THAT WONDERFUL LAsr NAH
Mrs. Potter Palmer Will Put the Fir
ishina Touch on the Woman's Build
ing With Hammer and Spike Of
Costly Make.

Mrs. Potter Palmer, President of
the Board of Lady Managers of the
Exposition, as already announced,
will drive the last nail used in CON-
pletion of the Woman's Building.
This nail will be furnished by the
women of Montana, and will be a
very wonderful one as is indicated
by this description of it, given by
the Helena, Montana, Independent:
The nail has been 50 made as to
form the back or cross bar of
brooch, which is to be shield bear
ing the coat of arms OF Montana re-
produced in native gold without q
trace of alloy in its composition.
The shield viii be Of gold, and the
symb ,lical figures will be made Of
the same metal but of different col
ors. The waterfall in the foreground
will be OF light colored gold sunk
into the shield, and the pillow and
the pick, standing at the foot of the
falls, will be of darker shade, as
will be the background or relief.
The wreath surrounding the escu-
tcheon will be OF native gold, and
the figures of the two men support
ing the whole on either side will also
be OF the same rich, yellow gold.
Underneath will be the scroll, bear
ing the motto of the state, "0ro y
Plata" In the two upper portions
of the wreath two Montana sapphires
will be inserted. Instead Of mere
ly engraving the figures, each will be
wrought separately and then fasten-
ed together, making the task of
shaping the brooch not only a deli
cate, but exceedingly difficult one,
and one that will require much skill
and patience.
To Mrs. j. L. Richards, of Butte,
belongs the credit of the happy idea
of making the last nail one of such
interest. In design the nail which
is being made by a Butte jeweler,
will be the counterpart of an ordi-
nary twslve-penny nail and will be
composed of three strips with silver
in the center and the gold and cop
per on either side. The nail and
brooch are distinct articles and after
the former has been driven it will be
drawn from the wood, fastened to
the brooch and the whole be pre-
scented to Mrs. Palmer.
The women of Nebraska have un.
dertaken TO furnish the hammer with
which this last nail will be driv-
en-. A description Of the hammer
has not yet been given, but it is the
intention to make 1t worthy OF the
aristocratic nail with which IL will
be brought in contact by Mrs. Pal
mer. 1t has been suggested that it
be made of native Nebraska woods,
iulaid with gold. silver and pearl.

FARM, GARDEN AND DAIRY

cannot be injured by lrampling. The
best way to add to the manure heap
is to first pass it through the bodies
OF the animals.
When making garden have tie
rows perfectly straight. Use line
for laying off the rows. BY SO doing
there will be great saving of lator
during the cultivation, as we'll as adj
ding 20 The appearance of tile gar
den.
Mistakes are sometimes valuable.
The farmers experience is gained by
mistakes more than by success. He
will carefully avoid repeating mis-
takes, but does not always take adj
vantage of the lessons that taught
him success.
Vick's Magazine suggests plan
for having apple blossoms in winter:
Get the ends of branches with
plumb flower buds and place them
in water in a warm, sunny window
and they will soon bloom. No
doubt many other kinds OF trees and
shrubs will give as good satisfaction.
The Western Rural, in view of so
many weak women, recommends
light work in the garden. "Shut up
the pill boxes and throw away the
bottles. Breathe the fresh air and
take your medicine at the end of 3
light hoe handle, and see il you don't
save doctors bills.
The value of thing lies In the de-
mand for it. Now, who in the world
demands poor butter? Create that
which is wanted and you command q
good market. Don't waste your
time with soap grease and expect to
get paid only for gilt edged article
of butter.
Give your lawn liberal applics-
ton Of wood ashes, with a bag of
super phosphate on each acre, and no
manure will be necessary. Trees
become lousy as well as the animals.
No plant seems to escape from lice
of some kind. Wood ashes used
freely around the trees, will greatly
aid in preventing attacks from all
kinds OF parasites.
The Rural Ne,o Yorker says: "a
farmer in Gavin county, Ireland, ap.
piled half ton Of salt to an acre of
oat stubble in January. In Spring
he planted potatoes on it. The po-
tatoes on this sailed lands were q
good crop and free from disease,
while those on adjoining unsalted
land, were hardly worth lifting"
The highest market during the
year for hogs is usually in June,
July and August, and those are the
very months when pork can be made
the cheapest, especially if yon have
a good clover field; but heavy
weights are not wanted then, but
moderately fat animals that will
weigh from 1870 to 200 pounds.
When the flock is eighty or hum
dred, if all the fockmasters in the
county could be got to give their ex-
perience for term of years they
would, l suppose, agree that SIS a
head profit is very generous esti-
mate. The future price of lambs
must be taken into account by any
one starting In the business now.
Everybody wants sheep; overpro-
duction will be The cry soon.
Bran and eottonseed meal are two
substances that seldom entail loss
on the farmer. Once brought on the
farm they remain, as they are nearly
as valuable on the manure heap as
for food. They contain the mineral
elements so necessary for young and
growing stock, and may be used with
advantage to the adults. Linseed
meal may also be included in the list

West toward Willmantic on the New
England road there went the other day a
strange party which typified the wrong
relations of young and old America. They
were four. father and mother. daughter
and son.
The parents were feeble and old, un-
mstakably Irish. The father was one of
those small, red. whiskered, stoop-should-
el ell men, blear eyed and slow OF move
ment, whose appearance tells OF long
years of privation, toll, thrift. At
glance you would back the man TO be
honest TO the back bone. self sacrificing,
possessed of all the virtues but illiterate
and bit slow. The mother was effaced
under veil. The daughter ana son were
fashily dressed aud quite knowing of as
pect. They didn't care to associate TO,
obviously with the old folks and had seats
on the opposite side of the car, from whence
the hard featured daughter cast the
sweeping glances OF a stern disciplinarian
at the older couple.
The old mans linen was clean, his
black coat spotless. BY and by he spat
not defensible but In him excus lble. Not
SO thought the daughter. She darted
across the car with heightened color in
her cheeks and grasped the old man
roughly by the arm. Here" she said
stop splitting on the floor. Don't you do
IL again. You hear mep'
The old man must indeed have heard
but there was no sign of 1t In his de-
meanor. He took his lesson meekly, as
became an American citizen by adoption
whose daughter holds the reins, and
thereafter peace brooded over the ill
assorted four.

life-like pictures the "Struggie of Life" Is
highly interesting. City Hail Park, Bat
terry Park and other scenes familiar TO
New Yorkers, and those showing the
darker side of life In the great city were
presented, all being quite realistic. The
principal parts were assigned TO William
Stafford, Lloyd Melville, Arthur Mercer,
Amelia Bingham and Louise Bingham.
They were all playe.l well as were those of
the others. An essential amount OF hui
NOR was furnished by Edward j. Heron
as Tommy Casey aud Aoliie Revel az

good. In it are several Inconsistencies,
but they can be readily overlooked II the
audience is not too critical. What bitches
there were in the play were probably due
to the fact that 1t was the first night.
The play will run Ia smoother manner
