Pertinent Question.

It was the first year that Farmer
Andrews had taken boarders, and
though he 6onscientiously tried to serve
them. be found the task almost beyond
his powers. They We're fastidious and
even "fussy." They seemed deter
mined TO be more than comfortable.
and had no hesitation in complaining
when they were not so. But evidently
the Andrews farm did not altogether
diSplease them, for they not only fin
ishcd the summer, but stayed on into
tha fall.
Then their crying grievance became
not the thickness of cream or the salt
ness Of butter, but the difficulty Of
keeping every corner Of the old-fash-
ioned rooms as warm as a tropical
summer.
One day Farmer Andrews was called
in from the woodpile, where he was
vainly trying TO do fOrenoOn'S work.
This was the third time he had relin-
Quished aX and patience together.
"Mr. Andrews" said his boarder.
somewhat fractiouSly, something must
really be done about the temperature
Of my chamber. This fireplace is not
sufficient for so large Il room.'
The farmer stroked his griZzled
beard, and tried to speak screnely.
Put We up stove, ma'am.' said he.
But | don't want q stove. l want
this open fire, just as l have it now,
only l expect it to heat the room. Just
look at the thermometer. 1t has been
hanging over here by the window, and
l can't get it above 6S.'
She swept forward. with the tell
tale glass in her hand. and at that mo-
mcnt Farmer Andrews felt his patience
snap and fly.
Over by the windcr." he repeated,
almost weeping with the veXation Of
one who has been unjustly used. "Over
by the winder. Why under heavens
don't We set it here in warm place"

force for the invasion of Cuba. which
illustrates the punctilIc of the regulars
in this regard.
At 4 certain frontier post at which

ing thereby the necessity Of harness
ing up the team or ones undergoing
extremely heavy lugging-lugging
which is good for no man, in that it
stifens his joints and bends him over

Have you any old wagon wheels
that are still capable of doing good
service? Well, then you possess the
chief requisites for this cart, the body
of which can often be made of q box
obtained at the grocery or drygoods
store; and in such case all that re-
quires being done is to prepare prop
er axle for the box to rest on, first
constructing the frame, however, and
inserting into the handles OF it pieces
of very heavy wire (that which is
twisted is preferable) vertically for
the purpose of keeping the whole up
right when no one has hold of it.
This mode of constructive renders the
cost quite small, but not one iota does
it detract from the availability of the
cart Nicely painting the cart adds
to its attractiveness, and also makes
it more durable; and ii it is only
properly housed and looked after, as
it always should be, it will endure
much service and last for lifetlme.-

Renewing Raspberry Patches.

A raspberry patch, of the blacl-cap
varieties. needs to be renewed every
four or five years, as the red rust comes
in and will iniure so many of the plants
that the plantation will cease to pay.
The black-cap raspberry will not last
so long as this if it has been grown
from suckers. Those grown from the
tip ends of this years shoots will keep
free from disease longest. But after
four or five years it is too much labor
to keep the plantation free from weeds,
and new plantation, after the first
year, will give more fruit, with less
cost Of labor in caring for it,

The Farm Garden.

The farmer who neglects the gar
den and fails to grow an ample supply
Of vegetables for the use of his family
falls short of his plain duty. A diet
OF which meat is the principal part is
not wholesome, and those who dwell
in cities and towns know this and eat
largely of vegetable foods while too
many farmers families live the year
through on pork, beef, bread and po-
tatoes. The farmer can consume more
pork and other meat than almost any
other man, because he works hard in
the open air and can digest heavier
food than the man who is shut in the
house most of the time. Of all men
the farmer should be the last to suffer
from rheumatism, dyspepsia and other
diseases that arise from the blood. A
diet composed largely of vegetables
insures immunity from all such dis
eases yet they are very prevalent in
the families OF the farms of this coun-
try.
There is hardly single one of the
vegetables that is not medicine as well
as food. In the spring comes aspara-
gus first of all, which is a sovereign
remedy for kidney complaints, all OF
which arise from the presence Of
particular acid in the blood. Soon
after come the various greens that
grow abundantly in country places,
and later the berries and fruits which
purify the blood and invigorate the
system at time in the year when the
hot weather enervates and makes
languid those who labor out of door.
Beets, onions, green peas, string beans,
celery, tomatoes all possess important
medicinal virtues and all come at a
time in the year when we need cool
ing and blood purifying diet. During
cold weather We can consume quantl-
ties of fat meat with benefit, because
fats used as food produce heat and
help us to withstand cold, but with
the Temperature as high as it gets in
this country during the summer, We
really need but little meat, and vege-
tables are all that we need to supply
US with strength to perform the heaviest
tasks. If the meats consumed in sum-
mer were mostly mutton or poultry,
with eggs, we would be better off than
we are as consumers of so much fat
pork, but none of these take the place
of an unlimited supply of fresh vege-
tables and fruits such as any farmer in
the land may produce at the cost OF a
small amount of labor devoted to their
cultivation. Farm News.

Preventive For BIoat in Cattle.

If the farmers would haul load of
dry hay or straw into the clover pas
ture there would be no danger of los
ing cows with the bloat. If the COW
is already badly bloGted let her get
where she can eat the hay or straw,
and it will cure the worst case.
While this knowledge was gained
by accident it has nevertheless been
tried since with the best of success
by my brother. He never turns the
cattle into clover pasture without
FIST hauling a load of dry hay or
straw where the cattle have free ac-
cess to it, and has never lost a COW
with the bloat since using this precau-
tom ". c. Lane, in Agricul-

Foul urood and Its Treatment.

In Cowan's guide for the English
beekeeper he suggests as treatment
for foul brood the thorough disinfec-
ton of hives and utensils. When a
diseased hive IS to be treated and not
destroyed he recommends that the
hive be washed out with phenol-
pnenol two teaspoonfuls, water one
quarter gallon-and the diseased
brood francs sprayed with weak
so}utioa--onc-Lalf teaspoonful to one
gallon Of water. From other frames

weyler's Edict Against Tobacco Expor-
tation To He Abrogated.

weyler's Edict Against Tobacco Expor-
tation To He Abrogsted.
Advices from Havana state that
there is great rejoicing in that city
among the tobacco tradesmen and
business men generally over the in
formation which comes from head
quarters that the port Of Havana will
be opened to expectation.
The edict of Weyler issued May IA,
1896, will be revoked. Blanco has
already written the order for the port
to be opened, and it will be promulga.
ted at the proper hour. his news
comes through strictly private source,
but the positive statement that the
port will open as mentioned is made
by an officer close to Blanco, and there
can be no doubt as to its truth.
Nothing has happened during the
struggle on the island that has offered
such hope and JOY to the people Of
Havana. When Weyler closed the
port on expectation Of tobacco there
was cloud Of despair over the COM
nercial interests there. Business was
paralyzed. Rich men were made
poor, and many Of the wealthiest to-
bacco merchants gave up in despair
and left Havana, thinking the end had
surely come and that the business Of
Cuba had been doomed for years.
Nothing caused such widespread in
dignation in the United States in the
whole career of Weyler as did this
edict shutting off the tobacco supply
to that country entirely and endanger-
ing the investments of millions Of dol
lars which had been made in cigar
manufacturing enterprises in the
states.
