a Coollins-Clnss for Men.

The New York City Cooking school
has this year had an innovation in the
way of men pupils. Heretofore the
scholars have all been girls Or women,
but this season has found large class
made up of the other sex. The class
is recruited from a missionary train
ing-school, and is due to the kindly
interest OF a certain philanthropic
woman. The young men are prepar-
ing to go to China, and it is her idea
that they will be more practically
equipped for their work if they know
something about home cooking. No
class ever enrolled at the cooking
school has shown greater enthusiasm
in the work or made more rapid prog
ress. The young men have taken
hold with a zest, and bid fair to turn
out set of Gordon bleus in all but the
decoration. SIT isn't that they show
greater natural talent for cooking thar
women" said the head teacher, "but
they unquestionably take more inte..
est in the thing. Then, too, the fact
of their sheer physical superiority is
in their favor They can swing open
range doors and lift pots and kettles
without so much as long breath, per-
form other heavy labors which to wo.
men must be always more or less of n
strain" The instructor of this class
of young men is young woman, but,
thanks to her good sense and tact, the
class has not yet developed into what
it might so easily do-an opportunity
for Irritation second only to the Chi
pese Sunday-school. The young men
acknowledge that in learning to cook
they are laying up for themselves
every chance of matrimonial unhap-
piness. "When we get married@
they say, cit won't be the way moth
er used to cook but the way used
10 cook myself. -Harper's Bazaar.

Wherever an underdrain has been
laid, either a map of the ground
should be drawn, or such other men,
orandum as will enable the owner of
the land to always know where it may
be found. There is nothing more
provoking to the buyer of farm that
is only partly underdrained than his
inability to decide just where the old
drains are located and what size con-
duit they have. OF course, the drain,
if in working order, will show within
two or three rods where tile or stone
may be found. But to reach it then
requires much needless digging,
which could all have been avoided if
the man who laid the drain had been
careful to make record of its location.

Enrrn and Garden Notes.

Badly-lighted stables are the cause
of eye troubles in animals, and badly.
ventilated ones are the cause of lung
and stomach troubles.
As colt or calf will not make q
good horse or COW without plenty to
eat and good care, neither will young
tree develop into good-bearing one
if it is neglected
Trees, vines and hedges should al
be trimmed up, the brush and rubbish
cleaned up and burned up during the
fine days of early spring, so that when
plowing-time comes you will be ready
to plow.
A common fault in setting straw
berry plants is in placing them so
close together that they grow up
slender, soon coming together and the
fruit is thus too much shaded to de-
velop large size, good color or fine
fayof.

Mineral NIanures For Clover.


The clover is very exhaustive, both
of potash and lime, and also to some
extent of phosphate. All of these
have to be supplied if the soil does
not contain them or the clover will
not "catch." In many localities lime
is deficient. 1t nearly always is on
sandy soils, and these have always
been most benefited by sowing land
plaster, which is made by crushing
gypsum, a natural sulphate of lime
rock. A mixture OF wood ashes with
finely ground land plaster makes a
"catch" of clover possible when it
could not be got without it. On land
that has no lime, large applications of
freshly slaked lime should be made.
1t is better to purchase lime before
it is slaked, as in shaking the lime
absorbs grea5 amount of water, and
enormously increases IN bulk. Lime
can proftably be used where it is
abundant in the soil, as is shown by
numerous limestone rocks. 1t is Il
common practice where limestone
abounds for farmers to make large
kilns in which to burn il. After sub
jecting the stones to great heat for
whole day, and sometimes longer, the
stones will become white, and if water
is thrown on them they will divide
into fine pieces, into powder if the
burning has been thorough enough.
Much carbonic acid gas is given in
shaking lime, and if lime is put in the
soil, this gas helps to pulverize it and
make all its plant food available. The
clover roots use up much lime. 1t is
because clover contains so much lime
that cut clover hay is such good feed
for hens in winter. Its lime makes
tie shell of the egg, while the nitro
genous part of clover furnishes the
albumen of which eggs are mostly
tituted.-American Cultivator.

Glorious Time For One Small Boy.

A notable journey has just been ac.
complished bya twelve-year-o boy
named Launcelot Lewis. son of well
known grazier of Kooringa, South
Australia. The lad desired to visit
an uncle residing at Warrnambool,
Victoria, and for that purpose, and
with his fathers sanction, left home on
January 10 last mounted on pony and
leading another carrying a pack sad
die. Striking in southeasterly direc-
lion, he made the seaboard in about a
weeks time, and, passing through
Mount Gambler and Beachport, crossed
the border, and shortly afterward
safely negotiated the Glenelg river by
swimming his ponies across. Skirting
the coast line, he shaped course for
Portland, and thence, by way of Port
Fairy, to Warrnambool, which he
reached, having traversed $40 miles,
in twenty-one days, an average of about
twenty eight miles daily. Despite the
long and wearisome journey, his ponies
were in excellent condition on their
arrival, while the appearance of the
young overlander was that of typi-
cal bushman, with the water bags slung
over the neck of the pack carrier and
the hobbies braced on to his own
mount. .-Melbourn Age.

