Poultry and Small Fruits,

That there is good profit in raising
poultry In connection with small fruits
has been repeatedly proved; on the
other hand, many failures have result
ed solely because provision has not
been made to keep the fowls from the
fruit plots. If this Is done there will
be no trouble in working both indus
tries to advantage, for the time when
the fruit needs the most attention is
the period when the fowls need least.
In working this combination it is a
good plan to raise poultry largely for
the sale Of the carcass in the fall and
winter production Of eggs; then, If the
young chicks are hatched early in the
spring, the work Of the poultry will
interfere but little with the necessary
attention which must be given the
small fruits. BY proper arrangement
Of poultry yards and runs and the
small fruit plots there should be no
trouble in keeping them apart. For a
man who must handle a small farm
alone there is no better combination
than that Of poultry and small fruits.

MS uOLne, w uite
Hall, in Madison
County, Kentucky.
His demise was
due to general eX-
haustion.
The stirring life
which General Clay
led had begun to
tell on him in late
years. He believed
that a conspiracy
to assassinate him
had been formed
and some years
ago fortified his
home at White

life Of exclusion
that ended only a

While we argue that in these modern
days woman should demand horse
that when she starts for given point
her clothes won't get out of style be-
fore she gets there.
The farm implement or machine
which will earn 20 per cent. on its cost
yearly, as very many will, is far
safer investment than bank stocks
on deposits. We must learn to do busi-
ness with the farm.
The next time you purchase bran ex-
anime it carefully to see whether it
contains whole weed seeds. There was
sent to Wisconsin last year a car of
bran that contained $4,000 seeds to
the pound, says an exchange. Think
Of putting the manure from ten tons
Of that bran on a field!
The young man in the country Of
frugal habits can have q larger bank
account at the end Of the year on a
wage of $500, with board and laundry
thrown in, than can the city fellow
who gets wage of 5000 per annum.
Nor will it be necessary for the young
man In the country to deny himself
any Of the genuine pleasures Of life
in order to do this.
There Is less demand every year
for the extra large overfatted hogs
that have taken two years to reach
maturity. What is wanted for pro.
fitable feeding Is thrifty pig, that in
six or seven or eight months growth
will average pound of pork day.
This can usually be made at a profit.
| The heavier hogs cost more to keep,
and the pork is neither so good, nor
will it now sell so well, as pork that
weighs 200 pounds or less per car
cass.
A good way to get rid of potato bugs
is to poison them by the use of paris
green and water at the rate of one
pound of the poison to one hundred
gallons of water. Another way is
to use the paris green with cheap flour
or plaster, using about one pound Of
green to one barrel of either Of the
latter. This should be busted on the
leaves early in the morning when they
are moist. London purple may be
used in the place of paris green. but
as 1t is more liable to burn the leaves
when used in water, one pound Of
quicklime should be put in the water
for each pound Of london purple used;
but the london purple, in such a case,
should be used at the rate of one
pound to seventy gallons Of water.

Tanning the Cheetah In India.

The cheetah is tied in all directions,
principally from a thick grummet Of
rope around his loins, while a hood
fitted over his head effectually blinds
him. He is fastened on a strong cot
bedstead, and the keepers and their
wives and families reduce him to sub
mission by starving him and keeping
him awake. His head is made to face
the village street, and for an hour at
a time several times a day his keepers
make pretended rushes at him and
wave cloths, slaves and other articles
In his face. He is talked to continually,
and women's tongues are believed to
be the most effective antisoporifics. No
created being could resist the effects of
hunger, want of sleep and feminine
scolding, and the poor cheetah becomes
piteously, abjectly tame.-'Beast and
