ECONOMY OF TIME.

1t is great complaint with farmers
that their time is wasted with una
voidable accidents, as sick animals.
escaped stock, insect pests, and what
not, writes Louise NJ. Fuller. II GER
tainly is true that weather means more
to the farmers than to any other class.
"The weather must lift the mortgage
on the farm, pay the taxes and feed
and clothe the family" The farmer
must deal hand to hand with all the
forces of nature as well as human ma
ture, and, however wisely, he cannot
count his time like other men, or say
positively what he will do on the NOR
row. Nevertheless, the farmers time
is worth rs much as any mans from u
business point of view, because of
the economy of nature, which seconds
every honest effort at economy of
-time in her own way. learned this
by watching the way the best farmers
work, and, noticing that, like nature,
they are never in a hurry, but they
never lose any time they find some
use for every sort of weather. That
weather which is too wet for anything
else is good for fence corners, which
the thrifty farmer can never consent
to leave to their accidental fate of
weeds and briers. A town lot gives
room enough for the experimental
proof of this theory. During the
worst season for rain that l ever saw,
| managed to work my two hours a
day on all but one day outdoors. On
that day seed stakes, etc, were pre-
pared indoors. / doubt if the time
ever came when it was profitable TO
give up to complaining, While we are
bewailing something is sure to go un-
done. New York Tribune.

THE pIeHEsT AWARD.

Royal Baking Powder has all the
Honors-In Strength and Value 20
per cent. above its Nearest Com
petitor.
The Royal Baking Powder has the
enviable record of having received the
highest award for articles of its class
greatest strength, purest ingre-
dients, most perfectly combined
wherever exhibited in competition with
others. In the exhibitions of former
years, at the Centennial, ut Paris,
Vienna and Mt the various State and
Industrial, fairs, where il has been ex-
hibited, judges have invariably award
ed the Royal Baking Powder the high
est honors.
AT the recent Worlds Fair the OK
animation for the baking powder
awards were directed by the chief
chemist OF tho Agricultural Depart
ment at Washington. The chief chem
lists official report of tho tests of the
baking powders, which was made for
the specific purpose of ascertaining
which was the best, shows the leaven-
ing strength of the Royal TO be 100
cubic inches of carbonic gas per ounce
of powder. OF the cream of tartar
baking powders exhibited, the next
highest in strength tested contained
but 1873 cubic inches of leavening gas.
The other powders gave an average of
Ill. Tho Royal, therefore, was found
of twenty per cent. greater leavening
strength than its nearest competitor,
and forty-four per cent. above tho
average of all the other tests. Its
superiority in other respects, however,
in the quality of tho food it makes as
to fineness, delicacy and wholesome
ness, could not be measured by fig
ures.
1t is these high qualities, known and
appreciated by the women of the coun-
try for so many years, that have
caused the sales of the Royal Baking
Powder, as shown by statistics, to ex-
ceed the sale of all other baking pow
ders combined.

RECIPES.

hhOlfho.
Fried Cakes-To make nice fried
cakes which are free from grease, the
following is excellent: One and one.
half teacupfuls each of sugar and sour
milk, two well beaten eggs, four table
spoonfuls of melted butter, a pinch of
salt, one teaspoonful of soda dissolved
in little water. Flavor with nutmeg.
Mix all together and add enough flour
to roll without sticking. Fry one-half
lard and one-half tallow. To prepare
the tallow, boil it in water until
melted. Let it cool and remove the
tallow
Pound Cake-One pound of flour,
one pound of sugar, Il pounds of but
ter, ten eggs, one nutmeg grated, one
wineglass of rose water. Beat the
butter and sugar together; when it is
perfectly light stir in the eggs, which
must have been whisked to n thick
froth add the -four, then the nutmeg
and rosewater. Butter your pan, line
it with paper, which should be well
buttered, and pour in the mixture.
Bake it for three hours in a moderate
oven. When the edges of the cake
appear to shrink from the sides of the
pan the cake will be done
French Rolls-Take one-half pint of
scalded milk and one yeast cake. AL.
low this to cool, then add one-half
tablespoonful of butter (melted) and
the same of lard, tablespoonful of
sugar, teaspoonful of salt and quart
of sifted -four. Mix, and let this stand
over night in a warm place. Knead
hard in the morning, then roll it out
about an inch thick. Spread this over
with butter, and cut as if for biscuit,
fold together, put them in pan and
let them rise again. They must be
very light each time. Bake as you
would biscuits. Unless you have
late breakfast it is difficult to serve
these on time, but they are very nice
for dinner, and can be warmed over
for breakfast. If desired for dinner,
set the sponge about 8 a. m.
Macaroni la Creme-Break one
half pound of pipe macaroni into inch
pieces, wash them thoroughly, and
place in farina boiler, with hot wa
ter enough to cover the whole. After
swelling out add one tablespoonful of
salt, boil ten minutes and then drain
off the water. Pour a large cup of
sweet milk over it, and let it cook un-
til tender. While the above is cook
ing heat one cup of milk in pipkin or
porcelain-lined kettle until it boils.
Thicken this with one teaspoonful of
flour previously dissolved in cold wa
ter stir in tablespoonful of butter
and lastly an egg. Mix all thoroughly
together, and cook few minutes un-
til it thickens, then dish up the maca.
rom, pour the sauce over it and serve.

