Homemade Soap.

Choose only well-burned ashes, and
save in boxes or kegs secure from damp
ness. In the spring get clean salt bar
rel; fix 1t on slanting boards, fixed 80 as
to drain lye into a trough; put handful
of straw into the barrel; fill the barrel
with ashes to about six inches Of top;
make depression in the ashes to hold
two quarts; keep this full Of hot water.
The lye will start to run after some
hours. When you have lye enough put
the iron kettle on the outdoor fire; fill
with lye eight inches from top; put in
soap grease at the ratio Of one gallon
Of soap grease to eight gallons Of lye;
boil slowly; don't stir; generally four
hours boiling is sufficient; test by cool
ing a few teaspoonfuls to see If it is of
desired thickness, like we test jelly.
Don't use any other ingredient but soap
grease and lye. When done leave in
kettle until next day, then skim the
grease off the top to be used in next
kettle Of soap; dip out the soap and fill
in jars or wooden vessels. Soap made
from this recipe can be used for the fin
est linen washing after it has been made
six months. 1t will do for the cOlored
and coarser clothes right away.-Prac-

Cutting Seed Potatoes.

Every grower of potatoes has noted
the fact that some varieties do not
sprout well, while every eye on other
sorts sprouts and makes good plants,
even when the seed is confined to sim
gle eye These results are seen when
the practice to cut the tubers Of all va
rieties in the same manner, but 1t is not
safe to rely on the same method of cut
ting up all varieties for seed. Some OF
them may be cut into quarters or even
eighths and produce good results, while
other sorts are failures when cut into
pieces smaller than halves. This differ
ence is due to the fact that in some va
rieties many eyes are dead" and will
not sprout.
The only way to determine the proper
shape or size Of potato seed is to sprout
a tuber of each variety you wish to
plant Take the tuber, cut it into single
eyes, quarters and halves and also plant
q whole tuber; in a few days they will
sprout and an examination will readily
show which Of the eyes are the strong
est and how the tubers should be cut
for general planting in order to obtain
the best results.

Helfers for Beef.

A great change has taken place in
regard to the values placed upon heifers
by purchasers of fat cattle during the
last few years. Before the dressed beef
business had been developed shippers
Disseminated against heifers, and they
could only be sold for city slaughter.
Now the large firms engaged in slaugh-
tering cattle and shipping dressed beef
to all the leading cities of the country
purchase heifers as readily as steers,
although they still endeavor to secure
them at a slightly lower price than
steers Of equal quality. But a. mixed lot
often commands as good pclCe as If oil
were steers, for butchers know that heif-
ers dress equally as we'll as steers and
the beef is undoubtedly as good. But to
secure the highest price heifers must be
we'll bred and fully Finished otherwise
they will still be Disseminated against.
At 16 to 18 months the heifers would
not have arrived at maturity and would
be rather light in weight to meet the re-
Quirements of the best trade. From
1900 to 1900 pounds Is the desirable
weight, and 1t will usually require an
age, even with good breeding and feed
ing, Of from "a to 80 months to give a
weight Of 1900 pounds or over. Cattle
cannot be fattened in sixty or seventy
days, but 1t requires from eight months
to a year. 1t does not pay to feed ILL
bred cattle to finish, and from three
to four months on full feed will usually
give better results than when feeding is
longer continued.-Live Stock Indicator.

Mo- Overproductlon In Eggs.

Considerable objection has been MADE
to the holding of poultry shows, the
idea being that they induce others TO
engage in raising poultry or eggs 10
the detriment Of those already engaged
in the business. AS a matter OF fact,
il any one interested will take the trou-
BILE to examine into the actual state OF
affairs, they will find that the price OF
eggs during the winter season has not
varied for years, except when unusu-
ally severe weather causes an increase
in price. While it is true that the pro-
duction of strictly fresh eggs has in
creased, there has also been an increase
in the consumption, as there will con-
tinue to be as long as fresh eggs are in
demand for food. There need be no fear
of oVerprOduction Of fresh eggs, while,
on the other hand, eggs not up to the
mark are usually a drug on the mar
ket. If you are prepared to put on the
market strictly fresh eggs at the sea-
son of the year when they are in de-
mand you need not have the slightest
fear of overproduction or low prices.

Likes and Dlsllkes Of Sheen.

Among farm animals none are so
dainty in their likes and dislikes as
sheep, and to successfully raise them
these traits must be closely observed.
Sheep will not touch fodder Of any kind
that has been nosed over by other stock,
nor will they eat grains that are musty,
dusty, or through which rats have been
in the habit Of running. Pure water is
also one of their requirements, and they
will frequently starve themselves rather
than drink water not perfectly clean.
Sheep are dainty animals, and seem to
have not only dislike for mud but an
actual dread Of 1t. With these charac-
teristics 1t will be readily seen that it
wouTd be useless to attempt raising
sheep unless one Is willing to provide
clean and comfortable quarters, pure
water, and sweet, clean food.

Vines for Farm Houses.

AS a rule farm houses have too few
vines around them. We often see the
dainty Morning Glory, the Gourd, the
Moon-fiower and other vines easily
grown from seed, and these are certain
ly better than none at all, but their
growth is Of necessity confined to sim
gle season, and when considerable
growth is desired they do not answer
the purpose as well as the hardy vines,
like Honeysuckles, Wisteria and the Ivy.
The Honeysuckle family contains sew
eral varieties Of great value, and as all
Of them are entirely hardy and require
simply an ordinary garden soil and
plenty of sun, they may be readily
grown. For covering unsightly out
buildings, such as the sides Of sheds and
smoke houses facing the street, nothing
is better than Ampelopsis Veitchii, or
Japan Ivy, which makes rapid growth
and is a pleasing shade Of green, the
foliage changing to shades of brown and
yellow in autumn. The Madeira vine.

Butter and Cheese.

It requires about twenty pounds Of
milk to make a pound Of butter, and
fourteen pounds Of milk to make a
pound of cheese. More labor and care Is
necessary to make a cheese, however,
but good cheese brings high price,
especially when the parties making 1t
are known and reliable, and make spe-
cialty of choice article. There is no
good reason why Kansas should not pro-
duce Just as good cheese as Is made any
where in the world, and 1t is lamenta-
BILE fact that York State cheese sells In
Kansas for nearly twice as much per
pound as Kansas-made cheese. There Is
no good reason for this, and Kansas
ought to be sending to York State a
better quality Of cheese than York State
is sending to Kansas. Kansas butter
goes into all the Eastern markets and
commands a high price because of its
good quality and flavor, and Kansas
cheese ought to be as good as the best
made anywhere.

Advantages Of Broad Tires.

Most farmers understand that the use
Of broad wagon tires gives an advantage
in the matter Of lighter draft, and, as
they are usually mounted on low
frames, an advantage Is gained in load
ing and unloading The broad tires pull
much lighter on paved streets, gravel
roads and dirt roads in all conditions
except when soft or muddy; in such
cases the narrow tires are to be pre-
ferred. For use on the farm in meadow
lands, corn lands, and, in fact, on all
kinds Of lands in all kinds Of shapes,
the broad tire show lighter draft and
It is to be preferred to the narrow tire
taking the year through.
