to use every sanitary precantion posi-.

FARM

A FEW WORDS ABOUT TURKEYS
In the hands of careful persons, breed
ing turkeys is very profitable, but IL IS
absolutely essential to success that tney
have plenty of range; unlike other
poultry, turkeys require perfect nDerty'
and cannot brook confinement. On
grass and grain farms raising turkeys
cannot help being profitable, for they
have plenty of ground to stroll over,
and there is but little they can lDlure
while they helpmaterially in keeping
down insects. On a fruit farm, where
grapes, Strawberries ETC., are grown,
turkeys, ducks, geese and chickens are
all destructive to fruit, unless kept
within prescribed limits, Many a far

that most of their pocket money de

sagacity.

Instances of the sagacity of dogs are
quite lnnumerable. a Massachusetts
paper adds one TO the list, exhibiting
TINS intelligent animal in a new capacity,
that OF a newspaper carrier. Passengers
on the afternoon ''scoot" train from
springfield may daily witness in West
held an instance of canine intelligence
worthy to go on record.
Soon after the train passes the trap
rock quarry or the outside of the track
used by the eastward bound trains, a
dog can be seen racing along with the
cars until a paper is thrown off by the
Daggage-master. The dog instantly
siezes it, and, after giving a bark of &C
knowledgement, trots down the embank-
ment to the house of his owner not far
away. The sagacious animal is APP
parently of Newfoundland and st. BeT-
nard breed, and for three or four years
ID acted as n~ews-carrier in the way de-
scrlbed. Every day except Sunday,
summer and winter, he goes to his post
on the track at about the time the train
Is due, and there awaits the throwing
OF the paper. 1t is said that he not only
knows the hour when the train should
come along, but that on m day in sew
en- there is no need for his services. APP
parently the dog has learned to know
the whistle of his train from any other,
for if in the road or yard when the
whistle is sounded, half a mile down
the track, he rushes for his station.

10 has recently been demonstrated
that in a perfectly moist air no forma-
ton of fog is possible, however much
the temperature is lowered, so long as
the air is absolutely free from dust, and
that the more air, sufficiently moist,
is charged with such foreign particles,
the more intense is the formation of fog.
If filtered and completely moist air in a
glass ball have It's pressure diminished,
only a few particles of fog will reveal
themselves to the most careful inspec-
ton. But if a few cubic milIlmetres
of ordinary house air be now admitted
into this filtered air, a very fine, silveryd
transparent fog at once forms itself, OF
such slight density that ven in the
case of a considerable area of it the
transparency Of the atmosphere would
be but very slightly affected. AT the
first moment of its formation, if a re-

HEAVY YoUNGsTER AT DINNER.
Attempts TO Draw Him Into a Con
versation--A Stroke of Genius.

Last winter 1 sat opposite nj OF
those heavy youngsters at a dinner OF
sixteen plates. He took rather a viva
cious young married woman In and sat
beside her, with his smooth and COM
placent face held in the air, his eyes
half closed and the corners Of his mouth
drawn down. There was an expression
of severe reticence and overwhelming
reserve about him. He was about %
years old.
81 see you very often at the opera
and occasionally at dances, Mr.. Burke
Jones'" she began, "but you always
come late. and drift of before n has
a chance to nod to you"
"They bore me-"
A pause. Then she continues:
81 suppose you see so much of life
that the more modest and unspiced en-
tertainments which we women consider
so exciting are dull to you"
"Yes.n
Another pause. He glances with
cold esteem at the soup and permits
himself to taste the sherry. The oysters
pass him in silence while a man across
the table talks to the v%ivacious young
married woman. She is exceedingly
pretty, and her black eyes snap with
the gossip, chatter and lights. She
turns twice and looks at the solemn
face beside her. Then. evidently think
ing she has been stupid, she says, with
a bright smile:
"Of course you're going down to
Jerome on the opening day"
Never do the race"
"Ahl ] suppose you go in more for
college sports; most men in your club
do, Pm told"
There was such a long wait after this
that my nelghbors-a sister OF the
black-eyed talker-suggested that |
should rescue the earnest little worker
across the way. The solemn young
evidently did not consider her last re-
mark worth "a commenf. She waited
and then made another dash. He
wouldn't talk about the opera music,
the clubs, races. colleges or athletics,
81 she tried him on the theatre. No
results. Then she asked him what
steamer he had last crossed in, and he
said it was the Alaska.
"Ah, she's a beauty" said the de-
termined conversational. Then she
went off into a monologue and told a
charming little story about a love
match which occurred on board that
steamer-at least she said 1t was that
one-when she crossed in September.
Still the pompous nlnny at her side said
nothing. But she would not give him
up without Il more struggle. With
what I've always claimed since was a
stroke of genius, she got him of On the
topic of London tailors, and he spoke
at least twenty words before coming to
a halt. Then the hard working little
lady glanced over at us with triumph
beaming from her eyes. and we felt
like applaudlng her efforts. But the
dinner was over by this time and she
did not try her skill with the reticent
youth again.

How They Drink Beer in Spain.

They drink beer in a curious manner
in Spain. A correspondent relates how
his guide, a Frenchman, by name OF
Laboisse, proposed to visit a brewery,
operated by a firm with a German
name. 1t was notable for its coo &C.
cemmodations. The weather was very
warm, and a cool spot as well as a cool
fatherland's draught was not to be de-
spised. AS they entered they were
confronted by some Andalusisn peas
ants in their picturesque costume.
They had evidently come in to the cell
ebration of some patron saints festi-
val, and wished to crafty their curl
Osity with regard to the new strange
drink styled ''~cerveza." Two bottles
insecurity corked were brought. a large
and a small one, also a soup dish, iAto
which Laboisse poured the contents OF
the larger, which had o beer-like coior'
The contents of the smaller bottle FOL
], the nuid being OF pale lemonade
Laboisse stirred up the mixture
lore him with as much sol!citude as
though connecting a pineapple punch.
This was the custom OF the country;
The beverage, which savored more OF
fat lemonade than of beer, was zen
drunk out If small glasses.

WHAT KILLS FRUIT TREES. Deep
planting is one error-to plant a tree
rather shallower than it formerly stood
s really the right way, whilst many
plant a tree as they would a post.
Roots are of two k~inds-the young and
,ender rootlets, composed entirely OF
cells, the feeders of the trees, always
found neal the surface getting air and
moisture; and roots of over one year old
which serve only as supporters of the
Tree and conductors of its food. Hence
;he injury that ensues when the deli
late rootlets are so deeply buried in the
earth. Placing fresh or green manure
in contact with the young roots is an
other great error. The place to put
manure Is on the surface, where the
elements disintegrate, dissolve and a r
~ it downward. Numerous forms Of
fungi are generated and reproduced by
he application of such manures direct
y to the roots, and they Immediately
attack the tree. 1t Is very well to en-
rich the soil at TRANSFORMING the tree,
but the manure, if it be IN contact with
>r very near the roots, should be thor.
oughly decomposed.

A HOSTESS who cannot preserve her
serenity upon even the most critical
occasions. is lacking in one Of the
most essential qualities of an enter
tainer. The thoughtless spllling Of her
best wine, the soiIing of her whitest
~tablecloth, nay, even the smashing of a
whole trayful OF her best Old family
china. should not cause one muscle of
her countenanee to change.
On the other hand an affected ignor-
ance respecting the contents of the
davis bill of fare is at times almost as
fatal as the opposite extreme. 1 was
myself present at a dinner party at
which one of the untutored stable
helpers had been brought in on an en-
ergency to assist. What are these,