Fishes That Fight.

So aggressive is the plakat, little
fish from Siam, that the entertainment
it affords has become National
pastime, but not a very creditable one,
to say the least. The fishes are trained
to go through regular battles, and are
reared artifically for the purpose,
while the license to exhibit them to
the general public is farmed out, and
brings large amount of money INTO
the royal Golfers.
They are kept in aquariums built for
the purpose, and fed upon the larvm
of mosquitoes and every possible care
taken of them. Several years ago n
few of them were presented to n Eng
lish gentleman by the King of Siam.
When the fish is in quiet state, with
the fins at rest, the dull colors are not
at all remarkable. But if two are
brought together or within sight of
each other, or even If one sees its own
image in looking glass, the little
creature becomes suddenly excited.
The fins are raised and the whole
body shines with metallic lustre and
colors of dazzling beauty, while the
protecting gill membrane, waving like
black frill round the throat, makes
grotesque the general appearance. In
this state of irritation it makes re-
peated darts at its real or reflected an
tagonist. If, now, two are placed
together in tank they rush at each
other with the utmost fury. The bat
tie is kept ON until one is killed or put
to flight, but not until they are en-
tirely separated does the victor shut
his gaudy fins, that, like flags of war,
are never lowered until peace has been
declared.
In South America there is small
fish that not only attacks its fellows of
the sea and river, but is greatly dreaded
10y the natives, who, during certain
seasons, have to ford the streams in
which the carbites is found. Bathers
are often attacked by them, the sharp,
chisel-shaped teeth taking bit from
the flesh wherever they attack. They
are perfect scayengers, eating the ami
mails that float down the river.-Pitts-

BUTTER BACTERIUM.

So far as the quantity of the butter
is concerned, says Walter Thorp in
London Dairy, our old friend, the lac
ticacid bacterium, seems to be the
chief if not the only agent, but it does
not seem to be directly concerned in
the production of the butter flavor.
Out of the many bacteria occurring in
ripening cream Storch found only one
species which was capable of produc-
ing the true butter aroma; the rest
produced either Indifferent or bad
tlnvors. Since only this single species
from among so many is capable of Civ
ing 10 the butter such flavor as we
desire, the odds against its oyercrowd-
ing the rest are very considerable, and
we cannot wonder at the difficulties of
producing a high-class butter. Of uni
formly agreeable flavor If by cult

as far as flavor is concerned by inocu-
lation with this particular bacterium
at on early stage, then we ought to be
able to produce cream of uniform
and proper degree of ripeness without
difficulty.

the German creameries. and it is

Petroleum for ninhtherin-

In the village of Neuville- Champ
dOisel, about nine miles from Rouen.
France, malignant type of diphtheria
broke out last year. The country
doctor, NJ. Frederic Flahaut, treated
the cases in the usual way, but the
deaths were numerous. Remembering.
as he says, that the English use petro-
leum as an anti-spasmodic and an anti
septic, he determined to try it as an
experiment.
His first trial was in the case of a
little girl seven years old. He had al
ready given her up and proposed to
the parents to make the experiment.
which consisted in swabbing the throat
with common petroleum. He had
little hope of the success of his new
method, but to his astonishment he
noticed an improvement after the first
application. He continued the treat
ment and the child recovered. Then
he tried it successfully with his other
patients.
This year he had forty cases of diph-
liberia TO treat, and he was successful
IN every one. In order to be perfectly
sure tlat the cases III question were
ones Of malignant diphtheria, he had
the expectorated matter submitted to
the analysis of Professor Francois Hue
OF the Rouen College of Medicine.
and the professor reported that he
had clearly discovered the presence in

Moreover, his diagnosis was confirmed
by Drs. Leshaves, Lerefrit and Bailey
of Rouen, the last named being the
physician-in-chief in that city.

experience relief from the very first
application. The disagreeable taste
OF the petroleum remains for few
moments only.