Clergyman's Experiment.

A laudable attempt on the part of q
Noting Hill clergyman to practically
Illustrate to the working class portion
of his flock the combined benefits Of
religion and tankard of beer has, we
regret to hear, proved unsuccessful.
The Rev. Prebendary Denison started,
for the social pleasure of his congrega-
tion, club, where the reverend gen.
tleman or his curate went, after dis
pensing theological pabulum in the
church, and served the members with
beer and other corporeal refreshments.
The idea was to keep them away from
public houses and to afford them hon.
est recreation with a reasonable amount
of tlpDle. By the rules no man could
be served with liquor more than three
times in the course of night. But the
clergyman was unaware of the degree
If not of original sin at least of bibulous
ingenuity among the rougher classes Of
Noting Hill. They evaded the rule
by clubbing together their twopences
and treating each other, so that in the
course of the evening n member was
able to obtain half a dozen, or even
more, drinks, instead of three. The re-
suit was sometimes unpleasant, and
the Prebendary has therefore reluct.
antly determined to give up the expert
ment.-London Telegraph.

the new introductions Of recent years.
The worst agricultural weeds to-day,
he contends, are old and well-known
enemies-the horsenettle (Solanum
Carolinense), the English lily (Convol-
vulus arvensis), the Canada thistle
(Onicus arvensis) and the yellow cress
(Nasturtium Sylvestre). These are
pernicious because every broken piece
of root makes q new plant, and the
first breaking up of the hoe or culti-
vator may add to, rather than decrease,
the number of these vegetable enc
mics. One has to keep hoeing the
livelong season to prevent these little
pieces from making leaves before they
will die natural death. OF the new.
comers, if one is smart enough to
keep the Notwithstanding implements
going before the seeds mature, they
are easily destroyed. The axiom in
botanical science that plants cannot
live without one season of healthy
leaves, is useful to those who have to
battle for weed destruction. New

"YOurs TruIv."

The habits of people in signing let
tiers are receiving some attention, and
Interesting conclusions are drawn from
study of the different ways writers
subscribe themselves. The curt
yours" and yours truly" are found
not only in business letters, but in per-
sonal notes as well, for there are plenty
of correspondents who don't believe in
sush, and who think that Yours truly
or sincerely" means about all they
wish to convey. Opposed to these SEN
sible and essentially practical persons
is that class of writer's made up usual
ly Of young and enthusiastic individ-
uals, as n rule of the gentle sex, who
throw words about as carelessly on pa
per as they do in conversation. The
use of the word love by such people
is distressing sign of emotional weak
pess, or carelessness, or of insincerity,
and possibly arises from the same i'm
pulse that prompts women to kiss each
other ndiscriminately. One Boston
girl, who Is quoted by the Journal, has
taken her own stand in the matter, and
at the risk Of being considered "cold"
and thoroughly Boston" she sticks to
it. In her childhood she was taught to
sign "affectionately yours" to her far
away greataunts and second cousins,
some of whom she had never seen, but
all of whom she tried to like, because
of the claims of kindred, and the word
"affectionately" came to mean to her
nothing at all except polite and neces-
sary fiction. So she signs affection.

New weeds are of continual occur
renee; that is to say, immigrants from
other localities, or parts of the world,
are continually appearing in the cult
vator's domain that the cultivator does
not desire to grow there. This is the
definition of weed. In recent years
government officials, and others in
national and State publications, have
been giving particular attention to
these first appearances of unwelcome
plants; and the lists are something re-
markable. 1t would appear that the
condition of unrest is as prevalent
among plants as among animated be-
ings. A prominent horticultural serial
asserts, however, that scarcely one of
the many introductions of the last de-
cade can be termed pernicious. The
writer contends that the buttercups
and daisies now permitted to grow by
the millions in our fields and pastures
without special remark, are more per-
nicious to the agricultural interests

How u Mountain Was Named.

There are two mountains in New
Hampshire bearing the name Kear-
sarge. One OF these is in Warner, in
Merrimac County; the other near North
Conway. There is fanciful tradition
that the Warner mountain got its name
from hunter, Hezekiah Sargent, who
is said to have been the first man to
discover it, Sweetser doubts the ex-
istence of any such hunter, and
traced the name back to 1925, aperiod
preceding the alleged appearance of
Mr.. Sargent on the scene. G.. Fox,
Assistant Secretary Of the Nary dur.
ing the Civil War, and the best posi-
BILE authority on the subject, wrote
years ago: "When we selected the
name for the KearsarSe, sloop- of-war,
in which the gallant Winslow sunk the
Alabama, we had no thought whatever
