RENTING ON SHARES.
Tho Terms Demanded by Landlo rds in
tho Middle States.

Tho Terms Demanded by Landlords in
tho Middle States.
Hardly any two farms are let on ex-
actly the same terms, but in the main
it may be said that all terms come
down at last to somewhere between a
.'third and half division of the pro-
ceeds of the property. In the north
eastern part of Ohio, we understand
that it is almost an established custom
to rent dairy farm at the halves-the
owner to furnish land, cows, possibly
some tools, the tenant to do all the
work, furnish the work team, pay half
of the taxes, and, in the advent of
purchased feed for the dairy, he is to
pay one-half of the cost of the feed
needed, and the owner of the farm the
other half. Now and then a man who
rents desires to own part of the cows
and raise some young stock. In this
event the owner of the farm pays to
the tenant 6 per cent. interest on the
market value of the few cows that the
tenant may furnish, and at the ex-
piration of the lease the increase
of the herd is equally divided.
w mere UuS IcuduU ucSIIcS W OWh Iuo
stock, it is customary in the middle
states to agree upon a cash rent for
the farm, and the tenant shoes his
own row." specifications usually be-
ing agreed upon as to how the farm
shall be managed, how much plowed,
how much seeded down, and all tools
supplied by the owner of the farm to
be kept in repair, we'll housed, and a
reasonable amount allowed for their
use.
Where land is let by the acre, it is
hard to tell at distance just what
would be fair rental, including taxes
and keeping things in repair; but in
many parts of Ohio such lands, and
good houses, handy to market, rent
from so to So per acre, and if near to
city where milk can be retailed,
garden truck raised, and like advan-
tages, it may be double this, and posi-
bly, more for a general farm, while a
truck patch would bring a rental out
of sight."-Country Gentleman.

Proper Food and Drink for the Heated
Of meats for hot weather diet NUT
ton, lamb, fish and fowl are the best.
ALI other meats should be partaken Of
sparingly, and salt meat ought to be
thoroughly freshened before it is
cooked. Vegetables and fruits in their
season are always to be recommended,
but persons suffering from dyspepsia
or Indigestion should avoid acid fruits
and vegetables, such as Strawberries,
tomatoes, etc. "a'E
/ am very much opposed to the use
of bread containing yeast by persons
with tendency to indigestion. Wher-
ever there is any trouble with the di.
gestive organs it causes fermentation
in the stomach.
Drink good water, tea and coffee,
but the latter articles without sugar
or milk. In my own case 1 found that
good black coffee drank without
sugar or milk is far better for diges-
ton. would not interdict ice water,
but would caution people to drink it
owly and in moderate quantities. If
taken in too large quantities there is
always danger of congestion of the
stomach. Many people have thus died
from drinking ice water. Renounce beer
in hot weather. am aware that enor-
nous quantities of beer are drunk,
and mostly by persons who think they
could not get along without it, but the
trouble is all in their imagination. I
am opposed to everything containing
yeast going into the stomach, and so
am opposed to beer. Soda drinks are
always in order, where they are craved.
Finally eat according to your re-
quirements--your business and work.
Many persons within my knowledge
eat more in warm weather thar in cold,
in spite of all that can be said or done.

whore to Locate IN ENC south.

OF the thousands and thousands of North
ern families who contemplate locating in
the South this fall, in the hope of improv-
ing their health and lettering their hnan.
cial status, the vital question is which point
In the South is the best to locate In. The
three important questions to a farmer, as
far as location Is concerned, are
/. Soil capable of growing all the cereals
he Is accustomed to cultivating.
2. A healthy climate.
8. A point where ready market can be
found for everything he raises,
These requisites can be separately found
In any of the Southern States, but in the
great mineral belt of North Alabama they
are all found together
1t was this belt that originally attracted
the eyes of the world to the South. 1t is
about fifty miles wide and two hundred
miles long, and reaches from the Northeast
corner of the State as far south as Tusca-
loosa. Within the mineral belt lie all the
coal, iron, limerick and other mines; all the
furnaces and most of tho manufactures Of
the State, thus providing employment for
immense numbers Of operators OF all kinds,
which create market for every pound of
produce raised by the farmer within this
region at high price, and practically at his
door. In fact, the consumption of the prod
ucts Of the farm is so great within this min
eral belt that the farmers located therein
are unable to supply one-twentieth of the
demand, and this cannot be said Of any
other pointin the South.
The Increase in the value of lands within
the mineral belt of North Alabama is more
certain than any other point in the South,
hence no mistake can be made in locating
there.
The land throughout the mineral region is
high and dry, though watered by many pure
and limpid streams Its elevation is such
thatit enjoys the luxury of q pure atmos-
phere derived from its altitude, thus giving
to all this region the uniform climate Of the
South with the benefit of the seasons.
Birmingham is the center of this mineral
belt, with the beautiful city Of Fort Payne,
on the Alabama Great Southern r. r., ut
the North and Tuscaloosa at the South.

