Her Services Recognized I'm Most impress
sive Manner.
A splendid heroine is Sister Marie
rherese, the Superior of the Sisters of
Mercy, now in TOnkin, who was lately
created Knight of the Legion of Hon.
or, the Governor-General drawing his
sword in the presence of the assembled
garrison, and lightly touching the shout
der of this venerable and devoted lady
thrice with the glittering weapon as he
pronounced the stirring words: ''In the
name of the French people, in the name
of the French army, present you with
this Cross of Honor. No one has more
glorious claims to this reward, as no one
has more than you devoted whole life
to the service of the country" The
troops were then ordered to present
arms" and the ceremony concluded as
impressively as it had begun. The Gov
ernor-General was not indulging in any
figure of speech when he thus addressed
this heroic lady, for such record as hers
is not an ordinary one. Sister Marie
Therese had barely attained her
twenty-sixth year when she was wound
ed at Balaclava as she was tending the
troops on that memorable battlefield.
The Italian campaign was her next ex-
perience, and again she was wounded at
Magenta, in the forefront of the French
army. In Syria, in China and in Next
CO, she was at her post alternating the
sufferings of the sick and wounded; but
the most splendid achievement of all
was at Reichshofen. On that field
which the French remember with pride,
calling to mind the gallant behavior of
their cuirassiers-Sister Marie Therese
was picked up badly wounded amid the
bodies of the slain; but her injuries did
not long detain her from her work of
mercy, and shortly afterwards shell
having fallen close to the ambulance
entrusted to her care, she took the mis-
sile up and carried it to some distance,
when it burst, again wounding her Sc
verely. She had hardly recovered from
these terrible injuries when she was
summoned to Tonkin, and nobly re-
sponded to the call. Such is the woman
whose heroiSm has been publicly recog-
nized, Just as she has attained the age
of three-score years and ten.-London

shown in engraving) to prevent the
stock from pushing it in when reaching
for hay. Spike two two-inch planks
(b) one foot wide around the bottom.
Then bolt q AKA inch piece (c) or good
heavy pole above the top of planks two,
or two and half feet, according to the
size of the stock, as full-grown cattle
will require larger space than calves
or young stock. This rail is necessary,
as cattle are very liable to 'box" one
another into the rack, and falling on
their backs if not found at once will get
killed, as know by actual experiences;
even after they were dehorned they
would force weaker animal into the
manger. Let your cattle just eat the
hay from the stack, making them eat it
as near the bottom as possible, and then
throw out the refuse that accumulates
in feeding.
Then throw itdown from one end just
as you would if you were going to haul
it to the rack, exposing no more of the
stack than you can feed in two or three
weeks. Fill the rack around the side
of the stack to the top of the planks,
as the stock are liable to pull the hay
out and trample it under foot if piled
up to the railing. Give them just
enough so they will clean it up we'll,
and before feeding again throw out all
the refuse, just as you do with your
horses managers.
If you have good hay, we'll stacked, it
is pleasure to feed it this way, and an
easy matter, too. The reason 1 think

this stack rack preferable to any other
is because it is less labor and does not
waste so much if properly used. In
hauling it to the rack it has to be
pitched on the wagon, requiring one
man to build, and then it has to be
pitched on the rack and tramped in. In
this way, it is fed at the bottom of the
stack. saving much unnecessary hand
ling. With good shelter, plenty of good
hay and 3 or ears Of corn per day,
stock cattle will winter in good shape.
The money in hay lies in getting a
large yield from small amount of
land, and in getting good article and
taking care of it. One therefore needs
shed, as it is much better than a
stack. This need not be an expensive
structure. Five tolerable straight
poles twenty feet long, eight feet apart
on each side with three in the middle.
Roof with boards. This will suffice for
an ordinary eighty-acre farm. There
should be four or five feet of fall in the
roof, and the twenty-foot poles should
set three or four feet in the ground.
This, at the most, should not cost over
twenty-five dollars, and if in timber
country where poles can be had cheaply,
and man does the work himself, there
need not be much expense outside the

Some Seasonabie Hints for Cutting, Curing

There are thousands OF tons of hay
wasted by careless stacking and i'm
proper covering but tens of thousands
of tons are wasted and trampled under
feetby careless and improper feeding. A
little over year ago an Iowa farmer sent
to the Orange Judd Farmer a sketch and
description of rack to feed hay, which
was illustrated in its columns. He says:
/ have used such rack for several
years, and l think 1t is the very best
have used or seen described, and much
superior to the one illustrated in this
journal few weeks ago, as l know by
actual experience with both. But
have hit upon what consider better
scheme in feeding hay, and that is a
hay-stack rack illustrated herewith).
Build your rack before you stack your
hay. 1t is best to build so as to make
q fence, where the cattle do not have
access, to answer for one side. Then
build your rack on the other side and
ends, according to the size of stack. l
have seen some with rack all around,
but think that this is more costly and
unnecessary.

long, two and half feet in the ground
