Setting Hens.

Just now is the time we hear the
farmer and farmers wife telling which
kind of hens are no good, because 'they
will never stop wanting to set" To
those who do not understand the
nature of their fowls, the case seems
complicated, but. it is not,-therefore
make a study of your fowls, whatever
kind they be, and you'll find they are
Ill good ones.
The ones condemned the most are
the Cochins, Brahmas, etc, and they
are perfectly innocent. When n Rrahma
wants to set, they want To all over;
their whole constitution and nature is
changed, and shutting in a box, starv-
ing, drowning, tying legs up with red
rags, etc, is not using the hen right
and will not change her condition.
Yen only keep the hen away from what
she wants, and the time required is in
proportion to her memory. When she
forgets, she will cease to cluck, and not
before. Take your setting hen, as you
would a sick patient. and doctor it.
Give it the nearest to freedom you can
and keep confined. Let her have light
and sunshine, places to dust, and exer-
Else. Give her the best G food You
know how to provide, but never allow
her to make a nest. Forcing the hen to
laying again, is the whole thing in a
nut shell. Try the common-sense plan,
and you will not have so much trouble

The Gutta-Percha supply.

Whatever electricity may eventually
prove TO be-and electricians still
seem to be a long way from finding
Quit has some qualities about which
there is little doubt. One of these is
its readiness TO take short cuts, and
run to ground at the slightest op-
portunity, instead of continuing along
the conducting wire, and finishing the
work intended for 1t. The greatest
care has therefore to be taken In insu-
lating wire; that is, covering II with
some material which is a bad conduc-
tor of electricity and will prevent its
escape. From a badly insulated wire
the electricity will leak out Just as
surely as water will leak out of a piH3
full Of holes. AS water is sometimes
used under very high pressure, so cleo
tricity is now employed, especially for
transmission over long distances, and
with the consequent heavy strain
comes the need for Insulating material
of the highest efficiency. Gutta-percha
has been n Of the insulating main
stays of the electric engineer, but dis
quieting rumors have been for some
time prevalent al to the coming fail
IRE of the supply. Good news now
comes from Sarawak. NJ. Hourant, a
French Clutch merchant In that city,
has discovered that gutta-percha can
be extracted from the dried leaves OF
the dried leaves of the gutta tree. The
old native plan, which threatened TO
ruin the industry, was to cut down a
tree to obtain the SAP. A tree 30 years
of age would give only one 'catty' OF
pure dry gutta; the same quantity Is
now obtained from two ~pluckings OF
the leaves. These pluckings are said
not to injure the tree, which goes on
seeding and reproducing Its species.
The million Of trees already cut down.
and apparently destroyed by the ma
tive gutta hunters, which now come
into service as their stumps have
sprouted out much as an osier does.
and although the shoots are too small
to produce gutta their leaves are as
good for the purpose az those OF an
adult tree. -

A Use for Abandoned Farms.

A new use has been found for aban-
In Scotland many of the largest land
ed proprietors depend largely upon
the rental of their deer forests In the
annual returns from their estates, and
In England there are tnnumerable
stretches OF land which, at present
agricultural prices, pay better to rent
for shooting than farming. 1t Is sag
gested that many abandoned farms in
this country can, at comparatively
slight expense, be made TO yield a fair
return by being turned into game pre-
serves. Gunners have every year to
go further and further from home In
search of game, and the time must
come, when the English plan of pre-
serving game birds will have to be
adopted, If there is to be any sport
left in the country. Good. well-stock-
ell shooting lands will then fetch high
prices, and some ~wide-awake business
men propose to be early in the field.
The movement has been hitherto main
ly confined TO shooting and country
clubs, which, having acquired runs OF
property, have prohibited the indis-
eliminate killing Of game on their
lands or OF fish in their rivers by the
public; but 1t is probable that such
acquisition and preservation will soon
form Il distinct branch of private enter
prise. To show it's possibilities a Con-
necticut farmer has bought up q lot
OF abandoned farms and swamp and
wood land, a~ggregating about 5000
acres, and fenced it in. In this do
main he intends to encourage the de-
velopment of all kinds Of game indig-
enous to that region-winged. finned
or four-footed. He has one patch OF
twelve acres sown wholly to buck
wheat, which will not be cut, but left
for the Bob Whites" These birds
perish in great numbers in hard win
ters. as well as ruffied grouse. aud
plenty Of brush will be left on the res
ervation for their protection and shell
ter.

drives them, doing far better work
than 1t Is possible to do by hand. The

Warming Skinned milk for calves.

