Plague of Rats in China.

A plague of rats is reported in a re-
cent number of the Pebi'a Gazette, which
recalls the German legend of the rats
of Hamelin. Certain postal routes
have had to he changed in Outer Mon
golia on account of the honey -combing
OF the whole country by myraids of
rats, who have burrowed and eaten up
the pasturage SO extensively that the
supply of food for camels and horses is
greatly diminished, and the burrows
are dangerous to all mounted travellers
and couriers. The prize offered by the
Australian Government for the rid
dance of the rabbits which infest that
country may afford a suggestion to the
authorities in China to offer induce
ments which M. Pasteur or some I'M
known Wilmington may find advan-
tageous enough to undertake the task
of Kidding the country of these vermin.
China and the Chinese have been
afflicted enough of late, what with
earthquakes, floods, restricted emigra-
ton, etc. DemoresFs Monthly.

PRESERVING EGGS,
"A Few Rules That Are Worthy of Noti,
and Consideration.

A Few Rules That Are Worthy of Motto.
and Consideration.
Although there are dozens of meth.
DDS for preserving eggs, yet but few
of them are worthy of notice. LINED
eggs have been almost unstable this
year, and the lime method will soor
be discarded. We give below a few
rules that will enable our readers tc
preserve eggs in a good condition for
at least three months, though eggs
have been kept as long as six months
by the process.
l. Always use fresh eggs, and do not
rely on those from your neighbor.
You must know that every egg is
fresh, as one stale egg may injure all.
2. Use eggs only from hens not in
company with cocks, as such eggs will
keep three times as long as those con-
tanning germs of chicks.
3. Keep them in a cool place-the
cooler the better. Anywhere near forty
deg. above zero will answer, though
sixty deg. will be cool enough for s
few months. Only be careful that eggs
do not freeze.
4. Turn them half over three timess
week, to prevent them from adherine
to the shells. The turning of the eggs
is very important, and is one of the Sc.
crets of success.
5. No packing material is necessary.
Simply lay them ON racks or shelves;
though, if preferred, they may be
packed in boxes, in dry oats, and the
boxes turned.
6. Solutions. greasing the eggs, egg
preparations, ETC., are un.
necessary, as some of them injure the
of the eggs.
z. Wash every egg clean before
placing it with the others.
If the above rules are followed there
will be no difference between eggs 80
preserved and those that are fresh.
No person can succeed in preserving
eggs who buys them from all sources,
and who does not know just when
every egg was. laid, and it is on that
point that so many failures occur.
You cali not place any dependence on
eggs except from your own hens.
Even your neighbor is sometimes un- !
able to prevent getting stale egg in
among the fresh ones. Never use |
stale eggs as nest eggs, or allow sit |
ing hens to be in the room with your
ayers. The greatest care should be
and the eggs kept ALWAYS

Hotels in Honduras.

DO you want to see how Honduran.
ian hotel is furnished? My room is ON
a corner fronting a plaza and sea on
the north, and looking toward the an
Gent church across the street on the
west. The floor is covered by one large
oil-cloth. In one corner is camp cot.
On the canvas a cotton sheet is spread;
over that another sheet and white
bedspread or counterpart. Two pill
lows of feathers. Over all mosquito
bar trimmed with lace and ornamented
with tassels of colored worsted. On
the light wooden wash-stands are
bowls of porcelain, and besides them
glass pitchers holding clear rain water
drawn from an iron tank. LIP the pub
lie sitting room the floor is covered
with oil-cloth, as are all others on this
floor, and there are six or eight chairs
of American make. A piano is at one
side. and in the middle of the room q
handicapped table is covered by
pretty little shells from the beach.
Such is first-class hotel in TruJlllo.
Worse places and worse fare have been
known-Cor. Chic<'an Times.

Naming the First Baby

A momentous family question this,
especially as regards the first baby, for
as the babies increase, their happy
parents become less fastidious about
the selection of Names Your egotistic
papas and mammas usually name their
first boy and girl after themselves-a
foolish proceeding that breeds con-
fusion and tends to waste of time,
labor and stationery by rendering
the suffix 'junior" necessary to the
signature of the youthful dupli-
Gates. Although this reproductory
nomenclature may crafty the pride
of parents in one way, it is likely
enough to mortify their vanity in an
other. It is not pleasant to we'll
looking, middle-aged paterfamilias to
be styled Mr.. So-and-So, senior. The
word smacks of the downhill of life
and is suggestive OF gray hairs; and
the term 1.-The old lady," used as con-.
tra-distinguishing the buxom matron,
Mary, from her half-grown daughter of
the same name, CRATES harshly on the
sensitive ear of the party of the first
part. It is best to look ahead and
avoid the possibility of such invidious

CARE OF GRAPE-vINES.
Cow to Secure Il Rapid, Healthy and
Beautiful Growth.

Beautiful Growth.
| The vine trimmed as it should be
will in spring consist of a number o
canes, at about equal distance, say tw'
or three feet apart, over the space thu
covered. Even a little farther apar
will be better If this wood is al
young and lively Cor if old, well Sc
with spurs,) each eye or spur viii
throw out one or more shoots, witt
from one to three or more lunches O
fruit on each. Now, only certain
number of these shoots will have room
to grow without crowding, hence, {
judicious thinning is oftentimes bene
fetal. Then again, there are more
punches on shoot often, thar
it is safe to have remain, provid
ing, of course, quality as well as guam
tity is desideratum. So leave nc
more than two punches on the same
shoot, and the extra growth of these
will more than make up the difference.
Having then thinned out supertluous
shoots and punches, the next step is
the branches themselves. The lead
ers, that is, the main shoots, if cover
ing trellises or walls, may be allowed
to grow on until the space is filled and
stopped two or three eyes beyond.
This gives some wood to cut back the
next winter on pruning. The shoots
scattered all over the plant, on which
a couple of punches is left, will also
want stopping. This may be done a
point beyond the last bunch. The eff
feet of this is to cause an increase OF
size in the leaves remaining.
BY and by, shoots will again start
out, which are again stopped, always
keeping the main eye from starting, If
possible, which is best done by leav-
ing a leaf and shoot beyond, which
being at the extremity will start first.
A well-attended vine will have large
quantity of very large, vigorous
leaves; one allowed to grow as il
pleases, a vast mass of smaller ones,
each struggling for the mastery with
the under ones in the race, and yellow
ing and falling early. The leaves are
the lungs of any plant, and the more
perfect they are the finer the flowers
or fruit as the case may be. Very
large, fine strawberries will al.
ways be noticed on such plants as
have vigorous bold foliage. There
is no exception to these rules. In
grape vines where there is no consid.
cradle space to fill, and any particular
vine seems to take the lead, if a GOOD
sort, it is well to encourage it's growth
by giving as much space or room as il
will occupy-this is how very large
vines originate.
Sometimes thrips, little jumping in.
sects, play havoc in the leaves of vines
They may be got rid of by spraying
with Observation-Disclosures in almost
any form, either as smoke, when il |
IAN be applied, or snuff, or tobacco
water is equally effective. There are
other forms, sometimes troublesome
he aphis, for example, but these are
got rid Of by the same means as, and
more easily than, the thrips. Prairie

"A recent statistical publication
shows that In all the countries of
Europe except six the ratio of the in-
crease of population is lessening, on
account of the decrease in the rate of
births as compared with that of deaths.
The six exceptional countries are Hol-
land, Great Britain, Roumania, Sweden,
Denmark and Norway. So it would
seem that, as of yore, it is still the
