Probably the most useful tree In the ■world is the cocoanut palm, every por tion of which is put to good use. The trunk Is used for building houses, for making furniture and farm Implements and countless other articles; hollowed Dut it makes a canoe. It^Jeaves are . used for thatching, the leaWstalks for paddles and fishing lines. The blossom In bud makes preserves and pickles, besides serving as a staple vegetable. From the pith of the trunk Is derived a kind of sago, and from the flowers sugar, vinegar and toddy, which, af ter fermentation, becomes arrack. The ripe cocoanut is a valuable articles of diet. The white kernel produces a de licious cream, a good substitute for cow's milk, while the oil Is used as a lubricant, for soap and candle making. It Is also applied to counteract the stings of scorpions. The refuse of the oil, or oil cake. Is valuable as food for f animals and poultry, and as manure for the soil. From the shell drinking cups, spoons, lamps, bottles, firewood, and even tooth powder are obtained. The husk supplies fibre for mattresses and cushions, brushes and mats, ropes, cables, nets and even the harness for bullocks. The webb sustaining the foot stalks is made Into strainers and torch es. The tree acts as a conductor In protecting houses from lightning. White Powder on Nutmegs. From the Providence Journal.

In every human production there is a touch of individuality peculiar to the worker and so it is with the American garden. The smooth lawns with only a few gorgeous flowers beds or borders and well-kept trees axe the universal and prac tically only style of garden in America, it,; bmh bmh bmh bmh bmh bmh bmh A Japanese newcomer to this country writes that seeing these plain green front grounds for the first time, she was under the impression that the real garden ex isted in the rear. Now, knowing that this is not the case, the striking display of na tional characteristic appeals to her, and she expresses herself thus; “The exposure of a private garden to the public enjoy ment-cultivating it In front of the house, along the street, with no barriers to se clude il—seems to reveal a spirit of co operation and open-heartedness. What a boundless benefit it is for the public to have the roadside thus brightened and beautified with various flowers and greens, which man adores by nature. A wretched beggar may enjoy the smile of spring as much as the owner of a garden; poor tene ment house children may be as familiar with nature as any favorites of fortune. Here continental magnanimity Is exhibit ed, in decided contrast to our self-seeking seclusion, natural to all islandexs. But i have a slight discontent in this full decoration of front grounds, for, be sides its lack of artistic design, I see in it —perhaps because of prejudice—the same motive displayed as in making an array of dishes on dining room walls, or in hav ing all of one’s beautiful pictures in sight at one time, the exhibition of all one’s choicest possessions, which does not ac cord with the Japanese idea of liking to use silk lining for cotton clothes." But she must and does adnadt that none but such a form of garden could keep har mony with the commanding American houses and their practical inhabitants. If one were to settle miniature rock moun tains and artificial ponds, with log bridges and antique stone lanterns upon the sunny open grounds before enormous colored buildings, the result would be Incongruous, not to say ridiculous. No more w’ould an up to date American woman prove to be a fitting figure in the quiet colored shady scenes of a Japanese garden. The imaginative gardens of Japan, to gether with their lowly thatched cottages, may furnish some pleasure-ground sug gestions for this country while it Is like ly that the practical gardens of America wfill be more frequently adopted by the Japanese.

From London Answers. If ever there was an inthusiastic fisher man It was old Jones. He was quite con tent to sit for hours on the bank of tho stream, hoping for a bite, and if he didn’t get one, his mind thrilled at the thought of what splendid sport he had two years ago. Thus he wras found by a fellow angler. Fished long in this stream?” he asked pleasantly. “Twenty-three years,” was the laconic response. “Then this stream must be worth fish ing in,” went on the stranger. “You must get a lot of bites.” N Gazing intently at his rod, Jones replied with zest: “Two years ago in this very spot I had as fine a bite as anyone need wish for. Aid I shall get another yet.” NO RELIEF FROM ECZEMA For Over Two Year.—Potent Modi cinea, Quack Corea out!

Beltz, Tipp© canoe, Ind., Nov. 15. 1905.” The Drum and the Sticks, It Is mighty hard for most people to re sist temptation to Joke. Last night a band played In the lobby of the Albany hotel In honor of the delegates to the laundrymen'i convention. After the music was over the band was told to return at 9 and play some more. The snare drummer asked the cigar girl if he might leave his drum with hei until he returned. She took the drum and put It on a shelf behind her and then her' troubles began. The first man who step ped up to the stand to buy a cigar smiled and said: "Trying to drum up a Utle business, ara you?" The girl laughed, but did not reply to the Joke. The man bought hJs cigar and moved away, very well pleased with him self. Next came one of the visiting laun drymen. Ho saw the drum. “I may need the drum when the con vention's over," he said. "Is it for sale?" “No,” replied the girl. "But why do you think you may need It?" "Oh, I may have to beat my way home." said the laundryman. He also went away delighted with himself. Next came a dudish young fellow who wanted a package of clgarets. He noticed the drumsticks. "Well,” he said, In a loud voice, "a per son who works with a drum near by nat urally sticks to his business. The girl didn't crack a smile. But a traveling man standing near by did.

