A Portable self.Feeder.

A correspondent OF the Breeders
Gazette describes a self. feeder sue
cessfully used on his farm. The
frame work is all bolted together, as
nails will NOT withstand the strain

heavy 3xl0 oak planks, each sixteen
feet long and placed g. feet apart.
The runners are rounded at both
ends 90 that it can be pulled either
way. Nine 2x4 ioists, each nine feet
long, are bolted onto the runners,
abont two feet apart. These joists
are then fastened together by 2x6
joists, which project over the runners
far enough TO support the feed trough.
The trough is built about the width

This is another season of lace, and
one of the prettiest methods of en-
ploying this everfavorite material is
in lace reyers, collars and boleros on
thin waists.
The charming bolero shown in the
large engraving is of heavy white lace
done in bow knot design and scol-
loped around the edge. Worn over
French organdie of pink and white
this little bolero has very dainty
effect Through the edges of the
lace are run two rows of narrow black
velvet ribbon, making big bow where
the two sidos meet.
The other illustration shows the
popular lace revere which extends to a
square collar at the back. This is, of
course, Russian lace, and is worn
with dress of mauve crepe de chine
or soft cashmere. A tucked front and
collar of white chiffon lends dainty
touch to this toilette.

The chief objection TO soiling is the
very wastefulness that the system is
supposed to avoid. Suppose COW
will eat 200 pounds of grass day
while roaming over pasture and de-
stroy lot more. The damage she
does is soon repaired by the weather,
but suppose you cut this 200 pounds
of grass and put in a manger for her.
She goes at it in fine relish until she
begins to get full, and then the mis-
chief begins. She wisps it about,
roots and noses it over, slobbering
over it until in the end she absolutely
refuses to eat any more of it, though
it is not half gone. / doubt if any
body N the country is making a sue
cess of soiling Farm and Home.

Celery in the Garden.

No garden is complete without a
good supply of celery. Sow a few
seeds in hotbed or in boxes in the
house, then in July transplant to rows
IN the garden. These should be about
one foot apart in the row and the rows
four or five feet apart. This can be
set between rows of early peas or
beans and tue ground thus made to
produce two crops in one season. AS
soon as the first crop is removed give
thorough cultivation. For blanching,
the soil may be thrown up about the
plants, or If you have few old tiles
these can be slipped over the punches
of celery and they will whiten nicely.

To Destroy Rose Leaf insects.

The small whitish insects which
suck the life out of rose leaves are
rose hoppers, which are frequently
found on the lower side of the leaves.
1t is said that if attended to before
they are fully developed they can be
easily destroyed by dusting the in
tested plants with slug shot When
FULLY grown they are very persistent,
and several applications have to be
made in order to kill them, and even
then absolute radiance is doubtful.
Aphides propagate so quickly, and
and in numbers so marvelously great,
it requires close attention to keep
plants moderately free from them
The secret is to begin at first sight of
them, or perhaps before they arrive.
for there are very few plants that are
not attacked before the season adj
vances very far -.Meehan's Monthly.

The calf makes the COW. IL good
COWS are desired or stock is to be i'm
proved, it is through the calves that
it may be done most effectively and
cheaply. The spring calves should
not be confined to pasture, and this
generally poor, but should be fed
with uastinted generosity. The rule
should be to feed calves with the
greatest liberality with the best food,
and to push them all cad the first year
of their life and never relax the gem
erous treatment till the old COW gives
up business. The animal is the ma
chine through which the food is
changed from a cheap material to a
much more valuable one.
Thus the milk feeding should be
continued 10 the age of Eve or six
months, some dairymen say all
through the cows life, and doubtless
this is true, for why should not the
food that makes a good COW be still
employed TO maintain her? 1t has
been proved by practice in many
dairies that the skinned milk max es
fifty per cent. more return when fed to
cows than by any other way of disposal
But 1t is certainly good for the calves,
tending to give them a good, strong
frame, a well-developed digestive
function, ability to dispose of much
food to advantage and well-developed
vital organs, thus building up an ami
NAL fully supplied with every facility
for making profit for her owner in her
after life. But with the milk gem
erous allowance of grain food must
be given. Henry Stewart, in New

A Useful Lesson.

The work of road-making teaches n
convict how to handle pick and a
spade, a scraper, a tamping block,
and screen-tools which are to be
found everywhere, and with which he
can earn an honest living later in al
most any place where fate happens to
throw him; which is very different
thing from standing all day in one
place and feeding mechanical heel
cutter, or cutting threads in screw
with lathe, or saving lengths of
wood for broom-handles- occupations
which are so restricted in scope that
only good luck can ever afford him a
chance to use his acquired knowledge
after becoming free man again.

moving the grain from the tro ough
should you choose to do 80. This,
however, is seldom done. The bot
tom of the feeder is built high in the
middle and slopes to the feed trough
on either side. The roof projects a
little over the sides and measures
about fourteen feet from cave to cave.
A door or cover is provided at either
side for the feed trough. If one has
cows in lot at night, but wishes
calves to grain from the feeder during
the day, he can simply drop the lid
when the COWS are in the lot and raise
it on turning them out. Calves can
then eat oats or shelled corn or what
ever you may have in the feeder for
them. Cut the rafters for the floor
out of fourteen foot 2x4's, making
them each 3l feet long; thirty-six
rafters of this sort will be needed for
the bottom of the drop on the sides.
After the feeder is sided up with
shiplap or flooring, the roof of lX3
sheeting is put on, which is after
ward covered with shingles. 1t is a
good idea to put several braces across
the feeder from cave to cave. Bolt
those to tho 2x4's. Strength will be
given to the structure by running a
half-inch rod the length OF the feeder
and making fast just below the grain
doors. The feeder is about sixteen
feet long, and has capacity of about
1000 bushels of corn. Total cost, in
Guiding lumber, labor and hardware,
will be about $50 or $50. From fifty
to sixty cattle can be fed at one of
these feeders. Have slides in the
troughs so the amount of grain can
be adjusted TO the kind Of feed.
