WATERPROOF WASH.

Hious to Water.

Use two washes for covering the sur.
face, one of CASTLE soap and one OF
alum and water. The proportions are
three-quarters of a pound of soap to
one gallon of water, and half pound
of alum to four gallons of water, both
substances to be perfectly dissolved in
water before being used. The wall;
should be perfectly clean and dry, and
the temperature of the air not above
5Odegrees Fahrenheit when the compo-
sitions are applied. The first, or soap
wash, should be laid on when boiling
hot, with a fiat brush, taking care to
form froth on the brick work. This
wash should remain "a hours, so as to
become dry and hard before the sec
ond, or alum wash is applied, which
should be done in the same manner as
the first. The temperature of this
wash, when applied, should be GO or 20
degrees Fahrenheit, and this also
should remain "a hours before a sec.

All want Improved Hogs.

Breeders of pure-bred hogs say that
they cannot keep up with the present
demand from farmers who are ambi.
tious to improve the quality of their
droves. Hogs coming TO market now
are much better in breed and quality
than they were some years ago, but
there is STU room for improvement,
and farmers are realizing that ii costs
no more to feed good hog than q
poor one. In fact, it costs much less;

gotten in prime killing condition with
any amount Of feed.--Midland Farmer.

COUNTRY HOME COMFORTS.
How to Obtain Some Very Pretty
House and Piazza Effects mt
Nominal Expense.

In furnishing home variety OF
pretty effects can be gained by small
seats which hug the corners closely.
Among the latest are those with
single ornamental end of fine etched
wood cut out in appropriate shape.
The couch is low, well cushioned
and equipped with some three or four
pillows of any spring-lil<e material
which matches the seat, while the un-
ornamented end is finished simply
with a frill that falls from the cush-
ion to the floor, the entire length of
the seat.
This one tall end may be an at
tractive feature of those skilled
in typography, but to be at it's best
it should be made" of holly or bass
| wood, cut in sections, and then joined
| to prevent warping. IL desired, on
the inside of this end there can be
a shelf for books and the like. The
design may be outlined and then
burnt in. 1t may have n floral dec
Grafton, pastoral scene or an en-
bellishment of cupids and blossoms,
taking care according to the rules of
this art that if the background is
dark the design should be light, or
reverse the picture leaving the
ground work light.
4 AS for coverings there are charm
/ ing stuffs in cotton tapestries, liberty
cretonnes, sateen quill and the pretty
Normandy dimities. Any of these look
well, as their flower effects are gay
and brilliant, while the cushions may
be made of Priscilla silk in any of
the solid and delicate tints preferred.
Among the striking novelties for
country homes is the Darby and Joan
chair, a low rocker for two, on the
one foundation. The wood of heavy
make is painted in a good tone OF
forest green, the rush seats in bril-
liant tints of red. These odd pieces
are severe in form without ornamen-
tation of any kind. They are in diff.

THE FARMERS WIFE.
wisconsin Legislator Proposes =
Plan Having Tendency to
Emnncipntc Her.

Modern invention and scientific re-
search have done much to nghten the
burdens of the farmer. Inventive skill
has not only facilitated the opera
tions of husbandry by supplying la
bor-saving machinery, but it has
adapted many of the conveniences
and comforts of the city to farm life.
But inventive genius has done very
little for the farmers wife. 1t has
relieved her of buttermaking through
the multiplication of the modern
creamery, but in doing so it has also
diverted the profits of this industry
to the farmers pocket, whereas the
proceeds of buttermaking formerly
were conceded by custom and prece-
dent to the farmers wife.
The farmer has the telephone and
free mail delivery, and he rides all
day long on sulky plow or on a
reaper that cuts the grain and binds
IL into sheaves. l. is doubtless only
question of time when machines
will husll his corn and dig his pota-
toes. But the drudgery of the weeks
washing and ironing is still with the
farmers wife. While the lord of the
fields rides in indolent comfort in a
| sulky plow the wife bends over a
washtub or wrestles with the hot
irons two days out of every week.
A promise of belated relief for the
farmers wife is seen in the PROPOSE
tion of Representative Frost, of Wis
consin, to establish steam laundry
at every crossroads in the state, to
which the farmers washing and iron
ing may be brought every week, AS
| the state is dotted all over with
creameries and cheese factories, it
would be an easy matter TO operate
steam laundries in connection with
them.
There is nothing impossible Or vi
sionary about Mr.. Frost's plan. II
embodies the principle of cooperation
which has already been successfully
applied to nearly every form of ag'
ricultural activity, from the old grist
and sawmills to the modern cream
ery. Divest the farmers household
of this form of drudgery and then in
troduce in the kitchen some of the
modern labor-saving devices that are
used in hotels and the life of the
farmers wife will begin to approach
that standard of ease and comfor'
long since attained by the farmel
himself.-Chicago Record-Herald.

