on q trellis of this kind than on brush
or wire netting. We have no difficulty
in coaxing them to climb to the top or
beyond. The vines never burn on this
trellis as they will on a wire n dur

puts them out of business, cut the
strings loose at the four corners of the
frame, pull the vines, and the entire
mass of vines and Irvine can be slipped
off the frame in two minutes and car
ried away to be burned on the rub
Dish heap. Anyone who has tried to
clear the old vines from wire netting
will appreciate this easier way of dis
posing of them.-Rural New Yorker.

PULPIT AND PEW.

The Rev. ii. p. Perkins, of Pao-ting-

seen before in that field in north
China.
Rev. r. Calvin Dobson,, a Presbyte-

Plant Louse Destruction.

Lice may be killed on plants by
sleeping one pound of tobacco stems
in five gallons of water, sleeping until
the water gets to be color Of strong
tea. Strain and then apply the liquid
over and under the leaves by means of
a small syringe. This application will
be found as effective as fumigating.
It should be applied before the insects
are seen, rather to prevent their COM
ing than to destroy them; if allowed
to get a f~oothold, it is often a hard
struggle to dislodge their. Plants may
also be syringed with clear water,
and then sprinkled lightly, all over,
with the fine tobacco dust purchased
from any tobacco store, at a very small
cost. This will effectually prevent any
injury from lice, also, if made in time,

Burmese women and Glrl..

Not long ago Lord Dufferin re-
marked that the Burmese are the only
eastern nation among whom women
are publicly respected, honored and
obeyed. Woman in Burmah has al
ways had fairplay; she has been bound
by no ties, and she has had perfect
freedom to make for herself Just such
. life as she thinks best fitted for her.
She has been allowed to change as
her world changed, and she has lived
In a very real world-a world of stern
facts, not fancies. Boys and girls grow
up together, but with the school days
comes a division. In great towns there
are regular schools for girls; but in
the villages, while the boys are in the
monasteries, the girls are learning to
weave and herd cattle, are drawing
water and collecting frewood. The
daughters of better class people, such
as merchants and clerks and advo-
Gates, do not, of course, work at field
labor.-Cincinnati Iinquiper.

IMPROVE THE HERD.
Some Hints for Dairymen Which, If
Followed, Will cad to Fortune
and Reputation.

Every cows milk should be weighed
night and morning and a record, kept
of the same. Get a spring balance
that weighs 80 pounds; set back the
dial the weight of the milk pail; make
a blackboard at the barn ruled to ac-
commodate a weeks milk record. The
mixer then has only to hang his milk
pail on the scales and record the re-
suit on the board-not two seconds
of extra work. Each week remove
the record to your dairy account book.
You will be surprised how the cows
will vary from your estimate of them.
At the end of the year many a cow that
required two pals to hold her milk
when flush will be found behind her
more modest sister who kept ever
lastingly at it. Now you can begin
TO Gull.
Discard every COW that goes dry on
her own notion. While every cow
should be dry six or eight weeks pre-
1ious to calving, she should be forced
dry; she ought to be giving at least
16 pounds per day when you start in
to dry her up. Discard the cow with
short teats; she takes too much time
to milk; likewise the COW with a dainty
appetite. The profitable dairy cow.
should eat everything in sight. Every
year select the two most promising
heifers to bring up to take the place
Of the two poorest cows. Sires may
be bred to their own daughters, but
not to their granddaughters. A
change of sire is necessary at this
time. Get the very best you can buy.
Remember he is half the herd, and
IT he is only common your herd will
go backward instead of forward.
Never breed to anything but a thor
oughbred sire and, above all, don't
cross BREED. w. Helme, in Farm and
| Home.

There has been a process patented
in Germany for making 'meat extract"

Der of products on the market which
utilize in various forms the casein of

food has long been overlooked. The

milk is not so valuable as whole milk,
