Moulting hens should be given feed
ing of linseed meal two or three times
a week. II fed exclusively on corn or
wheat the hens will become debilitated,
and droop. A mess of chopped meat
occasionally is also excellent.
A large flock Of hens do not thrive as
we'll as a smaller flock owing to crowd
ing and competition. The scraps from
the table amount to but little when
given to large focks, but for few
hens they are OF advantage and greatly
reduce the cost.
The seed of sorghum makes good feed
for chickens in winter. In some places
where it is grown largely it is pre-
ferred for this use TO corn. Ripening
the seed sufficiently to save it rather
increases the product OF sweet. thus

A weaned colt should be put in
training as soon us it is taken from the
barn, which should be when it is or
8 months old, says the Fort Worth
(TeX.) Gazette. II the mare has been
we'll fed while rearing the colt she will
not suffer in the least from this period
OF milking, but the colt will gam very
much by it. Before weaving the colt
should be used to the halter and tied in
Il seperate stall when in the stable, to
which it should be brought occasional
ly, even while in pasture. Here some
bran and crushed oats should be given,
and when weaned the ration should be
increased from two qurrts n day to
four quarts (Which will be quite safe
for the growing animaD of this food,
but no corn should given until the
winter, when a pint to quart may be
added TO the feed. Then the real train
ing should begin. The colt should be
led by the halter first; then after it has
been taught TO lead well, bride with
a smooth bit should be used, and after
this has become familiar harness
made for the purpose should be put on
it, and the colt taught to draw IL light
cart or sled. Gradually it may be used
to Il saddle and to being ridden by u
small boy Of light weight. During all
this time the colt should be tanned and
made docile by constant handling and
feeding from tho hand a little grain,
salt or sugar, so that it will come when
called and evince no fear of the owner.
a horse thus trained will never be vic
ious nor troublesome unless spoiled

Coal In the Northwest.

In the Canadian northwest there are
immense coal fields. The oal-bearing
area is estimated at $1,000 square
miles, and the quantity Of fuel under
lying at $500, 900 to 5000, 600 tons per
square mile. There is Ignite in the
Souris country in Manitoba, not far
from the United States boundary.
Farther west the true bituminous is
struck at the Gait mines, near the
Rockies and near the United States
line. All along the Canadian Pacific
railway there Is more or less coal, but
the outcrop is particularly noticeable
as the Rocky Mountains ara approach
ed from the east. All this coal sup
piled to the Canadian Pacific at Bran
don and points west is exclusively the
product OF Cauanda. AS already stat
ed, anthracite is found in unlimited
quantity in the heart OF the Rockies,
and this coal field is SO much nearer
California, Oregon, Washington Terri
tory, ETC., than any United States
anthracite coal field, the chances are
in favor of its proprietors finding an
unlimited demand among the millions
Gu the Pacific coast. When Vancouver
Island is reached, here is another coal
field Of unlimited extent

Jeannie'S Bonnie Dream.

They sat together on the warm, spark
ling sand, the mother and the child.
The tiny golden head nestled against
the protecting breast; the wan face was
lit by the evening sun; the eyes were
closed, and a smile parted the bloodless
lips. The maiden slept.
The mother watched beside her
sleeping child, and she-scarce more
than child herself-murmured a
mothers prayer. Lord Jesus, save my
little girl" Again and again she re-
peatod it, "Save my little girl" That
was all.
OGod! why are the poor born to DO
so unhappy?
Softly she drew the threadbare tar
tan shawl softly round the slender
frame. Gentle as was the motion it
reused the sleeper The great blue
eyes opened.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Crude petroleum ON the Farm.

have not used linseed oil for oiling
farm implements, but have used
crude petroleum, and think it pays
well, says writer in the Rural. /
l have just finished oiling not only the
rims, but the entire woodwork of q
two-horse farm wagon. 1t is as
tonishing how much oil the rims will
absorb in a hot, dry time. As fast as
the brush is drawn over tho surface
the oil disappears, and when piece
of sappy wood is met with it takes up
oil like sponge. l think linseed
oil better than petroleum, but the ex-
pense is too great to use it as freely as
it ought to be used. 1t is no use adj
vising farmers to pay Coo or zoe per
gallon for linseed oil and soak the
wood work OF their wagons and imple-
ments with it; when they see the Oil
going into the wood SO rapidly they
will stay their hands and say: BE
hold, that is quite enough" long be-
fore the wood is filled. You can't do
first-class job when you are all the
time trying to save in the materials; If
you are repairing a fence ard put in
one nail where two are needed. or try
to make one rail serve for two; one
TOAD OF manure instead OF three,
or one pint of oil where two quarts are
required. If farmer buy barrel Of
crude petroleum and use it freely on
his implements he will save its cost
every year-provided he is what is
called an average" farmer whose
tool shed is co-eXtensive with his
farm.
Crude petroleum is easily applied
and cheap; mine cost SIC per gallon
md it will penetrate wood deeper than
the heavier linseed oil; its us es on the
farm are almost numberless. 1t can be
used in the henhOuse TO kill lice; on
pigs and other animals for the same
purpose; on dogs to kill fca5; on pillow
moldboards to keep them from ruSting;
on gate hinges to prevent wear and
squeaking; on roofs to prevent decay;
on siding to precede and save paint
and on any kind of exposed woodwork,
1t is always ready for use, and its
cheapness will cause it to be used
where more expensive oil or a paint
would not be. | believe if the rims of
wagon wheels are kept filled with crude
petroleum they will never decay, and
the tires will not need setting nearly
so often.

