OPINION OF AN EXPERT.
Mrs. Mary b. WEIGH, Teacher of Domestic
Economy at State University of Iowa.

"My deliberate Judgment is that the oven
of the Range, as compared with others
is not only more equally heated in every
part-front as well as rear-but as q result
of its superior ventilation the food placed
therein is better cooked, while retaining
sweeter flavor, and a larger proportion of
its best juices. 1 have found, also, that the
consumption of fuel in this Range for given
amount of work, is much less than any other"

A French Gable Factory.

Up to the present time there does not
exist in France a single factory for the
construction of marine cables, and the
utmost that the manufacturers of cleo
tric-light conductors have been able to
do in this direction has been the produc-
ton of a few cables for crossing rivers.
1t is just announced that the Societe
Generate des Telephones is about to
carry out a scheme, elaborated some
time since by its engineers, for the cree
ton, in one of the chief ports, of an es-
Enlistment for the purpose.-M. z.

One Hundred Pounds Of 1t Equal to
Twenty Pounds of Corn.
The profit of raising pigs on a dairy
farm has eve been questioned, and
yet there are many persons who under
rate the value of buttermilk as a food
for pigs and hogs. Buttermilk con-
tains about 10 per cent. of dry matter,
and is composed of 8 per cent. of al
buminoids (easeine), 5.4 of carbo-hy-
drates (milk sugar., 1 of fat-nutri-
tive ratio, 1:2.6. The proportion of
muscle-forming matter is greater than
thai n whole milk. and this deficiency
of Oil lenders buttermilk slightly con-
stipating. To feed it in the most skill
full amp would require that a some
what laxative food, such as faxseed, be
added to it. Three-quarters Of a pound
of boiled haxseed to the 100 pounds OF
buttermilk will supply oil in the same
proportion as it exists in the natural
milk, and will greatly improve its feed
ing value, making it very nearly as nu-
tritious as new milk. If faxseed is not
to be conveniently had, the old style
linseed-oil meal may be substituted.
using / pound of meal to the 100 pounds
of buttermilk. The object is to pre-
vent constipation. In a general way,
it may be said that 100 pounds of but

as 20 pounds of corn, and is better

And very, very seldom take q dram;
But wear o patent smile
That's innocent of guile,

You must sport a costly suit,
Adiamond pin to boot,
And move within the best society;
And IL In church you might
Become a shining hght,

Be always on the lay,
And keep on in this way,
For people will not think that you're q sham;
And never, night and day,
Forget to watch and prey,
For that's the kind of a cashier that I ami

So when the Trustees come,
You can figure up q sum

And never let your hold

Then wildly speculate,
And rehypothecate.
For that's the kind OF a cashier that I anil

And for their suffering never dare q clam;
But BID your friends tata,

Book and q Ledger.
The day-book and ledger are the
business mans guide to success. It is
by these he knows day by day and year
by year his exact balance of profit or
loss, and by these he SO arranges his
business as to keep out of lines that do
pay profit, or at least that is his inten-
ton and desire. How many farm
ers keep even the simplest regular
booksp Not one in a hundred, probab-
ly. Why nota Does not the farmer
want to know just what his farm pays,
and what crops pays best year by yearp
Is there a farmer who a not keep in
parallel columns what is received for
produce and what is paid and howp If
not, the sooner he educates his boys
and girls in this direction the better it
will be all round.
Now is your time to urn owe q new
leaf. Begin by taking an account
of the value of the farm, stock,
implements and produce on hand.
Give each a price of some kind
and let that price be as near as you a
judge what you would ask if you were
going to sell. This is your stock in
trade-your capital. Then, if you have
anything to buy, put it down in your
memorandum book and transfer it at
night, or at some regular time to your
permanent account book. You will
soon come to be ashamed, perhaps, Of
many items of foolish expenditure, and
here will begin a great saving. If you
have anything to sell, fix its real mar
ket value and sell it when the prlcs
suits. Get out of the habit of asking
the dealer What will you givep"
Keep yourself posted on market
values of the property you have to sell
and never carry a load to a market
when you must come under the thumb
of any one ruling man in trade or any
set of men who monopolize the making
of prices in a town. Go further, or else
organize in a neighborhood to cooper
ate and ship to a more distant and
better market, where there is direct
competition in buying and selling. 1t
is not a good plan in any business to let
somebody else set the price both ways.
It always operates in favor of the man
who sets the price. 1t is enough that
the owner sets the price on goods he
has to sell. When you make a sale the
cash is to be carried to the credit of the
| seller. If you seek to buy and the price
is beyond your views, wait, but when
you do buy let tho price go down IN
black and white to your debit. Then
at the end of any week, month or year
you may know just how you stand as
compared with any other week, month
or year. You may know what is the
gain in live stock. implements, build
ings, acreage o crops--what are the
depreciation. wear and tear, and at the
end of the year what the profit or loss
Thus you may change your line OF
crops from non-paying to paying ones.
You may find certain classes of stock pay
better than others. If so, increase
those that pay and lessen those that do
not. Yes, this is a good time to i'm
prove your system Of doing business.
