BODIES OF DEAD SOLDIERS.
'Roumania' Arrives at Santiago With
1870 from Porto Rico.

Washington, March 6.-The trans
port "Romaia" has reached Santiago
from San Juan with the bodies of 1870
soldiers who died in Porto Rico. The
records of the war department. show
that about $50 are buried In the neigh
borhood of Santiago, and the work Of
~uncovering them may take two or three
weeks. Most of the Americans sleeping
in graves at Santiago are regulars.
Quartermaster Ludington has the
work in hand and reports satisfactory
progress being made. The graves Of
the American heroes were carefully
marked at the time of burial, and the
officers in Cuba and Porto Rico had in
structions to make it possible to locate
and identify the bodies.
The bodies will be forwarded to the
relatives If desired. The government
also offers to provide permanent burial
places with the Is, 900 other heroic dead
in the national cemetery at Arlington.
In most Eases the relatives have ac-
cepted the offer to have their dead laid
to rest with the army of patriots at
Arlington, and it Is probable that near
ly 1000 Of the bodies will be inferred
in the national cemetery within sight
of the White House.
No arrangements have yet been made
for ceremonies in connection with the
burial, but 1t is probable all military
honors will be paid the dead.

be reached is because sheep can not

LOTTERIES AND LUCK
TRICKS THAT HAVE BEEN PLAYED BY
TICKLE FORTUNE.

Some Instances Tint APPLY illustrate
the Truth of the Old Adngc That
There Is Mnny IL Slip 'Twixt the
Cup nnd the Lin.
There are few things with which ro-
nance is more closely connected than
the distribution of lottery prizes, and
there can be no doubt that we BritOns
are all the better off because of the lille
gality of holding lotteries in the United
Kingdom. A big lottery must disap-
point hundreds of thousands while it
anriChes ono winner, who often finds
that his hastily acquired wealth results
in doing him more harm than good.
A short time ago the first prize in
one of the Italian state lotteries, which
amounted to some GS, 900, fell to a
peasant who, with his wife, had actually
died of starvation within a few hours
Of the drawing of the prize.
Owing to a dream in which a peasant
had the presentiment that a certain
number would be on the ticket which
would win the splendid prize, he
scraped all his money together and pur-
chased not the ticket he wanted, be-
nus it was already suld, but one which
bore the same %nun,erals, differently ar
ranged. Then he And his wife fell on
desperately hard tiHes, which eventual
ly closed upon themSn death from sheer
starvation, for he had tried and failed
to sell his lottery chance, which was
the last thing left to him.
When the drawing cana on, he won
the first prize of Gs, 600, but as he was
dead and no next of kin could be discov-
cred the prize was ratified for again,
when it fell to swell the purse of an
Italian banker who already was pos
sessed Of vast wealth,
A German lady living in R~"G2awiok
had a fancy that a certain ticket would
win n prize in a lottery in which the
first prize was Gl5, 000. 1t may seem
strange, but it is vouched for as being
perfectly true, that she go altered her
opinion us to the chances of her ticket
winning n prize that she bartered it

FALL FLOWING FOR CORN.

Last fall we plowed about four
acre strip through our cornfeld. This
strip constituted just one pillow land.
We commenced another land and
plowed about a rod wide around it,
when the ground froze up and stopped
us for the winter. In the spring
we finished the field, working at vari
Gus times from early spring till the
goth of May. We fitted with a disc
harrow. The fall blowing fitted with
as little work as the spring, and was
freer from grass and weeds. While
we coul1 see no particular difference
in the growth of the corn on the diff
ferent parts, we imagined the fall
blowing was the best. In fact l think
it was the best on the fall plowed part,
all through the early part of the sea-
son, but when cutting time came we
could see no difference. The fall
blowing was more easy tended, and
cleaner from weeds all through the
summer.
The ground is so full of humus from
UlO hCdFy CIOtJS VI ClONC plOWOO
der that it did not get hard from the
action of spring rains, but kept loose
and mellow and worked up very nice
ly. Had the ground been void of
humus, and had it puddled and run
together it would have been big job
to get in good shape for planting. I'm
der such conditions it would be best
not to fall pillow, but when the ground
is of such nature as not to get hard
before fitting time comes, then l think
there is time saved and just as good
corn raised from fall blowing. But
deliver me from fall blowing where
the ground is clay and will run to
gether as smoth as a floor. 1t will
take as much time and hard work to
fit it for planting as to pillow and fit in
the spring. Under proper conditions
blowing saves time anG horse flesh,
and every farmer should know those
conditions before he plows.-Ohio

STORING ICE.

Perhaps there is no building the
cost Of which can be So we'll adapted
to the farmers means as the ice house.
For few dollars invested in cheap
lumber, says writer in Country Gen
tIenodn, and two or three days work,
he can have an ice house that will
answer his purpose nearly as we'll as
a more expensive one, or he can hire
a carpenter to build the house, use
good material, paint and shingle it at
a cost of from $50 to 800; but one
will keep ice about as we'll as the
other. The first ice house 1 built was
a cheap one. It was twelve by four
teen feet, l think, but large enough
for our purpose. A few old boards
had on hand, some two by four scan
thing for the frame, and few nails
were all the material used, and days
work for myself and hired man built
it. The sawdust was obtained at a
sawmill near by, and the ice from the
mill pond, costing nothing except our
own work. For several years we
were supplied with ice with little or
no outlay in cash. The old ice house
was not very ornamental to the place,
and we tore it down and erected a
more costly building; but the old
building kept the ice nearly as we'll as
the new, and mention it to show the
small cost for which ice may be put
up, so that no farmer who has the
time to attend to it need be without
ice. Five to ten two horse loads of
ice are generally sufficient for both
dairy and family use, and two or three
loads of sawdust will pack it.

OUR FARMERS.
VINEGAR FROM APPLE CIDER.

Take, say, ten gallons new cider,
and suffer it to ferment fully, which
will probably be in about Two weeks,
if the weather is warm; then add
about eight gallons of new cider for
producing second fermentation, and
in about two weeks add a like quanti-
ty-to produce a third fermentation.
Stop the bunghole of the barrel with
an empty bottle with the neck down
ward, and expose to the sun. When
the vinegar is come, set in cool place.
When making, let there be a moder-
ate degree of heat and free access to
external air. The process is fastened
by adding to the cider a quantity of
mother of vinegar, as it is called.

vinegar and acts as a ferment. The
strength of the amount of sugar or

verted into acetic acid. Cider made
from late apples is esteemed the best
for vinegar.
2. Another method is as follows:
Put some cider in cask and add to it
some vinegar containing abundance
Of mother of vinegar; after some days,
if the acetic fermentation has taken
place and souring is going on, add
another portion of cider, and at SINH
lar intervals a third and a four tn in
stallment of cidar. When the whole
has become vinegar, take out as much
as is equal to the vinegar first put in
and replace by fresh cider, and so
proceed. The casks should never be
but partly full; good exposure to air
is necessary, and the temperature
should be kept at eighty five degrees.
