The Conscientious Scot.

A commercial travelling man landed at Edinburgh. Scotland. one Saturday night too late to get out of town for Sunday The next day he found that there was actually no form of amuse- ment in the whole city to assist him in whiling away the day. He went to the proprietor of the hotel to see if he could suggest a way of passing the re mainder of the day.
 The landlord took pity on the stran- ger and took him to one of the rooms in the house Tn which a number of Scotchmen were playing game called map" which is a sort of modification of seven up" They were playing for a shilling a point, so that the game was a pretty stiff one. The stranger got in the game and played very eau tiously. for he was quite sure that the players. or at least some of them, were cheating. One solemn faced Scot, he was especially sure. he caught cheat ing a number of times The visitor be- gan whistling a part of some yagraut tune. The Scot who had been cheat ing arose from the table and threw down the cards.
 "What is the matter?' the other players asked.
 "I'm gangin' awa'." the Scot answer ed. glaring al the stranger. .Ili play cards wi no mon that whistles on the Sabbath"

FIG. 1.-rc4 HOUSE AND COOL ROOM.

l0. l. fly. as an ieehouse of that size will hold about twenty loads or tons of ice.
 The main point Is the division be tween the icehouse and the room be- low it. This must be perfectly air tight and moderately good conductor of heat The floor may be laid in the following manner:
 Beams of sufficient strength are laid across and the ends well bedded in ce ment. A floor of zinc sheets is then laid upon the beams. the sheets being closely nailed to the beams upon strips of rubber sheeting to make the joints water and air tight, The beams should be dressed smoothly. The zine sheets are bent. as shown in the illustration Zig. 2l This is for the purpose of causing the moisture. which will con dense upon the underside of this ceil- ing. to flow downward to the lower angle. where il will drip. The drip is caught in the little gutters of zine shown in the figure attached to the ceiling and is carried off by q proper drain With this water will also be cuffleu OH mucn or tue ilDl'uflts VI the atmosphere. and If very little ven. tilation is given there will be little condensation and the air will be kept dry This point must be well attended to. as the danger of excessive yentila- ton is very great The beams and zine ceiling should be painted with white paint-lead and oil.
 Above the zinc ceiling thin layer of dry, fresh sawdust should be laid smoothly. and floor of matched pine boards should be laid upon that and thoroughly coated with melted pitch. This floor should slope little to one corner so as to draw the waste water from the ice there, and an s trap drain should be laid from that to carry off the water into the drain above men. toned. The usual layer of sawtust Is laid unen this floor to prevent too rap id conveyance of heat from below to the ice above. Small double windows

Market Hoos.

What kind of hog will bring the most money in the market. and what breed will make the best market hogg These are questions hard to answer definitely Markets vary as to the class of hogs that will sell at the top. When lard is at premium the hog that yields a large amount of lard Is the market topper, and that means the heavy, thick, fat hog When lard ls below other products this kind of hog sells for less than the light weight which will make handy pork loins and good hams without too much fat on them. Taking one year with anotber in eastern markets. the hog of 1s0 to 200 pounds will hit the top oftener than any other weight. In western markets hogs of around 25o pounds will probably average best. Some times lighter or heavier hogs will out sell these grades. according to the fluctuations in price of the product. In summer hog prices cover the widest range because there is the greatest difference ill the yield of product at this season. Tn the winter all hogs are born fed and yield more uniform guan- tifies of product Tn summer many Ire grassers that make tow yields and bf inferior quality to corn fed hogs. A 200 pound hog that dresses 50 per gent yields iG0 pounds. one that dress ts 75 per cent yields tao pounds, and bne that dresses 70 per cent yields pnly 140 pounds. an enormous differ
 ence in q carload of hogs. which the buyer makes allowance for in buying lhem on foef As rule. of late the best hogs have been the cheapest on the hooks at the top of the market be- cause they have yielded so much more product than the others. which looked cheaper to the inexperienced observer. As to the breed that killers like best, probably more would answer Berk- shire than any other breed. But hogs are what killers want. and the kind they want will top the market, wheth- er black. white. red or spotted.

 The Manure Spreader.

There are not many farm imnle- ments that will pay for themselves more quickly than a manure spreader. II saves labor, but that is not the big part of the profit. Some men must hesitate about purchase If 1t means only a saving of labor. The use of the spreader means great increase in the efficiency of the farm supply of manure. Some men cannot see this point They say that they get the manure on the land and that is all that is necessary. But it isn't Ma. nure gives life to soil even when the application Is light. and it is poor policy to give one spot more than is needed while another spot Is left bare or to make a heavy application to one acre and leave another acre without manure We now know that 1t pays to make the manure go over rela- lively large acreage. Director Thorne of the Ohio station has said that eight loads of manure per nere applied with q spreader have about as great etii- cieney as twelve loads put on roughly with fork. Every foot gets little of the material, and the effect Is seen in the sud that follows or the sod to which the manure is applied Land should not have heavy dressing of manure when other land in the farm needs manure. Make tis Application light and even. and only spreader can do the work well. In the interest of better sods. which are the life of q soil. add to the efficiency of the ma, nure by using q spreader.

potatomatoes.

In erafting the tomato on the potato or the potato on tomato. or in making any other graft of similar herbaeeous plants. the simpler methods are pre- ferred. The saddle graft and splice graft are the ones most commonly used. The splice graft is made bs simply cutting the sclons smooth slanting cut. The stock is cut in the same way, and the two members are tied together with their faces joined
 In order to get the best results It Is desirable to have the grafts made of rather tender shoots. such as have only partially hardened. In order 10 get proper union with this sort Of tissue it is necessary that the cut be made with very sharp knife. prefer ably with razor. The two parts are then rather tendcrly joined together

 Popular Apple.

Whatever temporary allegiance VI may owe 10 other fruits in their sea son. the apple Is the acknowledged king. The orange. the pear, the plum the grape and other products of the orchard all have their place of honor, but 1t Is only the apple that is with us always. Scarcely have the winter apples of last season disappeared. scarcely has the last well preserved Baldwin been taken from the bottom of the barrel. when the summer apples of the new season are ready for eat Ing. And what is more welcome. what Is more fragrant. what is more ius cious to the taste and more beautiful to the sight than the reckoning August boughs of the summer apple trees?

An expert pomologist has said that apples should be handled as If they were eggs. and he Is not far from wrong. The slightest bruise means the instant be ginning of decay, and one rotten apple eau infect an entire barrel. Lovers of apples should therefore learn that care is essential to the preservation of fruit and that the better they are treated the longer the store will remain sound and healthy to meet the demands made upon it throughout the winter and spring
