have the first bottom slat at the back
fit closely against the back, as this will
hold the droppings. The feeding and
watering are done by means Of
trough in front running the entire
length Of the coop. This trough Is from
two to three inches deep and is made
Of three-quarter inch lumber.
Charming When Weather Is Cold.
Let the milk stand thirty-six hours !;
then skim. If 1t stands longer than
this, especially in cold room, the
cream is liable to be bitter, and con-
seQuently you will have bitter butter
Once day turn into the cream a quart
Of new milk warm from the COW, then
stir thoroughly. If the cream does not
sour by the time the bucket is nearly
full, set 1t ON the stove reservoir Of
warm, not hot, water, stirring frequent
ly until soured. Then add sweet cream,
or new milk enough for a churning.
Let this stand twelve hours then warm
on the reservoir Of warm water, STIR
ring often, SO that the cream will warm
all through.
AS soon as the right temperature Is
obtained the cream should be churned.
A little salt added to the cream after
1t is in the churn Is a great help in
separating the butter from the milk,
and it also aids in gathering the but
ter. If there are bubbles in the cream
after churning a while, add a little
warm water frequently until the butter
is gathered. This Is favorite method
in cold weather, and If followed you
will always have sweet, solid, salable
butter.

Protecting Wall Paper.

In a handsomely papered room-in
fact, In any room where the neatness
of the wall is looked to-the person
who cleans the room should be given
a strip Of tin about six by twelve inch
es, having its upper edge bent out. 1t
should be held by the bent-out edge
against the wallpaper, resting on the
skirting board, to prevent moistening
the paper while the skirting- boards are
being scrubbed.

We herewith illustrate foul-fatten-

cultural College. This crate Is 6 feet
6 inches long, 1S to 20 inches high and
16 inches wide. 1t is divided into
three compartments, each holding from
four to five birds, according to the size
Of the chickens. The crate Is made of
Stats, except the ends. The Stats are
usually 1 ~ inches wide and five-eighths
Of an inch thick. The Stats in front
are run up and down and are two in
ches apart to allow the chickens to put
their heads through for feeding. The
Stats on the bottom are three-f ourths

Hauling Manure to Field.

While 1t is admittedly the better plan
to get the manure to the fields as soon
after it is made as possible, the plan
has Its greatest value when the manure
is spread as soon as placed on the soil
that is, do not put 1t in heaps to
spread at some later period, but, II pos
sible, load 1t from the stable directly;
into a spreader, so that as soon as ID
reaches the field 1t can be put on the
soil, where 1t will leach in during the
winter. The idea of carting the manure
direct to the field Is to have 1t I'M
proving the soil instead Of letting a
portion Of Its virtue go into the air, as
is the case when 1t lays in the barnyard
all winter.

where Women Clean the street,

In the Kongo district the street
cleaning (such as there is of it, is not
done by white Wings" nor, indeed,
by any men. Women are the only per-
sons who will stoop to the indignity Of
doing the street sweeping. Their uni
form is a single loose garment, girt in
at the waist by a rope. They WELD
long-handled brooms with punches Of
brush at one end.

two straps with strong buckles are
needed.
The strap should be wide enough so
that 1t will not cut the legs of the hog.
Place one Of the straps over the front
leg, after placing the ring In position,
and the other over the hind leg on the
same side. Be sure and buckle the
straps tight enough so that they will
not come off. Then take a strong rope
and tie In the rings as shown, being
careful that it is long enough SO that

APPLE BLOSSOMS.
The Florists Way of Making the Season
Last Six Weeks Instead OF One.

The Florists Way OF Making the Season
Last Six Weeks Instead Of One.
New York sun.
Apple blossoms are among the few
things that the florist does not raise HIM
self. He gets the supply he needs for
decorations at weddings and other func-
tions from farmers and orchardists.
As the season OF apple blossoms app
proaches the florist sends out into the sur
rounding ccomtry a prospector looking
for blossoms. His is neither so doubtful
nor so dangerous a mission as that of the
man who goes into far countries IN search
of orchids; for the apple blossom buyer
knows right where be can find what he
seeks, and he goes there straight and
dickers with the farmer for what he wants.
Sometimes he buys whole trees, some
times only boughs OF sprays. If the
farmer has a tree whose fruit is not of
the best, but whose blossoms are as beau
as any, he may sell the whole tree, If he
can get more for the blossoms than the
tree would yield him in fruit And as to
the others trees, it may be that they will
be benefited by cutting away some Of
their branches. So " is easy for the
blossom buyer to get what be wants for
price. -.
He buys and cuts branches Of apple
blossoms while the blossoms are yet In the
bud, for the apple blossom in full bloom
is a fragile as well as beautiful thing
which would not stand transportation,
while in the bud it can be transported
safely. ~
In any given locality the season Of
apple blossoms is short; a week might
cover the period within which the bios
SONS would come out, to appear in full
beauty on the tree for a brief time and
fall then dismembered, in showers of
white to the ground. What with cutting
the blossoms in the bud and getting them
from different latitudes the florist pro-
longs this season greatly.
If apple blossoms are wanted before
their season here he gets them further
SOUTH from the apple bearing districts
of Virginia, where they bloom earlier. and
so he comes north for his supply until he
comes to the season of apple blossoms
hereabouts For later blossoms he draws
on districts further north.
Thus he is able 70 supply apple bios
SONS not for a week alone, but six weeks
OF two months.

HOW TO CLEAN JEWELS.
Various Processes Which Will Restore
Lost Brilliancy.

Philadelphia Record.
Jewels depend so much upon their
lustre for their satisfactory appearance
that II is worth while spending a certain
amount of trouble in their preservation.
To retain the original brilhancy OF dia-
mond. IL should always be kept in a box
or tray OF loose sawdust, well protected
from the light Rubies. emcralds and
sapphiros should be treated in the same
way. and. before they are worn, a gentle
polish with a soft, clean chamois leather
and q little prepared chalk will make
them regain all their lost brightness.
Pearls are injured by exposure TO
damp. but sea salt has a marvellous effect
in restoring those which have become
dull. or "sic1," as they are described
professionally. The necklace or rope
should be laid in a bowl Of salt water
covered with a cloth. and left for several
DAYS without allowing the daylight 10

recommend warm vinegar as a brighten
