All Around Fariner.
Present indications aro tliat hay
will bring a high prioo for tho noxt
twolveuiouth. The cold wcnther of
May brought about conditions which
wore not overcome later. Much foul
stnff camo iuto tho nieadows, so tliat
tliere is far less timothy of flrst class
quality on tho mnrket tlian usual.
Then, tho floods of July made the
work of gathering the crop decided
ly backwanl. Much hay ripened be
foro it could bo out, aud. when it was
cut it was not as good as corumon. It
stauds us in Iiand to use our hay crop
judicionsly this year. Xot many of
us can afford to sell any. In fact,
houo of us ever ought to sell hay off
oir farins. It is tho surest way to
cauto our land to deteiiornto.
THE POULTRY YARD.
When the fowJs aro on the range
thoy seem to bo eating during tho
whole day and the supposition is tlmt
they get moro than they shonld. It
is true that they can secure morejthan
enough on a range when everything
is growing, but thoy also expaud a
great deal of energy in so doiug. On
tho range the hens get a little at a
time, perhaps a worm here a seed
there, or somo delicacy in the shapo
of green food somewhere else, but
they are ever moving from place to
place and are as busy as possible. It
is a differeut matter when they are
fed by the owner. Ho throws down
the food aud they fill their crop full
at ouce. Having done so they aro
satisfled and do not scratch. Thero is
a lesson to leam from the natural
modo of feeding by the hens. Give
them their food iu small quantities if
they must be fed and not all at once.
When tho crop is overloaded too much
is passed into the gizzard to be tritur
ated and the digestive organs are over
taxed, but when tho food is eaten
gradually aud slowly tho digestive
process is also gradual and tho system
is invigorated by tho exorcise of secur
ing the food. Tho study of how best
to feed will assist in avoiding mis
takes and enable ono to feed at tho
lowest cost.

Beauty is as deop as the stomach, the
liver, tho kiduoys, the blood in the
body. Look at tho bad comploxions

icine, Calcura Solvent, to make tho

A good coiuplexion doponds upon

Mrs. Chapin suffered from anaemia,

depra'ved stato of tlmt tluid. It is
characterized by a pallid comploxion,
palo hps, dull eyes, tonguo and gnms
bloodloss; shortness of breath upon
sliglit exertion especially upon going
upstairs: palpitation ot tno neart,

LINCOLN'S HAY CROP.
A story of Abraham Lincoln would
have to be older than the ono below
to loso its characteristic savor.
In the summor of 185T Mr. Lincoln
was sitting iu his ofiice when ho was
visited by ono of his noighbors, an
excellent farmor, but oue iticlined to
inorease tho bizo of his crops ovon af
ter harvesting. Ho had given ou this
particular morniug a skillf ully padded
accouut of tho hay he had put in.
"I've been cuttiug hay, too," re
inarkod Mr. Lincoln.
"Why, Abo, are you farming?"
"Yes."
"What you raiso?"
"Just hay."
"Good crop this year?"
"Excellent."
"Ilow many toiis?"
"Woll, I don't kuow. just how maiiy
tons, Simpson, but my men stacked
all they could out doors aud then
storod tho rest in tho barn. " Youth's

THE PIG PEN.
The departmcut of agrioultnro finds
time aud opportuuity to cousider
what mav. at flrst thonght. seem a
trivial matter but uiwn a li ttle ro
viowing it dovolops f eatures that af ter
all may bo moro to tJio human raco
than at flrst appears.
Tho departmcut will study tho hab-
its of tho pig, aud haviug carefully
raised a litter of sucklings iu a clean
yard and upon clean food, will open
tho way to tho ordiuary stylo of pig
pen to see if tho oroatures elect to re
turn to tho coiiditiou of their auces-
tors. It may bo argued that it will
require more than the traiuing of ono
gouoration to eliminate those quali
tios supposed to be inherent in pigs!
Howevor, it is true that when left to
themselves iu flelds, as is douo in
warmer couutries, they appear as
cloanly as other animals. It is truo
that they ilke to wallow in streams
and, undoubtedly, under tho suu's hut
rays they liko the cooluess of the
stream, aud often wallow iu tho mud,
which even to tho observer causes
no offenso to tho sonses, liko tho
wallowiug in tho usual liltli of tho
pig pen.
It is hoped that tho oxperiment
meutioned will bring to tho notico of
farmers tho fact that mud is not uec
esary to the oxisteiico of swine. Tlio
usual pig sty is not only a diseaso
breediug nuisauce, but tho quality of
tho pork must deteriorate undor such
conditions aud feeding as exist amoug
somo farmers. Human beings could
not enduro it to livo 011 the fllth aud
garbago usually fed to tho pig who
must eat it or starve, and it is no
wondor that Europo puts a high duty
on meat that comos from a misused
animal.
Tho Burlington Humane society has
recently recoived complaints of cruel-
ty to cattlo and swine, among which
is tho statemont that several swine
aro kept in a pen m which 110 dry
placo is provided for them, and con
seqnently, thoy aro in tho miro up to
thoir bodies all of tho time. This is,
of courso, an oxceptionul caso, for
most farmers provide a dry placo that
may be occupied if tho animals prefor
it. Novortholess au investigatiou of
provailing conditions would probably
revoal somo circumstances that could
and should be mado botter, oven
though not as tho man who, convino
ed tho pigs needed mud baths, and
clean onos, had an elaborato pig sty
built with all tho anparatus for such
purposo. Ho discont'inued his oxpori
monts boforo carryiug thom to aii ox
tont that would mako him an author
ity 011 tho question. Ho roports,
howovor, thoro was a satisfaction in
eating cleau mcat.
Roasonably comfortablo snrround
ings for theso uselful animals must
seem desirablo to any ono, and if only
ono porson bo iuduced to atteud to
what will mako them comfortablc,oth
ors will follow and tho thought and
oiVort givon will not bo wasted.

