Ventilation of sleeping Rooms.

The proper arrangement of
draughtS for the ventilation of sleep
ing rooms has perplexed all, says
the New York Times. One thing,
however, is certain. 1t has been
proved by actual experiment that a
layer of air lies against the walls
which is subject to very little move
ment, even when there is strong
circulation in the middle of the room,
1t is, therefore, important that bed
should not be placed close to the
wall. If kept there during the day
time, it should be moved at least
several inches out into the room at
night. Alcoves and curtains should
be avoided. In an alcove enclosed
ON three sides a lake of air forms,
which may be compared to the stag
nant pools often observed along the
margins of rivers. A few yards
away the rushing tide may be NOV
ing swiftly along, but these placid
pools are unruffled by the current.
While placing the bed, especially
the head of it, where it will be
shielded from the strongest draught,
there should be still enough motion
to the air in that vicinity to insure
fresh supplies throughout the night.
The prevailing lack of appetite for
breakfast, as well as many cases of
an9mia and worse diseases are due
to the breathing over and over again
of the same air in restricted bed.
rooms, where beds are too often
placed in alcoves or are shaded by
curtains, which are seldom shaken
out in the fresh air.

The Farm rs a Training School.

1t remains true even to-day that
the farm is the chief and best school
for the training of capable men that
exists in this country 1t is other
wise in Europe, where one does not
find class corresponding to the in
dependent American farmer But
with us the farmer is a superb train
er of boys. His lads are learning
real things, while the town boys too
often are merely studying in books
the pale reflection of things.
The farmer boy knows early about
land and soils; about crops and their
rotatians; about the seasons and the
weather and the signs of the sky.
He grows up in familiar acquaintance
with animals. He owns a dog, he
has a favorite horse, he rides wild
colts, he feeds the horned cattle. He
helps in the planting and in the har-
vesting. He is usually versed in
wood lore, and knows trees and
plants, birds, squirrels, rabbits and
ground hogs. He hunts with gun
and goes fishing He develops su-
perb health. He helps repair the
fences. He learns about tools and
masters the complexities of farm
machinery. In short, the range of
his practical knowledge becomes
very great.

Farm Notes.


Recently Meehans Monthly called
attention to the value of improve
ments in the direction of seedless
fruit, For many purposes in do
mestic economy, seedless fruit is
desirable. In the grape, as is well
known, the currant has held its own
in this respect from time almost
immemorial, and yet the currant of
the grocery stores is nothing but
seedless grape. Fruits which seem,
50 to speak, to avoid seed bearing,
never are as large AZ those which
produce seed, and this is the reason
the currant seems so small in COM
parison to the raisin. In the orange
great advance has been made in
the line of the variety called the
Navel. This also never, or rarely
produces seeds. But in the apple
and pear, and other popular fruits,
although seedless varieties have been
brought to popular notice, few of
them have reached deserved popular
ity. In relation to the class known
as stone fruits, no attention has been
given. II only seedless peach
could be obtained, it would prove
bonanza to commercial men, and
yet, so far as vegetable physiology
is concerned, there appears to be no
reason why seedless peach could
not be originated as well as seedless
varieties of other fruits. The whole
subject is well worthy of carefully
attention to those improves whose
chief object is to derive fortune
from scientific truths reduced to
practice.

Hints.

The reputation of your stock de-
pends upon the top, the best. Sell
off at the other end.
When farmer pleases the fancy
of the passerby it is worth more to
the owner.
1t is better to go slow and keep the
horses in good condition than to rush
work so that the teams become weak
Storage room out of doors for farm
tools is cheap in the first instance,
but the most costly thing farmer
can indulge in the final reckoning
Clean cultivation is the only wise
method for conducting farm. The
great things needed are promptness
and thoroughness.
Twice year, in June and Septem-
ber borers in fruit trees should be
looked for, and if faithfully done no
one need lose trees through damage
the borer may do. When hatched
the grub bores into the bark of the
tree, making track of sawdust as it
goes, which indicates where to search
for it,
If a superabundance of flies haunt
your premises, be sure that there is
something to draw them there. Like
any other vermin, they tell that you
or your neighbor is not living in the
right way. Their attraction may be
swill barrel, an odor arising from
the ground where slops are thrown
out, or a drain which has become
filled up. Instead of setting fly
traps, seek the cause of their congre-
cation and remove it at once.

