Hint:nn Fat. 1 Human fat is composed ot seventynine per cent, cprbon, a little over eleven per cent, hydrogen and a little over nine per cent, oxygen. Of course this fat cannot be accumulated unless its ingredients are taken into the body in food. . The food which has a oreoonaeranco of these ingredi ents can be worked off by open-ftir exercise, because the oxygen of the cir uniting with the carbon goes out of the lungs in the form of carbonic gas and relieves ine system of so much fat. This is tho reason why people who lead an out-door life or who live in the country or on mountains and breath a great deal of fresh air are less liable to be corpulent +han business men, shopkeepers and others ^vho are habitually in an atmosphere with less oxygen and who take less exercise. Open-air exerci.sc is one of the best ways to work off fat.?Chicago Her* aid*.

It lias long been held that red pepper is excellent for laying liens. No doubt it is invigorating, and is beneficial during the spring senson, but to give as much as a teaspoouful to a tloek of a dozen fowls is feeding it too largely. If a few pinches are added to k quart of food it 'will bo ample. A 'mixture of red pepper and ground saffron is better than the pepper alone. ?American Poultry Yard. TCEEECTTLOt'S CATTLE. Experiments have been made recently by the British Board of Health with the milk and fiesh of tuberculous cattle for the purpose of testing the effect upon animals fed with such flesh and milk. The results have been that the milk did not convey the infection to guinea pigs thus fed, but the flesh did. And even when the milk was taken from the cows whose udders were tuberculous it had no injurious results. This, however, is contrary to | previous experience and the general belief,and is by no means satisfactory. The greatest danger is from milk, and,' as persons are of more value than i fniinea nice, the nossible danger is so O I U " * ? serious a matter tliat risks are not to lie taken, although these little animals may have escaped the infection. No tuberculous cow should be permitted to supply mill; for human consumption, and dairymen and the public generally should be on their most careful guard against the danger.?American Dairyman. PROVIDING AGAINST A DROUGHT. The matter of preparing some kind of green food to help out the pastures during the possible drought should always be considered by the farmer and dairyman. The soiling process is most commonly adopted and always brings good results. Corn is most commonly used for this purpose and should always be sown in drills, not broadcast. Indeed, corn sown in this way may be allowed to attain almost its full growth and bear, perhaps, a small nubbin or ear of corn, and in due time be cured to serve for winter feed. Indeed, some prefer the checkrow system for corn for soiling purposes, rather than to drill it, and they put the rows about twice as thick as they would for the ordinary corn crop or, if in drills, provide fo.: one stalk about every four inches. When harvested, the whole stalk, nubbins and all, should be run through a fodder cutter and will prove to be a very excellent ration when the fodder erasses are drv and have lost their nutriment.?New York Independent. TOt'GH HORSES. It is not infrequent that a liorse is found that has outlasted two or three generations of horses and practically worn out half a dozen other horses that seemingly were as tough as he was, says the National Stockman. Nearly evarv farm has an old stand-by that has taken his turn at all the hard knocks of farm work, has had the same usage as any of the other horses, and has stood u full share of the ills and mishaps consequent upon a farm life, and is still hale and hearty and able to wear out lots of the younger horses. Why one horse will outlive, outworK and be more serviceable than another is a question that is hard to answer. There are several things which may havo a hearing to the answer to this question. First, a horse with perfect conformation is not liable to wear out Boon. Second, a good, quiet disposition in a horse prevents worry and fretfulness. Third, good digestive organs go a long way towards maintaining the bones andsinewp of an animal, and thus add both to utility and longevity. Fourth, ','ojd breeding. There is nothing which guarantees the qualities in a horse which are conducive to a long life and usefulness as docs good breeding The staying qualities of most iiorses consist of the good blood they ,earry, although they muy inherit it from ancestors. These points may be well worth renumbering when the purchase of a horse is contemplated, o, when the breeding of a horse is uelnj considered. klfctiucity in farming. Sir "William Siemens, of England, lias becu conducting experiment!! in the uac of electricity in farming, and reached the following conclusions: "1. Thai electric light is both efficacious in producing chlorophy.'l in the leaves of plants and in promoting growth. , "2. That a light center,' equal to 3100 candles, placed at a distance of two meters from growing plants/ appears to equal in effect average daylight in February ; but more economical effects can be attained by more powerful light centcrs. "3. That carbonic acid and the nitrogenous compounds generated in diminutive quantities in the electric arc produce no sensible deleterious effects upon plants inclosed in the same Bpnce. <;4. That plants do not appear torequire a period of rest during the twenty-four hours of the day, but make increased and vigorous progress if subiecteddurinrr davtime to sunliirht, and during the night to electric light, i "5. That the radiation of heat from powerful electric arcs can be made available to counteract the effect oi' ( night frost. k< "6. That "while under the influence of electric light, plants can sustain increased stove heat without collapsing, % circumstance favorable to forcing by clcctric light. "7. That the light is efficacious in i hastening the development of flowers and fruits. The flowers produced by ' its aid are remarkable for intense coloring, and the fruit both for bloom and aroma without apparent augmentation of the saccharine constituent*. it . r M "8. That the expense of electro-horticulture depends mainly upon tho cost of mechanical energy, and is very moderate wlien natural sources of such energy as waterfalls can be made available." rOLE bean's witiiort poles. I plant two rows about thirty inches apart and about one hundred feet in length; between these I stretch a wire on the top of two stakes that I place in the ground about a foot and a half farther out than the rows extend. The ' two rows are j?] anted zig-zagging, four feet apart. I then tako a ball of sheep twine and tie the end to the stake where the wire is fastened. Then I run the twin.e down to the hill where I have placed a wire hook and hook the twine on this, then carry it up and over the wire and down to the hill on the other side of the wire, placing it under the hook and bo on until all is done. The cost is only about one-half of what it is to set poles. Then, too, the vines never ian dock ; xney buck io me twine until they are taken off in the fall. The wire is the size of a fence j wire; the hook may be of the same I size, ten inches long and pressed into j the ground in or close to every hill. After the twine is strung I press the hook down to the ground. Now the twine will fltretch and sag, but in order to take up the slack I use edging6l get at the saw mill, cutsomewhat longer than the distance from the ground up to the wire, then I drive a nail through them and clinch like the figure X. These 12>lace under the wire at intervals of ten to twelve feet. When the twine stretches, as it will, the legs of these supports may be drawn closer together, thus taking up all the sag. I have used this way of poling beans for three years past, and I like it very much better than setting a pole at every hill.?Rural New Yorker. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Corn is the great ensilage plant. Let the market be as near as possible. After all, the hen is the best incubator. Never give the chickens food which has soured. Keep the other fowls away from the setting hens. Overfed poultry become subject to liver disease. Farm pijoducts well packed are already half sold. The chicks should be carefully examined for lice. Green corn is good food for laying liens in hot weather. In potato raising commercial fertilizers are profitable. Lice are to be looked for on the head and under the wings. The opponents of ensilage are growing fewer every year. Tainted food fed to chicks will affect the flavor of the eggs. All fruit growers should have 6omc means of cold storage. Strong soapsuds applied hot will rid the poultry house of lice. There is never any difficulty in selling a good quality of butter. Heliotrope is a very satisfactory bloomer during the summer. Pear orchards should not be cultivated after the middle of July. Bees can always be united without fighting if they are first made queenless. It is said that beans are about the most profitable crop to grow in tfie orchard. Young chicks should be kopt shaded from the 6un and sheltered from storms. Cleanliness is a preventive of many diseases in the hen house as well as in the home. Farmers are beginning to admit that their wives are right and that there is money in poultry. Raising chickens is a profitable industry, if they are properly fid and kept steadily growing. Oatmeal boiled in milk until dry anil mixed with powdered bread crumbs is excellent for chicks. Sow a corner of the farm with mammoth Russian sunflowers. There iB no better seed for the poultry. Cheese-makers differ as to the de gree of ripeness the milk should reach before the rennet is added. wnen nens Begin to eox meir feathers, something is wrong and their food should be varied at once. More manure is wasted on the farm than any other article, yet it is ono of the most valuable of the products. The chick needs no further food than that contained in the egg from whioli it was hatched for the first twenty-four hours. Brown Leghorns, Barred Plymouth Bocks and Light Brahma6 rank among the best breeds for those qualities demanded in high-class poultry, Paralysis in chickens is due to overfeeding and lack of exercise. Give less food and make the fowls scratch for a large part of their living. Plymouth Rocks and the" light Brahmas are rivals for public favor. Each has its advocates, but the best judges generally prefer the Plymouth Bocks. If you are eager for fruit plant dwarf trees in your orchard so as to get the fruit early, but if the<orchard is planted to last, the standard trees are alone worth consideration. English farmers say that sheep, like other animals and human beings, require change of scene, and that the removal from one pasture to another without waiting till the grass is exhausted i? beuetioiftL , T SECTS AT THE FAIR.

