Another Mutiny at Aider.hot.

LONDON, Sept 15.-The latest exhibition
of the mutinous spirit in the British army

the First infantry managed to obtain
liquor. with the result that they became
boisterous and finally broke down the
door of the guard-room. The disturbance
raised an alarm, guards turned out from
all sides and the mutineers were over

Forage and Pasture Grasses.

In view of the well-ascertained de-
generacy of seeds caused by climatic in
fiuences, farmers now look for new
supplies from distant sources. Years
ago such practice was considered the
impolicy of careless husbandry, the re-
suit of that thoughtlessness which
'taketh no thought for the morrow"
but with the present cheap and rapid
means of transportation that idea has
passed away, and this spring carloads
of oats have come to Madison county
from Michigan, which have been sold to
farmers at fifty-five cents per bushel.
Testimony is constantly accommodating
in favor of orchard grass as one of the
best species of forage or pasture grass
Is, and we are confident that the inter-
ests of dairymen would be greatly pro-
noted by its more extended growth. It
will thrive on most soils, as it has an
abundance of roots and is a perennial
grass of strong, rank growth. Home

About the WEAVING of Pigs.

The following method is sometimes
practiced in Canada: If at five or six
weeks, the young pigs are eating and
growing we'll then increase their feed,
giving them all that they will take,
and decrease the feed of the sow grad
ually for nearly two weeks. At the
end of this time the two strongest
young of the litter are taken away;
again after two days another pair, and
so on until all are weaned. This tends
to even up the different pigs of the lit
ter if there is any variation in size, and
uniformity in lot does q good deal
when it comes to selling, be they sheep,
cattle or hogs BY following this
method the SOW is given the very best
chance, and any danger of spelling her
milking qualities is prevented, which is
very important if she is to continue to
be a brood sow.

LIVESTOCK NOTES.

Az occasional clump of shade trees
for cattle to shelter under is appreciated
at this season of the year.
GIVE horses a liberal allowance of
grain and good hay while they are
working hard at harvesting. Feed reg
ularly and water them as often as pos
sible.
WATCH closely that work horses are
not overdone during the hot days. Two
or three hours at time is quite long
enough to have a horse pull heavy
binder on very hot day.
If mares which have young colts
must be worked during harvest keep
the colt in a cool box stall in the barn;
both colt and mare will be better off
and the possibility of Gripping with
the machines will be avoided.
ALLOW your stock to Craze during
the early morning and late evening.
They are free from flies and it is cool
and pleasant at those times. If shut in
small yard in early evening and kept
there until late in the morning they
will not do so well. Orange Judd

How Some Of the Weak Stands May +
Put to Good T1Se.

How Some Of the Weak Stands May Re
Put to Good Use.
In almost every apiary there are al
ways a few stands that seem to be
weak when compared with others.
These stands are of little value so far
as the production of any surplus honey
is concerned, but they can be put to
good use in starting nuclei and queen
rearing. l find have three or four of
these poor colonies. They were good,
strong ones last season and were
seemingly as strong and healthy this
that the honey season is here find
they are away behind, and will be OF
little value for field work.
The trouble with these colonies is,
the queen has lost her vigor and is in a
manner worthless. After awhile the
bees will kill her, or she may die and
they will rear another; but they don't
seem to know when to do this, nor
does the beekeeper until it is too late
for the best results. And when they do
rear a new queen it is always from the
old stock, and is not likely to be a first
class one. The value of a colony
largely depends on the queen. If we
expect to get any surplus we must have
good prolific queens.
nave usually been in the habit OF
uniting the weak colonies in the
spring. But we may sometimes unite
two or three of them and when the
honey harvest arrives they are little il
any better than some weak ones that
We're not united. l believe it is better
rc<,.
or else just let them alone; at least it
seems SO very often. Quite often
have known colonies that We're very
weak in the early spring to build up
fast, and almost equal any of the rest.
They, of course, had young prolific
queens. In such cases it is loss to
unite them.
But we must do something with those
that have poor queens and do not get
strong enough to give any surplus.
They may not be any better another
year, and may never be of any value SC
far as producing any honey. unless we
requiem them. It will hardly pay to
buy a queen for them, for queens are
pretty high in the fore part of the sea-
son, and if we would buy one they
would hardly get sufficiently strong to
make much money. The cheapest way
is to rear a queen from our choicest
stock and give it to them. l sometimes
kill the queen and give them a queen
cell, or unite them with swarm, but
always kill the queen before uniting.
They are very apt to fight when thus
united. but a pretty severe smoking
will generally subdue them. Sometimes
these colonies are very old and their
combs black and pretty well filled with
pollen. In such cases it may not be the
queens fault. The best thing to dc
with these combs is to melt them into
beeswaX. and give them new combs, or
sheets of foundation, and let them
draw it out. If you have such stands
as these don't fool time away with
them, but overhaul them in some way
and try to make them profitable, for in
all probability they will never be OF
any account till you attend to them

