prepare costly quarters for this purpose,
but they can make a warm, coy place
for them, without any great expense, by
the method suggested. It's very grave
error to burn the clover chaff as many
farmers do, and allow the sows to far
row in almost any kind of a fence cor

ton. A little wisdom and action COM

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Hints to Houselsonnnr..

A FRESH egg will sink in water because
of the water i'm it, 1t will lie on its side
also rather than endwise. Should the
yolk be plainly distinguishable upon be-
ing held up to strong light, the egg is
good.
HALF teaspoonful of sugar will
nearly always revive dying fire, and,
unlike the few drops of oil which SER
wants are so fond OF using, and which
has caused so many sad accidents, is per-
fectly safe.
In making custards and custard pies,
heat the milk to the scalding point be-
fore adding 1t to the beaten eggs and
sugar: bake at once in hot oven. The
time required for baking them will thus
be reduced one-half.
BLACK satin can be stiffened by spoig-
ing with vinegar and water, table
spoonful of the former to pint of water.
Sponge on the wrong side, then more
lightly on the right side and press on the
wrong. If there are greese or other spots
on it they may be removed by the use OF
alcohol and ammonia in equal parts, d.
luting each tablespoonful OF the mixture
with pint of water.
To REMOVE and prevent dandruff a
good wash is made from two ounces OF
pulverized borax, two ounces of gum
camphor, broken in small pieces, one
quart OF boiling water. Bottle and cork
tightly. Before each time of using strain
a small quantity off and dilute with an
equal portion of water. Apply to the
head with a flannel cloth or with the
hands. Wash the head and hair after.
ward with soft water.
TEA leaves are good to scatter over
carpets before sweeping, not only to
freshen the colors, but also to prevent
the dust from arising.
AFTER buttering the tins for layer
cake, give them good sprinkling OF
-four. This will prevent the cake from
sticking to the tins, and little less flour
will be required in the making of the
cake.
A BULGING appearance of the can, in
the case OF canned goods, is indicative OF
decomposition Of the contents.
A DRINK which is very refreshing to
invallds is made from lime juice and
sugar.
RUB together one tablespoonful OF but.
ter and three OF flour. Roll this into the
upper crust of pies; IL will render the
crust flaky and tender.
BEEF marrow is excellent for frying
purposes.
WHEN decanters and carafes become SO
discolored inside that shot or fine Goals
will not cleanse them, fill the bottle with
finely chopped potato skins, cork
tightly, and let the bottle stand for three
days, when the skins will ferment Turn
out and rinse. The bottle will be as
bright and clean as when new.

But the English manufacturers

there Will be q dozen tin plate fseto-

that their trade IL slipping from them

For every ton of tin plate they bring
In after July !, they will pay t24 in-

American buyers will get the tin
plate without any increase In price"
But this will have no effect upon

facturers. Mr.. Niedringhaus pro-
poses to get right ahead with his St.

are fairly ut work the price will go
so as to drive the Englishmen out Of
