Again, shortly after the late Inventions

which fully confirms me in the be-

was passing through the building 1
heard wild and riteous cries issuing
from spot close to where I stood. 1
Immediately proceeded thence. and be-
held six large Rats feasting upon three
OF their congeners not much smaller
than themselves, who were endeavor-
ing to free themselves from the sharp
teeth of their assailants. All of these
rodents appeared thin and wild, and
wera no doubt rendered bold and des-
perate by privation, for my presence
had no effect upon their carniverous at
tacks. l frequently hear rats scam
pering beneath the floor of my office,
accompanied by loud and protractcd
squeals; and, after what saw, am in
duced to believe that deadly raid is
on such occasions being made upon
one or more of tllem.'

FARM AND HOME.
Content With Simple store.

COntent With simple store.
Dear Lord, to Thee my knee is bent:
Give me content
Full-pleasured with what comes to me,
Whate'er it be;
An humble root, frugal board.
~, And simple hoard;
The wintry faggot piled inside
The chimney wide,
While enwreathing flames upsprout
And Irvine about
The blazen dogs that guard my hearth
And household worth;
Tinge with the embers ruddy glow
The rafters low;
And let the sparks snap with delight,
AS fingers might
That mark deft measures of some tune
That children Groom;
Then with good friends, the rarest few.
Thou holdest true,
Ranged round about the blaze, to share
My comfort there;
Give me to claim the service meet
That makes each seat
A place of honor, and each guest
Loved as the rest.

The Lamp Craze.

One must be a woman to appreciate
the loneliness of light that betrays no
secrets, uncovers no blemishes, and
kindly shadows the defects of toilet,
complexion, and time. Indeed, it is a

feminine gender that she is indeed bag

These beautiful mediums of illumin-
alton may be bronze, metal,
limoges, Dresden, cut crystal, china, or
simple pottery. glazed or painted. The
lamp body may be almost any shape,
size, or material that will hold oil, but
the trimmings must be and always are
novel, artistic, and serviccable. Shades

Apple Dessert.

A pretty dish for dessert is made by
peeling. coring, and boiling some tart
apples. using just enough water to
keep them from burning, Stir and beat
them until they are pulp. and to every
pound of this allow three quarters of a
pound of sugar in Jumps dip the

Crops For Selling,

The best crops for soiling are rye,
clover, or lucerne (also called alfalfa)
oats and peas sown together, and corn;
the succession will be in about the order
here named. Rye, sown the preceding
fall will surely will be ready to cut by
the latter part of May, and if corn be
sown early in the same month it will
follow on after oats and grass, and if
sown thereafter of fortnight or so,
there will be supply until frost.
Each subsequent sowing will require a
slight increase of seed. The quantity
of rye sown per acre should be about
two bushels, and the soil should be
rich. 1t is we'll to pillow land, on
which corn is to be sown. in the fall,
then harrow it about the middle of 4 pril
and prepare at once for sowing. If no
MANURE is ready for the corn and COM
mercial fertilizers are used, SOW about
500 pounds TO the acre, in the burrows.
Burrows should be marked ont two and
a half or three feet apart, or if the
double row system is followed, SOW
two rows about six inches apart and
then leave a space of two and Il half
feet or more, for cultivation, between
the double rows. In one respect, at
least, corn is more valuable than any
other crop for soiling, as it can be fed
in green state from midsummer un-
til frost comes.
Al !
peas is, that it is of quick growth and
can be worked in between other
crops and got out of the,
way, and it will leave the
land ready for turnips and fodder cora.
About three bushels of oats and two OF
peas to the acre. sown broadcast. are
proper. This crop, raised for fodder
purposes, is not often enough grown
by our farmers to have its real value
appreciated.

Onions.

A farmer in Kentucky asks me which
is the best soil for onions, horse-radish
and beans, and whether turnips can be
grown in the fall after the onions are
harvested. If the onions are cured and
removed from the land before the first
of August, a good crop of strap-leaved
tnrnips could be grown. The best and
richest land of the farm will be none
too good for onions and horse-radish.
For both crops prefer a good, sandy
loan. rather than low, mucky land.
But good crops can be grown on va
riety of soils. And so with beans.
They do we'll on land not too muckv
for corn or too heavy for whcat-a me-
dunn sandy loan being considered best
You need to keep the crop clcan-that
is the great point.

Unt h reShod Oats.


Unthreshed oats are better feed for
horses than the grain alone. or the grain
and straw both fed, but separately.
The albumiuoid ratio of the grain of
oats is 1.61; of the straw of oats, 1899.
The food for horses at ordinary work
should have an albuminoid ratio of L.
20; Hence, the grain of oats should be
mixed with food having lower albu-
minoid ratio. We might get ration
having the proper ratio-by using corn
with the oats. But it is well-known
that for grain to be we'll digested it
must be eaten with some sort of slower
to form the necessary bulk in the stom-
ach. For slower we might use timothy,
which has an albuminoid ratio of Isl,
and would give the necessary bulk.
But it is much better to have the grain
and the slower eaten together. We
may cut the hay, mix it and the grain
together, and m0sten the mixture; but
we accomplish the same thing more
economically by feeding unt6reshed
oats, for then the grain, all the chaff
and a good part of the straw are mas
ticated together. BY thus feeding oats
we not only improve the albuminoid ra-
ito of the ration and provide the nee
essary forage masticated with the
grain, but we save the expense of
threshing. Oats to be fed in this way
should be cut before they are quite ripe,
cured thoroughly. and then moved
away. They are just the feed for win
ter. when the horses require carbo-hy-
drates; and because of their manner of
feeding are so we'll digested, and are
so we'll suited to the wants of the horse
that be will do a great deal better up
on them than he would upon almost
any other food.
