CARE OF HARDWOOD FLOORS.

An expert in hard wood floors says
that IL is common mistake for people
to apply wax to an oiled floor before the
coat of oil has become thoroughly dry.
The wax surface is undoubtedly the best
finish hardwood floor can have. It
requires continual polishing with wax
polishing brush, when it is new, but
when the wood has finally been brought
to high state of polish nothing is more
satisfactory. A great many people who
have laid down hard wood floors in their
kite heas have become dissatisfied with
them becasue they crack and fall off in
in splinters when they are scrubbed and
treated in the ordinary way. Such q
result is likely to follow such method
of treating hardwood floor. Scrub
bing any such floor with alkali soaps or
strong alkalies is sure to produce such
results. A hardwood floor must be fin
ished in oils, wax or shellac, and for
obvious reasons the oil finish is the best
for kitchen use. A dirty floor may be
wiped with moist cloth, or, if neces-
sary, little soap and water may be used.
The spot then must be dried thoroughly
and rubbed with little parquet oil.-

PROTECTING VINES FROM FROST.

R. A. Platt, who is an old newspaper
man, but now foreman on the celebrated
Biggs vineyard, incidently gave US some
valuable information this afternoon, rela-
tive to the preservation of the vine when
it is subject to the frost. As it is known
by every viticulturist of the country that
small particles of frost sometimes fall in
certain districts at this season of the year,
and as the young vines are very tender,
serious damages are often sustained by its
ravages in single night. Mr.. Platt, who
is considered one OF our wide-awake men,
is ready for the frost should it come.
His theory, which is said to be correct
in every sense of the word, is to have
piles of straw or manure covered with
tar placed at different points over the
vineyard, and if any indications of frost
appear he simply touches match to the
matter, and the elements for several feet
above the earth's surface are soon COM
posed of one dense mass of smoke,
which continues until after sunrise,
when oil danger is passed. This is a
simple but nevertheless a positive protec-
tion against the ravages of the FROST
Woodland Democrat.

Starch From Potatoes.

We have been shown by B. F. Pritch>
ard sample of starch made at Buena
Park from potatoes raised in that neigh
borhood. The starch was made by hand,
to demonstrate the practicability of the
process, and the result is fattering in.
deed. The starch is as fine as any in
the market, and its manufacture will no
doubt prove one of tie greatest indus
tries of this section. Mr.. Pritchard is
fitting up starch works at Buena Park,
which will be on a small scale compared
to what he contemplates for next season.
He will be ready for operations in a
week or two, and will produce sou
pounds of starch per day. Hes has 100
tons of potatoes on the track, having
planted 900 acres of the tubers this past
season, and he can get any quantity Of
spuds from the farmers in the neighbor-
hood. It is Mr.. Pritchard's 8 intention to
60 into the business on large scale next
year. He will form stock company,
with a capital OF $4,000 or SIS, O0O,
and produce from two to four tons OF
Starcn per uay.
The manufacture of starch from pota-
toes is destined to be one of the biggest
industries in the State. During the
present year hundreds of tons of pota-
toes have rotted IN the ground. And it
was. perhaps, the only season wherein
California potatoes were shipped to the
East in any considerable quantity. The
year before we imported potatoes by the
trainload, but this year we returned the
compliment. We furnished the East
with potatoes during several of the early
months OF the year. Although several
thousand carloads of the tubers were sent
East, still the acreage planted to them
was so large that hundreds of tons OF
them rotted in the ground. Their manu-
facture into starch will furnish ready
market for them, and at the same time
furnish one of the greatest factors in the
upbuilding of the State. 1t is to. be
hoped that Mr.. Prtchard will achieve a
tremendous success in his undertaking.

ROTATION FOR GRAPES.

The practice of changing crops more
or loss systematically has always been
found advantageous, and various theories
have been offered explanatory of the
principles upon which the benefits of ro-
tatigc cropping depend. The same re-
suits have been found in the culture of
the grape.
As stated by Mr.. Saunders, the Super
intendent of Gardens and Grounds at
Washington, it has been customary for a
number of years for the Department to
propagate several thousands of plants,
embracing varieties of grapes. These are
mostly grown from single eye cuttings in
sand beds under glass, and placed singly
in pots, when rooted. About the end
of May they are turned out of the pots
and planted out in the open field, rather
closely, in rows which are about three
feet apart. When they have finished
their growth for the season they are
lifted and removed from the field, tie
ground receives coating of rotted ma.
nure which is worked in, leaving the
surface rough to be acted upon by the
frost.
In the following spring the soil is
placed in good order for planting, and
at the proper time young grapes are
planted as before. These are removed
at the end of the season and the ground
receives similar treatment to that of the
previous year. Notwithstanding this
treatment the third crop is very iudilfer-
ent, and if a fourth crop Is planted it
will prove to be an entire failure. In
view of such diminishing growths upon
the same ground, the question naturally
arises that if a deterioration of growth
becomes so marked in so short time
and with such attention to the soil, what
may be expected when acres are closely
planted with grapes, as in the case of
vineyards, where the entire soil speedily
becomes filled with roots2 1t need not
be matter for surprise if vineyards be-
come unproductive after producing
several unsatisfactory crops. -New Ycrh

MOIsTURE-PAN IN oYEN.

