Chancellor Creighton, of Lincoln, was in Omaha yesterday and was induced to remain and attend the quarterly union meeting of the Methodists of the city, which was held in the ovening at the South Tenth street church. The chancellor related the tactics by which the general conference was secured for Omaha, and the maneuvers would have done credit to veteran politicians, The dole- gates from Nebraska agreed to work for tho eneral conference and & book dopository at maha, for a bishop at Lincoln and a north Nebrasia representative on the missionary committee. When it came to locating the bishop the resolution read “Lincoln or Omaha” in anticipation of objections that wight be raised to the former on account of its nearncss to Topeka. There was a similar resolution 1n the case of California, naming “San Francisco or Los Angoles.” By soms process not yet learned by Dr. Creighton Lincoln had been dropped from the resolu- tion und the bishop given to Omaha. The doctor said he had attended the ministerial union of this city during the day, and there v/as o disposition to urge the bishop to have his episcopate at Lincoln as agreed by the clerical dividers of spoil. The proposition of Omaha to entertain the genoral conferouce without chargo was i precedented and took Chicago, St. Louis and the east by surprise. They then offered to do as woll, but this supplementary bid was objected to as unfair. Tho book depository had to be abandoned in order not to jeopardize the other iuterests. A Musical Lutertainment, At Eighteenth and Cass streets Dr, J. E, Gardner, of the famous Wizard oil company, assisted by & corps of talented artisws, has for some length of time been giving free cal entertainments which rauk seoo ne on the road, and which are remark- well attended. Last evening nearly ree thousand five hundred people were in attendance, the streets being packed for nearly a block. While the object of Dr., Gardner, of course, is to advertise the merits of the medicine manufuctured by the firm he represents, the show is in every respect first class, and any one desirous of spending a pleasant evening would do well to visit the grounds. The eutertainment is void of thing of an objectionable character and is well patronized by ladies, who lend their presence in very large numbers, To any one desirous of spendiag a pleasant’ evening the Bee cannot reccommend a more suitable p Elegunt prosents are given away cach evening, among the number bestowed last night being a handsome gold watch and chain. The performance will be repeated this eveniug, beginning at 5:15. - FIELD AND FARM. Butter Working. A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer, sponking on this subject, says: I am only a farmer’s wife and know nothing of cream methods, or so-called ‘fancy dairying,’ but Thave had twenty- five yoars' experience in buttor-making, and have always aimed to producea first-class artic The fact that T have bheen able to retain first-class customers in the city year after year, proves that I have been at leust reasonably success- ful. I know that many assert that work- ing the butter destroys the grain, and it does, whem improperly done. I have seen butter, which came from the churn in as fine condition as could be desired, entirely spoilt, in my estimation, before the salting was accomplished, by being mixed and plastered around in the bowl asnman mixes mortar, Many advo- cate the thorough washing of the butter with clear water or brine, but after repeated trials of this plan I have settled down to the convie- tion that it is better not to do this if it can be avoided. If there is any danger of white specks in the butter (which there should not be if the milk and cream have been properly managed) it can he prevented by rubbing the eream through a wire sieve, taking much less time than washing. After the butter taken from the churn it should be very eavefully handled, lifting it always from the sides of the bowl into the middle until all the buttermilk has been pourod off. Then the very best dairy salt, in such proportion as suits your own and your customer’s taste, must be distributed evenly over the entire mass. ‘Then ‘chop’ your butter; never spread or plaster it to mix the salt. Here let me observe that a large, rounding ladle is much better than u flat paddle for the proper working of butter. “In cold weather I set my Itter, after salting, where it will keep firm, but not become so hard as to necessitate warming, or working with the hands. The next day I work out the buttermilk thoroughly and pack. In warm weather I work twice before packing. Tt must be remembered, however, that this is writton for th who make butter on a large scale. It is best to take abouy two pounds into the howl at a time. By hard pressure, rolling the ladle from side to side and constantly turn- ing the butter over, one can_get out all the milk and the grain wiil not be in- jured by the process. Managed in this way, butter may be kept for months perfect in flavor and color; whereas, if the buttermilk is not removed by thorough working the mass lacks solid- ity and will become rancid if kept any lenth of time. “*What is more inviting on the break- fast or tea table than a compact, golden ball, neatly stamped, with a dewy look on the surface? When I see butter loose and porous, with the buttermilk oozing out when it is cut, I think some very slack person made And_to