Cut Bone.

1t is now settled beyond all doubt
that no food is more productive OF
good results in the poultry yard than
cut bone The poultry raiser, large or

at least once a day with a feed of cut

losing good eggs when they are worth
good money.
In the first place, cut bone is a
cheaper feed than any of the grains,
and, in the second place, it increases
the eggs produced in a manner
eQualed by no other food. In feeding.
perhaps the best results may be OBJ
tanned by letting the evening meal con-
sist entirely of bone, giving one ounce
for each fowl and feeding grain in
the morning. For growing fowls the
bone supplies nearly every element
needed in the food, and l find that they
thrive on it.
Bone cutters are now sold so reas-
onably that every farm should have
one as certainly as it has an ak to
cnOp the stove wood.-Farm News.

BOON FOR THE TRAVELLERS.
Combination Parlor and Sleeping Cars
for Short Journeys.

A problem upon which railway men
have long exhausted their brain power
is the production of a combination
sleeping and parlor car. 1t is believed
that a thoroughly practical and also a
very attractive car has now been con-
structed which will fill the long sought
requirements. The berths are stored
beneath the floor of the car, and the
necessary space for storing is obtailed
by compartment which extends the
entire distance between the trucks
Under the floor a pocket or recess is
constructed, having its sides formed of
heavy steel channel irons. This
pocket, which is dust proof. is deep
enough to contain two berths with
springs and mattresses, made up COM
plete. When the berths have to be up
a section Of the floor is raised. and
they are swung up, adjusted and
quickly slipped into their places one
after another. The bottom berth is
much larger than in the ordinary car,
and there is therefore more head room
and better ventilation in the berth.
The ventilation of the upper berth is
also a great improvement, as two win
dows, duly screened, open above the
berth, and can be controlled by it's oc-
cupant without in any way disturbing
the occupant in the lower berth.
This simplif1cation of equipment is
an unquestiOnable boom for roads hav-
ing short runs. 1t is no slight advan-
tage to be able to use enc car as a bed
room by night and as a parlor by day.
For excursions nothing could be better.
One of these cars has a kitchen in he
end, and party who chartered it lived
some eight weeks while on an ex-
tended transcontinental trip.-Pitts-
burg Dispatch.

Estimating Surplus Butter.

1t must be borne in mind that the
Babcock test gives only the amount of
butter fat in the milk or cream, and
that the finished product Of butter
contains several ingredients other than
butter fat, so that the amount of but
ter shows an increase ranging from ten
per cent to eighteen per cent. There
for, IN figuring the amount of butter
made, this increase should be added
to the amount of butter fat which is
shown by the Babcock test.
Some creameries add this increase
to the price of the butter. Others add
it to the quantity of butter and then
figure the price of the butter at what
it actually brings. In comparing re
turns from different creameries, it
should be &scertained whether each
Creamery is figuring the price on the
butter fat and paying per pound of
butter fat, or whether one is paying
per pound of butter fat and another
per pound of butter actually made If
the increase is added to the price in
the first creamery, and in the second
creamery is added to the amount of
butter instead of to the price, then
the latter creamery would suffer in
the supposed price paid as compared
with the former, and while it would
appear that the latter creamery paid
less per pound, if you should go back
and figure both on the basis of the
butter fat, it might prove that it real
ly paid more than the former. There
fore, in comparing the prices paid by
different creameries, this difference in
the methods of paying should be un-
derstood, as no true comparison can
be made unless figured upon the same
basis.-EXchange

WARDING OFF Badness.
Means by Which the Hair Can Be Pre-

found that many common uses had be-
come general abuses For example,
the old rule of thoroughly brushing

it is a good rule for some. it is a bad

especially if wiry, should part it
through the middle, brush the one-half
at time carefully and evenly, so as
not to tear it. Your brush is largely
responsible for this, however so use a
long bristle, not too closely strung to-
gether. The French are undoubtedly
high authority on this much abused
subject, and NJ. Tonsorial insists that
the simplest is always the best, and
washing needs nothing beyond weak
bOraX water. Remember not a hand
full, for then it becomes injurious, and,
like the good doctrine of homeopathy,
you find what cures will kill if discre-
ton is left out.
Once month SINCE the ends of your
hair. Most people cut the ends, but
this is bad; it destroys the nOurish-
ment and life. Singing drives the Guid

