STAINING Car Arrangement.

A lady writes urging the introduction
of special sleeping cars fGs' women on
which only women servants should be
employed. Theoretically this would I'M
doubtedly be desirable reform, which
men as well as women would favor,
since the usual mixed arrangements are
probably not agreeable either to men Or
women. However, it is to be feared that
the plan is not practicable. From a
woman's car of this sort conductors,
brakemen and all other men would have
to be excluded, OF else there would be no
advantage except to the men in the other
cars from which women were excluded,
and under our present system OF con-
struction this would be impossible. Men
would still have to make thoroughfare
of the car in order to carry on the train
at all. A separately cartained portion
Of car would seem to approach nearer
to practicability. AS matter Of fact,
no serious trouble results from the pres
emit system, though 1T is often incon-
venient and disagreeable to both men
and women.-Boston Transcript.

UNION MUTUAL LIFE
INSURANCE COMPANY.

The imperative need of the protection
afforded by Life Insurance is made man
ifest every day. Of late, the grim spec
tire Death has stalked abroad In it's most
hideous forms: accidents of the most ter
rible character-some resulting from nat
ural forces, others from the carelessness
of man-have been. recorded day by day
Immunity has been accorded to none;
neither age, youth nor status has claimed
exemption-the old and the young, the
rich and the poor, have alike fallen be-
fore the scythe of Deaths avenging
angel. 1t is this uncertainty of life-the
converse of deaths certainty-that caus-
es those who reflect to avail themselves
of the benefcence of Life Insurance.
When death in its terrible swiftness en-
tiers household, the pangs of the suffer-
ing bereaved are sufficiently acute with
out being added to by any prospective
view of penury and want.
Life Insurance is duty; one OF the
most sacred attaching to any bread-win-
ner, and a terrible responsibility rests
upon the shoulders of those who are in
any way neglectful in this connection.
INSURANCE PROTECTION CONSE-
OITENT UPON DEATH BY DISEASE
OR ACCIDENT is ALONE SECURED
BY POLICIES OF LIFE INSURANCE.
Your home company-the Union Mu-
tual-issues policies than which none are
more liberal; they are also of the most
varied character, with premiums as low
as it is possible to make them con-
sistent with the absolute security they
afford.

Belonging to the Chicken Louise Family.
The red mites found on the poultry,
and in the nests, and on the roosts be-
long to the louise family, and while they
are not as destructive as the large gray
louise they still take the snap out of both
the fowls and the chicks by their con-
tinual worry, explains The Fanciers'
Journal, which advises that roosts and
nests be treated each week to soaking
of kerosene, and air Stacked lime should
be literally strewn about the buildings,
The tiny white mite which is frequently
found on the eggs in the inoubators does
not, strictly speaking, belong to the
louise family. They are what are known
as moisture mites" produced by an
oversupply Of moisture during the
hatch. AS they are of no particular
damage, it is hardly necessary to fight
them. We mention them here as they
are SO often taken for chicken lice.

IN THE POTATO FIELD.
Relative Merits of Deep and Shallow Cub
ture-Dinerent Depths of Planting.

Relative Merits of Deep and Shallow Cub
ture-Dinerent Depths of Planting.
In experiments carried on at the ex-
,eriment station of the Michigan state
agricultural college with view to as
certalnlng which method OF planting
in hills or drills-gives the greater yield,
the results favored drills. These exper-
lments were conducted two seasons and
in both clay and sand. These tests were
also made with several varieties of po-
tatoes and with different amounts Of seed.
The effects of another experiment were:
1. To test the relative merits of deep and
shallow culture. 2. To secure compare
tive results of the different depths of
planting. The plat on which the exper
iments were conducted is sandy loan.
Three varieties of potatoes were used
namely, Burbank's Seeding, Lees Fa-
vorite and Thorburn, in order that the
eccentricity Of any particular variety
might be guarded against as influencing
the entire experiment.
The potatoes were planted at the depth
Of two, three, four, five and six inches.
The cultivation was performed with
Goodyear cultivator, set at about II
inches for the shallow culture, and at
about five inches for the deep culture.
There was little difference in time of
appearance between those planted two,
three, four and five inches deep. In
nearly all cases the three and four inch
plants were trife more advanced than
the two and Ave.
In ripening, little difference was noted
between those planted six and five inches
deep, either in point Of advancement or
in time of ripening. Those planted two
and three inches deep were very slightly
further advanced than the others.
Results gained made it appear that
out of 45 experiments the total yield in
90 cases was greatest with the deep cul-
ture and in 10 cases was in favor of shall
low culture, while in three instances the
yield was practically the same.
In the same experiments the yield of
marketable potatoes was in 40 cases in
favor Of deep culture, while four cases
showed q balance in favor Of shallow
culture. The amount Of sunburned
potatoes was in SO cases greatest in
shallow culture, in six cases in favor of
deep culture, while in three instances
the yield was the same The amount of
small potatoes was in % cases greatest
with shallow culture, in 10 cases greatest
with deep culture, while two instances
were indecisive. Deep culture gives the
best result both as to total yield and as
to percentage of marketable to I'M
marketable. This holds true for all the
different kinds of soil on the plat.
It was found that the potatoes planted
three inches deep gave the largest yield.
and that those planted FIVE inches deep
gave the largest amount of marketable
potatoes. The potatoes planted two inches
deep gave the smallest amount of market
able potatoes.

Self living Arrangements.

The practicability of self hiving ar
rangements for swarms remains ques-
ton in the minds of many apiarists.
Dadaut thinks there is too much to get
outaof order in these contrivances. Pro-
lessor A. j. Cook doesn't believe they
have come to stay. Mrs. Atchley of
Texas says in The American Bee Jour
nal: II believe in progression, but I am
now of the opinion that swarm catchers
will soon be thing Of the past, like the
patent moth catcher. may be wrong.
W. M. Barnum is, on the contrary, con-
WINGED of the practicability of this new
arrangement. But the apiarist who Is
continually with his bees does not need
it. To those who are at certain times
obliged to be away 1t is, in his opinion,
well worthy the expense. J. 3. Pond
does not believe in it,
Ct. W. Demaree says: "When I want
swarm, want a swarm that can work
with profitable results, and that means
a strong swarm. No self hiver' will
catch a full sized swarm half Of the time,
and that is not practicability."
Cautious G. G. Miller remarks that
opinions differ, and it is perhaps too
early yet to know exactly the truth
about the matter.
R. F. Holterman says: IT believe
yes, I am firmly convinced-that the
self hiver has a great future before it
not for the specialist in his own apiary,
but for those who have not enough bees
to afford watching them"

CottOIene
a SHORTENING.

Down the street through the busy way
A lady passed on marketing day.
Who, pausing at grocery store,
Stepped quickly in at the open door.
With bated breath and anxious mien
She queried: shave you COTToLENEs"
The grocer, leaving off his work,
Interrogated every clerk;
But none up to that time had seen
An article called COTTOLENE."
"What is it," said he to the dame,
THAT answers to this curious name.
What is it made OFF What's its usee
My ignorance you'll please excuse. )"
"You're not the merchant for my dimes,
see you're quite behind the times.
For COTTOLENE, I'd have you know
Is now the thing that's all the go,
An article of high regard;
A heaItElfuI substitute for lard.
Its composition pure and clean;
For cooking give me COTTOLENE."
AS from his store the lady fled.
The grocer gently scratched his head.
On his next order, first was seen,
"Oue dozen cases COTTOLEME."

could not come to the opinion that Har-