see butter (?) broken off, deliver me!” Weeding Wheat. When a lad I knew a farmer, correspondent, who raised twenty- acres of wheat yearly and sold it all for seed, except what he used himself, at “‘a shilling a bushel” more than the market price-ot wheat because it was entirely frec from doing his crop brought ov than it would otherwise wheat was kept clean by weeding it. As soon ns the ground was dry in the spring two boys, each armed with an iron-shod spud (something like a two- inch chisel, with a long handle) and an open sack slung over the shoulder, pro- ceeded 1o pass over the wheat field in co-pace lands for the two, guided by stak in sowing broadcast. Cockle and red-root were the only weeds that bothered. These were dug up and carried 1o the border, and at noon and night taken to the highway. Ten acres y was their task. In two or three ks the ground was gone over afain, cross-wise of the first weed- ing. It not ouly paid, but was the cause of much satisfaction in having wheat perfectly elean. When pre- pared for sale the farmer had a stand- ing offer of a dollar for every cockle or redroot seed that could be found in it, but his treasury was never reduced on that account. but The Value of Ensilage. Among the results of the Wisconsin institutes held last winter, says the Farmers Review, in which were thor- oughly discussed the great value of ensilage and fodder corn, a large num- ber of silos were built last season and thousands of acres of corn were grown for ensilage or dry fodder by the dairy men of the state. This proved most fortunate, in view of the short hay erop. Without their ensilage or fodde corn any dairymen would have found it difticult or impossible to have wintered their stock except at heavy cost. At the late meeting of the State Dairy- men’s association a great amount of testimony was given on the value of ensilage as the cheapest food available to the dairyman. One dairyman said he od forty cows ~ six months from November 1 to May 11 from the ensilage grown on sixteen acres, or two and a half cows to the acre, or at the rate of sixty-six weeks’ feed for one cow from one acre, Hiram Smith said ensilage increased the milk yield 20 per cent, and also in- creased the butter, but not to so large an extent. Another fed ensilage with a little hay and bran,and made a pound of butter from seventeen and a half pounds of milk. A few days since the writer met a Du Page county (Illinois) farmer, who milks forty-five cows ,send- ing the milk to Chicago, who said that fifteen acres of fodder corn raised last season was all that saved him from dis- aster, as it furnished food in July and August when his pastures were abso- lutely bare, and is now, with the help of his short hay crop and a ration of bran, carryiog his cows through the winter in good shape. Dairy farmers make amistake in making ample n in growing liberal supplies of corn for ensilage or fodder. If the hay erop is short it will give them plenty of feed for their stock.” If good, they can buy more cows to winter or have hay to sell. Shying Horses. The Western Rural says on this sub- ject: Some one has expressed the be- ief that in the majority of cases shying is the result of imperfect vision, and we are not sure but there is a great deal in it. Wo know how the human vision is imperfect in various ways. We have color blindness, short sightedness, long sightedness, ete. When a horse becomes frightened at a perfectly harm- less object. It is certain that the ani- mal does not understand what the object is. A horse is not a4 fool, and yet a horse will shy frequently at what they must cum})relwnd the nature of if they could distinetly see it. It is better to take off the blinders on shyiug horses. Give them every opportunity to use all the sight they have to the very best advantage. Then be gentle with them. Whipping and abuse d> no good. It does harm. Usually it is bet- ter when tical to show the animal that the u)»'cct which has frightened them is perfectly harmless. Qf course isness has much to do with it freq tly, and sometimes it i the result of rfnvlul spirit. A wel balanced, headed, intelligent driver is about the best remedy that can be suggested for shying horses. It is Senator Palmer, we believe, who gays that 4 st coachman he ever had was a man know nothing atall about horses. Theminator’s instruction to him was always#emse the horse as he would himself, and&he man foliowed the di- rection with $he result of achieving a reputation fob being a caroful and ef- ficient horsedan, The advitg is good when given to a man of gmk“ tdgment and self-control. 