Feeding calves milk is an important
part of the dairy work, yet very few
farmers are well provided with facili-
ties for the warming of milk to the
proper temperature. To many farm
ers' wives are burdened with the incon-
v%enience of warming the milk over the
kitchen stove in pans. To overcome
this unpleasant work, a simple, yet
practical way, and one that is within
reach of all who choose to adopt it, is
here suggested. Take a large size COM
mon stove kettle, place it on the stove
and fill it nearly half full of water. In
this kettle place a common shot gun
car which contains the skim milk that
is to be fed to the calves. It does not
take more than from eight to ten min
rtes to warm a canful Of milk up to the
proper temperature, providing there is
a good fire in the stove. When the can
of milk in the kettle is warm, take it
out and replace another one, and con-
tinue to do so till there is sufficient
milk warmed for all the calves to be
fed.
This method of warming milk has
been in practice at the editorial dairy
farm for many years. In the morning
the milk is SKINNED before we sit down
to meal, so hat while we are eating
the milk is being warmed, and general
ly by the time morning meal is disposed
of the milk is all warmed and ready to
be fed to the calves. At evening the
same process is repeated. On our farm
the average number of calves fed is IA
to 16, and generally three shot gun cans
full of milk is plenty. This quantity of
milk is often warmed up inside of thirty
minutes. This method is preferred to
all others, not only hat it is the sim
plest way, but because where the milk
is surrounded on the bottom by water
it Ices not burn, as is often the case
where milk in pans is set on the
stove.
Calves do not take kindly to burnt
milk on account of is peculiar taste,
and while a small Mount of it may not
injure them the use of it is very cues
tionable.
A young calf should never be fed
cold milk. 1t should nave its milk at
as near 90 degrees as possible every
day. To maintain this uniform temper
AZURE in the milk, the above method is
all that could be desired.

RESULT OF A Row.
A Shooting Array that Will Prove

from a dispute between Gondoif and
one Of the inmates of a house of i'll

Gondolf is still alive, but with alb
solutely no hope of recovery. The
bullet entered the right side near the
shoulder and ranged downward
through the lungs. The wound was
probed eleven inches without finding

thirty years old. and with his brother
has managed a prize package tea store
here and at various other places. His
brother arrived from Dubuque this
morning. They made a good deal OF
money at their business and spent
IL freely, but were never consid-
cred iissipated or Quarrelsomc. 1t Is
a fact, however, that the man who
was shot made a good deal OF trouble
at Ollie Reeds house Of Ill fame earli-

it is probable GondOlf struck Wheeler
with a beer bottle, as two people near
by heard the sound OF breaking glass.
Wheeler drew his pistol and fired,
then went to a saloon near by and told
the proprietor what he had done.
Wheeler is fifty-seven years old to-
day. He is a man of fair education
ard some property. He was a soldier
in the civil war and attained the rank

very hard, even for four horses. In a
field 40 rods long, we generally stopped
at both ends, toallow the team on sub

After the ground was plowed and sub

MRS. J. s. WILSON, In Dakota Farmer.
Now that Jack Frost has destroyed
the plum crop, the thrifty housewife
begins to consider the possibilities of
her pie plant patch. II she wishes good
fresh tarted pies and sauce, let her care
fully wash and cut her pie plant fine;
pack it tightly in bottles filed up with
cold water, and screw on the cover. If
lids and rubbers are good and tight,
the pie plant will be so nice she will
uever want to stew it again before can
aing unless bottles are scarce. A one
quart bottle of uncooked pie plant
makes but three pies and a two quart
one five pies. For sauce it requires a
few minutes boiling up and sweet
ening.
To make pie plant jelly take the old
est and woodiest stalks; prepare as for
sewing. Fill a one gallon stone or
aarthen jar, heaping full, makes juice
enough for four cups of jelly. Do not
put any water in the jar, but put in the
steam cooker if you have one; if not
put some little blocks in the bottom of
deep Dinner kettle; SET the jar on them
and put water in until it comes nearly
TO the top of the kettle; cover tightly
rs possible and boil. Add boiling wa
Ter if the kettle inclines to boil dry.
When the pie plant is done the jar will
be about half full; drain through a
jelly bag, but do not squeeze. Make
two boilings of the juice. Allow one
and one-fourth pint of sugar to one
pint of juice, boil the juice more than
half away before add ing the sugar.
Put the sugar in carefully or it will
scorch before all moistened, but do not
stir it if it can be avoided, as the sugar
IS apt to crystalize in the jell afterwards.
Poll hard till it jells when dropped
from a spoon. Unless boiled very hard
On a gasoline stove it will take Is or 20
minutes to boil before adding sugar,
and perhaps 10 after. If made right
The jelly will be a beautiful light color,
aot thick and quivering hike plum or
currant, but after standing a few weeks
will cut with 4 spoon, and not be d
'salve. If a lump of bitartrate of pot
ash (strong cream of ~tarter) the size Of
I pea is added to graduated sugar it is
not so apt to crystalize in jell or home
made candy.
Jelly will keep two or three years in
the top of the cupboard where it will
not freeze, and will not mould if one
thickness of light brown wrapping pa
per is tied on the cups three or four
Jays after filling.
If pie plant is scarce a fair marmalade
Fan be made from the pulp after the
juice is taken out, by adding the juice
Of a lemon or two and a little peel,
sweetening and cooking stiff, but it
will not be as nice tarted as that made
from pie plant that has not been
robbed. Or the pulp can be put in the
jar again, and the jar filled with water,
when after standing a couple of days
It can be strained into the jar of sweet
ened water, that is standing in some
warm place to make vinegar.
