Kitchen Walls.

Now that womankind is growing
more scientific and taking firmer
grasp upon psychology, we find one or
it's primary laws-that of association
directing the renovation of the mod
ern kitchen. The old, semi-annually
whitened walls that soon succumbed
to the smoke of broiling and the va
pors of boiling are no longer tolerated.
Only an environment that suggests ab-
solute freshness and purity can be as
ISOLATED in the mind of the diner with
the food that his tickle appetite does
not always then find alluring. The
kichen completely ceiled in some
light. fresh looking, natural wood, or,
better still, tiled all oyer-walls, cell

Brief Hints.

Mating should be swept with soft
mating brush, piled with the grain or
the weave TO catch the flying dust
that makes matting-laid floor one OF
the most difficult to sweep clean, a
newspaper, wet and crushed and push
ed before the broom, is recommended.
Clean the inside of the teakettle once

and then look ut them; you will be
surprised at what you find; even II this

Eggs and Prices.


No matter how fresh the eggs may
be that you send to market, the re-
liable merchant, if you are unknown to
him, will candle" them! that Is, he
will test them by looking through the
eggs in dark place at strong light,
and should he find only one egg that Is
stale, your whole lot will be graded ac-
cordingly. Nothing is so affecteds by
suspicion as an egg. and the only way
to secure the highest prices is to dis
arm all suspicion by shipping no eggs
to market except such as are known by
you to be strictly fresh. Once let a
merchant discover that he can depend
on you, and you will have NO difficulty
in securing even more than the regular
price, for strictly fresh eggs are salable
at all times, and at special prices for
choice lots.-Poultry Keeper.

RepelIing Wire Worms :.

It is much easier to drive wire worms
from corn than to destroy them in the
soil. II little salt Is sprinkleld on the
hill 1t will be washed down by 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.

Cross Breeding Doesn't Pay.


The combination Of well-esta bliShed
breeds each grown for a distinct pur-
pose, is always a failure, as the prepo-
tency of each breed neutraIzes the 9TH
err, and thus produces a mongrel that is
quite as likely as not to reproduce the
least favorable rather than the most
favorable characteristics desired.
Breeding pure-bred animals to grades
is always good plan, for there is no
prepotency in the grade, that having
been destroyed in the first cross. But
even in this breeding 1T is necessary for
the best results to have the pure bred
made OF the same breed that was used
to make the grade on which 1T is to be
crossed If the grade is half-bred
Jersey or half-bred Holstein, for ex-
ample, the second cross ON it with a
pure-bred male of the same breed will
make high grade or three-quarters Of
a full blood, and often nearly as valu-
able for milk or butter production as If
1t were full-bred animal.

A New Insecticide.

sene extract Of pyrethrum: ~ gallons
kerosene soaked through 21a pounds
pyrethrum, resulting in n yellowish,
oily extract, which will not mix with
water, but which will form an emul-
sion with soap, similar to kerosene
emulsion. One pond Of soap dissolved
in one gallon of boiling water added
to one gallon Of the extract, well mix
ed or churned with force pump, made
a perfect emulsion, which, when dilut-

more effective than either, easier to

Level culture for Potatoes.

Almost all practical growers now
agree that the level culture Of potatoes
brings the largest crop. This Is es-
pecially true If the season Is dry, as OF
late years 1t almost always is. II the
ground Is cultivated often enough no
weeds can appear above the surface.
That will make it easy to keep the crop
free Of weeds without ever needing to
cultivate more than an inch below the
surface. This is the best way to subdue
the perennial weeds, quack grass and
Canada thistles, as we'll as the annual
weeds.

Grover Growing In the West.
Time was when Western farmers did
not care to do anything to improve the
fertility OF their soil, which they
thought was inexhaustible. But de-
creasing crops have turned their atten-
ton to better modes Of manurdng and
to increased growth OF clover. This Is
especially true where stock growing
and dairying have superseded the ex~
elusive growing DC the earlier setties

Growing o.ion sets for saIe.

Growing Union sets tOr r are
In every neighborhood good busi-
ness might be made If some one would
fit bed and grow onion sets for sale
to his neighbors. Comparatively few
farmers have the small onion bed that
is so convenient for the housewife to
go to when she needs something more
to supply the table properly with vege-
tables. Most farmers after few trials
find that the small onion bed costs more
labor to weed 1t than will buy the
onions it could grow. 1t Is not SO
where onion sets are planted. They
cost more than the seed to begin with,
but the labor of cultivation Is so much
lessened that they are much the cheap
est way to grow onions on a small
scale.

1t Is not alone because Of injury to
scythes, mowers and other implements
that the haymaker wants as smooth q
surface as he can get. 1t Is necessary
to have stones and other inequalities
removed IL he would be able to cut as
closely as he should. The new growth,
especially Of clover, starts quicker and
grows more vigorously IL cut close. Be-
sides, much Of the weight of both clO-
yer and grass Is lost IL either is cut
high. So there is loss by high cutting
