OF all the maniaS that attlict mankind
the most ancient and curious is prob
ably that for collecting. The victims
collect pretty nearly everything from
books to shoe buckles and from pots to
postage stamps, but giant collecting was
the hobby of Frederick William L., king
of Prussia.

officer; destiny made him 4 monarch.

A farmer near Goliad had a novel
experience. \ few years ago he built
a small barn. ana ia the construction
used grCCn willow posts Mt the corners
INC along the sides. For some time
nothing unusual was noticed. but after
n year h" SAW that where he had laid
the floor near the ground it was three
feet above soil. He discovered that
the willow posts. instead OF being dead
were alive. had taken root and were
growing. In their upward movement
they had carried the barn along. Last
spring the barn was on stills Q feet
high. and he put in n new floor and
surrounded the posts with siding.

There is now a space of 9 inches be-
tween the floor and the ground, and

Salt for Cows.

\ supply of salt available whenever
the COW wants it is necessary to main
tain Il high milk yield. Salt stimulates
the appetite and assists digestion and
assimilation, which increase the flow
of the fluids of the body. Sailing feeds
for dairy COWS once a week is not suf-
tirient. 1t is Il good plan to keep rock
salt under shelter where the coWS can
get it at will and then feed loose salt
once a week in such quantities as the
COWS will eat. Loose salt may be used
exclusively if ii can be sheltered from
rain. Do not mix salt with feed, for
frequently Ows get more salt han
they need. which will reduce the flow
of milk, Cows having salt kept before
them at all times in separate compart-
ments will not eat too much.

NEW YORK.

Unsettled weather and prediction
quiet are in evidence this week, as affect
ing trade at a great many cities. EX-
cept at Chicago and New York, where
some good business has been done in
wholesale lines for spring, first and sec
ond hand distribution has been confined
to hlling-in and immediate shipment pro-
portions.
Current distribution as a whole is still
reported below last year at the CORE
spending date. except at a few points IN
the Northwest. Perhaps the most active
line at wholesale is that of cotton goods
for spring.

The Poultry House.

Now is Il good time to disinfect the
poultry house, so as to keep the lice
from getting a mastery over you.
Any kind of liquid lice killer is good
to spray the house with. being sure
to spray the roosts and nest boxes as
we'll. If a cheaper disinfectnnt is re.
uoircd, a w%hitewash can be made of
lice and water. with some crude car.
bolic acid in it. This proves Il very
good Geodorizer and disinfectant, and
a large quantity Of it can be used
without hurting the pocketbook too Sc
verely.