1t would be had to give itto a man of opposite chavacter. extreme About Potato Bugs. As the potato bug is already at work among the young potato vines, says the Baltimore American, we give the fol- lowing hints for the use of the princi« pal remedy for their destruction. In apylying this poison itis much safer and quite as effect to mix it with water and P nkle it upon the plants with a small corn duster, than to mix with plaster and sift or scatter it upon the leaves, yet the latter method is practiced and highly recommonded on account of involving less labor than the other. The danger of applying in this form is the liability of inhaling the poison by the party who applies it, unless done in a dull day, when the air is still. One pound of the paris green mixed with 300 pounds of land plaster will do the work asefTectively as though o larger proportion of the poison was used. It can be applied by means of « sieve or sown on the vines with th hand. A very convenient device re- sembling a combination of pail and sieve, made especially for the purpose, facilitates the work. When applied in water, a tablespoonful of pure pavis green will be sufficient or an ordinary three-gallon bucket of water. By puiting the paris green into the empty bucket and filling with water from a faucet or pump, the poison will bocome pretty thoroughly mixed. but should be often stirred with the broom or whisp while applying the mixture. When the field is large the following arrangement, recommended by a corre- svnndnut of an exchange, can be profit- ably employed: *“To apply the paris green we use a cart, formed by placing the hind wheels of an ordinary lumber wagon on & home-made axletree, that is about seven feet in length. The wheel tracks are six feet apart, and will in- clude two rows. A strong paiv of thills was bolted to the axletree, and also a platform_on which to place a can of water. Four strong tin spouts were soldered into an old sixty-gallon milk can, near the bottom, and half-inch rubber tubes, four or five feet in length, attached. The usual watering-pot affixed to the other ond of s, and the can securely fastened on the cart platform. With this appa- ratus two men can apply the poison to four rows at avtime, and finish eight or ten acres inia day. 1f the rows are twenty rods din length, stirring the water at each. turning will be sufticient, but if of greater length, stops must be made for that purpose.” The Growing Grafts. Even before grafts open their buds there will he found other shoots issuing from the stock below the graft,. savs a writer in the New York Tribune. The sap enters these channels more readily, than in the somewhat dried up cells of thé graft, with the line of separation, left by the knife to be bridged qver; and if the volunteer channels are pot suppressed or reduced 1 time the graft may starve. Usually, however, ifin good sound condition and well set, it gets some share of the sap, its buds open,and its amount of growth depends largely on its heing cetected from 1ts greedy competi- T ordes its full growth s vipening of its wood, the wild shoots should be rubbed off as soon as they first show themselves and before are in leaf. To let them grow to some length and then suddenly brealk them off an_injurious violence—: sulation and growth which is very apt to prevent the full ripening of the new wood in time to safely en- dure the trials of the next winter. Salting Cattle. The usual custom of salting cattle by many farmers is a bad one, says an ex- change. Once a week, generally on the Sabbath day, he will fill a bucket with salt and scatter it on the ground in the feed lot with the litter and filth The cattle greedily lick it up and then fill themselves with water, from which serious and sometimes fatal results are experienced. The successful stoclkkman will keep salt in troughs under shelter, where the stock can help themselves at pleasure, or a still better plan 1s to keep rock salt where they can have access to it at all times and where they will not get too much of it at once. The Asparagus Bed. No matter how much care has been given to the proper planting of aspara- gus, it is easy to injure, if not to render worthless, the best bed by beginning to cut too early and by cutting too late. In planting, we have advised, says an ex- change, the setting of strong, vigorous roots, each with many good strong buds, The future treatment of these plants should be to keep the roots strong, and to keep them so well supplied with buds that a part of them, or the shoots from them, may be cut away without inlury. If we draw water from a cistern we pro- vide means of reglling it. The aspara- gus root is like a cistern; we draw upon it qy cutting the shoots, and we replen- ish it by allowing the green tops to grow and to form buds to lie dormant. When a new bed has been planted, the advico is given not to cut it until the third or even the fourth year, in order that each root may get so strong that it will stand the angual cutting. The best and most pruducfive bed ever made may be rumned by cutting it too late in the season. For family beds, the advice is given to stopcutting when qruun peas come. The grower on the large scale for markey jddges by the character of his crops when to cease cutting, In no other garden crop do we make so per- manent an inyestment an investment as in asparagus; aside from the first cost we invest th years of time and care; but if we uu%u properly the returns continue thegigh an indefinite number of years and paid each spring, No garden should be without au asparagus The Corn Crop's Enemics A correspondent of the Germantown Telegraph' thps writes concerning some of the pests of the farm: The corn crop is one of the most profitable of our crops, but the cutworm seems to lay claim to it and sometimes destroys a large percentage of it. Seveuly years among this crop, I know much of the habits of this insect. Like all evil doers it loves darkuess. Look for it in the day time and you will find it buried a num{ur of inches down. Just before day dawns you will find it quite near the ‘top, At 10 o’clock it is two or more inches bolow. It method is to eat the plant off just about the top of the round.

