Consolation In The Hour Ot Death,

From the San Francisco Chronicle
DR.. Swan relates a very sad case
of the ruling passion strong in
death. | always believe a doctors
story, except in a case OF cure. II
the patient dies, you never hear
anything but the truth. IT he lives
the doctor has to find some explana'
ton of the phenomenon. Doctors,
of course, see a vast variety Of
human nature, and especially its
weak sides. This is a touching
story of a young and fair gial, leav'
ing the bright world while the dew
of life was still lying on its morn
ing glories. You can imagine the
sadness of the scene. The growing
certainty of the end-the passing
beauty of the world-the bright
vision of all the happiness and the
loy-the heavy shadow hanging
over all.
"Itis hopeless" said the gentle
doctor "you cannot live"
"And must / die 7" she asked.
"YOu cannot live.D
"Tell me, doctor, one thing be-
fore | CO."
"What is it 2"
"Does the hair change color after
death 2"
"NO.'
"Then die happy. I'll look as
we'll as those Smith girls on the

How Noodles" Are Made.

Take four eggs, four tablespoon
fuls of milk, and as much flour as
the milk and eggs Will take up.
Make a hole in the centre of the
fouI, pour in the eggs and milk
and stir until there is a soft dough,
lay this on a board and work
enough flour into it to make it firm
and smooth. The longer it is
worked the better will be the moo
dies. Cut the dough into four
pieces, roll each piece as thin as
paper until you can almost see
through it, and lay it on a clean
cloth TO dry, but not too long or
| it will crumble in cutting. When
YOU have finished rolling out the
fourth piece, the first will be bout
ready to cut. Lay this piece on
the board, dust little flour over
| it and cut it across each way. Lay
these pieces one on top of the other
roll them together loosely, and pro-
coed to cut them as narrow as you
desire them. For soup they are
best cut as fine as possible. They
can be either used at once or kept
for several days. AS a second
course with veal stew, veal outlets,
or beef la MODE, in place of maca-
roni, they are excellent, but then
| they must be cut about half an
/ inch in width. They can be serv-
ed with cheese like macaroni, OF
with cracker crumbs roasted brown
/ in butter. They are also nice
eaten with stewed prunes. This
way they are very much liked by
children.-EmiliG Custer, IN GOOD

How 10 Be Rid Of Reaches.
Confeotioner's Journal.

COnfectiOner journal.
l beg 70 forward you an easy,
clean and certain method of eradi-
eating those lOathsome insects from
dwelling houses. a few years ago
my house was infested with cock
reaches Cor "clOcks," as they are
called here, and was recommended
to try cucumber Feelings as a
remedy. accordingly, immediate
" before bedtime, strewed the
floor of those parts OF the house
most infested with the vermin with
the green peel, cut, not very thin,
from the cucumber, and sat up
half an hour later and watched the
effect. Before the expiration Of
that time the floor where the peel
lay was completely covered with
cockrOaches so much so that the
vegetable could not be seen, so
voraciously were they engaged IN
sucking the poisonous moisture
from it. / adopted the same plan
the following night, but my visi-
tors we're not nearly so numerous
Il should think not more than a
fourth of the previous night. On the
third night l did not discover one !;
but, anxious to ascertain whether
the house was quite clear of them,
| examined the peel after | had
laid it down about halt an hour,
and perceived that it was covered
with myriads of minute cockroaches
about the size of a flea. there
fore allowed the peel to remain till
morning, and from that moment |
have not seen a cOckrOach in the
house. 1t is a very old building,
and l can assure you that the above
remedy only requires to be per
severed in for three or four nights
to completely eradicate the pest.
Of course it should be fresh cucum-
Der peel every night.

