MiMI AB? TO KILL THE THISTLE. One of the worst enemies of the farmer is of the Canadian thistle. It works more injury every year to farms in this country than many other causes to which attention is given. It spreads slowly apparently, but it sooner or later takes full possession of the land and unless eradicated the entiro farm becomes worthless. The heavier seeds, which are carried by winds, will germinate, but its progress is by me?ns of long white root stocks, which are proof against disease and seasons. It is claimed that a piece of root stock if left in the soil will grow from six to ten feet in a season and from each small piece as many as sixty heads will grow. The best season for beginning the war on thistles is in June. Plough the, land and then plough again every few weeks until well into the fall.^the object being to destroy the young growth as fast as it appears, as any plant must succumb if deprived of forming leaves, as plants breathe through the agency of the leaves. Another plan is to allow them to grow until the plants are just high enough to mow- and then run the mower over the field, repeating the work as fast as the plants appear. As the farmer may prefer to utilize the land he can plough the land and plant it to potatoes. If he will then give the potato crop frequent cultivaJ tion he will destroy many of the thistles and the potatoes will pay for the labor. It may not be possible to subdue the thistles the first year, but if the work is well (Tone the thistles may be completely destroyed the second year, when the ground should be ploughed in the spring and a crop of early cabbages grown, removing the cabbage crop and broadcasting the land, after ploughing and harrowing with Hungarian grass seed. As Hungarian grass seed grows rapidly and may be mowed once a month it gives the thistles but little chance, while the present cultivation of the cabbage crop will have greatly reduced the thistles in number. The point is to keep the thistles cut down from July to frost, after which they will be under control. The roadsides must also be carefully attended to, for it is on the uncultivated roadsides that weeds are neglec- j ted and hence arc protected. Neigh- j bors should also work harmoniously in tne destruction 01 weeus, as irequenuy somo negligent farmer injures the entire community by producing the seeds j of weeds which are carried by the winds over a large area. Weeds may also be carried long distances on the tops of railroad cars or by water; in fact, there are so many modes of distribution that it is almost impossiblefor any farmer to escape the nuisance of weeds, but all farmers can prevent their spread, and in protecting his neighbor he also protects himself. The Canada thistle is not so great a nuisance as many suppose if farmers will determine to combat its spread.?Chicago Chronicle. GOOD MILCH COWS. Good milch cows are quite a source of profit on the farm. And no matter how good the breed, unless cows have proper food and a sufficiency of fresh water daily, they cannot produce a great quantity of milk. All cow owners should study these questions if they wish to get the best results. Grass is one of the most imnortant croDS. Red clover is the favorite crop. Next to grass is corn fodder. Carrots, beets, peas, and apples are all good. Every farmer should grow carrots and beets; they are far the best milk-producing vegetables. Grow and feed yellow carrots to improve the color of the butter. The quantity required for a cow can only be determined by trial. See to it that the cows are in perfectly goou health, which will enable them to receive full benefit from their feed, give perfect digestion, and- produce more milk and butter. Water is a necessity to cows, and it should be pure, cool, and' always within their reach. Water before feeding and let the heaviest feed be at night. Salt is another necessity, and about an ounce and a half eV?rtiilrl ho mi'vo^ nrifh thoi'r fnnH /loilv will not permit the drones to pass through, hence the reason for destroying the drone brood. Such an arrangement will give the queen plenty of room in which to deposit her eggs and the worker bees will continue to store honey and to care for their brood in the super above. As soon as this brood has hatched, the operation of exchanging frames should be repeated, not only once but again and again, until the press of brood rearing is over. This plan is equally as successful as extracting the honey from the frames of the hive proper. The colony is not weakened by having more or less of its unsealed brood destroyed. The bees are not distressed or excited, and there is no danger of robbing them of needed stores in case, of a sudden dearth of honey.?Millie Honoker, in American Agriculturist. CROP