The Pestiferous Grass Bird.

There is little bird, common about
the fields and gardens, that is q worst
pest than the sparrow, crow and black,
bird combined. 1t is commonly called
the grass bird. 1t is dark brown or
dun color on the back, with a white
breast and belly. 1t eats clover ana
grass seed, and those farmers who sow
these seeds on the ground without cover
ing them will look in vain for the young
plants. These small birds come in tocks
of sometimes hundred or hundreds,
and lighting on the fields are unnoticed;
while each one will pick up the SEED
from a square yard of ground It Is
easily calculated how soon q hundred OF
these birds will clear an acre OF land OF
seeds; forty.eight visits will do 1t with
out leaving one seed. No wonder there
arc moor catches of seed, especially OF
timothy, sown in the fall, when these
nests have whole winter to work IN OF
swarm on the ground in the spring. The
only safety from this loss is to cover the
seed by the harrow aud put it safe in
the ground, where it ought to be put ny
every good farmer. If these birds are
needed to teach farmers a good lesson,
that grass and clover seed should be
sown in the most careful manner anu not
scattered upon the snow or the bale haro
surface of the ground, they will not nave
lived in yain.-MeD York Times.

Cabbage DeliciousIy Cooked.

Cabbage when nicely cooked with a
white sauce, is vegetable fit for any
body. Dumas the elder, was specially
fond of it, and he has invented way of
cooking it that is said to be specially de-
licious. Directions for cooking cabbage
so that all the world and his neighbor
will not know what you are going to
have for dinner, have been given re-
peatedly, but they may be given once
more. Cut the cabbage in quarters and
wash it in luke-warm water, then plunge
it into cold water and let it remain for a
half hour. Then take it out and put it
into the tolan Ter to drain. Now put
down the pot, and when the water is
boiling very fast add tcaspoonful OF
salt, and heaping saltspoonful Of salt,
and hcaping saltspoonful of baking
soda; then put in the cabbage, leave the
pot uncovered, pull out the damper.
After the cabbage has boiled hard for
twenty-five minutes, take it up drain it,
put it in the dish in VIII; ;ch you are going
to serve it. pour over it white sauce and
it is ready for the table.-BrooA5n Ct.i-

Street Car Horses.

The employment of horses on so many
street railroads is q great waste OF ami
NAL ma. erial required in other helds,
and involves a necessary cruelty to the
horses Yet it is surprising how oc-
casionally horse will adapt himself to
this spawning kind of occupation. A
driver recently called my attention
on the Thirty,fourth street line, IN
New York city, says Gath, In the yin,
cinnati En- uirtr, to horse in good
condition, which had been employed by
the companv, and he told me that on
the Twcnty-third street Cross.toWn
line was horse which had been between
nineteen and twenty years IN the service.
The existence of the large stables tor
these horses in the centre OF the city,
with their outfit of hay aud fodder, and
manure, is a cause of danger, and in
time ali our horse-railroad stables nave
one after another been destroyed by hre,
causing destruction of adjacent property
and the roasting of cavalry regiments OF
horses. During the tic.up in the latter
part of January the elevated railways
worked with ali their might, and large
proportion of the operating and business
peoplc felt no concern about the street
car car lines, but inval:ds. women, the
uptown stores and the physicians
showed their annoyance, and the loss OF
occupation, and therefore OF value, was
q matter of loud complaint.

A New Material.

A new, delicate and durable materia'
for fancy work is sheet celluloid. 1t ii
of a soft creamy white tint, with fint
granting which makes it resemble ivory
It is used in combination with plush,
velvet or satin, whenever it is possible
for a panel of any shape to be used
The edges are finely scalloped or per
forated with small tool made for this
purpose, and the panel is then fastened
IN place by tiny stitches or, more fre.
quently, by small ribbon bows passed
through the perforations. These panels,
unless they are very small, are always
painted, and the delicate material makes
q very effective background for floral
designs of all kinds.
All manner of fancy goods, of which
the outside is made of plush with deco
rated celluloid panels, and the lining of
satin, command price largely IN excess
of the cost. Any lady who can paint
flowers can make this article. The Gel.
luloid comes in quite large sheets, and
has lining of linen or muslin to make
it durable. 1t harmonihes with any
color, aud is therefore adapted TO many
purposes. s.-HouehoI Pilot.

A New Mineral.

