Farm BOYS Education,

AS one who grew to manhood on a
farm, let me say to the mothers and
fathers who read this paper: Give
your children, both boys and girls, the
best education you can afford. En-
courage them to read and study from
there earliest years. Prove to them
in your homes that farmers house
may be supplied with good books,
good magazines and good newspapers,
just as well as the house of preacher
or college professor. Teach them
there is as much room for use of the
best trained intellect on the farm as
anywhere else, that the highest edu-
cation they can get will be none toe
high for use in solving the problems
of successful agriculture.

Flies may be kept from annoying
horses by making wash of carbolic
soap and water, with a small quantity
of kerosene oil added to it. This is
sponged over the horses coat and let
dry two or three times. It's effects
remain for about three or four hours
By repeating it at intervals the flies
may be prevented from annoying the
poor beasts at this season. Another
remedy is to procure Persian insect
powder; put quantity of it in a
-four dredger or large pepper box and
dust it well into the hair. This is sure
death to flies and is harmless to ami
mails. If it is blown up into the all
of the stables at night and busted wei
upon the posts and ceiling, as well as
the animals, these will enjoy goo6
nights rest. 1t will also clear flies
and mosquitoes from rooms.

APPLES AND PEARS.
The Best Way To Pcrserve Their Flavor
When Cooked.

To save early mellow apples, core,
quarter and cut out every speck with
out peeling, boil in cider just drawn
If possible, in close-covered stone
pot very quickly without sugar, and
seal hot in glass cans. The peel
gives flavor and is easily strained
when the pulp is used. If you want
flavor in green-apple sauce or jelly,
always cook the parings in even if
you tie them in cheese-cloth by them
selves. Never add water to fruit or
sugar for fruit if its own juice can be
had. Sweet apples and mellow,
dead ripe pears baked down in a mild
oven till they. are jellied in their own
juice and sugar, make n sweetmeat
that will keep with less care than
anything else and satisfy every taste.
Line the bottom and sides of your
stove oven with common bricks laid
in loosely, set the fruit in close stone
jars and let it cook all day and night.
No fear of burning, but the steady,
moderate heat turns out lucid,
deep favored mass which is some
thing what food ought to be, Boil
jam fast; let this preserve take its
time and don't stir it. 1t is an in
suit to pear to preserve it any other
way. The delicate-looking canned
pears are insipid eating beside it.
There are just three ways of pre-
serving apples; in cans for pies, in eli
der apple sauce, and as apple butter.
Dry them in quarters or eighths, but
don't bleach them. 1t takes away
their flavor and brings the doctor
down on you. New England Farmer.

NEW ClARUS.
A Swiss village of Six Hundred People In
Wisconsin.

Without taking long journey by
land and water it is possible for the
Milwaukee lover of the picturesque to
visit as thriving Swiss village as can
be found in the old country or this.
says the Milwaukee journal. Down in
Green county, on the banks of the Lit
tie Sugar river, is little settlement of
some 600 souls, where all the customs,
habits, and traditions of Switzerland
are tenderly cherished. The stir of
the outside world rarely penetrates
this little village of New Glarus, in
spite of the fact that it is the terminus
of branch of great railroad and
that the telegraph wires are linking
it with modern life and modern
thought.
New Glarus was settled by omigrants
from the canton of Glarus, wild and
mountainous part of Switzerland. The
country was too densely populated,
and there was a great scarcity of EN-
ployment and, consequently, of the
necessaries of life. At last the scheme
of an organized emigration under the
care of the government was taken up.
and in March, 1Si5, Judge Nicholas
Duerst, aged 4S. and Endolin Streitf, a
blacksmith, were sent out to look for
a new home. They departed with
elaborate instructions as to the dis
and the purchase of new home, which
was to resemble Glarus as closely rs
possi BILE in climate, soil, and general
characteristics. From the diary kept
by Duerst during the trip (as per in-
structions) one may follow the trav-
els of these two Swiss gentlemen until
July IL of the same year they decided
to buy 1900 acres of land near Exeter.
Green county. Politics has never
trou bled the simple folk of New Glarus
From the beginning the political pref
erence of the people have been mostly
for the democratic party; two-thirds
or more of the colonists vote that way.
The old-time simple, generous, and
gennine hospitality is still practiced.
The veriest miser among the Swiss OF
New Glarus would be ashamed to have
it said that he was inhospitable. The
homely, hearty manners toward each
other and to strangers show the kind
ly spirit of the people. Not but what
they are good haters when wronged or.
affronted; real or fanced injury often
causes GOODNESS which lasts through
life. The people are intensely proud
of their home. To the Swiss American
the grand distances, the great oppor
tunities, the liberal thought. and The
public institutions of this country
seem by comparison to make the con
ditions of life in the old home appeal
narrow, mean, and unbearable. A
some have expressed it, there seem
to be hardly room there to breathe
Yet the love for the old home and it
heroic history cannot be extinguished
and next to being Americans the prid
of Swiss is to be Swiss. How lonl
the Swiss community at New Glaru
will remain distinctive as now cannd
be foretold. but judging from the hia
tory of the colonies of German-speaking
people in some of the older states it will
be safe to predict that the Swiss dialect
will exist and be spoken here 2oo years
hence, and that the people then living
will bear the stamp of the early in
t1uenceS.

Why He Could Not Marry.