ROOTS AS FEED.

If it pays to import sheep from
abroad in order to improve our breeds,
one would imagine it would also pay
the sheep-raiser TO study the process
by which these sheep have been raised
to their present state of excellence
One of the most potent factors has
been the feed. A mixed ration should
be supplied in which roots play the
most important part Sugar beets,
mangolds, rutabagas and turnips are
all of great value TO the flock, and
crops of them should be sowed and
harvested regularly, if we would make
a success of sheep-raising, New York

Whenever it is possible il is we'll to
keep a separate closet for articles per-
tanning TO ironing. Keep the irons,
starch, bluing, holders, boards, sheet,
blanket and other articles pertaining
to ironing in this closet, which should
be warm and dry and shut off from

hang them up where they will be free

in closet reserved for the ironing

objection to little dampness. New

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Never Jerk or whip colt.
Old-fashioned perennials are coming
in again.
All weak queenless colonies should
be united with others.
Pure cane sugar is one of the best
foods for wintering bees.
If honey is not sealed it is liable to
become thin and watery.
1t is mistaken notion that all
honey which candies is pure.
Now is the time to barrel the road
dust and keep it in dry place.
1t is best not to winter your own
cockerels for breeders, as rule.
By increasing the yield per acre the
cost of production is diminished.
The number of eggs depends largely
upon the amount of feed and care given.
In raising colt the feed should be
liberal and varied, but not excessive.
A colts education should begin
when the animal is twenty-four hours
old.
The second year q hen only lays
half the number of eggs that she does
the first year.
The ideal diet for poultry should be
neither too soft nor too hard, but a
happy medium.
New raspberry canes should be
pinched back to induce throwing out
side branches.
When the cat and chickens lie down
together the latter are always given
the inside place.
Because turkeysar are good foragers it
will not pay to let them go without
proper feeding.
One pound of cut meat and bone is
considered the proper daily allowance
for sixteen hens.
Anything in the vegetable line, pro-
vided it is sweet and clean, will form
acceptable food.
Colts should be handled with kind
ness and may be halter-broken when
four months old.
Bran for chicks should always be
scalded and allowed to stand for a
time in order to soften.
Ounces do well in either sandy or
clay soils, the principal requirements
being fertility and good tilth.
Generally, the smaller the farm the
better the cultivation and the greater
the profit for the expenditure.
Pigs should be taught to eat before
being weaned, SO as to make the
change from milk TO feed easily.
1t is not desirable to give too much
red pepper and ginger to the poultry.
Once or twice week is sufficient.
A good breed is not alone sufficient
TO make money. Good care, good
food and good quarters are also neces-
sary.
1t is cheaper to make your stables
warm than it is to supply your horses
with the extra feed necessary TO keep
out the cold occasioned by cracks in
the stable.
For horses ensilage should be used
sparingly, as full feeding upon it
sometimes induces collie, but it may
be safely used to some extent in con-
nection with grain and hay.

Tears and Nerves.

My medical friend explains: As the
muscular power that extends or hexes
a finger is at distance from the part
moved, 30 the excitement to tears is
from an irritation in a distant nervous
center, and is removed when the nerv-
GUS center is either soothed or ex-
hausted. The relief comes, not from
the mere escape of tears, which is only
symptom, but from the cessation of
the storm in the nervous chain. If
the storm be ealmed by soothing
measures--as when We soothe a child
that is weeping from fear, annoyance
or injury--we quiet the nervous cen
ters, upon which the effect ceases. In
children the soothing method sue
ceeds, and sometimes it succeeds in
adults, although in adults the cessa-
ton of tears is more commonly due to
actual exhaustion following period

Best Dlet lor ConsnmniIres.

The respiration apparatus invented
by Professor Volt, of Germany, and
recently received by the Yale Medical
School, is the first to come to America.
It's purpose is to measure the oxygen
absorbed by the body and the carbonic
acid and water given off. From the
data thus obtained tine decomposition
of the body can be determined, and
the decomposition caused by the di-
gestion of various kinds of foods COM
pared.
Animals will be used for the first
experiment. They will be placed in
glass cases after having been fed on
particular kinds of food, and the vari-
alton in the oxygen, carbonic acid and
water within the glass cases in twenty
four hours will be determined by
means of the apparatus. From this
relative values of the foods will be OBJ
tanned.
II Is hoped that the experiments will
result in the selection of diets that will
prolong the lives of those suffering
from consumption and other diseases.