THE TURKEY CROP. Last fall when I was traveling through Missouri I noticed a great many Hocks of turkeys on farms. Often one would see a bunch of from fifty to 100, big, bronze fellows that would weigh from fifteen to twenty-five pounds and when these would sell from $1.60 to $2.50 each. It will he seen that the business Is very profit able. The expense of raising them Is very small, as turkeys are great for agers and they pick up their living about the farm where bugs and grass hoppers are plentiful. Those who are very successful tell me that turkeys are very hard to raise up to five or six weeks, us they are very puny and liable to all sorts of complaints. But, hav ing passed that period, they are no more trouble and grow very fast. Tur keys cannot stand confinement as well as chickens, and It Is best to allow them to follow their own Inclination and roost In the trees or on the sheds, Instead of on low perches. There Is nothing better than corn for fattening, and they must be given all they will | eat for three or four weeks Just before marketing. THE CLOVER SEED CROP. There Is sura to be a very heavy demand this season for clover seed, and current high prices are bound to fetch on to the market a great deal of poor seed. Thei;e seems to be no way to effectively debar the inferior seed from the market, for as one dealer puts It, eight farmers out of ten will buy the seed cheapest In price. There Is need of more than ordinary caution this season, because of the urgency of the situation. There Is no economy In buying seed, 40 per cent, contamina tion, at $8 per bushel, when clean, high-grade seed may be had at frefm $10 to $12. Low grade seeds are slow to germinate, and a large per cent, of even the pure seeds will fall to germi nate at all. If there is anything whtfch It will pay to buy, because of cheap ness, It Is not seeds of any kind. FARM FACTS. There Is a great deal of carelesB work about stacking. hay. It Is us ually a hurry job and not enough pains are taken to straighten out the fork fuls, Where the unk iding is done by slings several hundred pounds are dumped on the stack at one time. Un less the stacker straightens out these rolls with the fork, the stack is bound to take water whenever It rains. Farmers who grow clover for seed should encourage some one to run a clover huller. Seed threshed out by the ordinary huller is worth a $1 a bushel more than seed threshed by the ordinary machine. Too often country school teachers are city bred young men or young women, who have no thought or lik ing for agriculture. They are not the teachers who can show pupils the ad vantages of farm life. A recent case of scours among a bunch of neighbor's calves shows the Importance of giving careful attention to the feeding palls. These palls had been used for over a month, and dur ing all of that time had not been thoroughly scalded. The only attempt at cleaning was rinsing with cold wa ter. A short time ago one of the calves was taken with a bad case of scours and died. Three others of the bunch now look as If they would not pull through. Pioneer days may have past In the central west, but the pioneer practice of throwing the manure out of the horse stables and allowing It to lie there for months, has not passed by a long ways. Frequently one sees the accumulation of six months or more heaped up against the sides of the stables. Every ton of that manure which was thrown out last winter has now lost at least BO per cent, of Its value. The fall Is the ideal time to scat ter manuie. Why not make one Job of it and scatter the manure thinly now, instead of putting it in piles and then go over and scatter with a fork next spring. It Is economy to make the manure go as far us you can, and then go over the Helds more fre quently. Many orchards have been hurt this season with sun scald. The way to pre vent such Injury is to head trees Jow, so that the trunk is shaded. Where trees have been headed high the only thing to do is to protect the trunks with building paper, boards or anything that will break the sun. Timothy hay Is the kind In greatest demand fop horse feeding In cities. Hera hay sells upon its quality. One may think he can fool his own stock with poor hay; but let him send a load ol over-rjpe, badly colored hay to mar ket. The returns will show that city hay buyers are up to snuff. Sometimes hogs will not thrive, al- i though they have an abundance of pas- ! turo auct grain. There Is such a thing as keeping hogs too long on clover and the system demands something else. Cut down the rations for a while and feed some charcoal, salt and copperas. This frequently will start a hog on the upgrade. If the garden has been a failure this yettr start right this fall for better re sults next spring. Pile on well rotted manure and turn up the ground this' fall for a thorough freezing. And then ’ don't try to grow vegetables and weeds ' on the same piece of ground. An experiment station states that the : value ol' the manure made on a farm i where twenty cows, four horses, fifty sheep and ter. pigs are kept, Is around I $600. and that about one-half of It is in the liquid manure. There does not seem to be any Imme diate danger of the American hen or cow clogging the market. It seems that the appetite of American people for dairy and poultry goods Is growing faster than the output. Just think, the poultry and eggs of this country are worth more every year than our corn, i oats and hay crop combined. Keeping sheep Is profitable, providing i one can keep clear of ailments and pests. When stomach or tape worms get hedd of the lambs they soon play havoc. These tilings must be handled promptly and handled right. i KEEPING MILK AND CREAM. During the warm weather tt la dift. cult to keep cream or milk In the beat condition without Ice. The greatest trouble that creamery managers have to contend with now la this lack ot condition, as It Is Impossible to maka good butter out ot poor cream. There are two things essential In keeping milk or cream, proper care o£ every utensil that touches the milk, and the milk or cream must be cooled as quickly aa possible and kept cool. A dirty milk pail sets bacteria to work before the milk Is strained. Milk setting about the stables becomes contaminated and trouble begins. To keep milk, first see that the cows do not drink muddy or foul water; get the milk out of the stables as quickly as possible, and then cool the milk, and don't mix milkings. Whut the dairyman most needs Is a good, cool milk house. Ice Is by far the easiest and cheapest refrigeration, but not all' dairymen are situated so that they can put up Ice, and many who ate suitably situated will not do IL Where Ice is not used then one must resort to cold water, or to the old-faahloned outdoor cave. Hut In order to keep milk and raise the maximum amount va comers. A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. (tow m Veteran Wm Saved tbe A m patatlam ef a Limb. B.

The department on account of Its Intimate personal flavor was the most popular thing in the paper.
