CURING GRASSES AND c1oyEps.

The natural grasses, when cut for
hay, are generally spread and dried as
rapidly rs possible in order to secure
them in the best possible condition.
The same method is not applicable to
the clover crop. 1t requires longer
time to cure properly, and if exposed
to the scorching sun it is injured more
than the natural grasses, since its sue
culent leaves and tender blossoms are
quickly Drowned and lose their sweet
ness in a measure, and are themselves
liable to be wasted in handling over.
Many prefer curing in the cock. Now
clover when dry aud free from dew;
let it wilt, and the same day it is
mown fork it into cocks which will
weigh from forty to fifty pounds when
fit Tor the barn. Do not rake and roll,
as that will compress it too much.
Place it in the barn according to the
weather, but it may be safely moved
away while The heads and stalks are
comparatively green and fresh. When
fit to cart, the green stalks will be
found to be destitute, or nearly SO, Of
sap, as the sap has candied and the
clover will keep. On the day of cart
ing turn the cocks over, expose the
bottom to the sun an hour or 80, and
to each ton of hay as it goes into the
NOV add four to six quarts of salt.

APAYING BUSINESS.

The most salable farm animal to
day is first-class dairy COW. We Of
ten wonder why more farmers back on
the hilly, rough pasture farms do not
make business of raising heifers of
good milking strains to supply milk
men in the milk-producing counties.
Let the milch COW pass the first two
years of her life on cheap land and
not try to pay interest on costly land
until she is able to give milk. Last
year we told OF Massachusetts far
mer who takes his biefers by rail to
cheap pastures in Maine every spring,
wintering even on grey-hay and oil
and cotton-seed meals. These hiefers
are sold to milkmen with their first
calf. We believe that a man could,
in o few years, establish reputation
for good milking stock, and be as
sured of a steady income. Some men
con make this pay better thai ordin-
airy dairying. Rural New Yorker.

PLANTING TREES ON THE SURFACE.

1t is customary to dig a hole for the
tree to be transplanted; but this is
not necessary to success. There are
places where the rock comes so near
the surface that there is not room to
dig ahole without putting the roots on
the rock. The tree may then be set
on the surface of the ground, first re-
moving or turning over the sod, so
that the roots will not come in contact
with that. A tree thus planted, with
its roots spread on fine mould and
covered with suficiency of soil pro-
cured from distance to hold it in
position, is better fitted for growing
than are most trees set in hole and
covered even with the surrounding
surface. Stakes should be driven into
the soil beside these trees, and
the trees should be tied to them
until they become firmly rooted.
This plan is of advantage where stag
nant water comes near the surface, as
the tree is thus put on a mound and is
not obliged to extend its roots into
the subsoil. Boston Cultivator.

WHO is RESPONSIBLE?

Is the liquor dealer alone responsible for
the criminality involved in the business he
conducts? Is not society criminally allied
with him? Is not the community which not
only stands by and tacitly consents to the
continuance of the liquor traffic as now car
ried on, but by forms of law legalizes II and
shares its bloody revenue, criminally respon-
sible for the evils 1t inficts2 In the case Of
one OF the Homestead rioters, Judge Nc
Gee, Of Pittsburg, said 81 wish to say that
the law makes every man who stands idly by
without any effort to suppress the riot and
disorder, guilty of rioting. Such man is
responsible for all the consequences Of dis
order and rioting, whether such riotlng re-
suits in the loss of property or the loss OF
life. No matter what the results. such a
man is equally guilty for such degree OF
crime as the facts and results warrant. "
II the liquor traffic, as now carried forward,
Is crime, then, according to the reasoning
Of Judge McGee, all who stand "idly by
without any effort to suppress" this traffic,
are guilty of the crime Of liquor selling, and
are responsible for all tho evil consequences
that flow from the selling.

School Laws in the States.

The Bureau Of Education is making
compilation OF the school laws of
various States. 1t will show that the
regulations as to appointment and
qualification of teachers aud their
methods of teaching vary greatly IN
the different sections of the country.
Some difficulty has been met by the
Bureau in obtaining the State statutes,
and in many cases they have been
bought outright from the States. The
compilation probably will bo pub
lished next autumn, and after publica-
tion in the annual report of the COM
missioners of education may be issued
in q separate edition of 10000 copies.

The Growth OF One Generation.

Thirty years is one generation, and
it is estimated that 200 generations
will take one back to the time of
Adam. In these 200 generations
much has been done by mankind in
the way of improvement and much of
what has been done is now claimed by
the modern woman as due to woman
ly influence.
Unfortunately statistics are wanting
for a considerable portion of the above
period, and the modern woman is
forced to base her argument more or
less on comparisons and analogy. 1t
may be of interest in this connection
to view the progress made by the sex
in the generation between the last two
censuses, us shown by official statis-
tics. These figures show remarka-
BILE increase in the number of women
as wage-earners in the professions. A
few of the more important classes are
tabulated as follows:

EGG OUTLETS.

