iWhen to Kill Hog*. The best time to kill hogs is just soon as the season is cold enough, winter the cost of increase in ight is greater than in summer/and j nearer the approach of the animal maturity the slower it gains in pro*tion to food consumed. ^ Plant* Affected With Insect*. iVindow plants that appear yellow do not h^ve a healthy appearance t overmat^red or affected with in:ts. The pots should be examined order to discover if the drainage perfect If is not necessary to have i earth wet, but simply moist, and allow the earth to dry some will no harm. The dust in the rooms 1 settle in the leaves of the plants, ich makes it necessary to give each I ant a thorough washing occasionally. The Solids In the Milk. Although the law may fix a miniim percentage of solids in the milk Id in market, yet milk varies accord5 to the kind of cows and the food d water allowed. It is possible to iter milk through the cow, and the lk from'one cow will vary day after y. The highest percent of solids in lk found In England when tests re made was 14.49 and the lowest ? 11.02. The proportion of fat lged from 2.20 to 4.85 percent, show\ that some of the milk was more in twice as rich in cream as others, the United States the percentage both solids and fat have been ?ter where tests have been made. Hake the Pisr Uroir. Jive tlfe young pigs a good start, will be to your interest to do so. roung pig that has once been stuntwill never wholly outgrow it, no tter how good the subsequent care y be. Any animal being grown for at should have feed enough to make jood gain every day from birth to lighter.-. If there is ever a time in t animal's life when no gain is bemade hi weight, all feed consumed ing that time is practically lost, for profit all comes from the feed t makes the gain above the amount uired to maintain the animal's ds. In other words, a certain gp amount of feed necessary to keep tne animal alive, and the profit must all ?k come from the little extra feed that P makes the gain in flesh. A young ani mal will gain more on a given quantity c. of feed than an older animal on the same feed. I * think we iright safely say thef lounger the animal the greater the gain for the feed consumed. That is why it pays better to feed young stock.?Swine Advocate. Ren* Stop Lwjrinc. There is some cause why hens sud: denly stop laying, though certainly not always a lack of food, as the cessation "m^y happen in a single day. ^Neither.is It due to disease, as the hens may be very healthy. It is nothing more nor. less than a lack of warmth, the heat produced from food ?f being necessary to keep up the ani?' mal heat, leaving nothing toward the production of eggs. E&j' 4 certain amount of heat is due the body of the fowl and should tne building not be sufficiently warm, then that food which should go toward B| producing eggs is devoted toward supglv plying heat for the body. One cold night with insufficient protection for the hens will stop their laying fox fully a week, this occasioning a loss far greater in the end than ' would have been the cost of a warm building. * Don't neglect the hens in winter if ; you expect to have them lay eggs, v.. Watch carefully for each sudden change in t?e weather and change the house Accordingly. During the day keep the hens hustling from daylight, till dark and the cold will have Hpr no effect on the egg supply. ~ Let the morning feed be very light, mr only one-third of a full meal, then it will not" be difficult to keep them [ ' busy.?Home and Fam. nj The Valae of a Clover Sod. The report of the weight of stubble and roots on a clover field after the P last crop had been taken off in the jiff: autumn, as found in the experimental farm of the late John B. Lawes at Rothamstead, England, has often been ? published, but it has been so long _r. since we have seen it that it will probably be new to many of our readers. They found in the stubble and J*; waste on the surface of the ground ? 2669 pounds per acre. In the first nine BpV inches below the surface 3017 pounds. In the next nine inches 275 pounds, and in the third nine inches" 191 pounds, or in all 6152 pounds. Accordjv ing to .analysis this vegetable matter Ik would have enough phosphoric acid for more than two average crops, enough nitrogen for more than foul* ' average crops, an?l potash enough for more than six average crops of wheat ? Thus we can see the value of a clover sod plowed - under for the wheat or corn crop.. It-the clover, which produced 500f';pounds of*hay to the acre, had been plowed In that would have v- added 108 pounds of nitrogen, 28 If pounds of phosphoric acid, 97 1-2 p pounds of potash, 96 pounds of lime and 34 1-2 pounds of magnesia, but it would certainly be more profitable ft. to feed out the clover to animals and save their excrements to use on the land.?American Cultivator. Wiftter Rhubarb. Do yon like rhubarb? Do you remember how pleasant it seemed in the early spring days when nothing like it was to be had? Would it be pleasant to have it even earlier, when the first spring fever comes on, or as winter begins to slacken its grip? Can you spare two or three hills from the garden? there ought to be plenty there, so that they will not be missed. If so, go and dig up these hills, or even one 1??11 4VA twliAn VIA orrAii?/l liu gc UlHi ai LUC uiuc nuvu iuc giuuuu freezes.

