A Story About a Hen.

A woman in Westticld who makes IN
feature of raising fowls and selling
eggs. recently found that her hens
were dying off because unable to di.
gest certain kind OF food she gave
them. There were a dozen or more
moping around, their crops full of the
food and all seeming likely to follow
the two or three already dead. As a
last resort the woman took one of the
fowls into the house, and with a sharp
pen-knfe opened its crop and removed
the contents. The wound was then
carefully scwed up and the fowl
placed in warm box. After couple
OF hours it was taken out of the coop
and put among the other fowls. Next
morning the good woman heard clat-
tcring on her back steps and a tapping
at the door Looking out, she saw the
hen she had operated upon cheerfulIy

and the tall, eagle-crowned shaft that
marks the spot can be seen from the
East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia
railroad for several miles. Travellers
approaching the town watch for it with
eager eyes. The lot is neatly enclosed
with AZ iron fence and the inclosure
contain' in addition to the principal
shaft several smaller monuments. Sew
eral children of the dead President are
buried around him, and the lot through.
out bears evidence Of the most sedu.
lous care and attention. The most
imposing feature of the shaft is the
bronze eagle on the top. Its head is
turned toward the Appalachian range
-grandly blue in the distance-and
its wings are spreading as though the
great American bird was preparing to
fly away to the pine-covered ravines of
the mountains. In the foreground is
the quaint little town Of Greenville-a

ket; then she began to make wheat and
graham bread. charging only eight
cents a LOAF. and coming in eompeti-
ton with the bakers rs she made a
better loaf at about The same price.
Her father, whose name stands
at the head of her business. though the
daughter has done the work, is now the
largest baker in that city. His daughter
employs ten or twelve hands, and con-
tinues her work on plain domestic prin-
ciples. There Is room in that city for
number Of other just such bakers.
There is always a demand in the cities
for cottage cheese or pot cheese which
is fresh and well made. The mass OF
this product now furnished to city mar
kets is made by poor peasants from
Europe. who have primitive ideas of
cleanliness, and usually feed their cows
on slops. Though there is a law pro-
hibiting this. it is Systematically eva.
ded. especially in the smaller cities.
Good gingersnaps usually find ready
sale. 1t is wise for a woman to confine
herself to one thing at first. gain a
steady market for that in the nearest
city, or even in large village, then
add some other household products
that she is sure that she can make well.
She must not expect exorbitant profits
or her customers will be few. She must
keep strict account of her expenses
and income, and be content with small
profits, and many customers are sure
to come. There is always more demand
'or good bread and plain cake than for
my fancy or rich cakes-N. Y. Tri6-

ASPARAGUS CULTURE,
Methods successfully Practiced by a Well
Known MArket-Gardener

Known Market-Gardener.
President j. Nj. Smith, of the Wis
consin Horticultural Society, who's,
home and market gardening is justly
celebrated, gives a report of his aspar,
agus which ought to encourage every
occupant of land to provide supply OF
this unequalled early green. His best
plantation is twenty years old and
yields annually a crop of as fine quality
aswas ever raised in the United States.
The story of the way "this splendid
bed was made and is cared for, should
be influential against the mistaken idea
so widely prevalent. that the start and
culture are difficult, whereas, in fact,
no other product is so easily obtained
and perpetuated: ..r
Soil. sandy-loam; manured very
heavily. then plowed, turning the
manure under; plowed 8 to 10 inches
deep. Burrows feet apart and about 6
inches deep, in no case more that 7
inches; furrows made with common
shovel plow. Plants either one or
two years old from the seed, were
placed in the bottom of these burrows
about 10 to IS inches apart, taking care
to spread the roots in their natural posi-.
tons; this is very easy to do. After
the plants were so placed the earth
was drawn back into the furrow and |
pressed down with the feet, and the
bed was finished. Since that time !,
it has been kept free of weeds
and grass, and every spring the tops
have been cut off and burned, a good
coat OF manure put on and dug under,
using the common six-tined manure
forks for the purpose, being careful not
to disturb the roots of the plants. The
result has been that since it came to its
best about three years after setting,
1t has never once failed to yield
crop.
We cut some from it the second year,
but not much. In cutting care should
DC taken to cut it clean as long as it is
ut mt all. As a market crop it is
one until there is surplus.
md then | have found it to be as near
worthless as any crop we grow. To
ny family and visiting friends, it is one
# the most delicious dishes that come
rom the garden, and it is rare that o
arge dish of it does not find its way to
'ur table at least once day from its
rst appearance in early spring until
he season is nearly over. or until our
econd sowing of peas are at their best
'ne thing more. The reason for
eaving the tops on the buds without ,
utting until spring is: When the ,
now falls the tops catch and hold it. ,
t remains there until it melts and is e,
ne best mulch for the buds that we can
ave. 1t always leaves the ground in ,
le best of order for early working, I
nd the plants can be started some !
ays earlier in this way than by any :
