In wild and painless tangle

Ground that Burns.

In the great wheatfields of Califor- mia a boy, whose part in the process does not at first appear to the outsid- CT, skirmishes along near the reapers with a wet sack, pounding madly here and there. He Is the fire tender. Once set off, this grain, baked as 1t is by rainless summer, would burn like a flash. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have gone up In an hour on these delta lands. for here even the ground burns. The soil is made of matted tule reeds, laid down in sue cesslve rotting strata by the river. When once uncovered and dried in the sun, 1t smolders with a slow persist ence, like a sawdust fire.

Sand Asainst Rats and Mice.

According to an Australian writer. in the early days of Tasmanisn the farmers suffered greatly from the ray ages of rats and mice in their grain stacks. In order to protect himself one farmer adopted the expedient of sanding" the stack. While building a stack, he would throw a quantity of dry sharp. clean sand between every two layers of sheaves.
 It is said that neither rats nor mice would invade such a stack, and the reason given by the farmer was that "the vermin. in attempting to get into the stack. would be driven away by the sand falling into their eyes and ears" The sand was also useful in cleaning smutty wheat

Killing Aspnragus Seed.

A Western gardener says: One of the troublesome features of asparagus growing Is the seed that annually rip ems. Part of this seed will drop to the ground and become incorporated with the soil. Some of this seed will then grow. and unless great care Is exer- clsed, lot of new plants will spring up. These seedlings soon take full pos session and the patch becomes un- profitable. Some growers 90 through the plantation before the seed is quite ripe, and even by this method some seed will drop to the ground. Chick CTS will eat some of the seed, but not enough to do much good. By scatter Ing wheat over the patch a flock will usually make clean job of it. One thing Is sure. to make an asparagus patch yield all possible profit 1t must be cultivated and managed with great { intelligence.

Getting Into Step,

Mrs. Gregg was known to all Cedar by as "a born mana ger"; but she was unconscious of her reputa ton, and, in fact, never suspected that she pos. scssed a single trait which could lead to such characterization.
 Look at Salome Jones and her young man. said Mrs. Gregg, summon. ing a visitor to her front window. Look at him loping along with Salone trotting at his side. My stars. Well, I guess needn't worry. If 1t comes to anything. l guess they'll fearn to accommodate their steps to each other before they've been married long, same as James and I did"
 How did you do itT' asked the visitor.
 How did we do it?' echoed Mrs. Gregg. Why, we did 1t by patience and perseverance. same as you have to do everything in this world. When we walked together I kept saying, James, your steps are too long. James, you're going too fast James, you're four steps ahead of me- till at last we got so we kept step per fectly."-Youths Companion.

Poultry PickinRs.

Hens like a variety of food and 1t i, an item to give them as much in this line as possible.
 Rather the best way to feed corr to young chickens is to give 1t in 6 crushed or cracked condition.
 For ducklings try cornmeal and bran. equal parts, and make 1t into mush, with milk.
 If the egg shells are fed to poultry care should always be taken to crush them well before feeding.
 When desired to fatten rapidly there is nothing better than good corn meal. Give all they will eat up clean
 A hen pays in proportion to the number of eggs she produces; there, fore, 1t is an item to feed so as to se' cure plenty of eggs.
 When the chickens are of their feed and do not eat with an apparent rel ish, increase the exercise and change the bill of fare.
 Tn arranging the nests. have them arranged conveniently for the hens so that in getting in and out there will be little danger of breaking the eggs.

Good Plan for Icehouses.

The cut shows vertical cross sec ton of cheap icehouse filled with ice. The plan Is as follows: The foundation should be dug about two feet deep in gravelly soil. If the soil is clay the foundation should be dug a little deep CT and then filled in with a few inches of gravel or crushed brick. Such a foundation will allow a slight circula- ton of air through the ice. Around the inside of the foundation, 6x6-inch sills should be laid and to these double row of studs should be nailed, one row on the inside and one on the outside The boarding is then nailed to the studs. This will make double wall with an air space between as in- dicated by the letter A in the cut
 This air space will prevent the heat from getting to the ice. The boards on the gable ends should be put on yer tically, leaving cracks between them for the free circulation of air above the ice The roof should project about three feet and be covered with shin gles. A portion of the middle of the ridge should be cut out, leaving an opening about six inches wide, and over this a cap should be placed, as shown in the cut, leaving an opening on each side for ventilation. The ar
