Feeding the Calf.

To the average dairy farmer this is q
subject of but little interest, for he
much prefers to sell at once rather
than "bother" with the "hand-raising"
of the calves that come almost month
ly in his stables. But to the farmers
wife it is matter of great import
ance- She it is who usually has the
"bother" alluded to; she it is that
hand raises the calves and frequently
sees not q dollar of the money that
they bring in when matured. Truly
there is q great deal Of trouble involved
in solae methods of calf feeding, but
it is as true that the work may be
much simplified if thought is given to
it rather than mere labor and old
fashioned ideas. Is there, for in
stance, any sense or necessity for feed
ing each calf by itself in rotation as is
SO often done? We see none. Neither
is it good plan to allow all of the
calves to drink out of a trough like
pigs. The best plan we have ever
seen or heard of-unless it be to pro-
vide artificial teats and udders-is to
construct a calf stanchion in lot or
pen and teach the youngsters to come

cows do to receive their separate ra-
tions from pals set in front of them
secure from the interference of the
other calves. AS to food we do not
mean to say a great deal. Every
farmers wife knows that nothing is so
good as milk for young calf, but too
often forgets that the milk must
be in proper condition for the calves
to drink. Trouble frequently occurs
when the milk is given when sour or
when overlooked or scalded, SO that
care should be taken to keep every
utensil from which calves are fed as
scrupulously clean as are the mill
cans-on some farms! As to scalding
we think that the utensil should re-
ceive all of it, for if the milk be pure
warming is sufficient and scalding
deleterious. Milk heated to a rev
milk warrnness is most suitable for
very young calves, and will not us u
rule cause securing; the latter COM
plant is but sign that the vessels
are foul, the milk sour or tainted

Poultry Notes.


FULL liberty and outdoor roots at

faction.
Bowel troubles seem to be more
prevalent in turkeys than any other
disease, and a bird that gets sick is
very apt to die.
BE careful about pouring out brine
or leaving pieces of salt, salt meat or
salt fish lying around, you are liable
to lose your turkeys if you do.
WESTERN breeders agree that one
can seldom obtain thirty chicks from o
young gobbler, and that a-year-old
is better than one years old.
If a flock becomes diseased the land
which they wander over is liable to
become contaminated and infect other
fiocks that occupy the same ground.
Fowls have been saved when af-
ficted with diarrhea by administer
ing two or three drops of liquid cam
phor on bread crumbs every half hour.
CORN is all right when turkeys can
find their own green food and insect
ration to go on with it, but when they
get little exercise they become alb
normally fat.

1t is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder IS
the purest and strongest of all the baking powders.
The purest baking powder makes the finest sweet

Why should not every housekeeper avail hersef

Avoid all baking powders sold with gift

Porterhouse and Tend erloln.

Porterhouse and Tenderloln.
The Washington Post says: A car
cass of beef is cut into nineteen pieces.
All of the pieces and the names are in
the dictionary. Look at the list and
you will not find the names tender
loin" and 'porterhouse"-two names
that the inexperienced buyer has al
ways on his lips. The porterhouse is
delusion and snare in ninety-nine
cases out of one hundred. The ten
derloin is the thick part of the sirloin
after few round bone steaks have
been cut off, and it is called fllet de
boeuf. 1t makes q choice piece for
roasting, but If not sold in lump, is
cut into sirloin steaks of three grades.
The first and second grades are tech
nically 'hip sirloin steak" and "fat
bone sir,loin steak" These are the
tenderloA. steaks that the young
housewife pays extra for. There are
not over six Of each kind in one car
cass, SO the chances are that she pays
her good money for q third-cut, or
..round- bone" sirloin, which is itself
capital steak.
Porterhouse steaks are cut from the
small-end sirloin steak, and one car
cass contains but few of them. In
genious butchers understand the knack
Of cutting the small-end sirloin so as
to include other portions of the beef,
thus enabling them to sell both at
porterhouse prices.
Good beef has juicy or sappy ap-
pearance, with q fine smooth grain,
which is easily noticed. The fat, both
outside and through the muscles, pre-
sents clean, straw-colored appear
ance. The flesh should be cherry red.
When meat rises quickly after being
pressed it may be considered prime.
When the dent made by pressing rises
slowly or not at all, depend upon it the
beef is poor.

Charged with Gripping an Engine.

Sergeants Kurtz and Barlow arrested Fred
King, a shiftless character, yesterday after
noon, on charges of malicious trespass and
lettering. He was seen lettering around the
railroad tracks, and especially those of the
Union railroad, during the strike trouble in
this city. The officers were told by Super
intendent Darlington, of the Pennsylvania
road, before the arrest was made, that he
suspected King of being a party to the
disabling of the Panhandle engine on the
j., NJ. & l.. tracks near the hominy mills
during the leat of the strike. The officers
investigated the matter a little and found
that Kings actions at that time were very
suspicious, and so arrested him. Mr.. Oar
lington thinks he has sufficient evidence to
convict King on that charge. The names
of several men who were with him on that
day are known, and ,ne police are consid-

STRANGE HUMAN BEINGS.
The Little Esquimax Women with the
Big ShOw-Studies in Dress Reform.

The little Esquimaux women who have
joined the Barnum & Bailey show, which
will exhibit in Indianapolis next Monday,
are source of great interest to the women
who visit this exhibit. Their costume is
simplicity itself. The lower garments are
a combination of boots and trousers of
dressed deerskin, and with water-tght
seams, while a short tunic of the same ma
terial fringed heavily at the hem, falls
nearly to the knees. In the back this tunc
is cut very much in the style of the long
tailed dress coats, with rounded bottom,
just now worn by the heavy swells. The
mother of the little baby, Columbia, carries
her slung between the shoulders in a pouch
bound to the mothers body by thongs of
reindeer skin, very much as the papoose
of the Indian squaw is carried.
The dress-reformers can find some very
pertinent suggestions in this dress of the
Esquimaux, well as some others of the
exhibition There is with the Cossacks the
Princess Freda, the wife of the Prince
Dimitri, who was a Cossack prince of infiu-
ence while the Caucasus was an independ-
ent country, but who is now chieftain in
the Russian province of Kobarda, and an
officer in the Cars frontier guard. The
Princess wears high boots and trousers,
with a long coat or tunic bound about her
waist. Upon her shapely form the costume
appears graceful, becoming and convenient,
and a protest against the impeding skirts
worn by her unemancipated sisters in coun-
tries Boosting of greater civilization than
her own. She rides her horse man fashion,
and sits in the saddle with perfect conf
dence and ease. 1t is rather startling to
observe that while the Javanese and Singh
alese women wear what looks like trouS
ers, but what is really a skirt with the
edge drawn forward between the legs, and
tucked under the belt, the men appear in
full flowing skirts, reversal of our own
custom.
This feature Of the show, with its weird
music, it's strange dances and its illustra-
tons of the racial characteristics and tribal
customs of many little known peoples, is
proving one of the greatest attractions on
the present tour of the famous circus.
