Getting Rid of n Pest.

Can any one devise a method for
checking the ravages of the May bug
equally bad in the grub state one year
and the winged state the next2 Then
for two years it gives us some peace
find the following method in use in
1873: In Switzerland remarkable ap.
pearance of grubs threatened the en-
tire crops. The council of state ap-
pealed to one of the archbishops to
Danish them. An advocate was ap-
pointed to defend the grubs and a
priest to accuse them After due sum
mons and fair trial this sentence was
pronounced: 'Ye hideous and de-
graded creatures, we grubs There
was nothing like you in the ark of
Noah BY orders of the archbishop
| command ye to disappear during the
next six days from every place where
food grows for man or beast.
But as this was held by some to be
only true citation another day was
set, and the result was this judgment,
I'VE, Benedictus of Monforraud, arch
bishop of Lausanne, condemn and ex-
communicate we obnoxious WORMS and
grubs, that nothing be left OF you ex
cept such parts as can be useful to
man." am sorry to add that the gov
eminent officers reported mo success
had been obtained. Mary E. Spen-

The Race Problem Even in Australia.
Sir George Grey thinks that barrier
against the participation of New Zealand
in Australian federation is to be found
in the colored labor question, which he
believes is one of the first difficulties
which an Australian federal parliament
will have to face. He has declared that
the northern territories, if they are to be
worked at ALL must be worked with col
ored labor, and although he is opposed
to the employment of Chinese labor,
thinks that Kanakas and Indian coolies
might wisely be employed in the north.
Sir George Grey's information differs
entirely from my own, which is to the
effect that even in the event of divi-
sion of the colony of Queensland the
majority of the people in the north
would oppose the introduction of colored
labor, and | regard it as most unlikely
that this question will be raised in the
federal parliament, should it meet, or
at least be raised with the slightest
chance of reversal of the recent policy
of exclusion of colored labor.
No doubt the growing of tropical
produce upon the northern coast will be
prevented, if am right, but firmly be-
lieve that the Australian people have
made up their minds that the continent
is to be reserved for white men, and that
those industries which cannot be sup
ported by white labor are not to be en-
couraged upon Australian soil.-Sir
Charles Dixie in Forum.

A Valuable Invention.

A gentleman who has made several
important mechanical inventions, and
has been for some time engaged in per-
fecting new journal bearing for rail-
way cars which shall prevent the danger
of fire from overheating of the axle-that
is, from what is technically known as a
"hot box"-had not long since an inter-
view with an official of company which
was to take up the invention.
The interview took place at the home
of the inventor, and his daughter, a
young lady well on in her teens, sat in
an adjoining room, where she overheard
all that was said.
Although she listened intently she did
not understand all the details of the
conversation, but that she was much i'm
pressed by what she did hear was shown
by the fact that the next day she con-
fided to an aunt that the family was on
the eve of great success.
81 heard papa telling Mr.. Blank all
about his new invention last night, she
explained, land Mr.. Blank said there
was fortune in it."
"But what sort of an invention is it7"
her aunt inquired.
The girl put her head thoughtfully on
one side for moment.
81 am not quite sure" she answered,
trying to recall the talk which she had
overheard the day before, "but think
that papa has invented new kind Of hot
box. "-Youth's Communion,

Tradition of Scotland's Thistle.

Queen Scotia had led her troops in a
well fought battle, and when the day
was won retired to the rear to rest from
her tolls. She threw herself upon the
g-orrd whore, as i'll luck would have it,
a bristly thistle grew. Whether the fair
amazon fought in the national costume
of Scotland or rot the tradition fails to
say, but at any rate the spines of the Of
Tending plant were sufficiently powerful
to penetrate the skin in very painful
manner. A proverbial philosopher has
said that che that sitteth upon nettles
riseth quickly" and the same remark
holds good with thistles
Queen Scotia sprang to her feet and
tore the thistle out by the roots. She
was about to cast it aside, when it struck
her that the prickly herb would hence
forth be ever associated in her mind with
the glorious victory which she had just
gained Her intention was changed. She
placed the thistle in her cask, and it be-
came the badge of her dynasty.-St
Louis Republic.

References NO Good.

