Davy Crockett's Beat.

Il once saw Dayy Crockett clean up
a crowd Of crack Shots, said Judge
Asa Musgrove, one of the early path
finders" VINO is en- route to his home
in Northern Indiana. at was in 1884,
shortly before the outbreak of the
war between Texas and Mexico. l
was in Santa Fe, n. NJ. A party of
a dozen or more were shooting at a
target with rifles, when a stranger
rode up, threw his leg across the
pommel Of his saddle, and watched
the sport. He had a long rifle
strapped across the back of his saddle,
one of those old-fas hiODed affairs,
heavily Ornamented with silver. He
was inclined to criticise the shooting,
and was invited to set the pace. He
replied that he never thrOWed away
any ammunition, but that if they
would put up their crack shot he
would shoot with him for ten Next
can dollars. The crowd agreed, and
gum as his opponent dubbed it.
Perhaps y'd like t. raise the bet?'
said the stranger, as he ambled up to
the crowd. 1t was doubled, then
trebled. He then offered to bet his
gum against that Of his opponent.
The wager was accepted, and the
stranger brought his rife to his
shoulder. The muzzle 'wobbled'
badly, and someone cried out that he
was going tOshoot a circle around the
target. The stranger lowered his
gun and offered to wager his horse
against forty Mexican dollars on the
result. His proposition was promptly
accepted, and he once more brought
the gingerbread gum so his shoulder.
But il did not 'wobble' this time. He
put bullet in the exact center Of
the target, then shot two more
through the same hole, winning cas-
lily. AS he rode off with the spoils
someone cried out, asking his name.
'Davy Crockett came the reply, and
the party adjourned to the nearest
saloon without another word p

removed and the little corner space
thrown into that room. Glass panels
are put into the outside doors to light
this passage.
The new kitchen being remodeled,
the old one may have partition run
through it, making a good-sized bed
room, library, or breakfast-room, with
a passage leading into the back hall
thus formed where back stairs are
now built, having closets underneath.
This room is used for a temporary
dining-room, while the old dining
room is remodeled. A middle parti-
ton is put in with sliding doors, and
a door put through into the hall at
the foot of the stairs. The old cup
boards are removed from the Chin
ney corners, the mantel renovated
and a bay window built on at the
end. A neat dining-room Is thus

made back Of the stairs, and double
window in this part of the hall form
ing a coy little reception-room or
sewing-room. The parlor is changed
very slightly, folding-doors being
placed opposite those in the sitting
room. If these door frames are made
SO as to carry the woodwork up to
the ceiling and false beams are put
up overhead, it will panel off this
room to advantage, which effect will
be heightened by draperies and fine
balustrade. With suitable decOra-
tions the interior should suit even
faStidiOuS tastes. The outside Of the
building can be greatly improved by
building veranda across the hall and
parlOr with carriage entrance Gig. y
at the end, through which the drive
is carefully laid out and grayeled.
The roof is extended, forming a jet
eighteen inches wide all around, put
ting brackets below, an effect like a
cornice being carried down to the
level of the secOnd-StOrY window caps.
A gable is added to the main roof
over the front door. Lay walks to
the porches, make few additions of
shrabbery to the grounds, and home
is now furnished at a little cost that
is far more desirable than new cot
tage, whose main characteristic might
be an effort to appear quaint with no
justifying semblance OF age.

Chinese Babies.

When a Chinese baby is a month
old it is given a name. Its head is
also shaved for the first time-a cere-
mony which is called 'munefut" and
is made the occasion of great rejOic-
ing in rich families. All members of
the family are present in their holt
day attire and the baby to be shaved
is clad in light red garment.
The hair that is removed is wrapped
in paper and carefully preserved.
After the barber has performed his
task an aged man-WhO is hired for
this purpose and receives small
compensation lays his hands upon
the head OF the little one and ex-
claims, Long may you live!" Those
present thereupOn sit down to great
feast, of which even the little hero
of the day receives his share in the
shape Ct tiny piece Of the rice

grandmother All who have made
presents of clothing, bracelets, ETC.,

On this day the infant is also pre-
sentt d with a red bed, a low chair of
the same color and cap upon which

ments representing Buddha or eight

room was appended in the rear, being
furnished with milk and cheese cup
boards and other furniture. A stOop
made way of exit as the rear, where
a semblance Of driveway led to the
barns.
How to repair such an old house
with the least Inconvenience while
living within, is sometimes a puzzle.
In this case, says the American
Agriculturist, the best way is to put
on the rear porch first Gig. a, as it
will be convenient to- work under
and roomy for the temporary storage
of furniture. The washroom is next
partitioned off, making a good-sized
pantry with plenty of shelving, put
ting in a window at the end. A
closet and cupboard are made in
the corner near the chimney, and
running water, sink and row of tubs,
equip the other end Of the small but
convenient kitchen. When this is
done the door, with it's framework,
leading into the old kitchen may be

made, leaving a comfortable sitting
room in front. The only carpentry
to be done in this is the making Of
folding-doors into the. hall. Having
this entire half Of the house in order,
the rear is again attacked. Building
wall in the middle line Of the small
bedroom opening into the hall, the
end of this space is fitted into three
closets, as shown in the plan, and the
remaining space thrown into the
hall. The old partition between the
two bedrooms back of the parlor, is
then removed. a more convenient
bedroom is thus made. An alcoye is

also boosted Of two small closets, one
on either side of the fireplace, and
the only ones in the house. The
fragrant and appetiizng kitchen
odors found ready entrance at two
side doors. These doors were an ey-
idence of the stable equilibrium and
well-balanced symmetry necessary,
according to the architects mind, in
designing the house, and no doubt
prevented many collision between
the cook and the children. When
the cook with the roast entered the
dining-room she could send the
frOlicking children into the sitting
room through the other en-
trance. The kitchen had been de-
spoiled of its capaciOus brick oven by
an earlier reformer, leaving four
straight walls, exempt from conyen-
fences, except stairway to the eel
lar under the stairs midway of the
hall, and, instead of kitchen accom-
modatiOns, a large storage and wash

Sheep Scab Cured.

