Advantages of Baling Hay.

Machines for baling hay have lately
been greatly improved and cheapened,
and the rapidity and ease of baling is
far ahead of past years. The advan-
tages of baled hay over loose is so
great that almost any farmer who
raises any large amount of hay can af-
ford to bale it. The writer has baled
good many hundreds of tons when it
was a slow and tedious process. But
even then when it had to be
hauled seven miles to market or
for feeding, it paid largely to bale
it. Twice as much can be handled by
the same team, it takes so much less
storage. The hay is preserved in a
better condition, and stock will eat it
cleaner. When baled, large amount
can be stored in a small barn or shed,
and thus saved from the hard storms
of summer and winter, which usually
destroy one-fourth of hay in stack and
render the balance defective. Baled
in any market is worth more than
loose. The difference usually is more
than enough to pay for baling. The
and speed of hauling,
storing, safety and quality largely pre-
dominate in favor Of baling. - Des

Sunshine in the Poultry Yard.

Sunshine is essential to successful
poultry culture. We should ever well
come it. No part of our premises
should be excluded from it. The glad
sunlight should find access to every
nook and corner of our poultry house.
1t should play upon the inner walls
and flood the floor and roosting places.
The little chickens should not be de-
void of it, but every opportunity should
be given it to warm and purify their
quarters. In the outer yards and runs,
the sunshine displays it's virtues by
making fresh and sweet places that
would otherwise be sources of disease
and death to our pets. It dries the
polluted soil, and dispels noxious va
pors. While dampness is to be dreaded,
the sunshine comes as messenger of
health and happiness.
We need also to invoke the sunshine
of our better natures in order to be
successful poultry-breeder. In times
of aggravation and disappointment we
should rally to our support the sunlight
of cheerfulness and hope. There are
times when it seems as if our ventures
will prove failures and our best efforts
come to naught. Misfortune follows
misfortune, and success seems to be
farther away than ever. But stay;
there is silver lining, even to such
dark cloud as this. Some of our
chickens have mysteriously disap-
peared, some have died and some are
s~.fo p,,{ fho 9TH
hand, we have few choice specimens
that are thriving. Here is a bright
spot. We have other eggs setting, and
so can try it again. Here is
something pleasant to think of and to
hope for. Turn on the light. Let the
is never full and complete. and rejoice
that some progress has been made.
The sunshine of kindness is ever
needed in the poultry yard. We all
have some fowls that seem to be pos
sessed with the spirit of perversity
and contrariness. Failing to do as we
would have them-espeeially some
hens with broods-and doing that
which we would not have them
do, such fowls are a source of worry
and annoyance, and are very likely to
arouse more or less ill temper. But
we should try to bear in mind the dis
tinction between man and a chicken,
and ever treat them kindly. 1t is the
only way to subdue or control them.
It frequently occurs also that we
need the sunshine of charity in our
poultry transactions. Charity of mind
and of heart. Eggs that we pay a
fancy price for sometimes hatch very
poorly, and we are disposed to con-
denim the party from whom we got
them; charity of this kind should be
tempered with justice. We would not
excuse fraud nor evil intentions; but,
where the cause of a bad hatch is un-
known, or the fault perhaps mutual,
we should not be hasty to condemn.
better to let in the sunshine and be
charitable in our reflections.-H. B.
Geer, in Southern Cnlticator.

JUDGING A HORSE.
Nine Rules Which Should Be Observed b
Careful Buyers.

Nine Rules Which Should Be Observed by
Careful Buyers.
l. Never take the sellers word. If
disposed to be fair, he may have been
the dupe of another, and will deceive
you through representations which can
not be relied upon.
2. Never trust horses mouth as a
sure index of his age.
3. Never buy horse while in mo-
ton; watch him while he is standing
at rest, and you will discover his weak
points. If sound, he will stand firmly
and squarely on his limbs without
moving any of them, feet planted fat
upon the ground, with legs plump and
naturally poised. If one is thrown
forward with the toe pointing
to the ground and the heel
raised, or if the foot is lifted from the
ground and the weight taken from
it disease of the navicular bone may
be suspected, or at least tenderness,
which is precursor of disease. If
the foot is thrown out, the toe raised
and the heel brought down the horse
has suffered from lamnitis, founder or
the back sinews have been sprained,
and he is of little future value. When
the feet are all drawn together be-
meath the horse, if there has been no
disease, there is a displacement of the
limb at least, and weak disposition of
the muscles. If the horse stands with
his feet spread apart or straddles with
his hind legs, there is a weakness of
the loins and the kidneys are disor-
dered. When the knees are bent and
totter and tremble, the beast has been
ruined by heavy pulling, and never
will be right again, whatever rest and
treatment he may receive. Contracted
or Inform ed hoofs speak for them
selves.
a. Never buy a horse with bluis h
or milky coat in the eyes. They in
dictate a constitutional tendency to
ophthalmia, blindness, etc.
5. Never have any thing to do with
a horse who keeps his ears thrown
backward. This is an invariable in
dication of bad temper.
6. If the horses hind legs are
SCARED, the fact denotes that he is
kicker.
z. If the knees are blemished, the
horse is apt to stumble.
8. When the skin is rough and harsh,
and does not move easily and smoothly
to the touch, the horse is heavy eater
and digestion is bad.
9. Avoid horse whose respiratory
organs are at all impaired. If the ear
is placed to the heart and a wheeling
sound is heard, it is an indication of
trouble.-T. Paul Pioneer Press.

