ed the Licenses of Two Captains
for Negligence-River News.
The U. S. local inspectors of steam
craft yesterday completed their inves-
tigation of the collision case of the
steamers T. N. Barnsdall and w. NJ.
Duffy. and came to the conclusion from
the circumstances to which their at
tention was called that it was due to
negligence on the part of Captains
S. Brady Morgan and Charles Lieving,
OF the two boats. The license of each
was therefore suspended for thirty
days.
1t will be remembered that the two
steamers collided at Darby's Landing,
this State. on April 7th. the Duffy's
bow coming in contact with the Barns
dalls starboard, and the latter sus-
tanned 800 damages.
Previous to this date Charles D.
Higgs, first assistant engineer of
non-condensing steamers, was suspend
ed for thirty days on the charge Of
intemperanee.

Variation in Seedlings.

The law of variation operates in ev-
erything. In no one particular respect
do individuals resemble absolutely
their parents. Even in the time of
Towering there is. a variation. Some
individuals will bloom earlier and
some later than others. This has been
more particularly marked in the more
snowy Powered Of our ornamental
trees. In the Koelreuteria this par
ticular variation is striking. In 100
trees, all raised from the same pack
age Of seeds, there will be as much as
three yeeks of difference in the time
of Towering. Possibly the sexual yari-
atio2. may have something to do with
the difference in the Towering time, as
certainly it has to do with the showi-
ness Of the blossoms. AS tits the case
with so many American and Japanese
trees, there is a great tendency to a
division of sexes. Some Koelreuteria
trees are wholly barren, while others
are abundantly productive. The bar
rem trees have rather larger flowers,
and are more snowy in every respect,
and, so far as our somewhat limited
experience in this respect goes, are
among the first to flower. This little
difference in this respect has not been
noticed by cultiyators as it deserves to
be.-Meehan's Monthly

Rack for Feeding Corn Fodder.

Rack for Feeding Corn Fodder.
Feeding unshreded corn fodder is
hard work, on account of the difficulty
of handling. There is also great part
of the stalks that the cattle will not
eat. This accumulation under the cat
ties feet or about the feed lot soon be-
comes a nuisance. Accompanying this
description J. l.. Irwin sends to the
Orange Judd Farmer sketch of a
rack that will be easy to fill and which
will retain the stalks, allowing the cat
tie to strip off the leaves. corn and ten
der eatable portions. The uneaten por-
ton can be cleaned out before filling
anew, and the useless stalks piled up
for hauling away or mixed with the
accommodating manure heap, where the
refuse OF barn and stable is piled be-
fore being hauled to the fields.
The rack is to be built against the
fence, SO that the filling can be done
from the outside, the outside of the
manger at being only high enough to
retain the fodder. The frame of the
rack should be made of 2x4s. The rack
b should be made of four-inch fencing
lumber, the Stats about four inches
apart. The outside rack, c, should be
set out far enough SO the cattle can

A neglected range implies ignorance

stove about to be discarded as worth

the cook declared that she had lately

poor cooking and waste. Clinkers, too,

range, leave the hampers all open, and
let the fire burn as it will till it is re-
duced to debris. Then dump in more
coal or throw in some kindlings hrst-
and continue as before. On the con-
trary, the fire should be watched and
a little coal added at time, with the
hampers only opened before meal time.
In this way alone can a good fire be
economically maintained. For young
housekeeper it is needful to note these
things. Otherwise the ashes Will be

A Modern Prophet.

There has died near Benares the
most famous Indian yogi of this CEN
fury. the Swami Bhaskarananda. Many
are the reports of his station in life
before he assumed the yellow robe, the
staff, and the gourd of asceticism; but
as his age was known to be consider
ably more than one hundred years. the
tales of his origin can be scarcely more
than tradition He has been famous
as a wonder worker for many years,
and among his predictions are those
concerning the future of various mem
bers of the English royal family Ac-
cording to his declaration, the Queen
will live only from six to ten months
after the beginning of the twentieth
century, while the Prince of Wales will
survive her only a short time. These
forecasts may be the foundation of the
popular belief in England that ..Tum-
NV as he is called by the masses,
will never be King of England ar-
per's Bazar.

The Potato Crop.

The potato crop last year was est
mated at 242,0O0,O0O bushels, with a
yield of 1S1 bushels per acre. The aver
age price may be placed at about so
cents a bushel, which is considerable
addition to the income of the farmers in
certain sections. While the value OF
500 per acre is not equal to that of
many crops which are grown by gar
deners near large cities, it is a fairly
remunerative one, and has the great
advantage to many people that it does
not need to be taken to market every
day, like strawberries, nor at just the
moment it is fit for use, like many gar
den crops, but it can be stored and sold
when the owner is ready to attend to it
after his hurry of harvesting is over.

Kitchen Oi1c1oth.

An old housekeeper whose kitchen Oil
cloth is always the envy of visitors to
her kitchen explained the other DAY,
when asked how she kept it so bright
that it had had a wash of glue water.
Melt some glue in an ordinary glue pot.
Wash the oilcloth and let it dry. In
the evening, when there will be no re-
turns to the kitchen, wash the ollcloth.
in a weak solution Of the glue water
with a finannel cloth. If the dry season
of the year is chosen, the floor VIII De
dry before morning. This treatment
given an oilcloth that is beginning TO
lose it's luster will make it look IKE
new. To keep it from fraying on the
edges, paint the edges around the room
with a stronger solution of the glue
water while it is hot.