New York references are no good,
said the attorney for collection agency.
I'VE never take them. When note is
due we just crack ahead and bring suit.
Then the man must pay costs besides.
That is the way we get our living. We
rarely ever counsel extensions. Nine
cases out of ten, If man wants four or
FIVE days and gets it he'll never pay at
all, and the advantage arising from i'm
mediate suit is lost. All notary has to
do in case of note is to call at a mans
residence or place of business. He
doesn't have to present the note for pay
ment. If the man isn't there suit
can be begun at once without further
notice. 1t is legal refusal to pay if the
man isn't there to receive the notary.
That is the way we do business. Our
business is to get the money for our
clients. The creditor must look out for
himself. wouldn't give the snap of my

Resting from conflict and danger,

Roses and dark cleaning cypress,
Tender white lilies and rue,
Sun kissed or rain dashed, are bending
Over the Gray and the Blue.
Clusters Of somber eyed blossoms,
Garlands of splendid display,
Lie in the daisies and grasses,
Over the Blue and the Gray.

Putting Salt In Cream.

A well-known western .dairyman, c.
S. Arnold, is on record as saying that
he salts his cream as fast as taken from
the milk. at the rate of two ounces of
salt to the gallon of cream, and is get
ting gratifying results. The cream
ripens better, and with no disposition
to excessive fermentation. The churn
gets more butter from the cream and
quicker than when no salt is used
All this may be so, and as Mr. Arnold
says, but the amount of salt seems ex-
cessive. So far as the churn!ng and
getting all the butter, we think that
adding some fair strengthened brine, q
quart to the gallon of cream when the
churn is started, would be better than
just salt alone. 1t is only another
sign that dairymen are after that last
ounce of butter, and are bound to have
it--for profit. Practical Farmer.

The COW In WINTER.
How She Can BE Made to Yield a Salts
factory Income.

How She Can BE Made to Yield Salts
factory Income.
The quantity of milk and butter that
can be secured during the winter de-
ponds largely upon the management
and care given the cows. Both milk
and butter sell at better prices during
the winter, and for this reason if proper
ly managed a better profit can be real
lied. /. many localities more profit
could be realized by having some of
the calves come in the fall rather than
all in the spring as is SO generally
done.
One of the principal items in having
a good supply of milk economically is
to provide comfortable shelter. With
all animals certain quantity of food
is required to maintain animal life and
heat and where no shelter is provided
more will be needed to supply heat
than with good shelter. The excess
over and above what is necessary to
maintain life and heat goes into milk.
A good milch COW is rarely fat one,
at least while she is giving milk, and
both the quality and quantity are af-
fected by the kind and quantity of feed
as well as the conditions under which
it is supplied. The difference in feed
ing COW through the winter, whether
she is dry or is giving good flow of
milk is small if she is fed so as to keep
in good thrifty condition, while if she
can be managed SO as to secure lib
eral flow of milk there will be xery
considerable difference in the profit.
Clover or millet hay is better than
timothy hay or corn fodder. Wheat
bran is good to increase the quantity,
but the cows need cornmeal or oil meal
to make it a good feed for both quality
and quantity.
Unthrashed oats with wheat bran
make good ration for milk. A good
plan of feeding is to run it through
feed cutter and then add the bran,
dampening the whole and mixing that
thoroughly together, Bran and oil
meal can nearly always be used to
good advantage in feeding the mich
cows, whether in winter or in summer;
but in nearly all cases in order to Sc
cure the best results it will be neces-
sary to feed it in connection with
something else. 1t pays to feed cows
literally; give what they will eat up
clean This applies to rough feed as
well as grain.
Cows need little if any exercise dur
ing the winter When the weather is
mild and pleasant it may be well
enough to turn them out for few
hours during the day, but when the
weather is cold or stormy it will be
better to keep them confined under
shelter. They must be watered regu-
larly at least twice a day, but in bad
weather this should be done with as
little exposure as possible.
Where it is an object to secure the
largest quantity of milk many find it
profitable to warm the water, as taking
into the system considerable quantity
of cold water chills and causes a de-
crease in the quantity of milk. Plenty
of bedding should be provided in order
to keep the cows clean and comforta-
BILE. Feed each COW according to her
needs; furnish variety enough to keep
them in good appetite. In this way
cows can be made more profitable in
winter than in summer.-St Louis Re-
public.
