clear the way for the offering of amendments.
but the order under which the committee was
operating blocked all attempts at an under
standing and made futile the efforts of members
TO amend the anti-Options bill. Nothing was
accomplished, however.
Mr.. GrOsvenOr being recognized, spoke in
favor Of the bill
The question Of amendments having again
obtruded itself, the Chairman decided that the
best way to settle il finally would be by having
the committee rise and the question decided
In the House. Accordingly the committee
srose, and after some squabbling a compromise
was effected whereby the order of yesterday
was modified by closing general debate this even

which hr. Hatch was TO be allowed an hour

In the Senate, the Finance Committee sus-
ssined its first defeat in the management OF the
tariff bill. 1t came at the close of the days
session. when there were more absentees on the
Democratic side of the chamber than was con-
sistent with assured victory on that side. The
subject of il was quicksilver. This had been
placed on the free list by the House, and the
Senate Finance Committee reported it without
amendment An attack upon it was made by
Senator Perkins tCal., r. J, who argued that its
adoption would mean the ruin of the quicksil-
yer mines of California and the delivery of the
control Of the quicksilver markets of the worl

entire supply Of the quicksilver mines of Spain

Capons are dressed sc -aewhat differ

Agriculturist. TIE latter have the head
removed and the whole surface denuded
of feathers, But capOns have the head
left Oh, the bleeding being done through
the mouth; tho feathers Of the neck are
not plucked; the tail and few inches
around it are left intact; and about half
OF the leg, from the shank up, is left I'M
plucked. The crop is not removed, but
1t must be entirely empty, the bird being
kept without food long enough to insure
this. A cut is made around the vent, and
| that, with the intestiDes, is removed.
| No other dressing is required or ex-
pected.
The head is left on as means of dent
| lhcation, the head OF q capon being quite
different from that Q! q cCckerel. The
comb is small and shrunken, the wattles
are started but little, aud there is a
pale sickly cast about the whole head
and face, which once seen IS not easily
forgotten. Tho neck feathers are usually
very long and abundant, but they, with
the other unplucked feathers, seem to be
left for no useful reason but simply as a
compliance with the dictates OF fashion.
Ia plucking capous great care il
needed IS the skin is very tender, and q
torn skin disfgures the poultry. The
birds are pincked dry, and the mouth
is carefully wiped free from blood, as are
the feathers, if any happen to gel

day in Illinois to take the foul air out of

Globe Democrat. The we'll was to be
cleaned, but the man that undertook the
job was afraid to 60 down until he had
ascertained the quality of tho air at the
bottom. He let down a lighted candle,
and when it had descended to about six
feet from the bottom it went out as sud-

He was then sure that the we'll had
poisonous gas IN it, aud took a small
um brella, tied string to the handle and
lowered it open into the we'll.
Having let it go nearly to the bottom,
he drew it up, carried it few feet from
the we'll and upset it. He repeated this
operation twenty or thirty times, with
all the bystauders laughing at him, then
again lowered the light, which burned
clear and bright, even at the bottom.
He then condesceuded to expl in that

Go out into the woods and dig up a
bunch of wild violets, taking q large
lump OF the earth up with them; place
this in half keg of earth, first boring
two holes 10 the bottom OF the keg to
allow the water to drain off. Two small
fiat stones should be placed over these
holes. Then gil in with earth. When
the key is full, then plant the bunch of
violets in the middle. Give a moderate
watering and place the keg in warm
window. Around the outside OF the
keg plant several ''rock ferns" These
ferns are very beautiful, and may be
easily gotten cut OF the woods, or upon
the borders of streams. After planting
clip the leaves back one half. They will
soon start into growth, and make a most
beautiful appearance all through the
winter. The keg may be painted with
vermilion red, two coats, and the hoops
painted black. This paint may be ap-
piled easily by any careful person, and
can be had in one pound cans. A Wine
cask sawed i'll two, and painted as above
filled with large century plants answers
very well. aud they give tiue tropical
appearance to the room.

them, if the moss be thin, with the dark
green moss found in the forest in little
mounds. If this cannot be obtained,
that taken from decayed stumps or logs
in thin sheets will answer. Place the
plate in sunny window, and keep it
partially filled with water. Keep it in a
moderately warm room, and on cold
nights cover over with a paper. The

The owner of ten to twenty acres of
land within convenient distance of city
or town is very fortunate. The Phila-
delphia Ledger of a recent date says:
1.-THE demand for small farms has been
greater than ever before. Properties
of from thirty to fifty acres and less
are wanted-the farmers holding them
say they can make more money and
live better upon a few acres than upon
q large farm."
This same state Of affairs is noticed
In all the eastern states, and especially
Is this the case in our own state. The
low prices obtained for the leading
staple articles, such as cOrn and wheat,
and with a probability of these prices
prevailing for some years yet To come,
accounts for this change in farm man.

trucking, bee keeping, small fruit cul-

ton of the soil, better roads, well man.
