FARM AND F.IREsIDE.

"A good, milk-fed barn cat is worth
more than her weight in poisons and
Ill the traps she could carry.
"A peck of fresh lime will absorb
three quarts of water, hence the adj
vantage of putting this amount Of cal-
careous matter in a damp cellar.
Cold water is decidedly the best to
use for tho face. as it is nearest to the
temperature Of atmospheric air, to-
which the face is continually exposed.
A field Of grass where sowed salt
three years ago remained green
throughout the dry weather when the
grass on other fields was dry and
brown, says q correspondent of the
Rural Nea0 Yorker.
Mules are less subject to disease
than horses. and their term of work
averages twice as long. For culti-
waiting crops mules are superior to
horses. as they walk Indian fashion,
one foot directly in front of the other.
"A man can be a farmer and not

teal or the farm can not pay. He must

Vienna Yeast: One yeast cake, one
pint warm water, two tablespoons
flour; stir together and let rise one
hour. Add twelve large potatoes
boiled and mashed fine, two-thirds cup
sugar, one-third cup of salt, and water
enough to make one gallon. Mix and
keep in a cold place. Stir we'll before
using.
French Loaf: Three heaping tea
cupfuls OF light bread, two cups of
white sugar, one cup of butter, three
eggs, one nutmeg, a small teaspoonful
OF saleratus, fruit to your liking. Rub
butter, sugar and eggs together, then
bread and fruit; mix thoroughly with
your hands; let rise little and bake
one hour. 1t is good with or without
fruit.
The practical benefit to be derived
from raising good stock depends,
among other things, upon the treat
ment received ut the owners hands.
Blood and breeding and rare natural
capacity are powerless to contribute to
successful stock raising, unless accom-
panied by the cooperation of human
thoughtfulncss, intelligent manage
ment and regular care.
Any soil upon which water does
not remain during winter, says wri-
ter in Picks Magazine, can be made to
grow small fruits; in fact, any soil
which will produce weeds will grow
them; but as there are few soils which
can produce two crops at the same
time. it is better not to try to grow
crop Of weeds and crop of strawber-
ries on the same soil together.

HOW TO RAISE STOCK.
Rules That Will Work with All Kinds of
Cattle and Horses.

Rules That Will Work with All Kinds of
Cattle ana Horses.
There is a great difference in the
kinds and manner of keeping stock to
make stock farming profitable. One
farmer tells you there is no profit in
raising horses, and it is better to buy
your horses than to raise them. If you
will look at his horse stock you will
find he is about right, for he has no
mare that he OF any other man can
name the blood of, and he breeds her
to horse Of the same kind to save a
few dollars in the start. When the
colt comes it runs its chance for living,
often getting the milk when the mare
is all heated up with work. After a
time the colt is thought old enough to
wean and is taken away from the mare
at once, but has not learned to eat and
will take no nourishment until starved
to it. Of course it will become poor
and is not much of colt when spring
comes; will take all summer to get in
reasonable condition, and runs the
gauntlet another winter between grown
horses and cattle. If it escapes acct
dent OF death from horns, when four
years old and about the size Of a fair
three-year-old, all hands are called in
to break the colt. II he don't break
his neck when first battered he is
harnessed and a blind bride put on
him, and he is hitched to the wagon;
he is afraid of every one and every
thing, and is very apt to kick, and
finally is a poor horse, not reliable any
where, and of course an Improbable
horse to raise. Such farmers are not
the ones to make horse-raising profit
able. Such men are always buying
horses, and seldom get such as they
want.
Another farmer will tell you he can
make more money raising horses than
any other stock. This is the way he
does it. He can tell you the blood of
every animal he has on the farm. His
brood mares are SO well bred that he
will have q good colt from each. He
has no use for poor sires; the horse he
breeds to must show a clear pedigree
and no blemish that can be transmitted.
He cares well for the mares; works
them reasonably, and when the colts
come they are taught to lead when only
few days old, and handled often and
taught not to be afraid of those who
care for them. They are taught to eat
as soon as possiLl,,. :,sid when ready to
wean are fed bette. and gradually
taken from their mother, so that by the
change from milk to grain, grass and
hay, they will not be badly affected.
They are fed particularly well the first
winter and handled often until old
enough to work, and then little care
full training makes them good reliable
horses, worth two or three of the first
described and cost, if any difference,
less feed and time; not so much, if YOU
consider accidental deaths and other
bad results in breeding. The first kind
Of horse-raising will pay never, the last
kind will pay every time. The same
rule will work, in the same way, with
all other kinds Of farm stock. ~ Western,
Agviculturist.

In your saIutatory you praise the

for the fact that, twenty-eight years

''the democratic party has no great
principle-this is its misfortune"
Now, why stop there? Is there not
another party with a great, leading

Has not theprohibition party great
and grand aim, "the preservation of
the union" from the wasting, with

shop and the liquor traffic? That
our beloved land needs this preser-
vatiOn is evident, for
the Toledo Blade, as

that "the country must kill the
liquor traffic, or the liquor traffic
will kill the country" Then, why
