IM1rAroRs AND 1mposrERs.

The unequaled success of ALLcocK's Po-
RoUs PLAsTERs as an external remedy has in
duced INSCRIPTIONS parties to offer limitations
winch they endeavor to sell on the reputation
OF ALLCoCK's. 1t is an absurdity to speak of
them in the same category as the genuine po-
rous plaster. Their pretensions are un-
founded their vaunted merit unsupported by
facts, their alleged superiority to or equality
with ALLcoCK's a false pretense.
The ablest practitioners and chemists and
thousands of grateful patients unite in declar-
ing ALLoocK's POROUS PLAsTERs the best
external remedy ever produced.
Beware of limitations, and do not be deceived
by Misrepresentation. Ask for AILcocK,s. and
let no solicitation OF explanation induce Won TO
accept substitute.

WASHING COTTON DRESSES.
In washing colored cotton dresses and
aprons, the greatest possible care should
be used to prevent their fading.
If any of the prepared powders for
making washing easier are used for
white clothes, prints, cambrics, ect..
should be washed in an entirely separate
water. No chemical preparations
should be used about them. and only the
necessary amount of soap to remove the
dirt.
They should be rinsed and starched di-
rectly after washing and hung up to
dry; so treated the colors will remain
clear and good much longer than if al
lowed to lay around wet several hours.
For black and white, green, or any
delicate color that is liable to fade or
run, in is best to salt the washing and
rinsing water we'll.
The freezing of colored clothes is con-
sidered injurious BIS old housewives; it
certainly affects the starch if not the
color.
When buying colored wash goods al
ways avoid peacock blues and greens.
the crushed shades, and anything but
standard colors that are pretty sure to
wash well, for dingy faded garments
look badly even for kitchen work.

Overheated Horses,

We have said that horses should have
frequent drinks Of cold water when
working hard in the hayfelds. 1t has
also been advised in these columns that
the polls Of the horses should be shaded
and kept wet by means of sponges, says
The Farmers Review. These precau-
tions will do much to prevent overhead
ing, but it may be well to give some ad-
vice as to what should be done should
horse .'give out" during the busy sea-
son. The symptoms Of this trouble are
probably well known to most of ourread-
ers. The sweat suddenly dries, the horse
stops or staggers, and if forced to con-
tinue working commences to pant and
blow, with every other, evidence of dis
lress plainly noticeable. The tanks rise
and fall as seen in horse with heayes,
and unless something is done speedily
the poor animal will go down and in
many cases die. The horse should be
embarrassed whenever there is the slight
est symptom Of overheating Take him
to cool, shady place where the air is
felt and at once give him stimulant,
be1C4 c1o o4NShC4 q OouCO5 (CI WHISKY U
ounces), nitrous ether ounces, water
Q pint, at one dose. At the same time
he should be sponged all over with cold
water and have cold water dashed on
his head continuously. If very bad, it
will be well to rig up a barrel on high
shelf, then put faucet in it, to which
attach piece of hose pipe. Tie the lat
ter to the bride, then fill the barrel with
water, turn the faucet and allow the wa
ter to run in steady stream upon the
horses head. The water should be kept
running for hours until the animal has
regained strength, which in some cases
is not for day or more. Where there
is supply of ice at hand this will be
found of great service. Break it up fine,
place it in a sack and keep this ice poul-
tice on the back Of the horses head until
he is well. For few days afterward
give dram of inter in each gallon of
drinking water,

The Chinese diplomatic service has

some of those in San Francisco, to make
out the exact relationship between the
Chinese Six Companies in California and
the imperial government. The principal
officials of these companies are appolnt-

quasi official jurisdiction that is as mys-
ferrous to Americans as it is potential

Double Petunias.

One of the charms of the double petu-
MIA is perhaps found in the fringed or
laci1iated edges of the petals, and it is
something to rejoice over that this char
acter seems In no danger of being elm
mated. There are two double varieties
of petunias which have in market flower
producing establishments become ex-
ceedingly popular. Those are the pure
white and the rose. There are either
several varieties nearly Identical or else
the same sorts have got into commerce
under diverse names. All the varieties
are easily propagated. Some of the
uetuniaa do well as trellis plants.

EMBDEN GOOSE.

| The profit of this business is largely
dependent on the price of grain, etc.
Each goose should average 20 goslings
per year. Allowing that the goslings
average 10 pounds, the produce from
each goose would be 200 pounds, and l
have sold at an average price of 20 cents
per pound for several years in the Bos-
ton market, which would give $40 per
goose. There is a great difference in
geese, and I only save the best layers.

varieties of China, Brown and White,
although hardy, are not large enough
and do not make pounds enough Of flesh
for the early market. The writer has
been quite successful with two crosses,
those made by mating an African gan
der and Emblem geese and then crossing
the young geese with a pure African
gander. The most perfect geese are the
pure bred African, as they mature ear
ier and will lay more eggs while young,
and they are very vigorous and hardy.
1t is usual to raise all Of them that are
Matched.
The Toulouse, though large breed Of
geese, are not quite as hardy. They are
fully as good layers as the African, but
will not take on flesh quite as fast when
fatting for the early market.
The Embden, sometimes called the
Bremen, although not quite as large as
either Of the other two varieties, have
the advantage of being pure white, with
yellow bill When picked, their flesh
is very white and will sell readily, yet
they are not as good layers as the others
mentioned, seldom laying more than 10
or 10 eggs to clutch. The African or
Toulouse will lay from 10 to 20. Every
gosling may be regarded as worth 81 as
soon as it is two days old. In the cross
mentioned above an improvement is
gained in the number of eggs, marked
improvement in the color of the flesh,
and the green goose for early market, if
well fatted, will sell very readily.
Keep the goose laying as long as she
will; then she will Line her nest and want
to sit. Break her up. and in about a week
she will lay again. After she finishes
that clutch allow her to sit and hatch.
Then let her and the gander run with
the young, for both will guard them with
care and the goose grow strong again.
