Richmond social life IS excessively dull now
and this dullness will continue until the
exodus for the hot season begins. Instead OF
giving and attending teas, receptions and
other functions. the girls are racking their
brains as 10 what TO wear and how 10 wear H.,
and the men are going into mathematical
calculations as TO how long their finances VIII
allow them 70 remain at the summer resorts.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Late pullets should either be pushed
or marketed.
By having the poultry yard in a sandy
or gravelly soil much slush is avoided.
Horses affected with the heaves are
seldom cured, but the difficulty may be
lessened by shaking the hay, cutting it,
administering it we'll before feeding.
AS long as the animal eats all the food
you give it nothing is wasted. Do not
lessen the supply because the quantity
required is less than you wish to give.
Fully one-half of the failures with
brooders are due to want of care in keep
ing warm. Brooders should be arranged
so that there will be no corners into
which the chicks can crowd.
At the season when the market
gardener is busy disposing of his crop
of peas, beans, ,cucumbers, lettuce, onions,
beets and radishes, he should be taking
advantage of every moist day to set out
celery plants.
Wool must be equally strong the en-
tire length of the fiber, or necessarily it
will be of less value to the manufacturer;
and wool of that kind can not be grown
unless the sheep is kept in good condi-
ton all the time.
Ali butter tubs should be soaked in
strong salt brine for two or three days
before packing and then filed with but
ter to within one-half inch Of the top;
then cover with cloth and paste of
fine salt and water, which should be
pressed against the tub so as to exclude
air from the butter.
All kinds of foods may be relished by
stock, but the food that gives the best
results is that which is most easily di'
gested and assimilated. The individual
characteristics of an animal should bt
considered in feeding. Some animals
will digest certain foods which would
not be beneficial to their associates.
When the peach trees lose their darl
green color and the leaves drop off pre-
maturely, examination of the trees should
be made for the borer or for lice arounC
the roots. Sometimes the trees vii
show the i'll effects of strong growth o
grass or weeds near the trunk. Keep tn
top soil loose, and look well for borers

TEMPERANCE NEWS AND NOTES.

1t is thirty-two years since the first drink
ing fountain was opened in London.
The aggregate quantity of wine produced
by the vineyards of Francs, in 1870, was 81,
416, 327 hectolitres, or 723, 79l, 033 gallons.
The Indiana Granl Lodge of o idfellows
has decided that "members now engaged in
the liquor traffic must quit either the traffic
or the Order of Oddfellows."
In France, from 1927 to 1880, about 200, 600
persons committed suicide. o. these, over
1900 men and 100 women were inebriates,
and intoxicated at the time of death
A liquor dealer in Iowa had as a sign for
his business 'rhe Road to He'll" He should
be credited with an honest expression of
opinion and telling the truth il nothing else.
An exchange states that brandy cigarettes
is the latest device OF the devil for running
the youth. 1t is made of tobacco that has
been soaked in brandy, and the smoker is
enabled to be inUDNicatel without touching
a drop OF liquor.
All Victorians in Austr lila point with
pride to Alildura, the beauty spot, where the
development of the irrigation scheme of the
Chaffey Brothers from San Francisco il
making the wilderness blossom as the rose.
No public houses (saloon9 have been Ii
censed. After prosperity came club Ii
cense was sought and granted, but wrought
such disaster that it was soon revoked. The
district policeman testifies that he has never
had TO arrest a drunken man.

TWO CAUSES oF THE DRINK CURSE.

The drink curse has two principal causes
which come in the ordinary operation of life
and which, il guarded against, might be
greatly abated. These are prosperity and
adversity.
II have known" says an experienced
clergyman, in this city, more persons to
drink on account of discouragement than
from any other cause, unless it be from sue
cess ami prosperity Both are sources of
temptation to drink
When a mans spirits are very low down
on account of adversely in business or social
life it is too often that he tries TO ge5 them
up by the use of ardent spirits; but as this
does not remove the cause it must be resorted
TO over and over again, aud when indulged
in too freely it adds to the difficulty by pro-
ducing physical depression in reaction, thus
in temporarily relieving the depression it
event llly multiplies it.
A young man in the city lost two hors es
at the same time. In encouragement he
drank. While intoxicated he lost 500 When
he sobered up and found that he had lost his
$50 he became intoxicated again. This was
kept up for -four months. At the end OF the
time he found that in trying to get and keep
his spirits up by pouring spirits down, he had
used up everything that he had accumulated
when sober, pawne1 most of his clothing,
lost all his front teeth, spent "A month at the
island and lest his wife. The young man did
not inherit this tendency from his parents,
nor contract it from bsd companiouslip. Ii
was simply an effort to get over his dis.
couragements. s.-NeU York Herald

THE soRnR MAN WINS.

Professor Simon N Patten, in a recent
paper on prohibition, points out chat in the
struggle Tor life the man who does not get
drunk rapidly leaves the drunkard behind,
and from this he argues that the economic
advantage of the abstainers is so great that
they will increase in numbers much more
rapidly than the drinkers do, and will in the
end form a large majority OF the American
population. They will gradually acquire
larger share OF the land AMI capital of the
country, and by their numbers and influence
suppress their opponents or force them to re-
form. Slowly and steadily the abstainers
gain upon their rivals through the better use
they make OF the land, as well as through the
tact that their habits and diet fit them better
for the climate and the social conditions OF
this continent

PEACH FRITTERS.

Have ready the frying-kettle, skim
mer, pan with brown paper, ready for
frying, and finely sifted powdered sugar.
Make French fritter batter by mixing
in bowl a cupful of -four, an even tea
spoonful of salt, tablespoonful of salad
oil, the ycll1 of raw egg and enough
cold water to make d batter thick enough
to hold drop let fall from the mixing
spoon. Peel dozen fine, firm peaches,
four at time; drop them into the batter,
turn them over to entirely cover them,
lift each one upon spoon, drop it into
the fat and fry them, four at once. Just
before peeling the peaches make sure
that the fat is beginning to smoke, beat
the white of the egg to a stiff froth and
mix 1t into the batter. Fry the fritters
golden brown, lay them on paper for a
moment to free them from fat, dust
them with powdered sugar and serve
them hot, piled on a napkin folded on
hot dish. Fine ripe, rare-ripe peaches
make delicious fritters. Other fruits
may be tried in the same way, thus Civ
ing a change as the different varieties
appear In market. t.--Juliet CorS9n.
