DoNT's FOR THE WINDOW GARDEN.

Don't forget that the plants will re-
quire plenty of fresh air on sunny
days. or they will resent the change
from their summer quarters.
Don't leave the door or window
open too long, unless the weather is
very mild, or the plants will become
chilled
Don't allow direct draught on the
plants, especially if the air is cold.
Admit it through door or window at
some distance from the plant shelves.
Don't give too much water or try to
force the plants. Give them time to
become accustomed to their winter
quarters.
Don't forget to search for the cracks
that viii let in the keen air. Stuff
them with folded newspapers,
Don't be sorry to give your only

A Double Fish.

double fish, or rather two fishes
joined together by a growth similar to
the connection between the Siamese
twins, was caught at Creve C1ur Lake
recently under peculiar circumstances.
William Schaefer, of the Grand Bill
lard Hall, and his friend Billie Ben
nett, before going on fishing trip to
Creve C9ur, made n friendly wager,
by the terms of which the one who had
the least success should, on their re-
turn, entertain the other at Il dinner.
The score stood fifty-one to fifty in
Billie's favor, when Schaefer's line
tautened and he landed jack salmon.
On examining the fish he was astound-
ed to learn that his catch was a freak.
There were two fishes, perfect in every
way, between whom there was
growth which bound them together.
The growth was just below the gills.
THAT ties us, said Bennett.
IL guess not, Sehaefer replied.
~ have two fishes here. This makes
me ffty-two to your fifty-one.
"But you only caught one, argued
Bennett
"How's that? Icaught them both,
urged sehaefer.
"Hod' Stevens, the superintendent
OF the lake, was asked to decide
whether the piscatorial dual should he
counted as unit or more. Stevens
listened to the arguments of both aud
acknowledged his inability to satisfy
them ON the point, and suggested that
the matter be left to old John Morgan,
who had been fisherman at Creve
C9ur Lake since 40 Morgan, after
hearing both sides, decided in Schae
fer's favor.
"But, said Bennett, 1--WE were
only 10 count fish caught with hook.
Now, ouly one of these fish bit az the
bait. The hook was only IN one
iish'a mouth.

How the Nose Works.

In ordinary respiration the nose
recognizes only pronounced odors,
since the flaments of the olfactory
nerve are distributed only in the up
per thiitFof the lining membrane of
its foss@, and in ordinary breathing
the air passes directly through the
lower half of these cavities. Hence,
a modified respiratory etfort-a quick,
forced inspiration or ''snitf'-is usu-
ally necessary in order to bring air
carrying odoriferous particles to the
olfactory nerve endings.
Nevertheless, whenever air mixed
with odorous gases and noxious par
ticles is inhaled through the nose
during few successive ordinary res
pirations, the olfactory sense is
awakened to knowledge of their
presence through the law of diffusion
of gases, in virtue of which the odor
Gus particles are conveyed to the
superior fossa of the nose, and thence
to the terminal tilaments of the oil
factory nerve. Thus, to certain ex-
tent, the sense of smell is preservative
of health.-New York Commercial
Advertiser. as

When farmers can get only fifty
three cents per bushel for wheat-that
was the amount received by some of
our st. Louis County farmers for good
winter wheat--it will not do to leave
the mower or reaper at the end of the
last round of last seasons harvest.
Nor will it do to leave the plow and
harrow where last used, either in the
furrow OF turned up on the handles
Timbers bent by steam will lose their
artificial form or shape when exposed
to all the weathers of the season. Al
most all farm tools or implements have
thus received an artificial shape for
the better adaptation to the labor for
which they were constructed. This
being the case, no farmer can afford
to leave his tools and implements with
out protection.
If no better means can be afforded
by way of a regular tool house or shop,
few poles and crutches can be
placed as to receive covering of
marsh or swamp hay or of rye or
wheat straw. Often this can be made
rs sort of '1eanto' to Il stable, and
it can be made tight and secure from
wet and affording additional warmth
and support for general stabling.
There is no time to lose to make
things snug in this direction.
1t is granted that nowadays q good
farm wagon or II reaper or mower or a
hay rake can be had for about half the
cost of the same article dozen years
ago, but that is no reason why they
should not be taken care Of "a pen

IMpRovINa COMMON COWS.

The first effort at improvement of
COWS is TO feed them in the best man
ner. If they are kept for dairy pur-
poses the feed should he of the best
clover hay, with from four to ten
pounds of mixed cornmeal and bran
daily in two feeds. The quantity of
food should be gauged by the appetite
of each COW aud its perfect digestion.

