The FunereaI Month of March.

An observant metropolitan barber says
that he can tell ones physical condition by
the state of the hair
The Bible tells US that with his hair gone
Samson lost his strength. The Romans
considered badness serious at1iction and
julius Caesar was never quite satisfied with
himself because his poll was bare.
The face, however, is the open book ana
one can readily trace in its various express
sions, lines, changes and complexion the
state of the system.
The eye that is unusually bright and yet
has pallid brightness, the lace upon
whose cheeks nature paints rose OF sim
gular beauty and flush more marked in con-
trast with the alabaster appearance OF tne
forehead and nose and lower part OF tne
face, is one of those whom the skilled ply
sician will tell you will some day dread
the funereal month of March, because II
is then that consumption reaps its richest
harvest. Consumption they tell US is caused
by this, that and the other thing, by NIL
crobes in the air, by micro-organlSms IN
the blood, by deficient nutrition, by thou
sand and one things, but whatever the cause,
decay begins with cough and the remedy
that will effectually stop the cause OF that
cough cures the disease of the lungs.
That is all there is Of it.
The cough is an evidence of q wasting.
To stop it effectually, remedy must be
used that will search out the cause, re-
move that and then heal the lung and dc
away with the cough. This is the power,
special to itself, possessed alone by War
ner's Log Cabin Cough and Consumption
remedy. This is no neW-fangled notion OF
narcotics and poisOns, but an old-taSn,
ioned preparation of balsams, roots and
herbs, such as was used by our ancestors
many years ago, the formula OF which mas

.MIrhtY Rouph on Rats.

Some inventive genius about two months
ago set afoat yarn to the effect that the
White House was infested with rats.
There are to-day letters coming to the
President founded on that basis. All Of
them came from Frenchmen, curiously
enough, and all of them propose some
means of getting rid of the pest. One
was, oddly, from a cheese-manufacturer
in the Province of Eure, and, unlike all
the rest of the rat doctors, he did not ask
for any reward for his recipe. He advised
catching one of the rodents alive, cutting
a slit in the skin of his back, putting a
good dose of salt and pepper underneath,
and letting the animal 90 again. The
Frenchman veraciously predicts that the
rat will run through the house uttering
piercing cries, and that these cries of
warning will warn his companion rats to
escape,

The Kitchen Garden.

The kitchen garden may as well

Bordercd by rows of fruit trees and
bushes, lovely in bud, flower and

Planting in long divisions, twenty
five feet wide, with Indian corn down

In sections devoted TO blackberry

Every pouItry-yard should have q
peach tree planted therein, as the
peach thrives we'll in poultry-yards
and is protected from the borer by the
hen.
A small allowance of green food
is highly relshcd by stock of all kinds
at this season. but where green food is
scarce q few sliced roots will serve as
u substitute. They act as an appe-
tizer, and thereby promote health.
In mating fowls to procure eggs

and plymouth rorks and fourteen
hens AM u male of iho small brceds,
such as lcghorns and hamDnrgs.
In selecting cantalopes do not
aim TO secure large ones for family
use. The best favored and sweetest
varieties are the small kinds, and they
are also the earliest. Watermelons,
however, should be large, as the larger
the melon the less waste, while they
are also fully equal in quality to the
smaller kinds
1t is not safe to suddenly change
the food of COWS from the dry hay and
grain to an exclusive green diet If
rye shall como in for pasturing allow
the COWS but few minutes upon it the

every day thereafter until they shall
become accustomed to the green food.
In this manner may be avoided bowel
diseases and falling off of milk.
Any community of farmers can,
by co-operotion in the purchase of a

.idential provision, so well adapted Is
'4t to dair ying, an industry that liberal =
ly produces the manure needed by the
land. Dairying will largely furnish
the fertilizer needed for the cotton
and the cotton will largely furnish the
food for the dairy cattle. And for
the purpose, each is admirably
adapted.
Cotton seed is fed to cows not so
much because of merit for this use,
but because it is at hand in abun-
dance. The agricultural chemists who
have made study of feeding, at whose
head stands Prof Stewart Of New
York, tells us that ration for
milk animals should have an albumin
ratio of from 1:5 to 1:6 Most of the
common stock foods of the North lack
albuminoids. Thus the albaminOid
ratio of corn (grain) is 1:S TO LILO; OF
rye, II; of wheat straw, 1:46; of oats
straw, 1:29; of rye straw 1:46; of
average meadow hay 1:S; average
red clover, 1:6; CT timothy, 1:S. 1t
will be seen that the commoner stock
foods of the North must be compile
mented, in economical feeding, by
foods having an annually large per-
centage of albuminOids. and the
Northern feeder uses linSeed or cotton
seed meal
Cotton seed has an albumnoid ratio
of 1:4.6 Hence, if any thing. it
has IN excess of albuminoids.
But likely the cattle of the South
require less of the heat for ners
than the cattle Of the North;
or, in other words, n higher albumin
old ratio, say of at least 10 As the
other foods at hand are usually some
what deficient in the albuminoids. the
slight excess of the albumino,dS in the
cotton seed is rather cOmmendablc
than otherwise. Cotton-seed cake,
decorticated, has an albuminoid ratio
of Ills; undecorticated, IL sand
are admirable foods to be used in
comparatively small quantities with
other foods lacking albumnods. For
liberal feeding, cotton seed is much
better; in fac, albuminoid ratio alone
considered is cqualed by only red
clover pasture, or red clover hay cut

of bloom. John NJ SIahh IN Souther"
