HumDug or Rainmaking.

Now as to the possibility OF produc.

mover safe to say what things are pos
sible and what things are impossible
to II an What the future may bring
forth no one can tell. At the present
time there is no evid nee t. show that
even the smallest local shower has
been produced artificia ly. Further
than that, 1t Is safe to say that no
methoi of producing art cial ram has
yet been publicly proposed which sug-
eests 10 one familiar W tn the scien.
iific principles involved even a pos l.
bility Of success. That such attempts
have received the o. cial recognition
and financial support of Congress is
only another evidence OF the gross
ignorance of scientific priucll les which
Is prevalent among our so-called edu
Gated men. That ome Of the men who

HORSES LEGS.

try to initiate nature by the fol-
lowing system, says an English special
ist: l have earth floors in all the
stalls; L wash the legs from the knees
and hooks downward every day; walks
in the dew and rain-soaked grass are
given. Should the horse come in
from exercise with feet full of earth it
is not picked out, but left in for two
or three hours, cooling and sweetening
the feet wonderfully. 1t is not advis-
able to leave the earth on the feet
longer than this, as it becomes harder
from the heat of the foot, and thus
balks the object aimed at-coolness.
1 apply cold water bandages,
changed every two hours. For re-
ducing the heat in fevered legs, and 1
do not grease the hoofs nor allow the
smith. when shoeing, to remove any
part of the hoof except the wall, which
he lowers, so that when the shoe is

tenn 1 have mover had any difficulty in
keeping my horses limbs right; in
fact they could hardly be improved
upon.

Arbitration In New Zealand.

One result of the recent democratic
victory in New Zealand will be the
passage OF compulsory arbitration
law within six months, and it will not
be long before this example Is follow
by the Australian colonies. This law,
which, in the opinion OF Mr.. / eeve..
will work satisfactorily and do a vast
amount OF good Will provide that any
association OF registered workingmen
may file a complaint against an en-
ployer and compel him 10 show cause
In court why wages should be reduced
or why they should not be raised. En-
ployers, on the other hand will get
the right to compel the association of
employees to appear in court in case of
strike. When either party brings
the other into court both parties are
to be bound by the courts decision.
The act will apply only to regi tered
laborers and Incorporated associations
and protect employers against actions
brought by laborers not connected
with any organization. Washington

CATHERINE AND STORING corn

The methods of gathering and stor.
ing corn intended for planting were
given by $40 Western farmers last
year. The great care used in select.
ing and preserving the seed was a
matter of surprise and qualification.
About half of the $40 go through the
fields as soon as the corn begins to
ripen and gather ears of the most de-
sirable shape and those which mature
first. Most of the remainder wait
until husking time, then placing box
or barrel in one end of the wagon
keep separate such ears as come near
est their idea of first-class corn. Some
select the best ears when unloading at
the crib. One waits until planting
time, then goes TO the crib and picks
out his seed. But probably the most
important pnrt of the whole opera.
ton is curing and storing. The
nhuiu pOiut 10 W uly ~ pciVio hVcn-
ing weather sets in. This is accom-.
plished by hanging to rafters in an
open shed by means of the husks or
wires, stacking the ears like cord wood
on boards placed overhead in q gran
ary, machinery shed, etc, but the
most commonly recommended method
was drying by artificial heat. This on
small scale is easily accomplished
by placing the corn in room over
the kitchen through which the chin
ney or stovepipe passes, or putting
the ears on shelves in the kitchen near
the stove. When they are thoroughly
dried, and this can usually be accom-
plished before very cold weather, place
in boxes or barrels protected from
mice and rats and store in some build
ing which is free from moisture. All
those who reported upon these meth
oes claim they never have any diff.
Guilty in getting n good stand. Thus
with very little extra labor, the trouble
experienced in some localities from
defective seed corn is easily avoided.

FUR AS A TRIMMING.

Fur is everywhere this season. It
is used rs trimming for the evening
gown, rs we'll as the street costume.
Many of the most fashionable even
ing dresses are trimmed this season
with fur, combined with jeweled lace.
II makes gorgeous trimming. A
gown of changeable pink moire re-
Gently fashioned was trimmed with
lace wrought with pink and pale
green pearls and combined with bands
of sealskin. Fur exquisitely en-
broidered is also the vogue as q
trimming for evening gowns Of
light silk. II is very effective to have
band of dark fur outlining the low
cut neck of an evening gown, and from
the fur q shower Of jeweled lace may
fall. Epaulettes of fur shaped like q
deep Vandyke point and framed in
gold or jewels, are novel addition to
the short pulled sleeve. = The ultra
fashionable fur Of tho hour is Hudson
Bay sable, but the average woman,
who is chic, but not member Of the
Four Hundred, contents herself with
the popular mink.-New York World.

DEGONIAS,

There are no plants which will grow
more readily than begonias. Any
one who has had success with gerani-
ums can grow begonias successfully.
The varieties are quite numerous, but
If limited to one l would always take
the Rubra. 1t is lovely plant with
light green leaves and panicles Of
coral bloom. Begonia Vernon is an
other desirable plant, blooming al
most continually; the white is the
prettiest, being white with delicate
tinge of pink.
For foliage the Rex is, of course,
unsurpassed. The leaves are large
and richly decorated in rings with the
most striking colors. The Rex re.
quires more care than ordinary be-
gonias. In watering them care should
be taken that no water gets on the
leaves, as it causes spots to appear and
finally Injuries the plant. They should
never be placed in crowded situa.
tion, as the leaves are SO easily broken,
but placed upon a bracket they are
certainly lovely plants.
The tuberous-rooted begonias are
beautiful. To grow out of doors in
beds, start from March to June, give
partial shade and there will be pro-
fusion of flowers, either double or
single.
AS house plants begonias should be
given the same treatment as geran-
iums aud are in fact, just as easily
grown. Detroit Free Press.

THE BEST ROOTS FOR COWS.

The best kinds of roots for feeding
cows are those that have no strong
taste or smell, such as corrots, man
gels, beets and parsnips, Turnips of
all kinds are to be avoided as food for
cows giving milk, although by the ex-
ercise of care in feeding them the ill
effect on the milk may be prevented.
This is done by feeding them immedi-
ately after milking; then the odor will
pass off through the cows skin before
the next milking. But as there are
so many better roots, and most OF
them will yield more than any kind of
turnip will, it is better to grow these
than turaips. Sugar beets are
the most nutritious OF all the roots.
as they have twelve or more per cent.
of sugar in them, and an acre of good
land will yield twelve to twenty tons
of them. But no kind of roots alone
will make good milk, as they contain
80 much water, having from eighty to
ninety per cent Of it in them. Then
