WHITE HOUSE RECEPTION
First OfieiaI One of the Present Ad-
miaistratiOn-

Washington, Jan. 19.-The first official
reception of the present administration
was given at the White House tonight
Aside from the fact that it was the first
interest in the event conferred in the new
method of distributing the invitations, SO
that only cerain portion OF those en-
titled to the hospitality of the executive
mansion would be entertained in g single
evening. The plan, so far as could be
judged from appearances, was an entire
success. While two thousand invitations
had been distributed, and in spite or a
very rainy evening, every one who was
invited appeared. there was no crush in
any part of the house during the evening
and the whole affair was commented up
onon as one of the most pleasant and
least laborious of the big gatherings that
have occurred in the mansion.
The receiving party consisted of the
President and Mrs. Mckinley, the Vice
President and Mrs. Hobart and the mem
bers and ladies of the cabinet. All of
these were present except Secretary Al
or. who is still too i'll TO venture out and
Mrs. Bliss and Mrs. Long. each of whom
was represented DN NtT uduS-ltS " '4N-i
the house party entered from the upper
hall it was noted that Mrs. Mckinley was
leaning on the arm of the president re-
versing the usual rule by which the presi
dent escorts the wife of the vice presi-
dent and the latter the mistress of the
White House.
The receiving party stood in the blue
parlor. Colonel Bingham and Lieutenan
Gilmore presented the guests. The recep-
ton of the diplomatic corps came hrst.
Sir Julian Pauncefote. as he dean OF the
corps. led the way, but did not. as is Gus
tomary. remain to present his coilea-
cues TO the president. The whole party
from the British embassy continued
to the east room. and left the White
House almost Immediately. PracticaAy
all the diplomatic corps were present IN
cluding the Spanish minister. Contrary
to expectations, there We're number o.
guests admitted with the receiving party
back Of he line most of them beng
guests of the cabinet families and mem
hers of the diplomatic corps.

ON PRESERVING APPLES.

At the November meeting of the Mis-
souri, Valley Horticultural society, Sec
rotary Goodman said ne could keep from
5000 to 1000 bushels of apples in his Gel
lar He first sprinkled the N with a So
luton of copperas, the n piled the apples
as heigh as possible in the bins. He did
not want too much ventilation, as in his
experience the apples exposed to the air
rotted worse than in the middle. Apples
left in piles have gray coating fromed on
the outside, and if they once reach this
stage they are comparatively free from
rot. The coating is formed in from six
weeks to two months, and most of the
rotting is done during this period. The
cellar should be sprayed or sprinkled fire.
quently TO stop all fungous growth. He
also advocated building storage houses
over springs, as the flow of water will
keep the house cool, and also give suffi-
cient ventilation. Another method, where
ice is kept, is to have the apples stored
in cellar under the ice house, the floor
above being tight to prevent leakage.
This is approximately the method adopt
ed by one of the cold storage houses in
Kansas City, in which apples have been
kept for three years with remarkably
good results.

GROWING GREEN FOOD.

The amount of green food that can be
grown upon an acre of land and fed to
cattle from the first appearance of rye
or crimson clover in early spring until
late in the fall. is many times more than
that which can be obtained on the same
area used as pasture. While on the pas
ture the cattle are subjected to storms,
many insects, and during dry seasons
TO secure as much food as they desire.
AS green crops may be cut at any time
and several cuttings can be made in a
season, the flow of milk will be greater
than when the cows are on pasture. While
less labor is required in pasturing the
the cows, smaller proportion of land
can be used under the soiling or green
food system.

FEEDING THE COWS

Cheaps foods do not give the farmer
any advantage unless sucht foods can be
produced on the farm at small outlay
for labor. When foods are purchased,
however, the cheapest kinds are those
that give the most product. Ten quaats
of milk can be produced for almost the
same cost as five quarts under some con-
ditions, because the lobar required in car
ing for the animal is the same when only
a quart of milk is derived as for ten
quarts. Every additional quart gained is
almost clear profit, and for that reason
the object during all seasons of the year
should be to so feed the cows as to keep
them at the maximum of production,
never overlooking the fact that there is
always acost to meet, and which is re-
duced proportionately to the production.
It is cheaper to spend two dollars to
make ten than to spend one dollar to
make five.

