HOME AND FARM.


.
When flatirons become rusty. black
them with stove-polish and rub well
with q dry brush.
More mutton and less pork should
be used on the farm. Mutton hams
can be smoked the same as those OF
the hog.
See that kitchen stoves have a
thorough cleaning inside and out every
two or three weeks. Many times stoves
are blamed for not drawing or baking
we'll when they are clogged up with
ashes.
Mushrooms In Batter: Make
quart of batter. Have some boiling
hot butter in frying-pan, but a large
spoonful of batter with n mushroom
in the center and drop in the butter to
fry.-Farm and Fireside.
Mustard is the nearest approach
to a universal cure-all. Few pains
will not give way before mustard
plaster, and wide range OF internal
innammations from colds and other
causes may be stopped by its timely
application. 1t is<the first and best
resort in threatened pneumonia or
congestion of the lungs or hard colds
on the chest.
Maple Sugar Cake: Break two
eggs in n cup and fill it with sweet
milk. Take one cup sugar, two table
spoons of butter, two cups OF flour,
two teaspoons of cream tartar and one
OF soda, or if baking powder is pre-
ferrcd two teaspoons OF baking pow
der. Bake in layers.
In a recent paper on tile drainage,
Prof. X. c. kedzie, of Michigan, said
that the rapidity with which drained
soil takes up the rain when it falls,
after dry spell, should not be over
looked A tiled field will take up and
strain one-fifth of an inch more rain
after dry spell than field destitute
of tile drainage.
Gather the hen manure as soon as
dry, say twice week, and put in bar
rels in dry place. In the spring,
compost one part manure with four
parts of loan; let it stand week, then
overhaul thoroughly, breaking up all
the Jumps; after standing another
week it will be ready for use. 1t may
be applied broadcast or in the hill, for
all crops; if in the hill, mix thorough
ly with the soil, to prevent its burning
the tender rootlets.
TlN Of al n1,t- two n re
the parts that require the most plant
food. Apples and pears have less seed
that most fruit in proportion to bulk,
hence they should be classed among
the least exhaustive to the soil. The
peach and plum have the largest
amount of seed and are more exhaust
i've. Raspberries. blackberries, straw
berries and grapes have larger pro-
portion of seeds than apples or pears,
hence are more exhaustive, but are not
excepting Strawberries and grapes)
to be compared with wheat or potatoes
as regards the amount OF plant food
required for their perfection.
Old hens and pullets should be
separated because the feeding suitable
for the one is unsuitable for the other
Old hens have made their growth, and
if to be kept over should be fed with
sparing hand, in order to prevent them
from becoming too fat. Excessive fat
ness leads to suspension of egg-pro-
.duction and predisposes TO certain
forms of disease. Pullets, on the other
hand, are growing and should be fed
literally in order to promote growth
and keep up their strength. There is
little danger of their becoming too fat

Stand by the Sheep.

Mr.. F. ID. Curtis says that hence
own legs, and these must be mutton
legs" thus sufficiently supported it
can not only take care OF itself, but
enrich the hilltops of the farmer, and
bless his table with the best of meat.
Those who have fiocks of pure McrinOs
should still keep their best blood and
sell where they can; but do not be
dazed or crazed with the expectation
of high prices. Do not sacrifice your
flocks, but cut them down to the best.
We should eat more lamb and mutton,
and it may be great blessing that it
is necessary to push this side OF the
sheep interest, which should result
in the rearing of better mutton,
more of it, and its presenta-
ton to the public in more attractive
forms, and everywhere. Now beef is
in the front, and the consumer sees
little else, unless in the time OF sau-
sages, when pigs divide the space, but
taking only small part. Mutton can
really be grown cheaper than any other
meat, rs the fleece will go far to make
up the cost of raising. No animal will
grow faster in proportion to the food
consumed than a lamb. The per cent.
of gains as TO cost is the highest Here
is good basis for the skill of the
breeder. The word skill is the key to
the whole thing. One man will grasp
it and win, and another will not work
up to it, and he will fail. Begin with
few and enlarge as your skill is de-
veloped. Keep some sheep anyhow

