BALED BRUSH.

I, The delights OF an open fire are denied
many because OF the scarcity of fuel.
But thousands live where brush is abun-
dant. 1t may be quickly and cheaply
prepared for use on the hearth by a
homemade hand press, aud its disap.
pearance would prove blessing to many
community. Two strong horses must
first be built. Use plank crossed like
the letter x, and firmly bolted together.
Hollow the upper part SO it will re-
semble U rather than V, and do not
have it too far from the ground. Stand
up these horses six feet apart, and line
their upper hollows with heavy boards,
placing one horse one foot from the end
of this trough and the other just at the
opposite end. Or log may be dug out
and firmly mounted. TO the foot of the
horse, flush with the end, bolt an up.
right board loosely, and attach to this a
lever in such way that it will come
down closely over the end of the trough.
To bale brush lay it in the press and
bring down the lever. While holding
this with the knee, bind the bundle
firmly with cheap tarred twine; then
slip it along and repeat. Place the
bands SO the long roll can be cut in
lengths to please. To do so will be
easy, and these bundles will be neat,
pleasant TO burn and economical. Brush
from trees cut this winter may be all
prepared while green and pliable. Birch,
chestnut, maple and alder are con-
vsnient, as their branches are not
scraggy. Corn and sunfower stalks and
swale hay may be utilized thus also. To
add variety and zest to the brilliance of
the home hearth, bind a few evergreens.
Boys and girls, as well as those of
mature years, love to see fire. Who
knows but it may help keep them home
and make them love the old farm
better. Surely it will attract social
neighbors who will contribute to the
evenings profit. t.-New York Tribune.

WHEAT FOR FOWLS.

Wheat is grain that lens like and,
in moderation, should have at all sea-
sons. In the wheat fields after harvest
they naturally seek and live the greater
part of their time picking up the loose
wheat found about the stubble field. For
laying hens this grain fed in the morn
ing three times week will do much TO
ward bringing them into condition to
lay. Too much, however, has tendency
to fatten rapidly, retardlng laying. Good
old wheat is always cheaper food than
screenings. Barn-foor sweepings are
nearly as good. Farmer.

MISSIONARY HYMN.
{ REVISED UP TO THE PRESENT TINE.


Onward, Christian Soldiers!
On to heather lands !
Prayer-books in your pockets,
Rifles in your hands.
Take the happy tidings
Where trade can be done:
Spread the peaceful gospel
With Gattling gun.
Tell the wretched natives
Sinful are their hearts,
Turn their heather temples
Into spirit-marts.
And if to your preaching
They will not succumb,
Substitute for sermons
Foul New England rum.
Tell them they are pagans
In black error sunk.
Make them all good Christians,
That is-make them all drunk
And if on the Bible
Still they dare to frown,
You must do your duty
Take and shoot them down
When the Ten Commandments
They quite understand,
You their Chief must hocus,
And annex their land.
And if they, misguided,
Call you to account,
Read them-in their language
The Sermon on the Mount.
If, in spite of all your teaching,
Trouble still they give
If, spite rum and measles,
Some Of them still live;
Then, with purpose moral,
Spread false tales about,
Instigate a quarrel,
And let them fight it out
