Of three horses and mule. The
mule colt and one horse was about
twenty months old, aud the other
two were about three years old.
All Of them are well grown for
their age, in spleaiid condition,
and would to-day sell for a good

Mr.. Lane is giving considerable

Rye as IL Fertilizer.

Many farmers are letting their sons use
portion of the farm for growing small
fruits and vegetables. Such land as
these young men usually have to work
is very far from being in the condition
of soil occupied for some years as a
market garden and needs more manure
than the farmer can spare. In such u
case we have witnessed the effect of
turning under a heavy crop of rye. The
land is rather too stiff for working early
III the spring. If worked before it is
quite dry 1t is apt TO bake.
After crop of potatoes was taken off
such piece of land, rye was sown the
last of August The next spring, in May,
an immens, mass of green rye as high
as the horses backs was carefully plowed
under. The land worked nicely, but the
effect on the crop was not as beneficial
as the gardner expected. But the fol-
lowing spring, in blowing up the land,
he was surprised and delighted to find
the soil in such mellow condition.
The pillow turned up a great mass of de-
cayed rye that looked like manure and
had all the effect of manure, at any rate
so far as the mechanical condition of the
soil was concerned. BY the aid of few
hundred pounds of commecial fertilizer
per acre, he obtained as good crops on
this land as he would have had from the
application of a heavy dressing of stable
manure. He thinks he has solved the
question of how to carry on a farm gar
den situated too far to draw manure
from the town. In other words, pillow
under rye and use commercial fertilizer.
There are other crops equally good
and some better for this purpose, but
rye is very convenient, as it can be sown
at any time plot of land happens to be
vacant, from August to December. In
August three pecks to a bushel of seed
per acre is sufficient on good, mellow
land, but later it is better TO sow thicker
say one and one half per acre.
There is one pleasant feature of this
method that cOmmends to all who love Il
neat, we'll titled farm. Instead of the
land being covered with old potato vines,
or rubbish, or weeds, you have a fine,
dark green, luXuriant crop growing all
through the fall, winter, and early spring
months. If for nothing else, it pays to
SOW rye for looks.

Cold Weather Ruies.

Never go to bed with cold or damp
feet.
Never lean with the back on any
thing that is cold
Never begin journey until the
breakfast has been eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then
Immediately go out into the cold.
After exercise of any kind. never ride
in an open carriage or near the window
of q car for q moment; it is dangerous
to health, or even life.
Never omit regular bathing, for I'M
less the skin is in active condition the
cold will close the pores and favor con-
gestion and other diseases.
When hoarse speak as little as pos
sible until the hoarseness is removed,
else the voice may be permanently
lost, or difficulties of the throat lie
produced.
When going from warm atmosphere
into a cooler one, keep the mouth
closed, so that the air may be warmed
in its passage through the nose ere it
reaches the lungs.
Merely warm the back by the fire,
aud never continue keeping the back
exposed t. the heat after it has become
comfortably warm. To do otherwise is
facilitating.
Never stand still in cold weather,
especially after having taken a slight
degree of exercise, and always avoid
standing on ice or snow. or where the
person is exposed to cold wind.
Keep the back, especially between
the shoulder blades, well covered
also the chest well protected. In sleep
ing in cold room establish the habit
of breathing through the nose, and
never with the mouth open.

The Scheme Didn't Work.

A Brussels lace merchant had re-
ceived from a Belgian, residing in Paris,
an order for quantity of Malines lace.
Tie goods were carefully packed in q
lead coffin, which was dispatched to the
Paris address as containing a corpse.
The Paris merchant had to wait so long
for the arrival of the body" that he at
length complained to the manager of the
Northern Railway, who informed him
that the coffin had been detained at the
frontier owing to the noncompliance
with certain prescribed formalities re-
lating to the transmission of corpses.
The merchant at once took train to
Quievrain, dressed in solemn black AM
with a morning band round his hat, and
wearing an expression of profound sad
ness. But in spite of his emphatic pro-
test against such an act of Dissertation
the officials insisted on opening the coz
fin, when the truth came to light and
the ingenious smuggler was taken into
custody.

THE POULTRY-YARD.
Poultry Notes.

HOUSE those late chicks comfortably.
and feed them we'll, else they viii on
growing, get tired and discouraged, and
finally quit living.
II you scatter some grain among straw
or leaves and keep the hens at work
scratching, they Will lay better and keep
III better health.
DEAD leaves can be turned to good
account i'll the poultry house this win
ter; so rake them up when they are dry,
and store them away where they will
| keep dry.
ALL things considered mixed food
will be found to be the best, that is,
some soft and some hard feed. As soon
as cold weather sets in whole corn at
night can nearly always be fed with
profit and then in the morning and al
noon other materials can be used.
As A rule the very old hens lay but
/ few eggs during the winter. In a ma
jority of cases their principal value is in
their being good mothers, and if they
are not especially valuable for this pur-
pose, keeping them longer than three
years viii not usually be found profit
able.
( POULTRY that are to be wintered over
should not be fed too much in the fall.
/ The better plan is to gradually increase
the feed rs cold weather sets in. While
| the weather is more favorable and the
poultry can run ont they Will pick uI
/ considerable food, and if fed too strong
they viii get too fat, aud either extreme
is always to be avoided.
Go CAREFULLY over the poultry house
ana fasten up all the cracks; arrange tc
have everything as comfortable as pos
! sible. y little work spent in this way
Will go long way towards securing a
supply of eggs when they Will sell at
good prices and reduce the amount OF
feed necessary TO keep in good, thrifty
condition

