For ShelIed Corn.

Where considerable corn has to De
shelled for the animals on the farm
it Is often wasted by falling on the
barn floor and through the cracks De
tween the boards. The device here
suggested is easily made, and II cor
rectly made will certainly save the
corn to the last grain. Make Dox
three feet long, eighteen inches wide
and ten or twelve inches deep. Cover
over one end Of this, at the top, on
which to fasten the corn shelter.
Make an inclined bottom to within
eight inches of the end, which re-
mains open. Put legs under this box
and set it high enough so that pail
or a bag can be set under the open
end bottom to catch the grains or
corn as they come from the shelter.
If bag is used, hooks will have to

On True Politeness.

The secret of all good manners is
unselfishness. Those who live a life
of service for their fellow-men have
no trouble about their manners. Wom-
en- must themselves set the example
of courtesy to each other If they wish
men to treat them courteously. The
specious arguments, 1T is healthful,"
doctors ORDERS" and kindred excus-
es employed by followers of fads to
Justify their bad habits and manners
are too transparent to have any
weight with sensible people. True po-
likeness springs from a kindly heart
The polish that is acquired from edu-
cation is but veneer, and cannot
well stand the wear and tear of life.
No amount of education in courtesy,
either at home or in school, will ena-
BILE the average person to bear patient
ly the unjust criticism or the disagree
able remark. Only the patience of a
kindly spirit can do that.

The Stalled Cow.


Somehow many dairymen have
reached the wrong conclusions when
reading Of dairy farms where the
cows are Stalled the year round. 1t
by no means Is intended that the
cows shall have no outdoor exercise;
on the contrary, except for cows that
are on pasture entirely during the
summer, few cows are more tntelli-
gently exercised and proper ventila-
ton furnished them than Stalled
animals properly brought up. At regu-
lar hours the animals are turned into
commodious barnyards for air and
exercise. During the winter this out
door exercise is as carefully looked
after as during the summer, and, in
the majority Of cases, the cows &C.
cupy only sleeping hours and milking
hours in their separate stalls, the bal
ance Of the time being spent In large
sheds.
Don't be afraid Of the fresh air for
your animals during the winter; see
| that they have all the outdoor exer-
else the weather will permit, but more
than all, see that the stables are
| properly ventilated and aired. There
are a number Of devices for this pur-
pose, and one Of the best Of them is
the window frame covered with mus
lin. Remember that close confinement
and foul air predispose the cow to tu-
berculosis, and that fresh air and plen-
i ty of it will enable her to do her share
not only as a milk producer but as a
mother.

Use Experiment stations.

There is not a State experiment sta
ton in the country whose staff of ex-
perts will not welcome knotty prob
lens from the farmers Of the State.
This would be the case especially this
winter, when they are not rushed with
work. Go over the operations of the
last season and jot down, in consider
able detail, each operation which gave
you trouble and unload these troubles
IN the experiment station of your State.
The staff may be book farmers" as
you think, but all Of them are trained
men and sincerely anxious to help you.
If asking about any particular crop
describe your soil in detail, your meth
cd of culture, and give any other infor-
nation which will enable the station
people to give you an intelligent an
swer.
If any particular crop was unusually
short and you can not account for 1t on
natural reasons, describe your method
of culture, Of fertilizing, the seed, ETC..
and the changes If any in which
the treatment differed from that
given in any previous year when
the same crop was satisfactory. Dc
not be bashful about asking for helI
from the stations, for you help sup
port them, and they are in existence
to assist you, which they will do If 20,
will give them any sort Of an oppor
| tunity.-Exchange.

Husband the Master.

Most married women imagine that
they are mistresses in their own
houses, but that, it appears, unless
they actually hold the deed to the
property, is a delusion. 1T should be
distinctly understood" said Judge
Swartz, of Norristown, Pa, In a re-
cent case, that the husband Is mas
ter of his own house. The wife has
no right to invite or admit her mother
or any one else to the house against
her husbands will" The judge was
good enough to add that the wife
might go to see her mother whenever
she wished, provided she did not go SO
often as to neglect her duty to her
husband and her home, but he did not
say that a man must see that the
kindling wood was chopped and the
water pals full before he INDUCED in
a visit to his father.

