The Modern Ideal Kitcbeu.

1.-THE Ideal Kitchen" is treated at
length, described in detail by James
Thompson, and illustrated in tho La.
dies Home Journal. Mr.. Thompson
says that in the model kitchen of the
present the walls should be of glazed
tyles or enameled brick to the height
of six or seven feet In place of these,
painted brick or plaster may be used.
Soapstone is also excellent The tiles
or brick should be carried clear to the
floor; no wooden baseboards must be
used. The floor should be of tiles,
plain mosaic, stone or cement, all hard
and dirt-resisting and easily kept clean.
Have as little woodwork as possible.
and what you are obliged to have let it
be plain, with as few joints and crew
ices as possible. Your cook will at first
object to this style OF flooring. but a
few days care of this clearly surface
will convince her.

Wanted. an Honest Market,

American stock raisers have for years
been clamoring that their interests are
being injured by the greed of the re-
tailers of meats. They say that the
prices at which the live animals are
purchased from them bear no relative
position to the prices at which meats
are retailed. They point out that there
have sometimes been advances in the
retail price at the same time that the
prices of live stock were declining.
1t is for the interest Of all breeders Of
stock that meat be sold to the people at
as low price as possible, the middle
man and the retailer being content with
a fair profit. This has a tendency to
stimulate greater demand for meat.
With such stimulation there could be
no meat of any kind exported, as the
home market would take everything the
stockmen could raise.
Let us illustrate. Last year we ex-
ported live stock products as follows in
value: Live cattle, $33,461 1922: live
hogs, $14,756; live sheep, 1892, 763: beef
products, 2S,259, 1868; mutton. STA. 400;
pork products, $93, 433 ,592. This gives
q grand total Of $156, lit ,296. Reckon
ing our population at 7O,O0O,00O. this
would represent 1928 per capita per
year, a little more than AZ cents per
week. In other words, it would be nee
essary only to increase our consump-
tion per capita AZ cents worth per week
to consume the entire product now be-
ing exported.
This could be done by selling meats
at fair price. The fact is that a great
many markets all over the country
charge high prices, sell less meat. but
make just as much money as they would
IN selling a larger quantity at lower
price. They prefer this plan, for it
saves them the trouble of handling the
extra amount OF meat. They are thus
the gamers, but both the producers and
the consumers are the losers. 1t Is not
what we would call an honest market,
which would operate to the advantage
of all concerned. We cannot, however.
expect to see any reform along this line.
as result of preaching. Commercial
selfishness is stronger than commercial
philanthropy. The position will yield
only to commercial force. The time
may come when stockmen of all kinds
will be compelled to take measures to
see that their products are placed in
the hands of the consumers at a rea-
sOnahle nrice

Perhaps no more momentous utter

It can literally be said that the fate OF

that Great Britain is far more con-

WHERE GRAIN GROWS,

Manitoba's magnificent crop of 1895
demonstrates the wonderful fertility
and productiveness of the soil of that
western Canadian province. The yield
of wheat on 1,145,276 acres was about
$4,000 900 bushels; of oats, nearly 3d.
00O,O bushels on 482,57S acres; of bar
ley, 5000, 900 on 1853, S39 acres, and there
were besides 100000 bushels Of fax.
$4,000 bushels of rye and $4,000 bushels
Of peas. This is an average of over 80
bushels Of wheat to the acre, Of GO bush
els Of oats, and of 80 bushels of barley;
and this immense crop was safely har-
vested by $4,000 farmers, many of whom
settled In Manitoba within the past ten
years with very little capital except in
dustry and energy, and some with little
or no experience whatever in farming.
In the aggregate these $4,000 farmers
have averaged 1850 bushels Of grain of
all kinds; and besides this have pro-
duced magnificent crops of roots, pota-
toes, cabbages, onions and garden vege-
tables of all kinds. They have shipped
to eastern markets, in addition, thou
sands of head Of sleek cattle and large
numbers of sheep. And al! this has
been accomplished without the exper-
diture of one dollar for artificial fer
tilizers and with very small outlay for
wages.
Beyond this province are fertile lands
and ranching country stretching miles
to the foothills of the Rocky Noun
tans. These are divided into the dis
tricts Of Assiniboia, Saskatchewan and
Alberta. The eastern part of the + ,rm-
er is also admirably adapted for wheat
raising and mixed farming, and the
western part Of the district and the
southern half of Alberta combine to
furnish the great cattle rancnes of the

Feed the Corn Crop.

What shall We do with the enormous
corn crop? is a question receiving a
great deal of thought at the present
time. Any crop shipped long distances
to market in its crude state cannot
bring as satisfactory and renlunerative
returns as If manufactured into fin
ished products" Whether the corn
crop of 1895 will be a blessing or the
reverse, to the producer, depends en-
tirely on the wisdom he displays on
marketing it.
1t will prove a blessing only when
disposed of at profit. At the prices
now prevailing many Of us will be un-
able to realize above the cost of pro-
duction. unless by some other method
of disposing OF it than in it's original
state. Shipping it as a raw product
involves the expense of additional
freight. BY becoming manufacturer
and converting his corn, oats and hay
into beef, pork, mutton or butter the
farmer not only obtains an increased
price for his crop, but also profit on
the finished product. The farmer who
has or can obtain hogs and cattle to
feed corn, will hold a decided advan-
tage over the man who places his crop
ON the market in its crude state. BY
feeding the entire products of the farm
at home the fertility of the land is not
only kept up. but is increased. The
successful farmer is the one who con-
verts all he raises into finished prod
ucts. "-American Corn and Hog Jour.

had four Barred Plymouth Rocks, a
trio of Black Minorcas and six mongrel
hens. Finding my room too small for
two breeds. I disposed Of the Minorca
cock and put them all in one pen. The
mongrels contained a preponderance of
Leghorn blood and laid small white
egg. the Minorcas a large white egg,
and the Plymouth Rocks a brown egg,
so that had no trouble in distinguish
ing them. For the year the percentage
of eggs laid by each was as follows:
Two Minorcas 21h per cent: four B.
P. Rocks. 40 per cent: six mongrels, 3SA
per cent.
Through the months Of April and
May the mongrels laid more eggs than
the other six. but at no other time did
they equal either the Minorcas or Ply

I have no doubt that a few years.
breeding would have raised the stand
