In my life I have known many women
we'll Among them is fair majority Of
what the truly appreoiative would call
happy, for which fact / thank God, as Il
has helped me to take on the whole 3
hopeful view Of life, rs we'll as Of
human nature. Now, are these women,
blessed as many Of them are with de-
voted husbands, cheerful homes, cul-
tivated society, and leisure for the ex-
ercise Of any special talent they may
possess, beautiful women2 With one
or two exceptions, no. Indeed, more
than few Of them are positively plain,
If feature only is considered, while
from the rest can single out but two
or three whose faces and figures con-
form to any of the recognized standards
of physical perfection. But they are
honored, they are loved, they are de-
ferred to. While not eliciting the ad-
miration of every passer-by, they have
acquired through the force, the sweet
ness or originality Of their character
the appreciation of those whose appreci-
alton confers honor and happiness, and
consequently their days pass in an at
mosphere of peace and good will which
is as far above the delirious admiration
accorded to the simply beautiful as the
placid shining Of the sunbeam is to the
phenomenal blaze of an evanescent
flame. Anna Katharine Green, in
Ladies' Home Journal.

HERE AND THERE.

--One mode Of disposing of surplus
poultry is to can it. This country pro.
duces enormous quantities Of poultry,
and we should be BILE to export por.
tion.
The cost Of farm is not the heavi.
est expense to the beginner. The out
lay for horses, cattle, machinery, uten-
sils and extra labor the first year is
often more than the cost of the farm.
Rules may be made for governing
dairy work, but there can be no rule
made for feeding the cows in regard to
quantity and quality Of food. Each coV
will have her special demands, and they
must be complied with.
When milk is unfit for the farmer to
drink it is also unfit for the young calf.
Scours frequently result from the calf
not receiving milk that is fresh and
sweet. The natural conditions in feed
ing young calves should be observed as
closely as possible.
Manure will not cause the plants to
grow until it is reduced to the condition
necessary for that purpose when APP
piled to the soil. The rain will extract
the soluble matter, but the solids must
undergo complete chemical process
before they will become soluble. Hence,
to secure the best results from the ma
nure it should be well decomposed in
the manure heap.
Look over the vegetable seeds that
are stored away. They should be kept
dry, and as mice may destroy them the
seeds should be protected by suspending
the bags or by inclosing them in tin
box.
-Whitewash should be used in order
to render the stables cheerful. A light
stable is more cheerful than dark one,
and as the lime partially serves to dis
infect the building its application should
be frequent.
"A farmer in Texas gives his hogs
one good feed each year of corn boiled
in the poke root, three parts of corn to
one of the root, He considers the root
preventive Of cholera. In twenty
seven years experience he has never
lost hog with this disease.
The village butcher who buys the
farmers hogs and retails them from the
block in almost every instance makes a
greater profit than the grower dare
think Of. The farmer can save some Of
this profit to himself by learning to
make fancy article Of meat for sum-
mer use. Do it, and quit bowling about
hard times.
Wagon axles should be kept well
creased. Grease is cheaper than horse
flesh, and as the roads in the winter
season do not always permit Of the use
Of light wagons, the draught on the
horses should be kept at the minimum
point, and greasing the axles will large
ly contribute to lessen the wear and tear
Of the wagons as we'll as the labor Of
the horses
Frequent transplanting Of the young
plant and good tillage are essential to
best results in tomato culture, says the
Michigan Farmer. Plants started under
glass ten weeks before transplanting
into the field will give fruit about q
week sooner than those started two or
three weeks later.
IF you wish to set a tree or vine
where an old one has died out, says
Farm, Stock and Home, remove q con

A serIous Loss.

A large number of the farmers
throughout the South have lost their
years supply of meat by reason of the
warm weather occurring after their hogs
were killed. 1t is usual for farmers to
set apart portion of the hogs fatted to
supply the meat-house for the year.
Usually our fall and early winter gives
seasons Of cold weather in which the
killing and sailing may be safely done.
This has been bad season for such
work, and the loss will aggregate many
thousands Of dollars, to be borne by
farmers, already beset on every hand by
low prices, damage by frost, flood, etc.
Many of them have no hogs or corn to
repair the loss with, and are without
money with which to buy. The less
will fall heavily upon large number Of
Kentucky and Tennessee farmers.

Post the Land Against the Pot-Hunters,
and Give Them Chance.
Quite a number Of farmers are COM
planning about the killing Of quail on
their farms, and to stop the total ex-
termination OF this valuable bird most
Of them are posting their farms and re-
fuse to even let their friends hunt on
the land, where the birds have been
nearly all killed. The reason they give
for their action is very good one, it
being that the bird is one of the best
insect-destroyers of the insectivorous
birds, and its humiliation would
work the greatest destruction to
farming products. The genuine hunter
and sportsman cares little for other
game than quail, and it is rare matter
that the farmers have occasion to com.
plain of such hunters, as they never
abuse the privilege accorded to them,
by shooting stock, leaving down fences,
or otherwise taking advantages of the
indulgence afforded them by land own
ers and farmers. However the only
way to increase that tribe Of birds is to
post the land until they start again, as
pot hunters have about cleaned them
up in places. Warsaw Ky.) Independ.

a Darky's Rather Infelicitous Way Of Put

Mr.. and Mrs. Delaney Robinson reside
in cozy fat, or apartment, as they
prefer to call it, in New York City, and
are not without pretentions to elegance.
The janitor is colored citizen called
Samson-not an inappropriate name, Ly.
the-way, for the guardian of building
whose strength may be supposed to lie
in his locks. Samson is former Pull.
man porter, and most efficient servitor,
keeping the halls in immaculate condi.
tion, and the brass-work shining like
the pillars of the Golden City. But,
perhaps on account of his late autocratic
position, he expects to be treated with
great Difference as an individual of large
Importance. In this view the Robinson
cook, a sharp-tongued Irish girl, does
not share; and every time the coal-scut-
ties or the groceries goes up or down,
there is wordy encounter, in which
Samson is invariably worsted. The
other morning matters reached crisis.
His wounded dignity could stand it no
longer, and he stopped Mr.. Robinson on
the front stairs to complain. What he
wanted to say was that the girl assumed
as much authority over him as If she
were one of the ladies in the house, but
his manner Of putting it was, to say the
least, infelicitous. He said: ''Mr. Rob
