1t is a melancholy fact that many kittens
born into this world must in the interests Of
humanity be killed, and the question is
how it can be done most humanely. 1t is
said by persons who have narrowly escaped
drowning that their sensations were not
painful am inclined to think that put
ting kittens in an ordinary flower pot, and
then plunging it upside down in pail or
tub of water, is about as humane a method
as can be found. The air escapes through
the hole in the bottom Tor rather the top of
the flower pot, and it instantly fills with

curious trap at the patent office, says
the Philadelphia Record, is All imitation rat
that has piece of toasted cheese stuck on
the end of little spear that projects from
his nose a short distance When a real rat
comes up to nibhle at the cheese the spear
jumps out about six inches and impales the

Invention No. 2 is thus described by the
st. Louis Globe Democrat: A new device
of domestic economy is applied to the com
mon barnyard fowl, and is called the "hen
persuader." 1t is simply piece of strong
wire, shaped like a long fork without a
handle. and fastened ABOUT the hens ankle
with the prongs extending rearward. In
this way the fowl is rendered unable to
scratch, and, not being able to move back
ward because the prongs of the persuader
stick into the ground when she tries to do

the time, which conduces to the finding of
the greatest possible number of bugs and
to the cheap nutrition of the bird

Corn grown for fodder, either as ensilage
or dried for winter, should always be plant
ed or drilled thiuly enough to permit the
formation Of some ears. 1t is not necessa-
ry nor advisable that the ears be large for
fodder, as they will be harder to use if
dried and more difficult to cut up with the
ensilage cutter Cattle eat this richer food
much more thoroughly than they do corn
fodder grown so closely as not to form
ears. The grains of corn, also, in this en-
silage are perfectly digested, and do not
come out whole on the manure heap, as
they do when corn is fed dry An addition
of bran, wheat middlings. or barley sprouts
improves the rations for cows giving milk,
but is less necessary than with the poorer,