Caring for EARLY Chicks.


Every one who raises poultry for egg
production realizes the value of the
early Matched chick. Unfortunately,
many Of the early Matched chicks die,
from various causes, but 1t Is worth
considerable trouble to take all tho
precautions possible to raise all the
chicks that are born healthy. One Of
the hest methods of doing this is to, pro-
vide a special house for the hens and
their broods. Such a house should be
low, not expensive, and built so that
the greatest possible amount Of sun
light can enter it. If this sunlight is
admitted through glass placed close to
the floor care must be taken to cover
this glass at night
The space for each hen and her
brood need not be large, four feet
square would be ample, just enough
to provide plenty of room for exercise
on the part of the chicks. If this room
for exercise is given the chicks will not
huddle so closely about the mother In
cold weather, but will run around, bask
In the sun and pick up small grain If II
is placed where they can get 1t, in the
chaff on the floor All this is trouble,
of course, but 1t makes strong, healthy
chicks and reduces the number OF
deaths among early Matched chicks to
n minimum,

Farm Water Works.

The illustration explains itself. The
plan is intended to meet the needs of
the ordinary dairy or stock farm
where there is a windmill for pump
ing the water. A two-inch tube con-
veys the water into the galvanized
iron house tank, which is enclosed
in a tight wooden box. Water Is
dipped from this tank for household
purposes both summer and winter.

Agricultural Fairs,

The fair season has been exception
ally gratifying. Upon the whole, the
agricultural exhibitions throughout
the country have been better than
usual. Fakes have been discouraged
and legitimate exhibits have benefited.
The issue of complete catalogues, using
plain numbers conspicuously over
each animal or other exhibit and re-
ferring to them in the catalogue, has
attracted favorable attention wher-
ever it has been adopted. Individual
exhibitors have assisted the manage
ment materially by having placards
printed, bearing their name and the
name Of the exhibit and other infor-
nation for the benefit of those attend
ing. The value of an exhibit is lost
unless the visitor can learn quickly
something definite in regard to it

AN Round GOOD Fertilizer.

If pure unbleached wood ashes could
be obtained plentifully and at mod
crate cost, they would give far more
satisfactory results than any other
cheap, natural combination fertilizer
known to agricultural science, as the
ashes are rich in potash and contain
lime in its best form, also serving well
against many kinds Of insects. Ashes
can be used without liability Of injury
on all kinds Of crops If broadcasted
over the soil, as much as 100 bushels
per acre not being considered exces-
sive on certain soils. and they make a
better fertilizer for clover than barn.

TIE BRONX VALLEY SEVER.
why ITS Discharge VIII Not Materially
POIIute the Hudson River.

MOUNT VERNON, n. Y, Dec. 30.-Now
that the Bronx Valley sewer project has
been approved by the State authorities
the commissioners announce that they will
begin construction work as soon as pos
sibh. The commissioners are empowered to
expend s 1000 700, but they say they hope
to 10 the work for less.
REGARDING the claims OF Edward Hatch,
,Jr.. and others Of the Merchants Assooia-
ton who have been opposing the project
because they say that the sewage will pol
lutte the Hudson River, the engineers say
that the amount of sewage to be discharged
il less thar a one-thirtieth part Of the
AMOUNT now emptied into the river by
New York city and less than the sewage
of one city block in the congested section
Of New York. The commissioners say
that they would be glad to follow the de-
sire Of the Merchants Association and
treat the sewage before discharging IL into
the river, but that they have looked all
over the United States and Europe n
nave peer unable 10 find a disposal plant
which is q success.
The erection of a disposal plant at any
point near Van Cortlandt Park, they say,
would prove a much greater detrtment to
New York city than the discharge Of the
sewage into the river. The commissioners
lave planned to take h sewage out into
the channel and discharge 1t fifty feet under
swift tide water, which they say will pre-
vent any nuisance or material pollution.
