Secretary Wilson believes the ma

Secretary Wilson believes the market
abroad for American corn can be greatly
widened. He says it is surprising how
little Europeans know about this great
staple and how they insist on considering
it suitable only for stock feed. They
know nothing about the dozen and one
toothsome dishes which can be prepared
from it by an American cook. and so long
as they are left alone they will never
learn. SECRETARY Wilson hopes to edu-
cate them. He has requested Congress
to allow him sufficient appropriation to
make an extensive exhibit OF corn and its
products at the great Paris Exposition,
whereIall Europe will assemble, and to
there demonstrate in a thoroughly prac-
teal way, even down TO the baking of
mullins, the value Of American corn as an
article of table diet. Mr. Wilson says
that mistake has been made in the past
in attempting to induce the poorest
classes. who live on only one article of
diet, to substitute corn meal for wheat or
rye -four. They are unable to have more
than one staple article on their tables,
and corn of itself does not possess enough
muscle making constituents to displace
flour. He looks for its introduction
rather among class able to afford more
than single diet, who will appreciate its
sweetness and wholesomeness and low
cost.

Fruit Trees Bearing Every Year.

The method employed in some import
ant fruit-growing districts to secure crop
of fruit, such as peaches, apples, plums,
pears, etc., with uniformity every year
providing the flowers are not rendered
sterile by freezing) is to Systematically
thin out the young fruit after danger from
frost in the spring, and before the fruit
gets large enough to become tax on the
tree. Fruit is seldom produced on the
same spur every year; therefore. in thin
ming, they remove all of the fruits from
one spur without injuring it, so it may
produce fruit buds for the next year
allowing the next spur to bear-of course
discriminating between promising and
poor fruit. Various contrivances have
been invented for this work, but they
have proved impracticable. for they do
not discriminate between the good and
poor fruit. and, besides, often injure or
break off spurs. So thinning has to be
done by hand, and, aside from the great
advantage of insuring a crop for the fol-
lowing year, it pays the same season, on
account of far larger proportion of the
fruit being of superior quality and of
higher market value.

Lice and Chicks.

The chief difficulty in the way of hatch
ing chicks in warm weather is lice, Keep
lice away and the chicks will pay, even as
late as June. 1t does not cost over five
cents pound for food to raise chick to
six months of age. AT two months of age
they can be sold readily, and also at any
age over two months they bring fair
prices. Chicks seldom sell for less than
IS cents a pound, even when prices are
very low; but supposing only ten cents a
pound is received. they will even then
return a large profit. They sell best
when asparagus comes in, small sizes be-
ing preferred, the prices depending upon
the locality of the market. April in the
East corresponds with May in Chicago.
From February to June il the best time
for selling. There is always a demand.
Hatch your chicks in incubators in winter
and pack your eggs in dry salt during
summer, turning them twice a week. SO
as to get the most profit at all seasons.

About Burns.

4 burn may result from excessive heat
applieo in any way,-hot air or hot water,
steam, flame or electricity,-or even from
contact with hot water or steam is usually
called a scald, bu, is practically the same
in result as burn.
Surgeons speak of different degrees
of burn, according to the amount OF
tissue destroyed by it. Thus. burn OF
the first degree is one that simply reddens
and irritates the skin; a burn of the
second degree is one that causes actual
il hammation OF the skin with the formation
of blisters while burn OF the third
degree destroys the skin and more or less
OF the flesh beneath it, or even chars and
kills all the tissues, including the bone
itself
The effects of burn depend partly
upon its oegree, but not entirely, for a
burn even of the first degree may cause
death, if it involves a very large portion
of the body. This il does by interfering
with the necessary excretion OF waste
matter which is constantly taking place
through the skin.
A curious effect of serious burn in
any part OF the body is liberation of the
bowels following very intense congestion
of the entire digestive canal. The bron-
chial tubes and the lungs are sometimes
injured by the inhalation of steam or very
hot air, but even apart from such an acct
pent, a person who has been burned
about the chest or back is very liable TO
have an attack of bronchitis or pneumonia
in consequence.
The first thing to be done in the case
of burn of any degree is to stop the
pain. This should be done, not only
from the natural impulse to relieve suffer.
ing. but because the shock resulting from
the injury may be so greatly increased by
the agony as to cause the death of the
patient, even when the burns in them
selves would not do so.
Covering the part with any bland sub
stance, such as olive oil, vaseline, sweet
butter or -four paste, to keep off the air,
will often afford greater relief, and IN
burns of the first degree nothing more
may be needed. Carron oil, the name
given mixture of equal quantities OF lin
seed oil and lime water, was formerly,
and is still in many workshops, the
favorite application for burn. Better
still is bicarbonate of soda Cooking Soda
or calcined magnesia made into an ONT
ment with vaseline or lard, or busted
thickly over the skin.
Another application which is often ex-
ceedingly grateful is a solution of nitrate
of potash (nitre). Hunters often make
paste of gunpowder for this purpose.
One or other of these applications will
usually suffice in mild cases, and in severe
burns will help to reduce the pain for the
time till the doctor comes.-Koath'S
Companion.

SkOwhegan Grange.

The meeting, Wednesday evening,
April 8, was one of the largest in the
history of the grange. Visiting MEM
bers We're present from other oranges,
and all were greatly interested in the
work of the Skowhegan grange degree
team under the direction of Brother X.
A. Withee. This degree team has reach
ed degree of proficiency that wins the
approval of all who are fortunate enough
to witness its evolutions in the drill of
the different degrees.
At this meeting the third and fourth
degrees were conferred on class of
fourteen. The grange made net gain
of eleven members during the first quar-
ter of the year, and now numbers 29S.
Four applications were received and we
sh all soon reach the 300 mark in mem
bership.
Resolutions were presented on the
deaths of Horace Eaton, NJ. B. Thomp-
son and Mrs. Kidder by the committees.
The grange feels deeply the loss of these
members and especially that of brother
Eaton, who was charter member and
through all these long years has worked
faithfully and well in every way possible
for the advancement of the order, both
in his grange and in the county. Twice
he had held the Office of master of SHOW
hogan grange, and once master of the
Somerset Pomona besides other offices
in the order, each of which he filled
with honor to himself and with the
highest approval of all his associates.
After the degrees had been conferred,
Refreshments were served in the banquet
hall. The intellectual entertainment
consisted of songs by the choir, recita-
tions by Mrs. arrie French and c. E.
Smith, song by <. j. Kimball, which
was encored. remarks by Alonzo Smith,
Brother Savage of Arson grange, Brother
Russell of Scion grange and others,

Peas as an Orchard Crop.

One of the advantages of the pea crop
in the orchard is that the shade of the
broad pea leaves protects the soil from
being too m, CHI compacted by rains. IT
left until the crop ripens, the pea grain
takes from the soil phosphate and lime.
but this is Offset by the benefit to the soil
from the available nitrogen which the pea
roots are able to store in it by decompos-
ing air they come in contact with. The
pea crop comes off early enough to let the
orchard be pastured by hogs so as to de-
stroy fallen fruit. If only the common
field pea is sown, it is as good plan as
any to let the poorer parts of the field be
harvested by hogs. When the peas are
best Lodded and best filled cut them and
thresh for seed. But all the poorer
places let the hogs gather the whole crop.
On peas and fallen apples an especially
sweet and delicious pork is made. 1t is
much be tier than the corn-fed pork made
later in the season, when an exclusive
diet of corn is given.
