She finds no pleasure in needlework, nor in walking abroad, lawn tennis, or any active pursuit what ever. Hovels and cigarettes and sun flower seeds are well-nigh all the legiti mate occupations that come within her reach, especially at her country residence. Vanity is not one of tho Russian lady's cardinal sins. Though bad complexions are the rule, as a result of the climate, bad ventilation, irregular living and want ot exercise, no well-bred lady paints. Small feet and hands are common, and if the Russian lady takes pride in any particular part of her person, it would be the smallness and shapeliness of these extremities.—St. Louis Republic.

TH E WHISTLING GIRL . The whistling girl does not commonly come to a bad end. Quite ns often as any other girl she learns to whistle o cradle song, low and sweet and charm, ing, to the young voter in the cradle. Sho is a girl of spirit, of independence of character, of dash and flavor; and as to lips, why, you must have some sort oi presentablo lip3 to whistle;- thin ones will not. Th e whistling girl does not come to a bad end at all (if marriago is still considered a good occupation), ex. cept a cloud may be thrown upon her ex uberant young life by this rascally proverb. Even if sho walks the lonely road of life, she has this advantage, that she can whistle to keep her courage up, But in a larger sense, ono that this practical age can understand, it is not true that tho whistling girl conies to a bad end. 'Whistling pays. It has brought her money; it has blown hei name about tho listening world. Scarcelj has a non-whistling woman been more famous. Sho has set aside the adage. Sho has done so much toward tho eman cipation of her sex from the prejudice created by an ill-natured proverb which never had root in fact. But has the whistling woman como to stay? Is it well for women to whistle? Are the majority of women likely to be whistlers? These aro serious questions, not t o bo taken up in a light manner ni the end of a gravo paper. 'Will women ever learn to throw a stone? There it is. The luture is inscrutable. \Wo onlj know that whereas they did not whistle with approval, now they do; tho preju dice of generations gradually melts away. And woman's destiny is not linked with that of the hen, nor to be controlled by a proverb—perhaps not by auythins.— Harper's Magazine. FASIIIOX MOTES. Pink and black is a very stylish binntion.

OLD LACES TH E RAOE . As for laces, never was there such a ransacking of old stores. One of tho re cently developed industries of \lady workers at home\ is the mending of fine old laces, and they have many young Bociety ladies for pupils. Veils arc also a fad of the season. Not the little ntlairs that just reach the nose, but generous ones, thin as.cobwebs, that cover the big hats and come well under the chins of the fair wearers. Even the old style veil, with a deep border, that is fastened to the bonnet with a ribbon, and falls almost to the knee, has been revived as an adjunct to the poke bonnets. The fashion of wearing veils to public entertainments is exceeding bad form. The friendly gaslight does away with the necessity for veiU, and nothing is so hurtful tn the eyes as looking at the stage and through glasses with a veil on. Mote than nil this, it is not good taste, anil really fushioniblc women never do it.—Mc.v York Telegram. . . 1\ N U . •OVS Should IXnvo It la Tho Eonno, Hropjntl on Sugar, Children Zorc •ot.nke Jous'.sns-'p Avoors'i:I.:\'i«F„\Tfor Croup, Colds, fjore Throat.

The blushing bud wears her tresses pnrteJ straight down the centre, slightly waved, and coiled or braided low in the neck. The innge is light and wavy, cut round rather than pointed, and the short locks are curled loosely and carelessly all the way down to the ears. The old fashion of wearing a single rose in the hair has been revived, only that now tho rose is sometimes of enamel, with dia- mond-dcweJ petals. Still the natural Uower is occasionally made to do duty with pleasing effect. Yot.ug women one or two seasons out affect the Psyche knot, which has re turned, to tho delight of the Madonna- faced woman and the despair of those with more plebeian features. The knot is not a twist, hotvevcr, but a snarl of soft little curls fastened on only heaven aud the hairdresser know how. A nar row ribbon is sometimes tied about the head for evening, with still little loop 3 and an aigrette of bird of paradise feath ers strung with diamonds rising from the bow. The Grecian fillet of gold is much affected, too, with this style of coiffure. Tue young matron wears a mere elabo rate arrangement, which consists of a softly twisted figure eight, held in place with diamond pins and finished in the nuJk with little curls. The hair is waved back to meet the coiffure, only a few I locks falling carelessly on tho fore- | head. Matrons of more dignified presence (one would scarcely presume to call them oldcr)fancy the Josephine arrangement, which is a twist coiled very high on the head, half covered with a flutter of curls and secured with an imposing comb or pin of gold and jewels.—New York Sun.

