Plans for a Bmull d-Jry refrigerator for milk and butter from five cows are wanted by J. R. B., who has 15 loads of ice and a good cool well. He wants a building of wood and located north of a large farmhouse, around which is a muple grove. . . '' Tho plan illustrated herewith calls for an addition of 6 by 11 feet on the north, end of the house.. Across ope end of the rodin thus maile, see Fig. 2, is par titioned the refrlgerntor proper, tha rest of the room being used as a Bulk room. This will give room to work, around the cabinet creamer which I would Set in the southweBt corner. Tin walls, ceiling nnd partitions should b made by first sheeting up both sides oi the studding with matched flooring, adding to the sheathing on the insidt a layer of the beRt coal tar paper put on in such a way that the joints match at the studding, then fur out on th inside nnd add another sheeting oi matched flooring and building puperj fur out once more, and add a third and last bhct'llngof mntched flooring. Thil gives three dead air spaces. The doon should be lwilt up in the same way as the walls and the edges beveled so at to close practically tight. The room to be used as a retrigeratoi is divided into two compartments, orjj for ice and the other for storage. Tha icebox is 2a feet square, the partition between it and the storage is made bj setting two by four studding six inchet apart and sheeting up on the storage side from, the bottom of Ihe ice chest within four inches of the ceiling. The openings thus left at the bottom and the top furnish a means for circulation of the air, which will pass into the top of the ice box from the storage room, where It lias become warm, while the cold air from the ice passes out below to take Its place. The bottom of the ice chest should be tip some 20 inches from the floor, and consist of a galvan ized iron drip-pan, resting on a grating HE KlGERATOn AND CREAMERY. of two hy fours two inches apart. This prating may be mude by nailing the two by fours onto both sides of the studs forming the twit!on. The water from the suiting loeshould be conducted from the drip-pnn to the outside by nieagB of a pipe,- provwed with a trap, the trap being necessary to prevent an outflow of cold nir with the water. The sides of the ice box should be lined with four-inch strips f inch stulf about one inch npnrt, the edges planed to a bevel ns in i'ig. 1, so that the drip where the ice conies against the sides will full to the inside and into the pan below. The shelves in the storage room should be of sluts, so as to allow circulation of nir. The outside door should be 2'3 'cet wide, the door into the cold storage the same width und extending from the floor to the ceiling. The door into the ic6 box, two feet wide nnd about three feet high. One window with double glass, about three feet long and V.t feet high, well up in the side of the wall, will give (avllicieiit light. The sides of the building should be well banked up, so that the space under the floor will lie dry and the nir dead. Prof. (i. II. True, Michigan'txpcri mental Station, in Farm and home. Proper Manarlna? of Trees. - The mistake of many people in ma nuring trees is to place the fertilizer as near the trunk as possible. That 1b very much like feeding a man held in up right position by placing the food near his feet. More frequently, however, the manure is spread us far us the branches extend from the. trunk . The feeding roots of large trees are mainly much farther from their trunk than their branches. Bury some dead animal three or even four rods from an apple tree in full bearing, nnd within a year or two roots will extend this distance und find the fertilizer thev need. In most orchards tree roots interlace each other. and this crowding is one. reason why the trees are so often unproductive. It requires extra high feeding in such cases to keep the trees vigorous enough to be fruitful. If every other tree were cut out the result in ninny cases would be more and better fruit than now on those left standing. Prairie Furmyr. I skilled Men In Demand.

Virginia Has Patented a, I'al-in Da vice for the Collection and Dla ' trlbatlon at Letters. A good many crossroads postmas ters will Ibse their jobs when the gov ernment adopts the system of deliv ering and collecting mail in the coun try, which has just been patented by Thomas J. Crowder,f Virginiu. His invention, forms a valuable adjunct, to the suburban Bystem now being devel oped for the relief of ccAintry residents. It consists of a box somewhat large thaA those now used in the cities as mail depositories, and these ore to be erected at convenient centers along the country road's. Two keys are allotted to each residence in the vicinity. The RURAL MAIL BOX. first door comprises one entire side of the box, and when this is opened it fulls to a horizontal position und acts as a helf. l A number of small individual boxes are revealed, and the second Key furnished opens one of these. For th sake of convenience in distributing the mail these many little doors form one large one, which when opened by the currier gives access nt once to all the private boxes; but when lie has closed this shield the mail in each of these compurtments is secure from examina tion by any others than those holding the keys of that particular box. A large space is reserved in the bot tom us a depository for mail matter that Is dropped, in the usual way through a slot provided. The patent also contemplates the combination of the scheme with nn electrical system by which the box owners mny be notified at their respec tive homes when a parcel has been placed in the box by the carrier. HEAR THE OTHER SIDE. The Moral Apect of Poor Honda AfuiiHlnaly Dlscuaaed hy a Kevr York Ncwsunper. Of late years we have been hearing but one side of the roads question, till the world hns come to thiujt that there Is but one side. While only a bold man would sny that poor roads are better than good roads, something is to be said in their favor, and some sympathy is due those despised and rural persons thnt do not join in the general peon in favor of good roads. Not that one would for a moment oppose the pres ent agitation for them, nny more than one would oppose Sunday schools. Both are commendable; yet even as one would not wish this world one lurge Sunday school, so one should be moderate iu one's desire far faultless highVays. Imagine what it would be to have ronds eliminated from our calcula tions. The wrld would lose all those ecstatic thrills it now experiences in watching the cla' or loam quagmires change, drop by drop, back into the delightful roads they can be at times. Perfect roads would be as dull as the ideal social state. In a more important way humanity would lose. Gpod foads, in a few short years, would sap th moral fiber which man has been cultivating through ages. Time may come when w'e shall not need the ethical stimulus of poor ronds, but it is far off.

