EARN AND GARDEN NOTES.

Rats thrive under leaky hangers.
Hogs prefer clean, pure water, aud
sound, clean food.
When swine are healthy they can be
fnttened very readily.
Apple trees will grow where it is too
steep or rocky to plough.
No one can appreciate pork until
they have sampled the home-cured ar
ticle.
Do not give the cattle more than
they will eat, just because it is corn
fodder
Swine need grazing in all seasons of
the year, and especially in the spring
aud summer.
A slop barrel and feed COX on
wheels, lighten' the labor of car ing
for the pigs.
Don't feed your little chicks sloppy
food. They will do better on dry
food, like cracked wheat, rolled oats
aud the like, and it won't get sour
and dirty like the soft, mushy food.
Offer the hogs clear, cool water at
all times in hot weather 1t aids di-
gestion, and increases their content
ment besides it is the principal stay
in maintaining good health. Avoid
surface water.
Ii your hens run out all the time
where they can eat grass, and pick up
bits of refuse, bugs, grasshoppers,
etc, you need not feed them oftener
than once day. They will give You
more eggs than ii you stuff them.
Better hustle all the eggs you can
from your flock at once, for tho
moulting season is at hand, and that,
you know, means no eggs at all for
weeks to come. You can greatly in
crease the egg product by feeding
some meat scraps, or cut green bone.
Feeding grounds, if you must feed
on the ground, should be OF the slope
near the top OF hillside. that the i'm
purlties in the dust may be washed
away by rains. If water is on low
grounds by all means arrange to feed
and have the hogs sleep on higher
ground.
Don't dump the grain all in pile,
but scatter it well among the litter on
| the floor of your hen house. Make
the hens work for it. 1t will do them
more good, and they won't get SO fat
and lazy. A lazy hen is never a good
layer. any moro than lazy woman is
good housskeeper.
If the pigs sleep in she'd in sum.
mer great cleanliness is necessary.
Besides removing all dirt with shovel
aud by thorough drenching with
water, abundance of carbolic acid and
lime should be sprinkled inside and
outside the shed to keep it pure and
free from disease germs.

CARE OF CHICKS.

Many complaints are made of the
perversity of chicks in dying without
cause. The owners never think of
blaming themselves or imagine that
the little things would have preferred
t, go on living ii they had been giv"n
chance. They only ceased the
struggle because sour and insufficient
food, lice aud general neglect proved

A notable instance of the whitening
effect upon the Western Indian of the
Kind of civilization with which they
Come in contact is the case of the
Roger River Indians OF Oregon, re-
lated in the New York sun. In 1852,
when the first white men appeared
among them, there were 800 members
of the tribe. In November, 1854,
one-fourth of them died, and their
numbers have gradually decreased un-
til, according to the last census made
by the Indian agent year ago, there
we're but fifty-four members of the
tribe living. This tribe showed no
liking for civilized ways, and could
not be brought to adopt them, al
though the goverament.evidently has
done all in its power for them along
these lines.

CLEAN MILKING.

The value of clean milking is shown
by the following experiment: Five
cows were milked four weeks by two
persons. each miker serving two
weeks, both being competent, one do
ing his average milking and not aware
of test, the other knowing of IL and
ordered TO milk the COWS thoroughly
dry. In the case of the man unaware
of the test the yield from five cows
for two weeks was S6i pounds; the
other man, knowing of the test, got
1,l3l pounds of milk, an excess of
267 pounds. Wisconsin Agricultur-

OF late years it has become quite n
general practice in the East to remove
all street and roadside fences in coun-
try villages and their immediate
suburbs. III the lawns are kept in
good order down to the sidewalks,
paths and main street, it gives to the

aud freedom from neighborhood ex-
clusiyeness, as represented in the
ordinary fence, but it is still ques-
tion whether or no some barrier to
the encroachments upon private
rights and property is not as n whole
absolutely necessary even in the most
placid of country villages. If flowers
or small ornamental plants of any
kind are to be cultivated in village
gardens, they must be protected from
the village dogs OF various breeds and
races, else broken stems and wilted,
scorched foliage will soon Indicate the
source of injury. Muzzling does not
in the least prevent the village dogs
from scorching the foliage of rare and
beautiful plants. especially the fine
leaved conitors. 1t is surprising that
such trees and sh ubs should be
planted only to be mutilated and
scorched by the village dog. New

Strange Case of Telepathy.
BY LOUISE CHANDLER MouLroN.

The May afternoon was more than
warm-it was hot. Summer had hur-
ried into the world, unexpected and
uninvited. Perhaps that was what
made Jasmyn Meredith lend little
pink ear to something she had re-
solved over and over that she would
not hear-tho passionate, illogical, al
together absurd love making of n
young fellow who would not have
taken his university degree till II
month later on He was twenty-onc,
to b, sure, anl she was only eighteen,
but at eighteen girl believes herself
already woman.
She listened, aud then she said,
with smile: "Why, you are n
boyl"
"A wise boy" he answered, "who
knows enough to love you, and who
will have all the longer time in which
to love you, because he begins early. "
"Tm glad you are to be lawyer"
she answered somewhat irrelevantly,
as it seemed to Robert Marsh.
"Why?' he ventured.
"Rscause | now see that you have,
after all, a logical mind. Your powers
of argument might be thrown away in
any other profession. And then she
added: at takes good while to
get admitted To the bar.
SIT shan't take very long in my
case" he answered, "if you will
promise me my reward for making
haste"
"Oh, yes, she said, 81 will come
to court and hear your first plea"
"Thatl" hecried, little scornfully,
"No, / want you to listen in private
to my first argument, and he con-
yinced by it,
"Ah, but you are not lawyer yet
you must wait"
"You can keep me waiting as long
as you pease--it is for you to say
but have told you that love you.
You cant get away from that. I'll
trust you to remember, and when any
other man tells you the same story, |
i will be his judge. You shall
think of my love and my words, and
you sh..l ask yourself whether he
loves you as well.
Jasmyn smiled at this outburst, and
then she said, with an air of sweet
tolerStion: " Dream your dream,
gentle youth it may keep you from
some worse folly"
"And you will not even b. here for
class day?"
"No; we sail on Saturday My
mother is half English by birth, and

ing for Mayfair. We shall go to New
York tomorrow.
He looked for moment into her
eyes. His lips were athirst for her
but he knew her too well to venture
anything she would have the right to
resent. He contented himself with a
hand clasp; but there was a tone in
his voice she would not soon forget

 Condition of Crops

Carrollton, Aug. 11.-(Specia1 Corre- spondence.) )-Capt. Daniel M. Richards, a prominent merchant of Columbus, Miss, visited carrollton last week. He states that many democrats of Missis- sippi favor the free coinage of silver, but they propose to stand by the action of the democratic party. He finds that the democrats of Pickens do not agree with their brethren across the line, but that whenever they meet in national convention harmony will prevail.
 Protraeted meetings have set in With renewed vigor in Pickens since the farnl- CTS finished working the crops. All de- nominations are working together for the purpose of bringing the backslider and sinner into the church. Building new places of worship and repairing those al ready built is the regular order of the day. The colored people have caught the infection.
 The appointment of John w. Cox as clerk of the circuit court of Pickens mas given entire satisfaction to the people or the county.
