THE FIRST CLOCKS.
On at 1'ailna That Was a Wonder
of 3Ieihanlani.
It was, we are told, in 1309 that the
first clock known to the world wai
placed in the tower of San Eustargio,
In Milan.
The greatest astonishment and ad
miration were manifested by crowds
who flocked to see the timepiece. In
1344 a clock was installed in the pal
ace of the nobles at Padua. This was
a wonder of mechanism indeed, for be
tides Indicating the hours it showed
the course of the sun, the revolutions
pf the planets the various phases of
the moon, the months and the fetes
of the year.
The period of the evolution from the
clock to the watch was seventy-one
J ears not so very long, all things con
sidered and the record of the first
watch Is 1CS0. A half century later
an alarm dock made its appearance.
This, we are told, was looked upon
by the people of that age as "un in
strument prodigieux."
' The fortunate possessor of this clock
was Andrea Alclato, a councillor of
Milan. The chroniclers have placed
on record that this clock sounded a
bell it a stated hour, and at the same
time a little wax candle was lighted
automatically. How this was done we
are not told, but it must not be over
looked that until about seventy years
ago we had no means of obtaining a
light other than the tinder box, so
that the Milanese must have been cen
turies ahead of us in this respect.
Not much progress was made with
the watch until 1740, when the second
hand was added. London Globe.

A parliamentary candidate lost quite
a number of votes by making a gen

promised his better half that if he
were successful at the poll he would
buy her a new sealxkln coat and hat
to match. His wife was so pleased
with this kindly offer that she at once
went and told all her lady friend
about it. Every lady to whom this
piece of news was Impaired, of course,
said to the candidate's wife at once,
' Oh, how very nice, dear!" but equal

Most people know potatoes at
boiled, baked and warmed over. Plain
boiled and mashed for variants on
the first; creamed and fried on the
last, and nothing you can do to a
baked potato, if properly baked, can
Improve it.
Baked potatoes are more easily
digested than if cooked In any other
way, but to be at their best should
be subjected to a heat sufficient to
crisp the skins without burning them.
A potato baked in a slow oven Is not
equal to one from a good hot one.
Baked potatoes are the proper
thing to serve with cold meats. Se
lect smooth, medium sized potatoes,
and time the baking so they will be
Just done, not over-baked and soggy,
when the meal is served. A baked
potato Bhould 4e eaten at the psy
chological moment.
Boiled potatoes should be cooked
slowly in a covred kettle. Most
cooks advise putting them into boil
ing salted water. Harper's cook
book, compiled by some of the most
famous domestic experts In the coun
try, advises putting them into suffi
cient cold water to cover them and
adding more as necessary. When
done, pour off the water and let them
stand, partly covered, till dried off,
shaking the kettle occasionally. To
let them stand In the water after
they are done is to spoil them. If
dinner is delayed, fold a clean towel
and lay over the potatoes instead of
the lid; this will keep them hot and
lu good condition for some time.
Women Wear Mavblraps.
Hush-h-h! It is quite possible you
know it already, but it is a secret.
Just the same, and it never would do
to have it talked about; but the fact
la that all we girls are going back
to the fashion of our grandmothers
and yes, wearing nightcaps. But the
nightcap of to-day is a very different
affair from those that were worn fifty
or sixty years ago. Those were frank
ly ugly, usually made of some coarse
and heavy material, which covered the
heafl completely, extending over the
ears and under the chin. They were
worn for warmth, for there was no
steam heat at that date, and bedrooms
often were chilly. The nightcaps of
to-day are beautiful affairs of laces
and silks and all kinds of dainty
weaves, the New York Press says, and,
though the man who buys one might
be inclined to doubt it, they have the
reason of their existence in the mo
tives of strict economy. With the
elaborate styles of coiffure that now
are in fashion women find they can
fritter away a most unwelcome propor
tion of their pin money on their hair
dressers, and they have taken to
nightcaps so that after their hair has
been fixed up for a dinner or theater
party in the evening they can save it
from being mussed up at night and
preserve the effect of a single visit to
the hairdresser for at least two or
three days.