pulse. BY the latter I mean the desire
| OF the bees TO swarm and the necessary
preparations which all normal colonies
make for 5warming.
Herewith | give the management of
one method of preventing swarminp
! which many apiarist are practicing. In
my opinion the manufacturers of these
/ non swarmlng hives, as they are called.
/ are making the money, and the bee
! keepers who use them are losing from
one-t third to one-half their cron of
! honey by using them according to printed
/ directions. The method for preventing
swarming is to reverse the combs every
/ six or seven days during the honey sea-
son. reversing the combs means to
! turn them bottom side up. From a long
/ study OF bees and their work, | come to
+ the following conclusion as to why
colonies do not work as well as if they
/ had not been troubled with the swarm
! ing impulse. The old bees that should
! be filling the aections with honey from
/ the fields, seem to be loafing or taking
/ matters easy, saving their energy and
strength to work in their new home
which they expect to occupy in a Few
days. The young bees appear to do
most of the work, and many of them are
making their first trips to the fields.
/ This may be easily determined by watch
| ing them return with their load Of honey
or pollen, alighting, some in the hive to
! which they belong, some in empty hives
near by, and some in hives occupied by
/ other bees, which is sure death to the
f.! beginners at certain seasons of the year.
! Old bees never go to the wrong hive
! There are but two ways or methods
/ which | can recommend to prevent
swarming. The cause of swarming is
/ traced to the change of the queen. Ny
/ first method is to supercede all queens
that have been laying one season, about
the 10th of May, with a young queen.
/ The second and only sure method is to
/ secure new race of bees that never re-
/ produce themselves, but grow, on the
/ Darwinian plan, perhaps, from some
/ other source. The latter is conun-
! drum never solved. If this last method
| does not satisfy the bee keepers, then
swarming must go on as it has for ages
! past, or as long as the honey bee lives
/ in colonies.-H. Il. IshGn,, IN AB,ericda

Who Are the Lucky Ones.

After all, what is luck? She is the
handmaiden of every man at one time
or another. She is ever by ones side,
ready to give a helping hand The
blind do not see her; the timid or IL
resolute decline to take her out
stretched hand. The unlucky man is
the man who forgets to strike when
the iron is hot. The lucky man is the
one who takes advantage Of proffered
fortune. Circumstances, it is to be
confessed, throw more of such protfers
in the way of one than another But
if one will follow the footprints of the
lucky men of the world it will be found
that at the points where they seized
fortune at the food there are tracks
which show there We're many faltering
and hesitating ones near by, any one Of
whom had within his reach the same
opportunities as the fortunate one had.

Baby's Toilet.

Every mother knows how difficult it is
to clean the baby's finger nails; and that
no baby ever enjoys the operation.
BY folding some tissue paper into a
sharp point, and, when using i, calling
the attention of the baby to something
else, this simple task can be easily per-
formed. The paper is so soft that ii
doas not hurt the tender flesh, yet it is
sufficiently firm to remove every particle
of dirt.
Many little ones cry when they see
their tub coming, and feeling that his
need not be the case, l wish to speak
about the baby's bath.
My children sometimes cry when taken
out of the water, but never when they
are put in. / think it is because they
have such good frolic in the bath that
they dislike to leave it. The tub should
be but half full of water, and should be
placed on two chairs or low stand; foI
there is danger of draughts if it is
placed on the floor. Set it before an
open fire if possible, and see that all the
babys clothes are warm and we'll aired
before putting them on.
In winter, when giving very young
infant bath. it is best to wrap it in a
large piece of old flannel until it has
been in the tub for minute or two. The
water should be lukewarm.

THE iIOU SEHOLD.
Spla shcr for Wash Stand.

One of the many good uses to which
rods and rings are now put Is to hold
a wash stand splasher, and the arrange
ment is especially desirable, as it can be
taken down and put up again SO easily.
The splashers are made of a straight
piece of linen crash, raveled ont on each
end, and knotted to form fringe. Above
the fringe embroider in outline any
pleasing design, on opposite sides of
the ends, so that when folded the en-
broidery will all be on the right side.
One end is then folded over about one
third of the length. Work as many eye
let holes on the upper part of the fold
as you need rings, and fasten small
screw hook in the bottom of each ring
on which to slip the eyelets, and in this
way hold the splasher in place. \ lily
design may be worked in outline with
deep red marking cotton; embroidery
silk can be substituted. if before using
they have been prepared so that the col
ors will not fade when the splasher is
washed. Drawn work is also pretty
above the fringe, and designs can be
traced in indelible inks instead of using
embroidery, if preferred, as both styles
of ornamentation are suitable and
pretty.-Tbe Cottage Hearth.

The only difficulty that now remained
was as to how she could get the poison
in the cup without being seen.
The opportunity soon arrived.
Some OF the guests We're leaving and
Lenora went to the window to see who
it was.
As quick as a flash she drew the bot
tie from her pocket and dropped its
contents into Lenora's cup, just how
much she did not know, but she hoped
it was enough to send the breath Of life
quickly from her hated rival.
Lenora soon returned to her choco-
late.
"How many were gG>ag?'
"Only two gentlemen.
"Ah, yes, | remember now. They
babe me good-by last night; two friends
of Rays from Boston"
"How strangely this chocolate tastes
this morning. Did you enjoy it, jean
nette?"
"Oh, yes; only / thought it little
strong, and | do not feel very we'll
since / drank it."
Il generally enjoy my cup very much,
but perhaps | have not yet quite re-
covered from the effects of the ball"
Still Lenora drank of that awful
steaming cup Of poison, and Jeanette
looked at her with an inward feeling of
victory.
ooh, dear! I feel very uncomforta-
ble If you will excuse me | will re-
turn to my room"
This wicked, deceitful woman rose
and went to the door, and just as she
passed out she saw Lenora set the
empty cup on the table.
