A Chinese SchooIboy q.

The Chinese school children have in
stilled into them at an early age habits of
hard, steady study. At the age OF five a
boy begins his schooling. At daylight he
is given task and after It's completed is
allowed an hour for breakfast. Again,
later, he has an hour for luncheon, but he
is at his study nearly twelve hours a
day, seven days in the week. All the time
that he is not saying his lessons he is
learning aloud at the top of mis- voice
He is taught rudimentary astronomy,
physics and natural history, but greater
stress is laid upon writing and his liter
any studies than upon any other branch.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS,

With good roads the farme: will have
a better choice of markets..
The more milch cow will assimilate
in excess of what is required for main
tenance the better.
Cleanliness is as essential as shelter
and food. Stock will not eat wet fod-
der to an advantage.
No matter how good a pedigree an
animal may have, individual merit and
good conditions are essential.
The principal advantage in using salt
as fertilizer is that it helps to make
plant food in the air available.
With quite number of farm prod
ucts, low prices are caused not so much
by overproduction as by poor quality.
With fattening hogs, allowing food to
remain within reach after the appetite
is satisfied Injuries the digestion and de-
creases thrift-Farmers' Union.

A Homemade Bag Holder.

We CLEAN the following idea from the
Farmers Advocates: Take an inch
board, three feet long by IA inches wide,
and slant it. Then take two Stats, three
inches wide and three feet long, and
rail them upright to the board about
five inches from the top, to serve as
feet. Drive a wire nail through each
corner of board, and turn them up a lit
tie to hook the bags on. Nail the board
down at the bottom, and one man can
fill and tie the bags as fast as two men
can clean the grain. g. &

Needs Careful Investigation.

@ Dealing in futures" is system that
should be carefully investigated by cor-
gress. Some maintain that it is an adj
vantage to farmers, while others as
sert that it depresses prices while prod
ucts are held by the producers, the rise
in prices going to class which simply
deposit certain sums as wagers on the
results. There is no doubt, however, as
long as the system exists there will con-
tinue to be an uncertainty in prices, and
that the farmer will be compelled to
suffer all the losses, but will not share
in the profits. Much of the business
done by the manipulators of wheat and
other grains is not based on the articles
at all, as it frequently happens that
more grain is sold than exists in the
whole country. Colman's Rural World.

each Of these ropes has hook attached.
Around the drum is wound H-inch
rope, but, of course, in the opposite di-
rection to the ropes C and B., so that
when the rope on the drum unwinds the
other two wind up. The rope on the
drum passes over pulley Il, Fig. l.,
then down the side of the wall to the
roller I, placed at suitable height for
winding while standing on the ground.
The pins, X, work loosely through the
roller I, and have knobs on each end to
prevent them from dropping out.
After you have everything in place,
drive your wagon under the roller,
place the ropes under each end of wag-
on-box, and begin winding the roller I,
Fig. 1, and see how easy it is for one ran
to remove heavy wagon-box, and that
without danger to either man or box.
We use cross-poles under the box
after it is up out of the way, that rest
on the mailing ties on each side of shed,
to prevent any danger of the box fall

infested by these pests unless they
come in contact with animals that are
infested. But one lousy animal run
ming with other stock will soon commu-
nicate the lice to all. When the insects
cnce get a start they multiply SO rapid
~ that in short time the animal is
fairly alive with them and is kept in
perfect torment. It is next to impossi-
bic to get a lousy animal into a thrifty
condition until the lice are gotten rid of.
+ Stock that have to lie out, exposed to
cold and storms, and are ill-fed are al
most certain to become infested; this is
50 much the case that it seems that
poor condition breeds lice.
AS with all other ills to which stock
is liable, prevention is much better than
cure. Feeding we'll, giving clean, COM
fcrtable quarters with proper groom
ng, so as to keep the skin clean, will
keep lice from getting start.
One of the best, if not the best, RIM
edies is staves-acre seeds, thoroughly
bruised, and vinegar. This lotion will
not only kill the lice, but destroy the
nests as well. The staves-acre seeds
brushed and made into an ointment
with lard is also a good remedy. twill
be good plan to repeat the applica ton
in ten days or two weeks, especially if
the animals are badly affected.
In mild cases common tobacco
stepped in water and sponged over the
skin will rid the animal of lice. Still
another remedy is to take one ounce of
tobacco, two ounces of ground white
hellebore, with about two pints and a
half of vinegar; boil all well together,
strain and then sponge the animals
with it. H..
Feeding sulphur is also good aid in
ridding animals Of lice. The obiection
to it is that if while it is in the system
the animal should get wet considerable
injury may result.
The quarters should be thoroughly
cleansed up and whitewashed. It will
help it carbolic acid is added to the
whitewash. Generally it will pay to
repeat the whitewash in week or ten
days.
When stock have been allowed to run
together, if a portion of them show that
they are infested with these pests it is
best to treat all of them.-St. Louis Re-
public.
