SALMON or other canned goods should
not be allowed TO remain in the can in

he never knew bad results TO occur from

NEWSPAPERS are the best thing for
cleaning lamp chimneys. Put the least
bit of kerosene on piece when filling
the lamps: then rub the chimneys until
they shine. 1t is more easily and quickly
done than washing them in soap SudS,

THE STOCK RANCH.
Shelters for sheen.

Shelter from fall, winter and spring
storms. is OF the utmost importance.
The flock during these portions Of the
year, is carrying quite heavy coats,
which, when once soaked with water.
take long time to dry out. during which
time the animal must suffer much dis
comfort.
II you doubt this, step out into one Of
these storms, get good wetting, and re-
main outside until dry.
Strong, cold winds of these seasons.
also are very uncomfortable for the flock
as well as for their owner.
To avoid the losses coming from cX-
posurc 10 such storms, substantial plain
shelters Will pay large interest On the
money invested in them. They may be
built OF poles and straw, boards, stone or
brick; but OF whatever material. there
are a few points the tlock-master must
keep in view in their construction. They
must be on sufficient high ground so that
the flock will be always dry under foot,
and 50 rooted as to always insure dryncss
on the back. Ventilated, so as to be free
from all foul air and from all drafts,
with plenty OF light and never 200 warm.
There IS not much fear Of cold injuring
the flock If they can be kept dry aud pro-
tccted from wind.
4 frame structure is probably the best
and cheapest in most localities We have
found a stone basement eight 20 nine
feet high. built above the ground, with a
number OF windows aud wide doors that
can be kept open in pleasant weather, To
%e very good: especially when our lambs
we're being dropped III early spring, be-
tore the cold weather is past. The great
danger in the stone basement is in keep
ing the flock too warm. which is much
more liable to injure them than cold.
Overcrowding in the shed should be
avoided

will improve your stock.
HARD work is not so apt to injure a
horse as the failure to receive proper at

II there are burrS i'll your corn field or

the wool at shcaring time.
The three leading beef breeds are
summed up by good Judge and careful
feeder OF cattle in this way: "Poiled
Angus and Shorthorns are fine. but for
gain on grass the Hereford leads"
BE sure there are no pitfalls for the
stock to get into. Ii YOU have open wells
in the pasture. fence them strongly; have
good posts well set and good boards or
wires we'll stretched. If the wells are Of
use no longer, ill them up: that is by far
the safer plan. Even the loss of a calf
is more than the worth of time to make
these places safe.
A SUCCESSFUL feeder of steers, when
coming from the Illinois State Fair. held
last October, remarked. "Judging from
the class of stock Of all breeds shown at
Peoria there should be some good steers
in this section OF the country. and there
is" Good steers follow in the wake OF

Feeding Shells for Lime,

As the hens will not eat oyster shells
when ground as fine as meal, and prefer
the large, coarse pieces. il IS doubtful.
says an exchange, if oyster shells assist
in supplying lime for the egg shells. and
are rather eaten because OF being sharp
and assisting to grind their food in the
gizzard- Oyster shells are as insoluble
as limestone. Or any other carbonate OF
lime, and cannot therefore be utilized a.
food. II lime is to be given to fowls it
can best be done in the drinking water,
as the freshly burned lime (hydrate,
when slaked) is the best form for the
purpose.
The lime of the egg shell can be Sc
cured from the food very easily if the
hens are supplied with plenty OF grass
and variety OF food. The grains are
deficient il lime, and when the hens are
confined and fed entirely on grain, the
eggs will have soft shells, no matter how
well the hens may be supplied with
pounded oyster shells. In some sections
Of the country. oyster shells are seldom
seen, yet there is no difficulty in regard
TO the hardness OF the egg shells. The
oyster shells p-Hmote digestion, by as
sisting 10 grind the food, and In that
respect are very serviceable. and aid in
promoting the secretion Of lime for the
shells Of the eggs.-Fa7nl, Field and

THE pOILTKY-NARD.


In several localities observations have
been made OF orchards in which poultry
have been yarded. and the conclusion is
that fTuit-growing and pOultry-raising
are joint occupations. a cherry tree in
a poultry-yard that has yielded no fruit
for years. the american Poultry Journal
says, was this season literally loaded
down with fruit. and of such quality and
freedom from injury as to surprise the
owner. No insects seemed TO have ap-
peared, and the tree also gave signs Of
renewed vigor and health. Nor is this
applicable TO cherry trees alone, but 10
other kinds of fruit. The fowls did not
roam over extended areas, but were kept
in yard of limited dimensions, which
compelled them to busy themselves in
the earth near the tree. their presence
apparently preventing the depredations
OF insects. But how the fowls managed
10 keep off the insects that fly from
point to point can only be accounted for
by suppoSing that instinct prompts the
parents not 10 deposit eggs on trees that
are within the limits Of danger. The
visits Of insects are for the purpose of
propagation, and nature has ordained
that they use caution in order to protect
their young, which often descend to the
earth. This is a theory, but it is a fact
that poultry are protection TO orchards,
whatever the cause.

six theological seminarles, thirty-six

THE FARM.
Telephone for Farmers.

To make a good and sarviccabe tele-
phone, good from one farm house to an
other, only requires enough wire and two
cigar boxes. First select your boxes and
make a hole about an inch in diameter
in the center OF the bottom of each, and
then place one in each of the houses You
wish TO connect; then get five pounds of
common iron Stoyc-pipe wire, make a
loop in one end and put it through the
hole in your cigar box and faSten it with
8 nail. then draw it tight to the other
box. supporting it, when necessary, with
stout cord, You can easily run your line
into the house by boring hole through
the glass. Support your boxes at the
ends with Stats nailed across the window.
and your telephone is complete. The

Boys Stay on so FasSA.

The disposition of SO many young men
to leave the farm and go TO the cities is
not creditable to their Intelligence, for
every city in the country is overcrowded
with this class of helpless young men,;
they grow up on the farm with no idea
of the trials and temptation that beset
their class III the large cities. They
think they can live in the cities without
toll and drudgery that they say is part
OF farm life. There are many ways of
living in Il city, but there is but one way,
and that has as many trials and hard
ships as earning ones living on the farm,
and that is to earn it honestly.
y young man without a trade will find
he has to work harder to make both ends
meet in the city than on the farm. The
young man who thinks the world owes
him living. and expects to find it in the
cities without labor. Will be sadly diSap-
pointed. II must be admitted that trade
tries character more severely than any
other pursuit in life, and puts to the
sevcrcst tests honesty, Self-denial, jus
ticc, and truthfulness, and many young
men of business who pass through such
trials unStaincd, are perhaps worthy Of
as great honor as soldiers who have
proved their courage amidst the fire and
peril Of battle. We once read of mer-
chant, who on his death bed, divided his
hard earnings between his sons, saying,
iii is little enough boys, but there is not
a dirty shilling in it,
Washington and Jefferson We're farm
er>, and two greater statesmen never
lived. Cicero was a great admirer OF the
farmer He declared that the rearing
and feeding Of stock was the most i'm
portant part of agriculture. Washing
tons and JeffersOn's experience corrobo-
rates the same facts. Labor is the best
test of the energies of men, and furnish
an admirable training for practical wis
dom; for industry. wisely and vigorously
applied, never fails of success, as it
carries man onward and upward, and
powerfully stimulates actions of others.
