FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

Potatoes intended for seed should
be kept during the winter cool and airy.
and if growths should appear they
ought to be promptly removed.
1t is said that one thousand sheep
run on piece of ground one year will
make the soil capable of yielding grain
enough over and above the capacity of
the soil without the sheep manure to
support one thousand and thirty-fve
sheep an entire year.
To make salmon croquettes boil
half pint of milk, thicken it with
tablespoonful of flour and let it become
cold. Mince pound can of salmon or
one pound of fresh salmon. When
very fine add saltspoonful of white
pepper. Moisten the minced salmon
with the boiled milk. work to n paste
and add bread crumbs if too thin.
When wanted. shape into cakes. rolls
or cones, dip in egg and crumbs and
fry in hot fat
The seed of sorghum sugar cane is
rs nutritious as corn, and may be
ground or crushed and fed to any kind
of stock. When ground with bran it
makes the best of feed for cows and
horses 1t may be fed to swine after
soaking it in water. The yield of seed
is about twenty-five bushels per acre.
When the cane is grown for sugar the
seed is permitted to ripen. and pays all
the cost of growing the crop.-FGTner
and Manufacturer.
Always put corn beef. when it
comes from the table, back into the
liquor it was boiled in. This r good
rule for ham and tongue also. They
absorb much of the rich fluids that have
been dissolved into the water. After
the meat has been served cold the sec
ond day, you can make corn beef hash
of the remnants for breakfast dish,
and boil up the liquor into good bean
soup. Do this on the afternoon of the
second day, and it can be heated again
on the third day.
The basis of stock-breeding and
the dairy should be permanent pastures
and meadows. How to obtain these
and retain them is the question. In
some places, OF alluvial lands, or bot
tom lands, the answer is easy-by let
tering them alone. and occasionally
sowing a little seed in the thinn ed-out
places, or scattering a little horse man
ure over such spots. In such soils it is
natural for the grass to be retained.
and it may last for a life time or n CEN
fury. On uplands it is more difficult
to keep land in grass without its kill
ing out in the winter. This inclina-
ton is nj 9re common with some kinds
of grasseI than it is with others.

ABOUT TYROTOxICAN.

How to Prevent the Formation OF This
Dangerous MIX Torment.
The poisonous minute fungus, that
sometimes develops in milk, and which
of late has resulted in extensive cases
of poisoning. should call for the ut
most cleanliness in all operations, from
milking all the way to the utensils
used. 1t is not enough that the uten-
sis be washed; they should be fully
scalded every time they are used.
Freezing has been shown not to DESTROY
the germs. Milk from healthy cows, if
kept in perfectly clean vessels, and not
exposed except to pure air, remains
healthy. If it becomes tainted it may
not be so, however careful the dairyman
may otherwise be. For family use the
practice is growing by which milk is
secured in sealed jars or cans, and is a
decided Improvement over the old way
Nevertheless these jars or cans may be-
come infected if neglected. so that as
an additional precaution housewives
should see that they are thoroughly
cleaned and scalded before being re-
turned to the milkman.
The factory man. no less than the
farmer, should have care in the use of
utensils, and in the care of the milk es-
pecially for the manufacture of cheese.
1t is his duty to impress upon his pa
irons the necessity of absolute cleanli-
ness. and to know that his directions
are needed If this is fully carried out
there is no danger from this dangerous
ferment. for this, like others of its class
is the result of disorganization and de-
cay.-Fdr7n, Field and StoekmGn..

GYPSY GEOGRAPHY.

