r|Hr I Wash Your Lemons. 'Please put those lemons in a dish H neater and let them stay there ten or fifteen minutes befbre you use them," said a tn tkn nam Vinnonmoi'l whn wm It.

The girl looked somewhat surprised, and the lady continued, "I do not suppose that many people step to think about it, but the outside of a lemon is anything but clean. If you will look at it you will see some tiny black spots like scales all over .it. These are the eggs of an insect, and J the lemon is not washed they are very likely to become an ingredient of whatever dish the lemon is used for. For years I have made the practice of clean IIng all tbe lemons 1 use witn a small | crub brush kept for the purpose, then dropping tbem into a dish of water to remain five or ten minutes before using." -?Boston Transcript. jffB?

DRIVING A HORSE. The kind of rein used depends on the kind of horse that is driven. Some free drivers that are somewhat skittish would need a tight rein; others that are quiet and hold their heads well up may be driven with a loose rein, but it is safest always that the driver should keep the animal well in hand, for no one can know what may happen to cause the horse to shy or stumble, when before the driver can get control of the horse it might bolt fonco on New York Times. PUMPKINS AS POOD. Many farmers grow large crops of pumpkins and find quick sales for them at good prices. But we do not intend to give an account of the profit in this vegetable. We .desire to call the attention of growers of it to the valuable properties which it contains as food for stock. Carrots are considered to be the best food of its kind for stock, and immediately behind it comes the pumpkin.

It does not pay to plant fruit trees, and care for them during the season, only to have them destroyed in the winter from lack of care. Litter and weeds of any kind about the base of an unprotected tree or near by in the orchard, are simply a cordial invitation to the mice to come in and shelter themselves. Young fruit trees may be protected from girdling by rabbits by wrapping the trunk with straw, hay, or cloth for one or two feet from the ground. Pieces of corn stalks, I nnlit in halves and tififi aroand thfl tree. with the flat side next the trunk, will keep tbe rabbits from eating the bark. Rabbits girdle trees on clean ground and mice those on wet land. Should a tree be girdled, heaping earth around the fresh wound , will sometime? save the tree.?American Agriculturist. FARM AND GARDEN N0TE8. Do not let cattle or colts run in the orchard. Avoid extremes of temperature with the house plants. Some claim that the Yergennes is one of the best keeping grapes. In mulching the strawberry beds use litter that is free from weed seeds. Feeding too mucn gram is not conducive to health or egg production. bulky food is supplied the hens trill pick up much, that is, to eay the cot beneficial. t Toe; often there is an overfeeding of grain to poultry and an underfeeding of nv** bulky materials. f, life is long enough for our heartaches ttkd differences, but not long enough for Mtr love for the honey bee. One decided advantage with ducks oyar chickens is that they thrive best when |eft in large numbers. When turkeys or ducks are to be fattened rapidly it is important to confine them in tolerable close q uarters. ; A mule would rather hear himself bray than to listen to any music, from others. A good many beekeepers are built like him. i #o farmer should attempt to economize time and labor by omitting the garden from his plans for next season's The; little green gleaned from the cabbage atumps or turnip tops will not pay for the tramping done by cattle in the gardes. Although with good care the ducks will begin laying early in the winter, it if not best to have them hatch until early in the spring. ? A cow cannot make good milk from one kind of feed. There is not the material in it that constitutes the propei qualities for milk. J. 8. Woodward advises pasturing theep in orchards, ten sbeep on every sore.
