WASHING FLANN ELS.
Use Plenty Of Hot soapy Water, Rinse Well
and Dry Quickly.

Use Plenty Of Hot soapy Water, Rinse Well
and Dry quickly.
Flannels must be washed separately
from the white clothes. Therefore when
the other washing is ont of the way cut
into shreds pound Of good yellow
soap. Put it into clean saucepan with
two quarts Of water and set it on the
fire until the soap has completely dis
solved. Then put it aside until the fol-
lowing day, when it should be jelly.
Two large pans will be required, both
Of which must be filled with water as
hot as the hands can bear. Into one put
sufficient soap jelly to make this water
feel soft and soapy. 1t should have the
appearace of creamy lather.
The flannel articles should be each
one taken from the heap singly, well
shaken and plunged into the lather. 1t
must be lightly rubbed all over, but
any portion likely to be soiled, such as
the collar and wristbands of flannel
shirts, will need an extra rubbing. Here
l may mention common mistake. 1t
is sometimes supposed that it is the
soap which wants rubbing into the
clothes, whereas it is the water. Soap
assists the cleansing process, but 1t Is
the water which really does the work.
Then the flannel must be Immediate
ly plunged into the second water. Here
it is rubbed through in just the same
way, and turned in order that every
part may receive its full share of rims
ing. When cleared Of soap, it should be
wrung tightly with the hands or passed
through an india rubber wringer, which
will not break any pearl buttons there
may be in it. Wringing the article in
a sheet or white cloth considerably alb
serbs the moisture. Shake the flannel
WELL then hang it Immediately before
the fire or in the sun to dry.
The secret of washing flannels with
out allowing them to shrink is to dry
them quickly. While drying 1t is advis-
able to pull them into shape. After the
labor of washing and drying is complet-
ed the flannels should be pressed with q
warm iron. Bright oolored fannels
must not be dried in the sun, as its rays
are ruinous to their delicate shades. II
is better to wash them in only one wa.
ter, as the quicker the process Of wash
ing and drying the brighter the color.
In washing little ones fannels the
greatest care should be taken. They
must not be soaked in either hot or colo
water, as both will thioken the ma
terial Wash the soiled parts in little
heated soapy water. Then immerse thu
flannel in fresh water, as hot and soapy
as before, and lightly rub it all owe
quickly. Wiring carefully from this wa
ter and souse it in clear one. Boil
waters may be just as hot as the hand
can bear without discomfort. Squeez
it out, and if you have no wringer rol
each aricle in clean cloth, and wrini
it very dry. Shake it we'll, pull int
shape and dry Immediately.
To conclude, flannel washing 1

by moist weather, furnishes the best
conditions for the spread of the disease.
The potato blight fungus seldom occurs
to any serious extent in sections where
the mean or normal daily temperature
exceeds for any length Of time n de-
grees. The tubers affected with the
disease in question show depressed,
dark colored spots on the surface, while
within are seen blotches and streaks Of
a brownish or blackish color.
The macrosporium disease attacks the
leaves and sometimes the stems, but
never the tubers. 1t Itappears at any time
after the plants are from four to six
inches high. At first the older leaves
show gray spots, the affected parts be-
coming hard and brittle At the end of
two weeks half the leaf may be brown
and withered, while the rest is of pale
yellow color Finally all the leaves sue
cumb, and the tubers stop growth and
are practically worthless.
Potato scab is too familiar to require

STIRRED UP MINE OFFICIALS. =

they Don't Like the Propose Resumption
Of @. L. q w. Mines.
BRIDeEPoRT, o., May 18.--The action
Of the Cleveland, Lorain and Wheeling
miners looking to resumption at 60
cents without a state agreement has
stirred up the state officials. Orders
have been issued to close all the retail
mines in this city, Bellaire, Martins
Ferry and throughout the county.
The men were getting 60 cents, and
only one mine. McCabe & Clemments,
was closed under the order The other
miners refuse to go out, because they
say their trade would all go to Wheel.
ing and West Virginia, there being
hundreds of tons of coal ready to be
hauled across the bridge the minute the
home supply is cut off.
This would in no wise help the Ohio
cause, and would cut off their wages.
The order will not be oOeyed generally.
The Cleveland, Lorain and Wheeling
railroad is sending out toward the lakes
"a trains Of West Virginia coal each "a
hours, an average Of 500 cars a day.
The Baltimore and Ohio and Wheeling
and Lake Erie are doing nearly az
much, and the West Virginia mines
about Fairmont and intermediate points
are booming.
Reports that trains on either Of these
roads have been stoned or interfered
with in any way are absolutely false.
A telegram from Charleston says
Governor MacCorkle has issued a pro
clamation regarding the coal strike al
Elkhorn, in which he says:
"Not a shot has been fired by any
West Virginia miner, nor by any Other
miner, and not breach of the peace
has occurred. Nothing has been done
by any West Virginia working man tC
warrant the suspicion that they intend
to do anything more than peacefully
strike.
without discussing the cause of tn,
strike, can say that, In my knowledge
no strike in this country has ever beer
conducted by the workingmen at s,
peaceful and law-abiding manner, anC
the continued imputation that Yves
Virginia miners are breaking the peac,
and invading other states is disgusting
to all who know the true situation"

HEEL scRAPE AND SCOOTER.

when shallow culture is desired This
tool is known at the south as the heel
scrape and scooter. In the bulletin men
toned it is thus described:
The single shovel forms the "scooter"
part of the tool 1t is inches long and
81 inches wide. 1t will do the work
described by our correspondent. To
make the "heel scrape" the curved iron
is bolted ON as shown. These "scrapes'
are 10 and "a inches long, about 21a
inches wide and one-fourth inch thick,
with the lower edge sharp. AS bolted
on back Of the shovel this scraper is in
clined so that the front forms cutting
edge, so that it will slice off weeds and
lift the upper soil. This makes very
effective tool. Rural New Yorker rec
ommends this or similar attachment as
useful in cutting off weeds and prevent
ing too deep cultivation.

MIilet and Hungarian Hay.

When grown on good soil, through
a long season, the large headed German
millet is the best variety, according to
A. A. Crozier of the Michigan agricul-
tural college The pointed headed COM
mon millet is adapted to poor soils or
late sowing On fertile soils the small,
slender headed Hungarian grass will
yield large amount Of good hay in
moist seasons. Millet can be sown as
catch crop for hay when it is too late to
plant corn, or when insects or hard
winter have destroyed the clover, or
whenever a seeding Of permanent grasses
fails. For hay plant half bushel per
acre; if for seed, sow one peck 1t is
especially adapted to new lands and
good, sandy soil The thick stems cause
it to cure better if punched in the field
when partly dried, like clover.

Storing Corn Fodder.

The possible loss from storing cut or
shredded corn fodder or stover before it
is fully dry, or when it has been wet by
rains, is illustrated by a sample recently
sent to The Illinois experiment station.
This was nearly black in color, very
acid and apparently had been nearly
charred by excessive heating. The send
or says that the top of the NOW in which
it was stored was of fair quality, His
cows ate only sparingly of the blacken-
ed fodder, and its feeding value must
have been greatly reduced.
