The citizen Of taste who looks at the
new part Of the Museums of Natural
History in New York is filed with
wonder that the old part was ever per-
mitted to be built in city where the
word architecture has meaning. His
comfort is that in time the necessary
additions to the structure will probably
surround the older part and hide its
enormity from the public view.

The destruction Of the steamship
Elder, which it is now thought will be

was uncomfortably narrow, and was
due to the admirable life-saving ser

Homemade Bee Feeders,

The first is a quart basin of cheap
tamped ware with a 114-inch hole cut in
the bottom, into which q tube is SOL
dered. The top of the tube comes to
within one-half inch of being even with
the top Of the basin. Now open the hole
in your honey board, Or remove packing
and cut a small hole in the quilt, over
which place the basin so that the bees
can come up through the tube.
Make a tube of coarse paper and push
it into the tin tube to aid the bees in
climbing up. Fill the basin with sirup
as far as the top of the tube, place a float
of cloth Or anything to keep the bees
from drowning. Now cover the basin
over with paper and make it as warm as
you please with packing. The bees will
come up and take that feed in cool
weather, and no openings have been
made to allow the much needed heat of
the hive to escape.
The other feeder is made in this way:
Take a Mason quart jar. Break the
porcelain lining out Of the cover: punch
a dozen or more small holes in the v
with an awl. Now get a piece of pine
board Is by 4 inches square; with an ex-
tension bit bore a hole through it large
enough to receive one-quarter inch of
the top of the jar. When the cover is
on, fill the jar with thin sirup. Screw
the perforated cover on tight; place
the block over the hole in the honey
board or quilt; insert the jar and insert
the block; replace packing, etc. The
bees will suck the contents out of the
jar in one or two days, though of itself
it will not run ont. I think this is an
improved method of using the Mason jar

died in Bellevue hospital, New York,

en- clothing he got ''some of the stuff
under his finger nails, and blood poison
ing set in. It is quite probable that
while cleaning the clothing the young
tailor got infectious microbes of some
kind under his finger nails and SO
caught the contagion that resulted in
erysipelas and death, but it is more than
improbable that the poison was sheep

from the person who had worn and

tailor took it in hand to clean it.

HAULING IN FODDER EARLY,
An Opinion on the Fermentation Of
Cornstalks.

An Opln1On on the FermentatiOn OF
Cornstalks.
The common objection to drawing
stalks in early is that they will heat in
NOW Or stack. If piled in large heaps
soon after being cut the mass will rot
down and be good for nothing except
manure But some fermentation is not
Objectionable if not carried too far. It
In a way cooks the stalks, and even
when it results in some loss of nutrition
it makes what remains more palatable,
and probably also more easy to be di-
gested. We have often seen cattle in
winter greedily picking out the stalks
that had become overheated in the NOV,
and when fed were still moist from the
heating.
Some of these stalks were mildewed.
and we feared that they might, if fed to
COWS bearing young, cause abortion, but
we later abandoned that theory as a mis-
take. It was certain that the COWS liked
best these mildewed because heated
stalks, and in the matter of feed we
have a good deal of faith in a cows
Judgment as to kind if not as to guam
tity. Probably the fluids that aid diges-
ton have power to change the food, I'M
less it has a pungent odor like turnips
or cabbages, S that in the stomach the
mass is resolved into nearly the same
kind Of mass, whatever the food, and
only differing as to the kind and amount
of nutrition it originally contained.
There is, we believe, less danger from
excessive and injurious heating of fresh
stalks, dried as much as they can be
without exposure to rain and freezing,
been exposed to atmospheric changes for
several months. The green stalks will
heat if piled up, and in hot weather will
soon rot down. But we believe it DOS
sible to get them III barns or stacks
dried as much as they can be without
exposure to rain, and by mixing dry
straw with them keep the whole in bet
ter condition than is possible any other
way.
If the bundles of stalks are made
small a layer Of straw between each
layer of bundles will absorb all the
moisture that the stalks give off in fer
menting. The straw itself thus sub
jected to heating will become more pala-
table, and will be eaten by stock which
will refuse dry straw from the stack.
Straw is plentiful at this season on most
large farms. There can be no better
way to use it than in helping to save the
corn fodder in good condition.
in the heating Of cornstalks that have
not been exposed to rain or freezing
there is much less likelihood of the more
injurious fungous growths that come
from fermentation of cornstalks whose
nutrition has largely been washed out
of them. The rich juices Of the ripened
%cornstalks act partially as a preserva-
tive, and at any rate the richer feed that
stock gets from these sweeter stalks
maintains vigorous health and enables
the animal to resist the fungous poisons
that depend on physical exhaustion to
make them effective. A we'll nourished
animal a easily resist danger from i'm
proper feeding for d time that in a
starved animal might soon prove fatal.

