What to DO with chan.

Chaff is refuse, and on large wheat
farms it is used in horse-stalls, or dis
posed of in any possible manner.
There is nothing that will equal it on
the floor of the poultry house, as it
absorbs moisture from the droppings,
keeps the floor clean. and facilitates
the work of sweeping out the house.
1t should be used literally, however,
two or three inches deep being prefer
able to light supply. 1t is better
than sawdust, as the hens do not in
Jure themselves with it, as is often the
case with sawdust when they fill their
crops with it. Cut straw or leaves
may also be used with the chaff, the
combination of the several materials
being better than any one of them
alone; but the chaff is better than any
other material, if it can be had, should
it be necessary to use only one sub
stance. A handful of millet seed, scat
tered in the chaff, will induce the hens
to begin work, and they will not care
to go outside if the floor is kept con-
stantly littered.-Farm and Fireside

FARM AND GARDEN.
FEEDING EXPERIMENT..
'eas Mixed with Bran Is the Most Prof

Peas Mixed with Bran Ia the Most Prof
i liable Feed for Hogs.
/ Bulletin No. 81 of the Utah Expert
ment station renders the relative value
of wheat, peas, corn and barley in the
production of pork. 1t is record of a
feeding experiment with Berkshire
hogs during the winter of 1884.
There were four sets of hogs fed; one
was fed wheat and bran in equal pro-
portions by weight; one peas and bran;
another corn and bran, and fourth
barley and bran. In other respects
the conditions were equal The expert
ment extended from December 5, 1898,
to May 10, 1904.
Peas mixed with bran, half and
half by weight, proved to be far
superior to either wheat, corn or bar
ley mixed and fed in the same manner,
both as to rapid gain and to the
amo unit required for one pound of
gain.
The wheat mixture comes second.
with corn and barley following in the
order named.
The pea mixture gave gain ofnear-
mixture; 225 pounds more than the
corn mixture, and $50 pounds more
than the barley mixture.
While the pigs averaged the same
weight, it required SO of "a pound
more of the wheat mixture, /. Al pounds
more of the corn mixture, and 1853
pounds more of the barley mixture to
produce one pound of gain than of the
pea mixture.
Peas and wheat proved to be excel
lent feed. fed mixed with bran in the
manner described.
Reckoning pork at four cents, per
pound, live weight. after deducting
the cost of the bran at $40 per ton,
wheat fed in this experiment brought
1914 cents per bushel, or $1.49 per hun
dredweight; peas, $1.7O per hundred
weight; corn, $1.26 per hundredweight,
and barley, sl.23 per hundredweight.
On the above basis peas should be
worth Is per cent. more than wheat.
while corn should be Is per cent less,
and barley II per cent less.
The pigs were pure bred Berkshires;
the gains were only moderately good
and not excessive.

A Popular Color.

One of the favorite colors this sea
son is a warm purple shade with ar
admixture of faint pink, exactly the
tint which a few years since was
called puce, and proved such becom
ing background to those who rejoice6
in golden locks and clear complex
ion. Of course petunia, as it is now
called, shows to greatest advantage in
miroir velvet, corded silk, or other
rich fabrics which permit of light and
shadows, failing upon the folds so that
they blend in an exquisite harmony.
This color is much in request for thea
ter gowns which partake of the char
acteristics of the princess dress,
though it differs in being almost in
variably cut square in the neck and
outlined with jeweled passementcrie
or folds of chiffon and rosettes and
velvet. Across the front and back the
material is deity shirred, falling
loosely to the hem of the skirt and
train, but is nodded to the figure un-
der the arms. The huge puff sleeves
reach to the elbow and are finished
with fall of rich lace. IN. Y. Post.

RULED BY TWO QUEENS.
A Recent Discovery Which Upsets Former
Ideas About Bees.

Recent Discovery Which Upsets Former
Ideas About Bees.
1t has hitherto been regarded as an
established fact which could not be
called in question by the most skeptic-
al that each community Of bees was
distinguished by it's loyalty to one
queen, and that the latter would brook
no rival, the appearance of another
queen being the signal for a battle
royal which only ended in the death
of one or both. These beliefs are
now overthrown by an Austrian sci
enlist, Prof. Cater, of Simmering,
who has just exhibited a thriving hive
the members of which are governed
conformity by two queens. and the
bees apparently approve of the limo
walton. Nay, what is still more re-
markable the two monarchs get along
most satisfactorily and without the
slightest friction.
One of the greatest authorities on
agriculture sat for hours at a stretch
observing the conduct of the two
queens They approached each other
from time to time without the slight
est antipathy, and on two or three
occasions actually caressed each 9th
er most tenderly, and then separated
quietly and peacefully, followed by
their devoted suites. Prof Cater has
just received the first prize for his SEN
sational exhibit, which is attracting
crowds to the bee show. and the mem
bers of the agricultural and horticultur-
al societies of Vienna are proud to think
that no such extraordinary spectacle
as this was ever witnessed or recorded
in the history of bees. The document
drawn up, signed and duly attested
will be preserved in one of the mu-
seums of Vienna, and copies Of it will
be sent to agricultural societies
throughout the world.

HINTS TO FARMERS.