passable-to do just enough on them
Ito clear the law"-with a result that
every rain puts the roads back where
they were before any work at all was
done upon them. 1t ought to be seen
that in the end this is the most expen-
sive plan that could be pursued. Make
the roads as wide as possible, round
them we'll, keep the side drains well
open and their outlets clear, and even
hard storms will not wash them. Com
paratively few towns can expend large
sums in making scientific rock-bal-
lasted roads, but all can use good COM
mon sense in directing the labor that
is to be expended upon them. Our
roads are poor, not because a large
amount of labor has not been ex-
pended upon them first and last, but
because so much of this labor has been
misdirected and therefore wasted

quickly and easily, but road machines
are expensive, and for the making of
farm roads, especially, the homemade
scraper that is figured herewith serves
very good purpose, while for making
smooth rough country highway, and
for gradually working the earth from
the sides to the center of the road,
this scraper, preceded by harrow,
will be found of very great assistance.
The trouble with most of our country
roads is that they are fiat. so that the
rainfall either stands ON the surface
and makes it extremely muddy, or,
If the road be in rolling or hilly
country, the water runs along the mid
die of the highway, and badly washes
1t. The shoulder" at the sides of such
roads should be loose earth scraped
into the middle of the highway,
so that it will be rounded from
side to side. Then if the side
bitches are kept open all rain
water will quickly run off, and do no
injury either by making mud or by
washing. These two points, think,
account for large share of our poor
highways "a fiat surface and poor
drainage at the sides. If towns would
only see that it is much better to make
thorough work as far as they go, there
would be great lessening of the pres
ent troubles. There seems to be a pre-
vailing purpose in many places to do
just enough to keep the roads just

generously. Line the bottom and sides
of a baking dish with these, and fill
the dish with stoned cherries, packed
closely, each layer well strewn with
sugar. Bake half an hour and serve
very cold, with a pitcher of thick,

stewed. Set the vessel containing this
mixture in one of hot water and stir
continually until the paste is smooth

The "Churnability" of Cream.

The "churnability" of cream is in
large part due to the individual pecul-
iarities of the COW. Some people, says
Hoard's Dairyman, count this an inn
portant point and breed for it, with the
result that they have cows that give a
very quick-churning cream. In some
degree this is also breed characteris-
tic. Milk containing large butter
globules will yield an easier churning
cream than milk with small butter
globules. The cream from the cows
fresh in milk churns more readily than
from the same cows at later period;
feed also affects the churnability Of
cream, but how or why we do not
know. Succulent feed promotes
churnability. The silage feed tolcer-
tain of these cows explains in some de-
gree why it taxes less time to churn
cream from their milk 1t is quite
possible, also, that the different creams
coming from different nerds have DIFF
ferent species of bacteria FREEDOM
mating in them.

The sunlight crossed my path to-day;
brown thrush on a hawthorn spray
Swung back and forth across the blue;
The hop vines leapt an inch or two
Along their poles toward the sun:
The sparrows chirped that nests were done
The calyx broke--a rose was born;
heard the snap OF growing corn:
The world had ta'en the spring to wife.
And all the air was tense with life;
And yet, through some gray moods despite,
/ feel no love OF life tonight.
Yet 1 recall time OF pain,
A shadowless gray day OF rain,
And soundless, save the sobbing storm,
With cold no hearth fire e'er may warm,
A cold that lies against the heart;
Yet In my veins felt the start
or strength to graphic death in strife.

Princess Christian is perhap, the

Princess Christian is perhaps the
best known of Queen Victoria's daugh-
ters, and is always actively engaged in
philanthropic causes. At recent
bazaar she was seen going from stall
to stall making purchases, Prince
Christian good slowing away
the small parcels in his pockets. One
article purchased, however, was of con-
siderable size, so the attendant put the
question:: "Shall send it for you,
madam" to which the princess made
answer 'Oh, yes; send it to Buelting-
ham palace, if you please" "To whom
shall address it?" was the next query;
and her royal highness, who dearly
loves a joke, gave the prince comical
warning look and said: Address it to
Mrs. Christian" The attendant was
quite unsuspicious of the rank OF her
customers, and so the parcel was duly
dispatched to Mrs. Christian, Buck.