bought with shrewd insight into the
directions of the city's growth, and are
worth pretty penny more than she
paid for them to-day. A second nurse,
who has distinguished herself beyond
the average, bought out restaurant
which does a thriving trade, the pref
its of which would keep her if she did
not prefer to retain the old manager. a
dapper little Frenchman, in charge,
and pursue the calling in which she
has succeeded. The regular rate for
the services of trained nurse $40 to
S24 and board per week, and the de-
mand is brisk enough to employ them
on an average forty-five weeks out of
the year. Unusually skilled nurses
sometimes get $50 or $50 per week,
while undergraduates in their second
years training are permitted to go out
at the rate of Sc week.
The nurses are recruited largely from
the ranks of those who would other
wise be milliners or dressmakers,
though many highly educated ladies
are found among them, attracted by
the work, which seems to them es-
pecially feminine. Some of the younger
nurses become SO much interested in
the medical end of their duties that after
graduating, they study medicine and
become practitioners. There is one
young girl in Bellevue now who gradu-
ated from a country college and came
to New York to teach and earn money
to pay her way through medical col
lege. She found that teachers wages
made her task an impossible one, and
went to the hospital to learn bust
ness that would pay better md help her
at the same time certain distance on
her road. Her course is likely to be fol-
lowed by other poor but ambitious girls.
The best paying field which has opened
before intelligent nurses with organic
ing and executive ability, however, has
been, after perfecting themselves, to
open training schools on their own &C
count in localities not supplied with
such schools. There are women who
have gone all over New York State and
good distances West establishing
centers from which go out devoted
nurses. This was the plan, though
not conceived with view to the finan-
cial return, which brought General
Wade Hampton's daughter to New
York to obtain the knowledge that
would fit her to start training schools
in the South. She has made one of
the best head nurses ever seen in
hospital ward, The number of nurses
is not equal to the demand yet, but it
is increasing SO fast that the profess
sion may be over-crowded, like most
departments of woman's work.-M. Y.

He wanted to refer to that celebrated
suit of clothes. When he opened the de-
bate April Il he made the statement that il
a suit of clothes could be bought for five
days labor, and the tariff on that suit was
100 per cent, it would increase the cost of
the clothes to ten days labor. The gentle
man from Ohio Mckinley had produced
suit of clothes and said: ''Here is suit
of clothes bought for SO in Boston" He
(Mills) had taken pains to trace that suit of
clothes up. Its exact cost was s66S. It
weighed four pounds and four ounces; the
labor cost was 81. 65. 1t required seventeen
pounds of wool to make that suit of clothes,
which at duty of 10 cents per pound
amounted to 81. 20, which, subtracted from
s6.6S, gave "a. IS as the cost of that so suit.
He was told that that suit was to be photo
graphed for use in the campaign. He
hoped that the fact was to be photographed
on the minds of the people that this SO
suit cost less than IS and that it cost ten
days labor to purchase it. The gentleman
from Chic (IcKinley) had said that it was
the old story, and that he had read it in
Adam Smith. That reminded him mills
of the boy who had stolen his brothers
marbles. The little fellow told his mother,
who called her other son before her
and reprimanding him for what he had
done said: ''Don't you know the Lord
will be angry with yous Are you not

The White Men of jackson, Miss.



see in the Journal of the 5th statement
that at the recent city election in Jackson, Miss
the Democratic ticket was elected because the
324 negroes were not allowed to vote, under
threats of violence.
The inference to be drawn is that the white
Republicans own and operate almost everything
of commercial value in the town. and that the
white Republicans and the negroes who vote
with them are a majority of the voters.
It occurs to me, as ] believe it
would to every Northern Republican.
that if those jackson Republicans
will stand by and permit such things they
charge to be done, they are not worth much.

small minority, would fight before they would
allow the majority to intimidate voters, and our
Democrats know it. Are the Jackson. Miss,
