ably. A little effort will make these
wayside watering places very attrac-
tive. A design is suggested herewith
that can be followed to advantage
where water can be brought to the
road in pipe from higher ground. The
tank is made of cobble stones, cement
ed. The roof can be supported by bent
iron rods, or by wooden posts, thelower
ends in either case being imbedded in
the cement and rocks. Get shrubs and
vines growing about, and over, such a
structure, and the place will look espe-
cially inviting, and will be an ornament
to the neighborhood in which it stands.
Such work marks thrift and public
spiritedness'' on the part of the inhabi-
tants.-Orange Judd Farmer.

WATERING PLACES.

They Make Country Highways At
tractive and Endurable.
Along country highways are many
opportunities to tap running stream
or a hillside spring, and so place the
water at the command OF, passing
teams. Frequent watering places along
hot and dusty roads not only show
the humanity of the inhabitants, but
if made attractive they show as well
a progressive, up-to-date spirit that is
quite sure to impress travellers favor.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

The pea vine mixed with corn makes
an ideal ensilage.
The calf should be fed enough bulky
food to keep its belly well rounded.
Feed the heifer calves plenty of bulk
to develop their digestive organs.
If you have thermometer to tell
the proper temperature of the cream,
you will be saved many moment of
labor in churning.
Maj. Alvord says he feeds more en-
silage from August to the middle of
September than in any other similar
period of the year.
Cow peas stepped in hot water for a
couple of hours will increase the milk
and butter more than any other feed,
dairyman claims.
Hoard pleads for from 300 to 1000
cubic feet of air in the stable for each
cow which can be given by raising the
barn or body of the stable higher.
Rennet in quantities so that the milk
will not coagulate before the calf has
finished drinking it, is highly recon-
mended for almost any trouble in the
calf. 7 '5
4 We must make butter that will suit
the taste of the foreign consumer, if
we expect him to buy it, and the first
thing to do is to learn just what he
wants.
In Australia, it is said, the farmer,
his wife and children do the dairy
work, and hence the cost of production
is low. For goodness sake, who does
it in this country, as a rule?
Ropy milk is caused by bacteria. It
is no fault Of the COW. Keep the -udder
and tanks of the COW clean and scald
the milk pail. The bacteria likely
comes from pail or falls from the i'd
der.
AS the result of the shipment of but
ter by our government to England, it
is demonstrated that unless better
prices can be realized it will not pay
creameries to ship butter to that mar
ket. Western Plowman.

Fighting the Currant Worm.

The currant worm does immense
damage to currant bushes every year,
and unless kept down will soon put an
end to the crop. The remedy for the
currant worm is white hellebore, an
ounce of the powder being dissolved in
two gallons of water, applied with a
fine sprinkler. The mixture will also
destroy slugs on rose bushes. The SUBJ
stance used is very poisonous and
should be kept in some place where no
mistake can be made with it by any
member of the family.

SUICIDE AND THE SEXES.
More Frequent. with Men-Wiu In
crease with Women. H.

and other marked signs of degenera-
ton. But it has been observed that as
woman approaches man in her mode Of
life she also becomes more familiar
with those abnormal conditions which
haye previously been peculiar to men.
The comparative Immunity of woman
from self-destruction in the past has
depended greatly upon the relatively
less harassing part she has taken in the
struggle for life. To-day it is different.
Now woman occupies the fields of art,
literature, finance. and even politics,
and, as she goes deeper into these vo-
cations, she must expect to suffer the
consequences: Already it is noticeable
that feminine suicide is not now entire
~ due to the sentimental causes of dis
appointed love, desertion and jealousy,
but to those trials OLA more material
order, such as have led men to the act
of self-destruction ~
Imitation far exceeds any other OF
what are called trivial causes" of sui
eide, and asserts itself more in woman
than in man. It is much more COM
mon than is supposed. When self-de-
struction becomes epidemic, as it some
times does, it's prevalence very largely
depends upon imitation. It is said that
Hood over ''The One More Unfortunate"
brought many: sentimental person to
a watery grave in the Thames. And
in our own day the vivid representation
of suicide upon the stage under condi-
tons appealing forcibly to the imagina-
ton has been known to be followed by
the self-imposed death of persons whose
conditions resembled closely those of
the suicide in the drama.
Attempts have been made to prove
that climate has an effect upon the rate
of suicide, but these attempts have
never done more than show that the
temperate regions have the highest ra-
ito. This, of course, is not due to the
climate, but to the more. complicated
civilization, the greater physical and
mental wear and the more extensive
interference with natural laws met
with in the temperate regions. While
it is true that climate exerts but little
influence over the rate of suicide, the
seasons. on the contrary, do strongly
affect it.. The popular belief is that
suicide is more frequent during the
months Of winter and spring. This,
however, is incorrect. Cold, wet, damp
weather does not, as so many people
suppose. promote dependency and sui
eide. Strange as it may seem, at that
period of the year when the sufferings
of the poor and the sick"are least, when
employment is more readily obtained,
when the pleasure of living should be
at it's highest, suicideis most frequent.
May, June and July, the months of song
and sunshine in all countries, give the
greatest number of self-murders. For
this there is no satisfactory explana-
ton, unless we accept that of the med
ical fraternity. which is that during
the period of early summer the organ
ism is working at a higher tension,
every function of mind and body in
more active than at any other period
of the year, and consequently there is
greater liability to sudden physical and
mental collapse. - Popular Science

How to Kill Wire Worms.

It is much easier to drive wire worms
from corn than to destroy them in the
soil. If little salt is sprinkled on the
hill it will be washed down by the rains
and make the locality unpleasant for
the worm. Soaking the seed corn in
copperas has also. the same effect,
though we doubt whether the copperas
is strong enough poison to kill sthe
worm. 1t is Sometimes recommended
to soak seed corn in water in which
paris green has been dissolved. But
there is in all heavy soils enough iron
to neutralize paris green poison almost
as soon as it is applied.-American Gull

About Clean App Z. !.

It is not enough that butter be clean,
it must appear clean. The butter that
you take to your customers with an old
rag or a piece Of linen tied over it may.
be clean, but it will not be an easy
matter to convince them Of it. Better to.
buy parchment paper, which costs but
little, and use that. You will thus be
able to keep your trade. People are
particularly eager to get butter they
know to be clean, and are willing to pay.

b. & O. Improvement.

The work of Strengthening the track and
reducing the grade at Tabs Station on the
second division of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad was recently completed, and the
first train to use the new line was No. /, the
New York and St. Louis flyer. A heavy
grade and three bad curves have been elm
mated by this work. A mile east, at Meyers
Hole, similar improvement has also been
completed after months of work Several
reverse curves and nasty and dangerous
Myers Hole, at Tablers, the alignment of the
track is being materially changed, and, as in
the other two improvements. bad grades
and sharp, annoying curves are being re-
moved. This part of the work will be done
in sixty days and then aIseries of very dan
gerous places will have been entirely re
moved. This work III its entirety means the
hauling of several additional cars in each
freight train, besides reducing the danger
of derailments to almost nothing. The sec
ond division, running from Cumberland to
Brunswick, will soon be in frst-class con-
dition and more cheaply operated than
ever.