Milk for Cheese,

A COW that gives a large mess of
fairly rich milk, as to solids, may be
u good cheese COW, but not worth much
for butter; or, she may give milk rich
in butter fat, but in globules SO small
that they do not separate freely and
perfectly from the milk, and be good
cheese COW, or producer Of milk for
market, but be Improbable for butter
making. The market does not demand
very rich cheese. that containing % TO
80 per cent. OF fat bringing about as
much as that containing 40 per cent,
and hence it is not profitable to make
very rich milk into cheese. But it is
desirable to retain in the cheese all
the fat there is in the milk. For this
reason milk for cheese making needs
TO be handled very differently from
milk for butter making. For the
latter, you cannot strain the milk too
soon nor too warm from the COW and
set it for Dreaming. But for cheese
making, you cannot stir and air
milk too much in clean atmosphere,
nor cool it too soon.

phalt Pavement. (;
An extremely tall man, whose promi-
nent characteristics seemed to be
pair Of ears, No. IA boots, and bald
head, wandered uncertainty out OF the
Willard the other evening, says the
Washington Post, and started down
Pennsylvania avenue. His walk was
listless and his long legs wobbled. He
inspected Franklin's statue and
criticised it audibly for several min.

toward the capitol. Al ninth street a
gang Of laborers were busy putting
down new coat OF macadam pave.
ment and the huge rolling
was getting in its work. The tall
mar became interested. He smiled
happily at the passors-by and gave
his undivided attention to the busy
scene before him. 1t was near closing
time, and presently the laborers laid
aside their tools and prepared to quit
work. The roller was covered in an
oil-cloth suit and the workers left tho
street.
Funniest thing I ever saw" re-
marked the tall man aloud. whats
the fare?"
The question was directed to a little
negro boy who was DOMINIC ragged
coat.
swat fareP" he inquired.
''How much do they charged"
"Waffo?'
tTo ride on the masheen."
The little negro looked the man
over carefully, placed his hand in his
trousers pocket and strolled away
whistling sweetly the inspiring strains
OF .Razzle- Dazzle"
The man looked after him moment
In scornful silence, and then walked in
n doubtful. uncertain kind OF way out
onto the new-made pavement. He took
two steps and stopped. His features
expressed surprise at first and then
amazement, and then the two combin-
ed. with a little disgust added. But he
didn't move. His legs shook and his
hat settled down over his ears. One
hand famed the air at the rate of four
miles minute, and its mate perform
ed similar revolutions on the other.
"Leggo!" he yelled, while u crowd
congregated rapidly on the sidewalk.
Lego me feetn
Then he paved for moment and
looked toward his audience in a gentle,
pleading way.
MAKE 'em leggo," he said, plant
lively, II can't get loose"
A small boy snickered and fat man
laughed in large, round tone OF voice.
Hes stuck fast to the pavement"
some one shouted. "Git an Ak"
And then, amid the approving criti-
cisms of 400 people, the fat man, two
policemen. and neighboring drug
clerk dug up four square yards OF
asphaltum pavement in liberatiug the
tall man. The latter, upon reaching
the sidewalk and before returning in
his peculiar way to the Willard house,
banded one Of his rescuers this card:

Rats!

An interesting, not to say valuable
discovery has been made by Captain
Weedin, in charge of the animals at
the Cincinnati Zoo. Tho building is
infested by rats, and how to get rid Of
them has long been perplexing
question. Traps were used, but moth
ing would tempt the rodents to enter.
In stOre-rOom drawer was placed a
quantity of sunhower seeds, used as
food for some OF the birds. Into this
drawer the rats gnawed their way, a
fact which led the captain to expert
ment with them for bait in the traps.
The result was that the rats can't be
kept out. A trap which appears
crowded with six or eight rats is found
some mornings to hold fifteen.