COOKING RE01PES.
I To havo light mufllns as muoh do
ponds on tho way in which tho in
grcdicnts are put together as ou tho
rcoipo itself. A housokcoper who is
known for hor fluify breakfast muillns,
which aro always as light as tho prov-
orbiai teatiicr, uscs sour milk iu mak
ing thom, but docrics tho oldtimo way
of using it. According to trnditional
proccsses, tho soda is mixed with tho
sour milk bofore tho flour is addcd.
This mothod, says tho housowifo in
question, allows tho ctTorvesconco to
bo over boforo tho ilour goos in. Her
way is to mix with tho sour milk tho
flour, salt aud sugar aud then to add
tho soda rtlssolveu in a Httlo hot wa
ter. By this means tho entlro mass
rises. Tho last thing boforo tho bat
ter is turnod into tho pans, a beaton
ogg is foldcd in. This is hor rooipo :
Two cnpfuls of flour, 0110 cupful of
sour milk, a half teaspoonful of soda,
ono teaspoonful of sugar, a half tea
spoonful of salt and ono egg.
Ghocolato icing on a cako ought to
shino and not havo that dull appcar
anco that is frequontly observed. Tho
shiny oifoct is securod if a bit of but
ter is addod to tho milk and sugar
and moitcu cii.ocoiate that composo
tho icing.
At this seasou when tho thrifty
housewife's fancy turns to thoughts
of piokles, chow-chow, etc. , a fow
suggestious nro oll'orod. Thoso rooi
pes' liavo all been tested and fouud ox
ccllont. Soak 100 small cucumbors
(not over tlireo inches long) in a me
dium strong brino tweuty four honrs;
then riuso in cold wator. Heat threo
quarts of good vinegar scaldiiig hot ;
add one cup of sugar, oue tablespoon
ful of colves, also of ciunamon (tied
in at hin cloth), and a fow small red
peppers. Put in the cucumbers and
scald for twenty minutes ; then fill
glass jars with them.
My way for putting up green cu
cumbers : Tako nieo even ones ; place
them sido by side ; put down a layer
of salt., then a layer of cucumbers, a
layer of salt, then a layer of grape
leaves. Don't put water in tlrom;
they will make their own briue. Keep
them uuder the brine.
Slice oitrou aud soak in salt water
over night. In the morniug riuso and
put iii frcsh water. Uso 1 pound of
sugar for 3 pounds of fruit and 1 quart
of water for 3 pouuds of sugar. Let
syrup como to a boil ; add citron and
boil uutil syrup is thick as desired.
Watennelou rinds can be uscu in the
samo way and aro excellent.
Ono quart of small pickles, 8 good-
sized green tomatoes cut in small
pieces, 1 good-sized head of cauli-
llower pick'ed flue and 1 quart small
onions ; boil onions and
cauliflower
iu salted wator till teuder; pickles
and tomatoes soaked in a salt brine
over night ; proparo 1 scaut tcacup of
llower, 4 tablespoons mustard, 1 table
spoon tumeric, 1 cup browu sugar ;
tako enough vinegar to mix to a
smooth batter, then put as much vin
egar on tho stovo as you thinU will
cover the pickles ; whon hot put in
the mixture aud cook till doue ; wash
the salt out of tho pickles and toma
toes and put iu the mixture; also the
cauliollwer aud onion, and stew up
good.
Brine the cucumbors a day and
night. Allow 1 pound sugar to a
quart ot vinegar, spiced to taste.
Scald vinegar, sugar and spices to
gether and pour over cucumbers. Seal
in fruit cans.
Of Coueral Interest.
Prof,. G. S. Hall of Cla rk Univer-
sity, says that tho hoine should bo ser-
ved by every chiid, who should feol
himsolf a useful and integral member
of it, with duties. Every girl should
cook, sew, clean, polish, and perhaps
wash havo sometliiug to do with
flowers, develop some domestic taste
and pride, in place of the shamo so
often felt by high school girls for
their lowly homes, for which their
education often breeds distaste. They
should bo reminded that too soft
hauds in tho young suggest a soft
brain ; that hand aud brain both grow
and aro educated togother. Tho kitch-
eu is tho hoart of tho homo; its in
dnstries, intelligontly nndorstood, are
among tho most educatioual of all pos
sible inttuences, aud to overcomo tho
alienation school often breeds for
lionie lifo in tho modern American
girl is ono of our most sorions probkms.
Iu cleaiug soiled fabrics with gaso
line.naphtha or bouzino, a ringof dis
coloration is oftou left around tho
spoot, makiug the stain moro con
spicuous than at flrst. To provont
this tho fabrio should bo rubbed with
a pieco of tho samo goods, tho cloth
rubbed leugthwiso aud with tho
weavo. Continno rubbing until tho
matorial is perfectly dry, and there
is no risk of discoloration.
