Chewing Tea Leaves.

The newest thing in the way of a Light,
genteel stimulant thatI have seen used is
lea, said a doctor to a ST. Louis reporter.
The leaves are taken dry, just as the
stores sell them, and chewed in the
mouth, the pulp being thrown out after
ward like an old quid of tobacco.
1t is a woman's habit, and has taken
the place of chewing gum to a great ex-
.ent, but / have seen n or two young
men experimenting with the tea, and it
may get to be a regular fad. I tried it,
out I think that no man who uses tobac-
30 can get any stimulant out of tea. It's
rather harmless, and the stimulating eff
feet is obtained much more quickly by
chewing it than by drinking it. Those
[ have seen using it consume much more
If it, too, than they would if they drank
L.
q 1t is an indoor practice, but, Of course,
& spreads. Well see it m the street-cars
and In the theatres, just as the gum
chewing appears to as now.

sAwDusr AS BEDDING FOR cows.

Mich cows require warm stabling
through the winter and complete protec-
ton from storms and cold winds to pre-
vent them from rapidly shrinking in
their milk. After a cow has eaten her
feed either in the morning or at night,
she feels comfortable and wants to lie
down. AS mich COWS should be kept up
in this way while the weather is cold, it
is very important that they should have
plenty of bedding to cover the stable
floor and keep them clean. For this pur-
pose, says a writer in the New York
World, IT don't know of anything better
6han sawdust, wherever it can be had
for the hauling from the mill or at cheap
price per load. A good thick coating Of
it in a cows stall will last a good many
days if the manure dropped on it is re-
moved early in the morning or before it
has been tracked around much. Dry
sawdust not only makes a soft bed for
the COW, but is also an excellent absorb
ant of liquids. BY removing the small
portions defiled every day and supplying
their place with new, a load of sawdust
may be made to last quite d long time.
It does not become foul and soiled as
easily as straw, and where it is used the
udder does not need washing 50 fire.
quently, but can be kept clean with q
coarse brush. The sawdust that il
thrown out on the manure heap DON be-
comes a good fertilizer, and it will also
help TO loosen up a hard clay soil. If ]
had straw in great plenty that I wanted
to make into manure, I might use it for
the COW stable instead of sawdust, but
think the animals can be kept cleaner
and with less work on the latter"

SELECTING DAIRY cows.

Farmers are apt to use too little care in
selecting COWS for the dairy. Some seem
ito think a COW is a cow, whether she
will make one hundred or two hundred
pounds of butter in a year. But it costs
Just as much to keep a COW that will make
Fonly n hundred pounds as one that will
make twice as much. | would say to my
brother farmers, says a writer in the
american A~grieu1turist, invest in good
COWS, give them plenty to eat, with good
care, and they will doubly repay for the
labor of selecting and keeping.
