AGRICULTURAL POINTS.

The farm is what a fellow makes it.
Faith is the father of profit in farm
ing.
The frost strikes deep in we'll.
drained soil.
Advice to those about to farm
Keep your tools bright, your fences
tight and your heart light.
Stone harvest lasts from November
to March. During the rest of the
year other things interfere with it.
It is poor management to go with
out things that are needed, in order
to hoard up money. Human necessi-
ties come first.
The depth of the water table in the
soil will regulate to considerable
degree the moisture of the soil. The
water table should not be nearer to
the surface than 30 inches and may
be ten feet below the surface in very
fine soils.

COLOR SENSE IN ANIMALS.
Possessed to High Degree by Some
Especially by Birds.

A hypothesis that the sense of colors
is possessed to high degree by ami
mails and especially by birds furnished
basis for some of the most beautiful
and fecund of the Darwinian theories
of sexual selection, says the Scientific
American. No Darwinist doubts that
the brilliant colors of male birds are
to attract the attention of the female
birds, and this presupposes naturally
on the part of. these birds fine sense
of color.
Wallace has asserted that to the
fact that certain plants bear fruit of
brilliant colors is due their preserva-
ton; the animals, attracted by these
colors, break the fruits FROM the trees
or plants, carry them AFT and thus in
directly assist in the dissemination
Of the seeds which they contain over
large tracts of land. And this func-
ton of selection on the part of ami:
mails presupposes In them a certain
sense of color. Still, scientific sdocu:
ments in support of these hypothesis
are rare. - -. d., z%%S=:~,z -:

DUST PREVENTION ON ROADS,
Application of Tar Being Tried in the
Vicinity Of Troy, N. Y.

A modification of the common meth
cd of using tar on public highway
for the purpose of laying dust is re.
ported from the vicinity of Troy,
New York state.> The experiment is
being tried by State Engineer Van
Alstyne, in village of considerable
size. The first step is to sprinkle hot
tar on the road, and then to fill up
low spots with screenings When the
surface has been we'll packed by
teams, second application is made.
The job is not considered complete,
though, until there has been g third
coating. Before being used, the tar is
boiled to drive off any water it may
contain.
/ This road is much used by automo;
biles, whose owners found the dust
as unpleasant as did the local resi-
dents, and consequently two classes

ments carefully. The extraordinary
increase everywhere in the number
of horseless carriages of late has
made the suppression of dust as i'm:
portant to- their drivers as to resi-
dents, along the roads frequented by
them. Formerly the man in an auto
mobile did not appreciate what a
nuisance this dust was, but now that
many cars are running over each
good road there is no longer any
tendency to deny that these vehicles
| are responsible for somewhat Sc.
rious action on the surface of the
highway, and that steps should be
taken to prevent it. 1t is not wear
in the usual sense of the term, but
| rather suction, and as it's effect can
be checked by the same means that
! are used to lay dust, the importance
of these experiments can be readily
/ appreciated.

This is white season." for there
is perfect rage for white fox, ermine,
White-faced cloth, and above all, ivory
white Indian cashmere. The latter is
really an ideal material for dresses Of
ceremony, but it has been rather out
of favor the last three or four years.
Now it is rushing to the front again
and in connection with rare, lovely
embrOideries. -, -
Marguerite, dowager queen of Italy,
is credited with this universal adop.
ton of white, for on every possible
occasion she appears in white cos.
tunes. The late king Of Italy was
very fond of the virgin tint and was
really angry when his queen appeared
in any but the palest and most deli.
cate colors. He dedared-with truth
that pretty woman looks her best
in, robes composed of soft white laces
and he used to present his wife with
costly dounces, on condition that she
wore them on ordinary, as well as
extraordinary, occasions. Indeed King
Humbert's two special weaknesses
were laces and pearls, and with these
two most desirable possessions Queen
Marguerite, is richly endowed.
The queen has been heard to say
that beautiful white lace and rich
white furs belong. by right, to women
who have left their youth behind
them: It is aasvery comfortable doc
trine and one. which contains many
grains Of truth. -.
We saw a handsome pale gray
cashmere robe the other day which
had several flounces on the skirt
Each of these flounces was edged with
hand embroideries of the finest de

=. STORING WATER,
How a Reservoir Can Be Cheapty
Built at the Spring.