said to have it's origin among women
of the West Indies, and is probably
true, for they are noted for their beau
tiful hair.
Massage the scalp occasionally; it is
so beneficial; it stimulates circulation;
it prevents the hair falling out, and is
especially good when a small quantity
of vaseline is used, but rub it in care
fully and thoroughly or it leaves your
hair streaked and striped on the out
side, and no benefit is derived to the
scalp and roots, for which it is intend
ed. The old adage of removing gray
hair is an excellent one: "To the fu-
neral of each gray hair pulled comes
twenty mourners," and soon you find
the dead fluid diffusing itself rapidly
among healthy roots and grayness fol-
lows quickly. The abominable habit
of using hot irons to the hair is re-
sponsible for much of the dead, ugly,
colorless fringe that soon becomes a
Disagreement to many an otherwise
pretty face. Use cold water and pa

than heated tongs. 1t is an old say

serve it as long as passible? Now all

THE SHAFTS MURDER.
Assassin Makes Confession Regarding
The SloOdv Deed

1t has been definitely ascertained
that the assassin of the late shah of
Persia is Mollah Reza, a follower of
the Well-knOwn agitator Sheik Jem
Aleddin, who was eXiled in 1891, after
having been convicted of high trea-
son. Later ReZa was also imprisoned
for treason, but subsequently he was
liberated. After his release from pris-
on he continued his attacks upon the
government, was again imprisoned,
was once more released and was actu-
ally granted a pension by the shah.
Since his arrest Reza has been clo.a-
ly questioned by the judicial author
tiles. At first he protested to have
acted entirely of his own accord and
m the interests of his people, to whom,
he asserted, reforms to which they are
justly entitled had been refused.
Later, however, the prisoner confessed
that the assassination of the shah was
the outcome of a deliberately and long
planned conspiracy, and that he (Reza)
was chosen to do the deed. The assas-
sin has also admitted that upon many
occasions he has succeeded in ap-
preaching the late shah under various
DISCUSSES, but it was not until Friday
lest that he got near enough to fire
the fatal shot. The murderer is be-
lieved to have number of accompli-
ces. He has already admitted that
eight percons were in the conspiracy
Two of them, who have been arrested
are the prisoners nieces. They are
both domestics, employed until made
prisoners in the harem of the shah
Reza says he intended to commit sui
eide by blowing out his brains, as soon
rs he was certain that he had killed
the shah but, he added, he was seized
and disarmed before he could carry
out his intentions. The prisoner also
admitted that conspirators had plan.

also believed that the plot was much
more widespread than Reza even now
admits, and some time must elapse be

Lima Beans.

The lima beans are natives of warm
er countries. The large fat lima are
perrennials, or at least plur-annuals, in
their native countries. They, there
fore, require a long season, and one
who expects to grow them in the north
should endeavor in every way to short
en- the period of growth. This may be
done in the first place. by planting the
earlier varieties; and in the second
place by exercising great care in the
selection of soil and in giving partic-
ular attention to cultivation. Light and
so-Called "quick' soils are best. Soils
which are naturally sandy and loose
but which have been enriched in pre-
vious years by the addition of manure,
are excellent for lima beans, especially
if they have a warm exposure, says
the New England Farmer.
The soil should also be dry. Coarse,
raw manure should be avoided on lima
beans, because it tends to make too
rank and too late growth. If any fer
tilizer is applied the year in which the
beans are planted, it should be such as
will become available very quickly,
and therefore tend to hasten the ma
turity of the crop.
Lima beans delight in hot, dry
weather, if only they have an oppor-
tunity of getting their roots deeply
into the soil before dry weather comes
on, and if they are given frequent shall
low tillage for a time.
While it is essential that lima beans
should be gwen the longest season pos
sible, it is, nevertheless, futile to plant
them before the weather is thoroughly
sttled; even though the seeds may ger
inmate, the young plants will be ser
iously checked by inclement weather.
We prefer to plant them week or ten
days after it is safe to plant the ordi-
nary bush garden beans. We have
our ground very thoroughly prepared,
plant them about an inch deep in
about twice the quantity which We de-
sire to have them stand, and then eX-
pect to keep them growing rapidly
until they have reached the tops of the
stakes or trellis. If we use stakes we

feet apart and the rows about four feet
apart, dropping seven or eight beans
III each hill. When the beans are well
up and danger from bad weather and
cut-worm is past, we pull out all but
three or four. The poles should not be
more than six feet high.
Our lima beans were planted in 1895
on the 31st day Of May. They might
have been planted few days earlier
no doubt with perfect safety. If one
desires to get his beans ahead very
early, he can plant them in forcing
house or cold frame in pots or on in
verified sods, or in refuse berry boxes
about two weeks in advance of the
time they are to be set out doors
From these receptacles they can be-
easily transferred to the ground. One
of our constituents says that he always
greases his lima beans thoroughly with
lard when he plants them, and is there
by able to plant his crop a week Oh