Just as the Jackson Park train was

"Who is Miss Alma Brifgs?"

anybody I ever saw. She kills It with
her yardstick. Sh Is a Poisoner of

Oh, you Just wait!"
"But Burely you needt. t fear rivalry,
although she does talk by the yard,"
Beatrice protested, wickedly.
"I scorn your base insinuations. Miss
Blnnchard," her cousin retorted. "I
merely point out your error. I Bald

would be more accurate fo;t rule, T
square, spirit level she Is an expert
in the use of them all. I hear her
footstep upon the stair. Kindly be
conversing with your usual brilliancy
and grace and keep it up if you
can!"
Curious and mystified, Beatrice roso
a moment later to meet the caller a
middle-aged lady with a pleasant, ca
pable face. She shook hands with
Beatrice, whom Marian introduced as
her cousin, but turned abruptly to
Marian at the word.
"But, my dear, I thought you had no
cousin in the world."
"Beatrice's mother and mine are
cousins," Marian replied, "so we have
always counted each other so."
"Ah, I understand. Then you have
at least one first cousin onre removed,
and you and she are second cousins."
"But it would he so dreadful to
have to feel second-cousinly," Marln.u
protested, whimsically. "Don't you
think so, Miss Brigs? 'Cousin' Is a
nice, warm, sunny word, like that west
window ; second cousin sounds so very
northeasterly."
"Why, Marian, that window doesn't
face the west; it's only a trifle we.it
of the south. You can tell by Royal
street, which runs directly east and
west."
"Yes'm, I suppose it is," Marian
agreed, meekly. "Only you tee It would
take so, long to think sou'-sou'west ev
ery time."
"There is no excuse," Miss Brigs'
answered, firmly, "for not thinking of
things as they are."
The converastion, after this easy be
ginning, went on for an hour. When
finally Miss Briggs left, Marian looked
at her cousin.
"Do you understand now?" she
asked.
"And yet," Beatrice said, thought
fully, "she was right every time."
"Right?" Marian whirled about, !nr
eyes flashing. "Of course she's right

The trouble is, spirit ltsn't measurahl-J
and a real conversation is spirit, not
feet and Inches. It's hu.mor a'nd fancy
and whim, and lovely fleeting glimpses
of new country, not a problem In alge
bra. If there was any moral issue In

there isn't. It's merely exactitude

An Impractical Joker.
Practical joking, "the meanest form
of wit," is common in Hungary. For
merly the pranks used to be coarse, if
not dangerous,-but that is changing
now. The only saving grace of the
Magyarian practical Jokes, says W. B.
F. Bovll in "Hungary and the Hun
garians," is that they are not perpe
trated in a spirit' of bitterness.
One of the most famous Jokers of the
old school was Jozsa Gyurl. Exiled
in one of the most Inaccessible parts
of the great plain, he lived aud died
"a prodigal and a buffoon."
A story Is told of Jozsa going to
spend a night with a Count Keglevich.
Wishing to be impressive, he Journey
ed thither in a beautiful new coach,
of which he was very proud. On be
ing shown over the grounds by the
count, his attention was directed to a
remarkably lice hay-rick. Hay was
then standing at a good price. After
supper Jozsa drew together some
friends, and the rick was soon noth
ing but a heap of ashes.
The next morning, when Jozsa want
ed to continue his Journey, his won
derful carriage was not to be seen
anywhere.
"Why, my friend," said the count,
"you yourself burnt It last night. The
fact is, my roach-house wants repair
ing, and as the evening threatened
to be wet, we put your carriage under
the rick to keep It dry."
The Faintly Itriunai,
It is characteristic of philosophers
and scholars thut, oute their mind is
made up, it in almcst Impossible to
change it They do not want it changed.
The late Charles Eliot Norton, in his
lectures on the history of urt, is end
ued with a story illustrating this
point. Mullock, the philosoph -r, oru e

Mulicck was a wise man, but he ;inj
Curijle differed in thtlr views, uud
therefore Carlyle dubb'-d Matlock's

Then he ro;e to 0. At the door
Carlyle, who had iii)o',v .'he whole,

from his mctith and said, mildly:

