Injury 70 seed Grain.

Within a few years the Importance
OF carefully drying corn intended for
seed has been thoroughly emphasized
by many careful experiments. 1t is
not enough that corn should germi.
nate. THE vigor Of its after growth
depends SO largely on the way the
seed has been kept that it will pay
to get thoroughly dried seeds at
almost any price rather than to risk
seed taken Unfortunately from the
crib. I have long thought that the
small grains intended for seed should
be saved with equal care. Do not let
the grain heat either in NOW, stack or
granary. 1t is impossible to keep new
grain in bulk without first OF last
undergoing a sweating process, which
is really a drying process. OF course
it harms the grain less to have this
sweating before than after thresh-
ing. Grain that heats in the eranary
alter will not grow. But that which
has sweat in the stack or NOW is also
injured. Grain for seed should be
thrown on scaffolds until it is ready
to thresh and after threshing spread
thinly until cold weather, or until
thoroughly dried. Seed thus saved
will give a good stand OF vigorous
plants that viii spread and send UP
many shoots from one.

they must, begin to put them in con.
dition. Do not feed too hard while
she extreme hot weather lasts, but
keep them thriving so that they may
be ready to put on fat in the nexttwo
or three months. Good pasturage,
waste vegetables and a little grain
should give them q start.

THE FARM.
Farm Asses.


Experiments show that cabbage
and lettuce when the leaves are
brought together and tied, head earli.
er than when left open.
Lime. in a fine condition. sprinkled
on the vines and around them, will
greatly assist in protecting cucumber
and squash from bugs. A teaspoon
full of saltpeter, dissolved in a quart
of water, is also q protection.
The warmer the weather the more
rapidly lice and all other kinds OF
vermin multiply. At this season it
often happens that an animal or bird
is apparently sick when it is really
suffering from the attacks Of vermin.
On heavy soils that bake easily a
crust forms on the surface after every
rain. This should be broken in order
to prevent loss of water from thenext
shower, and also to admit cir and
light.
This is an excellent time to use land
plaster on grass. The plaster has an
affinity for moisture, and attracts it
from the atmosphere. 1t also sup
plies lime in a soluble form (sulphate
OF lime). 1t IS also claimed for it that
it attracts and retains ammonia from
the atmosphere.

harvesting Barley.

No Greg needs closer attention or
greater promptitude in harvesting
than barley. 1t is when fully ripened
so easily stained that exposure even
to dews will inJure It's sale TOR brewing.
But if cut somewhat green, as it ouxfi6
20 be. it stains less readily, the juices
in tie gram preventing it from alb
sorbing moissure and the heavy green
awns protecting the outside from be-
coming wet. After drying n little, bar
ley should be protected from rains by
being put in cocks and covered with
hay caps. 1t is not a crop to be har-
vested with a seli-binding reapel. as
the green barley will nearly always
mould around the band where the air
cannot circulate through it. The old
selErolling reaper, throwing the govels
at CORAL distances, is the best machine
for harvesting. After allowing to lie
through the day fork these up a night
in medium cocks, and leave twenty
four or forty-eight hours according to
weather and condition Of the grain.
If secured then and left until cold
weather before oeing threshed barley
will hardly be injured.

Bees MIXING FruIts.

That bees serve a valuable purpose
in carrying pollen from one plant to
another has Iona been known. s0f
some varities OF flowers the fertiliza-
tion depends very largely on the bee.
Others fertillze themselves, or pollen
is blown from other flowers by the
winds. 1t would be thought that the
bees would thss hybridize plants by
bringing pollen to flowers OF different
species. But the bees instinct teach
es it to gather honey OF only n kind
OF plant at atime. Thus IL may cross
varities OF the same species. but it
does not create monstrosities such as
might be produced by the cross-ferrili-
zation Of widely differing species.

Butter Making in England.

The Royal Agricultural Society Of
England ci~rculates the following sim
pie rules for butter making; Rinse IN
cold water all dairy utensils to be
used, such as churn, butter worker,
wooden butter hands, etc. Now
scald with hot water and rinse again
with cold. Always use a thermom-
eter. The churn and cream TO be at
a temperature of SO to So degrees in
Summer, and go degrees in Winter.
Ventilate the churn freely and FREE
quently during the churning, until no
air rushes out when the peg is taken
out. Churn at forty to forty-three
revolutions per minute. Stop churn-
ing Immediately after the butter
comes. This can be ascertained by
the sound; if ing doubt, look. The
butter should now be like gr ANS OF
mustard seed. Draw off the butter
milk, and wash the butter in the
churn with plenty OF cold water.
Turn the churn two or three times
very gently, then draw off the water,
and repeat the process until the water
drawn off is quite clear and free from
buttermilk. Make a strong brine and
pour into churn through a hair sieve.
Wash the butter thoroughly and
draw off brine; take ths butter out Of
the churn and put it on the butter
worker, which use until every drop OF
buttermilk is pressed out OF the
butter. Never touch the butter with
your hands.

THE JEWELRY TRADE.
A Large Retailer Tells Why He Does Not
Employ Women.

Employ Women.
"You wonder why jeweler. don't en-
ploy women as saleswomen more than
they do? Well, there is a variety OF
reasons why they shouldn't. -
'In the first place. customers won't
rely upon woman's judgment in the
matter of gems. Suppose. for instance,
you came into my store to buy your
wife $500 pair of earrings. Behind
one counter is pretty young woman
for. of course, if we employed women
they would have to be pretty-and be-
hind the other is a young man. Now,
which of the two would you 60 TOP
Why. the young man, of course. When
making such purchase you would nat
urally prefer to be guided by his judg-
ment than by that of woman.
"Then another and very serious OBJ
lection to the employment of women is
that, as a rule. they wont stay with us
long enough. We value our employees
for the length of time they have been
with us. All of our salesmen have been
in our employ for long time. some Of
them for over quarter of a century.
How many women would have stayed
with US that long? Very few. Most
women employed in stores marry after
few years service.
"No, women are not suited to the
jewelry business. 1t is true that they
take great interest in gems and jew
elry, but the popular idea that they
have better knowledge of them than
men is mistaken one, and do not
know of any cases where they have
been successfully employed as either
| buyers or saleswomen.
lone might suppose that the manu-
facture of jewelry was work in which
women would succeed, but experience
shows that such is not the case. In the
factories the women perform what may
be described as almost menial work,
such as polishing and Furnishing, and
no matter how long they remain at the
trade they rarely make any progress
toward the higher branches. nor indeed
do they show any inclination to do SO. -

Grows in Nebraska.

An Omaha letter says that the chief
features of Nebraska, next to blizzards
and heroic schoolma' ans, is crows
These crow colonies are well organized
and evidently know what they are
about. The wonder is that their in
stinct, which in crows and ravens bor-
ders close upon intelligence, does not
send them farther south during the cold
season. With the regularity of the sun
they come across the river from Council
Bluffs, filling the air with their hoarse
calls. They arc tame and feed with the
poultry in private premises, and try titles
with the dogs for the bones. in which
contest they are usually victorious.
They are the street scavengers of the
city, and as numerous as The children
in populous districts. They gather
like co ommittees on public improve
ments in unoccupied districts, and with
their crow pantomime look as though
they were stalking out corner lots. In
the late afternoons their preparation
for returning to their night haunts is
evidently no haphazard operation.
Some winged sentinel that evidently
takes notes of time sends down from
the upper air his hoarse signal as the
Mussulman from his turret, and in a
twinkle all heads are turned toward
the east, the black mass moves and
flies off. and. as far as the eye can see
stretches in tapping clots across 'he
