BIG Rfi&TS IN LOKDO.V, Fa halo as Prices Paid far Domiciles la Aris* tocratic Quarters. Pretty nearly everybody understands. of course, tii.it bouse rents are very considerably greater In London thsn they arir iiv provincial towns arid that In the metropolis they vary greatly and are very stiff in the regions where society hovers. lint a writer In Tit-Bits ventures to think that even few Londoners have much idea of the enormous fia|res paid for the rentals of fashionabu^ houses in Belgravia and Mayfair or realize how few square yards of the west end it takes to produce a million sterling in this way. . "Now, take^ to start with, Park lane, that highly fashionable thoroughfare. It is rather staggering to learn that $50,000 a year is really not at all a very extravagant rent to pay for a good house In this quarter. The plain, simple fact of the matter is, however, V that you cannot get a decent house here for' less than $15,000, and even such a one would only have three or ? four bedrooms and. generally speaking, ^ would not have greater accommodation than a house at $250 or $300 a year in the suburbs or at half that p price in a provincial town. Gros venae square and Berkeley square are renowned headquarters of spclety, which pays astonishingly for |V - Its residence there. Consider the former first. The whole square comprises fewer than sixty I houses, bat it is a fact that their combincd annual rental is about $750,000. Big as the rents are, getting a house Iiere is a matter of great difficulty, and -seldom Is there one to let for long. Nothing can be got for less than $5,000 a year, and fc^m ^is.-figure an in^ tending tenantsma^ gcucKto $30,000 ** - - - - J& a year. Berkeley square Is likewise difficult j?y to get into. It is rather old fashioned and severe# and the average man or r - woman tvfm t^e cflun$ry might not be gj?.: able to see anything about the houses / which would justify a heavy drain bef-. . Ing made tpx>n?a tenant's pocket But 5: all the same, houses here are always *??. at a premium, and you will not get much of a residence for $2,500 a year, nor yet, so far as that goes, is the accommodation very astonishing if $10,: 000 a year is paid. ??--, St James square is another ultra I fashionable quarter which a millionaire might have-to wait years to get into if he desired to live there?$15,000 or $20, bOO a year Is quite a moderate I rent for a house so situated?while Norfolk House, where the Duke of Norfolk *rfcs!des, and such others as Lord Derby's residence, at 33, would easily realize $50,000 a year in rent Carlton House terrace, where statesmen amb-embassadors < live, also costs Its tenants dearly. At least $20,000 a year most be paid for anything good In this particular neighborhood, and Mr. Astcg* gave more than $300,000 when he purchased one of the houses In the terrace, formerly occupied by Lord Granville. Yet the ordinary man would remark that the houses are not even semidetached and that outwardly, at all events, they are far from imposing: S IV&re Philippine Jewels.

The Right Kind of a Rone. A hog with a weak leg and a poo foot is not a profitable hog for th feeder, for, when a hog's foot Is sot and he is lame, he does not fatten c grow, hence the imi>ortance of bavin good feet and strong flinty bone in on commercial hog. The butcher has n use for 10 or 20 lbs more of l>one t each hog. Large, coarse, spongy bor has had its day and is not wanted hot ' by anyone. The experiment statioi have conclusively proved the fact thi the bone of the animal can b? hardens [ strengthened and improved by th food given. Bone meal can be fed t hogs in some instances profitably an is recommended by some, but woo ashes will answer all purposes and ea be had mostly without any outlay c money. 7mproving Hard Soil. In the field which I sowed to clove there was a corner that was so dr; and such stiff clay that it would no produce either grass or grain. Wher ever it got a little dry it would becom so hard that no crop would grow on il I used it for setting my corn stove on last spring and there were a fe\ shatterings left on it in the sprinj When 1 sowed my clover I scattere seed over that patch, as well as th other part of the field. I noticed tha the clover grew better there than o: any other part of the field. I am o the opinion that such land may b made to yield good crops by scatter ing a thin coating of straw of otlie rough fodder on it and sowing t clover. The mulch will hold moistur sufficient to grow clover, and th clover crop and the mulch are l>otli in clined to loosen the soil and cause i to bold moisture-^ afterwards.?A. J Legg, in The Epit&Btst. A Device to Save the Swjirm. Every person who has kept bees ha had a varied experience as to savin; the escaped or escaping swarms. Som are sure to get away tlje best one ca; do. A writer in the GermaQtown Tele graph tells his method as follows: "I have used a device like this: Tak a piece of board, say 10 or 12 Inche square: bore nine or ten inch holes ii it, and in each of these holes stick i corncob. Get a light stick 14 to IS fee long, insert one end. in this beard, an< when your bees swarm elevate tlies cobs, and carry it around among tli< bees where they seem to t>e thickest and they are quite sure to settle oi them. Then you have only to empt: them down before the already prepare* hive. You see, this saves climbing int< trees, cutting off limbs and loweriiq them down, which needs a carefu hand, and even then, for one eatise o: another, they are jarred off, and th< work has to b? done over. This schemi simplifies matters, is very