What t'rete Would tout.
Present trouble in the East has
brought out the uardonlc humor of at
least fine Turkish gentleman.
"Would your hlighrtfs." said an en
terprising Italian journalist to the
Grand Vizier of the time, "consent to

Tertainly," replied the Turk. "Any

Cheap fertilizers are concerning
many farmers. There are none better
nor cheaper thun good barnyard ma
nure. A well-broken horse will stand un
til his owner adjusts the robe, takes
up the reins and gives him the word
to go.
All straw, stalks, etc., used for litter
in the pheep barn should be run
through a cutter to increase the power
of absorption.
Dairy profits should go into the
pockets of the farmers and not the
feed dealers'. If they don't, there is
something wrong.
Raspberries do well In any soil that
will produce good corn. Plant In rows
six feet apart and two and one-half
feet apart in rows.
Get one or more packages of the
mixed seeds of perennial and bienni
als and plant them In rows or beds
and see what they will give you.

could, keeii him, he is a rare find.
If all the fence corners and waste
spots now given over to worthless
weeds were planted In fruit trees, the
face of the landscape would be changed
Sot the better.
Be sure fruit trees are set where
they will have sufficient drainage.
Many a tree is blamed by its owner
for being a bad variety, when the fault
is in the drainage.
Raise hoes. There is no danger of
the market being overstocked for two
years at least, and the hogs will bring
paying prices until there are more in
the country than the markets demand.
A funny Sltonllon.
In selecting the site for the garden,
It must be remembered that most
vegetables require sunshine as well as
plant food and moisture. Other .things
being equal, a southern exposure is
preferable, as this gives a maximum
amount of sunlight and will Ve favor
able for the growth of early plants.
Care should be taken to avoid a north
ern exposure or a site sheltered from
the sun by buildings.
Protection from Stable Filth.
Filth on the udder and hind quar
ters of the cows is not only unsightly
but unsanitary both for the cows and
those who use the .milk produced from
such animals. There are several de
vices for preventing a cow from lying
down In her own filth.
The most common Is the gutter be
aind the animal for receiving the drop
pings. Another plan is to place a 2x4
plank across the stall at the rear
ibout even with the cow's hind feet.
When she lies down she will always
iie in front of this board where the
droppings fall. The floor should slope
!rom front to back.

Just because you use hens for hatch

test the eggs. Why not test every egg
set? It is foolish to let the hens keep
a lot of Infertile eggs warm for three
weeks. Borrow, buy or make an egg
tester, and learn how to use It. Duck
eggs or whlteshelled hen eggs are
easier to test than dark-shelled egga
or turkey eggs, but one can soon learn
to tell the fertile eggs from the In

their chicks an soon as they are
hatched with sloppy, slushy (some-
tmes sour) messes. The chicks can
eat this kind of stuff very rapidly, and
so they are given all they can hold.

