Oil and soap.

Its Use as a Dirt Killer. An Emulsion OF
| oil aud soap.
Fill the boiler two-thirds full of
water or use about four pailfuls of
water Shave three fourths of a bar
of soap into a basin or small pail,
pour two spoonfuls of kerosene on
the soap, then add pint or more of
hot water and set on the back of the
stove, stirring often until the soap
dissolves. The kerosene will mix
with the soap, and more water may
be added if needed. Pour half of
! this soap INTO the boiler and it is
ready for the clothes. Some people
put the clothes dry into the boiler,
but it is better to put them into a
tub of water, then wiring out and
put in to boil Put in the finest
clothes first and be careful not to
crowd the boiler Let them boil
hard for fifteen minutes.
Then take them out into q tub of
cold water and put the second lot
into the boiler after adding half of
the remaining hot water soap to the
water in the boiler, also pail of
water to replace what was taken out
with the clothes. While they are
boiling get the first lot ready for the
line. Wash them thoroughly in the
first tub, rubbing between the hands
or on the board any place which is
still soiled, then throw them into u
tub well filled with blue water.
Rinse well and they are ready to be
starchcd and hung on the line.
Serve the second boilerful in the
same way. Use the remainder of
the soap for the last boiling of white
clothes. After the white ones are
all boiled put the aprons, colored
shirts, etc, except new ones which
will fade, into the boiler, and let
them boil a few minutes This will
loosen the dirt SO that it will come
out with very little rubbing in the
suds water. Mems socks and pants,
which are usually the worse part of
the washing, will come clean with
comparatively little work after boil
ing a short time in the kerosene
suds The colored clothes may be
washed through some of the suds,
using piece of soap left to rub the
soiled places. In this way one bar
of soap is sufficient for large wash
ing, says a woman who recommends
this as an economical and easy way
of washing.-Our Grange Homes

Keep chairs always on the porch,
as not a standing, but sitting, in
vitation, to pass not only your spare
hours but to carry out any work that
can just as we'll be done there as in
the hot kitchen, even if it is pairing
potatoes. Never mind says the
Farm Journal, if the passers-l y
can see you. They will probably
think you a very sensible woman and

really comfortable cushions are re.
quired just as much in summer as in
winter only they ought to be cool
ones, made of linen, or denim, or
awning cloth stuffed with fine or
curled hair.

RepairinR Roads.

The keeping road in repair is
fully as important as building new
one and needs constant attention.
If it is decided to reshape the road
with a road machine, much better
work can be done by plowing the
sides of the road the fall before and
letting the sods decay and soften.
The bitches should be carefully
watched that they may be kept clean
and free from bushes. A grass-cov-
cred ditch will carry off the water if
the road is kept the right shape from
center to bottom of ditch, but it
should on no account be allowed to
get filled so as to hold the water;
and the culverts should be watched
to see that they carry off the water
freely, and on no account should
stream of water be allowed to run in
the driveway.
A good way to keep road in per-
feet repair. is to leave small pile OF
fine crushed stone or screened gravel
at convenient distances, and have
man with a wheelbarrow keep the
road smooth and even by filling any
ruts or holes that might be made.
The usual way is to leave hole or
rut until it gets large enough to re-
quire good deal of attention and a
considerable expense, when a shovel
or two of gravel or fine crushed
stone at the start would have cost
little and saved large outlay in the
end. A man on. the road during
shower or in the spring may, with
few moments work with shovel or
hoe, turn the water into the bitches
and prevent the washing of gully
in the road. A small outlay in this
way would save good deal in the
end and render the roads uniformly
good.
One great Improvement in our
roads would be the general adoption
of broad tires for work teams. A
road can be much more easily kept
in condition with broad tires, which
act as roller, than the narrow tires
which cut into the road. New Eng
land Farmer.

Irrigation Convention.

The Interstate Irrigation Conven-
ton met at Salina, Kansas, Sept. %,
with an excellent representation
from all the nine States interested
After the delivery of addresses, COM
mittees were appointed.
Resolutions were adopted making
it the sense Of the convention that it
is the duty of Congress to make an
appropriation for the purpose of
testing the practicability of the fol-
lowing theories of irrigation for the
plains:
First-That the Government should
by experiments determine whether
the underhow of waters is of sufficient
volume and could be brought to the
surface at cost to make it available
for general irrigation purposes.
Second--That it should determine
whether reservoirs can be con-
structed for the purpose in quantity
sufficient for irrigation purposes.
Resolved, That the Interstate Irri-
cation Association be and is hereby
organized by the delegates present
for the purpose of promoting the
cause of irrigation. The officers of
this association shall be the president,
vice-president, secretary and treas
urer, with an executive of five.
Resolved, That we demand of our
senators and representatives in Con
gress immediate action looking to
the relief Of the people upon the line
indicated by the resolutions.
1t is now provided that associa.
tions should be formed in all the
States interested to work with the
Interstate association.

the international convention, to be
held at Los Angeles, on October TO-

Farm Notes.
Working Butter,

Whether it is better to work butter
once or twice will depend entirely
upon the condition in which it comes
from the churn. The objects of
working are to remove the butter
milk and sulphur water and incor-
porate the salt If the buttermilk
has been entirely washed out before
the butter is taken from the churn,
and the butter is still in small grains
when put on the worker, and the
salt sifted over it evenly, then one
thorough working may remove all
the sulphur water and incorporate
the salt. II, however, the butter
has been collected in Jumps, two
workings will be necessary, one i'm
mediately after taken from the
churn, and before sailing; the other
II or "A hours after sailing.
The working of butter is often in.
timately related to the streaks which
are often seen even after unusual
care of the cream has been taken.
The trouble arises from the dissolv-
ing salt, after the butter has been
printed and packed, and may be by
a second working remedied six or
eight hours after the salt has been
introduced. To those who have not
tried it, the amount of water ex-
PEELED from butter, that appeared
perfectly dry at the first working,
will be surprise, and the butter
will present n uniform color and
solid appearance, not before appar-
ent. Sailing with brine in the
churn, while the butter is in the
granular form, obviates the difficulty
in some degree, but it is not possible
to avoid the streaky condition alto
gether by hurried packing and dis
pensing with the second working.

There is one booth in jackson Park
that escapes the collector of the de-
partment of concessions. Because its
profits are devoted to entertainments
in woman's building the salesroom
conducted by the board of lady man
ayers escapes the twenty-five per cent.
tax. The booth did rushing bust
ness last week, selling over $1,000 worth
of goods. They are sent by the
woman's exchanges of all large towns
and cities, and articles are replaced as
fast as sold.
Some "nests" of baskets made by
two Attakpas Indian women are at
tracing much attention. These two
old women, who are both over eighty
years, are the only full-blood survivors
of the Attakpas tribe, which many
years ago was numerous and powerful
in Southern Louisiana, where these
women live. They found much diff.
