HOW TO SET A HEN.

Very few people know how to set a
hen properly. In the first place, re.
member that you can't make her sit il
she don't want to. Cut a barrel in two
in the middle, then cut u one OF two
slaves, so that when it is stood on its
end there will be plenty of room for the
hen to pass in and out. Place the bar
rel on the ground with the headed end
up, and then scoop out the earth to a
concave shape and put in a very little
fine hay, and the nest is ready for the
eggs. If it is not convenient to put the
barrel on the ground, a grass sod placed
underneath the nest will answer. 1t is
best to place the hen on a few glass or
worthless eggs at first, as she may not
take kindly to the nest you have pre-.
pared for her. Place her on the nest
after dark and she will get accustomed
to it through the night. If she seems in
clined to sit after this she may be given
the eggs which are intended to be
Matched. If the hen is allowed to leave
her nest every day a small coop may be
placed in front of the barrel, and then
she will be sure to return to nest. She
should always have zeal her a cur OF
water and plenty of food. If the above
directions are followed and the eggs are
well fertilized a good brood of chickens
may be expected.-AgricultUrag Journal.

Little Tommy Tittlemouse
Lives in n little house.
Though i'm = big house once lived he.
But the hig house went for beer,
And 50 he's living here,
Where few are all the comforts one can see.
But the little house will soon
Find its way 10 the saloon,
As the devil and the keeper gleeful grin.
Then the keeper'l turn about
And kick poor Tommy out
And the poorhouse, then, will have 10 take

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
D RYE.

Rye is not of much benefit for blowing
under for manure, but it serves some
useful purpose. If the land is poor
the rye may be turned under in May
and buokwhcat sown; this may be turned
under early in July and another crop
sown, clover being sown with it and the
buckwheat harvested. This will pay all
the expenses and leave the clover, which
may be left for hay and the aftermath
remain to be plowed under in the spring
for corn.-NeU York Times.

The first eject Of alcohol on the system is
TO accelerate the action of the heart and
raise the temperature Of the body about Is
degrees. IL is this effect which makes it
valuable in cases Of %fainting or collapse. Tn
secondary effect, however, is TO lower the
temperature which sometimes falls two or
three degrees below the normal point of
ninety-eight degrees, and the warmth Of the
body cannot he restored as quickly as il is
lost. For this reason drunkards are more
likely to suffer from exposure to cold than
temperate people, and the stupor is apt &c
pass into the sleep of death.

A sDOOD. Collecting Mania.

And now the mania for keepsake
spoons has broken out In America. OF
late years Il has been the custom for
Americans travelling abroad to pick up a
spoon pattcgned so as to be emblematic
Of each city they visited-a spoon with a
bear on it in Byrn, one with a liver "a
uonescript bird) in Liverpool, and SO
on. This year New York silvers miths
have produced spoonseto remember this
city by, and and there are alrerdy en-
blematic spoons for Salem, for Boston,
and for other cities .-Neo York Sun.

In a letter to the London Times DR.. Dawson
Burns has placed in array a few plain un-
garnished facts which constitute a hideous
blot upon English boosted progress and en-
lightenment. Last year, he states the peo-
Pile in the United Kingdom spent one hun
dred and thirty-nine million sterling, or e3
l3s. per head, ON intoxicating liquors. This
is an increase of seven million over the drink
bill of 1889. This vast sum equals one
twelfth of the estimated income OF all per-
kons in the United Kingdom, it is eleven
times the capital of all the industrial and
p%rovident societies. and--most sadly signi6-
cant of all-nearly eight times the expendi
ture of all the Christian churches tor all
purposes.

Strange Story of a Dream.

1t was some time in the spring of 1866
that Jethro jackson went to Resaca to
look for the grave Of his son, who was
killed in battle. Like many others, he
wished to find the remains, and to take
them to Griffin and inter them in the
family burying ground.
The comrades who laid young jackson
to rest faye the father a description of
the spot where they had buried him, tell
ing him about the rude pine coffin made
from the boards taken from the bridge.
After many days of tireless search Mr..
jackson failed to locate his sons grave,
and returned to his home in Griffin. A
few nights after his return he dreamed
that his son came to him and pointed out
che spot where he was buried.
The dream was like vision. lie saw
his son standing beside his bed and heard
him say:
FEATHER, l am buried under a mound
which was thrown up after l was killed.
You will know the mound when you see
it by the pokeberry bushes growing upon
it. Go and take m. up and carry me
home to mother"
? So strong an impression did this
dream make upon Mr.. Jackson, that he
returned at once to Resaca, taking with
him one of the comrades who had buried
his son.
The mound was found just as de-
scribed in the dream, and the pokeberries
were growing upon it. An excavation
was made, aud a few feet below the
Garth the rough pine coffin was found,
and in it were the remains of young
Jackson. He was fully identified, not
only by the coffin and the shoes, which
were apresent from the father, but by the
name which was on the clothing.-At-

Refined Punishment.

In the valise Of an English tourist to
Greenland was a big red apple, and the
Custom House men, having seen
one before, and being unable to find any
ono who had, took it for a bomb and
made the Englishman sit down and eat
it. They were quite put out when he
didn't explode and shatter things.-Bos

COWS FOR BUTTER AND CHEESE.


The fact that cows differ as much in
individual characteristics as any other
animals goes to show, writes a Pennsyl-
vania %dairyman, the futility of the nu-
merous experiments made and making by
experiment stations, intended to prove
the fitness of this or that breed or this
or that kind of feeding for certain de-
sired results. There are well known
differences between breeds of cows, re-
sulting from long habit and training, and
these very much affect their value for
certain uses, especially for the making of
cheese and butter. There is no doubt of
the greater value of the Jersey or
Guernsey for the butter dairy, of the
Ayrshire or Dutch COW for milk or
cheese, and of the native for either as
she may be made available. Few dairy
men can afford to keep pure bred COWS,
nor has experience proved it to be de-
sirable. Thu large product of some
pure breds (hf which history records less
than 100 out of more than 10, 900, or
about one in 1907 would be a most fall
lacious evidence in favor of furnishing
a dairy with such COWS. But the nat
ural habit Of the Jersey and Guernsey to
give exceedingly rich milk gives them a
high value FOR crossing OF the native
stock which should be taken advantage
of by all butter or cheese makers. 1t is
too often supposed that rich milk makes
most cheese, aud that of a higher value,
the cheese maker will find most profit in
the best COWS he can procure .-NeW
