There is in all clovers more or less
of principle that tends to cause slob-
bering in horses. 1t is now believed
that this principle is more largely
found ia the seet.s than in other parts
of the plants. II is not probable that
there will be any difficulty in using the
hay if the crimson clover is cut before
the seed is fully formed. Since Grim

Thi. I. Worth Considering.

Experiments recently made at the
Michigan Experimental station show
that about four times as much feed is
obtained from a meadow allowed TO
mature hay as from field pastured. In
soiling, the difference would probably
not be so great, owing to the fact that
tie grass, or peas, or alfalfa, or what
ever is grown for the purpose, is cut
before 1t fully natures, but even then
from two to three times the number OF
animals can be supported by soiling as
ON pasture.-Prairie Farmer.

Useful Hints.

Warm water and CASTLE soap, with
thorough rinsing after they are taken
out OF the s0ds, is excellent for wash
ing white silk handkerchiefs.
Old brass may be cleaned to look new

a little borax put in water in which
scarlet napkins and red-bOrdered tow

from fading.
In sweetening acid fruit a little soda
put in first will lessen the amount Of
sugar required ard will not injure the
favor Of the fruit unless too much is
used. Half a teaspoonful to quart Of
fruit is usually about right.
To brighten furniture and remove
spots take two tab.espOonfuls Of sweet
oil, one tablespoonful Of vinegar, halfa
tablespoonful Of turpentine. Use with
bit Of flannel.
Boiled potatoes ought to be laid out
on a plate, and are then as good for fry
ing or mashing as if they were freshly
cooked. IL LETT heaped up they will
often spoil in one night.
A few forms for use in hanging up
clothes may be purchased at any hard
ware store for five or ten cents, and will
keep a garment presentable a great deal
longer than when it is hung upon a
nail or hook.
Javelle water, used to remove tea and
coffee, grass and fruit stains from linen,
is made thus: Mix well in an earthen
vessel one pound Of sal sods, five cents
worth of chloride Of lime and two
quarts Of soft water.
Carpets may be frightened by dust
ing with damp flannel mop.
Never boil chocolate in your coffee
pot, as it would be likely to impart to
the coffee an unpleasant flavor.
Try little oil on the hinges to stop
a doors creaking.
Soiled wall paper may be frightened
by rubbing with pieces of light bread.
a single trial Of the little individual
omelet pans will convince that small
omelets separately cooked are far light
er and more delicious than large Oucs
in slices.
Kerosene or burning fluid is excel
lent for cleaning windows MOisten a
wooden cloth with it, rub the glass
clean, then polish with fresh piece Of
flannel. This is an easy and effeetual
method of cleaning windows ali the
year round, but it is especially recon-
mended in frosty weather.
Fresh ink stains ON carpets or table
cloths can be removed by repeated APP
plieations of dry salt. Carpets are
freshened and eolors frightened if
wiped with clean cloths wrung from
salt water. Coarse salt spriukled oc-
easionally around the edge Of carpets
is a moth destroyer.

Give the caller who comes a long dis
tsnee to see you a cup Of good tea with
something to go with it, and you will
be long remembered as an example Of
hospitality.
a quart Of oysters contains, on the
average, about the same quantity of
nutritive substance as quart of milk
or pound of very lean beef.
The twelve days after Christmas are
supposed to indicate the weather for
the year. Each day in order shows the
weather for one month.
An excellent cement for leather is
made by dissolving small bits Of pure
gutta percha in chloroform- II should
be of the consistency of honey, and
kept in a bottle to prevent evaporation.
Small patches may be placed on boots
AMI shoes to give good satisfaction,
and if neatly done will not show at
all. 1t will remain permanent unless
held too close to fire.
To keep lemons fresh put them in
cold water and change the water every
day.
If the bath tub Is not in such bad
condition that it needs TO be re-enamel-
Ell, it can be cleaned by the use Of pow
dered whiting, mixed to paste with
water. This should be allowed to re-
main on for an hour or more, aud then
washed Off with plenty of hot water.
To re-enamel a bath tub, remove as
much Of the old paint as possible. then
sand paper it till it is quite smooth,
when it viii be ready for painting.
Use the proper bath enamel, and apply
it thinly Three coats will be needed
to make the result really satisfactory.
Lamp burners, to give good light,
should be cleaned once a month. To
clean them, take piece Of soda the
size of walnut for every q1art of soft
water that you use place the lamp
burner in the water, aud let il boil for
five minutes Then remove the burn
ers, dry thoroughly, replace, and then
the lamp will give as good a light as

tin makes a capital pan in which to do
the boiling.

The Cars Newest whim.

The Gar is & man Of moral courage,
saws the New York Sun. His peace
manifesto convinced few persons Of
that, but, to quote CyranO, he has done
better since. Popular fads are no res
pecters Of persons Even royalty can
not escape them; and the recent fad
for papering or decorating rooms in
black and white sketches appealed to
the Czar and Czarina. According to
st. Petersburg gossip the imperial coup
le had one of the palace rooms done
over in black and white, and were
nightly pleased with the result. Then
the Gar had a brilliant idea. He would
have den papered entirely with carl
catures of himself. He gave orders
that a collection Of all caricatures Of
his royal self that had appeared in for
eign Journals should be procured and
he is delighted with his scheme.
Few great men could stand such a
test and only a phenomenal sense Of
humor and sturdy self respect, liber-
ally favored with genial tolerance for
other mems views, could enable man
TO be happy in room papered with
caricatures of himself II is doubtful
whether another sovereign in Europe
would enjoy following the Cars ex-
ample; and imagination fails when
one tries to conceive Of the state Of
mind into which such a room would
plunge the Hohenzollern palmer. But
il that same Emperor William would
mortify his vanity to the extent Of or
dering a carieature room for himself,
what an inexhaustible fund he would
have to draw from, and what a spicy
character his decorations might assume.
He has supplied the earicaturists Of two
continents with bread ever since he ap-
peared on the public stage.
