A novel proposition was made not long | ago to the Receivers of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. ‘The B. & O. has a branch | running from’ what is known as Alexan- dria Junction, near Washington, to Shep- herd’s, on the Potomac River, where a car ferry is operated in. connection with the lines leading south from the Capital. A professor of an Eastern college desired to lease this short stretch of track for the purpose of educating young men in prac- tical railroad work. in his letter he ex- plained that he thought there was a wide field for bright and energetic boys who could be thoroughly well grounded in the practical side of railroading provided they could be educated on a regular line of road. He believed that by the employ- ment of veteran railroad men as teachers that the boys could profitably spend two or three years working as trainmen, fire- men, engineers, switchmen, station agents and in other capacities required in the railroad service. As this branch of the B. & O. is of considerable value, the Re- ote were compelled to decline the offer. There 1s more Catarrn in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced ft incurable. Sc!- ence has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tional disease and therefore requires con- stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., ‘Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu- tional cure’on the market. it is taken internally in doses from i0 drops to a teaspoonful.

A Teutonic Gretna Green. Since Heligoland was ceded to Ger- many, it has become a sort of Gretna Green, for there loving couples from the fatherland can be most expedi- tiously married—in fact, between the arrival and departure of the Cuxhaven boat. It is said that Pastor Schroeder, who conducts the marriage ceremonies, can perform a marriage in five seconds, so the formalities must necessarily be of the simplest. Herr Schroeder has no rival, or fear of one, for, somehow, he has obtained a monopoly of these weddings until the year 1913. The rey- erend gentleman is much more particu- lar as to whom he marries than was the old blacksmith of Gretna Green, and he asks certain questions which the candidates for matrimony are obliged to reply to on oath. He de- clines to have anything to do with wid- ows or widowers, divorced persons or would-be bigamists.—Black and White. To Cure Constipation Forever Take Cascarets Candy Cathartic. 10c or 25c. If C.

How Successful Farmer, Operate This Department of the Farm—A Few Hints as to the Care of Live Stock and Poultry. Notes on Dairying. N dairying, as in nearly all other kinds of _ business, success is often due very largely to ad- vertising. 'The Cau- adians know this and make the most of it at every op- portunity, and with them advertising has brought in a Note their activity at golden harvest. the time of the Columbian Exposition. They made at that time a mammoth cheese, weighing 22,000 pounds. Their only idea in making a cheese of such Proportions was to get’ themselves talked about in the papers and else- where. They showed wisdom in that, and we all know that everyone heard about that mamfhoth Canadian cheese. Thousands climbed the ladder that was Placed against the side of the cheese and got a look atits immense top. Thousands did this for the mere sake of saying they had seen the great Canadian cheese. The whole world was impressed with the fact that Can- ada makes cheese.. The men at the head of the enterprise did not stop here. They sold the cheese, and a part of the terms of sale was that the buyer should take that cheese and exhibit it in every city of Great Britain and Tre- land. We all know that in a few years Canada has become famous, across the water, as a maker of cheese, and to such an extent that American cheese has been largely displaced. What is true on a large scale applies also in a small way. Nations profit by advertisement. Individual dairy- men also profit by advertisement. The best advertisement is a show of one’s goods. But one must first learn how to make good products: before advertis- ing them. The sample should aot be better than the maker is able to fur- nish right along, for if the body of the goods fall below the sample the effects of the advertising will quickly wear away, se & An old trick of the trade is to brand butter and cheese according to its quality and not according to its origin. Thus in England cheese has been found by Prof. Robertson of Canada selling at 22 cents per pound as “best Eng- lish,” while other cheese labeled Can- adian was being sold at 14 cents per pound. On investigation the fact was brought to light that much of the cheese sold as “best English” had neen made in Canada. The branders had simply picked out the best and la- beled it “best English,” while the more common was labeled otherwise. Some- times English cheese of poor quality is labeled Canadian or American. Thus it is that the efforts of the makers are often frustrated, and they are even made to bear the sins of others. But this is an old scheme that has been followed not only in England, but in the United States. It used to be a com- mon trick to brand all good cheese “New York,” and all poor cheese “western” or “Illinois,” or ‘“Wiscon- sin.” That was in the days when New York was the greatest maker of good cheese in the Union. Today large quantities of butter are branded “El- gin” that never saw Elgin. x es To show that some people will buy anything that is sufficiently advertised, a Canadian tells the story that the Daily Telegraph of London one day spoke of some butter in a certain win- dow that was covered with salt. The compositor made the sentence read that the butter was covered with suet. The next day not less than a dozen people called at that shop and wanted to buy some of the butter that was covered with suet, see Enforce honesty in dairy products and in the handling and sale of the same. Whenever a law is passed that tries to eliminate some of the cheating methods from our intercourse there are always ready people who make a great fuss about their liberties being trampled on. But the fact remains that wherever fraud exists, laws should be made to bring that fraud out into the light. The people as a whole will sup- port such laws if they understand their tenor and aim. see Traveling dairies seem to be doing much good in the countries where they have been tried. In the French por- tions of Canada it is reported that the work in this line has been so uffective that the finest of cheeses are made, England and Australia have also been carrying on the work for some time with good results. ‘The dairies go to the people and instruct them in the requisites of good butter and gcod cheesemaking. Education is the greatest lever to lift the weights that have been crushing humanity in the rast. Winttr Care of Laying Hens. The season of high prices for eggs is now with us, and the owner’ of hens that are filling the egg baskets are correspondingly happy. That