Banks.

The largest banks in New York are,
for all practical purposes, corporation
banks. Some of them frankly state
that they do not care for small GUS
toners, by which is meant depositors
whose accounts average from n to
twenty thousand dollars; and all OF
them cultivate principally the business
Of the larger corporations and Of out.
of-town banks. These features OF their
policy entail certain important results.
It is a we'll known fact that deposits
of a small or moderate size are more
stable than millionaire" accounts,
which are likely to be drawn dow
very rapidly when money is high. Only
a short time ago one of the big banks
was notified, an hour before closing for
the day, that a check for $5,OOO,OOO had
been drawn against a large account.
With "a little skirmishing,' SO a re-
liable financial paper states, 1.-THE situa-
ton was met in a few minutes" but
the incident illustrates the conditions
under which the operations OF sucn
institutions must be conducted. The
same tendencies exist also in the case
of the deposits by country banks. at
the approach OF anything resembling
a panic these are Withdrawn. with
great rapidity; so that they have been
justly called the explosive element
of our banking system. It is evident,
therefore, that more than ordinary con-
servatism will be required it the
largest banks are to exercise a steady
ing influence in times of actual OF inn
pending danger.-Atlantic Monthly.

Profitable Shipments.

0A4RAAAOAAt6s
The fowl that is in demand is the
clean, yellow leg and feSn one. A man
not posted in these matters decides to
ship a box of live or dressed poultry,
to the market. He has yellow legs,
black legs and feathered legs in his
consignment. He sends them and gets
bis returns, which we will say, for il
tustration, is nine cents per pound, and
he looks up the quotations and finds
that the market is paying nine to
eleven cents per pound.
His neighbor. who has given the
matter more attention, has selected a
yellow leg and skin breed. He ships
at the same time and his returns are
eleven and may be twelve cents per
pound. He tells our friend about it,
and the question arises in our friends
mind, "Why didn't I get eleven or
twelve cents instead Of nine cents per
pound?"
/ will tell you why he didn't. Every
farmer knows that if he ships a barrel
Of apples, half Of them good and the
balance specked or rotten, he doesn't
get the top price, but If he ships a bar
rel of selected fruit. returns with the
highest quotation, providing the mar
ket is not overstocked. He must raise
something that everybody does not
raise, and there IS no danger of Owe
stocking the market with first class
goods. First class goods III always in
demand; the same in the poultry bust
ness as any other business. ]. Pat
terson, Jr., in The Cultivator.

Dees Annoyed by skunks.


Sometimes a colony Of bees will be-
come u~naccountably cross, keeping q
heavy guard at the hive entrance, and
attacking any one who goes anywhere
near them. In such case the cause OF
this irritability frequently proves to
have been q skunk. They sometimes
annoy the bees in summer, but we have
usually found m0st Troublesome
in the fall.
One of our apriaries in particular has
for years apparently been a regular
stamping ground for skupks, and we
have killed them off by the dozen dur
ing the fall months. After the weather
becomes quite cool their depredations
are more disastrous, as their scratching
on the hive causes the bees to fly out III
large numbers, and those not devoured
perish by being chilled. Good, large
swarrls are sometimes ruined in this
manner. A steel trap is the surest way
of Kidding ones self of such a NUS
ance. We attach the trap to a stout
pole, or scantling, about fifteen feet
long, as they are not likely to walk off
with that, and set it near the hive en-.
trance. We do not often use bait, but
last spring after three traps had been
successfully avoided several nights in
succession, while our chickens disap.
peared like magic, we used scraps OF
raw meat as bait, and with results
We take hold Of the end of the pole
and carefully hobble his skunkshiT
down to the brook, and all is oyer in
a few minutes, and with no odor, such
as is sure to be caused if they arc
killed by clubbing Or stoning.-Hilas D
Davis, in American Cultivator.

From D~ublin-comes a letter from a
correspondent commenting on our notes
of a few days ago on Thackeray's visit
to Ireland. There is,' says he, "a
story which, If true, as ! believe It to
be, is a solace to the minds OF Irish
men who have found it hard to forget
or forgive the Battle of limerick
When on his first visit to Ireland,
Thackeray took a drive on q Dublin
car some distance into the country.
MiIestones had recently been erected
along the roads, withsthe letters G. F.
o. distances being measured from the
general post office. Thackeray was I'M
aware OF this and in his thirst for
knowledge asked the carman what
the letters meant. THE prompt reply
was. Goa preserve O'Connell:' Thack-

The Life That Counts.

