A Cheap Icehouse.

A contributor TO The Prairie Farmer
gives this plan of an icehouse which he
has used for six years with the best re-
suits: Take logs as long as you wish
your icehouse TO be in width flattening
them so that they will be one foot thick
lay them Oh smooth dry ground four
feet apart. On this foundation place a
floor of two inch plank. Then take com
mon by for studding, placing them
three feet apart Toe nail them to the
plank below and spike on to the plate
q by a above, Now line up on the in
side Of studding with common rough
lumber; put on a roof and leave the ga
BILE ends open for ventilation.
Your icehouse is now ready to fill
Place foot of dry sawdust on top of
the floor, leaving a foot of space for
the sawdust on all sides, and cut the
ice to fill the rest Of the space. Keep the
sawdust space filled level with the ice,
as you go up tramping it down solid
Place a foot of sawdust on top and
you have finished your job. When the
weather gets warm, the sawdust should
be occasionally tramped down. In short,
there are five principles in regard to
keeping ice successfully: First. good
drainage, second, good ventilation
third, good roof; fourth, foot space
of sawdust dry. thoroughly packed,
and, fifth, good ice to start with.

Imaginary Ailments.

Physicians very often meet with peo-
pie who are carrying around imaginary
ailments, and who really believe them
selves as badly afflicted as they assert.
Some curious cases have been noted. A
Ioung woman Of this city had been con-
fined to her bed many months with an
illness which wholly deprived her of the
use of her lower limbs. The doctor who
attended her failed to discover the nature
of her atfiiction which might ordinarily
have been attributable to several causes.
Examination, however, revealed moth.
ing calculated TO throw light on the
matter, and the doctor, after patient
and exhaustive analysis and attention,
came to the conclusion that the illness
was imaginary.
Although he discreetly kept his opin-
ion to himself, proof was eventually
forthcoming as to the accuracy Of his
view. Being lifted in the sheets out of
her bed one day, while the mattress was
rearranged, the young woman surprised
her attendants by suddenly jumping
from the couch on which she had
been placed, with IA loud expression of
alarm 1t was discovered that she had
been laid upon needle cushion mad.
vertently left on the sofa, and that the
sharp points of several needles had
pressed violently into her back The
contretemps revealed the fact that she
could stand easily. Scottish Nights.

WHAT IRRIGATION DID.
On the Grounds of the New Jersey Station
with Garden Crops.

On the Grounds of the New Jersey Station
With Garden Crops.
In bulletin from the New Jersey
station is rocounted tho results of q
series of experiments on various garden
crops. The irrigation was not begun I'M
til demanded by drought in the fall, and
was continued from Sept. II until the
crops were harvested, varying with diff
ferent crops from Oct. to 20. The wa
ter was distributed in channels between
the rows, from the city waterworks, and
applied by means of inch faucets and
hose. In the case of eggplants and to-
matoes the season was 80 far advanced
that no substantial results were noticed.
New growth was stimulated in the egg
plants, hut no increased fruitfulness
was obtained. A plat of eggplants that
was not irrigated had been mulched in
July and treated with bordeaux mix
ture. When compared with other unirri-
gated plants, some of which had been
sprayed with bordeaux mixture, while
others had received no treatment, the
mulched plat gave yield nearly double
that from the plat only sprayed with
bordeaux mixture, which in turn gave
twice as many sound fruits as where no
treatment was used. With tomatoes a
new growth was produced and the foil
age was freshened, but no gain in fruit
resulted. With these and with elephants
irrigation must be given in midsummer
instead of in late autumn.
The result of irrigating bush beans
was very satisfactory, the yield being
largely increased and the quality su-
perior. The period of fruitage with pep
pers was prolonged and the yield nearly
doubled. In addition, the fruit from
the watered plants was firm and plump
and of fine color and quality thus be-
ing Of greater market value.
The leaf development of turnips was
greatly increased by irrigation; but, al
though there was an increased growth
of roots, they were destroyed by the
club root which ragged with unusual
virulence in the moistened soil.
The soil of tho celery plat was not
the most favorable, but the yield of the
irrigated plat was more than doubled.
The market value of the crop produced
from the irrigated plat was eight times
that produced without the aid Of arti
fetal watering. The loss from outside
leaves and roots in preparing the plants
for market was 28 per cent in the case
of the irrigated plants against 40 per
cent In the nonirrigated plants

ing rack" suitable for carrying one to
three sheep or calves, according to size.
1t is easily and quickly made of any
kind of soft wood. His is of Eastwood, 2
feet wide, 4 feet long, feet high; cor
ner posts of hard wood, by 3; bottom
and top frame boards inches wide,
three-quarters of an inch thick, nailed
to posts. There are two floors or decks,
and the roof is composed of material
half an inch thick. Stats 215 inches
wide. A strip, 1 by 8 inches, feet
long, is nailed lengthwise in the center
flush with the inside of the bottom
boards to. strengthen the bottom floor
Both floors are set i'll loose, so they can
be removed if necessary.
The two floors are convenient for d.
viding poultry to prevent their crowd
ing or to divide turkeys from chickens
Notice that the gate is divided in two,
and two sets of hinges are used. So in
stead of having to open the whole gate
to take out poultry from the bottom
floor, only half need be opened. Two of
the side Stats run out to five inches on
each end for handles. Two men can
take the rack full of poultry and set it
on the scales to weigh it. The rack can
be used to advantage in various ways
to suit the owner.
The authority already quoted gives
also an illustrated description of a
swinging cattle crib as follows:
1t is triangular in shape and is hinged
at the point at the bottom just on the
edge of the feeding floor. When swung
forward into the feeding floor, as shown,
it is in most convenient position to
fill with hay or to place in it grain
ration. 1t is then tipped back into the
space before the animal and is entirely
out of the feeding floor, and in a most

The HOtbed.

There was time when the majority
of gardeners thought that they could
not heat hotbed without manure. The
heat arising from the fermenting of
horse manure seemed to them about the
only available supply for this purpose
Now, as Rural New Yorker tells, steam
pipes are used with excellent success and
it is generally understood that manure is
not an absolute necessity. Years ago it
was believed that stable maSure was the
only rational food for plants Even at
the present day there are many who
still believe that fertilizers will poison
the soil. Good farmers live and learn
Two things they learn about stable ma
nure are that there are some cases where
it does not pay to give money for it,
and that 1t always pays to add potash
and phosphoric acid to the manure pile
The plan of feeding the manure pile"
by using kainit and bone with the ma
nure is just as Legitimate as is feeding
the animal on certain foods because
they have high manurial value.

The Electric Furnace.

M. Moissan has an account of his lat
est researches with the electric furnace
in a recent issue of L Annales de Chimie
ct de Physique. He gives the prepare
ton and properties of titanium, molyb-
denum, uranium and the borides of iron
and of carbon, the preparation of man.
ganese and historical account of the
researches already made on the crystal
lized carbides Of the alkaline earths.
He also lays claim to the discovery of
crystallized carbide Of calcium, while
assigning to Mr.. Wilson the credit of
having introduced its manufacture in
the United States. With regard to tita-
mum, NJ. Moissan has found that with
a current Of so amperes and 80 volts
titanic acid is converted into crystal
Lied oxide of titanium. With 800 am
peres and 10 volts the bronze yellow
nitride is obtained, When 200 am
peres and 20 volts are used, the tenn
perature rises above the point of decom-
position of this substance, and the car
bide is formed, free from nitrogen, and,
if this is heated with an excess of titan
ic acid titanium containing only per
cent of carbon is obtained. These sue
cessive actions, says NJ Moissan, give a
decisive proof of the increase of temper
