Origin Of Menu Cards.

1t is not generally known that the
originator of the bill of fare" was
Duke Henry Of Brunswick. who was
first observed in the intervals of ban
quet to scan carefully long strip of
paper by the side of his plate. When
the curious guests ventured to inquire
into the nature of his studies he ex-
planned that it was sort of pro-
gramme of the dishes he had COM
manded from the cook, to the intent
that if some delicacy which especially
appealed to him were marked for a
late stage in the repast, he might care
fully reserve his appetite for it. The
simplicity and beauty of the idea ap-
pealed instantly to the good dukes
convives and the menu card from that
moment became an institution.

conspiring with the French. 1t was
said, though denied by Tone himself,

charge of being implicated in the at

n August, 1795.
While in America Tone received let
ters from friends advising him to go
to France and supplicate the assist
ance of the government for the Irish.
J He arrived in France February l, 1896.
There he was welcomed by the French
and appointed to the rank of adjutant
general and chef de brigade in the
French army. December Is, 1896, he
sailed from Brest with l,l00 men, and,
arriving at Bantry bay, made four at

The last expedition, and the one that
cost Wolfe Tone his life, was attempted
in 1898. Wexford was then aIblaze, and
there had been several instructions
which were suppressed by the soldiery
A French expedition was organized
under Commodore Bompart in Sep
tember, 1898. 1t consisted of the Hoche
and eight frigates. Wolfe Tone was
on the flagship. The expedition was
met by an English squadron off Lough
Swilly, and after struggle the British
were victorious.
Tone was captured and taken to
Dublin, where he was tried by court
martial and sentenced to be hanged as
& traitor. The sentence of death did
not affect him, but the manner in
which it was to be executed did, and he
petitioned that he should not be made

MED the request, and so, on the day

Insecticide for Plants,

Cosmos, French scientific review
says that South American farmer has
recently made an accidental discovery
OF great value to gardeners and for
lists.
1t was to the effect that leaves of
the tomato plant will drive insects
away from other plants. He covered
tomato leaves over some yonng shrubs
he wished to protect from the sun and
from small insects, and was delighted
to find that the latter cleared out as
soon as they got the odor of the to-
mato leaves.
He then extended the same treat
ment to an entire row of young peach
trees, and his success was complete
To render the process more simple he
tried decoction of the fresh tomato
leaves as a spray on other trees and
shrubs and found that he had per-
fectly effective weapon which cost
practically nothing. He also found
that spray of the same kind would
keep flies off his horses.

skim Milk for Chickens.

With the purpose of studying the
effect of skim milk diet on young
growing chickens an experiment. was
conducted at the Indiana agricultural
experiment station in which two lots
of chickens were under observation.
There were ten chickens of two breeds
in each lot, ranging from four to six
weeks of age at the beginning of the
experiment. Each lot received the
same food, care and treatment, ex-
cepting one was fed all the skim milk
wanted, while the other was given
none. The grain fed consisted Of two
parts crushed corn, one part bral and
one part ground oats. They were
also fed cracked bone, cabbage and
lettuce. When the experiment began
the total weight of one lot of chickens
was only one-half an ounce more than
the other. The experiment lasted
from July IL to September 5.

Raising Seedlings.

The process of raising plants oi
various kinds from seeds extends over
the greater portion of the year, and
no time is more important than the
present in this respect. There are
many plants of which seeds can be
sown now with better prospects of
success than at any other, and amongs
them may be noted calceolarias, prim-
ulas, cyclamens and cinerarias, all of
them being great favorites with anna
teur growers. OF course, where pos
sible, the boxes, pots or pans of seeds
must be placed in the greenhouse, but
a fair proportion will germinate in q
warm window if they are care
fully looked after. Use light soil, and
water it well prior TO sowing the seeds,
which need not be covered with soil.
Place on the receptacle piece of glass
and over that brown paper or damp
moss, and, until the seeds vegetate, NO
further attention will be required be-
yond wiping the glass quite dry each
morning. AS soon as the tiny plants
can be seen the paper must be re-
moved, and the glass slightly tilted.
AS they attain size, pricking off and
eventually potting will be necessary,
and every effort should be made to
keep the plants constantly growing

Dairy Precautions.

