Siloiup Sugar Reets.

1t is the custom in some localities to
haul sugar beets to the factory if pos
sible when harvested, and if it is not
possible to do this they are gathered
and placed in long ricks or piles on the
surface Of the ground. The base Of
these ricks or piles is from to 31a feet,
with height of to feet, tapering to-
ward the top. Along each side of these
ricks several burrows are run with a
stirring plow in order to loosen the
dirt. The ricks are then completely
covered with this dirt by the aid of
shovels. This covering is put on TO the
depth of about 6 inches, occasionally
air spaces or ventilators being left on
the tops of the ricks, which are usually
made by the use of tiling or small elon-
gated wooden boxes or simply straw,
the purpose being to prevent fermenta-
ton.
Storing the beets in this way is call
ed siloing, and the ricks or piles are
called silos. In case severe cold wealth
er comes on, these silos are covered
with straw manure, straw or some
thing of that sort, and then an addi-
tional amount is thrown on the straw
covering. In this way it has been
found that the beets will keep in very
good condition until the last of Janu-
ary if necessary

ed more freely the farther we Travelled
down into the interior. At Falaise we
exchanged the train for small omnibus
which bore the name "Noireau" conspic-
uously on its door. At length we started
off on the last stage of our journey.
Finally our omnibus was jolting and
rumbling down some steep and narrow
streets, lighted by oil lamps swung across
them. Only at the inn where we stop
ped was there anything like life. l woke
up Minima from her deep and heavy
sleep.
"We are here at Noireaur said. eve

The door was opened before the child

bystanders gathered round us as we
alighted, and watched our luggage put
down from the roof Minima was lean
ing against me, half asleep. A narrow
vista of tall houses lay to the right and
left, lost in impenetrable darkness. The
strip Of sky overhead was black with
midnight.
"Noireau" 1 asked in tone of inter
rogation.
Eyes, madame" responded a chorus OF
voices.
"Carry me to the house of Monsieur
Emile Perrier, the avocat," l said, speak
ing slowly and distinctly.
The words, simple as they were, seem
ed to awaken considerable excitement
The landlady threw up her hands, with
an expression Of astonishment. Was il

Dairy Clearing

Those people who consider milking
irlSsome will never make good dairy
men.
1t is not always the man with the
biggest herd of cows who clears the
most money from his dairy.
Gilt-edged butter is more to be de-
sired on the average customers plate
than any delicacy of the season.
The dairy woman who churns before
sun up in the morning often makes
firm grained butter without the use of
ice.
The reason some farmers never ex-
tract the latent gold in dairy cows is
that they persist in looking to the grain
and corn fields for it.
1t is a parody ON cleanliness to try to
strain filth out of milk when it might
have been obviated by the exercise of
the most ordinary precautions.
Despite all of the laws to the con-
~trary, SKINNED cheese is yet sold for
"full cream" and oleomargarine for
real butter. Where is the remedy?
While 1t pays to raise good hogs in
conjunction with the dairy. it never has
or never will pay the mandatory to
keep the swine quartered near cheese
factory or rcreamery.-Exchange.

Changing Mixers.

What effect does change of mixers
have on the yield of cows? This de-
pends both on the cows and on the
mixers. A comparison of the daily av-
erage of nine cows was recently made
in the Kansas Agricultural College; the
average yield both before and after a
change of mixers showed that there
was practically no difference. In both
cases only one out of the three regular
mixers was changed At election time
last November all the regular mixers
were absent from three to seven milk
ings, and the regular routine of work
was of course more broken up than If
only one mixer had changed The to-
tai yield for the herd was considera-
bly, less for this period, and the yield
in individual cases dropped nearly one
half in seven milkings. The more ner-
vous the cows the more they were af-
fected. A continual change of mixers
would mean more or less irregularity in
the manner of handling the herd, and is
not advisable Again, good mixers are
scarce, and the change is likely to pro-
duce a poorer for the better hand.

"MADAME UNLOCKED THE DOOR,"

81 wish to go to the house of Monsieur
Emile Parrier, the avocat,' / said.
But whilst they still clustered round
Minima and me, giving no sign of COM
pliance with my request, two persons
thrust themselves through the circle. The
one was a man, in threadbare brown
great coat, with a large woolen comfort
er wound several times about his neck;
and the other woman, in an equally
shabby dress, who spoke to me in broken
English.
''Mees, l am Madame Perrier, and this
is my husband" she said; "come on. The
letter was here only an hour ago; but all
is ready. Come on; come on"
She put her hand through my arm, and
took hold of Minima's hand, as if claim
ing both of us. A dead silence had fall
en- upon the little crowd, as if they were
trying to catch the meaning Of the Eng
lish words. But as she pushed on, lead
ing us both, litter for the first time ran
from lip to lip. l glanced back, and saw
Monsieur Perrier, the avocat, hurriedly
putting our luggage on a wheelbarrow.
and preparing to follow us with it along
the dark street.
l was too bewildered yet to feel any
astonishment. We were in France, in a
remote part of France, and l did not
know what Frenchmen would or would
not do. We stopped at last opposite the
large, handsome house, which stood in
the front, in the photograph l had seen
in London.