The Cantileyar Bridge.

A cantilever bridge is one in which
the span is formed by bracket-shaped
trusses extending inward from the sup
ports and connected in the middle
either directly or by means of third
truss. If the supports are piers they
are placed near or at the centre OF the
bracket truss, and the outer ends are
made to counterbalance the weight of
the inner ends. You can make crude
cantilever yourself. Place two boards
end to end over carpenters horses so
that their inner ends shall be some
distance apart. Lay board across
the inner ends and fasten the outer
ends so that they will sustain weights
placed on the centre board. The chief
advantage of cantilever bridge is
that it can be built without scaffold
being used to get the central truss
into position The two arms are
pushed out, one from either pier or
bank. When they are made fast the
central truss is pushed out on one
arm, until spanning the interval, it is
made fast to the other arm. The word
comes from the Latin quanta libra,
meaning "of what weight. 1t is said
that japanese devised the bridge;
certainly an ignorant Mexican Indian
had used one on his farm as long ago
as 1850. Probably the Jap had an
ticipated him, however. New York

HOW TO COOK GAME.

A great many housekeepers are
chary about cooking game, as though
there were some mystery in its proper
preparation, and good deal of non
sense has been talked about ''rare'
game which has perplexed and warned
off the ordinary person, who has no
appetite for raw flesh. AS a rule, all
dark -feshed birds, like ducks and
grouse, should be cooked about as rare
as roast beef, so that the blood runs
from the knife. Birds with white
flesh, like partridge, should be as well
done rs barnyard fowl. A simple
rule for time allows eighteen or twenty
minutes roasting for either canvas
back or redhead duck, fifteen minutes
for teal, eighteen or twenty minutes
for grouse, twelve or fifteen minutes
for doe birds, ten minutes for either
plover or woodcock, and eight or ten
minutes for English snipe. Tender,
plump quail require from fifteen to
eighteen minutes, and the average
plump partridge from thirty-fve to
forty minutes. This implies the brisk
est heat the range oven can give, n
heat that will turn a sheet of writing
paper dark brown in ten minutes. =

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Too heavy feeding and want of ex-
ercise tend to barrenness.
Keeping fowls on hard runs or floors
will cause swollen feet or legs.
Hens in confinement need to have
egg-shell material supplied to them.
Chickens Will keep healthier if they
can have loose ground to scratch over.
Any kind of poultry may be i'm
proved by careful selection and
breeding.
When fowls are closely confined the
runs need spading up occasionally to
prevent them from becoming too foul.
Early broilers usually prove very
profitable. Push the growth until they
will average two pounds and then sell.
Even in winter, if the hens are ex-
pected to lay regularly, care must be
taken not to let them become too fat.
The principal reason why cooked
food fattens the fowls more rapidly is
because it is much more easily digest
ed.
A small quantity of sunfower seed
given occasionally will add to the gloss
of the plumage handful to dozen
fowls will be enough.
If early broilers are to be raised,
especially if they are hatched in an in
cubator, good brooder will be found
almost indispensable.
1t will pay to sell all the common
turkeys and make new start with
some of the better breeds like the
Bronze or Narragansett.
Bran, ground oats and cornmeal
make one of the best rations for grow
ing chickens. 1t may be improved
somewhat by baking and then crumbl-
ing
Poultry is generally cheap at this
season on account of the large quanti-
ties of it sent to market. Often it will
pay to keep and feed until little
later.
The nests should be dark, warm and
supplied with good nesting material,
which should be changed regularly,
even in winter, to prevent its becoming
too foul.
In selecting out the hens, if there
are any that have proved themselves
exceptionally good mothers, it will pay
to keep them over if they are past two
years old.
Setting hens are scarce IN winter, so
if early chickens are wanted good in
cubator will be necessary, the size de-
pending upon the number of chickens
to be hatched.
Leaves or chaff make good litter to
scatter on the floor, and by throwing
grain among it the fowls will be kept
busy scratching it over, and in this
way take exercise.
One of the principal itemsi in raising
chickens in the brooder is warmth. 1t
they get chilled they will crowd to-
gether in brooder SO closely that
some will be smothered.
Wheat is one of the best grains for
laying hens. 1t is rich in material for
growth, while stimulating to the egg
functions. At present prices it can
hardly be considered an expensive
feed.
With good treatment pullets hatched
in February will lay in September;
those Matched in March will lay in
October, while those Matched in April
will usually begin layingin December.

Tariff and Taxation.

