Value of Geese.

If geese are allowed to run every where as used to be the general prac- tice, says an exchange, they speedily become a nusiance and destroy moro than they are worth. But they pay for care and feeding as well as any other farm stock. They may be plucked every six weeks through tho season, beginning with the first warm weather in spring, when & portion of the foath- CTS become loose and fall out them. selves. One-third of a pound of feath- CTS may be taken from a full grown goose at each picking, and if well fed afterwards no injury results from picking one each six weeks until cold weather puts stop to this work. Watch for the time when the feathers appear to como easily. They are then said to be ripe" If this time goes by 1t will be hard to make a sat isfactory picking through the year
 Besides the crop of feathers, each fe- male goose should hatch dozen or more young which will pay their keep by their growth of feathers, and be a cash article in the poultry market during the holiday season. A flock of geese gives in feathers, eggs, and in- crease n greater proportionate profit than most kinds of farm stock.

The poor fellow had bent down, and made a snatch at thereptile; at the same in stant the snake had darted at him, and bitten him over the eye.

WOLSEY'S WAY OF LIVING.

 hold Was Conducted,

hold Was Conducted,
 Of the state maintained in the early years of the sixteenth century by soms of the great ecclesiastics, let Cardinal Wolsey's household furnish an exam pie. Three boards were daily spread in his hall, wherever he might be resi-. dent. At the head of the first sat a priest as steward at the head of the second a knight as treasurer, and at the head of the third, an esquire as controller. The kitchen establishment was liberally organized, consisting of a master cook, whose daily dress was either velvet or satin, with agold chain as his badge of office; two un- der cooks and six assistants, or la- borers, as they were called, besides two clerks as controllers, and a surveyor over the dress CTS. In the hall kitchen were two cooks and twelve laborers and child. ren; the spcery was superintended by clerk; the pastry was served by two yeomen and two paste layers, tho scullery by four scullions, besides one yeoman and two grooms. There were yeoman and a groom in the larder; two yeomen and two grooms in the buttery; the same Tn the every; three yeomen and three pages in the cellar; and two yeomen m the chandlery.
 The list is not yet complete. We must add two yeomen in the wafery; a master of the wordrobe, with twenty assistants or ''male chambermaids, !" in the bedroom department; yeo- man and groom, thirteen pages, two yeomen purveyors and a groom purveyor in the laundry Then, in the bakehouse. two yeomen and grooms, one yeoman and groom in the woodward; one yeoman in the garner, and two yeomen and two grooms as porters at the gate.-All the Year Round

Value of Horse Hire.

Few farmers who feed their stock home grown products, hay or grain, appreciate the cost of keeping horse through the year. The city liveryman does and reckoning on days when horses must be idle, he charges what seems very high price when in use. It needs a constant run of custom to keep up good livery, even at these high prices for horse hire, as there are always liabilities to accidents, and al. lowance must be made for these. A careful teamster informed us that his team of horses, worth at least 5000, cost for keeping, shoeing, interest, de. preciation in value and insurance, an average of $1 for each working day in the year. And he had to contend in this climate with some days when for man or team to work out of doors cost more than he could afford. The more we study this question the less excessive the estimate seems. Tha teamster gave nearly ar hour of each day in simply caring for his team and this carefully done, as he did it, was worth pay whether he charged for it or not.--Boeton Cultivator.

Facts About Silver.

Speaker Crisp, having very wisely
constituted the committee on coinage,
weights and measures. with view to
the free coinage Of the white metal
into legal tender dollars gives an i'm
portance to the silver question which
will justify us in publishing q series
OF articles entitled Facts about Sill

cutive Silver committee consisting of
Edward Pierrepoint OF New York;
Francis G. Newlands of Nevada;L. NJ.
Rumsey Of No.; Frank NJ. Pixley of
CAL; John L. Cochran OF Va; H. b
Chamberlain of Colorado; Thos. H.
Nelson Of Indiana. These articles
will run about three months and
treat upon every phase Of the ques-
ton. Those given each week will be
short but full of interest to those
seeking reliable information upon
this important subject. OF the thir
teen members Of the committee on
coinage, r. p. Bland Of No., is chair
man and nine of the thirteen favor
free coinage and four are opposed.
Six democrats on the committee and
two republicans and one Alliance
representative favor free coinage; two
democrats and two republicans are

Fully Recognised.

