FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

During the summer eggs shou Id never
be used as nest eggs; there is too mu oh
risk of making a mistake that, to say
the least, may not be pleasant.
For breeding keep two OF three geese
Tor every gander.
If ducks are kept, be sure to have the.
duck house tight and dry.
Guineas are among the best foragers'
OF all the fowls usually kept on the farm.
and il allowed d good range will pick
up the greater part OF their living.
While an exclusive diet of grain is OBJ
jectionable as a rule, yet at this season
some grain must be supplied in order to
keep the fowls in good, thrifty condition.
One advantage in buying needed
breeding fowls the latter part of sum
mer or early fall is that a better selection
can be had and the fowls be purchased
at q lower price.
Keep the March and early April pullets
for laying. II given comfortable quar-
tiers they will lay regularly the greater
part of the winter. Late Matched pullets
will rarely lay before spring.
The best plan of feeding bones to
poultry is to pound them up into small
pieces about tie size of grains Of corn.
Supplied in this way the fowls will pre-:
fer fresh bones to bone-lneal.
Keep the laying nests clean. Filthy
eggs, especially during the summer, Will
not sell at the best prices, and it is often
some work to clean them. A cheaper
way is to provide clean nesting material
II you suspect that your sheep have
been exposed to the c~ontagion of foot rot
stand them for a few minutes in a trough
containing one partof the strong carbolie
acid to 200 parts of water to disinfecf
them.
After the chickens are old enough to-
be given q free range the feeding coops
should all be gathered up and stored
away until needed another season. A
little care in this respect will save ex-
pense.
ri the fowls appear droopy and lose
appetite, it win often be d good plan to
feed them linseed meal. A gill of the
meal given to ten hens twice a week will
aid in maintaining good health and
thrift.
Nestsegg gourds make the best nest
eggs; they are light cheap, convenient,
and there il practically no danger Of
breakage BY the other eggs rolling down
against them, Is IS the case with
porcelain.

The Blue SKY.

Every one admires and talks Of the
blue sky, but how many have observGp
not only hat the sky is sometimes of a
deeper or richer blue than at other times,
but that its changes of tint occur in a
more or less regular way2
Such is the conclusion of NJ. Crova,
who has reported to the Paris Academy
of Science the result of his systematic
observations ofsky colors from December,
1889, to December. 1890.
He finds that the sky is most intensely
blue in December, January, March and
Sentenber, and paler in July, August
and November. Observing the changes
from hour to hour, he found that it was
more deeply blue in the morning than
during the heat or midday. This indi-
Gates that, since the deepest color is
seen, generally speaking, IN the coolest
months and during the cooler part of the
day, heat is an important element in
determining the depth of the sky color

OF RITTER.

The New Hampshire Experiment Sta
ton has been conducting some expert
ments as to the effects of different foods
on the hardness of butter, and though
the work in this direction is not as yet
extensive enough to justify the drawing
of conclusions, their experiments thus
far indicate:
l. That gluten meal tends to produce
a much softer quality of butter than corn
meal or cotton seed meal, and other
things being equal, tends to lessen the
churnability of the butter fat.
2. That with the same COWS the hard
ness of butter depends much more upon
the character of the food than upon the
nutritive ratio.
B. That ensilage produces a somewhat
softer butter than does good hay, but it
is also favorable to the flavor and tex
ture of the butter product.
4. That skim milk has a very favor
able effect upon the churnability and
quality of the butter fat, and in a single
trial apparently reversed the general rule
that the volatile fatty acids decrease as
the period of lactation advances.
5. That cotton seed meal tends to pro-
duce an unusually hard quality of butter,
and that the cotton seed meal and gluten
meal might be used together with excel
lent results. 1
8. That contrary to general belief the
melting point of butter fat is not a coed
index of the commercial hardness Of but
ter. That while in general a soft butter
meits at a lower temperature than a hard
butter, there is no definite relation be-
tween melting point and actual hardness.
z. That no relation can be traced be-
tween volatile fatty acids, except in the
case of skim milk. That usually hard
ness and volatile acids vary inversely,
hardness generally increasing and volatile
acids decreasing, as the period of lacta-
ton advances Creamery Journal.

To S~traighten the Eye.

Any squirt or cast in the eye a be
cured without the expense of going to a
physician or an oculist. It is only
necessary to get a pair of spectacles with
plain glass in and to color the center of
n of the lenses blatk. The eye will
naturally make an effort to look straight
ahead all the time, and after a few days
the effort will be imperceptible. With a
child a cure can be effected in a week,
and with a grown person a month will
suffice to remedy the worst case. Wear
ing smoked glasses is the best possible
safeguard for weak eyes when in a strong
light, and even these will help to get nd
Of a least by strengthening the eyes
and relieving them from unnecessary ex-
eftion. -Detroit Free Press.

An Equine Giant.

There are many beautiful things in
his world, but to the horseman the
thoroughbred is a thing of joy and
beauty forever. Even the ordinary citi-
zen, whose knowledge of horsefesh is
limited to the fact that the animal is
possessed of four legs and a tail, is moved
10 admiration at a thoroughbred's spirited
action and superb outlines. Blood tells
IN every move of the magnificent body
and commands involuntary homage.

For two years I suffered terribly

all that time under treatment by a
physician. He finally, after trying
everything, said stomach was about
worn out, and that I would have to
cease eating solid food for a time at
least. I was so weak that I could
not work. Finally on the recon-
mendation of a friend who had used

me good at once. I gained in
strength and flesh rapidly; my ap-
petite became good, and I suffered
no bad effects from what I ate. l