In our own experience in baking, we
find that small pan of water placed in
the oven, and filed as often as 1t be-
comes dry, is great help. 1t prevents
the bread or cake from burning, even
with full oven and very hot fire, saves
nearly one-half the labor in watching
and turning the losves, and prevents q
thick, hard crust. 1t is usually filed
with water from the teakettle, but if the
oven seems too hot, throw out the hot
water, fill with cold and put back. The
pan we use is ten inches long, QUE inch
wide and one deep, 1t Is made by fold
ing the tin at the ends and pounding
lightly until the folds are so close that
the pan is water-tlght. A pan made
with solder will not do, for with the
best of care it will sometimes become dry
and the solder melt aud run out. This
pan slips in beside the pans of bread,
next the fire box, aud takes very little
room, Always have holder to handle
It with, and handle carefully when pour
ing in water after it has become dry, or
bad scale will result. 4i6any Cultioator.

The Telephone Forecasts Weather.

The telephone is about to have a new
application, namely, that of fortelling
storms. A new discovery has been made
as to one of the properties of this means
of transmitting sound. BY placing two
iron bars at seven or eight meters dis
tance from each other, and then putting
them in communication on the side by
q copper wire covered with rubber, and
on the other side with telephone, a
storm can, it is said, be predicted at least
twelve hours ahead through dead sound
heard in the receiver. According as the
storm advances the sound resembles the
beating of huilstones against the win.
dows. Every flash of lightning, and, Of
course, every clap of thunder that ac-
companies the storm produces a shock
similar to that of stone being cast be-
tween the diaphragm and the instru-
ment.-.NeU YorA Journal.

A Fox Story.

An island off the Irish coast was in
habited by large numbers of rabbits,
and could be reached at low tide by
wading, the water there being only few
inches deep. One morning some fisher
men went in their boat quite early, it be-
ing high tide, and on landing saw dead
fox lying on the beach. The animal
seemed to have been drowned. One of
the men, remarklng that his skin was
worth something, pitched him into the
boat. Procuring their bait they returned
to the main land, and the man who had
possessed himself of the fox seized him
by the tail and flung him on shore.
AS soon as the animal struck the beach
he picked himself up with considerable
agility for dead fox, and shot off like
flash up among the cliffs. The men
concluded that he had crossed over to
the island during the night when the
tide was low, in search of rabbits, and
finding in the morning that he was cut
off from the mainland, counterfeited
death, with the expectation of thereby
procuring passage to the shore in a
boat, an expectation which was fully
realized.-National Labor Tribune.

CHARCOAL FOR PIGS.

Now that the corn.feeding season has
come care should be taken to provide
fattening hogs with charcoal. Its alkali
helps correct the acidity ofstomach which
often makes fattening hogs teeth rot
when they are fed all they will eat of corn
on the cob. 1t is not the hardness OF the
grain that does this. Soft corn makes sore
teeth, though it may be very easily
ground with the teeth. the seat of the
trouble is in the stomach, and wood ashes
and charcoal are the cure. The charcoal
also probably furnishes some nutrition.
1t is nearly pure carbon, and the same
chemically as the starch of corn or other
grain largely composed of starch. Burned
corn on the cob IS an excellent way to
feed charcoal to plcs. The burned corn
is also good as occasional diet for fowls,
though these when given run rarely
suffer from indigestlon.-Boston Culti-

Is There Snow on the M00n2

Remarkable discoveries have been
made at the Lick Observatory, Califor-
MA. Professor Holden, the director,
has secured through the big telescope
better photographs of the moon than
have been taken anywhere else, and the
work of photographing goes on every
hour when the satellite is visible. By
studying these photographs with u mag
nifying glass and comparing them any
changes taking place on the surface of
the moon may be discovered.
The astronomers on Mount Hamilton
have discovered some things that nobody
else ever saw, but they have not deter
mined whether these are new features or
things that are too small to have been
seen through less powerful telescope.
For example upon the top of one of the
mountains of the moon the photograph
shows luminous white spot which looks
like snow. If that is snow, and if it
was not there before, the presence of an
atmosphere is indicated. 1t has been
believed that the moon has no atmos-
phere, and therefore is uninhabitable;
hut if it should be demonstrated that
snow falls upon the surface of the satel-
lite the accepted theory would be upset,
and astronomers would begin to study
the moon with new and greater interest.
Objects upon the moon are detected
by their shadows, and a projection or
eminence fifty feet high casts shadow
large enough to be seen through the
Lick telescope. If Professor Holden,
studying his series of photographs,
should discover some day new shadow
where none had been cast before when
the moon was in the same position and
under the same light, he would know
that something had been erected upon
the surface, either part of the crust up
heaved by some internal movement, or a
building put up by living creatures. The
moon appears to be dead, desolate
waste of played-out volcanoes and cooled
off lava beds, without atmosphere, and,