A Nomadic Race Which Is Literally With.
out Country.
The Gypsies are a strange race, anon g
whatever people they live. They are liter.
ally without country. The earliest GER.
tain mention of them in Europe is in 1417,
when they appeared in Germany, and with
in twenty years of that time they were in
Italy, Switzerland, Spain and France.
Where they came from is a mystery, though
their language indicates an origin in the
north of India. They have no knowledge or
tradition among themselves Of their early
home; and the loose notions commonly held
by other people, on this question, are shown
by a conversation reported. Two women
were watching Gypsy girl, VIII was pass
ing down the other side Of the road, oppo-
site to where they were standing.
81 say" sai2 one of the women to the
other, 'why that's Gypsy; they're queer
sort o. folks ar'n't they! I wonder where
they came FRONT"
ssLor," said the other woman, t'don't you
know9 lean tell you; they came from Egypt
to be sure, and that's the reason why they
be called Gypsies."
Mr.. Vernon Norwood discourses on this
subject in his recent book on the Gypsies.
To show how crude are the notions of these
people upon their origin, he refers to q con-
versation he once had with Gypsy woman.
aAs YOU know" he said to her, "Gypsies
are not of our race, but altogether distinct
from us, both in life and habits. Do you, or
any of your folks know what country the
forefathers of the Gypsies were supposed to
be natives OF, or in which they lived before
they came to Englandl"
''Ohr' replied the woman, sit would take
me long time to explain that to you, SO you
must excuse me trying to do So"
Having assured her that he did not wish
her to enter into details respecting :he mat
ter, he asked: 'sDid your people come, in
the first place, from Egypt or from IndiaP'
From the vague and laconic answer he
received to his inquiry, it was evident that
this woman knew less of general geography,
and the relative positions the above coun-
tries sustain to each other, than she did Of
the topography of either Bow Common, or
of that of many of the lanes and coy noo1s
of this her native country; for after hesi-
tating, she replied:
.'Why, sGre, we believe we come from
both them countries, and that is all can tel
you"
An intelligent Gypsy-man, oeing asked q
similar question, returned the ungracious
answer: II don't know, sir, nor don't
care; knosc- IA here, end that's all that
concerns me."-Ho4M' ConIpGaiOH-

With that he cody took the lines from her

She answered simply:
al have been at your home'-
"Ah, then you are the lovely Mss earns
fordl"
Lydia blushed
Fairfax looked at the girl She certainly
must be q remarkable woman to have
undertaken such an errand as she declared
she had come upon Next to his own Prin-
cess she was, assuredly, the finest woman
he had ever seen.
She felt his scrutinizing gaze, and became
visibly embarrassed By no means was
her regard for this man yet gone.
''I ask of you one more favor,n he con-
tinued. II shall not see the Princess again
at least, to speak with her. VIII you tell
her-that if her suspicious are aroused as
to my confederates in the deed, request
her too keep them to herself. If justice
must be satisfied, myself viii appear alone
and suffer any penalty that may free the
others. But feel quite sure that she will
divulge not even the name of the steamer
that brought her here and takes her back to
France; and 1 think the Lady Lydia is still
friend enough to stand by me in keeping this
request herself"
''You may depend upon me,'' said Lydia,
holding out her ungloved hand, and placing
it in Fairfax's in sign of friendship.
Here Fairfax stopped the horse. They
were at the entrance to Eld-Field.
Handing the reins to Lydia, he said:
''If you want my assistance, send note
over to the cottage yonder, where my aunt
and 1 am staying. Meanwhile will order
Blanche, the Princess maid, to prepare all
things for departure, and will let her know
when the steamer is expected
With bow, Fairfax was gone, and Lydia
slowly drove in alone through the gates of
ED Field.
She believed now in her first intuition
this was the one man of her life.

know girl-a handsome girl
Isometimes think the handsomess
That it has been my fate TO meet;
She's quick and ready with JEST
She's stylish, ladylike and bright;
She's educated and she's witty;
My heart would be her own tonight
Were she as good as she Is pretty.
But have seen those scarlet lips
Disfigured by sneer OF scorning;
Those same sweet lips that smiled at mo
With so much witchery this morning,
I've seen them curve with proud dlsdain,
When, had they worn q smile OF pity,
would have loved her-Ol wish
She were as good she is pretty.
AS a companion for my life,
Tn sure would not seek another;
But have seen her toss her head
And speak unkindly 10 her mother.
Yet one more sweet to her young friends
You can not find in all the city;
And she would be my hearts delight
Were she as good as she is pretty.
She charmed me so the other night,
The fatefuI words were almost spoken,
Until she gossiped of her friends,
And then-ah, well, the charm was broken
A lover would be most unwise
To wed vixen. o, the pityl
For she would be my hearts first choice
Were she as good as she is pretty.
