Claims She Was Compelled 10 Leave on
Account Of Husbands ClueIJ.

New York, Sept. 29.-The martial
troubles OF David De Costa Andrade
and his pretty young wife, Laura, have
reached the courts. Lawyer Fenton
Rockwell Wednesday applied to Justice
Garretson for counsel fee and alimony
pending the trial of the action brought
against the wife for absolute divorce.
Delaney +. Nichols represented Mr..
Andrade. who is professor of mathe-
matics in Browns Business college on
Fulton street. Brooklyn. Mr. and Mrs.
Andrade were married on April II last.
The ceremony was performed in the
Greenwood Baptist church by the pas
tor. Rev. Robert III. Hull. The couple
went TO live at No. 10 Fourth avenue.
THE BLISS SHORT LIVED.
on June 21 Mrs. Andrade. her hus-
band alleges. suddenly disappeared
from her home. taking with her all her
trunks and numerous articles OF silver
ware received as wedding gifts. Mr..
Andrade then caused To be published
in one of the local papers an advertise
ment in which he stated that as his
wife had left him without just cause
he would not be responsible for any
debts contracted by her. He then con-
present action for divorce is brought.
The papers submitted to the court on
both sides are voluminous. Mrs. And
rade SAYS she was compelled To leave
her husband because he ill-treated her.
She says he beat her. thrust her into
a closet. attempted 10 strangle her and
said he would Kill her. She was afraid
he would execute his threat and she
left him. She ds now living with her
mother. Mrs. Joseph Miller, ait No. 60
East Second street Windsor Terrace.
Mr.. Andrade says he lives at No. 9s
Henry street. and is 25 years old. His
wife is 20. He denies that he ill-treated
his wife. He says she was disagree
able and cross from the time of their
marriage. At times she remained away
from home all night and refused TO tell
where she had been. When she disap-
peared from home neither he nor her
parents could learn where she had
gone.
WAS LIVING WITH ANOTHER.
1t was then discovered that Mrs.
Andrade was boarding at No. 219 Liv-
ingston street with John Riggs. the
atrical bill poster. She lived there,
Andrade says. two weeks as his wife.
He has the affidavfts of several per-
sons in support of this statement.
Lafayette w Wingate of No 1872
says Riggs told him he loved Mrs. And
rade. and that he would stand by her.
CALLED HER BROWN EYES"
A woman who conducts the barber
shop where Riggs went 10 get shaved
says Mrs. Andrade came there with
Riggs and wanted TO shave him, but
the request was refused She called
Riggs John" and he called her Brown
Eyes"
Mrs. Andrade denies her husbands
allegations. and says she was not
turned out of the Livingston street
house. but left IL on learning the kind
of house il was. She says she was
afraid to go to her fathers house when
she left her husband. because he sided
with him. Riggs had been a friend OF
the family for years and got her the
room in Livingston street where she
boarded. Justice Garretson allowed
Mrs. Andrade 81 a week alimony.

VentllatinS Poultry Houses.

Chicken "cranks" in a great many
cases are generally very enthusiastic
over the matter of ventilating the
houses in which poultry are kept, and
many are the schemes practiced in OF
der to accomplish this end. Ventila-
tion is an excellent thing, though I be-
lieTe that on the majority of farms,
and especially at this season of the
year, little more attention should be
paid in trying to determine how not
to ventilate. And this not only ap-
plies to the poultry house but also to
the barns. Give this matter your
time from now on till spring, for with
out doubt there has been far more
birds killed by the over-ventilation
than by under-7eltilation. During
the colder months it is almost impos-
sible to have q chicken house too
warm, and all the fresh air the birds
will need is more than likely to find
its way into the house in some shape
OF manner.-Weekly Witness.

Watering Horses,

In watering, as in feeding horses,
man must study the individuality of
his animal. With few exceptions. in
my opinion, says writer in Farming,
a horse should have waterin sufficient
quantities to satisfy his thirst when
ever he is thirsty.
Theoretically speaking, horse
should first be given drink, then hay,
and lastly oats. The capacity Of his
stomach is limited, and il fed oats,
then hay, and then watered, some of
the oats may be forced out Of the
stomach ESPECIALLY if he is heavy
feeder before they have been sutfi-
ciertly acted upon by the digestive
Juices, anl consequently will pass off
in the faces only partially digested.
A horse should always be given 4
drink before meal. 1t requires O
little training 10 get him 70 drink be-
fore breakfast, especially in cold
westher, but in such weather he is
not liable to drink much even after
his meals. In all cases, except when
b. has been d long time without
ws:ier and is very warm, he should he
a:%2ved all he will drink before the
r..6-$lay and evening meals, and also
a t1,.jak after he has finished his meal.
w it is al ali possible he should
haze sater between his meal es-
ne&Slly IN warm weather.

