If it were understood how easily, and nt how little expense, a plant room enn be udded to tin ordinary farm or vil lage house, there would certainly be more of these useful and pleasure-giving adjuncts to country and suburban homes. The illustration gives a sug gestion of a very neat and simple addi tion that will let in enough sunlight, even though the roof be of shingles instead of glass, to keep plants growing thriftily all winter and to start a large assortment of plants for the kitchen garden, which will bring vegetables upon the table at least a month earlier than is now the case. In cold climates WINTER PRECAUTIONS. ; ini:xi'i:nsivi: "JUT. uiu:i:nhousi:, the season for garden growth is too hhort to give us the full beneilt of fruits and vegetables. A sunny room like Hint tlgured here will very materially lengthen the season, and with a sueces kIoh of plantings after the weather be comes warm will mnke the garden a joy throughout the whole summer. If desired, such an addition can have the roof of glass also, which will force plants along still faster, but this is not necessary, and will increase the cost of building and of heating. With a .southern exposure and windows about three sides, as shown in the sketch, Aery excellent results may be obtained. An oil stove may be used for heating; or a hot water pipe, or a hot air Hue irom the furnace or boiler, if one is used for heating the house, may be carried into the plant room, lluild light to keep the wind out, and heat ing will be a comparatively easy matter.

The Utah Sugar company has begun a novel use for the waste product from the works at Lehi, known as by-product, or molasses, lloads are actually be ing constructed with the sirups, which are valueless as sugar producers, the life having been extracted. The mo lasses is used as a cement, the body of the road material being made up of gravel. This new method was lirst used on the road leading from tin; country load to the sugar factory, and the travel over this thoroughfare since the open ing of the sugar season has demon i tinted the value of the sirups and gravel as materials for the improve ment of roads. The piece of road that has been .so improved is as hard as macadam, and even the heaviest loaded wagons do not cut it up. The bit ups are lirst poured over the roadway to ho improved, and then a layer of gravel ii sprinkled on. More sirup and gravel follow in their turn, until the road is in perfect condition. There seems to be just sullicient potash salts in the mo lasses to give it the necessary cement ing qualities. This making of roads and walks with refuse sirups from sugar factories lias also been successfully tried in Cali fornia. It is not at all unlikely that at the end of the present season the com pany will make more improvements on the roads leading to the factory. At iinst the molasses showed a tendency to ooze up through the gravel, but the application of an extra coating of gravel remedied this and made the road as smooth as a Hour and as hard as pavement.

That is put ting linseed meal about where it oo longs, in the list of medicines. The nose of a feverish cow is hot, and when that is the ease a dose of Epsom salts will often be all that is necessary, except that the rations should be less ened. A well-known dairyman declares that lie gets two dollars for every dollai's worth of grain that he feeds in summer. It is pretty diilieult to get a better in vestment than that. In South Dakota some of the cream ery companies propose to hold dairy schools In the schoolhouscK. If npv such schools are in your neighborhood, l),v all means attend them. Would it astonish anybody if wo should say that millions of dollars are wasted In the dairy by unscientific lei-ding'.' Wo bellevo It.