A brief dispatch received from
Ingalls,, O. T., Sept. l, states that a

In the battle Deputy Marshal Shod-

According to the last report Peary

road track has been washed away
and traffic is suspended. Thousands
of dead horses and cattle go floating
down the stream, business is at a
standstill, stores and hotels are
closed, and it is almost impossible to
estimate the amount of financial
damage.

JELLY POINTS.
Where the inexperienced Fail In This
Branch of Preserving.

Branch of Preserving.
The time required for boiling jelly
is the point on which it is more easy
to make a mistake than on any
other
Hard fruit, such as apples and
ounces, must be boiled with little
water to draw out the juice.
The juice should be allowed to drip
into basin or earthern bowl, never
into a tin vessel, for the action Of
tin would be injurious both to color
and flavor.
Currants and small soft fruits in
tended for jelly-making should not
be gathered Immediately after rain,
for the juice is then less rich, and
less full of flavor
Only the best sugar should be
used for making jelly. There is no
economy in using cheap sugar; it
contains impurities which must
either be removed in the form Of
scum or which will spoil the jelly.
Fruit that is dusty is not injured
by being rinsed quickly in and out
of cold water, but if it is gathered
during rain it will be impoverished.
Fruit juice that is to be converted
into superior jelly should not be
squeezed or pressed, but simply al
lowed to drip. The cloth or bag
used for straining may be made of
flannel or of coarse linen toweling;
either will do so long as perfect
cleanliness is secured.
The reason why fruit juices jelly,
is because they contain a gelatinous
substance but until the fruit becomes
ripe this is of little or no value; with
each day of over ripeness it grows
weaker.
Jelly is spoiled as much when
overlooked as when underboiled. If
underboiled it becomes mouldy, or
softens, or will not turn out in a
shape; yet if overlooked it candies in
time, or darkens and loses its flavor.
Boil the juice rapidly twenty min
utes and then drop in the sugar,
which has been heated in the oven
in fat dishes until so hot that the
hand cannot be borne in it; stir rap
idly until it dissolves, withdraw the
spoon, and as soon as it boils up
once, pour into glasses.
Fruits yielding a thick juice will
need only three,quarters of pound
of sugar to pint of juice, while for
the thinner juices pound to a pint
is the best rule. Green grapes re.
quire pound and half to pint.
The best test of jelly is the follow.

Messrs. Sheehan and Harris Held to
Answer on simmons Charge.
The libel case of Police Captain I. T.
Simmons against J. A. Sheehan and J.
B. Harris, editors and publishers of the
Nelcs, was called in the Police Court yes
terday. A. j. Bruner represented the
complainant, in the absence of C. t.
Jones, and Grove L. johnson appeared
for the defense.
Mr.. Johnson said the complaint was
worthless, but under the advice of his
clients he would not stand on a technical
ity, but would-for the purposes of the
examination only-admit that Messrs.
Sheehan and Harris were the publishers
of the NeicS, and that the article COM
planned of was published in their paper
in this city; also that the complainant
was a resident of Sacramento, which fact
the complaint did not show.
MIR. Bruner was permitted to supply
the omission in the complaint.
No testimony was taken except that Of
Officer Higgins, who, in the absence of
Captain Simmons. was placed on the
stand TO establish the facts OF Simmons,
residence and the publication OF the
article.
The case was then submitted. and
Judge Buckley held the defendants to
answer, with bail at $500 each, which was
promptly given.
