TEMPERANCE NEWS AND NOTES.

The French peasant is said TO be changing

and sobriety. He has taken to drink like

Cardinal Manning says that the chief bar
to the working of the Holy Spirit of God In
the souls of men and women is intoxicating
drink. Though l have known men and
women destroyed for all manner of reasons,
yet know no cause that effects them with
such universality of steady power as this
curse of drink.
A Congo native, who has been taught tc

roM1.s As GIEANERs-

It matters not how much care be exer-
cised in gathering the grain crop, more
or less of it is certain to be left on the
field in the shape of loose kernels, single
heads and litterings. Sheep and hogs,
IL turned in promptly, will eat portion
of this ungathered crop, but they are not
often wanted thus early in stubble
ground, especially if it is newly seeded.
Hence farmer having field near the
barn can utilize this scattered grain by
letting the fowls all out at once in the
morning, inducing them to follow him
to the field by scattering grain before
them, remaining in the field with them
half an hour, or until they scatter about
in search of food. Practise this for two
or three mornings, and they will visit
the field often during the day.
By this plan the fowls not only fatten
rapidly, but they are away from the
house and barn buildings, look better
and are healthier than when depending
upon food fed to them. l have known
instances where fowls have been induced
to forage nearly half mile from the
buildings. Not only is loose grain read
lily utilized by them, but insects of all
kinds, and in their season grasshoppers
are their favorite food.-The Examiner.

SMALL CHERsE.

A subscriber wishes directions for
making small cheese that take but forty
or fifty pounds of milk. The fresh
sweet milk is curdled by the use Of rem
net tablets. But too much should not
be used as Il makes a hard cheese. About
four quarts of cheese will make q pound
of cheese. The curd should be used
fresh and before it has cooled. II IL Is
cooled it should be warmed up to ninety
degrees. A large dish pan or a tub
will do for vat where but a small
amount of milk is used.
After the ronnet Is stirred In leave the
milk IN 9 warm place for about an hour
VIXEN the ourd is set.
A convenient way of setting the curd
is to lay square of muslin in the pau,
securing the ends and pouring the milk
into the muslin. When the curd is set
the corners and edges of the muslin are
drawn together and tied, and the whole
lifted out and hung up to drain. As
soon as the whey is drained off the curd
is put into a mold of any shape or size
desired. Have them made Of maple,
beach OF of tin. They must be without
top or bottom.
Mats of rushes, or clean rye or wheat
straw may be used to rest the molds upon
while the cheese is making. The mats
are placed upon cloth which absorbs
the moisture. The molds and their con.
tents are turned daily for three days and
IL desired are sprinkled with salt at each
turning. II to be eaten fresh they will
be ready In three days. If intended for
future use they must be removed to a
dairy house or cellar and kept curing
for six weeks or two mouths, being
turned every day and laid upon lattice
shelf The flavor of the,cheese is i'm
parted during the curing process, and
may be varied to suit the taste OF the
maker by wrapping them in powdered
sweet herbs, cloths dipped in vinegar,
etc., etc.--FWm, Field and StOckman.

PROBLEMS IN AGRICULTURE.

There are problems in agriculture as
important as those in science, and often
as difficult to be determined with exact
ness. Large crops can only be produced
upon lands that are naturally fertile or
on such as have been made so artifcially
by the use of manures or commercial
fertilizers. To keep a fertile soil from
degenerating under continued cultiva-
tion and to restore fertility to an impov.
erished one are agricultural problems
that demand high degree of intelligent
and careful farming for their solution.
A previous good preparation of the soil
is necessary before land is seeded TO
grass, and different degrees of deep or
shallow plowing are advocated as prep
aration, or as after cultivation for vari-
Gus other crops. Along with the use of
concentrated fertilizers 1t is always i'm
portant that there should be decayed
vegetable matter; otherwise the plant
food will not be in we'll balanced propor-
tions. This includes all crops, and sug-
gests the reason why the results from
manufactured fertilizers are often disap-
pointing.
The manure of animals furnishes in a
concentrated form the fertilizing prop
critics of the vegetation they have con
sumed, of which part is taken up and
assimilated in their growth, and a part,
in the condition of excrement, is re-
turned to the soil Thus, barnyard
manure and commercial fertilizers 60
well together, and the amount that may
be prodtably applied to land depends
largely on the increased production from
their use. The value of the increased
production, however, is not to be meas
ured by its quantity alone without taking
the cost of the fertilizers into the calcu.
lation.
Where it is manifest that purchasing
fertilizers is Improbable, the farmers
only remedy is TO keep his lands in good
heart by judicious rotation of crops.
This alone is a problem for which no
ironclad rule will apply, and one many