EGYPTIAN DATES.

Some-of the Marvellous Things Discovered
in the Nile River Valley.
Three great authorities, Wilkinson,
Marietta and BrugSch, never by any
chance agree as to dates. AT the very
outset. as to the date of Mena, the first
historic king, they vary to the extent
of two thousand six hundred years:
this is a margin you would hesitate to
allow TO your dearest friend. Then,
as regards the social and art life OF
Egypt, nothing is more healthily low
ering to the modern mind than to find
Egypt continually saying: Il told YOU
so: and. what is more, l told you so
some thousands of years ago" Until ]

ton for Mr.. Edison. 1t is true his in
ventions seem to complicate life, but
at any rate they We're new.
After visiting Egypt, believe half
of them are simple infringements OF
old Egyptian ideas, the patents for
which have long since expired. Prof.
Piazzi Smyth is sure q am not) that
the Pyramid of Cheops contains a rev.
eiction of nearly all the scientific dis
coveries of the last 5000 years.
Egypt is sphinx that is perpetually
asking questions. and modern civilizar
ton is perpetually giving up the
answers. Take the famous statue
of Chephren. carved from block
of green diorite. Diorite is one of the
hardest stones known: it holds its
own against modern tools. How, anc
with what implements did the old
Egyptians carve it? Six thousand
years ago bronze was common IN
Egypt; whence did they get their tin
to make it? Six thousand years ago
they produced the wonderful statue of
the Village Sheik at Gizeh. 1t is in
finitely superior to nInety-nine per
cent. of modern English sculpture.
Through what centuries of superb
civilization did the art develop. and
slowly ripen to such perfection? After
preliminary survey of these and SINH
lar questions it became manifest that,
if reason We're to retain her seat,
must take certain prominet figures. and
stick to them at all hazards.-Cornhill

TRIMMINGS FOR SKIRTS.
Seasonable Suggestions for the Home
Dre&Smaker.

SeasonabIe Suggestions for the Home
Dressmaker.
All of the full skirts have round eff
fects in the trimmings, though many
of the gored designs made for short or
stout figures are trimmed lengthwisc
by covering each seam with narrow
gimp. or piping with a tiny double bias
fold. or cord each seam of the front
and sides. The full skirts extended
from the knees are as unbecoming to-a
tall figure. if stout, as to short one.
The 1880 idea of placing the trimming
at the lower edge, knees and midway
between. became a favorite as soon
as it was introduced. Other rows
of garniture are put from two
to four inches apart, and some of the
extreme toilets of the summer show
rufties to the belt or fiat rows of rib
bon or Hercules braid in graduated or
even rows ntirely covering the skirt.
Unless blessed with an extensive ward
robe | would not recommend either of
these styles. as they are too striking
not to be well remembered. Bias ruff
fies are rather scantily gathered, using

left untrimmed when the skirt is amply