In the production of milk, whether for market, for homo consumption or for butter, It is of the first importance that it be produced from healthy stock fed on wholesome feed and pure drink, and in healthy surroundings. 1 f at any time any cow should show evidence of disease she should be separated from the herd at once. Further, that the utmost cleanliness be observed in the care of the cows, of the stables and the Immediate surroundings, and especial ly that the milking be done and the milk handled prior to bottling or ship ping so as to prevent, as far as possible, any foreign substance from being in troduced therein, says the secretary of the iew Jersey board of agriculture in his address to dairymen. He careful also as to leaving milk in open vessels exposed to foul air of any sort, as it is a quick absorbent of bad odors and dis ease germs. Otherwise it may become the means of spreading contagious dis eases. Further, all persons who have the care of cows or of the milking ves sels and w ho do milking should be free irom consumption and other conta gious diseases, as such diseases have been communicated to others through niiJk thus handled. As to the stock: If you raise your own dairy, breed from healthy parents. If you purchase stock, have them care fully examined by a competent veterin arian, and especially as to the condi tion of the udders. Stables should be so constructed as to be light. Many btables are deprived of the needed light and sunshine. Moth are germ-destroyers. A southern exposure, if possible, with cows on the sunny side, with plenty of windows (not holes in the sides with a shutter); jirovide these with inside shutter or curtain of some coarse material to prevent cold at night. Ventilation must be sullicient to supply a necessary quantity of fresh air all the time, but avoid draughts. No ani mal should be fastened in a stall under a constant current of air, but it is not necessary to freeze an animal in a poor stable in order to have fresh air. liive the cows room; not necessarily a wide stall, but room back, front ami over head. Liberality in the use of lumber in dairy stable construction will pay a large profit in the health of the dairy, other tilings being supplied. Stables should be cleaned regularly every day. A light sprinkling of gyp sum (land plaster) in the gutters aft er cleaning will assist in absorbing the foul odors and aid in preserving the valuable plant food in the manure. Feeds, fodder and drink should be given regularly and be of such char acter as not only to contribute to u profitable yield of milk, but also to the health and contentment of the animal. X. Y. World. THE HOME GROUNDS. How to Itulld ii TiiHtt.'ful Kami Approach at .Small Cnst. There are many good reasons for at tempting to beautify the grounds about one's premises, be it farm, village ir eijy home. There are especially good reasons why such an attempt should be made on the farm, for here nature i very willing to aid one in the attempt. Hesides, if more efforts were made to make the country home attractive, there would be less complaint that the children will not stay upon the farm. It only requires some taste and a little work occasionally to fix up a country home so that it will lie wonderfully at tractive. A step in this direction is the making of an attractive entrance road, as one always notes this first on ap proaching a place.

It, calls for a hedge along- the front and two cobblestone posts, one on eitlu-r side of tht! driveway. Such posts can be built of round field stones. A little cement and lime is all the necessary ex pense, for one ought to be expert enough to lay the stone up himsef, .smoothness not being' a desired charac teristic. Let the hedge end agaiiibt these posts and let there be some shrub bery and trees growing just inside the entrance. The driveway ought to enter on a curve, as the effect is in this way greatly heightened. Let this road way be slightly rounded to prevent wash from rains. If it is desired that means be provided for closing '.his entrance occasionally, provision can lie made for stretching two heavy iron chains from post to post, staples being inserted in the posts as the stones aru laid.

When our reporter visited her store she, In response to aipiestloii, toldliini a very interesting story. "Until about two months ago," Bhcbcgnn, "I enjoyed the very best of health and could work night and day if necessary. Suddenly, and without any apparent cause, 1 begun to suffer irom intense pains in my bead, in my limbs and temples. Almost distracted with this scomhigly never ending pain 1 tried cure after euro, prescription after prescrip tion and almost a gallon of medicine of all kinds. Nothing did me any good, lit fact 1 hocfimo worse. Tho knuckles of my bunds soon became cramped and the pain in my hips became more- and mure distressing cuch day. Business in tho store hud to bo intend ed to, however, and so 1 was obliged, sutTor ing us I was, to keep more or less on my feet, utid occasionally I was forced to go out. This waa the ordeal 1 dreaded. Each tune 1 wont out I trembled when I came near tho car tracks, for my pain nt times was so severe that I was obliged to stand perfectly still, no matter where I was.

Horo wib something I hadn't tried before, and I lost no time in getting to tho nearest drug store. There 1 paid fifty cents for a box of theso trulv wonderful, health-restoring pills. Def ore f hud finished taking half of tho pills 1 began to feel re lieved; tho pains in my hips gradually dis appeared, and for tho first tlino in inany days 1 felt as if thoro was some hope I continued to take tho pills, and the moro I took tho hotter I felt. 1 finished ono box, got another, and now, having taken only a few of tho second fifty cents' worth, I inn free from all p.iln and as happy us the day fs long.

Tho other enso was one in which tho juice of n gooseberry acted as a power ful excitant and produced at once u vir ulent skin eruption.
