HAVE A HIGH STANDARD.
And Then Try to Live Up to IL ~
Nearly ~ Circumstances and
Conditions Permit.

If the question as to who is the most
were thoroughly studied. great deal
more success in farming would result.
The most successful farmer sees the
mistakes which hasty action makes.
and therefore considers well before
hand everything he does. and avoids
the mistakes of rushing at a job with
out considering the consequence The
most successful farmer is he who inn
proves his intellectual faculties along
with the development of his industrial
faculties.
Some of the things the successful
farmer does are as follows: He con-
siders well how to prepare land for
next years crop. He labors at it I'M
tiringly until thoroughly satisfied that
1t is well worked and will produce a
crop of No. l grain. He clears his
land of rubbish and stones. and will
not hesitate to put in drains and en-
pend money on improving the land
whenever he deems it necessary. He
carefully selects what fields are best
for wheat and which for pasture. His
buildings are good. thus keeping his
stock in good condition. He selects his
dairy cows and his cattle for beef. he
selects the best breed of pigs and
other animals. and everything he has
is kept up to the standard.
He is not a greedy. groveling old fell
low. On the contrary. he enjoys life
in every way which he thinks does
him any good. He takes and studies
agricultural papers. newspapers and
books of an instructive sort. and al
lows his children good moral literature.
He goes to his wife for advice and
lays before her his plans for future
time. He quietly attends to his busi-
ness at home and does not ask the pub
lie what he may and may not do. In
all his outdoor zeal the farmer does
not forget his wife. but has everything
in the house as handy and convenient
as possible for her. Perhaps my stand
ard for the successful farmer is too
high; but every one of us ought TO
try to be as nearly the standard a.
possible.-M. j. Mills. in Farm and

FINEST NEW YORK PULPIT.
Beautiful Work Lately Completed
Tor All Angels Episcopal
Church.

All Angels Episcopal church. West
End avenue and Eighty-first street,
has just acquired what is described
rs the finest pulpit in America. 1t
is the work of Karl Bitter. and was
given to the church by Mrs. Sarah
Cornell in memory of her husband
and two sons. The style of the pull
pit is Italian renaissance. changed
slightly to conform with the interior
of the church, says the New York
Herald.
Standing against a column. the pill
lar has for it's foundation repre-
senfation of Moses with the tablets
of law. and corbels presenting the
head of the prophets. intended to
symbolic that the Gospel preached
from the pulpit is based upon the law
and the prophets.
4 choir rail, which leads up to the
pulpit rail and surrounds the pulpit
itself. is decorated with a procession
of angels. Above the pulpit is a can
opy of oak, surmounted by an angelic
figure holding a trumpet. and forming
an apotheosis of what is begun below
in the procession.
There has also just been used for
the first time in the same church an
altar and reredos. erected by men,
bers of the Hoffman family in men,
ory of the most liberal patron of All
Angels church. the late Rev. DR..
Charles F. Hoffman. The altar is sur
mounted by canopy of brass. per-
haps the only one of the kind in this
country. although such are common
in northern Italy. The new rectory
of the parish, costing $4,000. is al
most completed.

Qulcksilver FlaNks.

The bottles or TASKS used for trans.
porting quicksilver are generally
made of boiler iron and are cylindrical
in shape, about - inches in height
and four inches in diameter. with a
screw plug inserted in one end. The
capacity of flask is 76k pounds and
its weight about IA pounds. Such
TASKS are used by all producers OF
quicksilver. and pass through the
hands of various dealers till they
reach the consumer. The total mum.
ber used in this country cannot be
very large. as the total product last
year of quicksilver in the United
States was but 2s.s79 TASKS, and the
same flask can be used again and
again till it gets too rusty inside. 4
flask can easily last 25 years. We un-
derstand most of those now in use are
made abroad, but an American firm
also has made them. Most of the sec.
ond-hand TASKS can be bought for q
or 30 cents apiece.

PURE WATER FOR SHEEP.
supply Disease Is Apt to Deci-
mate the Flock.

