EEnvING BANANA.-A favorite
way of serving bananas in New Orleans
is to cut them lengthwise in two pieces,
dust them with powdered sugar, a little
lemon juice and bits of butter, and to

AvoIDiNG TEMPTATION - First
New Yorker-What are you going to
do about ice this summer?
Second New Yorker-I'm not going
to take any. I have a horror of bur
glars, and I don't propose to tempt
them by keeping any ice in the house.
SHE FORGAVE }rM--Wife-Why,
husband, I thought you had more sense
than to buy a cornet. You know the
fellow next door worries us nearly to
death with his.
Husband-Calm yourself, my dear.
That's the one I bought.
"I have this evening been preaching
to a congregation of idiots," said a con
ceited young parson.
"Then what was the reason you al

replied a strong m'-nded lady.
It was11.30P. M.
"Harry," said the Congressman's
daugbter, "this is the fifth time you
have thought of something to say just
after you had picked up your hat."
"Why-er-yes; so it is," said Har

BI'TS ALOUT BORSES.-It costs
more to keep a poor horse than-it does
to seep a gocd one.
Change the feed of your horses often
enough to make them relish it.
Improper ieedmg is the cause of nine
out of ten cases of sickness among
horses.
Every time you worry your horse you
shorten their lives and days of useful
ness.
Sweat and dust caie your horses'
shoulders to gal'. Sa do poor,Ill-fitting
collars.
- The temperature of water for horses
is not so much of an object as the pur
ity of it. - While it is best to have the
water cool, it is more important to have
it free from all impurities.
Affection cannot be pounded into an
imale. Kind treatment insures the
affection of an animal, while rough
treatment is sure to cause its hatred.
When horses are suffering from the
bites of flies or stings of other insects,
sponge the parts that cannot be protect
ed by nets with water in which Insect
powder has been mixed-a tablespoon
ful to two gallons of water.
Of two colts similar indisposition and
sense, one may develop into a steady
and valuable family horse, while the
other may be anything that is vicious,
treacherous and unsafe- all because
of a difference in the men handling,
them.
Plenty of whitewash should be used,
not only for the brighter appearance,
but also as a disinfectant. Hot white
wash on the inside of stables, barns,
poultry houses and pig quarters, will
aid in preventing vermin and insects.
The horse which can plow an acre
while another horse is plowing half an
acre, or one which can carry a load of
passengers-ten miles while another is
going flve,independent of all considera
tions of amusement, taste or what is
called fancy,.is absolutely worth twice
as much to the owner as the other.
SABLE SBEEP.-it has always been a
question whether it is possible to breed
a flock of black sheep, and an extensive
flockmaster of Australia is testing the
matter by sending all his black lambs
to a range by themselves. These can
not truthfully be called freaks of na
ture, as some claim,or if so there would
Le less of it. Still, here Is soirethirgi
about it not well understood. Black
lambs may not occur in a flock in gen
erations and then recur of a sudden. If
a black ram be used in a flock of white
ewes, more than nine-tenths of the off
spring will be white. Cases often occur
where both sire and dam are black, and
the lambs white. As something does
not come from nothing, black blood
must be diffused through most flocks.
Where wool is to be dyed a deep color,
it is claim-d that the "basic pigment"
of black wool being already provided,it
absorbs less dye and makes more en
during color. However this may be,
there is a serious objection to black
sheep because their coats absorb more
rys of the sun than white, affecting
tem by heat more readily and more
seriously.
Now that the season is over it is not
out or place to call attention to the fact
that if the disease is to be prevented
next year something must be done with
the refuse (stems, decayed tubers, &c.)
and not allow it to be carried over
through the winter. The Maine Agri
cultural Experiment btation has been
at work ini the endeavor to enlighten
the farmers in re;ard to this disease,
but remedies during the growing season
may be too late, and in order to avdid
the difficulty all tops, leaves and decay
ing tubers should be burnt in order to
destroy the spores. Do not throw them
on the compost heap, as the manure
will only spread the disease another sea
son.
BEES NEAR A HIIGHWAY. - Bees
should not be nearer a highway than
one hundred feet, or to a house where
there are small children. An apiary
can extend up to a highway with safety,
provided there is a high board fence, or
hedge intervening, TIs obstruction
causes the bees to aim high in their
flight, whIch takes the:n out of mis
hief. It would be better for all bees
on a farm to be in a high board inclos
ure, so that breechy animals would not
be in danger by upsetting their hive, 15
is generally the result of carelessness,
when horses are killed by them.
According to the Amerzcan AgricuZ
turfst, the milk supply of New York
city affords an income to those furnish
ing it of $10,000,000,at 2j cents a quart.
Over 200,000 cows are milked to obtain
this d'pply, and f60,000,000 of capital
is invested, exclusive of the railroads
and of dealers. Milk is drawn from
ive states, and some of it is hauled 300
miles by the railroads. With vigilant
Milk inspectors and an active Dairy
Commissioner with his deputies," liew
York is getting a supply of fairly good
milk and honest butter.
Professor Robinson, who has tested
the matter, claims that when cows are
denied salt for a period of even one
week they will yield from fourteen to
seventeen per cent. less milk, and that
of Inferior quality. Such milk, he
says, will, on the average, turn sour in
less time than milk drawn from the
same or similar cows receiving salt, all
other conditions of treatment being
equal. _ _ _ _ _
Waldo F. Brown says: There are
thousands of acres sown in wheat each
fall that it would require but a glance
of an intelligent man to know that on
them a crop of wheat could not be
grown that would pay expenses-old
washed clay hillsides, flat wet land, or
it may be land that has been plowed
late and the seed put in with a badly
prepared seed bed.
The Amerfcan ,Sfeep Urotcer- states
that "if a few dry cows or heifers are
kept in the field with sheep the dogs
will seldom molest them. We have
found sheep in the morning huddled so
close around and under a friendly old
cow that she could not get away from
them. She had saved their lives."
One of the highest observatories in
the world is about to be erected in
Taananaivo, Madagascar. It will be
in every way complete and the site
chosen for it is about 4400 feet above
the sea level.
The Kelfer pear trees is a vigorous
grower, and secures more beight in pro
portion to thickness than is desirable.
After the leaves fall off cut back the
taller shoots, and induce a more stocky
growth.
The toughest fowl can be made pal