the right kind of care does more to produce eggs than any other thing is universally known, but there must be something besides care, or it will be almost as bad as no care. .The foundation is good healthy hens from an early lay- ing stock. There are more advocates of early hatched pullets for winter lay- ing than of hens, but I think one-year- old vigorous hens, properly fed through their moulting season, will give as many or more eggs to the farmer, and then their eggs are better to set in the spring. I mean they will give a larger | per cent of vigorous chicks than pul- lets, other things being equal. They will require a warm house, not neces- sarily expensive, plenty of wholesome : food and pure water regularly given, and a variety of food, to lay well through the winter. Give a warm breakfast of bran, one-third cooked vegetables and table scraps, one-third and clover, either cut fine, or the shatterings from clover hay one-third, mix with hot water, milk if you have it, and feed warm. One can’t tell the amount required, as some hens will eat more than others, but give just what they will eat greedily, not all they want. Twice a week salt as if for table use, and onée in ten days add pepper, 18 boughten pepper or tea made from peppers grown at home; al- so add what table scraps you have. Tack heads of cabbage, secure by the wall or a post in pleasant weather, so they can pick and eat of it. Have a scratching shed open to the south,and keep them at work in these hunting for wheat, millet and sorghum or Kaftir corn that has been scattered in a lit- ter of leaves or straw. Hide it extra well, so they will have to hunt for it. Feed corn at night, all they need to fill their crops. Whenever possible get scraps from a butcher shop, and if you do not have a bone mill, cut and pound them with an ax., If you are near a butcher shop ‘that will furnish you scraps it will be economy to buy a bone mill, as your egg sales will be much larger, your hens healthier and your feed bill smaller. If, however, you live, as we do, too far from the shops to get your scraps, buy prepared bone meal of any reliable brand adver- tised, and feed according to directions. Have charcoal, gravel, and grit before them all the time. I manufacture grit with an old clock weight, a hammer and pieces of crockery. Keep the dust box filled and dry, and a little sulphur mixed in the dust. In cold weather give warm water or milk; use milk if you have it all the time. Of course they will want water, too. If you keep hens they will want extra attention through their moulting period. Meat of some kind is needful just now for them, and seed with oil in it, as sun- flower seed. Kaffir corn is excellent for them, cheap, too, for it yields so won- derfully. Make companions of your hens; don’t scare them, but keep them gentle. Prepare clean nests and plen- ty of them. Keep free of lice. Be on the lookout constantly, for this is the only way to be free of them. When the children crack nuts have the hulls taken to the scratching shed; the bid- die will find several morsels. When corn is popped take the hard grains to the hens; they will like them, for a change. Scotland, Ill. Mrs. W. A. C. Mother Nature's Care. One of the most wonderful things in this world is the care that the dear Mother Nature takés of all her chil- dren. She makes whatever changes are necessary in the structure, even, to adapt them to their surroundings. A curious thing has happened in the cold- storage warehouse of a Western city, which shows how well Mother Nature takes care of her world, human or ani- mal, if she has the chance. In the great rooms of these establishments, where the temperature is kept below the freez- ing point,it was not supposed that rats would thrive, or even live. But after a while it was discovered that there were rats in the storage rooms and that, be- ing born and brought up in such a cold place, nature had prepared them for their existence by giving them a very heavy coat of fur. Two rats were caught and killed, and were found to be covered with long and thick fur, even their tails having a thick growth of hair. It was then decided to see if cats would not get’on as well as the rats in the cold and act as their de- stroyers. The first pussies that were shut in the cold rooms did not fare very well. They pined and died one after another, and the experiment was about to be given up, when a cat was put in that thrived and grew fat. She had unusually thick fur, which was probably the reason, and when she be- came the mother of seven kittens, the manager of the warehouse had them very carefully nursed and looked after. They grew fat and seemed to feel no discomfort in their cold quarters. Their fur was unusually long ‘and thick. When they were grown they were di- vided among the different cold-storage warehouses of the city, and from them has grown a peculiar breed of cats, fitted naturally for the cold places in which they live. These cats are short- tailed, chubby pussies, with very thick hair and under fur. So used are they to their cold homes that if one of them is taken outside, particularly in hot weather, it will die—New York Times. Aeration vs. Cooling.—In speaking of milk these two terms are often con- founded, says the Rural World, while really the benefits derived from cool- ing milk are quite distinct from those accomplished by its aeration. Thor- ough aeration drives from the milk all odors derived from strong or acid foods, such as cabbage, turnip or silage. Aeration also removes any stable odors which may have been absorbed during the milking. Cooling, on the other hand, puts the milk in a condition least favorable to the growth of the milk- souring bacteria. Of these, hundreds exist, in even the most carefully handled milk. Their multiplication is most rapid in milk at animal tempera- ture, and the lower the temperature the slower their growth; hence the value of a thorough cooling. Baron von Stumm’s organ, the Post, publishes an article calling attention to the fact that 3,308 horses were im- ported from America during the first seven months of 1897 and insisting that this new import ought to be ex- cluded. 4 Venture is a slippery road, : 3 -adays, Very Natural. Recently two gentlemen. driving in a wagonette, were smoking, when a spark falling from one of their cigars set fire to some straw in the bottom. The flames soon drove them from their seats; and while they were busy extin- guishing the fire, a countryman, who had for some time been following them on horseback, alighted to assist them. “I have been watching the smoke for some time,” said he. ° “Why, then, did you not give us notice?’ asked the travelers. } “Well,” responded .the man, there are so many new-fangled notions now- I thought you were going by —Edinburgh Scotchman. Value of the Worm. In old pastures in England the worms are estimated at 22.000 to the acre, and as many 54,000 in richly- ivated pastures. The number of in the rich pastures near Auck- land, N.
