Of the missing diamonds Is cleared up
by the gossps who positively assert that Mann

story that Mrs Hamilton will be brought to

her assault on Mrs. DOnnclly

She Has Something to Show for Her Six
Years Labors.
Miss Lizzie Duflield, who has spent
the last six years in South Dakota, was
among the first young ladies to brave
the hardships of claim life and take up
land in Dakota, and she is now the
fortunate owner of 800 acres of excel
lent farm land, half of which is short
distance from Harold. Hyde County.
The other quarter section is near the
thriving town of Fulkton. and all of
which will certainly be valuable prop
erty in time. All the adventures oflife
far out upon the prairie, with the near
est neighbor mile and half distant,
the perils in storm and flood, and the
danger of living alone for weeks at q
time, have been undergone. She was
one of those brave and resclute Dakota
school teachers who, with few pupils
under her care encountered the awful
storm of January, 1888. During the
long night which followed the dread.
full blizzard, with scant fuel, she kept
herself and the children from freezing
only by the utmost exertion, until all
were rescued from their fearful situa.
tion at 5 o'clock the next morning. Miss
Duffield has gained an enviable reputa.
tion as teacher Chicago Journal.

FARM AND FiRESIDE,


--One of the best things in well
regulated farmhouse, is bathroom
always supplied with clean, tepid
water and accessible at all hours.
Calves should have some kind OF
shade during the middle of the day. II
exposed to the heat OF the sun too long
they become liable to bowel disease.
1t is suggested that the posts to
which harbed wire is fastened for
fencing, be painted white. as they will
then be better observed by cattle.
Pieces of tin, painted white and fas-
tened along the line of the wire, have
also been recommended us a safeguard
against injury.
Corn and Oatmeal Cake: One cup
of oatmeal mush, well cooked (cold) ;
one cup of cream meal, raw; one egg,
a pinch Of salt, one teaspoonful of
sugar, the same of yeast powder, suf-
ficient water to make suitable batter
to fry in small, thin cakes in hot lard.
The Housewife.
The barnyard. as a source OF fer
tility, is commended as the safest of
any that we have TO deal with. We
have nothing to lose and every thing
to gain by managing it properly. This
is confirmed by the verdict of some OF
the foremost agriculturists of the Mid
die States.
If care is taken to cure the pota-
toes well and TO store where they arc
certain to keep dry there is less risk of
damage than if they are left in the
ground. But if they are dug and are
piled up without curing, or if piled
where there will be more or less water
to drip down on them, the better plan
will be to let them stay in the ground
until cooler.
Cucumber Salad: Two young Gu
cumbers, half teaspoonful of salt, quar-
ter teaspoonful of black pepper, four
tablespoonfuls of vinegar. Pare and
slice the cucumbers very thin, soak
them in cold water one hour, then
drain and dry. Put them in the salad
bowl, sprinkle them with the salt and
pepper. and pour over the vinegar.
Serve Immediately.
Picked Grapes: Take grapes fresh
picked and take them off the stems
carefully and put in jar. To six
pounds of grapes use one quart OF
vinegar, three and one-half pounds of
sugar, little cinnamon bark and Il
few whole cloves. Boil together ten
minutes and cool SO it is lukewarm;
then pour over the grapes. put plate
over them and tie up securely. Do not
cook the grapes at all. They will keep
long time. Good Housekeeping.
The farmer who breakfasts on
fried pork, who eats pork and potatoes
for dinner and more of the same sort
for supper in the summer, should not
find fault when he discovers himself to
be i'll. His table should abound with
berries and fine vegetables. He owes
it to himself and to his family to see
that it is thus supplied. We are glad
to know that the number of farmers
who neglect this duty is steadily
but there are still enough
to make this admonition