practical, ii easily done, and there is no patent oi it" Proper Supports for Tomatoes. It is better for the plant and bettei in keeping the fruit clean and health} to have an adequate support for thi main stalk. As soon as the fruit be conies heavy it will either break dowi the plant or bend it so" as to rest on th< ground; if the latter, it is liable to de cay. The common way is to tie a Urn stake; wooden barrel hoops are usee and sometimes one long strip of boart is made to support five or six plants, j writer in Orange Judd Farmer suggest: that for garden use where only a feu tomato plants are set, some kind of ai inclined support or trellis will giv? better results than tying the plants t< a stake or letting them fall to tht ground in a tangled mass. "In the use of stakes," says the writ er, "tliey will require frequent tyings and, when not supported they fall t< the ground. By contact with the sol or in the absence of a free circblatioi of air. or in the humid atmosphere, tin fruit often decays before it is ripe, o when partly ripened. This trouble ii entirely avoided or greatly lessened t>: the use of a simple support." A trellis suggested by L. D. Shook, is simpl: four or five strips of boards two o three inches wide, nailed to crosspfece as shown. The upper end of cros: strips has an inch hole bored in eaci one, into which short supports an placed. By another method quit similar the supports are hinged to tin main frame, rendering it more portabl and easy for storing away. In eithe: plan various angles may be obtained Set the rows of plants east aud west placing the support close to the plant: upon the north side. One advantage of these supports i: that they are portable and can be kep over from year to year. Keeping Chickens In Good Health. There is but little use to study di rections for feeding poultry unless thei can be kept healthy. Three-fourth: and perhaps more of the diseases o poultry are due to the one cause, filth Much has been said by poultry writ tTS uuuui iuc ucvrsoiy ui ixtrfjMiij their sleeping quarters clean, removing the droppings under the roosts. au( using kerosene about roosts, nest boxe: and walls, or spraying with keroseni emulsion or carbolic acid to keep dowi the insect pests." until it seems as i we might think every one who keepi poultry had learned that lesson. Bu there is another point on which les: has been said and which is more ne glected by the poultry keepers than i has been by the writers, and that ii having clean yards for them. Then is no better way to do this than t< spade or plow up the yard each year and in the fall sow rye on it, keepinj the hens out of it, or giving them th< run of but a part of it during the wir ter. This cleanses the soil, and givei the hens green feed In the spriug Where one can have two yards t< each house It Is an improvement t< let the hens use them alternately, dt voting one each year to the growing o su*'h crops as lettuce, cabbage, rapt etc., to throw over into the other.

When wool Is in fair demand ' at reasonable prices it should pay for the keep of the sheep, with interest on the investment, and sometimes a little profit additional, li the wool Will do this why should tt former risk for ?r more? Sometimes the cry is heard o that Wool does not pay. What is 0 mennt by this generally Is that a cer>r tain good profit from the wool alone S j cannot be made each year over and ir j above expenses. Even if wool does 0 | not pay in this way the sheep cau he 0 j made to pay. If the wool will bring e in enough to pay for the keep of the v j sheep nnd the interest, look at the 18 ' profits that should be made In many I other ways. The lambs should then represent clear profit, and after the e ewe has seen its best days of useful0 ness there is always a market for It. ^ Here is another profit that is not eomd monly counted in, for the cost of the n ewe is figured upatso much a year,and ' the price received for it hardly seems to pay for the keeping. One must, in order to be fair with the sheep, figure out the different r? profits from the wool, the lambs nnd y the mutton. It is a poor year, indeed, * when the wool cannot be made to pay l" for the keep of the sheep, and With e prices as they are now* it can be made to bring in a good deal more, one c lnan of course makes more in tnis v way than another, because he is able ?* to study the economy of feeding better, and sometimes the conditions for ralse ing food cheaply are in his favor. But no one who attempts to raise sheep n for a living can afford to neglect Inti' mate and constant study of this side e of the question. The feeding that will keep the sheep in good condition and r cost the least possible s*im Is what we 0 are all aiming at. The lambs should c I be made a regular part *of the crop, e ! almost as regular as the wool, and the '* lambs must be raised at the right seas* ous to bring the greatest profit. A good ewe that will drop a lamb regularly and rear it without trouble is a desirable animal. But there is always : a tendency to keep good ewes that pros ! duce valuable wool and good lambs ? ! too long. Remember that the carcass e of the ewe itself ?s a part of the business, and do not keep the animal so long that it will die on your hands or hare no marketable value. It is better 9 to raise a few crops of wool and lambs 8 from her, and then send her to market, 1 raising meanwhile a good lamb to 1 : take her place. In this way we keep t j up a constant change in the personnel 1 | of the flock, and never have any old 9 j creatures that have outlived their useu ! ?