Go lsul Nearly Thirty Years.

Juan N. Navarro, Consul General in
New York City of the Mexican Republic,
took charge of the consulate in 1858 and
has renamed at his post ever since. He
never grows tired of praising this coun-
try and becomes enthusiastic when speak
ing of what our country will be in the
future. Speaking not long ago about
the changes which have taken place in
Mexico within the last ten years, the
features Of the veteran Consul became
animated, his eyes flashed brightly,
when suddenly cloud seemed to pass
over his face as he exclaimed: "You are
happy in being young, as you will prob
ably see Mexico occupying the place
which belongs to her among the nations
of the world. / am already too old to
haze that satisfaction, but / console
myself in seeing my country in a pro-

Canine Sagacity.

The following story comes from Stone
Lake, Ind; ga gentleman living oil
the banks of the lake has a small spaniel
dog that is the pet of the family. A
neighbor owned a vicious English bull.
dog that seemed anxious to fight aud
kill the little spaniel at any opportunity.
Strenuous efforts were made to keep the
dogs apart, but through the thoughtless-
ness ofsome little children the dogs met
on the banks of the lake and the little
spaniel began his fight for life. He
adroitly managed to get the bulldog to
the edge of the water and then got him
where he had to swim. After this dis
play of intelligence his battle was a
good deal more than half won, for he
had the bulldog at his mercy and in a
very short time had him drowned. -

low n trail like a bloodhound. The
berries led into barren, rocky stretch Of
country, and the Piutes made slow pro-
gress in following IL in. They had to
examine the rocks minutely for scratches
and marks, and even the best of them
found it difficult to tell what rocks had
been disturbed.
While the officers and Indians were
pirooting around among the rocks Sharp
and his partner slipped back to the road
and held up the stage on the return trip
at the same point. That piece of i'm
pudence aroused the express company's
ire, and whole army of shotgun mes
sengers were ordered up to Nevada.
Sharp and Dowd were making good
hauls and growing rich, and they de-
termincd to work the line for all there
was in it while they could. They held
up the stage from Aurora to Bodle one
afternoon, aud lay in wait for the stage
going the other way. Messenger Tobie
and side partner were put upon that
stage, aud upon approaching the turn Of
the road where they expected to get into
a scrape Tobie got down and examined
the ground. He found footprints, aud
was following them, when he came upon
breastwork of rocks. Sharp and Dowd
sprang out, covered him with their guns
and ordered him back toward the coach.
Toble had left his shotgun on the coach
aud obeyed the order. The robbers fol-
lowed him and kept telling him not TO
make any breaks or they would shoot.
Nobody is making any breaks" re-
piled the messenger. "You are doing
all the talking, and guess you'll do all
the shooting that's done" As he backed
up to the wheel of the coach and behind
the side lantern. Tobie whispered to his
comrade: "Pass down my gun"
He got the weapon without letting it
be seen, aud as soon as Dowd came with
in sight of the lantern Tobie fired charge
of buckshot into his breast and killed
him instantly. The messenger then ran
around the coach to get shot at Sharp,
but Sharp got in his work first and hit
Tobie 10 the arm. The other messenger
fired at random aud Sharp disappeared
in the brush.
The two messengers went back to a
house beyond a turn in the road to fix up
Tobie's arm, leaving the driver with the
coach. No sooner had they gone out of
sight than Sharp stepped back into the
road and compelled the driver to hand
out the express box, with which he dis
appeared. Dowd's bank book, showing
large deposits in the Hibernia Bank, was
the clew that led to the capture of Sharp,
who was sent to prison in Nevada for a
term of twenty years. Sharp is entitled
to the distinction of being the only road
agent who ever got away with box
guarded by Wells -Fargo's sawed of
shotguns.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