A new mineral has been discovered
named Spcrrsite, in honor of the man
who found it, Francis L. Sperry, OF sud
bury, ntario, chemist to the Canadian
Gopher Company of that place. 1t is es.
scntially an arsenide of platinum and OF
great interest, since platinum has not
been found before as an important con-
stituent of any material except the alloys
with other metals of the platinum group.
The mineral was found atthe Fermilllon
mine, in the district of Algoma, province
of Ontario, pls; twenty-five miles west
of Sudbury aaastwenty.Gour miles north
of Georgian Bay. on the line OF the Al
goma branch of the Canadian Paclhc
hallway. The mine was dis overed IN
October, 1887, and a three-stamp mill
was put up for the purpose Of stamp
ing gold quartz. Associated with tins
gold ore are considerable quantities OF
pyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrhotIte, ana
at the contact of ore and rock, and occu;
pying small pockets in decompoScd!
masses of the ore, there is a quantity OF
loose material composed. OF gravel
containing PARTICLES of copper and
iron pyrites. 1t was in milling this loose
material that several ounces Of the arsen-
ide of platinum were gathered on the
carpet connected with the stamp MILL

In q Bath for q Year.

A unique remedy for eczema and {,
other cutaneous diseases is Hebra's
water-bed, or rather, to define it accur-
atey, continual bath. The patient llves
entirely in his bath, eats, drinks and
s'eeps there till he is well. One patient
was kept in such bath for 3s5 days;
Think of thisl More than o year OF
washing day! 1t is enough to make
anyone hate the sight Of water forever.
There is o slight danger of the patient
Slipping under water in his sleep ana
drowning; but it is usual to pass band
age under his arms and fasten it, so as to
support the upper part Of the body on
the inclined part of the bath, on which
the head rests. The palms and soles be-
come white and shriyeled like washer
woman's hands, but the skin OF other
parts of the body does not suffer, and
the treatment is said to be very ethca,
cious in severe burns. When the patient
first gets into the bed the temperature is
eighty six degrees, but as he gets used
to it it is raised by degrees to ninety
eight degrees. London Ho,pital. =.

Hints on Seasoning Meats.

Some housekeepers think seasoning
food is the easiest part of preparing o
dish, and they hastily, throw in lump
of salt and a pinch of pepper withou'
thinking of the amount. Another will
use too much seasoning, because somt
one has told her that the best French
cooks season their food highly, and he,
soup, stew, or whatever it may be, imi-
tates French cookery only as far as salt
and pepper 60, and finds itself rejected.
Salt was never intended to disguise the
taste of anything, but to tone down the
flavor or to increase it. In my opinion,
the most particular part of cooking is
the seasoning and faToring. 1t is worth
remembering that meats that are to. be
served cold will bear more seasoning
than those intended to be er,ed hot.
Beefsteak should not be seasoned while
cooking, but just before serving. Veal
may be seasoned while cooking, or if
you have outlets to be prepared "a Ia
fried oysters" the seasoning should be
done before dipping in the egg. In
roasting meat, do not put salt and pep.
per on the meat, but put it in the pan
with the water and baste the meat occa-
sionally with it. By so doing, you will
find the meat to be we'll seasoned and
more juicy than by sailing the meat
before cooking.-Prairis Farmer.

AGRICULTURAL.
TOPICS OFINTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
Blowing Out Stumps.

My plan is to bore an inch and half
auger hole in about the center root, a
little below the level of the ground.
Put the primer tight in the fuse. In
fold the dynamite cartridge, insert the
primer, fold the paper back and tie it
with string. Put the cartridge in the
auger hole, we'll under the stump, and
tamp with dirt, lightly at first and after
ward with a wooden hammer, cut off the
fuse, fire it and get we'll back out of the
way. Old stumps can be blown clear
out, but green ones will be burst into
pieces, which you wi have to burn or
grub out. For small stumps half
cartridge is sufficient and primers apart.
Use 1t in warm weather, as it freezes at
forty degrees Fahrenheit. and thea is OF
no use.-Netc Iort Herald.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
Modern Baking Methods,

Only in rare cases are soda and cream
tartar used nowadays. Baking powder
ls far more even and certain in its effects
and results. 1t seems almost unneces-
sary to urge the importance of getting
the best of all materials for cooking. The
best butter-no cooking butter" for
those who look for perfect success in
cooking. The best grade of flour, the
best of everything, for the best is the
cheapest. and then the cake will be salts
factory: if not, it is not the fault of the
materials. When lemon juice and acid
is used, as in lemon cake, carbonate of
soda, an alkali, only is used.-Ne~ Vork

A Very Ancient Autograph.

