FARM AND ElRESIDE.

"A plan recommended to induce a
sheep to own her lamb is to sprinkle
salt upon its back,
Cream Cake: One cup sweet cream.
one cup sugar, two eggs, two cups flour,
two teaspoons baking powder, and flavor
to taste.
Teaspoons vary in size, and the
an old-fashioned spoon of thirty years
ago. A medium-sized teaspoon con-
tains about dram. Four teaspoons
are equal to one tablespoon.
When busting the fowls with insect
powder put newspaper under them.
One can in this way gather up some of
the powder for use again, and will be
able to see also its destructive effect
upon the insects.
1t is wasIeful practice to haul
out manure in winter and leave it in
small heaps till spring. The manure
often heats and throws off the ammonia,
which is lost. If spread at once it will
not heat.
A very pretty ornament for room
is made by covering piece of board
with plush, then fasten u pair of gilt
slippers on the center for matches and
on each side put some hooks for keys,
etc. Hang by u cord.
1t has been found that one part OF
paris green or London purple sutfices
for $50 parts of plaster, when well
mixed together. to kill the potato
beetle. One-half pound of either poi
son sui1ices for five gallons of water.
Potato Custard: Crate six large
potatoes, add to them one quart of boil
ing milk; stir in three beaten eggs and
.one-quarter of a pound of sugar, boil
seven minutes, taking care not to let
it burn, then add one-half cup of but
ter. This will make three good sized
custardS.
If the land requires drainage ii
means an outlay of $2j to $50 per acre
before the farm can be made tillable
and productive. To test this matter
the soil should be dug into with spade
three feet deep, and if water rises in
the hole at any time of the year the
land needs thorough draining.
In putting out onion sets have the
ground very fine and simply place them
on the row, slightly pressing them
down, leaving the greater portion OF
the tops above the surface Where
onions are cultivated in large quanti-
ties the sets are thinly scattered in the
rows without regard to regularity and
thinly covered.

PETROLEUM V. NASBY."
sketch of the Life Of the Late ID. Il.
Locke.


In the village of Vestal, Broome county,
\. Y, Oh the 10th day Of September, 1873,
was born to Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Reed
Locke a boy baby.
This son thrived as an infant, iiourished as
youth and experienced innumerabe ups
and downs as u man
He was named David Ross Locke at an
early period Of his history, and rs Petro-
lcum Y. Nasty he made his eccentricities a
great power. Indeed, where thousands are
familiar with his real name and deeds, tens
of thousands know him by his pen name and
his writings
At the age of II years young Locke en-
tered the Office Of The Democrat, at Cort-
land, n. Y, as an apprentice, and there he
learned the printers trade. This accom-
plished, he started out on what was then the
usual tramping expedition, and either as a
-FOUR printer or a reporter he visited about
ali the great cities of the United States. A
iOurneyman printer gathers even less moss
than the rolling stone, but IN this period Of
his career d. X. Locke acquired a mine of
experience and knowledge of humanity that
he had occasion to draw from literally III
later years.
In 1882 he went from Pittsburg, where he
had been working for The Chronicle, to
The Daily times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1886-1889, 1888-02-22
Eighteen Months Was Nothing.

Judge Gary has probably made more witty
and quaint remarks on the bench than any
other judge in Chicago.
On one occasion when he was sitting in
the criminal court, he appointed young
attorney 70 defend young criminal VINO was
brought to trial and who had no lawyer
The young man had just been admitted to
the bar ard was consequently ambitious TO
make a reputation, but despite his utmost
endeayors bis client was sent up for ighteen
months.
After court adjourned the young man
walked over town with the judge and took
occasion to say:
That was pretty hard on me, Judge"
What was hardf asked the judge in his
absent minded way.
why, my first case wanted to get a
little start, and here my client gets eighteen
months
That's nothing" returned the judge, sell
tentiou,ly. "Aiy first client got eight years. 1"