The young dairy heifer ought to be as
well fed and cared for as the milk COW,
because her future usefulness depends
on her condition prior to her first preg-
nancy. She does not need food either for
milk production nor for fat. but ought
to be kept in strong, growing condition
by food that makes bone and muscular
tissues and gives vigor constitution. The
heifer should have a more active life
than the cow kept for milk but requires

MULCHING STRAWBERRIES.

Now is the time to apply fertilizers to
the strawberry beds, removing the mulch
for that purpose, and covering the plants
again after applying the fertilizer. There
will be some root growth, even in win
ter and the plants will begin to prepare
for work before any signs of growth may
be noticed. Mulching prevents warming
the soil to soon and also saves the plants
from being thrown out by a sudden thaw,
the object of mulching being to keep the
ground at an even temperature.

THE HEIFER GALE.

An English farmer claims OF have made
a discovery which is valuable if his claim
is well founded. AS is well knokn, it is
difficult to select the calf at birth for its
future usefulness as mixer, yet he as
serts that it can be done. He state that
on the inner side of the cheeks, near the
corner of themouth, may be observed the
palps, which have different irons accord
ing to whether the calf will be a good,
medium or Indifferent mixer. If the palps
are large, broad and fiat they indicate
that the calf, when matured, will give
a large quantity of milk. If hey are only
round the milking qualities will be only
ordinary. If pointed, the milk yield will
be small. The ''palp' is not defined, but
is probably portion Of the mouth rails
ed above the smooth surface that can be
felt or is plainly distinguished.

Notes Of the Labor World
EAST AND SOUTH.

The New England manufacturers init
mate that New England labor is far su-
perior in intelligence to that il the south
and comes too high. When it is remen-
bered, says the Houston CTex) Post, that
the large majority of New England Ia
borers anr now French Canadians and
foreigners of different nationalities and
that southern labor is almost pure Anne
rican, there will be considerable doubt
whether the degree of intelligence in the
eastern mills is even equal TO that in the
southern factories. Mr.. F. N. Stillwell,
of the Selma cotton mills, offers aftirma-
tive evidence that the southern opera
tives are as good and as well paid as any.
He declares that the laborers in mis- mills
receive good wages, many of the young
women earning more than the female
clerks in the stores and offices of Selma,
and that the operatives generally are
paid more than they earned as farmers
when cotton was selling at s cents.

A FARM BAROMETER.

One of the most serviceable and useful
articles about the farm is a good barome-
ter which will foreteu nearly all theh
changes in the weather. There is no rea-
son why weshould be without such a
useful instrument when we can procure a
frst-class one at a cost OF about 50 cents.
Many a. the so-caIled barometers are of
little use on account of the poor quality
of the chemicals used. II we buy the
chemicals ourselves we will be more apt
to get a better instrument. BY the fol-
lowing from a good chemist: One ounce
Of camphor, ons ounce Of saltpeter, one
ounceof ammonia salts and dissolve
them in i drains Of acohol. Shake the
mixture well and pour in long. slender
bottle, and cork up tightly. Be sure 10
have the bottle full. so there will be lit
tie or no air inside. Hang your barome-
ter on the north sideof building. or some
place not exposed 10 the sun. and the fol-
lowing will be your weather indications:
Absolute clearness OF the liquid means
fair weather. Threadlike objects at the
top Of the bottle indicate high wind If
the liquid becomeroily il is q sign OF
rain. Little stars in the liquid means a
hard storm. II downy masses form in
the bottom of the bottle il will be cold
| the more these masses rise to the top
the colder it Will become.-Farmers' Ad-
vocate.
