An Economical Engine.

The experience and observation OF
the writer enables him to recommend
the hydraulic ram, where conditions
are suitable, as one Of the most econom-
ical and efficient and durable engines
ever invented, says the Economist. At
an original cost Of $75 water may be
brought to the house from a spring $50
yards distant up an elevation of many
feet. If there is spring which will
keep an inch and a half drive pipe
full, and a fall of from six to ten feet
can be had, a reliable and practically
permanent water supply may be car
ried a distance of from $50 Ito 800
yards and elevated fifty to 100 feet
There is a ram which can be driven by
branch water and pumps the spring
water, and in that case practically the
whole spring supply can be utilized

Dat Meal for Young Chickens.

Whole oats are not the best feed for
hens that are laying. They are not
concentrated enough, and wheat
which contains much the same ele-
ments Of food as does the grain Of the
oat, is much better. But for young
chicks there is no better food than
ground oats sifted so as to take out
the coarser chaff, and made into a
cake. This will be eaten readily, and it
will make the young fowls grow thrift

which is always the most critical peri

Preyentinx Smut I'm Oats.

1t is now considered as a settled fact
that the smut OF oats may be absolute
ly prevented by treating the seed ac-
cording to the Jensen plan, says Hoar's
Dairyman. This Is simply to immense
the seed oats in hot water for a short
time, by which every smut spore is de-
stroyed and crop free from disease
is insured. No expense Is involved and
but slight labor. All that is to be done
is to soak the seed oats about ten min
utes in water at a temperature of near
ly 145 degrees-not much more or less
and then spread them where they can
drain and dry as rapidly as possible.
Use thermometer to insure the right
temperature, which may be regulated
by adding hot or cold water, as is re
Quired.

The polite lodging that sometimes
occurs between passers in a narrow
passage was happily solved once by a
tall, ungraceful, bulky vermonter, who
extricated both from the position by
saying: IF you will stand still, mad

of Roxbury, used to tell an experience
of his In the days when ladies' gowns
trailed on sidewalks and in street cars,

Hundreds of horses are ruined every

regular times for watering, but rules
can not safely be made to govern the
duty. On warm days, when the horses
perspire freely, they give Off from their
bodies large quantities of moisture, and
should be watered frequently, even IL

Cayenne Pepper for sparrows.

To kill sparrows, put cayenne pep
per in the crevices Of buildings they
infest. Or support a long and wide
plank by a stake, scatter grain under
it, and when the sparrows are busily
eating pull the stake away by means
of string, and the heavy plank dead
fall will kill the sparrows. Others will
quickly return to take their place.
Many believe the English sparrow
does more good than harm.
