Agricultural Success.

Probably the first thing that will occur
TO almnot ever farmer who considers the
failure he has made, and the obstacles he
must encounter in the future, is that he
must work harder than he has been in the
habit of dong. That labor ia essential to
successful farming is clear to every one.
Bot 1t does not follow that merely in
orr 4siuR the quantity OF labor will insure
a higher degree of success. | believe that
the great majority farmers work too hard
already, and that instead OF trying TO do
more than they have done in any previous
year hey should resolve 60 diminish the
time spent in the fields. II they work
less they will have time to think more,
aud will be able TO plan their work to
much better advantage than they can If
they toll in the fields from daylight TO
dark
Il is easy 20 see tina, the more wisely
the plans are laid the greater will be the
degree ut success attending their exeeu-
tiou. IL Is also plain that if but little
time Is gwen to careful thought and con
sheraton OF the business the plans will
not be perfect. Many things will be
overlooked until Il il too late To attend 20
them, and many pieces of work will be
done at disadvantage for want OF a lit
tie time spent in thinking how TO perform
them in the beat manner.
Too many farmers work In the field I'M
tai H. j. Too late. or they are too tired TO
work any longer, and then, when they
need rest, give that strength they have
left TO planning their business. There
are others who do their work OF this kind
while toiling in the field But no Que oan
think to she besC advantage when tired,
or been working hard with the hands.
The method should be changed. Before
the body is wearied with labor time
should be taken to think how the work
can be most profitable directed.
II any one Is disposed TO consider this
a plea for ease or Incidence let him re-
member that brain work is far more ex
hausting than physical toll The change
is not advocated merely 70 save labor,
but to make labor rlore profitable, The
mind is far superior TO the hand, and the
extent to winch it is used, in farming or
amy other line OF bueiness will very ac-
ourately Indicate the degree OF success
which will be secured.

RUSSIAN PRISONERS.
Disagrreablentss Of Life in the Convict
Mines a. Kara

Mines AZ Kara
The follpwing is from George Ken
mans article IN the June Century on The
Convict NJ mes OF Kara" Hard labor
convicts al Kara receive a dali ration
consisting OF three pounds of BLACK rye
bread about four ounces OF meat, in
GLIDING the bonei a small quantity of
barley, which Is generally put into the
water IN which the meat is boiled for the
purpose of making soup; and little
brick tea Occasionally they have pota
toes or a few leaves of cabbage; but such
luxuries are boughs with money mads by
extra work, or saved by petty economics
in other ways. This ration seemed 10
me ample III guam 'ity, but lacking in var
lety and very deficient IN vegetables. The
bread which / tasted was perhaps rs
good as that ca en by Russian peasants
generally; but 1t was very moist and
sticky, and pieces taken from the center
of the loaf could be rolled back into
dough in ones hands. The meat, which
| saw weighed out to oonviots after II
had been boiled and cut up into pieces
about as large as dice, did not have an
inviting appearance, and suggested TO my
mind small refuse scrap intended for
soap grease.
"fbe daily meals OF the oonvicts we're
arranged a. follows; In the morning
after the roll call or 'verihcauon,' break
fast consisting OF brick tea aud brick
rye-bresd, was served to the prisoners in
their cells The working parties then
set out on foot Tor the gold piaeers, car
rying with them bread and tea for lunch.
- a
air beside camp fire, regardless Of
weather, and sometimes in fierce winter
storms. Late in tue afternoon the con
vets returned on foot TO their cells and
ate on their sleeping platforms the first
hearty and nourishing meal OF the day,
consisting OF hot soup, meat, bread, and
perhaps q little more brick tea. After
the evening yerification they were locked
up for the night and lay down TO sleep in
closely packed rows on the mares or
sleeping benches, without removing their
clothing and without making any prepa.
ration for the night beyond bringing IL
the parashaH,' or excrement buckets,
spreading down their thin patchwork
crazy quilts, and rolling up some OF their
spare clothing TO put under their heads.
"The clothing furnished to hard la
Dor convict at Kara oonsists-or should,
by law, oonsist-of one coPrse linen shirt
aud ono pair of linen trousers every ak
months one cap, one pair of thick
trousers, and one gray oyercoat every
year; 'polushuba (pol-oo.shoo bal, or
outer coat of sheepgkin, every two years;
one pair Of 'brodnias' (brode-ne"-yae),
or loose leather boo 3, every three and a
half months in winter; and pair of
'kati' (kot-tee) or low shoes, every
twenty two days in summer. The quail
ity OF the food and clothing furnished by
the government may be inferred from
the fact that the cost OF maintaining a
hard labor convict at the mines is about
$50 for year or little less than IA
cents day.

ed all the time with the brine, for here is
where the secret lies, in not allowing the
air 10 come in contact with the butter
after packing. Butter requires to be
salted in the usual way, one ounce TO the
pound, before packing for the reason
that brine will not penetrate butter
when pressed ia solid mass. Butter
packed in this way will keep fresh and
sweet for months. Last season | put

Hearts, Not Homes
Washington Post.