Too much grain is more detri-
mental to breeding stock than NOT
enough. The food should be bulky
with a small allowance Of grain.
A dairy writer says that IL COW
Just pays for her feed in milk and but
ter she is kept at loss, and that TINS
loss is greater with every succeeding
year
Horses and oxen should be fed
upon d fair maintenance and not al
lowed To run down Those which are
quite idle will do we'll on hay alone,
but all animals kept at work should
have moderate feeds OF grain.
A daily growth in swine of little
more than a pound is more profitable
than less or more. This daily growth
increases with age until the maturing
period is nearly reached. -American
Agriculturist.
Plants require their food in solu-
BILE condition. No matter how much
manure is added to the soil, only the
soluble portions are used. The solids
can not be of benefit until they de.
compose and are dissolved by the
moisture.
Poultry need o good. dry busting
place. They like it better on level
with the floor OF the poultry-house
than to climb into box. Over-feed-
ing or keeping on corn and other fat
tening food is quite as frequent cause
for hens failing TO lay as lack OF food.
DO roots and tubers Qrish p0ta-
toes, sweet potatoes, yams, artichokes,
etc. } incr ease in the ground after the
vines are dead? is question which is
exciting considerable interest among
farmers in all sections of the country.
There is Il popular belief that if the
tubers are left in the ground till
spring, they will continue to grow In
size all winter; but the question has
not been satisfactorily tested.
Bees will come out of their hives
on warm days. In so doing they clean
the hives and carry out the dead bees.
Every day some of the bees die, and
advantage is taken of all favorable OPP
portunities by the survivors to put the
hive in the best condition for winter.
The hives should not be placed in per-
manent winter quarters until the
weather becomes cold.

Another damage suit was filed in the
United States district court yesterday
against the steamer st. Nicholas or rather
an Intervention to the original bill of the
complainants, Henry j. Jones ct al, libel
ants of the Inflated steamer.
The intervenors are Cain Wynn, husband
of the late Martha Wynn. and Cain WYNN
as the next friend of their children, Joseph,
Richard, Liza and Adam Wynn. The in
tervenors ask for s., 600 damages.
The suit is brought by A. Il. MacDonell.

same claim of unskillful management of the
vessel by the master is made, as accounting
for the collision with the st. Augustine
creek bridge, as is set up by the original

which caused the fatal injuries to
the wife and mother are particularly
described The intervention alleges
that the collision of the st. Nicholas with
the bridge carried away all the forward
part of the saloon and hurricane decks,

says that at the time OF his wife's death she
was about 50 years old, and in good health
and capable of elrning from IS to $50 per
month as a laundry woman, and of earning
from S. to $40 per month as house servant;
that the minor interyenors we're dependent

A MAIL BOX FOR THE "sHooFLY.'
An Accommodation for the Merchants
along the Central.

An Accommodations for the Merchants
Along the Central
The proposition to add a mail box TO the
Central ''shoohy" train meets with favor.
A merchant at Ogeechee. in referring to
the matter, said yesterday that lie was glad
to see the MORNING NEWS had suggested it,
as the present mail facilities do not meet
the requirements of the country merchants
from Millen to Savannah, a distance of
sevepty-nine miles. They have only one
mail a day, and goods now ordered by mail
one day cannot be received until the next
day, when if they were given a morning
mail on the "shoohy" train orders from
country merchants would be filled and
shipped on the same day.
1t is understood that the wholesale mer-
chants of this city will take the matter in
hand and unite in petition TO the Post
master General for increased mail facilities
by putting an agent on the "Shoohy" train,
or if that cannot be accomplished then a
United States mail box will be asked for
which would he some improvement over the
present one mail a day system. S. Quicken
heimer, one of the largest wholesale mer-
chants in Savannah, said yesterday that
some action ought to he taken at once to
facilitate the mail communications with
the out of town trade on the line of the
Central, and he will unite in whatever
measures are deemed proper to take.

TIE NEED OF MORE POLICE.
Protection Needed for the Southern
Section of the City.

Section of the City.
The police are keeping a close watch
for boys who carry what is known as the
alabama sling" and a white boy and a
colored boy were before the mayor yester4
day morning. and were fined s. or ten days
each. The arrest Of the white boy was
made at West Broad and Sims street by
Mounted Policeman McQuade yesterday
morning.
A gentleman who witnessed the arrest
said the ordinance ought to be rigidly
enforced, and every boy seen using these
sings arrested aud punished, but 1t was
somewhat strange lat a much more dan
gerOus weapon is used in that section of the
city patroled by the mounted men, revolvers
being fired off day and night. and the
officers seem to be unable to apprehend the
marauders
In discussing this condition of affairs with
the mayor and MORNING NEWS reporter,
Alderman Harris said that the city should
have not less than twenty-five more police
men, so that a very large portion OF the
city now but partially protected and some
OF 1t not patroied at all, should have night
watchmen to break up the indiscriminate
firing Of weapons and to better secure the
property of the citizens.
The city has grown so rapidly in the past
two years, spreading eastward, westward
and to the southwark, that it Is confronted
with demands for sewerage, water, lights
and police protection beyond the ability of
the means at hand to supply the demand,
but the council real zes the necessities of the
newly built up territory, aud cannot well
overlook them. The preliminary arrange
ments have been agreed upon for an IN
creased water aud light supply, and sewer
age and increased police protection is
expected to follow.