Y, Com mercial Advertiser. Practical Fonltrr Points. At a farmers' institute in Iowa a lady read an essay telling how she made a profit of $300 mniuully from her flock; of about 75 hens. In the discussion that followed, one man, who said he could not spare tlmei from taking care of liia cornfield one year to build coops for, the chickens, admitted that' the chickens nnd eggs his wife sold brought In more money than his corn crop. An other woman, who had sold $420 worth of poultry to the local poultry dresser w here she lived, said thnt the men could talk poultry .when., the ground was frozen five feet deep, but when spring comes they will forget it nil nnd think of nothing but "corn and hogs, more corn and wore hogs." 1 ' " ' Wooitnrt-lcer la Man's Allr. One of the birds which winters in our northern climates is the wood pecker, which finds its favorite food as easily in cold weather as in warm. It Is not often' seen except by those who go into the forests and evergreen swamps, where it takes refuge during the severest wenther.Its sharp pack, peck on .the trunk of a partly decayed tree is generally rewarded by a taste of, the grub thnt did the mischief, and which the woodpecker greedily devours.

There is no specie of fish more im portant to llie resiints of the entire Atlantic seaboard than the shad. Ac: cording to returns of the United Stales fish commission there were 24,768 men, employed 3n the fhad fisheries of the Atluntic coast of the United States in 1S!I6. The boats nnd apparatus em ployed were worth $2,040,342 land the yield of shad numbered 13,0j3,49, val ued at $1,651,443. The history of hhe rfiad fisheries shows thn-t -there was a decrease in ihe yidld in nearly every river on the cofl.st until 1SS0, when the results of artificial propagation became apparent, not only maintaining m equilibrium, but increasing llhe abundance. Since 1SS0 the aggregate yield ihas greatly in creased, he product in lMtfi being 28 per cent, greater th'an in 1SS8 and near ly three times ns great as in 1880. And yet 1896 was what is comiwonlv termed an "off' year for shad, Vhe calteh being smaller han in 1R93 or in W. It rhould be noted, however, that this largely increased yield Was been accom panied and even surpassed iby an in crease in quantity and effectiveness of the apparatus of cap'ture, but it was made possible by (the results of artifi cial propagation. Oomimring 1860 with 1896, ft is observed lihat 1-he incivase In it.he yifild numbered 7,905,154. At 25 centrt each, the average price paid by consumers, Whig represents nn increase of $l,97fi,2SS in Ihe value, over GO times he expenditure ftrr ffrnd proiptigalion, a result probably unsurpassed in nny otiher line oif fish curtain. The supporting ot profitable shad fisheries is not cthe only object, to be p.iin"d in maintaining 't'he supply of shad on '(Hie coasit. The religion be tween the different species of fish In the economy of nature is nrtt very well understood, but sufficient is known to indicate- 'that fhe valuable shore fish eries.on IlicXew Kn-glnnd const are intimately associated with the Tim of shad and similar species up the rivers of that section. Seventy years ago the run of fish up the rivers of tCie New Kngland states wa-s much greater than at present, nnd after Wie parent fish had disappeared 'the waters swarmed 'wifli the yotmg, whklb later descended to the sea in enormous schools, attract ing the cod, haddock and other off Shore spe.-ies, which, were caught in great abundance wHl.h'in n short dis tance of the coast, rendering unneces sary the expensive and hazardous, trips to distant banks, il'.nt wilh the deple tion of shad, alewives, salmon and kin dred speoics came a corresponding dim inution in the number of cod. haddock, etc., near the coast. And it appears that any measures tending to restore the nnndromous fishes to theiir former nbundhncc will also improve the coast fisheries. Boston Glob. Not a Party to the rate.

I received tpecihc injunction! from the owner of each to get 'something characteristic,' and I turned the bunch over to my managerial friend.

The othert were equally incoherent, but somehow they had a wise aound and the autograph chasers wire perfectly delighted. 'So deep!'