On an acre of rich, well-cultivated
land, there may be grown five hundred
dollars worth of berries. g@s.s,
UNLESS we have ensilage or roots to
be fed to the eve and lamb early lambs
cannot be. made profitable.
PRESERVE only strong, vigorous
plants; give each room to develop and
perfect it's fruit. Prune severely.
WHEN women make business of
the dairy they make a success of it.
The very best of dairy achievements
have been made by women.
DAMAGE by ordinary droughts may
be prevented by summer mulch and
frequent cultivation. Severe drought
requires almost constant cultivation
and heavy mulching.
The point is made by writer that
feeding stock in the dark night and
morning is not good plan, for the
feeder cannot see whether or not the
stock is at it's feed or oM its feed.
PETER TUMBLEDowN had better let
the fowls into his garden to eat up the
weed seed there. Come to think of it,
the garden fence is down and the
chickens ate everything but the weeds
early in the season.
THE waste of the dairy although
employed profitably when fed to al
most all stock is especially satisfac-
tory as a part diet for fowls. Nothing
will take the place of meat more sure
ly. The use of sour milk must be be-
gun gradually to prevent diarrhGa.

autiseptics to keep the place clean. Both
her grandmother and aunt, by the way, had
died with cancer, and when apprlsed OF this
fact, the doctors told me that they would
not attempt to save her; that she was in
durable. Although the cancer had by this
time become deep seated, and her health
very low had one of the most noted spe-
cialists of New York to treat her. After
treating her awhile, this doctor admitted
that the case was hopeless ana TURNER

DOMESTIC CONCERNS.

Apples and Cream: A very pleasant
breakfast dish, with oatmeal, may
be made of fresh, mellow, uncooked
sweet apples, pared, sliced and covered
with sweet cream, light sprinlsling Of
sugar being added.-N. Y. World.
Orange Filling; Scald together in
farina kettle a grated pulp of two juicy
oranges from which the seeds have been
removed, half of one peel grated, two
tablespoonfuls of water and cupful
of sugar. Into this stir tablespoon
full of cornstarch, made smooth in a
little water, and cook till thick Beat
the whites of two eggs to stiff froth
with a cupful of powdered sugar, and
stir into the orange when almost cold,
reserving enough to coat the top of the
cake.-Good Housekeeping.
Roast Turkey Stuffed: Clean and
prepare a medium-sized turkey for
roasting. Cut two onions is pieces and
put them in a saucepan with two
ounces of lard and color them lightly.
Soak a pound of bread in water, from
which press the water, add the bread
to your onions, with the turkeys liver
and heart chopped very fine, little
salt, two pinches of pepper, the same
of sage, a pinch of thyme, and mix all
well together. Stuff the inside of the
turkey with this mixture, sew up the
opening through which you have in
troduced the stuffing, and put it to
roast with little butter on top.
Roast for three hours, strain the
liquid in your pan, pour it over the
turkey, and serve.-Boston Budget.
Making Salad: A knife should never
touch lettuce. 1t should lie in cold
water for short time, be taken out in
a salad basket and then thoroughly
drained, being tossed about two or
three times to aid the process. The
real French dressing calls for four good
tablespoonful of oil to two of favored
vinegar, usually tarragon, and good
dust of black pepper and salt. The
salad bowl is rubbed four or five times
with garlic, or very little onion
minced very fine is sprinkled through
the lettuce. The leaves are tossed
about till the salad has taken up all
the dressing, and then they are lifted
with the salad spoon and fork into the
salad bowl, leaving the watery liquid
to be thrown away.-Pittsburgh Tele.

Finally we got out of the heavy cane

his hold in spite of the efforts of the
bear to strike him, and we dismounted,
thinking to get shot. When the bear
saw us he gave a growl and made an
other swipe at Bull that was SO close
the big dog had to let loose and make
a run for it. He headed right toward
Ferguson, with the bear close behind.
Bull lodged to one side, and Ferguson
fired. I saw the bullet pillow a furrow
in the bears back, but it was too high
to do any good, and before either of us
could shoot again the brute was right
on Ferguson. He was very active for
an old man, and he gave leap to one
side that Durham might be proud of.
The bear slapped at him as he jumped,
and one of his claws caught in the old
mans boot. 1t split the leather like
knife, and when Ferguson scrambled
to his feet he had only one boot, and
there was cash in the calf of his leg

ones lay under the shadow of his
mighty frame. Blood and foam were
oozing from his mouth; his coat was
all muddy and bloody; his eyes were
ablaze with the Berserk light of battle,
and it was evident that he intended to
run no further. Occasionally a dog
would dash at him. and he would
swing one of his mighty paws with
force enough to kill an OK. If it struck
the dog, that ours hunting days were
over, but usually the dog would dodge
and another one would engage the bear
on the other side. 1t was difficult to
shoot the bear without striking the
dogs, although every few minutes
somebody would send a rifle bulletsinto
the brute, but lead seemed to have no
power to kill him.
sold Ferguson was limpint, around
yelling like an Indian and swearing
like pagan. He was trying TO get the
dogs off, SO we could give the coup de
grace without danger to them, and,
with the exception of Bull, they paid
no attention to him. Bull was eager

but he was too welltrained, and stood
by Ferguson with one paw uplifted and
quivering with excitement. After the
bear, had killed his ninth dog old Fer
guson crossed the stream, and, getting
on the bank above the bear, tried to
get down shot at him. The bank was
slightly overhanging and the earth was
loosened by recent rains. just as
Ferguson had drawn his bead at
the top of the bears head,
which the muzzle of the gun nearly
touched, the bank caved. Ferguson and
about two hundred pounds of dirt fell
on the bear, who rolled over on his
back. Ferguson was up first, and
started to run. The bear saw him, and
with a demoniacal growl rushed at
him. There was not two feet space
between Ferguson's coattails and the
bears nose, and they were headed to-
ward us. So, of course, we couldn't
shoot. thought it was all up with
Ferguson, and SO it would have been

the Infatuated beast and secured a
throat hold. N thirty seconds the
bear crushed the dogs ribs with blow
of his paw, then mashed his skull with
one bite of his tremendous jaws, but in
the same thirty seconds Ferguson was
out of harms way, and a fifty-six-cali-
