HINTS FOR FARMERS
Wells For Tile bitches.

Among the most essential things in
the construction of tile bitches is a
good outlet A ditch may be dug and
tiled all right and do the work for
which it was made all right for short
time, and then it begins to fail, and
when investigation is made to find the
cause nine times out of ten it is found
that the tiles have filed up for some
distance. This is frequently caused by
hogs and other stock. Now, this can
be better prevented than remedied.
Dig well at the mouth five or six
and wall it with two inch lumber. Cut
a hole for the tile and let the tile pro-
ject few inches in the box, or well.
Cut a space on the lower side of the
box for overflow. Now you have your
tile where you can go any time and
see if all is right. Nothing can enter
the tile to choke it. Clean the mud,
ETC., out well as often as necessary to
keep it below the tile This can gen.
orally be done during dry times. More
than one ditch can be emptied into one
well all right. We have ditch and
well constructed on this plan, and over
300 rods of tile empty into the well,
and we expect to run another ditch in
to the same we'll. This is not an ex-
pensive arrangement, and we would
recommend it highly. We consider
this one of the best things we ever
learned in connection with farming
and expect to adopt this plan until we
have found something better.-W. T.
Burford in Practical Farmer.

Paris Green.

The purity of paris green can be
quite readily and fairly accurately
tested by dissolving it in strong am
monia water. If pure, all of the paris
green will dissolve, the solution turn
ing deep blue color. Undissolved
sediment indicates impurities or adul-
'teration. Another test is to place
little of the paris green between two
pieces of window glass and rub them
together If adulterated with lime,
barium sulphate or similar white ma
terials, it will appear, to turn white in
places. Paris green of good quality is
intensely bright green and uniform.
When adulterated, the green loses
something of it's intensity and is gray
ish green and is net always Uniform

An Ancient Easter Custom.

An ancient custom once universal in
England on Easter Monday and Tues
day is that known as heaving. lifting
or raising. On the Monday. the mems
heaving day, women were raised three
times in a chair, after which they were
kissed and liberated. On Tuesday the
women lifted the men in the same man
ner, but it was usual for the men to
give q small sum of money for leave
and license to depart. In early times
the practice prevailed among all ranks,
and in a roll of the reign of Edward L.
is a record of payment to certain ladies
and maids of honor for lifting that KING
in his bed at Easter. The usage COM
memorated the resurrection OF our
Lord.-London Standard.

OF district No. 2 for whatever sum this