Speaker Crisp in constituting the
leading committees of the House full
~ recognized Iowa democrats in the
demand of their platform for tariff
reform, and for free coinage of silver.
The choice Of the Democratic masses
Of Iowa for speaker was unquestion-
ably for Springer, who is made chair
man OF the committee on ways and
means, and Of Bland as chairman of
the committee on coinage, weights
and measures. Reasons may have ex-
listed OF which democrats at kome
are not advised, that justified our
Representatives in voting for Mills
instead Of Springer for speaker. But
Mr.. Crisp has given the west all the
party has demanded in the way of
tariff and coinage legislation. There
certainly is no difference among dem
ocrats as to what is to be done about
the tariff; they only differ as to the
best means Of reaching the result
they all desire. 1t OF course
would have been more crafty ing to
democrats had Iowa Congressman
been given positions on one Of these
leading committees. But they can
make themselves heard In the ad-
vocacy Of the measures for which
their constituents contend, where
they are; measures which have wrest-
ed Iowa from arepublican supremacy
OF $1,000 to triumphant democratic
ascendency.

Abolish National Banks.

The treasury handled. under Re-
publican treasurers from the begin
ming Of the war until: the election OF
Cleveland, more millions of dollars
than has been in all National banks
Of the country during all that time
and yet, when Mr.. Manning took po-
session Of the treasury department
there was just one cent unaccounted
for. Again when q Republican sue
ceeded Mr.. Manning, after four years
Of Democratic rule and handling in
that time OF two billions OF dollars,
there was just one silver dollar miss
ing and that was afterwards found in
q crevice in the floor. The govern
ment conducts its business honestly.
The record Of bank failures shows
that 20 per cent of these establish
ments have gone down to wreck and
ruin because Of the incompetency of
their officials. There is no need of any
other or stronger proof OF the fact
that the Alliance ideas are right

BRING ing Up Children.

\ Forester writes: Precept and ex
ample are both needed in bringing
up children. All the noble preceptl
in the world are OF no avail without
example, but the best possible exam
pie il aided by u Judicious admixture
of valuable precepts. II you want
your children to be truthful, honora.
BILE, righteous, kind and polite, never
be anything but truthful, honorable,
righteous, kind and polite in your
dealings with them: surround them,
in fact, with an atmosphere OF truth
fulness, honorableness, righteousness,
Kindness and politeness. twill mar
velously exeInplify all the precepts
you may strive to inculcate in them.
There can be no iron bound rule for
the management Of children. Differ
ent teInperaments require different
handling. What will benefit one child
will not always benefit another. Tn
der NJ circumstances, however, do
believe that corporal punishment ac-
complishes other results than the de-
velopment Of all the most brutal in
stiEct Of human nature. l believe
that parents should enforce obedi-
ence when necessary, but by firm
ness, gentleness, love. It can be done.
Very early in its little life, child
can be taught to govern itself, and
the power Of self government is one
of the grandest goods we can possess.
| have seen mothers make their lit
tie ones positively rebellious by re-
peatedly forbidding them to touch
some article on which the baby at.
tention has been riveted. By wisely
directing the thoughts in another
channel, the crisis may be averted.
When the children grow old enough
to listen to reason, they will give up
because mamma wishes it. But no
task in life requires greater wisdom
than shaping the budding powers OF
human character. Why will parents
willfully neglect it? How can moth
ers dream of higher work than the
training of their own God given chill
dren? Many a disposition is ruined,
many u character manned, by the
rude handling of ignorant servants,
or the neglect and bad management
OF indiscreet mothers. The next gen.
GRAFTON would be a far wiser and bet
ter than this, il wives would stop
fretting about the narrowness OF their
sphere, and devote their energies to
training themselves for the training
Of their children. II a woman has
enjoyed the advantages of q fine edu-
cation, and has gained from II q well
ordered mind, she should be proud to
dedicate this to the use of her chill
dren while their characters are being
nodded. Whoever will pause and re-
fleet, must see that the hope OF the
future lies in the little children. Can
there be any grander life work than
that which centers in theseg
