A club of 14-year-oid boys in W«bt-
ter Oafish, La., naa been organized to
compete mth one anotuer jn the culti
vation of one acre of com each. The
lad who produces the largest crop of
com on his acre is to receive five bush-
of com from each of the other members
of the club. Each selects his own acre
and manures and cultivates it to suit
himself. Suppose there ere twenty
members in the oinb; the inoky one will
receive ninrty-five busbela of com, which
will be a handsome premium. Every
member will be benefitted by an in
creased yield and tiie practical experi
ence of all secured by the contest, Why

A qbeat many farmers comfort them-

salves with the notion that if they change
sted with some other farmer they are
doing a big thing. This is a mistaken
idea. Seed should bo improved and
taken from the farm where it is grown,
and to which it has adapted itself. At
home is the place for improvement.
The idea that the little germ oi a seed
can carry the good qualities of a good
farm with it is ridiculous; but it can
carry with it peculiarities in its nature
(growth and maturity) acquired in one
place,which will be unsuited to another.
We therefore advise farmers to improve
the seed in their own land by careful se
lection of the best ears for planting.
Tun commonly received advice to or-
ebardists to scrape tbs rough bark from
old apple trees has been contradicted,
some having tried it and concluded that
the practice did more harm than good.
The rough bark is a protection to the
tree irom sudden changes of tempera
ture. The benefit often claimed from
scraping trees comes from the greater
attention paid to them in other respects
by men who take this trouble. White
washing apple trees is equally ineffect
ual for good.
Philosophy op Bread M xino—That
cookery is being placed on the basis of
the higher education of women, end is
being considered one of the fine arts,
is something to be realized by every
young woman who intends to assume
the duties of a well-kept home and a
well-fed household Perhaps there is
no more Important branch in the prt ■
cess of culinary development than that
of bread making, or any that requires
more practice and care. The Americans
have more kinds of bread than any
other nation, yet they do not always
have better, and generally not as good
as is often found in other countries.
There are many ways of making bread,
by mixing with yeast, by using leaven,
by salt-rising or milk yeast, and by
mixing the flour with water charged
with carbolic add, called erated bread.
Yeast bread is by far the most healthful
and economical of all modes of maaing
it Leaven, which one associates
more with cookery described in Biblical
literature, is a paste, made of flour and
water and allowed to soar. Sometimes
housekeepers and bakers keep a piece
of the risen dough for the next bread
mixing, and this is leaven. To obtain
good results in bread making we must
begin with yeast if we would have that
kind of bread. The following reliable
recipe may be useful to some:
The conveyanee of pollen from one
flower to another in cross-iertilization is
effected naturally by the wind or by the
agency of insects and other creatures.
Flowers that require the aid of insects
usually offer some attraction to their
visitors in the shape of bright color.fra-
grance or sweet juices. The color and
markings of a flower often serve to guide
the insects to the honey,in the obtaining
of which they are compelled either to
remove or deposit pollen.
Fresh, clean hog’s lard rubbed three
or four times on any kind of waits on
horses or cattle will remove them on
three or four applications. I have re
moved the warts time after time, and
have never been able to find the wart
for the fourth application. If I should
send the Latin name for lard and tell
men to pay fifty cents to the druggists
for about two cents worth of good iard
this remedy would be oftener used.
The old-fasbioued idea that exposing
stock to the cold iu winter hardened
them had at least this basis of truth: It
took oil' the soft spots and left only the
bones and skin. Besides, it destroyed
the less hardy animals, and though
oiten stunting the growth of those that
lived, they had generally a capacity for
endnring cold. The small shaggy Shet
land ponies are examples of what this
method will do for horses; but this is a
direction in which low horsemen will
wish to breed.
Rescued from Agonizing Death.
JNew Yoke —Mr. James White. 1652
Broadway, formerly chief instructor tu
Dickels’ hiding School, in this city, said
to a newspaper reporter “1 broke
my shoulder, arm and elbow, splitting the
socket m four parts. Rheumatism set in
and 1 employed the best physician. He
tried everything, but I grew worse, and at
last be said: T have one more thing to try
and if that fails nothing can give you re
lief, and that is St. Jacob’s OIL’ I used
this great pain-reliever, and am able to
use my arm, free from all rheumatic trou
ble. I have also recommended the reme

case they nave been speedily and effectual

HUMOROUS.
It was in the Uarolina backwoods, a
country couple and a country parson.
Though a Baptist, the minister wore an
old surplioe. When he had finished
the oeremony, he said:
“An* them ’uns whom God hath
joined—”
“Stop thar, parson,” said the groom;
“don’t say them ’uns, say these ’uns I”
“John,” said the parson, “I teoh you
at school and I say them ’una.”
“These ’nns,” shouted the groom,
drawing his pistol.
The parson, seeing the movement,
fired through his surplioe, and the
groom dropped dead—winging the par
son as he went down. There was a
lively*fusilade of perhaps thirty shots.
When the smoke cleared away a half
dozen men were on the floor. The
bride, peeping over the pulpit, to which
she had fled for refuge, gazed mourn
fully on the scene and said:
‘•Them a-self-oookin’ pistols is a play
in’ with my prospecks 1”
Before repapenng a wall it is best
to remove the old paper. This is a
troublesome operation. Moisten a por
tion of the wall at a time to soften the
paper and paste and then scrape it off.
When it is desired to paper over a
whitewashed surface, first scrape off
the loose lime, fill cracks with plaster
of paris and apply with a brush a sizing
made by adding eight ounces of dissolv
ed glue to a pailful of hot water. Hard-
finished walls may be washed with soap
and water and wiped dry. Grease spots
on wall-paper can sometimes be remov
ed by applying a thick paste of boiling
hot starch spread thickly on the spot,
then allowed to dry and rubbed off with
a soft cloth. Other stains may be out
out with a sharp knife and a piece of
clean paper matched on.

Tub European average of beets io
about twelve tons to the acre, from
which is extracted over a ton of sugar.
France nearly supplies all her sugar
from beets, and Germany is venturing

failures, but the cause is attributed to
lack of knowledge as to the best and
cheapest method of producing the beets

The first and most important consid
eration iu selecting a spot for the gar

is a very gentle inclination toward the

How to pHBPAim Yeast.—Take three
good sized potatoes, pare them and
place them in cold water. Take a small
much of boos i nd one quart of buillUK
water, and boil in r< porcelain or enam
eled sauce-pan, and not in tin. Mix a
quarter of a cup of sugar with a quarter
of a cup of flour, and two tablespoons of
salt Into this mixture grate the pota
toes, this keeps them from turning
dark, and then pour on the boiling hop
water strained and stir steadily. If the
potato doei not thicken like a thin
pasts, put it all in a double boiler and
cook a trifle till it does thicken, train
the whole, and when lukewarm add one
cup of old, yet good, yeast Let it rise
until it is foamy and bottle with care.
