KEEPING WELL GLOVED. Points a to How It Mir Be Managed at Comparatively Small Cost. Every woman, particularly every woman of limited income, knows what a hole is made in that income by the effort, the necessity, indeed, to be well gloved. As there is no royal road tc learning, so there seems no cheap way to keep one's hands properly covered. It was a decided respite to the eternal glove buying when, last summer, for once fashion permitted in the cities the ungloved hands hitherto only allowed in village streets and country lanes. A woman who has studied the ques tion from an economic standpoint, and who succeeds in results, says that for hard, cold weather wear there is nothing so satisfactory and so cheap in the end as a pair of good dogskin gloves. "I buy one pair every fall," she says, "for which I pay from two dollars and a half to three dollars. These wear through the winter and I am out every day. I use the pair worn the previous season for rainy days and for any eveningerrand that needsonly hands protected. The rusty finger ends of the last year's pair I restore very creditably by staining with good black ink, and after it is dry, rubbing in a little olive oil. My suede gloves I buy in pairs of the same shade, choosing one of the always pretty shades or gray or tan. In this way I am frequently able to reraale them, and sometimes restore an entire finger piece. I make it a point to get my gloves large enough; that helps the wear very much.and this without, mak ing the hands look bad. On the con trary, a six and one-half hand squeezed into a six glove is vulgar. Of course, I take great care of my gloves pulling them off wrong side out, keeping the buttons on to preserve their shape, put ting them away in a smooth, well-pulled-out condition after every wear ing, and looking carefully to the sav ing stitch in time. I mend, as every body should and many do, with thread, always matching in the cotton and the shade of my glove. And my gloves are really a small expense, taking- the year through." X. Y. Times.

Morton'n Message. Gov. Morton's inaugural message con tains among other good suggestions one that is of particularly great impor tance. He merely touches on the sub ject, but the hint might be taken as well by legislatures of other states as by the assembly of New York: The sufcje-t of pood roads is also commendMl to tho nUfcntioa jf the !j:is!:iture. It is suir p,Nted that c;rr. in luiw,r day tinri employment in this direction, particularly as u constitu tional amendment which takestffect two years ht;nce forbids the M ile from employing con victs at the state and county prisons, jails and reformatories in any industrial art or useful occupation in competition with the work or products of the people The attention of other people than the bicyclist and Coxey lately has leen directed toward the subject of good roads. This is practically a roadless country. The best of our country wag on roads would not compare with the worst roads in the remote north of Eng land or in (iermany and France. Of course the older countries gained a no ble heritage from the road-building Romans in this respect, whereas on this side of the water the railways came so quickly after the open ing of the eountry that road-building seemed an idle pursuit. Here and there through the west one encounters a small stretch of well-laid road run ning down to a city or post ofliee. but in general the country roads are little more than widened trails, unscien tifically filled in by the farmers in idle times, rough in winter, impassably muddy in spring and intolerably dusty in midsummer. Tiie country has got old enough and carriage travel in the eountry places has increased to such an extent as to make the necessity of lietter roads ap parent. l!y a coincidence the dispo sition to save free labor from the com petition of convict labor has also risen. Many states have laws against convict contracts without means of keeping J, LEVI P. MORTON, OOVKKXOH OF XKW YORK. the felons employed. In Illinois, al though the present system here seems workinur in a promising way, it is still subject to the protests of the labor nnions. What better channel for the employment of the convicts could lie devised than that of road-building? The great state of New York, which, after a life of nearly three hundred years, is still bumping over rocky roads, might set the western states ar example. Chicago Evening Post. FRESH DAIRY DOTS. The sugar leet for cows is always highly recommended by those who try it. We never would raise more heifer calves than we needed for our own herd. It will not pay. While we have such an immense numlier of careless buttermakers dairying of the right kind will not be overdone, and will offer good induce ments to the farmer to enter it. It is a mistake to keep big beefy cows in the dairy as a rule. If butter or milk is the olject, select a cow that will accomplish the purpose in the highest degree. Let the beef side of the question alone. We observe that a writer objects to the criticisms on dogs and boys about tile cows. He says that if a collie or a boy is brought up to know his busi ness, either is valuable. That is true. Hut the trouble is that sometimes neither knows his business. Farmers" Voice. Rotation In the Garden. There is decided advantage in occa sionally changing the location of the garden. The crops in the garden re quire heavy manuring. As they occupy the land every year there is no chance to seed with clover, and the soil, though rich enough, becomes too heavy for profitable working. Where a clover sod is plowed under the soil is friable, and holds moisture without becoming sodden. Many farmers do not think of changing their garden spot until spring. Then it is too late to make the soil rich enough for gardening pur poses: but if a clover ley is top dressed heavily with manure in the fall, and then plowed early in the spring, it will be rich enough to grow most kinds of garden vegetables. Such a plat of ground that had been frequently in clover will be less weedy than one that has been always used as a garden. Rural World. The Fruit (irowrr'i Market. The home is. after all, the best mar itet for the American fruit grower. Farmers and even orchardists have too little of small fruit on their tables. Half a bushel of fruit per day the year round can be profitably disposed of by the average family. A Connecticut farmer kept an account of the small fruit grown on half an acre of ground and used by his family last year. He charged the family with the fruit at market rates and found it amounted to SC5. or more than 8700 per acre. Such small fruit culture pays, not only in the money value of the product, but in the healthful outdoor habits of life which it encourages, and the hundred other ways in which a garden ministers I to mental and physical health.--&Iich g-an Horticultural Report.

C300 FOR A NAME. This is the sum we hear the Salzer Seed Co. offer for a suitable name for their wonderful new oats. The United States department of agriculture says Salzer's oats is the best of 300 varieties l tested. A great many farmers report a test yield of 200 bushels per acre last ! year, and are sure this can be grown I and even more during 1805. Another I farmer writes us he cropped 112 bush els of halzer's Marvel bpnng wheat on two and one-half acres. At such yield wheat pays at 30c per bu. One thing we know and that is that Salzer is the largest Farm Seed grower in the world and sells potatoes at S2.50 per barrel. IF YOU WILL CUT THIS OUT AND SEND IT with 10c postage to the John A.
