Some Popular Songs.

A musical paper prints an article
t1acing the origin and history of
popular songs. Here is bit from the
article.
Marching Through Georgia was
written in Chicago in 1865, by Henry
G.. Work, printer, who often COM
posed the words of q song at the case
as he set up the type, and then, if he
had access to the music type, would
also compose and set up the music.
Marching Through Georgia was COM
posed in this way, without ever being
written out in manuscript. Henry
Work also wrote Father, Dear Father,
Come Home, and My Grandfather's
Clock
"sOld Folks at Home was written
by Stephen G. Foster, but E. P.
Christy, the minstrel, paid for having
his name put forth as author and COM
poser on the first edition. Foster
wrote also MY Old Kentucky Home,
and the words and music of nearly
three hundred other songs, many of
them composed on pieces of brown
wrapping paper in the back room of
little grocery store in New York.
''Dr. Thomas Dunn English wrote
Ben Bolt in 1912, at the request of
N. P. Willis, who wanted sea song
for the New York Mirror.
g Home, Sweet Home was also the
work of an American, in spite of q
prevailing idea among Englishmen to
the contrary. The author was John
Howard Payne, an American exile in
Europe; and the song was written for
Charles Kemble, then manager of
Covent Garden Theatre in London. It
was an instant success, and brought
the author fame, but little money.
g Listen to the Mocking-Bird' was
written by Septimus Winner for Dick
Milburn, a colored man who used to
wander about Philadelphia .whistling
like a hooking bird. The song paid
its publishers over 500, 0O0."

How Ducks Ely.

Two astronomers were observing
clouds in the observatory out in the
State of Washington. A flock of ducks
came in sight. The astronomers de-
cided that they would measure the
flight of the ducks, and find out how
many miles they could fly an hour,
and how high up they were. They
adjusted their instruments and took
the measurements. The ducks were
958 feet in the air, and flying at the
rate of 1873 miles an almost as
fast as an express train You see that
a duck who uses his wings can fly very
fast. It is very doubtful whether the
ducks in your poultry yard could keep
up in the air to fly one mile, because
they do not use their wings often. Ii
they are frightened, they run at first,
as If they had no wings. If they are
chased, they run first, then they fly,

Training the Calf.

The young calves should not be turn
ed out before the middle of June.
When ready to turn them out, have a
strong head halter for each one, and
lead them out to and from the pasture.
They will soon learn to follow and be-
come very docile with such training.
In selling Jerseys. we always say that
the COW can be led, and it adds several
dollars to her value. Near the city,
where family cows are in demand, at
good prices, a cow that can be led out
and tethered ON the lawn is worth a
great deal more than one that can not
be thus managed. With bulls, especial
ly Jersey bulls, put ring into his nose,
when four months Old, and lead him
with stout hickory staff. The bull
can be early taught to lead, and he
should be gradually made to cut the
feed and pump the water for the stock.
A bull so managed is safer and makes
a better breeder.-The American.

The Care of Lamps.

All lamps should be thoroughly

the reservoirs and burners must be-
boiled in soda and water, dried before
the fire, and then carefully brushed to
free them from dirt. The cloths used
for the daily busting and trimming or
the lamps should be frequently renew
ed, and to insure good and steady
flame the wicks should never be cut.

the charred part Is removed. When
the lamps are not in use the wick
should be kept turned down, as the OH
is liable to ooZe up between the collar
and the burner. making the lamps
greasy and causing an offensive smell
II lamps are altogether put aside, the
oil should be emptied out and the wick
removed. A pinch Of salt or camphor
dropped into the container OF lamp
will cause it to burn very brightly.