This was the method: Take about a half-pint of y dissolve it as quickly as possible, put in some six quarts of corn, stir it_one and a half minutes.then drain off the water. Stir in a little plaster of paris or some dry matter,which separates the kernels one from another. Spread it wll it cools.

Let the crows in where they have been shut out till the worms are quite plenty, and in two years hardly enough will be found to vay the crow for coming. To Get More Corn. This is what a good many farmers want to know, and here is a bit of sen- sible talk anent the matter. A scrap book item declares that the best way to et more corn is to get increased yield from the s A poor corn crop nece 0 much more labor that -arely pays a profit. But if the land is manured highly and cultivated thoroughly thie ~_crop rarely ne fails’ t0 pay. It is easily possible to double the corn yleld on the pr nt acreage, and that too without coming near the large yields which have been obtained in special cases. How many will thus try to double tvhe yield of their corn-fields this season? Farm Notes, By repeated cropping with the same crop 80ils are more quickly exhausted than where a rotation is pract The rotation is also useful in avoiding discases and insects which attack vegetation, It would appear from recent experiments with electrie light upon the growth of plants that this light is capa- ble of replacing sunlight, but whether this can be done economically has not as yet been proved.

Journal in a recent issue. e good folks who cry out so loudaly for naturalne: em to be oblivi- ous how largely the frietion of everyday life is avoided by well-considered arti- icinl What'is more perfect than the artificiality which makes a well- bred person conceal his feelings from the persistent button-holer, or the even more polished and enviable artificiality which enables the well-bred possessor of tact to shake of the attention of the bore, whose conduct, let it be remem- bered, is thoroughly natural? What is more graceful or necessary than the av tificiality with which a person of d« al from a stranger r friend the pain that is being ured or the grief that is felt. Those folks who pride themselves on their naturaln arve, after all, only in- dulging their innate selfiishness; i costs little trouble to be artificiul; it is ever so much easier to speak out what- ever first enters our heads. Beshrew such naturalness! A little artificiality will contrive to rob of its sting and an- noyance a piece of criticism or a picce of advice which would otherwise fail utterly of its purpose if it be any other than to ruffle the temper of the recip ient. With a little more artificiality introduced into married life, is it not evident that the sum of miscry caused by “incompatibility of temper” would be reduced? But no. We are told that we must be natural; and so hushand and wife go their own ways, regardless of each other’s failings, to conciliate which in any manner would demand a call upon that artificiality which is uni- versally decried and clumsily practiced. Would it not be far happier for both were they mutually to pretend to over- look, indeed not to notice, cach other’s troublesome failings? Would not thus a pgrain of artificiality succeed in en- abling even charactérs, otherwise ut- terly incompatible, to get on very sat- isfactorily? Indeed, wore this not well understood by a great number of ex- cellent people, how miserable would be the wor{d! . Mustan P >\‘ XICAN MUSTAN| ) Liniment M ANINE] 0Lb 80RLS, CAKED BUEAKTS A4d.