are they injurious to the eyes of
colts
Trenton, IOlcd. j. W. X.
Reply-The sO.called wOlf.tOoth

tooth, situated Immediately in
front of the grinders or molar
teeth and in line with these. Ordi-
narily this supernumerary tooth is
shed simultaneously with the milk.
teeth, but sometimes it is retained
longer. Accidental or cOnstitu-
ti0nal diseases of the eyes are not
unfrequently by horsemen attribut-
ed to the presence Of VOLTS teeth.
This is an error. The only incOnve-
nience caused by these teeth &C.
ours when they happen to diverge
from their usual straight position
then the point Of this tooth, if
sharp, may cause soreness of the
cheek or tongue. Eventually the
VOLTS teeth, would by natural ac-
ton, become quite absorbed
Should, however, any inconveni-
ence result from their presence
they should be removed. This can
easily be done with a pair Of small
iorceps. The usual method of
punching them out with a chisel
and hammer not only causes I'M
necessary pain to the animal, but
the gums and neighboring teeth
are very likely to be injured

The Farm In july.

Our hot sun and dry weather III
pen grain and grass-Or at least
bring it forward so that it is ready
for the scytbe and the sickle, much
earlier in the season than in the
climate of Europe. July is really
the fist, and perhaps the most i'm
portant harvest month. The great
grass crop, with which "the early
and latter rains" has blessed mill
lions of acres, is to be cut, cured
and harvested. Winter grain, over
a great part of the country, is to be
cut this month, while, at the same
time, when from any cause, short
crops are anticipated or are to be
provided against, it is even now
not too late to get in crop Of mil
let or of fodder corn.
July is seed time for plants OF the
turnip kind. There are, indeed,
cold, heavy soils, where Swedes need
to be sOwn in June to make a crop,
but generally the former half of
this month is early enough, while
for those known as English turnips,
if sOwn the latter half, and up to
the tenth of August, they will give
good returns.
There are weedy fields that really
need to be thoroughly summer-fal-
lowed before anything is done with
them. In these the plOw must be
kept going, and in light lands the
weeds are destroyed at a sacrifice
of nearly all the organic matter,
which must be kept replaced in
some way. Hence, it is almost al
ways better to fallOw with a root
crop, sowing in drills and giving
thorough culture. The fertilizer
containing no weed seed, the clean
ing of the land may be very com
plete, and the soil will be improved
in fertility.-AmericaR Agriculture

FEED WHILE MILKING.

1t is always best to give COWS a
mess of feed of some kind when
about to milk them. 1t draws their
attention, makes a wild COW more
gentle, and puts a timid one more
at her ease. 1t is the best method
we know OF to get a COW to stand
quietly, and hence facilitates milk.
ing, because the COW does not hold
back her milk, aud the work can
be done thoroughly and with ease
OF course the mixer must be
gentle and kind also. The COW
must be petted, not abused, and
the mess OF iced is the first thing
to attend to in order to put a COW
in the hnmor to be petted. And
after a COW is well broke to the
pail, and can be MIXED by almost
any one, the feed IS still desirable,
because it helps to quietness and
causes the COW to give her milk
freely and fully.
We would say, always feed when
milking, and ifa COW is MIXED three
times a day, or only twice, always
reserve the feed till the milking
hour. At least, have something
for them to eat then-somethlng
different, it may be, from tkeir reg
ular fare. 1t is a fact not gener-
ally known, perhaps, that turnips
and cabbage may be fed to a COW
at this time without at all affect
ing the milk. 1t does not have
time to faint the present milking,
and before the next time the pecu'
liar odor has passed away.
If, at times, as will be the case
at this season, flies, gnats, &c, are
troublesome at milking time, put
the COW into a dark stable'or room,
which will have some effect. And
when the COW is brushed, as she
should be daily, dip the brush oc
casionally in sturgeon oil, and rub
it over the animal. 1t will tend
to repel the insects. 1t is well tc
attend to even so small thing as
the best time to feed.-Inder-Ap.

How 10 Keep a CIstsrn Clean.

One way of preventing foul matter

dry weather the pipe is turned over

A CONGRESSMAN'S cow TRADE.