The Methodist Church has the most exten fiSSS. fiive collections of l||l religions posscsM\\f aions, but the Young Men's Christian Association gives the best evidence of the real work it is doing. The association has a space seventeen by fifty feet in size, subdivided into five sections. Two of these show the general work of the association, one the educational, one the international and the last the college, railroad and training school work. It will bo news to most persons that the association conducts a school of artistic and manual training, which is quite as systematic and complete as A COLLECTION OF THE VARIOUS T. M. C. A. BUILDINGS OF THE WORLD. many of the regularly organized day schools of this character. Of course, this work of the association is done at night when men and boys who receive its benefits are at leisure. It costs them nothing except in cases where a small fee would be a stimulus to the student and is within his means. There are forty-two of these training schools in the United States. The curriculum includes everything from the simplest mechanical drawing and wood carving to elaborate designing and the construction of tools, machinery, furniture, etc. Such anomalies as a piece of delicate wood carving by a fireman, and an architectural drawing by a laborer, are among the samples of work shown, illustrating wonderful possibilities.

The portable pulpit, which the eloquent George Whitefield carried about the country 125 years ago, stands across the aisle in the midst of an exhibit prepared by the American Tract Society. This interesting relic was set up in roads or fields, on Sundays as well as week days, and has participated in some of the most stirring scenes man ever saw. Its four slender legs support a platform about three feet square. The legs are carried upward to a height of six feet from the ground and constitute the corner poste of an inclosurc within which the preacher stood. Locking himself within, his enthusiasm was kept under control. The parts were held together by hinges, and, like the Arab's tent, could be folded up and stowed away under a wagon seat All out doors was needed to hold the audiences of this wonderful orator, and wherever he planted his pulpit vast crowds flocked around it.

A pitiful story in real life is that of Frederick Walters, an old German lens polisher of Philadelphia, and his old crazy wife. The old man, after suffering tortures from cancer of the stomach, died two weeks ago while sitting in a chair near a window. From the moment of his death until the discovery was made a few days ago that he had died, the demented wife had placed the same plate of victuals on the table before him day after day. "When in the end she was told that her husband was dead, she replied: "Get the ashman to take him away in the ash barrel." The old woman's mind became impaired a few years ago, at the death of her only daughter, and she spent her time sitting at an open window waiting for her child to come back.
