STOCK ITEMS.

Ordinarily, twelve hours is as long as
swill feed of any kind should stand be-
fore feeding out.
1t is very important to have good
health among the hogs if they are to
be made profitable.
In selecting the hog, too many make
the mistake of paying too much atten-
ton to the form of the hog, rather than
to the blood
To certain extent and for certain
purposes cross-bred pigs may be best
but the trouble is the crossing is usuaa-
ly carried too far.
The intelligent farmer can find many
ways to supplement corn with profit to
himself and at the same time add to
the thrift and health of the hogs
While stock cattle, if in good health,
may go through the winter in fair
shape without shelter, the amount of
feed will be much greater than if made
more comfortable
Nothing convinces farmer quicker
of the value of good cattle than for a
buyer to pick out few of the best and
say that if all were like the m they
would be worth so much more.
The more closely we assist nature in
complying with all its wants and pro-
mote and stimulate all Of its require
ments, the more readily we shall sue
coed in the management of the stock.
Hog and chicken cholera are both
much easier prevented than cured after
it once gets start Make the condi-
tons as unfavorable as possible for the
development of the germs of the dis
eaSe.
The time that the Landing season
should begin will vary according to To-
calities and the purpose for which the
lamb is intended, but it is usually best
to be little early rather than little
late.
When to sell the wool so as to realize
the greatest amount of profit, is an i'm
portant item. Holding for better prices
is always attended with some risk, so
that in many cases the average farmer
cannot afford to hold it.
Each one must decide for himself
whether it will pay to feed grain to
cows on pasture. If the milk yield
shows increase enough to more than
balance cost of meal, that settles the
question in favor of feeding grain.

Transnarent Glass Bricks.

For some time past transparent glass
bricks have been let into the walls to
afford light at places where a window
would interfere with the architectural
plan. But now it is proposed to cast
glass, not necessarily transparent, into
large blocks of buildings. This ma
terial is practically indestructible, per
fectly non-absorbent and, therefore,
damp-proof in a manner which few
bricks are, and in this way coarse glass
of this kind could be made nearly as
cheap as concrete, stone, or baked clay.
A plan has also been put into practice
by which broken glass Of various colors
is mixed up, placed in molds lined with
silica, tale, or some other resisting ma
terial, and fred The result is firmly
coherent mass, which can be dressed
and cut into blocks, which are, Of
course, irregularly colored, and may be
employed in place of artificial marble
If decorative effects are desired design:
in relief can be obtained by pressure
while the block or slab is still plastic.

CHAPTER XIII.
GET EMPLOYMENT.

My mothers cousin, Mrs. Laura Ber-
nard, was stately dame with strongly
marked aristocratic tendencies. Her
husband was prosperous business man,
reputed very wealthy, and his house
was the costliest one in the town. Mrs.
Bernard no doubt realized the advan-
tages she possessed on account of being
the wife of such husband, and the
mistress of such a home, and perhaps
she was not to blame for availing her.
self of them and holding her head as
high as they would permit. Certain it
is that she assumed an air of superior
ity that was intended to lift her a de-
gree or two above the rest of the world
and piace her entirely out of reach Of
the common run of humanity.
IS. Bernard, though aristocratic and
proud, was charitable after a fashion.
With her charity was a fed, and she
gave to the poor not for The sake of
helping them, but because it afforded
her an opportunity to contrast her posi-
ton with theirs and thus make more
apparent the wide gulf that lay be-
tween her and them. She was careful,
too, to impress her benefciaries, by her
manner of giving, with the fact that she
was of higher caste than ordinary
human clay, and that she stood between
Heaven and earth, receiving Gods
blessings, which were intrusted to her
hands for distribution among the poor.
She enjoyed alms-giving because it af-
forded her such a magnificent oppor-
tunity to make the recipient feel how
small, unimportant, and generally I'M
worthy of existence he was.
When reached the presence of my
relative was received not altogether
uncordially, but sufficiently so to cause
me to feelve uncomfortable and i'll at
ease. She welcomed me to her home,
but did it in a way to make me feel
completely unwelcome; and she ac-
knowl0dged our relationship, but at the
same time erected barrier between us
which kept me at a chilling distance
from her.

made myself known to her, you are

thought of being dependent on such
cold, unfeeling charity ranked in my
heart and stirred my proud nature to

been welcomed to enjoy it, yet a bare
crust, freely given, would have been a
thousand times more enjoyable. To be
dependent at all was cruel enough
without having to feel it so keenly.

