear is not very different from that
of the autumn. Indeed, the styles
might very we'll be interchange
able. The same netted gold and
embroidered crowns; the same gold
wheat and balls of pins and other Or
naments; the same gold lace, and the
same dark shades of colors. There is
an entire absence, as whole, of the
freshness that one welcomes and Graves
in the spring, and it is only a critical
examination in detail that reveals here
and there quaint little bonnet of pale
ecru straw or transparent lace, the
former trimmed with the new, wide rib
bons in soft colors and medieval designs
set up on the top of the crown in loops.
after the Alsatian fashion, the folds
pinned down with small gold pins with
tiny hammered heads or scorn tops in
miniature. The interior of the brim is
faced with scant putting of soft plain
silk, the tint of the ribbon ground, but
there is no other trimming except the
strings, which may be of velvet, and tie
at the side.

NOTES FOR THE FARM And HOME.
Shorter Things,

DIR. Henry Stewart characterizes the
enormous cruelty of the Western sys-
tenn of stock holding, without shelter or
food as "a horrible and gigantic re-
proach to humanity"
Take the weak sheep, pig or other
animal, that is sighted by not getting
its full share of food, away from the
herd. and give it a fair chance by it
self.
Mention is made in The Medical and
Surgical Reporter of man who has
chad no bad colds since he learned to
sleep with open windows"
The Iowa Homestead hopes the day is
near when farmers will cease shipping
bushel of grain out of the State.
Mr.. John Eastman, Milford, Mich.
has contracted to raise seventy acres of
cucumbers for the Highland Pickle
Factory, at 424 cents per bushel, de-
livered.
1t is estimated that forty thousand
sheep have died IN Greene county, Pa. !,
in the last three months. The scarcity
of feed and the unusual severity of the
winter and spring weather have COM
bined to bring about this result. Far
mers say that the wool industry has re-
ceived backset that it will take years
to recover, and they are very despon-
dent concerning the future.
It is not advisable to give horses or
cattle food in such way that they will
have it always before them. They will
then foul what they do not eat, and,
eating when they are not hungry. keep
the stomach overloaded, and so suffer
from indigestion. The food is thus
doubly wasted. A good ration for a
working horse is three pounds of cut
hay and four pounds of ground oats and
corn given three times a day, with a
little long hay in the evening. They
will do well on oat or rye straw cut in
stead of the cut hay.
Pigs require little salt, as all other
animals do, but not so much as the
wholly vegetable feeding animals.
When pigs run in fields or wood lots
they gather many grubs and other in
sects and swallow some earth, all of
which contain saline matter; but when
they are confined in pens they need
some salt given regularly, and it is for
the neglect of this needed salt that they
are induced to swallow filth which
otherwise they would reject, so that a
supply of salt is not only heathful in
itself, but it avoids a source Of unhealth-
fulness.

Advantages of Weeping.

A French physician gives long dis
sertation on the advantages of groan.
ing and crying in general, especially
during surgical operations. He con-
tends that groaning and crying are two
grand operations by which nature allays
anguish; that those patients who give
way to their natural feelings more speed
lily recover from accidents and opera.
tions than those who suppose it un-
worthy in man to betray such symp-
toms of cowardice as either to groan OF
cry. He tells of man who reduced
his pulse from 1875 to 60 in the course oi
a few hours by giving full vent to his
emotions. If people are at all unhappy
about anything, let them go into theil
rooms and comfort themselves with a
loud boo hoo, and they will feel 100 per
cent better afterward. In accordance
with the above, the crying of children
should not be too greatly discouraged.
What is natural is nearly always useful,
and nothing can be more natural than
the crying of children when anything
occurs to give them either physical OF
mental pain.

and there is scarcely roof which will
not intercept enough to quench the
thirst of the dwellers beneath it. These
points he illustrates from suggestive
personal experience:
"I built two cisterns, side by side.
One, six feet in diameter.and twelve
feet deep, received the ordinary flow
from the roof, and furnished washing
water. The other, eight feet in dame
ter, and sixteen feet deep, was design
ed to hold water for drinking and cui-
mary use. It was rugged with a chain
pump. The spout from the roof was
arranged so that the flow could be turn
ed, at will into either cistern.
"When the cold November rain came
ard the windows of Heaven were fairly
opened, after the atmosphere was wash
ed clean, and the roof also, the spout
was turned into the large cistern, and it
was filed with pure cold rainwater
This was supply for two years.
"Never was the water more pure, linn
pid and tasteless. 1t was cold enough
even in summer, and from strangers
who drank of it often heard the re-
mark, What nice well you have !!
When told that it was rain water they
were incredulous until they saw where
it came from, and then wanted to know
how managed to have such delicious
rainwater.'
"The how was in having deep els
tern, in never permitting water to flow
into it except under the conditions above
named, and in havinga chain pump,
which, where it may utilized, is far the
best means of drawing water. The chain
pump is constant, and thorough aera-
tor. Its action keeps the fluid through
which it passes lively and sweet
where it is impracticable to exca-
vate cistern tank above ground may
be substituted. I have one of cedar
holding 1,500 gallons. Its interior is
vanished with shellac Gnsoluble in wa
ter, which prevents contamination OF
taste of tho wood. There is but one OBJ
lection to this tank, the water becomes
warm in summer.
"Even room within the house may
not be devoted to accommodation of a
more profitable tenant than big tank
to hold the family supply of rainwater.
From any roof it may be collected salts
factorily by observing the proper pre-
cautions. These demand attention and
trouble, not so much, however, as the

gist.
"The best safeguard against impurity
however, will be exclusion from the
cistern of all but the late autumn and
winter rains, and to defer admission OF
these until after rain has fallen steadily
at least an hour. In cities even longer
than this may be requisite to wash
thoroughly from the atmosphere all the
impurities suspended.
"It has been remarked that those
using pure rain water are generally ex-
empt from epidemic cholera. There is
scarcely a doubt that this pestilence is
about to visit us again, and it is proba-
BILE that our liability to its attack will
be essentially modified by the water we
drink"

SONG OF THE PRINCESS MAY.

Nora Perry in Outing for May.
March and April, go your way!
You have had your fitful day;
Wind and shower, and snow and sleet
Make wet walking far my feet
For come unsandaled down
From the hillsides bare and brown;
But wherever I do tread
There leave little thread
OF bright emerald, softly set
Like jewel in the wet;
And I make the peach buds turn
Pink and white, until they burn
Rosy red withen their cells;
Then / set the bloomy bells
Of this fowery alder ringing,
And the apple blossoms swinging
In shower of rosy snow,
AS come and as l go
On my gay and jocund way,
], the merry Princess May.
