ANOTHER tragedy has beer added to
the list of brutal prize ring murders.
Last Friday night Andy Bowen was
killed by blow delivered by Kid Law
gne in prize fight in New Orleans.
1t is to be sincerely hoped, that the
opinion of sports" throughout the
country, that this occurrence will end
public prize ring exhibitions is true.
Death in the prize ring is no
doubt accidental but it is murder all
the same, and it is high time that such
exhibitions be stopped.

Eject of Environment.

The proprietor Of a restaurant which
was cheap, but yet not a "beanery." had
a certain lot Of customers that he did not
want. "They don't belong here. They
are too tough. They ought to go TO
Park row beanery TO eat How shall l
get rid of them?' he asked

Early morning travellers in the cars Of
the Third-aVe. street car line have recent
ly seen another example OF the effect of
environment. During the year before the
cable road was completed this company's
old horse cars were getting into bad con-
dition, and the worst looking Of the carr
were run i'm these early morning hours.
To a man who went home by that
line about or . o'clock every morning
it seemed as if the BOwery and Park
row were getting more and more drunk
en- and disorderly. Drunken parties
boarded the old cars and had fun with
the conductor and annoyed the other
passengers. Windows were often
smashed. The conductors had to pay
for the broken glass, and sometime:
they could coax the money out Of the
bOisterous persons and sometimes not.
1t was unpleasant all around.
All this changed at once with the ad-
vent of the handsome cable cars
Whats become of your drunken peo-
ple?" was asked recently of a conductor
who had been frequent sufferer.

The Cnf LoNeH Horne-

A certain family moved down to the
shore last Monday. IL was a sizzling
day, as may be remembered by all who
were privileged to be present" and one
when the extra eXertion Of packing
trunks and household effects was almost
more than could be borne with eouanim-
ity and dignity. Among the articles that
went by hand were two baskets Of cats,
including an obstreperOus Tom with two
young tabbies and four kittens. Tommy
early in the journey showed himself
warrior bold, for he screamed and cried
and took on like one possessed Of the
seven devils of scriptural memory. His
harem behaved with more circumspec-
ton, possibly overcome by the heat and
the novelty of the situation. All went
we'll until the transfer from boat to train,
when Tommy asserted his cathood by
wild, unearthly yell, and nearly upset
the basket that imprisoned him. But the
climax was reached when the steam
whistle answered him back. II was too
great a strain on his feline nerves, and
with one final struggle he burst the
cover and plunged through the length
OF two cars, out of the door like a streak
of lightning, his tail bigger than the
engine and his eyes cleaning like Goals
of fire. 1t was as thrilling an exit as NJ.

Feeding Mt a Loss.

1t should be considered in keeping poul-
try that flock Of hens are. to a certain
extent, scavengers on the farm, and
they should be permitted to perform that
function. The hen can see the smallest
seed on the ground. and every square
inch Of the surface is carefully searched.
The amount of food which she can secure
for herself during the day, unaided Is
quite large. and she consumes a great
variety of substances that would be lost
but for her appropriation of them. On
the range she not only consumes grass
and seeds. but destroys a large number
Of insects also, and every ounce of food
thus secured is so much gain TO the
farmer. Of which he should avail himself.
During the summer months the hens re-
Quire less food than in winter though
something depends on how they may
be situated and how many eggs may be
laid, but when on the range they cannot
fail To secure a full supply of all that
they require. If they are active and in
dustrious. If the farmer continues to
feed them he will waste the food given
as the hens will not seek food on the
range If they are fed in the. barnyard,
becoming lazy and sluggish, and also
Overburdened with fat. By Withholding
food the cost Of the eggs will be reduced
and Of course the profit win be much
greater.

are alike and give them free range. Feed
one flock at the barnyard, allowing grain
twice a day, and compel the other flock
to pick up it's food Crowded the range
IS good, and the flock that receives no
food at the barnyard will not only lay
more eggs than the other. but will also
keep in better condition, while the flock
that is given plenty of grain will be fat
and will contain a larger proportion Of
hens that desire to sit. OF course, such
method viii not answer for all the sea-
son, but applies to the warm days of
summer only. and the experiment is
worthy Of being made.

