Worlds Deficit in Grain.

A worlds deficit in grain for the
coming year is the forecast Of the Hun
garian minister of agriculture. He es-
Inmates that importing countries will
need 115,000,00o to 124,0o0,0 900 metric
centners, or, roughly speaking, $780,
100000 to 100000, 0cO bushels more than
their own output, and that exporting
countries will be able to send 1O1, O0O,-
600 to 1O9,0OO,0O0 metric centners, an
apporent deficit of $4,000, 900 to 15,O00,-
600, or say 100000 900 bushels. This re-
port, emanating each year at this time
from what is. known as the Vienna
grain congress, is made up from COM
parison of official and trade estimates
of the worlds production and require
ments. The figures put forth are by
no means final, nor Of any great value,
although interesting, as they seem to

THE RUSSIAN THISTLE.
Worst Pest American Farmers Have
Yet Been Called Upon to Keep
in Subsection.

Look out for the Russian thistle. It
Farm News. Last year the writer saw
good many specimens east of the
Mississippi river, some of them along
the railroads of Ohio. Last fall good
many thistles went to seed and the
winter winds blew them hither and
yon all across the country. This
spring there are good many places
where Russian thistles are springirg
up miles away from the place where
the seed ripened last fall. This is es-
pecially true of the prairie sections of
Illinois, and it is safe to predict that
the battle with this pest is on. Every
man must use his best efforts to de-
stroy every specimen on his land. if
he would have any peace handling his
crops of grain. We have been watch
ing specimens grow along one of the
great railroads, and it is surprising
how rapidly they shoot up and how
thickly the land has become seeded
with them in some places. If one of
these plants gets start, it soon throws
out side branches and the shade kills
any other plant near the thistle, and
if the thistles are thick enough every
other kind of vegetation disappears.
A single plant where it grows alone
will often cover a circular spot three
feet in diameter before the season is
over. It is the worst weed pest we
have ever been called upon to fight.
and it should be kept in subsection
from the first.

Tapestries of Norway.

The traditions of tapestry weaving
have descended from mother to daugh-
ter since the days of the Vikings in Nor
way. In all the mountain farmhouses
OF the present day in Norway weaving
Is still carried on as part of the regular
housework, and girls are employed to
do nothing else. In the early days it
was the work of the Vikings wives and
daughters to make large tapestries
telling the story of the conquests made
by their family heroes. These were
hung in the great hall of every home,
together with the war weapons of the
husband and the sons, and the tapes
tries are said to have been very beauti-
full. Only vegetable dyes were used,
and, while they lacked brilliancy, they
made up for it in durability. A castle
in Denmark contained few of these
rare specimens till few years ago,
when it was burned down. The weav-
ers of Norwegian tapestries usually
work out from memory any pattern de-
sired. The main body is of some geo.
metrical design, with a border of zig
gag lines or blocks. Certain character
istics of these rugs and tapestries re-
mind one of those made by the Navajo
IndianS-ChicagO News.

LAMBS FOR MUTTON.
Some thing About the Breeds and How
to Obtain the Most Satisfac-
tory Results.

Probably the latest sent to mar
ket are those obtained from cross OF
Merinq and Southdown. They are
about as plump and heavy for their
size as any bred, although they are
not the largest, writes E. P. Smith in
the American Cultivator. They are
generally desired by good butchers,
and very often they will command
fancy prices. Their Southdown line
age will be apparent in their black
faces and legs, and most butchers be-
lieve yet, and with good reason, that
the "Southdown is the finest mutton
sheep in the world"
But the Merino contributes many
noteworthy qualities. The lambs get
their fairness and tenderness from the
Merino, and this greatly helps the
lambs in the markets. Altogether the
cross produces about as satisfactory
results for the general breeder Of
lambs for mutton as any.
The lambs when two weeks old
should be taught to eat little dry
food, and this can best be given to
them with the hand. Sometimes a
| tempting dish can be made for the
lambs-a mixture of clean oats, corn
| and inseed in equal parts, ground up
finely and then sailed and sweetened
with little sugar. The taste of the
| latter tempts the lambs. The ewes
should also be fed freely and with good
nourishing food to keep up the flow of
milk, for it is advisable for the lambs
to have plenty of the mothers milk.
| In short time the lambs will take
their dry feed from box or pan, and
then feeding them will be greatly sim.
plitied. Ordinarily it is not necessary
to get them to take dry food, but where
it is desirable to force their growth
and make them lay on fat rapidly, this
method will be found very satisfac.
tory. The lambs that grow vigorous
ly from the first are the ones that pay
in the end, and it would not prove a
bad plan to adopt this method, even
though one has no idea of forcing the
lambs for an early market.