Tho expense of collecting precious stones is great, and yet fashionable women have developed a fashion for this sort of thing, and arc said to make heroic sacrifices in order to gratify the new whim. Their fancy for turquoises has increased tho former market value of thojc pretty blue stones, while no diminu tion in the price of pearls and brilliants seems possible until tho present craze is abated. Nor infrequently tho idea is to possess diamonds of a particular tone, to the en- elusion of all other colors—blue, rose, straw or pure white—aud when that is the case tho jewel box is emptied of every treasure to gratify this taste. One woman of most luxurious habits, whose heart has been ensnared by the rare beauty of yellow pearls, not only \put by her maid\ as tho English say, but denied herself tailor suits and imported bonnets for two seasons for tho sake of these favorite gems. A string of perfect pearls is tho desire of most women's hearts, and the prettiest gilt a godmother can bestow is a nucleus \Watches look like flowers, and may oe pinned on the bodice like a real flower.

Toilet ruu!js of silver aro tho latest. They are tall, flaring and without ban dies. The only ornamentation is at tho base in a repousse band or slight fes toons. One of the curiosities of tho present modes consists in having white satin- stitch pieces on net or laco, inserted in cloth, as if the latter were not a woolen but a mull fabric. A silver pocket-flask has a dead finish, with three or four swallows in flight on raised work. Above thesa is the word \Several.\ The pertinenco of these facts lies in their interpretation. Pompadour dressing tables in gilt with an onyx slab aud an oval mirror above a cabinet-like enclosure of small squares of bevelled glass might have been copied from Versailles or Foatain blcau. A set comprising paper knife, envel ope opener, pen holder and the rest, of stained ivory, have for orqament incis ions after designs found on old Indian relics. It was exhibited at the Paris Exposition. Roman earrings, reproduced from the Cesnola collection in the Metropolitan Art Gallery, are frequently made to ordei for Nc«r York ladies who affect Greek house costumes. These oddities cost §14 to $80. Lamp shades made of what appears to be giant petals of different flowers in exquisite shades of rose, green and or ange are introduced. In flower screens for lamps the different varieties of orchids are beautifully copied. Childron, like their elders, aro wear ing mob-crowned hats, but with soft brims, and they are ornamented with yellow lace in tho flax and wheat shades, old gold ribbons aud other ecru arrange ments on rose, straw and mauve. The silk purse is almost as cheap as the proverbial sow's ear. Women who can afford them won't carry thorn. They are pretty, historic and all that, but a real nuisance. Ono needs to be ambidex trous to get them when a coin ia wanted in a hurry. There is no brooch, lace pin or mlna- ture painting too precious, too bi g or too unique to be worn in the bonnet strings. Even marquis and largo solitaire ring3 are being remounted and stuck I under tho ears in tho velvet ties that are often the biggest part of an ovening bon net. Black tulles brocaded with Pompadour bouquets are among the favored materials for Parisian party gowns. White moire stripped with satin will b3 ventured for bridal gowns. Satin broche of Louis XV. baskets of flowers, feathors, etc., on a peau de soie ground makes a lovely wedding gown. On tho Eastern frontier of the Dark Continent coal is so plentiful that by lifting a shovelful o f clay off any par ticular spot it may be reached. But there is no means o f transporting it to market. MARKETIN G HA Y I N BALES. If it were not for the bad condition of country roads hay would bo more gener ally marketed after baling than it now is. On a good road with strong wagon threo tons of hay may be drawn by team in one load. It is the cheapness of tho baling process that gives farmers at a distnnce the advantage in sending baled hay by carloads over thoso who market the hay loosely in sinulo loads from near-by farms.—Boston Cultivator. THE FEEDING VALU E OF COBMEAL. The cob of corn is not digestible, and is not to be recommended for feeding to horses. It is difficult to grind as fino as is safe for these animal?, and is apt to produce irr.tatiou of the bowels by its sharpness and roughness. For cows and sheep it is not so objectionable, but its small quantity of nutritive matter ren ders it of little value for even Jheso ani mals that have strong digestive organs. As it must be ground t o b e of any use, the cost of grinding leaves no profit on the feeding, and, therefore, considering all things, it is more advisable to use cornmeal instead of the oobmeal. As f rule the best food is the most economi cal, and mere bulk is better made up with bay, or even straw, which is moie easily digested than the hard, woor'.y cobs of corn,—New York Times. PLOWIX O WIT H DYNAMITE. Subsoil plowing with dynamite is ono of the new methods in the South, and it is said to be equal to the process of trenching used by the market; gardoncr3 to loosen the earth to a depth of two or three feet and allow the absorption of a good deal of water for sustaining vegeta tion during a drought. Tho inventor drills holes two or\ three feet deep and five feet apart, making 1600 to the acre. In each he puts an explosive, and after tamping it, discharges, the number be ing connected with a wire leading to a battery. In a recent experiment tho ex plosive used was one-fourth of a small- sized dynamite cartridge, with about an ounce ot Judson powder. The surface of the ground appeared to be lifted two or three feet, a few small clods being thrown to the hoight of a house. It was broken to the depth of thirty inches at the points of the explosion and sideways for a part of the distance between the holes.