He sighed as he put his feet on the
foot rest in his little room on the
North Side. 1t was cozy and comfort
able, but far from pretentious.
George! but it's lonely here some
evenings" he said. Il sit here and
read and read and listen to the noises
outside, and long for some friend to
drop in to relieve the monotony. But
they're all at home or at the theater or
the club, and sometimes Pm actually
driven to the theater to escape the
loneliness here"
"Why don't you marry?" asked the
friend he had brought home with him.
"rve thought of that" he returned
dreamily, as he critically examined his
pipe. "and I'd like to, but l don't see
how can"
Wont anyone have youp" asked the
friend with languid curiosity.
81 don't know" he replied. "rvs
never tried. Still think"
He put his pipe in his mouth and
became suddenly interested in seeing
that it didn't go out.
"You can surely find some who will
suit" suggested the friend.
"Ye'es. But I'm more or less un-
fortunate" He hesitated moment
and then went on slowly. Il know

An Investigator, who lived during
two years in tomb at Gizeb, has col
lected evidence to prove that the tools
used in working stone 1000 years ago
had jeweled cutting edges, like modern
tools. He says that the builders of the
pyramids used solid tubular tools,
straight and circular saws and many
other tools supposed to he modern.

had sunk one-tenth of an inch at each

was at least two tons. Nothing is

Lime as Fertilizer.

Clay and peat soils are especially
benefited by the application of lime,
The good effect of the application OF
quick lime to such soil, or any soil
rich in organic matter, consists in
the fact that it neutralizes organic
acids which form in such soils and
which in a free state are injurious to
vegetation, and the lime helps to con-
vert these into 5he beneficial carbonic
acid. At the same time the nitro
gen which the organic matters con
tain is liberated and rendered availa-
BILE for assimilation by plants. Crops
which like clover, turnips and grass
es contain much lime are specially
benefited by lime, therefore where
land has become clover sick lime
should be beneficial. 1t does good
to a potato crop by liberating pot
ash, especially in clay soils. We
should not use carbonate of lime to
mix with hen manure or night soil
which is to be kept some time before
being used, because lime drives of
the ammonia, most valuable part
of any manure. Gypsum (sulphate
of lime) or land plaster as it is called,
on the contrary, will retain the am
monia. London Horticultural Times.

Take the hen away, feed her we'll
and give water to drink. On coming
out of nest feed chicks ON bread
soaked in milk and squeezed dry or
give dry bread crumbs.
After few days give chicks all
they can eat, as often as they will, of
bread and milk or bread crumbs
After second day give milk or water
in shallow pans for drink. Be care

Dust with insect powder carefully.
After two weeks feed wheat spar
ingly at first, afterward all they can
eat, particularly at night; vary with
crushed corn. BE careful the chicks
are not stinted of food or they will be-
come stunted Remember that a
chick stunted in the first five weeks of
its life will never make a plump fowl,
If the hen and chicks are placed in
small coops, the latter should be clean
ed every day or second day. AS the
early chicks grow large they should
be removed from the younger ones or
the latter will be crowded and make or

Made it herself" is the remark
frequently heard from critical obser-
vers when an ill-fitting dress or wrap
is noted in an assembly or on the
promenade; and while there is but
little doubt of the general correct
ness of the assertion the reason for
it seems to be quite overlooked. 1t
is taken for granted that a home
made garment is of necessity badly
made, and the criticism is accepted
as matter of course. There is ur.

A dealer down on the desert ON his
last trip to the city for supplies found a
new brand Of canned meat which bore a
high colored designation of two lions
rampant, in token that it was of the
'slion brand" This, he thought, would
be just the thing for his Indian custom
ers, and he laid in large supply, fancy
ing that the gaudy labels would induce
an immense demand. AT first he sold
quite a quantity of the meat, but soon
noticed that there was no further de-
mand therefor. No Indian who had
bought can ever called for another.
He was puzzled to account for this,
and he opened and ate several cans him
self to ascertain whether there was any
thing the matter with tine contents. But
the meat proved to be Of good quality,
and finally. after vainly trying to per-
Buade his copper colored customers. TO
purchase more Of the delicacy, he asked
one solemn looking buck who understood
English what the trouble was. The
buck put his finger on the picture of the
lions, shrugged his shoulders and re-
marked:
"Huhl Indian no like-um dog meat!r
And no amount Of talk could persuade
him or his companions that the trader
had not laid in supply of canned dog!-

If You insist on high velocity you have
to add so much additional machinery to

strengthen its construction that YOU
destroy its mobility, while even If YOU
gain long range You are still unable tc
make use Of your most efficient proiec.
tile at it. Moreover, since the remain.
ing velocity Of its shrapnel is a true1
measure Of the value Of a gun than its
initial velocity, and the two are by no
means directly proportional, it does not
follow that we benefit as much as we
might expect by submitting to these
Disadvantages. Thus, the 12-pounder
has an initial velocity Of over ], 200 feet
per second and a remaining velocity al
5000 yards of s62 feet; while the
13-pounder, with an initial velocity or
only $50 feet, has at the same range a
remaining velocity greater by six feel
per second than that Of its rival.
One of our highest authorities on field
artillery has, indeed, recorded his opin-
ion, that, a. regards the efficiency of
shrapnel, We gain nothing by the I'LL
creased muzzle velocity Of '.the best field
gun in Europe" at all practical ranges.
Moreover, it is the attempt to squeeze
out the last few extra feet that does All
