CHICAGO, January 2.-Chairman A.
g. Cavanar of the grievance committee
of the Brotherhood of Engineers. says
the Brotherhood never were more ear
nest in its support of the Burlington
strikers. Still, the fact is recognized
that they have got the worst OF it, and
are willing to settle the matter. if the
company will only make few reason

serious trouble will follow, and the
strike be extended to the roads which
have blacklisted the strikers.
Daily Mems interview: Cavanar says
in case the Burlington company refuses
their overtures for q. settlement, the
Broiherhoou will make an extremely
rad cal move. He admits that the COL
ference of engineers from all western
roads last week was for the purpose of
considering this matter. Cavanar says
they have consulted the best legal tai
ent of the country (tbis is understood

believed this foreshadows strike on all
western and southwestern roads which
connect with and feed the Burlington.

GARDENING.

Tomatoes and Cucumbers Successfully
Grown in Barrels.
During the past season the writer has
raised early cucumbers and tomatoes, in
small way, in old lime or cement bar
rels, according to the following method:
The bottom and bilge hoops were we'll
nailed, an inch hole bored in the bot
tom, and the barrel was filled with we'll
rotted stable manure, and packed down
so that it was about half full. Three or
four inches of good rich soil was added,
and about dozen white spine cucum-
Der seeds planted; scattering them we'll
around. The top was covered with a
piece of coarse unbleached muslin,
sewed to hoop large enough to go down
two or three inches over the top of the
barrel, to keep it in place and prevent
it's being blown off.
This acts as a hot-bed or forcing
frame, and protects from frosts. 1t was
kept well watered, and in the middle Of
sunny days the cover was lifted to give
air. In very cold weather some old
coarse bagging or straw was put on top,
but not too much, as it would smother
the plants. When the plants were well

the wood, piece of tin or layer of clay

enter the wooden box two inches below

CAIlIED vs. WARMED WAFER.
Should water for stock BE Warmed In
W1nterf
In speaking of the lamb-feeding ex-
periments at Cornell University in re-
cent issue we directed attention to the
great difference in the amount of water
drank by the different lots of lambs,
and noted that the lot that drank the
most water also made the greatest gain.
There is belief among dairymen, as
old as the hills, apparently, that the
best dairy COWS drink the most water.
It must be acknowledged by all who
have looked into the matter that water
plays most important part In the ami
NAL economy, and that any curtailment
of the full supply of this article will.
bring loss to the herd. Already the time
approaches when the farmer should
make ample provision for full supply
of pure water, placed where it is easily
accessible to the weakest animal OF the
herd or flock.
For two or three years past the ques-
ton of warming water has been consid-
erably agitated in the Northwest, and
though some of our experiment stations
have shown that there is no apparent
gain from warming water, we still be-
lieve that losses often result from hav-
ing the water so cold that animals drink
less than they would were it more pal
atable. We doubt if the experiment
stations, in giving cold water, have ap-
proximated the conditions which obtain
in an ordinary barn-yard. A hole
chopped through the ice in the water
trough on cold winter day, exposing
ice-cold water beneath, does not offer
much inducement for animals just let
loose from a warm barn, and sensitive
ones probably but partially slake their
thirst under such conditions. The least
that can be done is to bank up the
troughs, leaving but small surface
exposed at the point where the animals
approach for drinking. With the
troughs banked up by earth or straw
litter and covered with good layer OF
straw, except at the one opening, where
considerable water is used, very little ice
will form except in high ATTITUDES.
In many cases at the North, however,
we still believe it will pay to warm
water for farm stock, in spite of the ex-
periments reported to date. OF course,
economical methods of heating water
should be employed, and apparatus for
this purpose should be complete but
reasonable in cost and of easy manipu-
lation. At the fairs this fall numerous
heating devices are being shown, and
the stockman has an opportunity for
preliminary investigation and compare
son of the different systems employed.
Those who have any misgivings that
their stock will not have abundance Of
not too cold water, easy of approach so
that the weakest of the herd or flock
can gain access to it each day during
the winter, should attend to this matter
at once. The fact that the animals
have enough water to keep them alive
will not SATISFY the intelligent feeder;
rather will he endeavor to secure a
large consumption of water, knowing
that this is coincident with good gains.

Divorces in France.

The divorce law passed in France in
1884 seems to be operating with terrible
effect. In 1884 there were 1861 divorces;
in 1885, 4, 1913; in 1885, 4,o07; in 1887,
5,797. But the most astounding state
ment made is that in the Department of
the Seine. e., Paris and its neighbor-
hood-there are no fewer than CAS- di-
vorces to every thousand marriages, or
that considerably more than one in
twenty marriages (say one in sixteen)
ends in a divorce. On the other hand,
in the Finistere and the Cotes des Nord
not much more than one in a thousand
marriages ends in . divorce curious

Small Savings.

