A NEW GAME.
is Its Fascinating and
Ispiring Title.

A pleasant way to entertain an
evening party is to introduce the new
and fascinating game of "hobgolinks,'
which is played in the following man
ner: A long parlor or salon is re-
quired, possibly two. In fact, it is a
good plan to prepare as many as you
have, for it is an extensive game.
Remove the pictures and bric-a-brac
from the walls and group the chairs in
the middle of the room. Each guest
is then provided with pail of kalsO-
mine and a whitewash brush, with
which he or she makes a grotesque
splash on the wall. These impromptu
pictures are often very funny and
much merriment is the result.
BY having the wall paper and the
kalsomine of pleasantly contrasting
coiors beautiful effects may be OBJ
tanned. Or pail or two of liquid
lampblack adds variety to the collec-
ton. A small prize, say bicycle or
silver service, should be awarded to
the one who succeeds in making the
largest picture with one splash of the
brush. AS there is more or less dan
ger of scattering, the thoughtful hos
tess will provide her guests with
aprons to protect their clothing.
Very effective and pretty aprons
may be made from hemstitched linen
handkerchiefs, ornamented with
drawn work or embroidered by the
hostess own fair hands. One side of
the handkerchief should be gathered
on ribbon, which may be tied about
the waist

What is in the Soil.

Analysis shows, as result of a
great number of tests averaged by a
scientis that the first eight inches of
soil on an acre of fairly fertile land
contains 3,053 pounds of nitrogen,
worth, at Is cents a pound, $457.95,
about 16,317 pounds of potash worth
$73427, and 4,219 pounds of phos-
phoric acid, worth $295.33, a total of
81, 1875. Wheat grain rapidly alb
serbs the elements of the soil. For
example, 1OO,OOO,OOO tons of wheat
takes out of the soil 100000 pounds
Of phosphoric acid, worth $2,615,00
with 3O,7O0,OOO pounds of potash,
worth $1,688,500, and from soil and
air 104,500,000 pounds of nitrogen
worth 81, 6,25O, a total of over $751;
100000. Our wheat crop this wear is
about 600,000,000 bushels, and on the
basis of the figures mentioned it is
possible to figure out the cost of this
crop to the country.-New York Far

Next Years Wood.


This is one of the best months in
the year to cut trees for the yearly
fire supply on farms where wood con-
stitutes the whole or part of the fuel.
Possibly the wood might dry out bet
ter if cut in August while still in full
leaf. But nobody wants to do any
chopping in the woods at that hot sea-
son Of the year, with millions of mos
quitoes ready to eat him up. There
is much less sap in wood in December
than there is even in January. The
wood cut now can be split and worked
up more easily in December than it
can be when the trees are cut while in
leaf. There is also less sap to dry out
than during the late winter and early
spring months, so that when the tree
is cut for fire wood less drying is re-
CURED to prepare it for the stove

one from that of keeping hens. In
fact, as lice always come from hens,

While Gene Howard and Les
Douglass were out ON the Howard
ranch looking after cattle one day
last week, Les came near having his
eye put out by spent bullet. The
two men were some distance apart,
and Howard carried Winchester
rifle. As ne was travelling along
coyote crossed in front of him and
he shot it. The bullet passed clear
through the animal and struck Les
just above the right eye, running
down his nose and making quite al
ugly wound, though not a serious
one. Had the bullet struck Les
squarely in the eye it would doubt
less have destroyed that member.

Ranch Sold.

Mrs. K. Newman, of this place,
has sold her ranch on the Carson
river below here to l.. Donati Il Co.
The purchase price is said to be
$500. The ranch contains several
hundred acres of good land, and
has the advantage of having water
the year round. The thrifty Italians
now have all but two or three
ranches on the river, and will likely
own those in a few years.