Insect 1'ateher.
In this country all sorts of homely
devices are used to catch the bugs
and kill them, and an Oregon man,
who probably had his apple orchard
overrun by some destructive species,
patented a tray for the pests. A barrel
has pieces rut out of the upper por
ton and It half filled with rotten or
bruised apples or some other odor
iferous fruit. On top of the barrel is
placed a pan partially filled with wa
ter, oil or some poisonous liquid.
From the apex of a tripod that keeps
the basin from falling off the barrel
hangs a lantern. In the daytime the
insects wilt he attracted by the odor
of the fruit, and In flying up to feast
many of them are likely to fly Into
the water. At night the lantern is
lighted and bugs will come from afar
to flutter against it and meet their
death In the liquid below.
Number of Milch Cows.
The number of milch cows given by
the United States government report
Is 21,801,000, being 81,000 more than
in the previous year. There has been
a steady ncrease in the value of milch
cows per head, which Is an Indication
of the greater interest taken in the
dairy industry In more recent years.
In 1010 a milch cow Is said to be
worth $35.79, while in 1909 the price
was $32.36, and In 1908 $30.67. The
total valuation of milch cows Is placed
at $780,308,000.
New York heads the list of milch
cows with 1,771,000; Iowa follows with
1,570,000; Wisconsin, 1,506,000; Penn
sylvania, 1.140,000; Illnols. 1,232.000;
Texas, 1,137,000, and Minnesota, 1,125,
000. The smallest number (19.000) is
found in Nevada. The highest valua
tion per head 1b In New Jersey, where
the figures are $47.50.
Don't Guess Know.
Lots of men miss It by not trying
to find out how much their hogs cost
them to raise. A man In Michigan
runs no such risk. This Is the way be
told it to me:
"At the beginning of the week I
drive my hogs on the platform and
weigh them. I have scales close by
the yard so that I can do this without
too much trouble. Then I weigh all
the feed I give them and figure up
the cost for the week. At the end
of the week I drive the hogs on again
and weigh them. The difference is
what they have made me In the week
in return for the feed I have given
them. If the results are not what
they ought to be, I change my feed
to bring a profit."
Therels business for you. No guess
work about that. While we may not
all do that each week, we may keep
a careful account of the cost of the
feed we use for a given number of
weeks, say, and then, by getting the
weight of the hogs when sold, and fig
uring up the money they bring us,
we may get pretty close to the actual
profit or loss. I am satisfied that if
we did that for a single season It
would make ns open our eyes and set
us to doing things on a more business
like base.
The day Is coming when we will
have to bring nil our farm work down
to a Bystem. The haphazard method
Is always a dangerous and a very ex
pensive method. That Is why so many
farmers do not get ahead much. They
never know; they guess. Let's know,

Ilalalnir Onions.
The onion thrives best In a "rch,
well drained, loamy soil. To plant In
heavy clays, hillsides and stony land
Is a mistake. The ground for onions
should have been In some heavily-manured,
hoed crop the preceding . sea
son, and practically free from weed
seed. Onions can not thrive on weedy
or rundown land.
The Long Island farmers, who have
gained quite a reputation as onion
growers, use a fertllzer that analyzes
4 per cent nitrogen, 8 per cent avail
able phosphoric acid and 10 per cent
potash. They broadcast this at the
rate of 500 to 1,500 pounds to the acre.
It must be remembered that onion soil
can not be too rich. A top dressing
of coal ashes and hen manure Is an
excellent substitute for commercial fer
tilizer.
The most successful growers use
them all, and, in addition, from 250 to
750 pounds of nitrate of soda, ap
plied broadcast in three or four ap
plications durlnr; tlie growing season.
Land once prepared can be used for
growing onions year after year un
ices Insects cr diseases come in.
l!eg!n cultivation as soon as the
yomif; plants appear, using a wheel
hoe, which loosens the soil nn both
sides of the row and throws it slight
ly away fro:u the plants. Hand weed
IPS r.hould follow promptly, and thin
ning. If necessary. The plants should
stand about three inches apart In the
row, and if the soil is rich they will
stand crowding, and if It Is not suf
ficiently fertile it will pay to add
enough more fertilizers to mature the
crop rather than go to the expense of
thinning, unless the plants are alto
gether too close, which Is not likely
to happen from medium seeding.
Throughout the growing period the
crop should be hoed whenever weeds
appear or the ground becomes hard and
packed, practicing always shallow cul
tlvaton and keeping the ground level.
The field will need to be gone over
every two weeks. Cultivation may U
lessened when bulbs begin to form.

A Storekeeper Says:
"A lady came into my store lately and said :
'"I have been using a New Perfection Oil Cook-Stove all winter
in my apartment. I want one now for my summer home. I think
these oil stoves are wonderful. If only women knew what m
comiort tney are, they would all cava
one. I spoke about my stove to a lot
of my friends, and they were aston
ished. They thought that there waa
smell and smoke from an oil ttove.and
that it heated a room just like any other
stove. I told them of my experience,
and one after another they got one, and
now, not one of them would give hera
up for five times its cost.' "
The lady who said this bad thought
an oil stove was all right for qaickly
heating milk for a baby, or boiling
kettle of water, or to make coffee
quickly in the morning, but she never
dreamed of using it for difficult or
heavy cooking. Now she knows.
