trip to the Pacific Coast a few days

well. Mr.. Larson win visit that
country again later in the season, and

Bro Myers says that Bro. Houser
steals his sermons from Mr.. Moody
The circumstances do not warrant the
charge, but for arguments sake let us
plead guilty, and then we must add
that Mr.. Houser does well in aiming so
high. Mr.. Moody is a grand example
for any young man Tor old man for that
matter) to emulate in both words and
acts, and no doubt Mr.. Moody would
be pleased to know that he had such a
worthy imitator. If brother Myers
sermons are no better than his news
paper article, his congregation would
no doubt be greatly pleased to have
him steal his sermons also, and they
would not be very particular as to
where he got them, either.

The sale of tickets for the Boston
Quintette Club, this Saturday evening

better secure their reserved seats at

music should not fail to be present.
The Charleston Courier says: The
greatest musical event of the season
came off at the Academy last evening,
in one of the uncomfortable concerts of
the world famous Boston Quintette
Club. 1t is folly to attempt anything
like criticism of the performance of
these great artists. Their music is
simply the very perfection of harmony.

pour forth the most enchanting melo-

THE OK BOW MEADOWS.

OF the many fine Vermont farms in
the Connecticut valley, those in New
bury, Orange county, are among the
best. ThefamOus Ok Bow meadows
here attracted settlers from Massa-
chusetts as early as 1850, when most
of Vermont was an uncXplOred will
derness. One of the famous farms in
this vicinity is the Ok Bow farm,
owned and conducted by Messrs.
Daniel A. and Frank E. kimbal1. The
farm as q whole, embraces several
hundred acres, though $50 acres are
i'll meadow, the balance bcingin wood
and pasture. The annual crops aver
age 300 tons of hay, 20 acres of field
corn, Is acres of ensilage corn and
20 acres of oats. Last fall the entire
corn crop was placed i'll their silos,
by reason of early frost SO satisfac-
tory has been the result that it is
proposed to pursue the same course
next season.
The mammoth barn is in the form
of an l., measures 36Ox42 feet, and is
located so that the driveway is in
the roof of the entire length The
silO is Of wood, and constructed in
part of the barn formerly occupied in
storing hay.
Dairving is the main business of the
farm, and $50 COWS are fed on the
place, 100 of which are now in milk,
with the balance due to calve in
few weeks. Three men now take
care of the entire herd. The milk is
carried to the Haverhill, n H., cream
cry During the month of December
the butter netted about 80 cents per
pound. The sour milk is fed to 40
hogs.
The COWS are mostly grade Dur
hams, bought in the northern and
western part of the state. This par
ticular grade of COWS, Mr.. Kimball
thinks, is better adapted for large
diaries than any other, as when any
undesirable ones are purchased, as
alwaysis the case, they can be better
disposed of for beef or by shipping to
Boston than any other breed. The
COWS have daily two feelings of hay;
at noon feed of ensilagc; also two
feeds of grain per day, the latter a
mixture of meal and shorts, bought
in carload lots from the West. Sew
eral carloads of surplus hay are an
nually pressed and sold in the Boston
market.
The stables are in the basement of
the barn. Each stable occupies about
50in length by 10 i'll width. The tie
ups arranged on three sides, thus al
lowing sufficient space in each stable
for the manure, which is drawn to
the meadows during the winter when
the farm teams are not engaged in
other work.
The calves on the farm are fattened
for market. Large calves are thus
desired and two thoroughbred Hol-
stein bulls are kept for use. Last
year 100 horses were bought i'll Wis
cOnsin, freighted to the farm, finding
ready purchasers within q 20 mile
radius. Two fine young Percheron
stations will be kept for use on the
farm the coming season. American

BIRDS IN THE HOUSE.

Do not hang your bird merely
where his cage looks pretty Nor
must YOU fly to the other extreme, and
place him in glare of sunlight, even
in winter Birds suffer and die from
this cause The best way is to give
him his choice; put him III the sun
and shade part of his cage, so that
he may do as he likes You will no
ticc that he often sits in the shade
Remember and take care about
placing him in Il draft or too close to
even n closed window, except on
warm summer DAYS 1t Is as great
a mistake to put him where he will
be subject to the dry, burning heat of
a furnace or stove. Do not hang his
cage too high nor too low, but let
him breathe the pure air which you
breathe yourself.
From November till June wrap his
cage nightly in warm shawl, or
draw over 1t a thick flannel cover,
and never place the cage on the floor,
as | saw advised not long ago.
Your bird needs variety as well as
You, bird-store men and bird-book
writers to the contrary, notwith-
standing Give him every dav, be
sides his seed and fresh water, bit
of green food. lettuce. sorrel, chick
weed, plantain Cleaf or ends or a
slice of banana or apple, and fasten
the delicacy SO that it cannot fall TO
the floor. A dainty bird will not
touch it if it falls. Also, now and
then, perhaps three times a week,
give him a snip or two of raw beef
the size of pin head, larger if he is
hooking bird. He may look askance
at first. and turn his wise black ewes
upon it with curiosity, but he will

ABOUT SLATE PENCILS.

In the northwestern part of the
town of Castleton, Rutland county,
Vt, is the only mandatory of slate
pencils in the United States. The
slate rock, as it comes from the quar-
ry, is first sawed into blocks as wide
as the slate pencil is long. These
blocks are easily split into slabs a
little thicker than the finished pencil,
which is about five-sixteenths of an
inch. These are passed through
planning machine and over an emery
belt, which makes them even and
smooth. Next they are pushed into
the Jaws of machine called a ''croc
odile," which consists of Il pair of
steel plates, in the under one of
which are six rows of curved knives,
each being set SO as to cut a little
deeper than the preceding one. These
plough out parallel grooves half way
through the slab, which is then turn
ed and laid on a steel plate having
ridges which just fit these grooves.
This slides back under the six rows of
teeth of another Crocodile" which
cuts the grooves on the other side
and leaves the square pencils side by
side
They are then rounded and pointed
by holding them on an emery belt,
and one man can thus sharpen about
5000 a day
This factory makes 10000 pencils
daily and employs % hands. We
might wonder where so many pencils
90, but when we consider that there
are one or two million school boys
and girls, and many of them rather
careless, and that slate pencils are
easily broken, we have no doubt the
factory will have its hands full" to
supply the demand,
The old way Of making pencils was
to saw them out square from the
slab one by one. They were then
boxed and distributed among poor
families, who whitfield them round
by hand for about so cents a thou
sand.
Pencils are made from slate much
softer than the states upon which
they are used, and very nice pencils
are made from soapstone. = New
