the beautiful houses in Washington, it is
said. were paid for with wives money.
The mansion is in the colonial style,
fronting 100 feet on 18th street. with a
court yard in the rear. So large and impos-
ing is it that strangers often mistake 1t
for public building. The cost of it was
$4,000.
After years of exile Senator Stewart will
re-occupy this winter. his famous resi-
dence on Dupont circle. He built IL in ISL,
when that part of the city was wilder
ness, occupied in part by brickyards. In
that year he came here with a California
syndicate and bought up several blocks Of
land for cents a square foot. which is
now worth from 50 to ST. The dwelling he
erected was one of the finest in Washington
then, and was called stewards Castle" or
sometimes stewards Folly" because 1t
was so far away from everything.

flock of geese makes no small addition

are geese valuable for their flesh, but
their down and feathers represent fair
money value. Practically the farmer
has but two varieties to select from, the
Toulouse and Emblem, if the best meat

of his stock. William Rankin of Massa-
chusetts, who has had 80 years expert
ence in keeping geese, has been quite
successful with two crosses, those made
by mating an African gander and Emb
den geese and then crossing the young
geese with pure African gander. The
two 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 Toulouses head the list as suscepti.
bic TO greatest growth for extra care.
They are good layers and their heavy
bodies admit of their being confined by
low fence. The Emblem, or Bremen,
although not quite so large as the Tou.
louise, have the advantage Of being pure
white. Their meat is white and deli
cate. They yield an abundance Of
valuable feathers, all the more desirable
on account of being white. Either the

Long, straight ears with small cob and

stock should he the ones chosen for seed.
The greater case of husking such corn is
not its only advantage, twill generally
ripcn earlier. and this early ripening
makes u crop many seasons when other
wise there would he soft corn, fit only
for immediate feeding. Corn that is
ripeued under favorable conditions will
be filed ont to the tips, and these large
round grains have been proved by ex-
pertinent to produce stronger plants
than those compressed and tlattened in
the middle of the cob. The present year,
owing to the drought much corn has
filled poorly. There will be many ears
where the grain is scattering, as drought
destroyed the pollen from the pistils be-
fore the silk was ready 10 receive it.
Such ears often have scattering grains
that, having penny Of room, grow very
large. American Gultivator thinks it is
worth willie experimenting with sucl
corn, as, If the seed is we'll dried. it will
undoubtedly produce extra strong and
vigorous plants.

Wintering Onions.

The chief difficulty IN wintering onions
is in keeping them too wartl and too
moist. That is the trouble usually when
they are kept in cellars. Any place
where they can b. dry and held at a
nearly uniform temperature about the
freezing potrt is lust. Onions may freeze
without leing iBlarrd. provided they are
net allowed TO thaw and freeze again,
Where, however, the winters are loo
warm to mako this method Of keeping
safe, it is better to prevent freezing. hut
keep lie onions where they will be at all
times very near the freezing point.

The Democratic falsifisrs are labor
ing to make the people believe that
the Mckinley tariff produced the de-
preston of business that now prevails
in our country. The two years Of
prosperity we experienced under it
stand as an irrefutable monument to
their misrepresentation. They know
that their threats to repeal the tariff or
adopt tariff for revenue only,
alarmed the people, and to-day the
manufacturers are afraid to continue
operations for future market be-
cause of the prospective reduction In
all kinds OF goods. Democrats and
Republicans alike are influenced by
thts consideration. and there Is ho
use for any one to lie about it. When
the tax OIL imported articles has been
decided, business will revive. and moi
before. If we are to have less protec
ton, men will have to work at lower
rates or givs up the market to foreign
goods

The feathers are plucked three times a
year-in July, in October and in Deem
Der. The popular belief is that the feath-
ers Of lean geese are better than those of
fat ones, and those of living geese better
than those Of dead ones Tho feathers
are pluclled in July from the young
geese and the down from under the bel
~, wings and neck. The feathers, though
from a living goose, not being come to
maturity, are inferior to those plucked
in October, which, being taken at the
season when they would naturally fall
off, are in perfection. The feathers
again in December, being taken from a
dead fowl, are inferior TO those procured
in July. On this principle it is evident
that tho SCORER the goose is pluclied aft
ser ii is killed. the better.