A rather irritable farmer annoyed by
the fowls on his grain mows, picked up
club and slaughtered a dozen of the
hens. To his wife's remonstrance he de-
clared that the fowls were great dam
age and of so little value as to be of no
account at all. The woman was, how
ever, able to show in reply goodly roll
OF bills she had slowed away as the re-
ceipts from the poultry and eggs she had
sold. Chickens, as q rule, are wasted
to a great extent for want of the care
that might easily be given to them, and
as regards the little food they may steal
this is not one-tenth as much as is stolen
by rats and mice without any COM
plant or notice. Moreover, the waste
of small grain and other food that
might be turned into products is sufii-
cient to amount to very pleasant sum
OF money every year.

The advantages of this brooder are:
1. The cold air is warmed and passes
under the mother, thus giving constant
warm air and constant ventilation, the
heat itself being fresh air. 2. The
smoke of the lamp Is carried above the
mother, and can not affect the chicks.
8. The dead air space between the floor
and heater-box (M) prevents too much
bottom heat. 4. Two lamps Zone on
each side) may be used if desired, pro-
vided q division is made in the wooden
box. 5. The lamp, being outside of the
box, does not become overheated, but is
always cool, thus avoiding smoking. 6.
If preferred, a piece of tin may be used,
as shown by the dotted lines (T), in
order to concentrate the heat of the
lamp by reducing the space in the box.
The box, NJ, only slopes on two sides,
and extends across the whole of the
wooden box, and is consequently a yard
square, the ends next to the lamp and
smoke-stack being only half an inch
high, while the ends on the other sides
are one inch high at the center, as
shown in Fig. 3. If preferred, the holes,
A A, may be on the other sides, pro-
vided box M slopes from those sides.
The brooder should not be too warm
on the floor. If such is the case a false
floor may be used over the floor. The
proper heat should be about ninety de-
grees half way between the floor and the
bottom of the mother. At night the
heat may get rather low. 1t is just
right when the chicks sit near the edge
of the mother, which is simply board
with strips of cloth tackled around it and
cut in strips. If the chicks crowd to-
gether at night, more warmth is neces-
sary. If chicks are found dead in the
morning, or have bowel disease, it indi-
Gates that you have not given sufficient
warmth. Keep chicks confined to the
floor of the brooder for . week before
giving them more space. The brooder
will hold one hundred chicks.

THE CARBON FiLAMENT.

How 1t In Placed and Secured In tho Eleo.
trio Lamp.
The first step is to take two minute
pieces of platinum wire, one end of
each having been shaped into little
socket capable of holding the enlarged
end of the carbon 61ament, and, after
mounting them in small lathe chuck
to wind melted glass from glass rod,
heated in a glassblower's lamp, around
these platinum wires until they are for
some distance imbeS1ed in glass and
formed into a structure such as is seen
at the lower part of the ordinary in
candescent lamps. Into these lamps
and platinum supports are then in
serted the large ends of the carbon fla
ment.
In the meantime small glass TASKS,
made by the thousands at the glass
works, are passed through a variety of
manipulations by which small glass
tube is attached to what would be the
bottom of each flask, and its neck
is shaped SO as to receive the
glass socket carrying the platinum
wires and carbon flament. At the
proper time this socket is dropped into
the prepared flask. and by manipulation
with the glassblower's lamp and slight
OF hand which IS simply marvellous the
glass socket with it's carbon filament
and connecting wires, is sealed by fusion
of the glass itself into the neck of the
flask. The girl holds in her left hand
the glass flask by the glass tube which
has been attached to it, and in her right
hand the shears with which she at
times holds and shapes the glass socket
and neck of the flask.
The next thing to be done with the
lamps is to exhaust them. For this
purpose they are attached by the small
glass tubes before mentioned to radiat-
ing glass connectors, and these in turn
are attached to the pumps, while at the
same time electric connections are made
SO that currents can be sent through the
filaments of the lamps while they are
being exhausted by the pumps.-Scrib-
ner'S Magazine.

dated Rocking Chairs.
The Shaker rockers as they are most
improperly called, which we buy for
ninety cents apiece and use for one
summer upon the piazza and throw
away because of broken splints and de-
crepit rockers, can be successfully
treated by the home worker and made
to I'LL an important part in house fur
nishing.
One of the old chairs thus transformed
and promoted to an honored place in the
sitting-room was deprived of its broEen-
down rockers and the badly-damSged
splints which had made the seat. A
new seat was made by sewing strong
duck across the bars which had held
the splints. A loose cushion stuffed
with hair was made of ticking and
tackled down upon the duck.
The back, which was ingeniousiy made
uncomfortable by wooden stats, was also
supplied with . hair cushion, tackled
down in many places, and well secure
to the Stats. Across the top OF this
cushion was sewed one OF the broad
steels used for dress offenders; without
this support, the cushion would sag in
the middle after the fashion Of most
homemade upholstering. The outer
cover, which made the chair beautiful,
was made of pale blue ssteen, orna-
mented with Edelweiss flowers scattered
on full face without either stems or foil
age.
There are many materials which can
be used for covering, that, although they
are not so pretty as the blue sateen ara
much more serviceable. Turkish fowl
ing in the deep ecru shades make good
cover. Conventional designs cut ont OF