Shade III pastures, either from trees
and sheds. is essential in midsum mer
to keep the cows from becoming few
erishly overheated to the detriment of
the quality of the milk. During
my dairy experience have encount-
cred great deal of tainted milk di-
reotly attributable to the overhea ting
of cows. Keep them as cool as pos
sible and remove all exciting factors,
such as driving them to and from the
pasture with dogs, etc.
When it comes to the care of milk,
hot weather has no terrors for dairy
man fully prepared and willing to in
telligently combat its deleterious ef-
fects. The hotter the weather the
more prolonged should be your appli-
cation of hot water in sterilizing milk
utensils. Placing the tin milk pans,
pals and cans in the sun after wash
ing was formerly thought to have no
more influence than simply to dry
them. Now it is known that follow
ing rigorous scalding thorough sun
bath of all dairy utensils destroys any
lurking bacteria that might quickly
propagate and ruin milk quality. Ill
smells about COW stable multiply
with amazing rapidity during the
heated term. With cows MIXED there
twice a day it means dangerous
menace to milk. If you cannot keep
the atmosphere of your stable as sweet
smelling as that of your pasture, milk
the COWS in the pasture every time.
Attend to the care of milk as soon
as it has been drawn from the COW.

convenience is dangerous; to dump q
hundred pounds or more of it freshly
MIXED into narrow can is pern1-
cious. Milk should always be aerated
and cooled sufficiently to keep it fresh
twelve hours before it is ever stored
in bulk. No better way can be de-
vised for tainting fresh milk quickly
and effectually than by plunging a
vessel of it into cold water. The re-
sulting faint is commonly spoken Of
as smothered milk. Ii you do not
possess ice you should wet down the
floor and walls of your dairy room
several times day with cold water.
This will materially aid in keeping the
atmosphere Of the apartment cool and
sweet even during the hottest days.
Good, firm butter can be produced
in July as well as in less heated
months if You keep the Thermometer
in your dairy room as close to sixty
degrees as possible. In this apart
ment secure free ventilation with q
low temperature, especially at night.
If there is cold running water on your
premises utilize it for the dairy's good
in hot weather. Pipe it to your milk
house. Churning should always be
done early in the day before the
warmth of the sun has made its in
fuence felt. By following this plan
you ought not to be troubled with
butter coming soft, even ifyou possess

These are the banderilleros. Each
one of them has two be-ribboned darts,
like little harpoons, in his hand, which
he must fix in the bulls neck to pain
him, to infuriate him, and to make
him exhibit the agility of men.
1t is a matter of no little skill and
danger; if successful, it almost crazes
the animal, giving him the maximum
of ferocity with the minimum OF
strength. It is also one of the "pret-
tiest" parts of the corrido de toros; for
the bull comes on with rush to these
most nimble and courageous banderil-
leros, who often must evade him by a
single inch. Each evasion and each
trick of daring has it's name, and is
applar ded or Kissed by the excited
thousands on the benches, according
to the audacity, GOODNESS and dexterity
of the men. or the reverse.
These lively fellows, who take ter
rible risks, will seat themselves on
chairs and let the bull come thunder
ing down on them. Then at the very
instant that he would strike them,
toss them, mangle them, they rise,
plant their harpoons into his neck,
and leap aside. The bull must be
content to toss the chair. Or they
will take a long pole, and leap over
the bulls back as he comes at them
Or they will kneel down on one knee,
with grace, and tickle the puzzled
beast upon his nose with a lace hand
kerchief and slip aside from him.
Their harpoons, which they jab into
his injured and insulted neck, should
make him wild.
But if he does not show sufficient
wildness, the people cry for ''Fire!'
And here it is too sickening and cow
ardly to proceed in detail Sufficient
it will be to say that there have been
invented banderillas with frework at
tachments, that they may burn after
they have been thrust into the bulls
neck!
Enough. The time has now arrived
for the great act of the matador, or
the espada, the most important man,
the high professional who has to kill
crazy bull, made monstrously wicked
by ill-treatment and thousand goad-
ings. The bull is weakene it is
true, but he is still SO DANCE lus that

and bull. Besides there must be cere.
mony and show. Out of these me-
cessities the numerous and well-de-
fined acts and scenes of a ll-fght
take their due progression.
The bull must first be exercised be-
fore the audience, that they may take
pleasure in his strength. The ami
NAL is noble, with pedigree as long
as that of many Don. He is slender,
with small headquarters and tremen-
dous neck and shoulders. Neverthe-
less, he is rather small than large.
His horns are straight and sharp; and
he is quick, tricky and vicious. The
ordinary bull-fghters, toreadores,
faunt their cloaks before his face and
escape with difficulty, often being
obliged to jump the fence around the
ring. But for the poor horses there is
no escape, and here is where the ill
ness of the stranger takes its sudden
rise.
The object of bringing in the horses,
early in the game (poor broken down
old creatures), is really four-fold. 1t
is first to exhibit the vigor of the bull,
when he lifts and tosses them with the
most abominable strength. Next, it
is to tire the bull a little, so that it
will not be impossible for single man
to face him, later on. Thirdly, it is