In Europe one of The most ancient au-
tographs preserved in public museum
is at the Louvre. 1t is an Egyptian
papyrus, in which one Serpamonthet
writes to Pamouthes, his brother, tina,
he has sent by canal boat the property
of Thalcs. son of Jerax, the body OF
senvris, his mother. "she is embalmed,
adds the pious son; 80 ticket hangs
round her neck; her carriage is paid
her name is Inscribed upon her stomach,
and I wish thee, oh, my brother, health
and prosperity. !" Fortunately, no one
has ever tried to steal this matchleSs au-

Veal Farming.

From observation, writes Galen Wilson
in the New York Iribune, l am decidedly
of opiolon that more money can be made
and more easily by devoting cow to
fatting calves than by milking and max
ing either butter or cheese. I know a
case where a person realized $50 in a
season from one cow. Whether q cow
shall be compelled to sucllle two calves
at time or only one depends altogether
upon whether she has milk sufficient for
two. If she has it, it is certainly ad :
vlsab.e. In regard to the question
whether the milk should first be drawn
and then fed to the calf or the calf be
allowed to draw it, the latter course
seems the better, because it is natures
way, but the sub.,e t is of such nature
that it is not susceptible of proof. The
objection to the practice urged by some,
that it makes the cows teats sore after
awhile, amounts to not much, for an
ointment made of the bark of the root
of bittersweet simmered in fresh lard
will prevent or remedy this, if rubbed
on occasionally.
Another objection, that it is difficult to
make a cow mother any calf but her own.
falls to the ground. Two or three days
before the calf is to be taken away
fasten blanket around it. After the
calf is gone and her udder fills again
and she becomes uneasy, put the blanket
on the new calf and trot it in to her.
She will sniff awhile, and finally con-
clude that it is her own calf, and gently
settle down to business. The oh. ecton
urged that time would have to be spent
hunting up new calves also fails, for the
veal farmer can do as lady friend does
let the local butcher who takes the fat
calf away bring a new one in its place.
Country butchers always know where to
get young calf for nominal sum.
have observed that veal farming does not
in urc the cow for the next years milk
ing. This system eXhansts the soil less,
because the most valuable part of the
milk is retained in the manure of the
calf, while in the other case it goes of
with the milk. In point of manual labor
veal farming possesses great adVan
tage.

Posts and Rails.

The weakest board or rail determines
the strength of the fence.
Land in a square can be inclosed with
less fence than an equal area in any other
form bounded by straight lines.
The animals will certainly find the
weak spots; but it is bad policy to have
them show you where those spots are.
The width of the fence row is large
item in the cost of fencing; even more
important is what the fence row grows.
Crops would suffer less from many a
noxious insect or animal and its progeny,
were it not for the shelter of the hedge,
or of the rubbish in the fence row.
As the posts are the foundation of the
fence, unless they are deeply and soldly
set, good material and fine workmanship
in the superstructure count for little.
Where the law is founded on the good
sense to re ,uire man to restrain only his
own animals, instead of all the worlds
from his fields, much less fencing is re-
quired.
As fencing is one of the most considera-
BILE items of the farm expense, tits fruit.
full economy to make the fields of that
size and shape which will require least
fencing
AS the length of the field is increased
at the expense of its breadth, more fence
is required; but for this there may be
compensation in the greater ea>e of cul-
tivation.-American .a0ricuiturist.

If YOU live too far from the mill to ge

corn to feed to the chicks.
Ten acres of corn put into silo viii
keep as many cattle as forty acres
treated in the ordinary way.
Ducks can be hatched at any time
during the year, but much better growth

early.
On very cold nights large fock will
be more comfortable than small one, as
there will be more warmth in the poultry
house.
If you are crowding the hogs with "a
heavy corn ration, be sure they have
full and free suppy Of charcoal, ashe!
and salt.
The great source of contagion is the
drinking water. a sick fowl should
never be allowed to drink from the same
vessel as Others.
Don't keep the sows you are going tc
breed and the hogs you are fattening in
the same pen. They need different feed
to do their best.

The production of lambs for market

There is precious little money, says al
exchange, in five or six months milking
or creamery management, and the soone
the farmers find it out the better for thei
pockets.
In view of the fact that cream from
fresh COWS improves the color anc
freshens the flavor of butter, it would
seem to be advisable to have the COWS
come in at different times during the
year.
There is sometimes difficulty in get,
ting the butter to float in mass on tol