Kerosene emulsion has been found
by the Souuh Dakota Experiment
station to be an effective remedy for
sheep scab. The scab is caused by a
small mite. This insect is very hard
TO kill as is shown by the fact that
two specimens put in solution SO
per cent. alcohol showed signs of life
1Cr nine and fourteen minutes re-
SpectiYelY. The emulsion was made
by dissOlVing ten pounds Of hard soap
IN twenty gallons Of soft water heated
20 the boiling point, after which five
gallons Of kerosene were added. The
mixture was then pumped briskly
through spraying pump into the
vessel. The violent agitation caused
the materials to emulSify in about
five minutes. After standing a few
minutes the kerosene about pint in
all, rose to the top Of the emulsion
and was taken off. The emulsion
was diluted by the addition OF forty
five gallons OF water, making about I
per cent. of kerosene in the solution.
Care was taken not to dip the sheep
while free oil was floating on the sur
race. Seven sheep was dipped. The
animals were in all stages Of affection
by the scab, some almost naked from
its effects and barely able to walk
Although the sheep dried off slowly
not the slightest damage was done
the wool, in fact the emulsion seemed
to have cleansing properties On ex-
animation twenty-four hours after
dipping, the sheep showed no live
mites. Two days after the first dip
ping one Of the worst infested ami
nals was examined closely with a
pocket microscope and only one live
mite was found. The cost Of the dip
is not large

Erowering Bulbs for the window.

Freesias. Hayacinths, Tulips. Ber-
muda Lilies, and CallaS are the favor
tie bulbs for window culture, and
they will amply repay in beautiful and
fragrant bloom all the trouble and
expense they make Some Of the
other bulbs, not SO well known as
those named, are fully as desirable
and, in some situations do better.
The Albums are Of this class. They
will grow and blossom under most
unfavOrable conditions, simply re-
quiring a moderate amount Of heat,
air. water, and light. CalochortuS or
Butterfly tulips are not so we'll known
for window culture as some other
bulbs, but they are grand flowers for
she window, retaining their beauty
for long period. The varieties of
Narcissus, especially Polyanthus pa
per white) and Poeticus poets Mar
cissus) are desirable bulbs for window
culture.
A well-known, but often forgotten,
point ia bulb culture is that after

Changes in Sheep Husbandry.

1t is well to contrast the present
status Of our sheep industry with
what it was few years ago, and then
to consider the causes that led to the
changes which have so readily and
timely given relief to the depressed
situation. If the signs Of the times
are properly read, the next few years
will witness the most important
changes in the financial and social
side Of the agricultural question in
this country If the small farmers
with few sheep can obtain salts
factory results, as they do now, IN
competition with the large farmers
they will hold on to their land, if
perhaps a few acres, and stop the
absorption Of small holdings by the
larger landowners. This competing
Of small farms OF the East with the
virgin soils Of the West in general
farming, in the production of corn
and wheat, is impossible. This I'M
equal contest has resulted disas-
trously, but with the central. con-
trolling markets at the very door of
the Eastern farmer he can compete
in special products like mutton.

Of Interest to Dairymen.

There are three special lines of
dairying, and from these it:WiH gem
orally pay the dairyman to choose
some one and follow it steadily,
rather than to combine the different
branches, says Hoard's Dairyman.
The three divisions are: The retail
trade or shipment of milk, the manu-
facture of butter and the manufac-
ture of cheese. The COW that is the
best for one Of these is not the best
for the other two. and, consequently,
the stock should be selected in the
first place with particular reference
to the branch of business that is to
be followed. The man who has a
specially good butter herd cannot af-
ford to furnish milk to a cheese fac
tory, nor to ship his product to a city
to be SOLD with low grade milk from
all sources. Find out what you want
to do before you begin to build your
herd, and then follow that purpose
steadily, and you will be apt to come
out all right.

Fertilizers for Orchards.

A bulletin issued by the Agricul-
tural College of Michigan treats the
subject of fertilizers for orchards as
follows GAS a fertilizer we have
made use of unleached wood ashes.
On most soils no other fertilizer need
be used for number of years, but
on light or exhausted soils the ap-
plication Of perhaps twenty loads Of
dec0mpOsed stable manure, or, if this
cannot be obtained, of fifty pounds
nitrate Of soda and 200 pounds of
fine ground bone per acre which, with
100 bushels of ashes, will make a
complete fertilizer. In case the fresh
ashes cannot be obtained, two or three
times the quantity mentioned of
leached ashes would nave marked
effect. Wood ashes would have a
tendency to sOlidifY and compact the
soil, hence they are excellent on light
land, but care should be taken not to
use them to excess on heavy soils.

How Glover Dries Soil.

Any one who has broken up clover
ley for summer falloW in early June
knows that on hard or stony soil the
land quickly becomes unplowable eX-
cept by putting a new point on the
DloW every day. and often every half
day. The great amount Of moisture
which exhales from an acre Of grow
ing clover is the'reason for this. Cut
the clover, and at least ton Of water
would eXhale from it in tWerty-four
hours. But the whiting which fol-
lows cutting is really q preventive OF
evaporation, as it closes the pores
through which moisture escapes from
the living plant.