The life that counts is a life on a high
level, yet full of helpful healing sympathy
for all life on its lowest levels. 1t is the
first debt which we owe 10 our fellow men
in this age. The man who has faith ac-
cepts the uncertainty of life as the conse-
quence of its larger significance; he can
not interpret it, because it means so much;
he cannot trace its lines tnrough to the
end, because it has no end; 1t runs into
Gods eternity. Something better is COM
ing out of it than worldly fame or wealth
or power. He is not making himself. God
is making him, and that after a model
which eye hath not seen. He can toll
away at his work, not knowing whether
he is to see its results now or not. but
knowing that God viii not let it be
wasted. There is a satisfaction in being
appreciated. in feeling that others ac-
knowledge our worth or our power, and
in gaining that praise from the world that
is food to so many or US. But the man
or woman whose lives are not on the high
est plane are those who take up their bur-
dens without finching, or without pros
pect of reward, who do not look for the
p,audits of pit and gallery; are uncon-
eerned as to the audience so long as they
pay their part well, and in faith and
patience, live the life where they belong
even though their heavens fall.-Annie L.

Killed on His way Home.

William Brown, a well-known resi-
dent Of Somerville, was found with his
skull crushed near the Hamilton street
crossing of the New Jersey Central
Railroad. He died without regaining
consciousness. There is some mystery
surrounding the mans death. He lived
a half block from where he was found,
and was returning home zeal mid
night. 1t is not known how he came
to be on the railroad. The side Of
his head was crushed, but there was
no other bodily injury to indicate that
he had been struck or dragged by a
passing train. A portion of the hat he
wore was found on the Bridge street
crossing, a block from the body.

Scattering Blessings.

There are men we always like to meet
because they always have a kind word
and a warm greeting, because they do not
say hateful things, because they forgive
and forget, and because they always throw
oil on troubled waters. 1t is our business
to refresh and cheer, to perform angel
ministries, to reach out the helping hand,
to get under burdens to assuage sorrow,
to do name,ess acts of kindness and love,
to conciliates instead of tearing open
wounds, to heal instead of wound, TO play
IN heartstrings with the soft, tender touch
of the skillful harpist, to give the cup of
cold water, to lift out of the slough of
despond, to speak the word of cheer by
the wayside. Thus our very soul will be-
come a fountain of life and JOY and glad
ness, will become more and more the domi-
nant mood Of our life.
Life is a constant giving out. Like the
flower it emits fragrance. Like the sun
it gives light. Doing noble deeds, she'd
ding blessings around, difusing light, like
an oasis in a desert. refreshing weary
liyes.-Rev. A. C. WEIGH.

Cats kin Quail and Rabh;ts

So many rabbits and quail are killed
by house cats running loose in the
woods that the New Jersey hunters
want to have a law passed allowing
cats found in the woods to be shot.
The present law provides that any per-
son allowing a dog to run wild shall
pay a fine of $40. Cats are said to be
more destructive of game than dogs,
foxes, minks or hawks.

AGRICULTURAL
Management sd MiIk Cellars

Management of MILK Cellars.
The majority of cellars are very i'm.
properly ventilated, and the length OF
time for keeping milk therein varies on
nearly all farms. The success In the
creameries is due to the observance OF
a proper degree of temperature, n
until farmers become more observing
of that point they will continue to have
difficulties. One Of the obstacles is I'M
cleanliness in the stables as well as in
the milk houses. The regulation OF the
churning is as nothing compared with
the essential requisites OF properly
keeping the places and utensils in the
best condition. The water, however,
Is the source Of the greatest danger.
1t has been demonstrated by actual
experiment that the germs Of disease
existing in impure water are carried
without change into the milk, where
they rapidly multiply and cause decom-
position.

SIGNS OF RAIN.
Twill surely rain

Twill surely rain
If the SCOT falls, the squirrels sleep,
The spiders from their cobwebs creep,
Loud quack the ducks, the peacocks cry,
The distant hills look clear and nigh,
While busy flies disturb the kline.
Puss on the hearth, with velvet paws,
Sits wiping off her whiskered jaws;
The dog, quite altered in his taste,
Quits mutton bones on grass to feast;
From all these signs I see WITH sorrow

Little Strangers on the BOG.

A totally unexpected sensation made
a great stir among the nearly two
hundred italian pickers on the cram
berry boys of the Atlantic Cranberry
Association between Elwood and Wey-
u AT almost the same minute two
OF the women pickers became the
mothers OF baby boys, and there was
great rejoicing among their fellows.
The little strangers were given the
best of care with the facilities at hand.
and in half an hour their mothers had
resumed work, losing but a half bushel
of berries in their days count. That
was made up for them by the company,
with a little contribution besides. The
two new boys were named for Presi-
dent John J. Albertson and Secretary
John T. Irving, of the company.

1t has been found that the late storm
played havoc with the corn in the vi
entity of Burlington, and farmers say
that at least fifty per cent. of tho
crop will be total loss. Much of the
grain was green and still in the milk
when the stalks were broken and
blown to the ground, and the ears are
rotting or molding. The stalks being
on the ground. the cost of cutting has
