THE IDEAL CITY.
Where Americans Fall Short of the
European Standard.

The Municipal Art Society OF New
York proposes to show at the st. Louis
exposition what n model city ought to
be, says the New York Journal. Its
plan is to have an entire block, with
full sized buildings, lampposts, street
signs, parkways, park seats, statuary.
streets and sewers, all of ideal con-
struction.
Mr.. Ruckstuhl, the representative Of
the society, remarks:
american cities seem to be satisfied
If they keep sufficiently clean to stave
off epidemics; to beauty they give little
attention. New York is the first city
to awaken to the tendency that oper-
ates in every continental city of Eu-
rope-municipal Identification"
Mr.. Ruckstuhl is unduly fatterlng.
Most American cities have rot even
reached the point of keeping them
selves clean enough to stave off cpl
denies. AS to beauty, outside of their
park systems, the thing Is not merely
neglected, it Is completely outside the
range of their imagination.
People who go abroad and see what
has been done in this direction in Par
is, Berlin and other European towns
come back with the idea that the be-
nighted foreigners do some things bet
kr than we do. But as most Ameri-
( cans never go abroad they remain to-
tally impervlous to that notion.
The model city at the st. Louis ex-
position would practically give our
people a foreign tour. 1t would show
them possibilities of which they have
never dreamed, and, as they are natu-
rally quick of apprehension, this les
son would soon bear fruit. AS the
! Centennial exhibition at Philadelphia
/ marked the end of the era of rep and
horsehair furniture and the Worlds
fair at Chicago transformed our monu-
mental architecture, so the st. Louis
exposition, with its model city, may be
expected to bring on a new epoch in
general municipal designing.
We certainly need it. No single
thing would add more to the comfort
of life.

BEES IN WINTER.
Some Wrinkles About Managing
Them In n Cellar.

Putting bees in the cellar to winter Is
management, so if you have made no
provisions to winter them out of doors
until it Is too late you can still go to
the cellar with them. This work Is done
Just at the beginning of steady winter
but If winter has progressed a little
you can yet put the bees in the cellar
Do not undertake to do so, however,
unless you have some idea of manag
ing bees in the cellar. If one was not
aware of the fact that it is difficult
matter to winter bees in cellar, he
might think that just putting them
down in the cellar was very easy and
problem.
Remember that setting hives of bees
in an ordinary cellar will not work.
and they would do much better on
their summer stand in their summer
hives. The cellar in which to keep bees
must be of an even temperature vary
Ing but a very few degrees. 40 degrees
DelllS ABOUT TlSnl. IL the cellar is not
to be used exclusively for the bees, as
much of it as is to be used must be set
off entirely to itself with a good parti-
ton. The apartment the bees are to
occupy must be in utter darkness day
and night. This part must be free from
any disturbance of any kind and must
have a ground floor or if not a ground
floor the floor should not connect with
any other.
To prepare a place for the hives, get
by scantling, place them about six:
teen inches apart on good solid foun-
dalton and tack a piece across each end
to hold them in place. Now set row of
hives crosswise on this frame. About
eight inches of space should be left be-
tween each two hives. Remove the bot
tom boards from the hives, but leave
on the lids. Set the second row of
hives on top of the first and directly
over the eight inch space between the
same. The third row may be set on
the second in the same manner and
may be carried up as high as the cell
ing. 1t takes but a small place to thus
winter large number Of colonies, says
A. IL. Duff in the Kansas Farmer.

CLEAN STREETS.
What Women Can DO In This Line
When They MIKE Up Their Minds.

When They Make Up Their Minds.
Last spring n woman who resides In
Hyde Park, Chicago, actually talked
an improvement society into existence.
She is Mrs. Joseph Twyman, promi-
nent member of the Chicago Woman's
club, and nobody can deny that she
used her linguistic talents to good ad-
vantags.
Mrs. Twyman has learned the value
Of well directed speech as a prelimi-
nary to equally well directed action.
So Mrs. Twyman energetically and
consistently talked up" the "Sooth
Park Improvement association" until
she talked it into actual being-not to
say energetic and purposeful action.
Men, women and children, university
professors and local business men,
residents and visitors, householders
and jewellers have been drawn into the
work of furthering the objects and in
terests of the association. A member
ship list of over fifty rewarded the
first two weeks of enthusiastic effort;
a large number of other admirers and
adherents have been added since that
time.
The streets, alleys and vacant lots of
South Park, rs of much of the Hyde
Park region, had been for many months
in condition best described as indie
scribable. Dust, papers, garbage, de-
bris of all kinds, have rendered them
perpetually dingy and disgusting.
The election of a man as permanent
president of the association was one of
the first particulars decided upon by
the half dozen or so of energetic dirt
Disguised South Park women who put

The establishment of permanent COM
mittees to see that the different depart
ments of the work are properly carried
on was also seen to be necessary at a
very early stage of the proceedings.
The browning point of usefulness and
businesslike wisdom was felt to be at

to engage a professional solicitor to

part Of the work." these wise students
of street, alley and vacant lot condi
lions unanimously decided "only
woman can be depended upon to take
pains to inspect and report to the
proper authorities regularly and per-
sistently."
In other words, the housekeeping and
housekeeping instinct of the South
Park women was called into public
service for the sake of South Park
cleanliness and improvement.
The result has been vast improve

and what the ladies of South Park have
done is hint to women folk In other
localities where their services in SIM

other for bones. A correct diet will not
only nourish particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food may
be, its nutriment is destroyed by lndiges-