"rhere is no place like home.n That's
true, but home Is something more than
a house. 4 house you own, pay rent for,
or occupy on mortgage. The stan lard
writer of the day abuses boarding houses,
and attributes half of the divorces and
most uuhappiuess TO that mode of life.
Every phase of civilized life has its com
pensatious. The hotnes of separate
house adds cares manifold, but also pri-
y8cy. The boarding house gives ease aud
cl.sades Others into your home lite. A
separate house permits hospitality TO
ones friends, boarding houses avoid that
expense. In his own house a man some
umss grows aulI; in boardmg-hOuse his
wife may find too much society, la ones
own house there are the disallusion of
kitchen routlue, servant yexstiOns, frozen
water pipes and exorbttaut gas bills.
In the boarding house are impOrtunate
laudladies, other peoples children, pos.
sibly water bugs, and sticky H. paper.
A separate house ia not home unless it
contains loving, courteous veil bred pso-
pie, The shabbiest boarding house ON
earth is a home, where hearts are fond
and heads are clear.

Packing Butter for transportation.

noticed an article in Canadian pm
per stating that Canadian merchant
had shipped consignment of butter to
China, via the Canada Pacific railroad.
The article went on to say that this was
the fret lot Of butter that had been shi-
ped to China, and that the venture had
proved q financial suocess, bat that the
model or manuer Of packing the butter
was a secret. Now, what il 10 hinder
some OF our American butter dealers
from trying the same thingf There il q
market in this country, appare ntly, that
would take all our surplus butter. The
United snates sends hundreds Of thou
sands Of hard dollars yearly to China 70
pas for the tea we buy from them. Why
not exchange butter for their teal The
United States sends large quantities OF
butter to England, where we come in di-
rect com petition with the older countries
Of France, Belgium, Germany, Holland,
Norway and Sweden, and we generally
come Of second best in that market. But
in China, once get the market establish
ed, We would have little competition. As
10 the secret manner OF packing the bat
ter TO ship TO China or any ether for
eign market, here Il is: Take new
pork barrels. FIJI them with clean wat
en-, let them stand four or five days and
change the water once during the time.
This serves two purposes. The water
takes away the wood smell, also soaks
into the barrel and preventa the danger
OF the brine soaking into the wood and
leaving some portion OF the butter bare,
which would cause it to become strong
and rancid. Make brine by boiling
that will doat 80 egg let Il stand to cool
and settle before using Make the bot
ter into rolls that will tit into the tarrel
So az not TO leave too much vacant space.

Winter RnIlt IInuses.

The singular fact il mentioned that
while in @ eat Britain building opera
tions are suspended on the slightest ap-
proaoh Of frost, bricklaying is carried on
in Norway during almost the coolest
weather that prevails for any time. Thus,
in Christiana, building during the winter
months, it is stated, has nov been prao
ticed for at least twelve years, but more
frequently during the last five, all the
buildings thus erected having stood re
markably well. Experience has not shown
that walls built in winter exhibit subse
duently more dampneHs than those erect
ed in summer. The reverse may be the
case, since the difference between the
temperature Of the air aud Of the mortar
cools the latter by evaporation and takes
away great part OF the moisture. Ao-
oording to the opinion of the princi pal
builders in ChristiaDa, orioklayers york,
executed with due car e in winter, IL really
superior to similar work done in summer
the whole art of such work 10 frosty
weather consisting simply in the use OF
unslacked lime, the mortar prepared with
which is TO be made in small quantities
Immediately before use, the proportion
of lime being increased a. the thermom
eter falls. The only care required Il to
utilize the unslacked lime 30 handily aud
quickly "a to enable the mortar 70 blend
With the bricks before it Goods. Another
very important condition Il that the
bricks be always kept covered on the
building site.