Representative ONeill, of Mis-
souri,, is a veritable son of the soil
Among his constituents he is d
granger himself. His district lies
in the upper part Of ST. Louis, oul
as it embraces the billy goat and
| garden.tr suburbs of the met
ropolis of the Mississippi, his con
stituency is somewhat rural. 1c
| this element O'Neill has long been
a walking encyclopedia Of inior
nation concerning crops and 1--we
stock. During the last campaign
while visiting, he met one of hls
farmer constituents, driving cow
He at once began to air his knowl-
edge of bovine breeds. In the
height of his enthusiasm he offered
to buy the COW. The farmer was
not anxious to sell, but said he
would take $50 for her.
"Drive her up to my house,
said O'Neill, "and III be there to
pay YOU the money"
The farmer regretted that he had
consented to part with his tavorlte
COW, and said "Let me tell you,
Mr.. O'Neill, the COW Is a gentle
creature and a good mixer, but
she has no upper teeth"
"Of course that changes the
trade" said Mr.. O'Neill. "Nou
wouldn't expect me to take a COW
with such defect as that, but
bring me a good mixer with sound
upper teeth, and I'll buy her"
When the story got out there
was great excitement in the cab
bage end of his district. The
grangers swore they would not
have a Congressman who was

that cows had upper teeth

GLEANlNGS.

Sheep should be provided with a
comfortable shelter at all times OF
the year. Less sickness and loss
would occur if they were regularly
folded every night. 1t would not
only be to their comfort and health
but bring them regularly under
the shepherds eye, who would
quickly note any signs of sickness,
or anything that is wrong. Sheep
habituated to being yarded in the
fold every night would give com
paratiyely little trouble. They
would like it, and as they are crea-
lures of habit, would soon learn to
put in an appearance at the proper
time. Here, too, should be provid-
ed troughs for salt and racks for a
little dry feed. They would relish
these much, and they would do
them good. AS a rule, what does
them good, pays.
A frequent mistake in hay-mak
ing is to over-dry the hay. Not
only is the hay better when housed
or stacked as soon as possible after
cutting as it will keep, but the risk
of getting the crop damaged by
rains is avoided. The views of far
mers have changed very material
" in later years in regard to the
amount ofdrying necessary to in
sure the keeping of hay. Expert
ence has shown that much less
drying is necessary than was for
merly supposed to be required, es-
pecially if the hay is put into a
tight barn. If it sweats and heats
some that need not cause alarm,
for to limited extent, this is no
harm.
One should always be particular
in the construction ofhen rOosts, to
have them all the same height, and
not too great distance from the
floor. If roosts are placed one
higher than the preceding one,
the hens will all strive to reach the
highest, and leave the ones below
unoccupied. Roosts should not be
arranged higher than four feet from
the floor, and by having these able
to be reached by a fOOt-wide board
across which laths the width ofthe
board are nailed horizontally, the
large and clumsy hens are saved
many a tumble. from which arises
swelling called Stumble foot"

Rearing Calves 10 Advantage.

First, own good cows. Treat
them kindly and keep them dOcile
and quiet. When about to calve,
place the COW in a separate stall
and leave her loose. Feed no
grain OF stimulating food for a
month before calling. When the
calf arrives, remove it to a pen at a
distance where it can be kept quiet
and comfortable. 1t will never
know what it is to be with its moth.
er, and much trouble afterwards
will be spared. In three or four
hours milk the COW, and give the
milk TO the calf, teaching 1t to
drink. With patient skill the calf
may be taught to drink in the first
lesson. Milk the COW four times a
day, and feed the milk to the calf
until the fourth day, when the COW
is returned to the stable and the
milk is saved for skimming. The
calf gets only skinned milk after
this-three quarts at feed twice a
day, and warmed up to eighty de-
erees. The feed is gradually in
creased as the calf grows, and when
1t is two months old 1t is taught to
take a little mixed ground corn
and oats, and have a small quaint
ty with the warmed skinned milk
until it is six or eight months old.
This enables the calf TO make fine
growth, and brings it up in dOcili;y
and gentleness. These qualities
are improved by a daily brushing
and cardiDg, and by using it to the
halter and to lead, while it is being
fed in the pen. Continually hand
ling in this way prevents the con.
tracing of any of the common vices,
and when the calf becomes a COW,
it is in an excellent state of discl-
pline and gives no trouble. This
method, well carried out, is the
main step toward an improved
herd, which will be of very great
value, and one gained at a very
small cost.-American AgricWltur.
