ALL AROUND THE FARM.

1t should not be necessary to state
that feed imparts flavor to meats.
Good meat cannot be made from bad
feed.
Confne the pruning 'gooseberries
principally to thinning out main
branches and cutting out weak and
exhausted parts. ',,,v
Plants will starve in any soil, how.
ever fertile, unless water is present to
dissolve the food elements and pre-
pare them for the plants use.
We almost murder our lands by pas
turing them too closely. How many
pastures there are that are about as
smooth and as even as skating rink
floor.
The first business of every young
farmer should be to secure a spot
upon which he can'stand and proclaim
to the world that these acres more or
less broad are his.
As much care should be taken to
keep water away from a well-con-
structed road as is taken to keep it
out of the cellars of houses or from
leaking through the roof.
The present system of paying high
way taxes, figuratively designated as
working them out" is admittedly
bad and can be easily remedied, but
an attempt to make change in this
direction would undoubtedly meet
with Observation-Disclosures Plowman.

Lace from Leaf Pulp,

Women generally HAYES great weak
ness for laces. They will be glad to
know that caterpillars have taken to
lace making. A German officer, ac-
cording to an English paper, has in
vented a new kind of lace. He first
pounds together about so or 60 leaves
of a special tree on which live small
caterpillars peculiar to Bavaria. This
composition when reduced to pulp is
thinly spread on a slate, and on this
smooth surface design is drawn with
pencil dipped in olive oil, and then
the greedy caterpillars are placed on
either side of the slate to at once begin
their work of destruction by eating
away as quickly as possible the layer
of paste, without touching, however,
the traceries of the oily pencil. The
result is what we should call stencil
design, but whether sufficiently firm
to be utilized as dress trimming is not
stated in the report. The process is
at least most ingenious, and appears to
deserve more the name Of stencilling
or applique work than of lace. We
must wait for further details. IN. Z,

possible. Honey contains sugar in
two forms, cane and grape sugar.
Cane sugar is the most easily digested.
Glover honey contains more g cane
sugar than the fall honey, and should
be used for winter store. I always
have frames in the upper story filled
with clover honey for winter. These
frames are set away until I pack my
bees for winter. All preparations for
winter should be made by the last of
October. Bees should always be kept
perfectly dry. Ice should never be
found inside the hive. Bees should be
kept from rearing broods in the win

~ all the spring dwindling is caused
by too early brood rearing. At least
two old bees are lost for every young
bee reared during the winter. I pre-

too warm the bees become uneasy

WELCOME.

Come home! The land that sent you forth
From east and west, from south and north,
Looks wistfully beyond her gates.
Extends her arms and waits-and waits!
At duty's call she stilled her woe; @
She ST. lied, through tears, and babe you go
To face the death you would not shun. IT.
Brave hearts, return! Your task Is done.
Not as you journeyed come you back;
glory is about your track ,
OF deeds that vanquished tyranny
And set a tortured people free.
Deeds, sprung of manhood's finest grace.
That envious Time will not efface;
Deeds that proclaim nations worth,
And crown the land that gave them birth.
America but waits to greet
And bless you, kneeling at her feet,
Your standards fair in honor furled.
The proudest mother in the world!
Come home! The land that sent you forth
From east and vest, from south and north
Looks wstfully beyond her gates,
Extends her arms and waits!

on Yellowstone Park, written especially
for teachers; another on Alaska and Klon-

BUILDING A CISTERN.
Why Cheap Methods of Construction
Should in No Circumstances
BE Employed.

When making a cistern the same
rules as to doing the work in the best
possible manner apply as when build
ing house. If expenditure cannot be
afforded to make a large reservoir,
without cheapening the work, make
it small and perfect. There are, of
course, some methods of construction
cheaper than others, and the cheaper
as good as the more expensive, so far
as utility is concerned, the extra out
lay being for surface appearance.
There may be cases where they have
stood well made in this way, but it is
risky. Build up good brick walls, well
cemented, and use stone cap and
then you have certainty. When the
size for the cistern has been deter
mined upon, take a stick-a strip of
board-and bore two holes through
it as far apart as half the circumfer-
ence of the place to be dug, then
through these holes drive pins few
inches long, and use this as a sweep
for marking the circle upon the sur
face. Dig down, making the sides as

cistern is to be jug shaped, begin to
draw in when half the desired depth
has been reached. A fat stone should
be put in the bottom, if convenient to
do so, with a basin dug out of the CEN
ter; then the brick wall, commenced
at the margin of the basin. Do not use
soft bricks. Sooner or later they will
slack down from moisture absorbed
from the soil, and make the cement on
the water surface insecure. Use arch
brick, at least those that are made
from good clay and we'll baked. One
can readily tell by the looks Or testing
with a hammer whether fit for use in a
cistern or not. After laying the bricks
in good cement, the wall should be
coated with plaster, made as follows:

parts, and water, cement, one part

year, as nearly as possible, and if you
succeed you will find something that

you can. It will not pay to have one
