He Was a sneezer.

Three shabby girls and a shabby man
got into north-bound car at the post
Office the other day; soon after the man
sneezed, says the Chicago Times. He
and the girls were strangers to each
| other, but the sauciest of the three girls
laughed when he sneezed. The man
| took no special notice of her, but soon
he sneezed again and again, and then all
three of the girls giggled and SO did the
man. In the next three blocks the man
| sneezed half dozen times, and at each
sneeze the sauciest of the girls said
| something and the others laughed. By
this time the other passengers were in
terested and everybody awaited the
man'saneeze. He Kept it up at inter
vals for the. next half mile, and every
body in the ear roafed at each explosion.
New passengers gotin to find the whole
car in coHvulsions. Staid persons at
! first tried not to laugh, but when the
mans face twitched as his sneeze hung
fire and the saueiest girl cried, ';Watch
him go off," even they had to join in the
I fun.
| Passengers came and went, but the
man and the three girls remained.
Every body came in sober and went out
! laughing, and after the thing had been
going on for three miles the passengers
who got in at the postofice were in
doubt whether the man had fever or was
only an excellent facial contortionist.

AS TO WATERING COWS.

An European experiment in water
ing dairy COWS shows that COWS always
in their stable gave much better re-
suits when changed back where they
could get water twice day. It was
found that the milk yield increased
where the COWS had access to water at
will, and no decrease of fat contents
occurred. The daily increase Of milk
was small, but as estimated it would
improve the yield forty gallons per
cow per year. A noticeable feature
of the experiment is that the COWS
drank little less when permitted to
drink at will than when furnished
water twice day.
By drinking often there was less
chilling of the stomach than where
water had to be taken twice day, and
each time in large quantities. The
digestion was improved, as with each
small draught of water some gastric
Juice was secreted and went with it,

CHRISTIAN PRIVILEGES.

We miss half the joyous experiences OF the
Christian life because we persist IN placing
ourselves where they cannot come. We do
not come in a receptive attitude before God,
and therefore we 60 away'empty handed. Ii
we chose to make our home under the shadow
of mountain we ought not to complain that
the sunlight does not enter there. II we seek
a dwelling place in cavern underground.
we ought not to cry out against God Tor not
giving us q blue sky. and green fields and
flowers and birds. 1t is all our own doing.
The world is wide, and full Of pleasant places
wherein we might fix our abode. II we choose
shadows, darkness and dreariness, shall God
be blamed? Do we complain because we
have not larger measure OF the spirit OF
grace and love in our hearts? DO we some
times feel that God Is afar from us. that the
way Is dark. and the burdens very heavy?
Do we mourn over our coldness and !ndifer-
ence to spiritual things? If this be true. it
may be we'll for us to ask ourselves whether
it is or not. on the whole, our own fault. Is
there nothing standing between us and God?
Surely II we have not fullness of spiritual
gifts, it is not because Of the slackness OF the
Giver, or because of an inSufficiency OF
grace, mercy and love. If our
Christian life is not full OF JOY and
hope. as it should be, it is because we do not
open the way for it to flow in upon us from

are all about us. like the sunlight, and we
have only to open our hearts to let them in.
If we do not open to Him who says. BE
hold I stand ut the door and knock, shall we
complain that he does not come in and sup
with us, and we with him? If we steep our
hearts in worldliness. and shut out from our
daily lives oil thought of God. need we Won

ence?-Critcrion.

THE FLOWER GARDEN.

