Advantages to be Derived from Giving
Warm Water to Animals. &

Advantages to be Derived from Giving
Warm Water to Animals. (
There can be no doubt by any farmer
who will make fail. trial during acold
"speu," +" that water slightly warm is
best for every kind of stock. No ami
NAL can drink ice-cold water without
injury, nor often without real pain, il
the animal drinks as much as the sys-
tenn Graves. It reduces the tempera-
ture of the body, already too low, in
jures digestion and frequently causes
pain in the teeth and throat.
The case is worse still when, instead
OF watering the stock at it's shelter or
pen, it has to be driven to brook and
ice broken to make place for the ami
mails to get at the water. Thus they
are exposed to the danger of slipping
upon the ice, and to the cold winds,
and get pretty thoroughly chilled by
the time they reach their quarters
again. This increases the amount of
feed necessary to keep an animal, and,
if it be milch cows, reduces the quantity
of milk that they will yield
All this is readily obviated by supply
ing stock twice daily in cold weather
with water slightly warm. The appi-
ances for heating it, are always at hand,
or may be at little cost. And to make it
better still, add salt enough to give it a
slight saline taste, which will make it
more relished and better for the stock.
Also for milch cows, ewes. etc., put in
meal or bran enough to make a thin
Cruel. You will find every animal will
soon become fond of this and come to
look for it as part of their meals.
A milch cow having water thus
treated, given her regularly, will in
crease her flow of milk very percept-
IDLY and keep it up, other things equal,
as long as the warm salt Cruel is fed to
her.
Horses especially are often averse to
swallowing quantity of ice-coldwater.
At the same time they may want it very
much, and would drink large pailful
If little warm. The Cruel is excellent
for the horse, as well as other animals.

elephants are also in great demand
in Ceylon for service in the Buddhist
temples. Every temple has at least
half dozen attached to it, and in some
of the larger temples, such as the one
in Randy, where the sacred tooth of
Buddha is deposited, they have as many
as fifty. The largest number of ele-

the Prince of Wales visited Handy to

sKILLFUL CULTIVATION.
Why 1t Can Not Fail to Prove Satisfactory
and Remuneratiye.

and Remunerative.
Skillful cultivation should be the aim
OF every one who raises plants and
crops. To make gardening and farming
profitable, it is necessary to have some
thing in return for every stroke that is
made and every dollar that is invested.
Even when only a few house plants are
cared for we expect to see growth and
bloom in repay for our care; if not, our
interest in them would soon be lost.
We devote an acre of land to certain
crop; it costs for the season the interest
for a year on the investment made for
it, besides the expense of preparation,
manuring, cultivating, harvesting,
marketing, etc. Our crop is but half
what it might be, or what good culti-
vation has proved might be obtained.
The time and expense of preparation,
Of sowing and of cultivation, have
been as much as for a full crop, and
the cost of harvesting and other ex-
penses but little less; but part of the
land was too wetand the planting could
not be done early, as it should have
been, and on the same account the ma
nure that was applied, though there
was not half enough of that, could only
produce partial effects, and SO, from
these combined causes, we get back for
our seasons work, perhaps, the ex-
penses and a little more. The interest
and expenses were fifty dollars on the
acre, and our returns, all told,
amounted to sixty dollars, giving a
profit of ten dollars. At this rate per
acre on the whole place, with what it
provides for the table besides, with
great economy, one may, perhaps, live
along for while, and the land is grow
ing poorer, and the value of the first
investment is lowered-the place is
running down. But at a little more
expense in preparation, perhaps ten
dollars on the acre, enough to insure
the best result, making the whole sixty
instead of fifty as before. and the crop
is twice as great, and perhaps further
enhanced in value by its superior quail
ity. All Of this success, then, is profit
sixty dollars or more, instead of ten

How the Senators of Old Satisfied tbA
Desires of Their Wives.
Maximus Severus Tarquinius was a
Roman Senator representing the
Steenth District and resided with his
wife at a boarding house on the Appian
way. 1t had long been the wish of the
noble Roman and of his wife, that she
should wear seal-skin cloak to keep
out malaria, but so far the Legislative
stipend had been unequal to grs.tify the
Spartan simplicity of the Senator. One
cloudy, cold morning just after the
ides of December, he kissed his wife
goodbye at the front door of the cara
vansary and yanking his toga up to
shut out the insalubrious atmosphere,
he strobe down the steps.
''Will you be back to lunch, Tark,
dear?' lisped Mrs. Seyerus.
.'No Pulcherrima Candida, not to-
day. he replied. There is important
business before the Senate, and the
interests of the people demand every
hour of patriots time, every con-
sideration of his duty
.'It is enough, dear; be back to
dinner, though, for we are to 90 to the
Circus Maximus this eve to hear new
joke by the great clown Terence
Catullus.
THAT is, indeed, worthy of heroic
effort" he said. firmly, almost fiercely,
and for the second time gave his toga
hitch and put on his strobe.
1t was late when Tarquinius re-
turned, but his dinner had been kept
warm for him and his wife met him in
her boudoir in the L over the kitchen.
He had a large package in his arms but
she climbed over it and kissed him.

Chinese Visiting Cards

Eighteen hundred years ago the
Chinese made paper from fibrous mat
ter, reduced to pulp. Now each prov
ince makes its own peculiar variety.
The celebrated Chinese rice paper, that
so resembles wooden and silk fabrics,
and on which are painted quaint birds
and flowers, is manufactured from com.
pressed pith, which is cut spirally by a
keen knife into thin slices six inches
wide and twice as long. Funeral papers,
or paper limitations of earthly things
which they desire to bestow on departed
friends, are burned over their graves.
They use paper window frames, paper
sliding doors, and paper visiting cards
a yard long. 1t is related that when a
distinguished representative of the Brit
ism Government visited Pekin. several
servants brought him huge roll, which.
when spread out on the floor, proved
to be the visiting card of the Emperor.
