SOCIETY SALAD.

The Huebners are billed to give a
series of entertainments at Ramaley's
pavilion, White Bear lake. The COM
pany has been under diligent rehearsal
lately, and should be able to put on any
of the pieces in its repertoire in fist
rate style.
The Nushkas are in Duluth taking in
the regatta, and encouraging the Min
neSotaS to fresh deeds of valor. By the

Society at the races yesterday was
chiefly represented in the gathering on
the porcheS of the Minnesota Driving

handkerchiefs f1uttered in the breeze as
the horses came down to the finish.
The carriage crowd was not large, as
is almost Invariably true of second
day anywhere, unless that day happens
to be Derby day. To-day will in all
probability see a large society repre-

The idea of the White Bear Yacht
club management of holding ladies
races every Saturday has proved a most
popular one. A large attendance marks
each of these events, and it is probable
that the Saturday ladies day will be-
come a recognized institution of the
club.
The regular hop at the Ramaley pa
vilinn at White Bear occurs tonight
and number of st. Paul young people
will he there for the occasion. These
entertainments have become very popu-
lar with the regulars at the lake, as well
as those who go out on purpose to at
tend them.

Too Familiar With the Bear.

Buffalo Courier.
Hilbert Connover, boy employed as
assistant animal keeper in Wonderland,
to-day lies in bed nursing his badly lac
Grated body. 1t was at high noon yes
terday. when the chief keeper mad gone
to dinner. that Hilbert, in violation of
orders to keep away from the cages,
tried his hand at animal training in
company with another boy about his
own age. Armed with stiff rawhide.
they entered the den of the smaller of
the two bears and began to lash him
and try to teach him tricks. This was
something new to bruin, who showed
his teeth and resented the intrusion.
The thing Connover knew he was
lying face downward on the floor of the
cage with the bear on top trying to
make meal off the fleshiest portion of
the boys body, while the other young
ster piled the whip with vain effort to
choke off the animal. Connover's Wig
orous cries for help were heard by
Stare Manager Frank Hall, who sue
ceeded in rescuing him.
COnnoyer now lies face downward in
bed, and when he gets up he will
doubtless for a while take his meals
standing.

A statement made officially by Gen.

garding the reported sale of large st.
Paul interests in the South St. Paul en-
terprise to Chicago parties is as follows:
s'Mr. Da Costa, one of the New York
attorneys of the Chicago syndicate,
wrote to me about two months ago init
mating that his firm would like to open
up negotiations for the purchase of the
st. Paul Union stockyards. After con-
suiting with st. Paul stockholders and
the principal directors ] wrote to him
saying that these yards were not for
sale. So far as they are concerned
nothing has been done in the way of
sale to anybody, and [ feel certain that
the Chicago dispatches to the effect that

Fatally Injured.

At about half-past o'clock yesterday
morning Thomas l. Bollok, brakeman
on the Omaha road, was found lying be-
side the tracks in the Omaha yards in
East st. Paul. He was unconscious, the
left side of his head was badly smashed
and his arm was broken. He was
taken to st. Joseph's hospital by the
patrol wagon from Margaret street
station, and his wounds were dressed.
At last accounts his recovery was
doubtful. 1t is supposed that he was
struck by a passing train. He was
missed at about II o'clock in the even
ing, and probably lay in the yard for
some time after the injury. His place
of residence is not known. 4

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
TO DESTROY sTUMPs.

1. Bore hole one inch in diameter,
eighteen inches deep, into the centre of
the stump and put in one ounce of salt
petre, filling up with water and plugging
up the hole. This should be done in the
fall. In the spring the plug is to be
taken out, half gill of kerosene poured
into the hole and set on fire. 1t will burn
out the stump to the furthest root.
2. In the fall bore a hole one inch in
diameter, ten inches deep, into the CEN
tire of the stump and put in half pound
of vitriol and plug very tight. IL the
spring the whole stump and roots through
all their qualifications will be so rotted as
to be easily removed.-Farmsers' Home

FEEDING YOUNG PIGS.

It's not profitable to sell pigs at the
early age of four weeks unless they are
fat enough for roasters and can be sold
at good price. More gain in weight
is made in such pigs than at any other
age. 1t would certainly be advisable to
put them up and feed them for sale later,
when they might weigh 100 to 1875
pounds each and sell in the market for
seven or eight cents per pound dressed.
A four weeks old pig we'll fed will, or
should, gain one pound of live weight
for three to four pounds of food con-
sisting of milk and corn meal for the
first few weeks, and afterwards should
make a pound of live weight for each
four pounds of cornmeal alone, equal to
fourteen pounds of weight for a bushel
of corn. This is the best that can be
expected, and the question may be de-
cided on a calculation of cost with ex-
pected value after a certain period Of
fee1ing. -Nee0 York Times.