Some of the weaker crowns and roots may first be trimmed away, since they will not produce good stalks. If* there is a furnace in the cellar, long before spring comes these hills will1 produce fine stalks. They will wasta.no energv in extra leaf surface; nearly all will be bright, crispystalk. If the cellar is too cold and they are slow in coming, a barrel may be set behind the kitchen stove, one hill placed in this and a canvas thrown over the top. If the appearance of a barrel in the kitchen is obpectionable, a more pretentious cabinet may be made of lumber, which will answer the same purpose. Simply see that the eon is kept moist, and soon there will be rhubarb ready for harvesting That which remained in the c; Slcr will hi along a little ahead of that outside, even if th? cellar is cool, and in either case will well repay the slight effort needed to get it.?Fred W. Card, Rhode Island Agricultural Experiment Station. The 011 American Farms. American farmers are the most wasteful in the world, and American j farming the most wasteful business | in our wasteful country. They waste j land by keeping many acres unused on which they waste money by payI -:ng taxes. They waste their crops by r leaving a large r.oition to die and dry up in the fields, or they leave their i grain standing until wasted by wind, i rain, insects and fungi, or shock it ' and Idave it to take the weather as i it comes. They waste seed after sav| ing to feeding it in a wasteful manj ner. They waste fertility of their j fields by careless methods of cropping, ! while the home suppiy of manure is j permitted to waste oy means ui su.i I and rain. They waste their substance by buying on credit (for which privilege they pay a liberal tax in overcharge) or borrowing money for which they have to pay interest as well as principal. They waste tools and implements by leaving them exposed to weather, and then must further waste valuable time working ineffective tools. tVaste is found in the kitchen and in every department of the household as well asTn the fields and barns. The success of German farmers, Chinese farmers or farmers from any other country is mainly attributable to their practice of a system of farm economy, learned where economy or starvation were alternatives. Here the alternative is not so exacting. It is merely economy or comparative poverty. In-this country a farmer may live and emerge from the year's business without actual loss.and at the same time waste enough to feed a foreigner or several horses, or enough to fatten a beef or two, or several hogs. Rigid economy may not be actually imperative here, but it is judicious.?Farm and Ranch. To Kill Weeds. * -* *- ? -* ?- ?_i it is not quite baie iu jj i u a 5. c mw the use of chemicals for the destruction of weeds. It is possible to do more harm than good. We have known some fine trees, vines and shrubs to be killed by the careless use even of kerosene and of common salt. Mr. L. R. Jones names some solutions, with directions as to the strength and use, that- are worth preserving. "In fields," he says, "weeds can usually be killed more cheaply by cultivation or digging, and chemicles used in sufficient amount to destroy the weeds are liable to injure the grain. An exception to this lies in the use of blue vitriol to destroy kale in grain fields. It is said that a 3 percent solution of blue vitriol in water sprayed over a weedy , grain field will kill the kale without | injury to the grain. We have not ' tested this ourselves as yet, but propose to do so this summer. The hawkweed or paint-brush may form another noteworthy exception, since it is readily killed by sprinkling with salt in an amount which does not injure the grass. In general we advise ! cultivation to destroy the' hawkweed, however. Chemicals may be used most advantageously in gravel walks, drives, tennis courts, paved gutters and similar places. Common salt, applied dry, can be used for the purpose, but it requires so heavy an application that it is liable to wash into and injure adjacent grass borders. Either of the following solutions are more effective than salt, more enduring in their action and do not wash. They may be applied with | a watering pot at the rate of about eight gallons to the square rod, and one or at most two such applications during the season will entirely prevent weed growth. (a) Crude carbolic acid, one pint in four gallons of water. This is very powerful and quick acting, but not quite so lasting in effect as the next. It may be objected to on account of odor; this disappears after the first day, however, (b) Arsenate of soda, one pound in eight gallons of water, (c) White arsenic, one pound; washing soda, two pounds; water, nine gallons. Practically the same as (b), less convenient but a little cheaper.?Farm, Field and Fireside. WAYS OF CATCHING COLD. A Physician Tells of the Danger of Be- ! coming Chilled or Damp. The various ways in which a cold may be brought on are thus described , by a physician: "A little knife blade of air blowing in through a crack in 1 a window upon some part of the body ! will chill that part, and the blood ves- , sels of that region will become con tracted, affecting somewhere in the in- ; terior of the body an area in reflex ; relation with this portion of the surface of the body. "For instance, the blood vessels of the skin of the top of the shoulders and the chest are associated with the blood vessels of the lungs, so ifcat whatever happens to the blood vessels of $he skin of the shoulders and chest happens also to the blood vessels of the lungs: If there is a contraction of the blood vessels of the back of the neck, there will be a contraction of the blood vessels of the top ,of the shoulders, and the shoulder blades there will also be a contraction of the blood vessels of the lungs. When the influence of the cold is continued, this contraction is followed by congestion. "When one puts his hands into cold water for a few minutes, they are first pale and then red. This is reaction. The longer the application and the , more intense the degree of cold the greater will be the contraction and the congestion. So if the back of the neck is exposed for a long time to the Influence of cold, one is likely to have a cold in the nose and throat. If the shoulder blades and the tops of the shoulders are exposed, one is likely to take cold in the lungs and suffer from congestion of the lungs. If the cold is long continued, it may cause not only a congestion, but an inflammation of the nose or the lungs. "So if the bottoms of the feet become wet or chilled a weakness of the bladder may result if there lias ever been a trouble there, or a weakness of the stomach if there has been a catarrh of that organ.