FARM NOTES.

liable to be drawn out by frost.
Clover is one of the very best fertil.

To get the best results from the cur.

The farmer of to-day demands quick
returns from whatever he engages in.
On many farms more grass and less
grain means less labor and more profit.
Keep an eye on local conditions in
determining what will be used in feed
ing.
With many farmers the filling Of the
soil with weed seeds is pure careless.

In all stock farming the manure, if
properly handled, will pay the cost Of

All kinds of poultry are marketable
during the next three months, and by
watching the market very fair prices

A little care should be taken to see

Turpentine and sulphur given in the

gaps Use a good teaspoonful of each
to pint and half of corn meal.
Be sure that the onions are thor

The suckers Of red raspberries should
be destroyed the same as weeds
In order that the work may be done
properly it is very necessary that the
farmer should exercise constant
supervision over the farm operations.
If poultry on the farm needs to be
well managed in order to be profitable,
it is reasonable to suppose that it is I'M

One of the best ways of increasing

press His Feelings.
In character the Malay is impassive.
He is certainly not demonstrative, and
never openly expresses his feelings. He
exhibits a reserve, difiidence and even
bashfulness which is in some degree at
tractive and leads the observer, says
the San Francisco Chronicle, to think
that the ferocious and bloodthirsty
character imputed TO the race must be
exaggerated.
He is very slow and deliberate in his
speech, and especially backward in in.
Producing the subject he has come to
discuss. Though he does seem to hold
the European in contempt as well as
other races, yet he is always profusely
polite when he meets one.
"Tabeh Tuan," is then his favorite
expression, which translated into plain
English means: "How are you, sir?'
II, though, he meets European who in
his opinion has done a mean action
and is not worthy Of that salute, he
will pass him with sully indifference
manifested on every feature of his
countenance.
He is lazy and not fond Of work
His favorite pastime is fishing, and a.
long as he can catch sufficient fish ht
will never hire himself out for manua
labor.
Sometimes he is the happy possessol
of three wives, and even four, and wo'
betide the man who engages in flirta
ton with them. The knife specify set

COLUMBUS NO SAINT.
The Whole Story Of the Navigator's Iii
Cloud of Falsehood.


The Whole Story Of the Navigator's Life
Cloud of Falsehood.
Who was this famous navigator. and
what were his character and aims, asks
writer in Harper's Magazine. The
common legend paints him in saintlize
and superhuman colors. No man was
SO wise, gentle, learned, studious, hui
name. To several of his recent
biographers he is without fault, a
Numa, a Washington, with even a
higher aim. With more than chivalric
austerity he prepares himself for his
rare achievements; Heaven guides him
on his way; he works miracles; sor-
rows and Affections follow him; males
tic and godlike, he passes away from
among men, without blemish and
without fault. Such he is to De Lor,
CUES, Belloy and the Able Cadoret.
lrving's delightful biography admits
his faults, but softens them into venial
errors. His hero is clothed in the fair.
est drapery Of his matchless style. The
common legend has filed all modern
histories, until the whole story of Co.
lumbus is wrapped in cloud of false
hood. And yet there is some truth in
the picture. Columbus possessed an
unrivaled strength of character and
will, mind of rare power and sagacity
He was strong as Hercules in forcing
his way into distant seas, but, unlike
Hercules, rather committed than re-
dressed wrongs. Never was there a
more striking difference than that be-
tween the traditional Columbus of the
biographers and the Columbus of true
history, of his CONTEMPORARIES.