A New York Central Innovation.
George Fl. Daniels, of the New York Gen.
trail & Hudson River Railroad, has made
an announcement which is of rather start
ling nature, but it is one which ought to
please the patrons of that great system, and
particularly those who travel on mileage
books. The circular reads as follows:
1000 miles travel, are now on sale at all
stations on the New York Central divisions
and branches) at the rate of $40 and $40
respectively.
These tickets are good until used, and are
available for passage on the main line of the
New York Central, and all of its branches
and divisions. including the Harlem, Put
nam, Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg,
Carthage & Adirondack, Geneva & Lyons
and the Adirondack Utica to MontreaD d.
visions.
Mileage books will be issued in the name
of the head of family or firm, and will be
available for the use of any member of such
family or for any traveller for firm, pro-
vided the name of such member or traveller
is written in the book by the agent selling
it, in the place designated. They will be
honored for transportation by the conduct
ors of all trains, including limited trains, but
If the holder of such ticket desires to ride
beyond the run of conductor, or on night
train, or to a point on branch line, he
should present his mileage ticket to the
ticket agent, who will detach the proper
mileage and issue mileage exchange ticket,
on which baggage will be checked to any sta
ton on the New York Central or any of its
branch lines, thus avoiding the necessity of
being disturbed after retiring, or OF recheck-
ing baggage.-From the Pittsburgh Post,

CORN SHOCKING TOOL.

end make a hole through which you
can put strip of leather, whereby to
attach piece of rope to the stick.
The rope should be about four inches
shorter than the Irvine. A quarter
inch rope is the best size. At the out
err end of the rope fasten a ring just
big enough to slip over the stick cas-
lily. In use proceed as follows: Take
the handle and ring in one hand, reach
around the shock, pass the ring into
the other hand, and then slip the butt
end of the handle into the ring. Now,
shove the ring along the handle down
to the leather, turn the handle out
away from the side of the shock, and
it will stay there while you deliber-
ately put the Irvine around and tie.
Throw the handle back, release the
ring, and go to the next shock" Mr..
Amstutz believes that he is the orig
inator of this device, but he is willing
that others should use it without
charge.

When Horses Have Heaves.

There is no cure for heaves; it can
only be ameliorated or lessened in ex-
tent by feeding on nutritive> material
in small bulk, and more frequent ra-
tions. All voluminous and coarse food
should be avoided, such as timothy,
millet and clover hay, and only the
best wild hay given in small quantities,
preferably finely cut, mixed with mill
feed or steamed food. Feed every
thing wet. Food and water should
be consumed at least an hour before
an animal is used for work. It is but
natural that such a horse will be-
come weak and faint when driven or
worked hard all day, for such one
is only capable of performing slow
and light work, and it is cruel to use
him otherwise.-Rural World.

CORN SHOCKING TOOL.
1t In a Temporary Binder to Hold the

R. B. Amstutz, of Birmingham, O.,
gives the readers of the New York
Tribune the benefit of device which
he has tried with gratifying results
in shocking corn. He says that one
difficulty that is experienced in tying
with Irvine is that the shock is apt
to be bound too loosely, and then it
will not stand we'll. He aims, there
fore, to provide way for getting a
good squeeze on the bundle before
tying.

length of Irvine to be used. At one

Flax with Other Grain.

Under some conditions it may be
advisable to grow fax with other
grain. Flax is very exhaustive crop,
but in this fact lies the advantage
when grain is sown on very rich land
in mixing some faxseed with it. If
the fax is not grown the grain will
grow too rank a straw, while with the
flax to help exhaust the superfuous
fertility there is less danger of this.
There will be more of the grain
grown, while all of the faxseed that
is harvested will be so much clear
gain. Barley is one of the best grains
to grow with fax, and both are ready
to cut at the same time. But both
should be very lightly seeded if clo-
YER seed is sown the same spring, else
there will be poor catch of clover

How to Pickle Pork.

Some one recently called for re-
cipe for picking pork. Here is one
that we find good: Salt enough to
take out the blood and let it stand
two or three days. For every 100
pounds of meat take ten pounds of
salt, four pounds of Orleans sugar,
three-quarters ounce of saltpeter, two
ounces of soda and eight gallons of
water. Boil, strain and let cool. Then
pour over the meat. Let it stay in
pickle at least six weeks. Keep the
meat we'll under pickle, but be careful
not to weight it too heavy. If the pickle
should not be enough to cover you
will have to make enough as proper
toned above. This will depend some
what upon the shape of your vessel.

CORN FOR CHICKENS.
Poultry Thrives Most Excellently
Upon 1t Until 1t Has Made Its
Full Growth,

Without doubt, the very best feed
for flock of growing chickens is
corn, just whole corn fed to them in
unlimited quantities. If the chickens
have the range of the farm they will
not eat more corn than they need, and
the more they can be induced to eat
the faster they will grow. They get
enough grass, bugs, weed and grass
seeds when running about to balance
the corn ration, and it is one of the
best feeds that can be given them.
The laying hens should not have so
much corn, so this advice should not
be taken without the hens can be kept
from eating with the growing chick
ems, for a laying hen fed all the corn
she can eat will soon get too lazy to
forage much, and in the end will get
so fat that she will be inclined to take
a rest from laying and become an I'm.
profitable servant.
All the young poultry thrives on
corn until it has made its full growth.
There is nothing better for young
poultry than sweet corn from the time
ii gets to be good roasting ears until
the winter sets in. While this is being
fed the fowls will make weight in quite
surprising way, and they are very
fond of it. There is NO need to prepare
it in any way. They will take care: Of
it if the ears are husked and thrown
TO them. If with the sweet corn a sup
ply of sunfowers is available the fowls
will not only grow but their plumage
will become glossy and their combs
red, and they will be pictures of health
