MANNER OF LAYING SOD WALL.

eight years before needing renewal,
and will cost about $40 for this size
barn, saving of some $3.50 over shing-
ling. After the thatch has settled for
one year, the danger from fire is quite
as small as if rooted with shingles, and
insurance companies will very readily
assume risks at just the same rates for
thatched as tor the shingled buildings.
For sodding, cut the sods to uniform
size of 9X2S inches, and laying the first
layer crosswise, place the next above it
lengthwise, and continue the entire
wall in this manner. This binds the
wall firmly together. In building,
have plenty of fine dirt at hand, say a
couple of loads, to fill in the loose
spaces between the sods. The method
OF placing the sods will be plainly un-
derstood from the accompanying en-.
craving, which represents section of
the sod wall in course of construction.

A MODEL THATCHED AND SOD BARN.
To illustrate the principle we give a
drawing of a ombination frame, sod
and thatched barn, which combines
utility with cheapness. The structure
is 60X4S feet and - feet high to the
ridge point, but its size can of course
be varied to meet different require
ments. The sod walls are feet high
and 2S inches thick. The doorway
figured in the engraving is ii feet high
and IL feet wide, closed by two swing
ing doors This allows load of hay
to be driven into the barn and un-

In building this barn light timber
frame was first erected. supports 6x6

sides at intervals of 10 feet, as shown

ENGLlSH WALNUTS.
When Fresh They Are n Nutritious and
Healthy Article of Diet.

When Fresh They Are n Nutritious and
Healthy Article OF Diet.
There are many varieties OF these
nuts. such as the oval, round. double,
large and small fruited, early and late,
tender, thin.shelled and hard thick
shelled. An almost huskless variety
occurs in the north of China. The
larger portion of the walnuts consumed
in England are OF foreign growth, and
average in quantity about two hundred
and fifty thousand bushels. The bulk
OF these come from France and Bel
gium, and small quantities from Ger
many, Holland and Italy.
Bordeaux is one of the largest export
ing ports in the world, perhaps the
largest for walnuts; and small quanti.
ties are now sent from Chilli to Europe
The culture of the so-called English
walnut, which, by the way, is not an
English tree at all, but native of the
orient and OF central and eastern Asia,
from whence IL was early introduced
into Europe, is now diffused over Italy,
from the Alps to the valleys of Sicily.
II Is thought, however, that the mum
ber OF cultivated walnut trees in Italy
is diminishing, as the demand for the
timber is increasing, being in great de.
mand by the cabinet maker.
Persons with weak digestions will do
well to bear i'm mind Mr.. Simmonds'
warning that walnuts, as long as the
skin can be easily removed from them
are nutritious and healthy article Of
diet; but when they become dry. so
that they can not be easily peeled,
they are indigestibe.
Walnuts in the shell yield about one
third their weight of picked kernels,
which are the crumpled cotyledons or
seed leaves In some northern
districts, particularly in Piedmont,
walnut trees have always been
held in high estimation for the
production of oil, which, when newly
made, has very agreeable taste, and
can be employed in cookery as well as
In the preparation Of varnish
The walnut grows abundantlv in
Kashmir, Nepal and other parts OF In
dia, where the fruits are largely used.
1t forms also an important article of
consumption in Japan, quantities being
eaten in raw state. They are also |
much used for making kind of con-
fection, by cracking and removing the |
shell without hurting the kernel, which |
is afterward coated with white sugar, |
thus making an attractive and agreea-
bic sweetness.
The walnut also furnishes to Japan
bland oil, used for domestic purposes.
In China 1t seems to be pressed for oil,
as in some years over twelve thousand
tons are exported from the port of
Tientsin In the year. The walnut is ex.
tensively cultivated in the Puniab,
among the Himalayas and in Afghanis-
tan, large annual supply being
brought to the plains of India by the
kabuli and other traders from the hills.
There are several well-known forms of
this nut met with, the soft-shelled kind
OF kashmir and Chamba being con-
sidcred the best,-Gardeners' Chronicle.

BLAINE AND HARRISON.

Not Be Candidate.
Mr.. Blaine is not reaching a vigorous
old age, frosty but kindly. Recurrent
illnesses sap his physical strength and
confirm the hypochondriac tendency of
his mind. The buoyancy and audacity
of his earlier years are lacking, and
since 1884, as was discovered i'm his
Florence letter concerning the nomina-
tion OF 1855, he breads a trying ordeal,
of which there can be none greater to
"a high-strung organization than per-
sonal candidacy for the Office of presi-

Haven't you ever noticed this? If not,

poles, one above the other, but prefer
a roosting place with a foot-path or
board leading up to the roosts, and all
to be on a level and far enough apart
to avoid quarreling and soiling one
another's plumage. i shall try To
sketch my idea. The roosts are made
of fouI-inch Stats, not round poles.

Certain young women in the High
School of Woburn. Mass, object to
the physical culture exercises IN school;
and their objection is said to be due to
their unwillingness to be deprived Of
their corsets during the exercise hour.
The young women Of the Bay State
are notably Independent, and it seems
to us that they have an inalienable
right to wear corsets when and where
they please, subject to the consent of
their parents or guardians. If the
maidens Of Woburn chose to emanci-
pate themselves for time from the
age Of steel, well and good; and if not,
why, welcome chains and slavery

The many friends Of the esteemed

that anthony has been severely casti-
gated by Judge jenkins Of the United
States District Court in Milwaukee.
Mr.. Comstock, having induced a man
to sendhimimproper literature through
the mails, with view to the offenders
prosecution, Judge Jenkins remarked
that ''the practice of fraud and lying
was worse offence than the circula-
ton Of obscene literature II and fur
ther said /: .'Mr. Comstock may be
able to reconcile his conduct with the
laws Of God and morality, but this
Court cannot do So" This is very
sad; but probably it will not interfere
with the excellent work in which the
esteemed Anthony Comstock employs
his energies.

Department has been experimenting

that lettuce is especially susceptible to

it can be grown for market in two

seem likely. That, however, would
not necessarily initiate against the