The Canning Season.
Canning is an Improvement upon the
old-fashioned method of preserving
pound for pund in sugar. It retains
more of tha fresh and natural flavor, is
far less trouble to prepare and more
economical. All fruits may be canned
with or withcut sugar, as the sugar
takes no part whatever in the preserva
tion. F.. r flavoring ice:creams and
water-ices it is desirable to can the
fruits without sugar. Choose only per
fectly sound and tresh fruits on the
very verge of decay; even at very re
duced rates, as they quickly ferment
after canning, and you not only lose
fruit,sugar and labor,but very often the
jars as well.
All large fruits, after raring, should
be immediately thrown into cold water
to prevent discoloration, then boiled in
clear water until tender, then again in
the syrup.
Small fruits retain their shape more
perfectly if sugared one or two hours
before cooking, A quarter teaspoonful
of alum added to each pound of sugar
hardens the fruit and gives it bril
liancy.
Large-mouthed glass jars,with porce
lain-lined or glass tops only, should be
used. They should be thoroughly
heated before filling, filled quickly
through a wide-mouthed funnel to
overflowing. A silver spoon-handle
hould be passed around the inside of
the jar, to break any air bubbles that
may be there, and the tops screwed on
without delay. Stand the jars while
filling on a folded towel to prevent
breakage, After sealing, stand the jars
in a warm part of the kitchen over
night. In the morning the covers
should again be tightened, as the glass
will contract after cooling, and put
'them away in cool, not cold, dry, dark
closets. In a week examine each jar
earefully,without shaking or disturbing
more than necessary. If you find the
lids slightly indented, the contents free
from air bubbles, and the liquid settled
you may rest assured they will keep. If
you find the opposite, open the jars im
Ynediately to prevent bursting. This
fruit maybe re-cooked and usedat once,
but is never satisfactory if again
canned. Use only the best granulated
sugar. Fruit canned with sugar of an
inferior quality is never clear, and is
also more liable to ferment.
The surplus juice that exudes from
small fruits, such as strawberries, rasp
berries and plumbs, may be strained
and boiled for jelly.
A porcelain-lined kettle, rather broad
than deep, is best. Copper or brass
mu-t be thoroughly cleansed with salt
and vinegar, and even then the articles
are more or less imbued with verdigris
that is produced in them by the action
of the acids.
Small oil stoves are most convenient
for canning,preserving or jelly making;
the kettle being immediately over an
oven and intense heat, the contents boil
quickly, thus retaining color and
flavor.
If the directions are carefully fol
iowed, and there is not too large a quan
tity cooked or scalded at one tim@ to
prevent careful management of each
ar, not one can in a hundred will be

1 (s probably idle to toil people that
here is a thousand times the danger in
he sewer pipes that there is in the
hunder.Clouds, but it is true all the
ame. The deaths by lightning are
ew indeed. Who of the readers of
his paragraph, says the Hartford
,ourant, ever lost a friend that way?
Vho of them hasn't lost a score of
riends by the less brilliant and less
oisy destriction that comes up out of
he drains? The trouble with the
ightning, or the trouble that It gives
be people, is in its indescribable sud
enness and its absolute uncertainty.
Cou know neither when it is coming
or where it is going, all you feel cer
ain about Is that some storms leave a
umber of catastrophes to mark their
ourse. The caprice of the lightning
efies the explanations of science, and
here is no predicting beyond a few
eneralities. Th!s much it does seem
are to repeat, even in a lively light
ing season, that the increased use of
leczrlcity, nith the multiplicity of
vires, has tended to fewer fatal strokes

Ltt;i opinion, who -knows every
hing, has discovered that the hottest
pace on the earth is that part of Persia
hat borders on the Persian gulf. The
oaximum temperature is reached in
aly and August, when for forty con
ecutive days the thermometer registers

re sunk from 100 to 5C0.- feet before
rater is reached. In spite of all this,
eop'e live there. The water supply is
rawn from submarine springs in the
ulf. From these water is gotten by
ivers who, after plunging uown
brough the brine, fill goat.kin bottles
t the fountains of fresh water.
A new method of obtaining stained
lass is done by a process of printing.
'he design is embossed on an iron
late, on which a lump of hot glars Is
oled until it takes the form of the
late on which the pattern is cast. The
unken lines are then filled with enamel
nd the whole plate is fired. This pro
ess obvicusly does away with the use
f leads, is rapid in its execution, and
as the additional advantage that the
esign may be repeated as often as it

A new disinfectant has made its ap
earance. It Is a combination of cam