BOUND FOWLS. Some of the fowls that have free range during the summer months are very likely to become crop bound* This J condition is caused by their eating j long strands of frost killed gras3, which wind into a ball and gradually include within their lttids all that enters the crop. The fowl eats ravenously, but the food does her no good, as nothing can pass beyond the crop; if not relieved she must soon starve. If taken in hand at the start, the congested food can be made to pass by kneading with the fingers, but the fowl's condition is not likely to be noticed until her crop is quite full, and the violent choking-like efforts call attention to the case. The remedy then is to take a sharp penknife and make an incision into the crop, large enough to clean out its entire contents easily. Wash the crop out with warm water, and then with a | fine needle and silk thread sew up the i opening, also the incision in the outer skin. Put the fowl in a coop alone, feed her on soft feed, and in a few days she will be all right.?New York Tribune Farmer. CLEANING HARNESS. Whether the harness is black or brown, a very little cleaning material should be used, and a great deal of elbow-grease in polishing. Too much composition or blacking "gums" the harness, and cause it to crack and work badly. Harness that gets ini to this condition should be well > washed with soda water, sponged dry, given a good coat of dye and oil, and hung up for a few days for the oil to penetrate the leather before being cleaned in the ordinary way. A lump of bees-wax rubbed over the polishing brush increases durability and the waterproof qualities of the blacking. After the whole of the harness has been cleaned, metal and leather, rub it over with a soft duster or old silk handkerchief to remove finger-marks, etc., paying special attention to the winkers, pad, collar and other patent leather parts, which require no other cleaning when new or in good condition.?The Cultivator. SORE SHOULDERS. Sore shoulders are more In 'evidence when the heavy run of spring work is on, after a long winter of irregular work and confinement in the | stable than they are now, but even at this season there are cases when much discomfort is caused that, by a little extra care, could be averted. There are horses with defectively shaped shoulders or thin skins that are very easily put wrong in this way, but, as a rule, the defect is more in the horseman than in the horse. The collar must be made to fit comfortably and be kept clean and smooth, and- the traces made equal length so as to have the strain fairly balanced to both shoulders. The collar should | bo taken off as soon as the horse is out of the yoke, and, if necessary, the shoulder washed with cold water. Carbolized vaseline is an excellent application, both to prevent and^heal sore shoulders. RAISING BEANS. The easiest way I ever raised beans ' was on sod. A clover sod is best, if you have one, although any other kind of I sod will do if free from weeds; out low . meadows must not be chosen, as beans require high, dry land to make a good crop. After danger of frost is over break it up quite deep, from five to six j inches, go over it lengtTrwise with a disk harrow and cut it up fine; avoid going crosswise as this would turn up the sod. Choose some dwarf variety of field beans; they will not be injured by high winds as large growing varieties would. Drill seed in with corn planter, dropping one bean every eight or ten inches. They will require very little or no weeding. When ripe pull, dry and thresh at once.?Lewis Olsen, in The Epitomist. DEFECTIVE GARDEN SOIL. The family garden may be improved and put into a high state of fertility by articial means if it is found to be defective. It it consists of stiff clay, or very heavy loam, add sand to it. Sand should be spread evenly over the ground from two to three Inches deep, according to the condition of the soil. Plow and work it well with disc and harrow. Such treatment will make the soil more porous and warm. If the soil should be defective in humus, add dead leav?3, straw and coarse manure; I plowing all under deep. A crop of i />1?Tror ?nn>.noaBj nr TVP nlfiwpd UTldPr. V-1U T | C V if pvi?wv v* * j> vj -v ? ? # green, will further help to add fertility and destroy troublesome weeds. i WINTER EGGS. It is necessary to have early hatched pullets or yearling hens to secure many eggs in winter. With the same care and food old hens do not lay half ! as many eggs as young fowls. I have [ also found that it is essential that they 1 have plenty of exercise in comfortable quarters, and a roosting place free from cold drafts at night. I find it is better for the hens to hunt in the litI ter for all whole grain fed them than to have it supplied in