Retaliation Wouldn.t Pay.

LONDON. Feb. 16.--The Globe says it
hopes British manufacturers will not al
low themselves to be prejudiced against
the Mckinley tariff. Retaliation against
the fair would be most injurious while
the Americans and Germans are trying
to take away British commerce. The
absence of British exhibits at tine fair
would do more harm than anything else,
and be confession of defeat.

eastern Russia from which thousands
Of immigrants come to this country
every week. Half dozen ships reek-

here within the past few weeks from
Brazilian ports. We have had in New
York within week over dozen cases
of small pox which was introduced BY
newly arrived immigrants. The few
victims of leprosy recently found here
had come from other countries. The
grip is plague that was brought to

scarlet fever, measles, and diphtheria,
all of which are contagious.

A SAV0RY VEAL PIE.

A veal pie is improved by adding a
little ham, say one-half pound to a
knucllle of veal. Just cover the meat
with water, put in one small onion, and
simmer one hour. Cut four potatoes ln-
to slices, cutting across the potato, and
cook them separately until they can be
pierced by fork. At the end of the
hour cut the veal from the bones and let
1t simmer au hour longer. Line deep
baking dish or tin with plain paste, aud
cut the ham into dice. Into the bottom
of the dish put a layer of potatoes, a
layer of the veal with few bits of the
ham, sprinkling of chopped parsley,
salt and pepper. When the materials
are all used, roll out the top crust and
cut hole in the centre. Lay over the
dish and press down at the edges. Bake
in quick oven until the crust is trhe
brown, thea put funnel in the opening
in the crust, and pour in hot sauce
made from an ounce of butter, two
ounces of flour, and half pint of the
broth of the meat. Season the sauce
with salt, pepper, and chopped parsley.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

A hen wants quiet while setting.
1t is good economy to feed milk to
poultry.
Stone drinking vessels are cooler than
tin ones.
Brains without industry won't pay the
mortgage off the farm.
Wheat is rich in material for growth
and stimulates egg-laying.
Young chickens especially are in
clined to crowd on the roosts; prevent
this.
The best remedy for the ravages of the
asparagus beetle is hen with a brood of
young chicks.
Breed in June if yor wish to have the
colt foaled so that both it and the dam
can be ready for new grass in the
spring.
If change is to be made in the
ratons of chicken it should be done
gradually, so that the system may have
time to adap; itself to the change.
A good part of the care necessary
with turkeys aud ducks during the next
three months is to feed them enough to
keep them coming home regularly.
1t will be more comfortable for the
fowls during the warm weather if the
heavy wooden door be taken off its
hinges and one of fine netting substi-
tuted.
fa,, JnlIor, ,,a.xx -.
the service of first-class stallion will
come back to you with interest within a
few months, in the much greater value
of the colt.
While ducks will remain all day on
the water, they should not be made to
sleep on damp floors. Plenty of straw
should be used and cold drafts should
be guarded against.
Much of the profit of the farm must
come from saving little things. In this
the chickens are good aid. Tney pick
up and turn to account many items that
would otherwise be wasted.
Eggs that have not been fcrtilized
keep the best, and for this reason if the
tSBo hiN W bV hlotSh dHd1 IL II u HOOi
plan to take away the roosters ten days
before commencing to save up the eggs.
The new crop of wheat will come up
on market more nearly bare than for
long time before. This would appear to
indicate a better price for the crop but
prophesying in such matters is uncertain
work.
While, If properly managed, the stor-
ing away of eggs at this season for SELL
ing in the winter can readily be made
profitable, there is always some risk. The
eggs do not bring as good prices as fresh
ones.
The business of poultry.raising should
never be spoken OF slightly, Those who
have tried ii know that business ability,
system and industry are essential to sue
cess. These are just the qualities de
manded for success in other lines.

CALF REARING.

A practical Strafordshre farmer, writ
ing to the British Agricultural Gazette,
says that after thirty years experience in
the rearing of calves on large scale he
has found it the most profitable branch
OF his business. 1t hardly needs to be
added that he has made business of it,
that is to say, gone about it in a sensible
and business. like manner, studying the
conditions of success, aud neglecting
nothing likely to conduce TO 1t. Some
of his experience may be useful to others,
and he has set good example worthy
of imitation in freely giving the public
the benefit of it. Calves, this gentleman
says, should never be allowed to lie out
in open pastures during the first year of
their existence, but should be brought
into yards or sheds every night and
allowed as much good old hay as they
will eat. They should also be given the
bucket the first thing In the morning be.
fore they go out. For this latter pur-
pose he mixes them cruel made of best
Scotch oatmeal, at the rate OF about a
penny-worth per day, mixed with half a
gallon of water, and given in V shaped
troughs in the open yard, not more than
ten or twelve calves being allowed to feed
together. This prevents them from fill
ing themselves with stagnant ditch water
and a lot of unsuitable green food, by
which they get distended and liable to
various ailments, such as quarter i'll, red
water, and other things. The liquid
mixture is continued up to the middle
of November, when they are brought in
from the pastures and put ON cake, due
allowance OF which during the first win
ter is indispensable to the future growth
and well doing Of every calf, whatever
it may be intended for. These few hints
may seem simple, but coming from a
successful, practical man they are thor
oughly worthy of attention. Rural

sides will secure the drainage; but where
the soil and subsoil are not favorable to
drainage, additional measures must be
taken. In the country in which l re-
side, gravel road has been made for
twenty miles, near the Mississippi River
bluffs. This road is on soil and a
subsoil decidedly gravelly, giving splen-
did drainage. This gravel road is now
eighteen years old, and has proved satis-
factory. The only means taken to Sc
cure drainage was to crown the roadbed
little in low places. To make gravel
road in this way over the greater part
of the same country would be waste of
money, for in most places the soil is
black prairie loan, and the snbsoil
tenacious clay.
1t has been found quite satisfactory
in most localities, having black surface
soil and clay subsoil, to lay drain of
tile along each side, near the edge of
the roadbed. This has been found a
better location than near the middle of
the roadway. The office of the tile is
to carry off water brought up from be-
low rather than water sinking In from
above. In some localities it is necessary
to use three drains-one line of tile be-
meath the center of the roadway, and
one under each ditch at the side. 1t
seems unnatural to put the tile under the
side bitches, but this location has been
proved best.
When the roadbed is to be graveled
or macadamized, the crowning earth
foundation should be nicely smoothed
and then rolled until quite solid. 1t Is
we'll, also, in this case to put the clay
subsoil from the bitches on to the sur
face. When rolled, it makes hard,
smooth surface, almost impervious to
water, and over which will flow, Oft TO
the bitches at the sides, the rainwater
that may sink through the gravel or
macadam. When the surface is to be of
earth only, the clay subsoil should be
kept underneath, and the natural soil be
placed on top. The surface soil will
usually afford much better drainage than
the subsoils, and make u better road
surface. e.-American Agriculturist.

Ered Just right
Liver, Stomach, and Bowels, by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
do it in just the right way, too
by using Natures own methods.
That's why they're better than the
dreadful, old fashioned pills, with
their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're the smallest and the cas-
lest to take; only one little Pellet
is needed for gentle laxative
three for a cathartic. They cleanse
and regulate the system thoroughly
but it's done easily and naturally.
Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of
the Liver, Stomach and Bowels are
prevented, relieved, and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned. You pay only for value
received.
Something else, that pays the
dealer better, may be offered as
"iust as good" Perhaps it is, for
him, but it can't be, for you.
