"Heeltaps" OF Soup.

Five bowls of soup is not too much
for some of the poor little girls who
are fed gratuitously at some of the
industrial schools on the East and West
Sides. When the little boys and girls
who have been hidden to the feast
have satisfied themselves, they take
what is left over in the bowls and
empty it into buckets, to be taken
home to the starving mothers at
home.
The mothers are glad to get these
buckets of soup, even though it has
been collected from a hundred bowls
that have been used by the children at
school. The little girls take turns in
collecting these heeltaps of soup. The
privilege is blessed one to starving
families, and the children soon learn,
in the bitter school OF poverty, how
to make the most Of any unconsidered
trife that may come in their way.
1t might be thought that an extra
gallon OF soup could be made for the
sake Of the mother were it not known
that the supply of soup to equal the
demand would be an impossibility.
The officials make great quantity of
soups of various kinds. There is
bean soup, pea soup. vegetable soup
and plain soup, and it is all enjoyed.
The most popular kind seems to be
bean soup. There are great quaint.
ties of this soup consumed, and the
children always seem to be hungry
for it. The soup collected in the
buckets is necessarily mixed, but the
poor women at homo do not mind
that. They warm it up when they
have fire, and enjoy it all the more,
perhaps, because it is unlike any soup
made BY the ordinary cook. New
York journal,

FEEDING HENS FOR EGGS.

Farmers generally feed too much
corn; its fattening properties are sc
great that 1t should be fed sparingly
and then on the cob, except that for the
night meal on cold day hot corn is
excellent.
Buckwheat or wheat should be the
principal feed during winter. Oats are
good when the ground is bare and there
is free access to gravel and grit.
Warm milk or water, along with
crushed oyster shells, should be pro
Vided literally. Liquids are necessary
for the formation of egg shells.
Scraps from the table, peelings ant
cabbage are equally relished by IBID

for will give good returns in the egg
basket.-New England Homestead.

l'y other pasture range until the last
of June, when a full ration of corn is
fed. BY the last of August or Sept. l
they are ready to sell. Out of this
young herd every spring the most likely
females are taken and bred to farrow
as before, keeping no sows over winter.
This gent1eman's methods in this
line are worthy Of imitation and his
success as a farmer has been perfectly
satisfactory to him through succes,
sion Of years No doubt the average
price obtained has been above fall and
winter level, and think IL taken
through his twenty years would come
pretty close to the five cent mark. Hav-

know of their merits. On Aug. 80 last
thirty-eight head averaged two hundred
and fifty-siX pounds and netted him
at home scales $330.SO. A lot Of thirty
sold on July 10, 1895, averaged two
hundred and sixty-five pounds and
netted him $370.37. There are certainly
many advantages in this plan and
taken upon an average basis the price
is likely to be higher at the season he
disposes of his product than at any
other time In the year.-American As

For Breakfast.

Sometimes even the most fastidious
woman forgets that the keynote Of
1aintiness Is struck by the morning
toilet. A model Of all that she should
be at other times, her breakfast ap-
parel gives every outward evidence Of
haste, and leaves much to be desired.
A woman who has made a hasty
morning toilet is by no means a thing
Of beauty. Therefore, she who is wise
valiantly foregoes the joy of the for
hidden nap. She rises betimes, sup
ported by the thought that Of such stuff
martyrs are made, and after her matu-
tipal dip, us she arranges her hair as
becomingly as she would later in the
day for luncheon or shopping ex-
pedition, she finds herself at peace
with all the world, even including the
cook.
It's only little thing in the days
doings, but it tells. The woman who
presides at the breakfast table, neat,
fresh and rosy, is fulfilling part Of her
mission in life.
Her husband is as much stimulated
by her presence as By the fragrant cup
Of Mocha which she dispenses, and,
though seemingly absorbed in his news
paper as he sips his favorite beverage,
in reality he sees every detail Of the
dainty toilet, knowing that it was made
for his eyes alone, and, man-like. ap.
preciating it all the more for that very
reason.

The first requisite Of a market gar

This may be accomplished by syste'

cial fertilizers. He must study the
tastes and wants of his customers, for

is to get his products into proper and

best in another, with prices CORES

FEMININE DAIRY WISDOM.

AS given to the world by Dorothy
Tucker through the Farm Journal:
Sailing regularly is one very impor-
tant matter In the dairy.
When cows have not received an
abundance of salt, and then change
to regular sailing is practiced, great
change both in quantity and quality Of
milk can be noticed. A still better
plan Is to keep, it where each COW can
help herself whenever she desires.
The best cows are always the heavy
feeders.
IL they eat heartily and are healthy,
nnd do not lay on fat, you may be sure
that it is going somewhere, and you
will always find it in the milk pail.
Good, regular care will count now.
Breeding and natural capacity are
powerless to contribute to successful
stock raising unless accompanied by
thoughtfulness, intelligence and regu-
lar care.
Merit is not proof against neglect,
starvation and abuse. Give a COW just
enough to keep her alive and how can
she fill the milk pail?
Too many unobserving men expect
this, and then wonder why they are
poor.
How many farmers are preparing to
idle away the winter? Is there any
excuse for such practices, and is there
any other business that will permit it?
Winter butter production is more
profitable than summer; then why not
be winter producer?
Every degree you raise the tempera-
tlIre of the stable up to comfort saves
food and is one step in the right direc-
ton for prosperity. s.
Don't let the heifers form the habit
Of drying up early. With plenty Of
food and good care they will milk near
ly the year round.
Be sure that linseed meal forms q
part of the grain ration now.
Don't neglect the daily brushing and
cleaning Of every COW. There is moth
ing like pure, simple, old-fashioned
cleanliness.
Get special customers for your but
ter, and furnish it every week. 1t is
worth few cents per pound to the con-
sumers to know that they are eating
pure, clean butter, and not oleo or
some other manufactured stuff, and
there is big difference between cash
and trading out butter

1t Fitted the Place.
is little restaurant over on

his patrons considerably by coming

consulting with them about the name

Last night two men dropped in
there for a bite. Tue food was none

the check, the proprietor began at
them.

oh, I guess so, said the older man !;
II guess so. How much is that
check?"
"Ninety cents. I am glad you are

dairy as to what name shall give this

gest?"
"Want name, eh?" said the older
man.
Eyes, do, and I would be very
glad if you would make suggestion. !"

ought to be, in p measure, descriptive
OF the place?" said the younger man.
"That would be my idea," replied
the proprietor.
"Well, then, I would suggest that