Make your flower garden near tht
house, where you can spend few
moments every day. A border les:
than three feet wide is most con
venient in working and wedding, and
can be made any shape desired.
Let the beds be we'll drained. On
some soils, simply raising the earth E
few inches above the grass plat is suffi
cient. Heavy soils often require
understanding.
The ideal soil for flower culture is 6
sandy, clay loan, and whatever foun.
dation you have, Try to work up to
that standard. The sand gives warmth
and mellowness, the clay gives strength
and holds moisture, while the loan o,
vegetable mold is immediate plant
food. AS fertilizer, I prefer sweep.
ings from the chicken houses, on
account of freedom from weed seeds
also a weekly application of liquid
manure.
One must be governed by locality in
the selection OF a variety of flowers.
Have good proportion of perennials
as standbys when the ANIMALS are com
ing on. And don't forget the bulbs,
from the struggling snowdrop of
spring to the blazing gladiolus of
autumn. In bed devoted to bulbs
SOW n few seeds of nemophila and
portulaca, to give profusion of low
bloom during the summer. For plants,
lattice with sweet peas, nasturtlum
or morning glories to run over it, is
pretty.
The seeds for early ANIMALS may be
sovu in boxes during March or April,
and kept in sunny window in the
house. On the Pacific coast they may
be planted in the fall in your garden,
making harder plants than when
started IN the house.
Finally, remember that the more
flowers you gather. the better your
plants will bloom, and your neighbors'
hearts will be cheered by few sweet
blossoms. Farm, Field and Preside.

articles make the subject appear vefyt
complex to most farmers and would
discourage a great many from keeping
accounts at all. The fact seems to be-
lost sight of that bookkeeping is busi-e
ness as well as farming, and that it
takes great deal of study and prac-
tice to be proficient in either. But
this should not discourage farmer
from keeping books-at least, from
keeping books as do. Inever studied
bookkeeping, and yet keep accounts,
and we'll enough, I think, for most
practical purposes. :;
I use only two books, one of which
I divide into departments covering all
the important industries of the farm
When we cover our strawberries in
winter I make note of it in the space
devoted to strawberries, or when We
water patch of celery the fact Is en-
tered under the head of irrigation,
etc., only those things are written In
the journal which I shall want to refer
to in the future. The other book ID
devoted strictly to the daily cash ac-
counts. ... .....a..
Two pages are used for every
month, one for expenses, the other for
receipts; they are ruled off into
columns, which have headings, such
as (on the expenses side) "Hired
Labor" Good" Groceries" and a.
many more as would be of interest. y
and what expenses do not come under
these headings are put under the head
ing Miscellaneous" The receipts arc
entered in the same way and sales Of
farm produce are also entered in the
other book in the proper Departments
After the receipts and expenses are
made out the accounts are balanced,
which is done by subtracting the
days expenses from receipts and add
ing remainder to balance of evening
before, which shows the amount OF
cash on hand, or by reversing the
operation if expenses exceed receipts.
By this method I know just where
every cent has gone and where every
cent comes from, and, though you are
bound to come to some knotty points
once in a while, every farmer or farm
er's boy can keep his accounts, and If
he gets started and sticks to it for Q
few weeks he will only be sorry that
he did not begin years ago.

POULTRY PIcKINGS.

A young hen lays larger litter than
the old hen. 1t is probable that the
first and second years of hens life
are the most productive of eggs. How
improbable then to kill off the young
fowls and leave the aged ones.
Do not give all the fruit and vege.
table psrings to the pigs; let the poul,
try have share.
Is the house overcrowded? Thin
out the poorer specimens and give the
others more room. The flock will pay
better.
Wood ashes, besides setting free the
ammonia of the droppings, bleaches
the shanks of the fowls and should not
be emptied in the poultry house.
A steel trap properly set will catch
the 'possum that kills the chickens.
Set it inside of the house in front o1
the opening where the varmint enters,
protecting it from the fowls by boards
or a wire screen.
If there are no outer sheds with 9
sunny exposure for the flock to frequent
they had better be confined to the
house. Wading in slush and standing
in winter wind do not promote health
nor induce laying.
=. Cooked food fed warm is very much
more economical and profitable than
raw food. The grains may be cooked
in quantity and fed cold, as they will
keep for weeks in cold weather. Lay.
ing hens ought to enjoy steaming
mash containing some meat scraps
every morning. Thin, watery food
can't be expected to supply material
for eggs. Milk is excellent, and here
is another place where winter dairy
ing pays. New York Observer.