Tariff duties and internal revenue taxation
on incomes and corporations are exciting
public interest but of quite as much interest
are those things which tax the system and
require at once an external remedy. On this
subject, with special recommendation, Mr..
Pierce d. Brown, Bridgewater, Mass, says !:
"In accidents from all. kinds of athletic
sports, to reduce sprans and bruises. have
used st. Jacobs Oil, and always founl it to

Mangum, Okla, writes: 81 have used ST.
Jacobs Oil for sprains and rheumatism and
would not be without it for anything. Mr..
R. Ledbetter, Denton, Texas, says: II have
used st. Jacobs Oil, and it is the only thing
| ever saw that would cure toothache in ten
minutes time, and it is usually prompt and
sure for frost bites. Al ofthesa communica-
tions are of recent date showing uuabated

The fact that the ''parasol anti of
the West Indies has grown to be such
a pest that the Government of Trini-
dad has had to adopt appropriate legis-
lation against its ravages, draws atten-
tion to the remarkable habits of the
little creature. It has been definitely
determined that they do not cut the
circular bits out of the leaves that they
bear away so like a parasol over their
heads, or'the purpose of eating them
or for nest lining, as has been suggest
ed. These bits of leaves are simply
wanted as the soil on which to cult
vate certain sort of fungus that they
feed upon; and the ants are as expert
in its culture as is any market gardener
of Paris in the growing of his beloved
mushrooms. A nest of these tiny agri-
culturists has thus been described by
the director of public works in Trini-
dad who has had them on his table:
Each forager dropped his portion of
leaf i'll the nest, and it was taken up
by small worker and carried to
clear space to be cleaned. 1t was then
taken in hand by the large workers,
which, after licking it with their
tongues, reduced it to small black
ball of pulp. These balls were built
on the edge of the already formed fun
gus bed and slightly smoothed down.
The new surface was then planted with
portions of the fungus brought from
other parts of the nest. Each piece is
put in separately, and the ants know
exactly how far apart the plants should
be. 1t sometimes looks as if the bits
of fungus had been put in too scantily
in places, yet in about forty hours (if
the humidity has been properly regu-
lated it is all evenly covered with a
mantle as of very fine snow" When
it Is remembered that most persons
who have tried the cultivation of edible
fungi have failed because of the diff
culties arising from the handling of
the spores and the maintenance of the
needed humidity, it almost seems that
we must concede to these tiny crea-
lures greater degree of agricultural
skill than is possessed by the average
farmer.

The Kings Death-CIOck.

In the courtyard of the palace of
Versailles is clock with one hand,
called "L'Horloge de la Mort du Roi. y
1t contains no works, but consists
merely of face IN the form of sun,
surrounded by rays. On the death of
king the hand is set to the moment
of his demise, and remains unaltered
till his successor has rejoined him in
the grave. This custom originated
under Louis XIII, and continued till
the revolution. 1t was revived on the
death of Louis XVIII, and the hand
still continues fixed on the precise
moment of that monarch's death. -

BRAN AS POULTRY FOOD.

One advantage possessed by bran is
that it contains a fair proportion of
the phosphates, and for that reason
may be used with the ration in order
to render it more complete. We do
not approve of feeding it in the soft
condition if it can be used by sprink-
ling it on cut clover that has been
scalded, though mess of scalded
bran and ground oats, early in the
morning of cold winter day, is very
invigorating and nourishing. Even
when the food is not varied some ad-
vantage may be derived, by way of
compensation for omission of certain
foods, by the use of bran and linseed
meal. Two pounds of bran, mixed
with one pound of linseed meal and n
pound of ground meat, fed to the hens
once day, allowing half pint of the
mixture to ten hens, will greatly add
to the egg-producing materials. As a
food for chicks, bran should always be
scalded and allowed to stand an hour
or two in order to soften. AS ma
terial on the floor of brooders to alb
sorb the moisture, it is excellent, and
for packing eggs it serves well as a
protection against breakage. Farm

CARE OF ORCHARDS.

The only way to keep up an orchard
is to plant some trees every year.
Most people neglect this, and when
they do plant the trees they set them
too close together, so that the roots
intertwine and fruit production is
checked.
Apple trees should be set at least
thirty feet apart each way. 1t is a
mistake to imagine an orchard will
take care of itself. Trees require the
attention of the owner just as well as
stock or farm crops, and neglect will
be repaid in the same fashion. If you
are not willing to give proper care, it
is better to cut the trees down and
plow up the land. 1t is useless to ex-
pect to get something for nothing. =