FOOD FOR EGG PRODUCTION
Narrow, Medium and wide Rntions,
The Former the Best.

ne inc best.
Experiments were conducted during
three moulting seasons at the Rhode
Island station to test the results in egg
production of feeding a narrow, medi-
um and wide ration to laying fowls.
Ten hens were used each year in
each of three pens designated as pen
No. l medium ration), pen No. 2 mar
row ration, pen No. 3 wide ration.
The rations were the same in the tri-
ais for each. year. The medium ration
fed to pen No. l consisted of: Morning
feed, cracked corn; night feed, mash
of the following proportions: Bran, 16
pounds; cornmeal, 10 pounds; beef
scraps, s pounds; cottonseed meal, 4
pounds; linseed meal, pounds. (Nu.
tritive ratio, 1 to 81 The narrow ration
fed to pen No. consisted Of: Morning
feed, oats; night feed, the same as in
pen No. /. At noon three times per
week the hens of this pen were fed
about two and half ounces each OF
green cut bone to narrow the ration
(Nutritive ratio, to 2.S.) The wide ra.
ton fed pen No consisted of: Morn.
ing feed, cracked corn; night feed,
mash of proportions as follows: Bran,
1412 pounds; cornmeal, 16 pounds. CNu'
tritive ratio, l to S.4.)
1t was found that it cost S1.7711 to
produce ISL eggs or S0.0097 plus for
each egg in the case of pen No /. Two
hundred and fourteen eggs from pen
No. cost $1.727S to produce, or $0.0OS
per egg, while the ia eggs from pen
No. cost $1.5274, or S00134 per egg.
If results can be regarded as conclu-
sive, the narrow ration, costing less
than the medium and more than the
wide, but producing more eggs than Ell
Their of the other two at less price
per egg, is certainly the cheapest and
most satisfactory in the end.
Chemical analysis of sample of drop
pings from each pen, collected first,
air dried and then ground, showed
those from pen No. l to contain All
per cent nitrogen. Those from pen No.
contained 465 per cent nitrogen, and
the sample from pen No. 3 contained
3.74 per cent nitrogen. These results
show that the manure from the narrow
ration had the largest per cent of nitro
gen, which is another point in favor of
using narrow ration, as nitrogen is
the most valuable constituent of ma
nures in general.

HOW TO FEED WHEAT.
The Safest Way In Which to Give 1t
to Various Animals.

There are certain points to be borne
in mind when one is commencing to
feed wheat Our domesticated animals
are all very fond of it, but are not ac-
custOmed to eating it. Precautions
should consequently be observed to
prevent accidents and disease from it's
use. 1t is a matter of common observa-
ton that when full fed horses are
changed from old to new oats they are
liable to attacks of indigestion, collie
and founder. If such results follow the
change from old to new oats, how
much more likely are they to follow
radical change, such as that from oats
to wheat? For this reason wheat
should at first be fed i'm small quanti-
ties. 1t should when possible be mixed
with some other grain. and care should
be taken to prevent any one animal
from getting more than the quantity
intended for it.
These precautions are especially nee
essary when wheat is fed to horses, as
these animals are peculiarly liable to
collie and other disturbances Of the d.
gestive organs, accompanied or follow
ed by laminitis. Cattle, sheep and hogs
frequently crowd each other from the
feeding trOughs, in which case some in
dividuals obtain more than their share
and may bring on serious or fatal at
tacks of Indigestion.
The best form in which to feed wheat
is to roll or grind it into a coarse meal.
1t may then be fed alone or mixed with
cornmeal or ground oats. When ground
fine, it is pasty and adheres to the
teeth, gums and cheeks. so that it is
not so readily masticated or eaten. In
the form of a coarse meal it is relished
by all animals, it is in a condition to be
attacked by the digestive processes
whether thoroughly masticated or not,
and in most cases it gives the best re-
suits. DR.. Gilbert appears to have OBJ
tanned better results from whole than
from ground wheat when fed to sheep.
Sheep farmers may therefore expert
ment with whole wheat. but wheat
meal will certainly be found to give
better results with all other kinds of
animals.-Dr. ID. Il. Salmon.

80 miles at the price 1t costs the farm.
err to carry them one mile. Good
roads would reduce the cost Of this
hauling by team nearly two-thirds, they
say, as the same power moves three
tons on good road that will move one
ton over billy and muddy roads.
Although we have not had experience
with prairie roads In muddy times, we
have had little chance to know some
thing about roads in the south at such
times and can readily believe their
statements are not exaggerated, but we
think the remedy must finally be found
in the use of trolley roads to carry
freight from the farms to the markets,
where the traffic is large enough to war;
rant it. They also say that If this ex-
pense of transportation to the railroads
was reduced by well built permanent
highways through every county and
township in the United States it would
increase the value of farms and farm
property at least $5,OOO,000, which
we think Is not an extravagant estl-
mate.