The hens laying thin shelled eggs Is
often caused by lack of gravel.
When the hens are confined a mess OF
cooked meat will promote laying.
Do not sell off all the old hens. Keep
some of them for mothers next spring.
Old geese should not be sold; they
furnish the most and best feathers; sell
the young and keep the old,
To hatch out late chickens, the best
place to make the nests is upon tho
ground. A more even heat ani moisture
will be secured.
In nearly all cases chickens should be
separated from tho old hens whenever
they are full-feathered. Separate them
and let the hens go to laying.
After the first two or three days it is
important that young poultry should DO
provided with good variety of food in
order to maintain healthy growth.
Store away the sorghum seed, so me

of clover hay, as well as corn, oats and
wheat, to feed the poultry during the

early fall is that better selection can be
had and the fowls be purchased at a

If young chickens are well-fed so as
to make rapid growth they ought to
be ready to market when they are six
weeks, and at latest when they are two
months old.

The statement of a Western farmer

not sure he has yet succeeded, is worthy
of note as showing the difficulties with
which the livestock owner is obliged tc

CurIons Case Of Color RIIndnes..

The London Lancet publishes curl
GUS case Of color blindess. The patient
was an engine-driver in Russia, about
forty years of age, whose vision was per.
feet until 1889. Then he began to suffer
from violent headaches, due to over.
exertion and insufficient sleep, which
were followed by loss Of all power to
distinguish colors. Everything appeared
to him to be red, and he was obliged
to throw up his position. DR.. NJ. Reich,
who examined him, could discover nc
disease, but found his sight, focus, and

to be the fact. The Lancet thinks that

The Mosquito at Last CircumYented.

A correspondent who has had consid-
erable experience in camping says that
out of sympathy with thousands who
have elected to spend more or less OF
their summer under canvas he would
like to make known the way in which he
once secured lasting peace from the arch
enemy of the camper, the mosquito.
He was camped on the bank of lake
and the mosquitoes hung around in
clouds, so that sleep was out Of the ques-
tion. After trying every expedient he
could think of, he found among his
stores a piece of gum camphor, Taking
piece about the size of a walnut be
placed it on tin place and set fire to 1t.
It burned as readily as pitch, with a
clear, bright flame, and apparently no
smoke, but it acted like a charm. In
two minutes the hated ping of the mos
quito had ceased and in five minutes not
one OF the tormenters remained within
the walls of the tent. Then covering
his one window with mosquito netting,
he slept undisturbed the sleep of the
Just. 1t may, however, be well to state
that while the fumes of gum camphor
are distgsteful to the mosquito, they are
not particularly beneficial to human be-
ings, and under similar conditions it
would be advisable for the camper TO
see that a supply of fresh air is intro
| duced into the tent before going to
sleep. ChIcag0 NelOs.

PROTECTING STOCK,

In most pastures there are more or less
trees that afford shade sufficient to pro-
tect the animals feeding in them during
the warmest portions of the day. Where
this is not the case, think there should
be some temporary provision made for
affording it, suggests an Ohio farmer,
for it seems but little short of downright
cruelty that there should be no place in
pasture where cattle can lie down out
of the hot sunshine. This is more likely
to occur when cattle are turned into the
harvested grain field than anywhere else,
and this is easily provided for by putting
up one or more open sheds which will
furnish the required shade and which can
be quickly moved to another field il
necessary. The material can be of the
roughcst and cheapes. description, and
can be taken down aud stored away un-
til the next season. When there is not
enough natural shade this is not only a
dictate of humanity, but il is profitable
in pecuniary way to provide comfort
able retreats for domestic animals,
whether it be from the heat of the sur
or from storms. A simple shed without
any boarding-up of sides or ends is al
that is necessary, and under this the
weaker cattle are less liable to be injured
by others than in one inclosed on thre(
sides.-NeU York World.