—St. Louis Republic. EATABLE MCTTON. Of the various crosses of the South down or other breeds of sheep, tho Shropshire thus far seems the most gen erally useful in America. A greater num ber of these have consequently been im ported, especially of rams to turn out among our flocks of common ewes. The chif unit of their breeding is an increase of ilesh in proportion to tne bone, and this flesh is of supreme quality, it being mostly a tender, juicy leau, well marbled, that is abundantly mixed with nice, slender streaks of fat. Broader, more juicy and thicker chops can be cut from the enrcass of such sheep, and they are more savory and tenderly cooked. The leg of mutton, whether roasted or boiled, is so superior that every part of it is eaten without waste of fat and tough pieces to be cut off and laid aside. If, then, it happens to cost higher in the market, it is choapcr in the end, for every part of it is consumed and highly relished.—New York Tribuue. grain, impure water, and exposure to sudden changes of weather. A remedy is not to be found among medicines, but in general treatment of tho animal, giv ing only the purest food, and when or dinary hay is given it should bo sprinkled either with pure water or with a very weak brine or lime-water. Sound, cican outs may bo given, but ground feed with an occasional handful of linseed meal or oil cake added is preferable to continuous rations of oats or other wholo grain. Horses affected with heaves mayalso be fed roots, such as carrots, parsnips, and jaw potatoes, and with benefit, as these tend to - keep the bowels open. Good, well-cured corn fodder is far preferable to hay even where tho animal is inclined to bo thick-winded. Wo do not mean the ordinary cornstalks saved after the cars have beon harvested, but corn sown thickly in drills and then cut up before frosts, and nicely cured in tho shock. Most horses will prefer such fodder to tho best of hay, and it is the be3t coarse fo >d as yet discovered for horse3 afflicted with heaves. Ia summer the animal should either bo allowed to run out to pisture or fed on fresh-cut grass or si nilar green food. There are, however, crises of heaves that are incurable, owing tn certain organic diseases of tho> bron- c'liul tubes or the rupturo of the air cells i t the lungs, but such cases are com paratively raro, while the ordinary foim 'if heaves is more or lcs3 common.—Now fork Sun. » be THE POO It CHOW . That useful and perhaps most intelli gent of all our native birds, the common crow, has been accused of much rnscal- ty, but that he is destructive to water melons and ground pea3 is to us an en tirely new line of mischief to bo recorded against him. However bad the crow may be at times he still has some, yes, many, redeeming traits; consequently, we cannot wish for his extermination, but would compromise on frightening him away from crops worth saving. A little tar on seed corn will protect it lrotn crows and other grain eating birds and vermin, nnd to protect your melons and ground pens yon have only to stretch some white twine about the field a few feet irotn the ground over the rows of plants. The twino suggests a trap to the crow and he will usually give it a wide borth. Many of our farmers use twine to protect their corn in spring nnd think it less troublesome than applying tar to the seed at planting time.—Amer ican Agriculturist. , V.':I;:AT EXPERI.MESTS . Trials for three years, made at the Illinois station, indicate that variations in quantity of \seed between ono and two bushels per acre have less effect on yield than other conditions have. In 1S91 the largest yield was from six pecks per acre; in 1890, from four nnd from eight pecks; in 18S9, from five pecks. In 1891 sowing smnll kernels gave a larger yield than was obtained from the same weight of larger kernels, but less than from the same number of larger kernels. The kernels in tho crop from tho small seed wa3 approximately as large as those from the larger seed. In two trials no injury resulted from roll ing drilled wheat soon after sowing. The yields of fivo plats sown at inter vals of ten or twelve days, from Septem ber 2 to October 14,were all good, 30.8, 36.4 bushels per acre. It-is not certain that they wcro affected by the date of sowing. If tho last sown plats bo ex cepted there was no appreciable dif ference in tho time of ripening and very little including it. Selected wheat kernels were planted in rows one foot apart, one kernel for each inch, in three plats of threo rows each. In each plat of thico rows the wheat was covered one