Tradition says "woman must suffer," and young women are so taught. There is a little truth and a great deal of exaggeration in this. If a young woman suffers severely she needs treatment, and her mother should see that she gets it. Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to a physician for examination ; but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. I'inkhnm and secure the most enicirnt advice without charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass. Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South Byron, Wis., mother of the young lady whose portrait we here publish, wrote Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1399, saying her daughter had suffered for two years with irregular menstruation ? had headache all the time, and pain in her side, feet bwell. and was generally miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly replied with advice, and under date of March. 1S99, the mother writes again that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cured her daughter of all pains and irregularity. Nothing in the world equals Mrs. Pinkham's great medicine for regulating woman's peculiar monthly troubles.

Nine cases cf sodium peroxide, each weighing HO kilograms', and intended for Japan, were being unloaded, when one cf the cases exploded with a loud repoit and seriously injured a number of workmen, besides causihff a fire. The cases were merely labelled "chemicals," and under the German law it is thought se:iou3 consequences will befall the shipper. The engineer in charge of the iitiproveiuc'.t of the Yellowstone park denies that the geysers are approaching extinction. An article to this effect appeared in a French paper and was widely copied throughout the United States. It tends to create an impression that the Yellowstone wonderland, for far as regards the hot springs and geysers, is practically a thing of the past. This is an excellent example of .how a scientific observer may draw a wrong conclusion, if he has not studied the subject sufficiently. The names given to such natural, objects as geysers are very apt to be misnomers. The geyser acting on the shore of the Yellowstone lake is more vigorous than it was ten years ago. A San Francisco inventor has devoted a quaiter of a century to the perfection cf a device which he believes will store up wave power for use in running machinery, street cars, electric lights and the like. As described in brief the arrangement consists of two buoys attached under water to a plunger, and as they rise and fall with the waves they move the plunger up and down in an upright tube and compress the air therein. This tube is connected with a pipe which runs along the sea bottom to a reservoir for the compressed air. The latter can be converted into any form of power. There seem to be people with money who believe that the scheme will work and that the day is at hand when fuel will no longer be required to turn the wheels of industry. An interesting report was recently presented before a meeting of the Institution of mining engineers of Great Britain, in which the condition of a mine after being tightly closed for 15- months was described. At the reopening of the mine the air was analyzed and was found to contain 84 percent of nitrogen, 12 percent of fire-damp, and 4 I percent of carbon dioxide. These gases were greatly compressed, and it is believed that about 1,500,000 cubic feet escaped frojn the first borehole in 24 hours. The condition of the contents of the mine wa3 found to be practically the same, and no danger could be traced to the gases. Bread was dried hard like biscuit, but cooked- bacon was as fresh as when left, and the water for the horses had not evaporated. Iron had not been attacked by rust, nor was the fodder in the stables in any way changed. Automobiles in the Army. Indications continue to multiply that automobiles may be made extremely serviceable in war. The experiments conducted during the past three years by the military bureau of several nations prove that, in numerous ways, the self-propelled vehicles arc superior to those drawn by horses and that hereafter they will constitute a part of their armies' equipment. The saving of time in transportation is a matter of importance, and here the value of automobiles is greatest. For the purpose of conveying orders, transporting troops, provisions, artillery and ammunition, and for hastening the removal of wounded soldiers to hospitals the value of the new machine appears to be pretty thoroughly established. In Germany, particularly, the adaptability of motor wagons to the requirements of the battlefield has reI ?j ?~ nnviof ceiveu Vfcir.V UlUSC xuuv government has recently purchased seven automobiles for transporting food and ammunition, and in the last few years has experimented with the horseless vehicles extensively. The scarcity of horses in Italy is one of the reasons assigned for the war department's employing automobiles there to assist in carrying material from one place to another. In the Belgian C<fngo stale, wherever transportation by watef is difficult, the self-moving carriage will be used in place of boats, and regular automobile routs will be laid out. Throughout the civilized world the ability of the automobile for quick travel is being recognized by military authorities. Not- a month passes, moreover, that does not mark its improvement and development in one respect or another.?New York Sun. Story With Only One Side to It. "I remember on one occasion I had been translating a Chinese book bearing on opium-smoking, and I said to my Chinese writer and teacher: "Now, I want you, if you will, to get me some book that represents the other side." "He said: 'What other side.'" "'Why,' I said, 'there are a great many of my countrymen \yho say that opium does not do harm in all cases, but this book gives a very bad account of what opium does. I want to hear the other side.' "He said: 'There is no other side.' "I said: 'My countrymen say there is.'