An important point in successful
sheep management is the water supply.
While good water is great thing in
growing all kinds Of live stock. it is
especially so with the sheep. which is
not only a dainty feeder. but dainty
drinker. and will only take bad. stag
nant water into its stomach when
driven to it by thirst. Not only will
il suffer for the want of drink when
the supply is bad. but it is subject to
more diseases. usually parasitic, that
have their origin in polluted water.
than any other of the domestic ami
mails. Where the flocks get their sup
ply from surface water courses liable
to pollution of all kinds. sick sheep may
be expected with the aggravation that
il is often impossible to determine
what is the matter with the animals
or what to do for them With such
source of supply. also. rainy season
which washes the soil from long dis
tances and brings down accumulations
of filth, is likely to incrsas the amount
of obscure disease in the flock. 1t
is also no unusual cause of ScOurs in
the lambs. We generally look for the
cause of scours in the food. but quite as
often il is due TO impure water. Every
body is familiar with the disturbance
in the human family. particularly in
hot weather. which follows the use of
bad water. The stomach of the lamb,
and even the sheep. is quite as suscep-
tible to dangers from this source as
is that of the shepherd. We often see
fiocks on fairly good pastures. that
ought to do well so far as feed is con-
cerned. showing a lack of thrift and
a general dullness for which there
seems to be, at first blush. no apparent
reason. Very often an examination of
the water supply will reveal the cause.

POISON IN A WEARY BODY.
Human Beings Are Subject 10 n Spe-
cies of SeIf-POisoning by the
Eating Of Game.

The eating of high" game is un-
doubtedly attended with risks and the
+; poisonous effects are probably due
to the toxins produced in the earlier
! stages of the putrefactive process,
says the London Lancet. The advan-
. tage. of course. of hanging game is
that the flesh becomes tender and
decidedly more digestible than when
it is quite fresh. The ripening proc
ess. however, may mean the elabOra-
tion of toxins. 1t has been stated
that the production of the character
istic fiavors of game is related direct
ly to the amount of sulphuretted hy-
drogen or sulphuralcohol set free,
but it is rather repulsive to think
that the delicate fiavors of game is
dependent upon that invariable prod
sulphuretted hydrogen. The smell
evolved during cooking of high"
game is even more disgusting.
Fresh game sometimes sets up mys-
terious poisoning symptoms. which
have been attributed to the face Of
the game having been overhurried
and fatigued. Fatigue products. in
deed. have been separated from over
hunted game which when injected
into healthy animal have produced
marked poisonous effects. There is
no doubt that fatigue products under
certain circumstances are also elab-
GRATED in the human body and give
rise to a species of self-poisoning.
characteristic symptoms of which are
headache, stupor and gastric and in
testinal pains. The flesh of over
driven cattle may prove poisonous
from the same cause.
This curious formation Of poisonous
products in the flesh of animals
through a state of terror or exhaus-
tion is a question well worth consid-
ering in relation TO the wholesomeness
of animal foods and emphasizes the
Importance of Staying animals intend
ed for food in the most humane way.

SHREDDED CORN FODDER.
Its Value aa q Dairy Ration and Bee
Producer Is Recognized BY
Many Authorities.

Corn fodder is very unsatisfactory
material to handle in the stable unless
1, has been thoroughly treated and re-
duced to fragments. Shredding obvi-
ates all the trouble and whatever
waste there is is excellent for bed
ding.
The shredded corn stalks for feeding
purposes should vary (according to
Prof. Henry according to the char
mails to which it is fed. At the Kansas
station the stover wac cut in lengths
varying from one to two inches. In
stead of most of the cut fodder being
consumed by the cows there was an
average waste of 81 per cent Of all
the cut fodder. and the conclusion was
naturally reached that the great value
of shredding fodder over the small.
sharp cut pieces is that there are no
sharp edges to cut the mouths of the
cattle eating it.
Prof. Henry, in his work IN Wis
consin. found very satisfactory results
by the use of shredded fodder. In some
OF his trials the same amount of grain
or hay was fed to each lot of COWS on
trial and he found saving of "a per
cent. of the corn forage by using it N
the shredded form. The same writer
also found that in rearing calves in
tended for beef production corn stover
should constitute a part of the rough
ness, and he also found very saiisfac-
tory gains were made in using s.over
during the fattening period of steers.