inch, three Inches or five inches. Tho yield dimin ished with the increased depth of plant ing. The results of all the trials with com mercial fertilizers on wheat at the station indicato that such fertilizers aro not profitable on the black prairie soils of Central Illinois New York \World. HEAVE S I N HOUSES . • Heaves in horses is somewhat similar to asthma in man, it being o f a spas modic character, and is always aggra vated by the use of dusty and musty hay, FAR M AN D GARDEN NOTES. Eggs in tho incubator should not handled too much. In winter it is quito an item to havo tho poultry nests as warm as possible. Havo tho chicken nests reasonably deep and plentifully supplied with clean straw. Tho object in caponizing is to improve-' the quality and increase the weight of the fowl. To keep tho chickens healthy tho broodor must be kept clean. Use dry sand or bran to sprinkle over the floor, and this should be changed often enough to keep clean. Feed soft feed ia vessels. To dry-pick fowls without tearing them the work must be dono as soon as possible after they aro killed and while the bodies are still warm. If properly dono the fowls will present a plumper appearance. Moisture is tho agency which destroys most shingle roofs, nnd moss encourages moisture. If well seasoned shiuglcs be dipped in lime wash and dried before laying they will last much longer, never allowing the growth of moss. On the farm wo have \life freo from conversational restraints, plenty of fresh air, suushine, butter, eggs, and cream, glorious sunsets—these aro among the charms that do not lose^their attractive ness in the vistas of memory.\ If trees aro heeled in the fall for spring setting, care must be taken to separate ana to Ece that the soil is well filled in around the roots and that thor ough drainage is provided. If this is done this is the best plan to follow. The beneficial effects of a clover sod arc not confined to tho nitrogen it con tains; the mechanical effect in loosening the soil, especially heavy soils, is an im portant item,andit also serves as a mulch in retaining moisture in time of drought. Ducks aro growing in popularity among our farmera, some keeping fewer chickens nnd increasing tho number of ducks. Rightly macaged the duck is a wonderful fowl, oho that makes for the farmer a good deal more than he feeds it. Many a nice calf skin is sold for fifty cents or less, an especially \green\ one often as low as twenty-five cents. Tanned with tho hair on, by the aid of alum and salt, it would bo oxcellent for mit tens, vests to keep out wind, and for caps. Turn a ram in with a lot of ewes and never take him out to feed and water— the result is you have .1 lot of small, weak, sickly lambs, besides you ruin your ram for future use as a lamb getter and at lambing time you will havo lots of trouble. Axtell, when a colt, was fed during the winter on corn stalks and oats. Tho stalks do not seem to have injured his wind or speed; still there are many who claim that stalks arc unfit tor horse fee d and should be thrown away rather than used for that purpose. A breeder declares that it a cow should be born without a tail she might be used as the founder of a family of tailless cattle. A pure bred Shorthorn heifer was born hornless. Several of her calfs were also born polled, thoso were care fully saved.and in time a strain of polled Shorthorns were produced. When you are short of funds don't trj to raise them by an increase of acreage, but by increaso of care bestowed in put ting in crop. There is nothing gained by killing your teams and your soil. Plow deeper, harrow liner, sort over youi seed better, cultivate better, and your crops will bring more money. When horses are going into tho barn it is well to give a little food, such as roots or mashes. During the summer hor8csaro liable to take into the stomach parasites which change into different kinds of worms. These must bo expelled or the horso will not thrive during tho winter, and it is necessary to keep young horses growing all the time. For horses timothy hay is preferred, but clover is better for cows. Cows will givo more milk from clover and thrive better than upon timothy, but in order to keep them in full flow of milk they should have a variety, and if cnsilugo can bo provided it will bo found an excellent' addition to tho ration. If not ensilage, they will relish roots, turnips, mangels, or carrots. The Houdan and white Plymouth rocks mako a good cross for excellent layers and table poultry. Where there is a de mand for cross-breeds this cross will be found a good one, and a few pens of such fowls will bo usoful and profitable. Usually the demand for market chickens exceeds tho supply, and few fanners or breeders care to place their surplus of high-class stock in the market at market rates. Feeding like any other investment of monoy, should pay tho proper interests on tho capital used. If tho animal fed ' cannot pay back a fair interest on the ! cost of food, both should be applied to more remunerative uses—tho capital transferred and tho animal converted into cash to be profitably applied. Nearly every f armor in America and else where loses tho interest of the monoy in vested in, unprofitable live-stock.
