BROILED ASPARAGUS.

In a certain New York City hotel,
famed for it's excellent cuisine, they
serve broiled asparagus. 1t is very
easily prepared, and, to my mind,
about the incest way to cook the
king of vegetables" Boil as usual,
Or if the Gamer variety is used, heat,
drain and arrange on platter, in two
rows, the tips overlapping in the
center. Butter literally half cup
of bread crumbs, spread over the as
paragus, and place under the flame in
a gas oven. We liked this so well
that / tried it with caulifiower, and
found it just as good.

ParsOnss Joke.

A clergyman who is a widower and
the father Of two charming grown
daughters is also something of a wag.
During his vacation he sent the fol-
lowing telegram to his daughters:
"Have just married widow with
six children. Will be home to-mor-
row."
The next day he arrived alone and
found his daughters in tears.
"W-where is the w-widow?' they
sobbed In unison.
"Oh." he replied. a merry twinkle
in his eye, Il married her to another
man."

KEEP HARNESS nm ORDER.

Horses are now the principal motor
power on our farms. Time was, when
oxen were found on nearly every
farm, but that was before the advent
of improved implements and machin-
cry requiring horses for their use. and
now a pair of oxen are seldom seen.
Horses have taken their Places, and
it costs quite E. sum to keep them
properly harnes5ed and equipped for
work. But - more attention were
paid to keeping the harnesses in good
repair or condition they would last
longer, be easier for the horses and
better to handle.
They should be well oiled once a
year. They will keep them soft and
pliable and lengthen their durability.
There are now preparations made es-
pecially for the purpose, and any
farmer should be able to do the work
himself, and thus save some outlay.

ADVANTAGES OF MULE RAISING.
In some parts of the country, espec-
ialy in. the South, the raising of mules
is very popular. Missouri and Ken
lucky are states that make good
deal of the mule, and more and more
farmers in other states are consider
ing the matter. There are a good
many things in favor of the mule, as
viewed from the standpoint of the
Southern farmer. Whether al the
things the Southern mule raiser
claims for the mule can be substan-
tiated we will leave our readers TO
decide Here are some of the points
claimed in his favor: He can be
very cheaply raised, perhaps more
cheapiy than any other farm animal
for the market at a younger age than
the horse. He is ready TO work when
the horse is just getting out OF colt
hood Mules do not easily yield to
disease and stand hardships exceed
ingly well. They are very careful
about getting hurt, much more so
than the ordinary horse. They seem
to be able to stand high tempera-
ture better than horses, and will work
we'll on hot days when horses suffer
from heat. They can stand abuse bet
ter than horses, but are appreciative of
good treatment. This is a point that
has made them popular in the South,
where their drivers are not always
mindful of their feelings. There is
always a good market demand for
mules, and as they can be sold two
years younger than horses, they are
profitable, and would be profitable
even at lower price.

FUEL FOR HOUSE AND SUGAR
ORCHARD.


In general the fuel, where wood is
used, should have been properly hous-
ed before this time, as there is loss
in allowing it to remain out-of-doors
during the autumn rains unless prop
erly protected. A shed filed with
well-prepared, dry wood, should be
found on every farm where coal IS
not used. Also there should be
supply of kindlings. Usually there is
sufficient material left from the re-
pair of buildings that can be made
quite useful for this purpose.
Where sugar orchards are on fe
farm, it is always best to have plenty
Of wood for boiling the sap. This
wood should be dry, but need not be
Of the best quality, provided it will
burn quickly and readily. Wood that
Is not suitable for the house or mar
ket can be profitably used for this
purpose, but it should be put under
cover, where it will be kept dry. The
sooner the work is done the better.
If there are any repairs necessary to
be done at the sugar house, they
SHOULD receive attention before cold
weather comes on