A Use for Worn Stockings.

Very pretty little Jackets for babies can
be made from the legs of silk and wooden
stocking when the. feet are worn out. The
stitches that confine the legs are carefully
picked out and the legs joined together
down the back of the jacket. The sleeves
are cut from the narrower parts and sewed
in. The jacket is then edged around with
ascalloped edge of worsted or knitting silk,
which is started by drawing a single Gro
Chef through the edge;of the material. A
cord and tassel made from the same is run
through the neck.-Household.

RAISING
Methods Adopted by a Successful Illinois
Sheep Raiser.

Methods Adopted by a Successful Illinois
-. Sheep Raiser.
Having made the purchase, the first
thing to be done on Naching home is to
sort over the bunch and divide them
into lots, each flock being composed of
animals of the same size and age as near
as possible. Under ne circumstances do
we permit any ewes with the wethers,
but keep them entirely separated.
Having assorted the sheep, the next
consideration is one of feed. If possible
I would have the sheep run on green
pasture of some kind-clover or blue
grass through the summer and rye
pasture during the winter months. If
they are not accustomed to the green
feed it is necessary to commence very
slowly, turning them in, say, half an
hour in the morning and the same intle
evening the first day, and increasing the
time of feeding half an hour each day
until any danger is passed.
When they are fully accustomed to
the green feed 1 then with
grain in the same way, preferring corn,
and allowing about n peck to each
hundred head the first day and increas-
ing gradually until the sheep are on full
feed, but I never give them more than
they will eat up clean. If any of the
corr is left in the trough it is cleaned
out at once and a less amount given
them in the next feed. They get their
grain morning and evening and have
free access at all times to plenty of pure
water. In addition to this treatment Il
trough is kept in the shed or pasture
with a mixture of three parts salt and
one part sulphur, which is accessible to
the sheep at all times.
1 find that the sheep fatten rapidly on
good cheat OF mill screenings fed twice
a day, giving them as 0 as accus-
toned to it as much as they, will eat up
clean. There is only one other point
which should be carefully watched, and
that is, keep the sheep absolutely quiet.
Avoid all running of them with a dog,
and never under any circumstances al
low anything to disturb them while
feeding.
l might add also that the very first
thing which is done to the sheep on
reaching the farm is to give them a
thorough dipping in tobacco juice. No
chance of an outbreak of scab is taken,
but every sheep which passes through
the stockyards or which is shipped in a
stock car is dipped as soon as the farm is
reached.
The whole question Of profitable sheep
feeding is, in my mind, summed up in a
very few words-regularity in size, reg
ularity in age, regularity in hours of
feeding and an entire absence Of dis
turbing infuences.-William P. Speak
man in Breeders Gazette.

Size in Hackneys,

So far as we have seen, size in the
hackney, is what has to be specially
studied during the next few years. With
the hackney we have no measure Of ca
pacity, borrowed from horse racing, and
we know Yorkshire cobs which would
carry a twenty stone grazier twenty
miles out and home. But we are after
something different nowadays; we want
harness hackneys, horses with style and
step, all that is snowy about them in
front of the saddle girth. We have a
difficulty in getting these big enough,
and studbook rules will not slow us to
