nd?-New York World
RAISING HORSES TO SELL.

Generally the farmer cannot afford
to raise geldings and keep them on the
farm for team. He can make them
pay very well if he will keep them un-
til they are four or five years old, and
then sell, taking care in the meantime
to break them well, so as to get work
enough out of them to pay for their
keep. A horse that has been given
good care SO rs to make steady growth
and development from the time he was
foaled ought to be broken to light
work when past two years old, taking
care that only light work is given him
and not too much of that. Then,
whenever good fair price can be
realized for them, unless they are
needed on the farm, and are worth
more to you than the price offered, it
will be best to sell.
With good young mares, however,
the case is different. The better the
young mares are the stronger the
reason why they should be kept on the
farm for breeding. No farmer can
afford to sell the best of his animals of
any kind, especially those that he can
use to good advantage in improving
his stock. By mating full blooded
sire to carefully selected mares, good
grade colts may be secured. Then if
in turn the very best of these grade
mares are selected and again mated to
pure-bred stations still further i'm
provement is made.
By keeping the best and breeding in
this way, selling all that are needed on
the farm, considerable improvement
in quality of the horses can be made.
Keep mares and young, growing horses
to do the necessary work of the farm,
keeping the young horses until they
are reasonably well matured and thus
selling whenever fair price is offered.
In this way considerable work can be
gotten out of the horses while they
are growing, and by taking care to
keep them in good condition they can
be marketed at any time.
But if the best mares are sold off,
and what cannot be sold are bred un-
der present conditions, the colts, even
when reasonably well grown, will be
hard to sell Mt any price. The cost of
raising the one is as much as the other,
and the difference in value when ready
to market represents to n considerable
extent the difference in the profits. -

HOW TO WASH TABLE LINEN.

Be sure that your linen goes into no
vessel that is not clean and freshly
rinsed. See that it is put to boil in
side bag of clean cheese cloth. If
stained, wet the spots with alcohol,
and wash out in clear cold water before
allowing suds to touch it. Stains of
milk or soft eggs must be soaked in
clear cold water for ten minutes when
washed. Use mild white soap, or
the Brown Windsor that comesin long
bars. Make a strong lather, only let
ting the soap touch the fabric at some
obstinate grease spot. Tea cloths or
others with delicate colors wash
brighter if handful of salt is added
to the first suds, which should be bare
ly lukewarm. The second may be hot
ter Wash quickly through both.
Fold smoothly for the wringer, then
pop into your bag and set to boil in
cold water for ten minutes. Rinse
first in hot, then i'll lukewarm water.
Have your bluing water cold and free
from specks of color. Dip your linen
in very thin starch containing u sus-
picion of bluing, and hang, if possible,
in the sun. See that the line is clean.
Take pains to hang each piece square,
as if dried awry it will be very hard to
make 1t even again.
Let everything dry thoroughly and
do not dampen or fold until little
before ironing time. After a cloth is
properly wet, pull the diagonal COR
ners as hard as possible and fold with
length-wise crease through the mid
die. Roll smooth and tight and let it
lie for twenty minutes. For rich da-
mask or embroidered cloths put an
extra blanket on the ironing table
under its muslin cover. Lay the en-
broidered part smoothly over it, right
side down and press with a heavy iron
Just below scorching heat. When al
most dry and very smooth, turn and
iron on the right side, using very
light irons on the embroidery and
heavier ones on the plain round.
Stretch the fabric well with the hands
before pressing embroidery.
When the right side is properly
done, fold il lengthwise along the mid
die, then begin at one end and lay
about six inches-lightly over; do not
fold it down but roll until all the
length is coiled Go over the cloth
twice or thrice with hot iron, chang,
ing irons Frequently. Iron till tho
pattern shows plain on glossy white
surface. III not thoroughly dry when
ironed, hang upon the horse for an
hour or two, then fold or roll TO such
compass rs required for the closet. -

SEPARATOR MILK FOR CHEESE.

In Western farmers institute Pro-
fessor Babcock expresses himself
strongly in favor of separator milk as
making a better cheese and one likely
to hold good flavor longer than did
cheese made from milk not put through
this process. The cream and milk are
run together through a sieve after sep
arating SO as to mix it thoroughly,
but there are certain offensive matters
that come out of the separating that
can be kept distinct from the cream.
These are trifling in amount, but when
set to work by the rennet their effect
after two or three months is to de-
stroy the flavor of the cheese. Up to
that time cheese from whole milk and
that which has been put through the
separator cannot be distinguished. -

Not corporations alone make the best
trusts, for morally speaking we place reliance
in things most successful, and thereby estab-
lish most substantial trust, and this is the
way to do it. "My wife, says Mr. J. W.
Ames, Fairmont, Neb., suffered intensely
with sciatica, and was helpless. I tried many
things to no purpose. Although the doctors
said no got bottle of st. Jacobs Oil and
tried it. 1t stopped the pain and in a short
time she had no use for crutches.n Now

DISEASE OF FOWLS.

Hens are subject to several diseases,
but mostly those of the throat and the
intestines. The first class is due to
exposure to cold and damp, or to con-
tagion. The latter is the result of bad
feeding and indigestion. The most
prevalent of the first class of diseases
is one known as roup, which is very
similar to the human diphtheria, and,
like that, exceedingly contagious. 1t
appears as thick adherent mucus or
cheesy matter in the throat and mouth,
stopping the breathing and making the
swallowing difficult. The head swells,
and of course the birds stop eating.
The remedy for this disease is to wash
the mouth clean with warm vinegar
and drop pinch of powdered chlorate
of potash in the throat. The food
should be soft, and little hyposul-
phate of soda should be dissolved in
the drinking water. Excessive warmth
is not desirable for fowls in the win
ter, only such as will keep the tenn
perature at night of not less than fifty
degrees. Another frequent disease is
that of the liver, by which the nerves
of the lower limbs are so affected that
the birds cannot walk. This disease
resembles that of pigs by which the
hind legs become useless and are
dragged about as the animal moves.
Overlooking is the common cause of
this disorder, and the remedy is to
stop the cause, giving no food for two
or three days, but only water, and then
beginning with small feeds, gradually
increased. New York Times.

A Busy Household.

Busy-handed must have been the
women-folk of century and half
ago. 1t 10 recorded that one family in
Newport, r. l., made, in the space of
eighteen months, 4S7 yards of cloth
carding, spinning, dyeing and weav-
ing every inch of material used, and
also accomplished the knitting of
thirty-six pairs of stockings-not the
thin, delicate, and often fimsy ho-
siery seen nowadays, but such as
would bear much heavy use, and even
be 'handed down to posterity." 1t is
added that another Newport family
distinguished themselves by making,
in the space of four years, $50 yards
of woolen cloth, two coverlets, two
bedticks, and all the stockings needed
for the family. Detroit Free Press.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
GET A STOOL.

Women who have much housework
to do should provide themselves with
a cheap stool, high enough to allow a
free use of the arms. In this way they
may spare themselves much unneces-
sary standing, as ironing, dishwash-
ing and multitudinous household
duties that are generally gone through
with while upon the feet may be dis
posed of quite as satisfactorily in a
sitting posture. 1t is rest, too, from
time to time, to draw the feet up upon
the rounds of the stool, taking ali the
weight of the body off the floor. New
