Chair for Pfnssa Work,

One Of the essentials for piazza work
Is a comfortable chair with Just the
right slope to the back, which must be
high enough to afford rest for the
head when one feels inclined to medi-
tate or repose. The ordinary piazza
chairs, with split seat and back of white
wood shellacked or vanished, are Just
the thing for foundation, being mex
pensive and firmly made. Select one
without rockers, but with broad arms.
Get carpenter to make shelf about
~ inches wide, and have this secured
firmly to the right arm. This will serve
as small table, either nsa resting place
for books or for sewing materials. Be-
low this, against the rounds of the
chair, attach with strong cord or wire
wicker basket Of good size, with ample
accommodation for the weekly mend.
Ing, fancy work, crochet and knitting

SONG BIRDS MAKE 1T GAY.
Oregon Valley tn Which the TriIl Of
Feathered SonEster r. Neyor Ccaae4

Feathered SOnEsters Nevcr Ceases.
In the years 1881 and 1892 society
ia Portland, Ore, introduced 400 pairs
of song birds from Germany into that
state, at an expense Of little more than
$4,000. Of these the plain and black
headed nightingales have probably
become extinct, because few of them
survived the long trip and none have
since been seen, but the other species
have multiplied with great rapidity,
especially the skylarks, which rear
from two to four broods every year, so
that the whole Willamette valley, from
Portland to Rosebud, is full of them.
Besides these, threre are black star
lings, wood larks, song thrushes, black
thrushes, goldfinches, chaffinches, sis
Rins, greendnches, bullfinches, cross
beals, robin redbreasts, linnets, sing
ing quails, gold hammers and forest
finches. When it ia remembered that
the insects and fungus diseases most
dangerous to our vegetation are those
which have been imported into this
country from abroad, and that ami
mails and birds which are held In check
by some balance nuisances in foreign
country, just as rabbits have been in
Australia and the English sparrow In
this country, 1t is possible that some Of
these songsters may prove injurious to
crops. The chances are, however, that
they will do more to help the farmer by
keeping insects in check than they will
to injure HMM. Y. Tribune.

He is going to save all this by placing with
his patrons Dairy Separators, and have
wagons call for the cream.

vantage of the Separator and creamery sys
TENS, will have the warm fresh skim milk
at home for stock feed and will not be at ey-
pense OF carting his milk to creamery.
Before ordering these 500 Separators, val
ued at over $50 900, the merits OF all the
different Dairy Separators on the market
were very thoroughly considered and prae.
teal tests were made by Mr. Moody
It was finally decided that the Sharples
Separators, made at West Chester, Pa,
were the most desirable and best made ma.
chimes, and though costing little more
money, il was thought they were well worth
the difference asked, and the order was
given to that company

Ignorance is responsible for many ills. TO thoughtful mind this is at once ap- parent, and the more we reflect upon It, the more obvious it becomes. We do not propose to offer lengthy thesis OH this subject, but merely to draw atten- tion to the column under the heading: Some opinions of Alaska.
 We who reside here cannot wonder at the remarkable ignorance which pre- yails as to Alaska and her resources, when the very text books used tor edu- cat;onal purposes give information on the subject which does not amount to mediocrity.
 The curriculum in use at public school examinations undoub edly involves ques- tions touching Alaska and her products. and students who closely ,llow the text books can give no more truthful answer than that Alaska is noted for it's furs, its fisheries and its forests.
 We can even imagiue case i'll which some juvenile who, having a correspon dent ill our midst, replied to some query during examination that Alaska was great gold producer and had well de- fined mineral belt and the largest stamp mill in the world, being mildly rebuked by the examiner whose knowledge of the country was obtained from some such standard authority as the Encyclopedia Britannica, which says, "coal and iron are the most important miner Is, but the Value of the deposits remains to be as- certained.'
 We recollect once attending a meet ing of the Royal Geographical Society ill which Alaska was referred to as being distinguished by the fact of its having the second largest river i'll the world The knowledge of tue country appeared to begin and end at that and no further interest was manifested in the subject.
 This is all era of education and to this end we must apply ourselves. Great re- suits oan not be ach eyed at once, but we must advance continually, step by step, and we need not fear for the ultimate issue: -...
