a Good TEST OF THE EYE.

A trick that is going the rounds
Just now is to measure BY the eye
the distance to which you must
push away the central one Of three
silver dollars, side Ity side. their
circumference touching, 30 that
the distance from the lower edge Of
the central coin, 90 removed, shall
be equal to the dist nee apart Of
the outer edges Of the two other
coins. You will probably do -
every one else does--put the coins
side by side and Push the mid
die one upward along the table UNI
til you think you has'. done . rash
thing BY pushing it % far. When
you measure you win find out.
It's an odd perversity Of the eye.

poor roads. From reliable sources
II b learned that . ton can be NOV.

It b easily seen how much greater

ica because Of the better roads
there.
In New Jersey, in one county,
where only forty miles Of such road
has been built, the value Of land
increased enough to pay the ex-
pense without increasing the rate Of
TAXATION. In Ohio, where the sys
tenn has been adopted, the farms
adjoining have increased 90 per
acre IN value. Such IN increase
from the same cause in Ontario
county would raise the value Of
farms %, 500, 900; In Indiana, where
macadam roads have been built,
there 10 . large increased demand
fox bugg;es aud wagons. In short,
in every locality where these i'm
proved roads have been built, there
has been IN increase In the value ol

The opposition to the expenditure
Of money to make better roads
does not come from the cities which
would have to pay nearly al the
expense, but fron the farmer.
Both country and city would b

In the same perio< the capital m

,MOLASSES FOR CATTLE.

The well-known medical journal,
the Lancet, offers the suggestion
that the agriculturists might make
more use Of sugar for feeding and
fattening cattle. The farmer could
well afford to treat his beasts more
literally with saccharine additions
to the usual food. and our contem-
perary holds that he would find an
advantage in doing so. 1t has
been ascertained that sugar exer-
cises . beneficial effect upon cows
in regard to both favor and quality
of their milk. 1t also improves
pigs, and sheep thrive upon it when
it is mixed with the ordinary pro-
vender. All animals are partial to
| it, and. in the case Of horses, sleek
ness Of skin is thought to be pro-
duced BY saccharine dietary.
In this country, giving animals
sugar or molasses with their fsod
was commenced after the abolition
Of the sugar duties in 1874, and 10
now common enough, though only
| to small extent, and is capable Of
vast development, now that the
prices are SO low. Much Of the
utility Of beats (mangolds) in feed
| ing is due to the four or i've per
cent. on sugar it contains. Sugar
| or molasses will induce cattle to
eat all sorts Ut matter which they
would otherwise reject, such - in
different hay, or cut straw mixed
with roots. The flesh Of pigs part
lily fed ON sugar has been proved to
be unusually fine. Farmers gener-
ally are quite unaware Of the won
derfully low prices now prevalent.
West India molasses, Of course,
varies in its constitution, but prob
ably contains over 40 per cent. Of
cane and 20 per cent. Of grape SUI
Igar-say 60 per cent. of saccharine.
It is thus, for the farmers purpose,
worth about two-thirds the price Of
sugar. It is also convenient in use,
IS it does not require to be dis
solved before mixing with roots,
chaff, hay, etc. Various receipts
have been given, the usual quanti-
ty suggested being one quart d
m0lasses day for . store. and two
quarts for . fatting beast. This
should be mixed with cut chat,
cake, mangold, ETC., and turned
over and over . few times, leaving
it for few hours, TO allow the SUI
gar to be thoroughly absorbed, and
in addition, . slight degree Of fer
mentation to be set up.-NoFth

unhitch him from the vehicle and
then hitch up again, or almost any
way to get his mind on, something
else. Whipping or scolding always
does harm. The treatment sh0ald-

HOW A CBEoLE COOKS RICE

"A . winter vegetable rice can
not be too highly commended, and
to the economical soul Of FRANCHISE
its cheapness IS q large recommen-
dation. It is an inevitable dinner
dish with the Creoles all the dusky
danes de cuisine know how to cook
the pearly grains SO that each
stands separate from the other, yet
is tender to the heart.
To serve simply boiled rice mold
ed attractively is q task daily &C
complished to perfection by any
Creole anywhere. The usual serv-
ing shows . sodden, pasty mass,
more like illymade starch than any
thing else, and about Is nutritious
and palatable. The Creole knows
that to properly boil rice it should
not be covered when cooking; that
it must be thoroughly picked over,
washed in three waters, and every
imperfect and discol0red grain
cast aside. She puts it to boil
in plenty Of boiling water, allows
enough for the grains to play about
freely, and adds salt in the proper
ton Of . teaspoonful to q cup Of
raw rice. She then let's it boil
twenty minutes; test several grains
to see il they are tender through.
Then she removes it from the fire,
puts it into . colander to drain,
shakes it we'll until nearly dry. puts
it into . nuted mold, without pack
ing too tightly, sets it where it will
keep hot without sc0rching, and
when ready to serve she turns it up
on q hot dish. She knows that rice
should never be stirred, but that it
may be tossed lightly with . fork.
Cooked thus FRANCHISE serves il
with her gnmbo, her fricasses and
her grillades Is well as with butter
and sugar for the midday meal Of
les petites.
A very important factor ie rice
IN the soups maigre with which the
fervent Creole keeps her fast days,
During the lenten season she ab'
jures meats and serves ~ chic
among many potages her liz ~

For this she washes four heapine
tablespoons Of rice through tire,

The steady settlement of lands in Montana

As a route to the Northwest the Northern PACT
