Do not feed the horses corn exciu

In the region of remedies suggested
for lice on stock, a comparatively new
one is sour buttermilk, three or four

where you used it last.
IL anything ban be done to save ami
mails from the annoyance OF flies, be

greatly, and Indirectly it costs food to
keep up the annoyance.

Suggestions About Threshing.

That the best is the cheapest in the
long run is as true of threshing as all
other farm operations. Within few
years large numbers CT men without
experience have been attracted by the
apparent profits in threshing grain.
To earn SIS to $40 in a single days
work has seemed a big thing to men
accustomed to earning 81 so or 50 per
day. The result is that the threshing
business has been overdone. The sea-
son is a short one, and is growing
shorter every year through increasing
capacity Of threshing machines and
greater competition. Machines and
engines are expensive, and by the time
they are paid for most Of them are
half worn out. Worst of all, competI-
ton has reduced prices sometimes
lower than they can bereally afforded.
All this Is for the benefit OF the farmer,
who should take advantage of it, not
to save a tritle in money, but 10 en-
ploy at living rates threshers who will
do the best work, who understand
their business and will do it up quick
ly and in good order.
The increasing number Of accidents
involving loss OF life and destruction
The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1886-09-04

of property are very often theresult of
putting men in charge OF engines who
have had no experience and who are
incompetent to manage them. Aside
from these dangers q poor thresher
with worn. out machine will often waste
enough grain TO pay his bill. 1t is not
pleasant after doing all the work nee
essary In growing and harvesting
crop to have it thrown into the stack
by an incompetent thresher. Much of
the character of threshing also de-
ponds upon having plenty of help.
Any machine will do better work when
we'll supplied with straw. II the cylin-
der is not kept full the untiring steam
power gains so much momentum that
grain is thrown over or broken by the
swiftly revolving spikes.
Ii threshing is done early then grain
will require close attention to keep it
from spelling in the bin. There is
greater danger from this source than
formerly, as our improved harvesting
machinery enables farmers to get
crops in the barn in larger quantities
and more hurriedly than was possible
when cutting and binding the grain
often required week or more time be-
fore drawing the crop to the barn
could be attempted. Oats, if cut
rather green, as they should be, are
especially liable to damage, and for
this reason oat threshing should be
delayed as late in the season as posi-
ble
The granary and bins should be
looked to before threshing begins. All
old grain should be removed, the bins
cleaned of dirt and refuse and made
proof against rats or mice. Hemlock
boards are best, as these have sharp
splinters which interfere with rats or
mice in gnawing through them. But a
sheet iron lining inside this will make
everything more secure, and usually
repay its cost IN saving OF grain every
year. Vermin destroy much more
than they eat, besides the annoyance
from having their excrement mixed
with and thus soiling the grain

Animals Against Steam.

In an interesting paper published in
the Revue Scientitique Prof. Samson
compares the steam engine with the
living organism as an animated motor.
He concludes that the animated mo
tor Is more economical that the en-
CINE if it is asked, not which of the two
gives most work, but which gives the
kllogrammeter or unit OF work at least
cost price. But this conclusion APP
plies only to cases in which a great ex.
penditure of force is not required. For
instance, in cases where twenty horses
can do as well rs steam engine. it is
more economical to use the horses,
and it is all the more so that less en-
ergy is required; but if fifty horses can
do the work of Q steam engine it is
better-that is, more economical-to
have it done by steam.

Imports of Foreign Fruits.

From a recent report OF the consuls
OF the United States, may be cleaned
some interesting information in regard
to the amount Of foreign green fruits
imported into New York. The total
value of such imports brought to that
port alone during 1885 was 81, $780,
TT. II to this could be added the
amount brought to other ports the ag-
gregate would bequite considerably in
creased. OF lemons imported into
New York last year, the value was 81 :
81 ,233, while the number reached
291, $50, 700, or nearly six lemons for
each inhabitant of the country; this,
too, was q decrease of 80 per cent.
from the previous year. The lemons
were all BROUGHT from Mediterranean
ports. OF oranges the imports were
PA, 400, OS4, Is per cent. of which
were lost during the voyage. OF this
number 176, 500, 200 were from Medit-
erranean ports, and 1889, 844 were
from the various ports of the West In
dies, Central and South America. The
value Of these oranges is given at
1865, 561. The value of the bananas
imported into New York is given at
-, ocOstI-J a. 4Cti 80 uSCI66Se from
1884. OF pine-apples, which come
chiefly from the West Indies, there has
been a large increase OF importations,
during the past year the aggregate
numbering 1896, 332, valued at
S242, $40. Of cocoanuts the imports
were 13, $50, $50, 81 decrease of g, 63O,-
$40 from 1884. On lemons, lines, Or
anges and grapes there were collected
import duties, amounting to 1924
513.94. Bananas, pineapples, cocoa
nuts, ETC., not being grown in this
country, are admitted tree OF import
duties. To get at the amount of such
fruits consumed in this country, it
would also be necessary to add the
lemons, lines, oranges, etc, grown in
Florida and California which must
swell the amount several millions Of
dollars.

CHAPTER VIII.

They took me away from her-old Mrs.
Staples and Rosa Hudson, who were low
ingly attending her. They told me that she
must sleep; that DR.. Gray had said that her
life depended upon her ability to sleep long
and sOundly. So with q kiss upon her lips,
| permitted myself to be led away from the
sick chamber into the sitting ROOM
There, when | could sit down and calmly
converse, they told me the substance of
what Hugh Staples had put into his state
ment, far back in this narrative. 1t was
only on the return of DR.. Beaumont from
New York, three days before, and his posi-
tive statement that he had seen me there,
in confirmation of the story which had been
told of my felonious breaking into the Fair
view mansion, that Paula had yielded to
the terrible stress of excitement and men
tai agony that had for days oppressed her.
For forty eight hours she had lain lnsens-
ible, threatened with brain fever DR..
Gray had faithfully attended her; and it
was only during the past night that she had
awakened pale, weak, more dead than
alive-and family whispered my name
They had told her that | was coming; that
l would be with her tomorrow; told her SO
to comfort and relieve her, and help her
back to health. while their own hearts were
sick and sore with the cruel fears that We're
prompted by my absence. And the morrow
had come; and to their astonishment and
Joy, | had returned.
Presently old Hugh came III. He well
coined me as one returned from the grave;
and no wonder if my own heart went out
warmly to the faithful old man who had
suffered for his devotion to his murdered
master, and who hal shielded and shell
tered Paula in her troubles. Much there
was to say between us; but as quickly as
possible l put ali else aside. and entreated
4 him to tel me what was said in the village
about my absence. He told me the whole
/ Infamous story, without disguise. ! had
