Fence Posts.

American Agriculturist.
In actual practice there is but little differ
ence in the durability Of posts. whether set
with the top or bottom end in the ground.
The point OF greatest decay is, nine times
IN ten. about six inches above and below
the surface of the ground. This is caused
by the continuous changes from moisture
to drynesS, while the part which is far
below the surface is not subject to changes,
but IS nearly always water-sOaked, which
with many woods acts as a p~reservative.
IL any p~reservative is applied TO a post it
should be at the point where it will he
and below, or, ii they are charred. it should
be at the point named. In setting posts
where the lower end is below the action Of
tire frost the big end should be downward,
as then the frost VIII not have such n lever
age in raising it upward. A projecting knot
left near the lowest portion set In the
ground will have the same effect, or a
notch cut in the side OF post near the bot
tom, in which a fiat stone is placed. y hole
bored ana a wooden pin inserted and left
projecting q few inches will have the same
effect, the point being TO have a weight OF
earth above the projecting surface and yet
below the usual frost line. II is a mistake
10 set posts eight TO ten inches in diameter,
thinking they will outlaSt those of smaller
size: for general use q fence post six inches
In diameter is more durable than one OF
nine inches in diameter. and containing one
the larger excavations Thelarger ones are
heavier to handle, and, il purchased, cost
far more, with no corresponding benefits TO
Be derived. IS to durability, cedar stands
at the head of the list, With oak as second
choice.

How to Wash Linens.

Not many laundresses know how 70 wash

Make a sudS with good laundry soap

comfortably. Wash the piece 81, rubbing
with the hands. letting the water swish
freely through it,; but don't put any soap
on the embroidery or rub on the board, mind
that. for il tears the work or at best makes
it rough. When it has been well washed in
this water throw Il into a clear water OF
the same temperatures: wash we'll through
that. Then put it into cold water. with
the water. The article must not be al
lowed 10 lie after being once wet. but must
be passed f'Om one water TO another as
fast as possible, for the very best colored
silks viii TUr. * left lying wet. Now comes
the most important part: never dry these
things out of doors, fer the sun and even
the hot wind win surely face the silks: let
them set perfectly dry, and when you are
all ready 70 iron them mot befOre) lay
and with . dampeninS cloth "a clean sDOnge

over. Then iron with an iron as hot as you
dare use without burning.
L have 2 piece Of white flannel to put

this way they never need starch and Will

ACTIVE AND HIGHER
Wheat Gains lie on Good Buying
and Firmer Cable News.
Armour and Partridge Rush on the
Market with Heavy Orders When
the Price Is at Its Lowest.

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-Wheat was active.
and closed %qhc higher on heavy buying
at the early decline by prominent traders
and firm foreign markets. Corn was life
less and heavy. Oats steady. Provisions
nrm.
Wheat opened 1&c lower for Ma on the
rains which were soaking the winter wheat
belt. Beerbohm's cable, which quoted wheat
and flour higher at Paris, had an early ca
blegram quoting French country markets
dull, and with a tendency. Liv-
erpool was reported steady at yesterdays
decline, and Chicago receipts were 80 cars
in excess Of the estimate. The weakness Of
the market continued for some time under
these discouraging influences. and May went
down to 6S1sc, while December touched
6113c. Then Armour's broker, who had sold
December heavily at the opening, began to
buy, and Ream, and Partridge, and Lean
ing also bought freely at the decline. AS a
consequence the market took an upward
turn. Armour bought a straight lot of 2SO,-
coo bushels Of December, and prices held
firm at the advance. Bradstreet's visible
supply statement showed a decrease of
1860 bushels in the stocks afloat for and
in Europe, and this was an apparent bull
influence. The market was strengthened
near the end by the unexpected firmness of
the Paris market as given in the closing
cables. May opened at 6S2Lc, declined &c,
rallied CSC, sold up CSC, lost Ac, gained 1sc,
then CSC, to close at 69Ac.
Corn was dull, with light offerings and
demand. May opened at yesterdays close,
declined &c, but, helped by the strength in
wheat, sold up sc; later declined Ac, to
close &c lower than 1t started, at 1880.
Oats were firm, opening with May &c
higher at 3l3sc; with the early weakness in
wheat it declined &c, but rallied &c later,
to close at the opening figure. Trading was
light.
Provisions were firm, opening higher and
advancing on free buying by the Anglo
American Packing Company: near the close
small estimated stocks and the strength IN
wheat gave firmness to the market, and
the close showed an advance all around.
Compared with last night January pork is
25c higher, January lard sc higher and jan
Uary ribs PFC higher.
Vessel business was dull, with boats Of
fered at 2ihc for corn to Buffalo. Rail rates