trough.?J. H. M., in New England Homestead. What the Lips Show. The upper lip should be bow shaped, while the lower should form the arc of a circle, and to be ideally beautiful the lower lip should show more red than the upper. The lips should be moderately full. Thick lips show a sensuous temperament; thin lips, exhibiting little or nc color, while indicating firmness and will power, are also indicative of a lack of amiability, and, according to other indications in the face, may show meanness, if not avarice. Firmly closed lips indicate determination; i nnon lins. weakness and vacillation. I The open mouth is a characteristic of idiots, says Woman's Life. The upper lip should have a slight curve inward before its union with the nose, for the straight lip indicates its owner to be unamiable and unintelligent. Much depends on the length of the upper lip. The distance from it to the nose should be one-half the breadth of the mouth. A short upper lip indicates liveliness, wit, fertility of invention, brilliancy of repartee. A long upper lip is generally indicative of stupidity. Tanning by Electrolysis. The process of rapid tanning by electrolysis has failed. TRAVELLERS' GIFTS. Useful Things for Remembrances to Tourist Friends. Useful gifts to any traveller are the rubber or oil silk lined t5ilet sets. These consist of a bag for sponge and wash rag, and a flat cas&, with flaps, for soap, comb, tooth brush, nail brush and hair brush. The cases are made of white or tinted linen, embroidered in contrasting color, with white as a favorite. Those who do not embroider can bind the edges of their cases and bags with narrow colored ribbon. Only a traveller can realize the comfort of these rubber lined cases. They occupy less room than anything else made for the purpose, and keep j the dressing bag and its contents perfectly dry. A lap robe, crocheted, knitted or | otherwise, is another useful gift to j the traveller. Its usefulness need i not be dilated upon. Still another serviceable gift is a combination nillow and bag. This consists of a long piece of linen, denim or cretonne, sewed together nnrt nf wav and stuffed to form f ? v ~ ~ ' ?* a pillow. The portion that is left open is turned up on the side of the pillow and sewed to it at each end, leaving an open pocket into which a shawl, book or fancy work, or all three may be tucked. A strap of the same material is fastened to the ends of the pillow, which can be carried in the hand or slung over the shoulder. i Such pillows are usually made in dull colors and simply worked around the border, on the strap and the hem of the pocket with feather stitching. A narrow linen or cotton braid would be quite as pretty. Most women who go to the mountejns are so charmed by the beauty of the ferns that they yield to the temptation to dig up the graceful clusters and decorate their rooms with them. Unfortunately, crinkled paper and other coverings for flower pots cannot be procured in most mountain resorts, and even they who sell ferns in tomato cans do not always hide their prestine glimmer with birch bark. Travellers in the mountains, therefore, would be grateful for something to cover their fern dishes. The giver of gifts would do well to fashion a number of bottomless bags, about the depth of a tomato can and large enough to fit around a smal} wooden pail, of green denim or silkoline, with a green ribbon passed through little cords on the outside or run through a hem at the top and bottom. This draws the cloth into place and is tied in a bow. The woman who goes to sea know* the comfort Induced by a pair or siik sheets which do not have that clammy feeling found in linen and cotton sheets on shipboard. Made of cheap, soft China or India silk, such a gift may be adorned with fancy stitching on the hems and a monogram embroidered in the corner. Pretty bottles Qf smelling salts, lavender and camphor are more acceptable to the traveller than a box of candy.?Washington Star. Her Last Breath. I heard a story the other, day which Is probably as-old as the hills', though I never had the Inck to hear it before. It was of a somewhat lengthy railway journey in very warm weather. An elderly lady, seated in one corner of the carriage, was provided with an India-rubber cushion for her greater comfort, but unfortunately, owing to the heat and continued pressure,, the cushion suddenly exploded. The old lady was in despair, even to tears, over the misfortune' to the Windbag, and again and again reverted to her ] misfortune. "Tuts, woman," said a I commercial traveler in another corner 1 of the carriage. "It's not worth mak- f ing a fuss about. You will get it repaired In town for about eighteen . pence." "It's no' that I'm vexed abooi ?it's no' the price. That's easy sorted.