To prepare egg outlets take FIVE
eggs, one tablespoonful of butter,
three-fourths of teaspoonful of salt,
one-eighth of teaspoonful of pepper,
crumbs for breading and fat for fry
ing. Put four of the egs in a deep
saucepan and fill up with boiling
water. Cover and let them stand on
the coolest part Of the rauge for twen-
ty minutes. At the end of this time
pour off the hot water and cover with
cold water. Remove the shells and
cut the eggs in two, lengthwise, using
a plated knife. Leta soup plate stand
in hot water until heated through.
Put the butter, salt and pepper in this
plate and stir until the butter is
melted.
Beat the fifth egg in another soup
plate, and have third plate filed
with dry and sifted bread crumbs.
Drop the eggs one at a time in the
melted butter, then in the beaten egg,
and finally roll them in the crumbs.
Lay them on platter and set in a
cold place Until it is time to cook
them; then put them in the frying
basket and cook in hot fat for one
minute. Serve with bisque or curry
sauce. These eggs make delicious
luncheon or supper dish. New York

GETTING prrvrs REApY ron MARKET.

Finishing off beeves quickly for
market is highly important at times,
and never moro SO than now when the
continuance of present high prices can
only be conjectured. 1t is a most
favorable time, therefore, to fatten
and sell not only all creatures that
will make prime beef, but all farrow
cows, light oxen or lean steers and
any description of neat cattle that can
no longer be kept at profit. As q
rule, the sooner farmer is quit of
such stock the better. Rich pasture
and heavy feeding with cotton seed or
linseed (crushed or ground), wheat
bran, oat meal or corn meal, will put
these cattle in passable condition in n
surprisingly short time. Begin with
a small quantity when cattle are not
used TO grain, increasing the allowance
steadily until they are taking oil they
can eat without apparent detriment. -

Eight Miles an Hour.

Several of the great trunk railroads
OF the North are experimenting on
their branch lines with electricity as n
motive power and the reports OF its
use are very satisfactory. It has been
demonstrated that electricity is
cheaper than steam and that it will
give any rate of speed that can reason
ably be desired.
A few days ago an electric locomo-
tive on the Nantasket branch of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad WAS run at speed of eighty
miles an hour.
Hardly anybody wants to go ut that
rate even in these fast times, but the
experiment has demonstrated that
electricity may be applied for rapid
transit.
Opinions differ as to prospects of
general substitution of electricity
for steam on railroads but the tend
ency is clearly in that direction and
many practical railroad men believe
that within few years the bulk OF
railroad business will be moved by

The Telnniorranh in use.

The practical use which was made
of Professor Elisha Gray's latest in
vention, the telautograph, last Friday,
in transmitting autograph letters from
Cleveland, Ohio, by means of an
ordinary telegraph wire 43l miles to
the office Of q Chicago newspaper
amounts, it is claimed, to demon
stration of the fitness Of this new in
strument to serve the purpose fol
which it was designed. Seven years
the inventor has been at work per
fecting the transmitting and receiving
instruments, and he was able to show
some creditable results five years age
when the first public experiments were
made. Later at the Worlds Fair he
made an exhibition of the powers of
his machine, which was considered
wonderful, but it was only two months
ago that long-distance test was sue
cessfully made showing that the in
vention had become entirely practical.
This test was between London and
Paris, a distance of over 800 miles,
and the results were satisfactory at
every point. In this country the first
practical use of the new device was the
Oleveland-Chicag correspondence of
last Friday. Autograph letters and
original drawings were reproduced by
electricity with only few seconds loss
of time at distance of hun
dreds of miles from the writer,
and the copy was exact in every line
and dot, faithful reproduction. The
instruments by means of which this
wonder is accomplished are simple in
construction but very delicately ad-
justed. Every motion made by the
pencil in the hand of the writer at the
transmitting instrument is reproduced
by an automatic pen at the receiver,
and perfect copy is the result The
advantage of the device is that it
enables any person to send his own
message without the Intervention of a
skilled operator, and it provides a way
for bankers to sign papers or for busi-
ness men to make out documents in
distant city without the delay of the
mail or the Inconvenience of going
there in person. New York Post.

We have no confidence in remedies
for chicken cholera, and believe the
prevention is the only thing that can
be done When cholera breaks out
among fowls the first thing to be done
is to separate the sick from the we'll

which should be of nourishing
character. Many writer's believe in
giving iron in some form. The old
method was to put rusty nails in the

TEMPERANCE.
pR1NK AND nArLwAY AccIprNra.

The Quarterly Journal OF Inebriety sayg
Recently, n great railroad corporation
gathered all Che facts concerning the men
and the conditions OF every accident which
had occurred on its lines for Ave years.
When tabulated, II appeared that forty per
cent. Of oil accidents were due altogether, on
In part. TO the failures of mon who were
drinking that in eighteen por cent. there
was strong suspicion OF similar causes, yet
no clear proof. In one year over million
dollars worth Of property was destroyed by
the failures OF beer-drinking engineers and
switchmen. The company's rules requiring
temperate men for all positions are moro and
more vigorously enforced. Engineers find
that practically they are unable to do good
work while using spirits even In small doses.
The GOODNESS and presence OF mind SO essen
tial In their work Is broken up by alcohol In
any form.
'Trainmen, men exposed TO the weather,
reach the same conclusion, II they are prac.
tical men. The startling mortality OF brake
men Is referable In many cases TO the use Of
alcohol to drive out the cold, or keep awake
In long hours Of service. Each year the
duties and responsibilities Of railroad mon
increase, and men more temperate, accurate.
prompt and careful In their work are re-
quired. Only absolutely temperate men can
do this work Tor any length OF time; all Others
fail and are dangerous in their weakness.

lost no fowls. Others advocate cay