An easy way to make a reservoir
at the spring, is to throw up "a bank,
perhaps laying wall first, founding
it below the surface. I have seen
many reservoirs excavated at great
expense, sometimes in the solid rock,
at the useless expenditure of money.
By going down hill few feet it would
have been simple and inexpensive.

another a big South Australian brown
draught bull and tho third handsome
fawn-colored COW.
@"Kingsley, + must say, had noticed
for some time that sort Of love jea(
otlsy had sprung up between the two
bulls over the cow camel. There is
little doubt that rivalry in love for the
female was the cause Of the fray;
''When the fight started we ran into
the field and ventured as near the
combatants as we dared, hiding our
selves behind some scrub timber.
when we got under cover the two
bulls seemed to be mNneuvering for

yards apart. They were both mad all

Suddenly the brown bull, setting
his legs like mighty columns of mar
BILE on the firm ground, drew his head

ON the other hand, drew his slender
and more shapely legs we'll under him
and crouched low. His neck was
strained to its utmost, his head almost

Slowly the black fellow crept on un-

then with a spring of\indescribable
swiftness he dashed forward and
seized the of foreleg of the brown in
his bony jaws and jerked the leg
across to the near side, trying to hurl

fellow had evidently been there before
for he dropped like fash Of light.
ming to his knee, and, selling the
black by the withers with his teeth,
crushing the black head down with
his neck,s he put all his giant strength
into his work and fairly heeled the
Indian of his legs, tearing away great
Jumps of flesh, hair and. hide with one
effort.
"Then he bounded to his feet and
threw himself forward with all his
mighty weight to try and crush the
Indian; but the Indian shot under him
as he came like a lightweight boxer
under the long left hand of a heavy
weight and, turning with electric
speed, he seized the brown bull by the
heel Of his near hind leg and threw
him clean and square upon his back

to force the big fellows head upon the

Cutters in Stables.

Many of the old-fashioned stables
have no cutters, the floor behind the
standing platforms of the cow: being
a dead level. The liquids flow over all
and this is constantly wet during the
time the cows are tied up. It is al
ways advisable to construct cutters
behind the cows; thus keeping the
level part dry and clean at all times.
This gutter will catch the liquids and
will carry them to one end of the
stable where they can be made to run
into some kind of receptacle or some
absorbent that will preserve them
for fertilizing purposes. The cutters
greatly facilitate the cleaning out Of
the. stables. ! :" -: ~: 80: -

;:z=Z c:;oNvlcTs*AND GOOD ROADS, !:
Suggestion That the Labor Of the Foe
mer BE Utilized in This Way.

In nearly all sections of the country
the necessity of better roads is fully
appreciated, yet the problem of secur.
ing them is continuing difficult one.
Farmers are too busy in most sections
most of the year to devote all the time
necessary to make the roads what they
should be, though there is much i'm
provement since the use of the split
dog drag and similar devices has be-
come more common.
Figures recently issued on the re-
suits of convict labor in American
prisons carry with them suggestion
of what might be accomplished for
the betterment of roads if some OF the
labor performed by convicts should
be devoted in that direction, says Chi
cago Sun. It is shown that convicts
| in America produced $34, 276,205 worth
| of manufactured goods last year. Boots
and shoes came first, with a value Of
$8,527,599, with clothing next at ST.
CASH. There were 8,341 convicts en-
ployed at farming, producing $685.
875 worth of farm products, while g.
507 worked on roads and highways,
giving value of $1,657,170 Missouri
led, her 1878 convicts earning value
| of $2,451,939 The average cost of
keeping convict one year is given as
follows: Food, $51.6s; clothing, $1S.02;
| guarding, $500.
| Manufacturers who have invested
money in plants naturally have strong
objections to the competition they are
compelled to meet from prison-made
goods. There is no question that they
seriously interfere with regular trade
in many lines. One case is reported
where in prison the yearly make per
convict is 1879 pairs Of shoes, or IS
pairs more than the average daily out
put in free labor factories.
Should more of the convict labor be
employed in the work of improving
our public roads the general public
would be benefited rather than few
labor contractors who secure big serv'
ice from state convicts. In that way
they would compete less with free Ia
Dor than in any other line. The slogan
Good roads made by bad men," has
been taken up and should be given
more general attention in every state
