A very good chicken yard is made of
wire fencing. The yard can be made
in sections, so that the different broods
can be kept separately. In such cases
a fine mesh should be used, not over
one inch at the bottom, so that there
cannot be INSTRUMENTATION. The
top of the yard can be covered so rs to
keep out hawks and other enemies, and
rats can also be kept away by the same
means. Small poultry coops are con-
structed of this material, and in dog
kennels, rabbit patches, pigeon houses,
dove cotes and avisries, the use of wire
is unlimited. 1t tis cheap, durable, will
not blow down, admits plenty of light
and air, is neat and ornamental, and
the material does not obstruct view
of the interior. A good hens nest is
made of the same material, the advan-
tago being that it is cleanly, avoiding
dirt and vermin. Hardware.

Care Of the Eye.
Post.

Everybody should have his own
bed, towel. sponge and soap, make
his hand toilet in running water, live
and sleep in well ventilated rooms,
and come under the cleansing infu-
ence of outdoor air and sunshine at
least an hour every day of his life,
for the health of his eyes. Roller
towels, family wash rags and the habit
of using bath or basin of water
second time produce more diseases of
the eye and eur than all the fevers on
the list of plaques. There are forty
three diseases of the eye, and more
than half are contagious. Fully %
per cent. of the sore eyes among ba-
bies and young children and ii per
cent. among adults are proventable.
The most common disease, granula-
ton of the lids, is contagious, and
should be quarantined. In the surgi-
cal wards of public and private insti-
tutions towels are frequently burned
and bandages and dressings always
the moment after use. Cataract pa
tients are put in separate rooms in
isolated wards. In all serious cases
surgeons change their clothes, and
often wear enclosed spectacles. Con-
sidering the pricelessness of sight,
too much care cannot be taken of the

PLANT FOOD.

The Missouri experiment station, in
it's bulletin on soils and fertilizers,
summarizes as follows
/. All crops demand soluble plant
food in proper amounts.
O. The plant food most deficient in
our soils is potash, phosphoric acid
and nitrogen.
g. All plants readily respond to ap-
plications of potash and phosphoric
acid, and all but the leguminous plants
to that of nitrogen.
4. The leguminous plants are able
to gather and appropriate nitrogen in
abundance from the atmospheric
air.
s. Large crops mean the buying OF
potash and soluble phosphoric acid
fertilizers, and unless proper rota-
ton is adopted, that of nitrates or
other nitrogenous manures.
6. Potash salts may be applied either
in fall or i'll spring soluble phosphor-
ic acids and nitrates in spring only.
7. For deep-rooting plants the two
former should be plowed under, and
the soil receive a top dressing in addi'
ton.
8. Beneficial results follow the APP
plication of lime, and that of indirect
fertilizers, such as salt.

Why Tea is Green or Black

The reasons why one kind of tea is
green and another black have been
often and variollsly explained. One
OF the causes for the green color that
the champions of black tea seem to
firmly believe and enjoy is that the
color is the result of drying the tea
on copper pans. Joseph Walsh, who
knows all about tea, says that there is
not the least foundation for this nor
for many of the other opinions, but
that the real reason for the different
color and flavor is that in the green
tea of commerce the leaves are cured
and dried as quickly as possible after
they are picked and rolled, while the
leaves that are intended for black tea
are exposed to the action of the sun
and air for at least twenty-four hours
before being fired, being meanwhile
raked and tossed about until they be
come soft, tleeced, and plant, and
again after being fired they are expos
ed to the oxid1zing influences of the
atmosphere in moist state for hours
previous to being fired second time.
These leaves are then dried over q
slow fire. The method of curing also
accounts for the effect that green ten
has on some persons, caused, it is be-
lieyed, by the greater quantity of vol
atile oil that the rapid process of cur
ing leaves in the leaves New York