disappeared round the corner of the
house, walking softly, as if careful not
to disturb the household. At last whe
reappeared round the corner, Carrying a
candle, which flickered in the wind. Not
word was spoken by him or his wife as
the latter conducted us towards him. We
were to enter by the back door, that
was evident. She led US into a dimly
lighted room, where l could just make
out what appeared to be carpenters

ing under it.
'It is a leetle cabinet work of my hus-
band," said Madame Perrier; "our cham
Der is above, and the chamber for you
and leetle mees is there also. But the
school is not there. Come on, mees."
We went down the broad gravel walk,
with the pretty garden at the side of us,
where fountain was tinkling and splash
! ing busily in the quiet night. But we
passed the front of the house behind it
! without stopping at the door. Madame

Feeding and Watering Fowls.
Where there is scratching shed con-
nected with the poultry-house. all of
the feeding should be done there. If,
however, this valuable addition can not
be had, and the feeding and watering
must be done in the roosting room, some
provision should be- made so that the
food will be neither wasted or soiled
by the fowls, says the indianapolis
News. Crates are inexpensive, and are
readily constructed of light material.
The Stats should be of smooth lumber
and placed so that the fowls can get
their heads in and out without diff
Guilty. They should be open in front and
on both sides, if placed against the
walls Of the house, or, if set in the
open space, they should be open on both
sides and both ends. Each crate should
have solid floor of boards and hing
ed top, so that the pans of food and
water may be placed in position with
little trouble, and the crates be readily
cleaned. If the house is so small that

The Surpriae PARTY.

One day Janey's mother said: Every
one is always giving dear Janey beau
tiful presents, and planning nice times
for Janey. 1 do wish my Janey would

And Janey looked up at her mamma,
and smiled and said, Dear, precious
mamma, will plan beautiful surprise
for Josie and Joe."
And mamma said: "That is right,
you lovable child. l want you to think
of pleasant surprises for Josey and
Joe."
And dear little Janey ran out into the
daisy field, and she said to the daisies:
oh, tell me what shall do, little
daisies! Help me to plan beautiful,
wonderful surprise for Josey and Joe" !"
And the daisies whispered to Janey.
Janey pretended the daisies could

her hands, and said, "All right, you
sweet, little daisies, l hear what you

The Cyclists Drowning Trick.

The Austrian Tourists Club publishes
comical story in its paper. A sort Of
goose fair was being held few days
ago in St. George. at the Ammersee
Brewery, attended by many persons
living in the adjacent villages and ham
lets.
a cyclist passing by dismounted to
join the merry skittle players. His jokes
and gayety delighted everybody. He
won two geese, which he presented to
the company for dinner. He also per-
formed some artistic turns upon his
cycle which provoked loud applause
He then proposed to show the party his
master trick, conjuring feat la
Bosco, and requested one of the corn
pany to lend him hat, which he passed
round, begging the loan of watches,
rings, purses. chains and knives. These
offerings were literally contributed by
the confiding countrymen, and then he
rode about two hundred yards away
and manipulated something unseen
with the hat.
Returning at great pace, he emptied
a shower Of fine sand into the upturned
faces Of the crowd, threw the empty
hat at them and left at full speed with
the valuables.

Preserving Eggs.

Numerous methods of preserving eggs
are in use, says Field and Farm The
idea of all of them is to keep out the
air so that oxygen decay may be arrest
ed for considerable length of time, es-
pecially If the eggs are perfectly fresh
at the start and are kept in cool, dark
place. The standard method most used
by spectators and dealers is to put
eggs in lime water. The process is as
follows, this recipe having been widely
sold at So under pledge of secrecy. Take
two gallons of water, twelve pounds of
unslaked lime and four pounds of salt,
or in that proportion, according to the
quantity of eggs to be preserved. Stir
several times daily and then let stand
until the liquid has settled and is per-
fectly clear. Draw or carefully dip off
the clear liquid; leaving the sediment
at the bottom. Take five ounces each
of baking soda, cream of tartar. salt
peter and an ounce of alum. Pulverize
and mix these and dissolve in one gal
Ion Of boiling water and add to the
mixture twenty gallons of pure lime
water. This will about fill a cider bar
rel. Put the eggs in carefully so as
not to crack any of the shells. letting
the water always stand an inch above
the eggs, which can be done by placing
barrel head little smaller upon them
and weighing it. This amount of
liquid will preserve $50 dozen eggs. 1t
is not necessary to wait to get full
barrel or smaller package of eggs. but
can be put in at any time if fresh. The
same liquid should be used only once.

streets were narrow. A small .iouse
stood before US; and madame unlocked
the door. We were conducted into a small
kitchen. There was an oil lamp here.
Madame's face was Illuminated by 1t.
There was not a trace of refinement or
culture about her, not even the proyerb-
ial taste of a Frenchw woman in dress. The
kitchen was picture of squalid dirt and
neglect. The few cooking utensils were
scattered about in disorder. The stove
before which we sat was rusty. Could
| be dreaming of this filthy dwelling and
this slovenly woman? No; it was all too
real for me to doubt their existence for
an instant.
She was pouring out some cold tea ints
two little cups, when Monsieur Perrier
made his appearance, his face begrimed
and his shaggy hair uncombed. He stood
in the doorway, rubbing his hands, and
gazing at us unf1inchingly with the hard
stare of Norman peasant, whilst he
spoke in rapid, uncouth tones to his wife.

place at all. Oh! whatever shall l do:
Shall l have to stay here four years?"