until the hens have had a run outside,
and as result their eggs will hatch
better.
In connection with the second meth
cd unless the farmer has brooding
house, which permits of his being in
dependent of outside temperature, he
will have to content himself with in
cubator and outside brooder. His out
side brooder is placed on the rapidly
growing grass, and with proper care
and food the young chicks will be found
to make famous progress.
At the experimental farms when the
hens became broody they were set in
wooden boxes placed in vacant pens in
q house. The wooden nest boxes con-
tanned no bottoms and had hinged
door in front. The nests were made
of dry lawn clippings, which were
found to answer the purpose much bet
ter than cut straw. Grain, grit and
drink water were constantly before
the sitters. On being made, the nests
were thoroughly busted with disin-
fecting powder, and so were the sitters
before being put on the nests. 1t was
found beneficial to place two or three
china eggs in the nests as arranged

wide, long arms held in place by a
seat of stout crash of striped and

For draperies the top ruffie is
again to the front. The windows
when treated this way have first

are looped back or slightly parted in
the middle. At the top of the wood
work hangs long cream-colored

FARM POULTRY GROWING.
Manager of the Canadian Ex-

The position of the farmer with re-
gard to poultry is entirely different
from that of the specialist with large
plant. TO the former such informa-
ton as the following from a late re-
port of A. Gs Gilbert, manager of the
Canadian experimental farms, is espe-
cially directed:
Farmers have given increased at
tention during the past few years to
artificial Matching and rearing of
chickens, which have been pursued by
two methods:
BY filling the incubator and begin

early March.
BY dcferring Matching operations

NEST BOX FOR SITTING HENS.


and allow the broody hens to sit on
them for a day or two. The sitters
having proved reliable, the china eggs
were removed and replaced by the val
liable ones. In the morning the doors
of the nest boxes, which had been
closed from the previous day, were
opened and the sitters allowed oppor-
tunity to get out for food, water and
n short run. In early spring, when
the weather is likely to be cold, the
sitter should return to her nest inside
of ten minutes. The foregoing details
are all important in the successful
Matching of chickens by hens.
Late April and May hen-hatch
chickens did the better at the Cana
dian farms. In the case of hen-ha tche6
chickens the latter were permitted to
remain in their nest for "a to SO hours,
when, with the mother hen, they were
placed in Slated coop on the grass
outside. The coop was so arranged that
1t could be securely closed at night,
while ventilation was secured.
Through the Stats the chicks could
run on. the grass outside, while the
hen remained inside. On the floor OF
the coop was sand to the depth of two
inches. On taking the mother hen
from her nest she was given food and
wa ter. She would be more likely to
brood the chicks oontentedly after be.
ing fed than if hungry or thirsty. How
important it is to have early chicks
carefully brooded is well known to all
experienced breeders. The rationi
adopted werestale bread crumbs, fol.
lowed by stale bread soaked in milk
and squeezed dry; this for day or
two. Crushed corn was not given un.

was not fed until the twelfth or four.
teenth day. AS the chicks grew, a
mash composed of shorts, corn meal,
stale bread and small quantity OF
prepared meal WAS mixed with boiling
skim milk, allowed TO cool, and was
given three OF fourtimes per day. Milk
and water were both furnished for
drink.