HOW TO JUDGE WOOL.

An Australian expert gives the follow
ing On judging wool on live sheep: 1.-The
finest and soitest wool is always on the
shoulders of the sheep. An expert in
judging sheep always looks at the wool
on the shoulders first. Always assum-
ing that the wool to be inspected is
really fine, we first examine the shout
ders as a part where the finest wool is to
be found. This we take rs q standard,
and compare it with the wool from the
ribs, the thigh, the rump and shoulder
parts, and the nearer the wool from the
various portions of the animal approaches
the standard the better. First we scru-
tiniZc the fincncss, and if the result is
satisfactory we pronounce the fleece in
respect to finencss very 'teven." Next
we ScrutiniZe the length of the staple,
ard we find that the wool on the ribs.
thigh and back appcozImates reasonably
IN length to that of cur standard: we
again declare the fleece, rs regards length
Of staple, "tFue and even" We next
satisfy ourselves as to the density of tic
fleece, and we do this by closing the
hand upon portion of the rump and
loin wool, these points being usually the
,thinnest and most faulty. If this again
gives satisfaction, we designate all the
WOO! even to density Now to sum-
marie these separate examinations: If
the fleece IS nearly of equal length on
shoulder, RIB and back, and density on
shoulder and across the loins, we con-
iclude that we have perfect sheep for
producing valuable wool. "--Bost01a Cul-
ticator.

such by reason of its scru2 owner. The
cow always does as it is done by. Ii my
neighborhood the scrub cow reigns SUI
preme. It is born and reared scrub and
is fed on scrub; that Is, on browse SUN
mer and winter. aud never learns the
smell Of hay or the taste Of meal. Con-
sequently it is bred to scrub bull and
rears scrub calf, and gives gallon of
milk day at the best, for two or three
months after which pint tin cut holds
all the milk. The poor calf gets half
the milk for month, when it is turned
into the woods, and when q year old Is
perhaps little smaller than it Was eleven
months before. Possibly, as scrubs, the
common cattle of my present locality
can scarcely be beaten. But as a proof
OF my statement on the first line / give
this record of a scrub cow which [ have
had five years and have regenerated dur
ing that time into a very fair mixer. At
first, at three years old, she gave me,
three months after calving and on the
best feeding, six quarts of milk per day.
By good feeding on clover pasture, clover
hay and corn meal, as much as she can
use proftably, she has come up in the five
wears to her sixth calf, and her udder has
greatly increased in size, until now it is
forty-two inches around at its upper part,
and with her fifth heifer calf, all Of
which have reared, her yield is eight
cen quarts of milk daily, from which is
made eleven pounds of butter in week.
One scrub heifer with her first calf, and
two years old, is milking fourteen quarts
a day.-4naerjcan Agricu!turist.

THE VALUE OF CHICKEN FEATHERS.

An Indiana reader asks if it will pay
to save chicken feathers. Our reply is
"Ycs;' for while they have not the same
marked value as those of geese and
ducks, it will pay to save them on any
place where over hundred head of
poultry are kept.
These feathers are easily dressed.
Strip the plumage from the quilts OF the
larger feathers and mix with the small
ones, putting the whole loosely in paper
bags, which should be hung up in the
kitchen or some other place to dry.
Then let the bags be baked three or
four times for half en- hour at a time in
a warm but not hot oven, drying for
two days between each baking, and the
process will be completed. Less trouble
than this will answer and is often made
to suffice, bit the feathers are inferior in
crispness to those so treated and may
occasionally become otfenSiVe.-Aelc

TIE VALUE OF ROOTS FOR FEEDING.


No farmer who has once grown roots
for fall and winter feeding will ever aban-
don the practice. And no farmer who
can be induced once to grow them as a
trial will ever regret the pains he has
taken. No doubt under the generally
careless culture Of such crops there is
much labor bestowed upon the roots.
Weeds have to be destroyed and much
hand-hCeing has to be done. This is
the fault Of the farmer and the land, and
not Of the root crop itself. The young
plants grow slowly at the best, and III
weedy ground make still slower growth.
But this may be overcome by having the
ground clean and we'll fertilized. Any
farmer who has never grown roots for
fear of the labor Of keeping them clean,
should pillow an acre now and get it ready
for cross blowing and thorough harrow
ing in the spring SO that it may be we'll
cleaned by the end Of May for the SOW
ing. A small plot can be easily kept
clean by the use of one of the hand cult
vators, and will require no more labor
than q crop of potatoes OF corn.-Ameri-