Covering Ensil19eo

Professor Robertson in his annual
report says: IL filing silo particular
pains should be taken to spread the
ensilage evenly over the surface; other
wise the leaves and lighter parts may
lie in one place, and the stalks and
ears in another. The ensilage at the
sides and corners Of the silo should be
trodden down as compactly as posi-
bic. Then Immediately after the silo
is filled it should be covered with q
layer offour or six inches of cut straw,
and that by about eighteen inches OF
two feet Of any kind of rough straw.
In the feeding ont of the ensllage,
it is not good plan to expose large
surface in the silo at one time. Where
practicable, only as much Of the sur
face of the ensilage should be uncov-
cred as will cause depth of about six
inches to be removed from it by feed
ing every day. A half or one-quarter
of the ensilage may be uncovered at
one time, and it may be cut down with
q hay knife, leaving perpendicular
face, which will mold very slightly.
Where too large surface of ensilage
is exposed to the air it becomes often
sive to the smell and gives rise to the
growth of molds. These sometimes
conteminate the stable and spread the
belief that the feeding Of ensilage I'M
parts a flavor to the milk. Such havors
get into the milk through the atmos-
phere, and not through the feeding Of
the COW.

Keeping Cabbage During Winter.

1t is agreed by most poultrymen
that cabbage is one of the best green
foods for poultry during the winter,
but it is usually hard to keep heads in
good condition for more than a few
weeks after winter sets in. Here is a
plan worth trying. 1t has been sue
cessfully used for several seasons in
sections where the winter is peculiar
~ trying owing to lack Of snow to
furnish partial protection. The cab
bages are pulled up by the roots and
carted to a part Of the farm where the
ground is sloping. It so happens
where the plan was tried that the
ground was near a cluster of trees.
but locality near by buildings would
give the same protection. A shallow
trench is dug, say two feet deep, and
filed a foot deep with leaves. On
this bed of leaves the cabbages are set
roots up, close together. Leaves are
then heaped over them in large guam
titles and held in place with brush.
The trenches are made in beds with
deep furrows between them to carry
of the water, the furrow being made
with the slope Of the land so that the
water will not run against the side Of
the beds. The cabbages will freeze,
but will keep in perfect condition and
may be easily taken out as wanted and
after being thawed out may be chopped
up for use on the table or for the
poultry. By this plan green food
may be had until late in the spring

Uses of the Soil.

In the first place it is an immense
workshop in which chemical and bio
logical changes are constantly going
on. The minute soil particles or rock
fragments are continually being dis
solved and made ready for hungry
plant roots. The soil is the home Of
vast army Of living creatures. We
never see them. They are too small.
They are the lowest form Of life-sim-
pie, one.celled plants, in the shape OF
spheres or oTals, or short rods. How
small are these creatures Of the earth?
In transverse diameter one twenty-five
thousandth of an inch is common
measurement. Increase tFe hight OF
the ordinary man one thousand times
and his head would be over mile
above the earth, yet one of these little
creatures under the same magnifca-
ton would have plenty Of room to
dance up and down in the film of water
between two plates Of glass pressed
firmly together. From 100 to 25O OF
the,a placed side hy side would make
the thickness of all ordinary sheet Of
paper. These little fellows are con-
tinuallv at work causing decay Of
vegetable matter in the soil, and thus
making plant food. They are among
the farmers best friends. Second,
the soil is great storehouse Of water.
If We always had plenty Of moisture IN
our soils we would have good crops.
The soil acts as q large sponge to ao-
sor5 water and hold it for the use Of
crops. Third. the soil is a home for
plants. It affords a place in which
they may live and grow.-American

PRODUCING" Good Cranes.

A French agricultural journal gives
the method by which vine grower of
Touraiae is said to produce magnii-
cent grapes. He dissolves two kilo-
grams OF sulphate of iron in 100 liters
OF water and sprinkles it on the leaves
and punches Of the vines. The first
application is made when the grapes
are about one-third their full size, the
second about a month later and the
third about twenty days before they
are cut. 1t is asserted that CORE
spending results are obtained with
pears, apples and cherries. The
method is inexpensive and the journal
quoted recommends a trial, though it
does not guarantee the success of the
treatment in all cases.

fore quarter to two in the presence
Of q large body Of spectators.
Ihe sea was by 10 means smooth,
and the tide being at cub rendered the

pace, bur after the first fifty yards set
tied into steady stroke. He was
headed By small boat carrying 4
white flag, ard he kept yard or two
behind al the way, passing the Cen
tral Pier about three o'clock and the
Victoria Pier fifty minutes later. At
half-past I'VE he arrived at ST. Annes,
but could not reach the pier, the tide
being out.
= AS the conditions Of the wager re-
4uired that he should approach the
pier by water, tedious wait of two
hours followed, during which Finney

Of position succeeded in keeping afoat
until the tide came in, when he swan

minutes to eight, having spent five
hours eleven minutes IN the water.-
