PROTEST FROM MAINE.

HIr. Donne!l Ridicules the Way They
"Brenk Roads" in Yankeeland.
5 Some winter morning the highway
find all familiar landmarks out of sight
beneath a thick covering Of snow which,
it is more than likely, has drifted in
huge heaps across the highway wher-
ever a fence, stone wall or clump OF
bushes has prevented the winds unim-
peded march. The highway surveyor,
mindful Of the important part he plays
in maintaining the social fabric, wades
out to the barn to feed his cattle
''cattle" being a New-E 1glandism for
u pair Of oxen-which he yokes up
after getting his own breakfast.
His method of breaking a road is
very simple. Under the front of an
old-fashioncd wood sled, with long
he chains a stick of wood six
or eight inches in diameter, slips into
the sockets a sled stake or two, to
hold on by, mounts the sled and in
vites Buck and Bright to get up steam.
Now Buck and Bright deserve no small
credit in this matter, for beside gener-
ating the motive power for the sled
they serve also as snow plows, plung-
ing into drifts and breaking down the
snow to an extent that makes it COM
paratively easy for the sled to main
tain an even keel, so to speak, even
when the drifts are very irregular in
construction.

FEELING MICH COWS.
How to Maintain Even Production
Throughout the Season.

AHEouS HUN Al SS"o
One of the important items in secur-
Ing the best profit from the cows is to
have an even flow of milk well mains
tanned throughout the season. On many
farms there are COWS that for a short
season after they come in fresh yield a
good flow of milk, but this soon be-
gins to fail, especially If care is not
taken in the feeding and management,
and at the end of seven or eight months
the quantity they give is SO small that
they are allowed to go dry. Many
cows are kept that if charged a fair
price for the food they eat would not
pay for their keep.
The first important item is to have
good cows. Then they must be well
fed, even in summer. While during
growing season the pastures can be
largely relied upon; it will pay to give
also a light feed of bran and corr meal,
or bran and middlings. Then in order
to make sure of a good supply Of
cheap food it will also be a good plan
to plant some crop like sweet corn,
fodder corn, millet, sorghum, o some

any time when needed. There should
be a change of feed occasionally SO
as to keep the COW with a good
appetite, as the more good food
the good dairy COW consumes the
good milk she will gilf!fJt will
also be a good plan to dividA the pas
lures 81 that she can be charked from
one to the other a. least every len days.
The cows will do much bette7k than if
they are compelled to depend upon one
pasture. Besides, by changinga there
will be less waste of feed. With all
animals there is a natural inclination
to eat the tender, sweeter growth, and
in doing this, when kept in one pas
ture, there will be more or less thai
will grow up and mature seed. BY
dividing up the pastures and changing
from one to the other, grass will all be
eaten down more evenly. There should
always be sweet, nutritious grasses in
the pastures. so that the COWS can get
enough to satisfy their appetites with
out tramping too long or too far. The
q~uieter and more comfortable the COWS
can be kept the better the results.
Feed to keep the cow in a good, thrifty
condition. It is not possible to make a
good dairy cow fat, but good treatment
will keep her in good condition. Her
food will be converted into milk rather
than fiesh.-St. Louis Republic.

NOTES.

GREAT extremes of cold and heat are
injurious to apple trees.
THE northwest, a writer remarks,
must have apple trees Of a rugged ma
ture.
The begonia likes the shade, hint
that those with shaded yards can profit
by.
In the south they heroically prune
their peach trees in winter, leaving only
the strong, healthy branches.
IT is recommended, when cucumbers
are grown on a small scale, to let the
vines run over small trees or bushes. A
great increase of fruit results. Farm

A Flock for the Family,


Leaving out the matter of profit and
of selling eggs, there is much pleasure
in keeping a small flock of fowls for
family use. A few hens can be kept at
less cost, proportionately, than can a
large number, owing to the fact that
the scraps from the table are valuable.
No labor of consequence is necessary,
and when an account for the year is
kept the small focks will be found to
have given quite a profit in the CONVEX
sion of the waste material into eggs.
There is no way to procure eggs as
fresh and nice as those produced by
your w hens. If they are of a choice
breed, the pleasure will be the greater,
as well from pride in endeavoring to
excel as from the management.-Farm

How to Prune FIowerinc Shrubs.

The proper system of pruning flow
ering shrubs, according to the best of
authority, is one that will induce an
abundance of young wood, and this can
only be accomplished by the trimming
out Of all two-year-old growth-that
which has already iowered-cutting
out the old shoots close to the ground,
SO that the new growth will push out
from the root of the plant. If the
bush makes too strong and rank q
growth, a moderate amount of pruning
in winter will not lessen the bloom to
any extent, especially as the extreme
ends OF the young wood do not flower.

Absorption of Odors by Milk.

Parvi11e relates some interesting
facts upon this subject. If a a Of
milk is placed near an open vessel con.
tanning t~urpentine, the smelA of the
~turpentine is soon communicated to
the milk. The same result occurs as
regards tobacco, parafine, asafoetida,
camphor and many other strong
smelling substances. Milk should also
be kept a distance from every volatile
substance, and milk which has stood
in a sick chamber should never be
drunk. The power of milk to disguise
the taste of drugs-as potassium
iodide, opium, salicylate, etc.-is we'll
known.-London Public Opinion.

ter retarding her. In some ships, run
ming at a high rate of speed in shoal
water, the stern. or after part, is
drawn down very considerably. This
is caused by the water not filing with
sufficient quickness the cavity at the
stern caused by the forward move

at the stern causes the ship to settle
there and be pursued by a huge wave.
In n Of our small, very fast ships this

AN ALARMING STATEMENT
CONCERNING WOMEN.
HOW BAD HABITS ARE FORMED.

The Nezy York Tribune says: 1.-THE habit of
taking headache powders is increasing to an
alarming extent among a great number of wo-
men throughout the country. These powders as
their name indicates. are claimed by the manu-
facturcrst to be positive aud speedy cure for anv
form of headache. In many cases their chief
ingredient is morphine, opium, cocaine or some
other equally injurious drug having a tendency
to deaden pain. The habit of taking them IS
easily formed. but almost impossible to shake
oH. Women usually begin taking them to re-
lieve a raging headache and soon resort to the
powder to alleviate any little pain or ache they
may be subjected to, and finally like the NOR
phine or opium end, get into the habit of taking
them regularly, imagining that they are in pain
if they happen to miss their regular dose"
In nine cases out of ten, the trouble is
in the stomach and liver. Take a simple
laxative and liver tonic and remove the
offending matter which deranges the
stomach and causes the headache. DIR.