To Pnsfeurize MILK.

A simple method of Pasteurizing milk
for those who desire it for family use
is as follows: The milk should be
placed in a clean bottle, which is put
inside any convenient metal vessel, into
which cold water should be poured until
It reaches the level of the milk in the
bottle. The mouth of the bottle should
be closed with a plug OF clean white
cotton. 1t viii be found more con-
venient in practice TO raise the bottle
containing the milk about half an inch
from the bottom of the outer vessel by
any convenient means, as this facilitates
the circulation of the hot water round
the bottle. The outer vessel should then
be placed on stove and slowly heated
until the temperature of the water
reaches 155 degrees +. The vessel should
then be taken from the fire and covered
closely with a piece of wooden cloth. Ii
should remain covered half an hour.
at the expiration of which time
the bottle should be taken out and put
in cool place.
The milk may be used at any time
within twenty-foUr hours. The cotton,
however. should not be removed, as II
prevents the entrance Of dust or germs
of any kind. The explanation Of the pro-
cess is very simple. A temperature Of
$50 degrees maintained for half an hour
IS sufficient 10 destroy any germs likely
TO be present in milk, and by raising the
temperature Of the outer water five de-
grees in excess and then allowing the
milk to stand in the heated water for
half an hour the proper temperature is
insured for the required period of time
il the temperature Of the water is al
lowed to rise above 155 degrees the taste
and quality Of the milk are affected,
though not 10 the same extent as If it
were boiled. Where a quantity Of Pas
teurized milk is required several bottles
may be placed in the same vessel, all
being filed to the same hight with the
milk.-Inter-Ocean.

Forty years ago broom corn was grown
to quite an extent in the Connecticut
valley, and the Hadley broom was
we'll known article of commerce in the
New England states. With the opening
of rich land in the more recently settled
portion OF the country the center Of pro-
duction of this plant moved rapidly TO
the West 1t has almost disappeared
from the seaboars, but is a profitable
crop in some Of the central western
states.
II it receives suitable attention at the
right time broom corn is not difficult
crop to produce. While late planting is
10 be avoided. II is not well to go to the
other extreme and do this work while the
ground is cold. A well prepared seed
bed is OF great Importance and 1t is
good plan to pillow the ground some time
before the planting Is TO be done. This
will cause the seeds Of weeds and grass
which may be in the land TO gerolnate
before the preparation OF the surface
soil is made. A thorough pulverization
OF the surface just before planting will
destroy these intruding plants, and Will
thereby greatly aid in keeping the crop
clean. As the plants of broom corn are
rather weak and make only a slow
growth during the first few weeks after
they appear, the providing Of a clean
and mellow seed bed is a matter Of con-
siderable consequence.
Planting in hills, which was at one
time almost universal, has largely been
superseded by drill culture. The old GUS
tom was to make the hills from two to
two and one-half feet apart, in rows from
three TO four feet from each other. A
liberal quantity of seed was used. This
made II necessary to thin the plants at
the second hOeing and involved great
deal Of very hard work. If good ma
chimes are used and are properly gagged
just the right quantity Of seed can be
planted. When care is used in selecting
seed this is by far the best way. as thin
ming the plants is both expensive and
tiTesOme. on ordinary soil the stalks
may stand three inches apart In the drill,
or two stalks together every six or seven
inches. Either very thick or very thin
planting will seriously injure the quality
of the brush. In case a dwarf variety
is grown the planting can be much closer
than the distance above named.
Cultivation should be commenced as
soon a the plants are we'll above ground.
II should be shallow and be repeated
frequently. If weeds appear between the
plants in the drills they must be re-
moved. If allowed 10 remain they viii
retard the growth of the crop and great

well as provide for a succession of their

have not forgotten them. 1t is pretty
custom to have day fixed when we

often do, say cruel things during a
