vermin has been too many times told

The three worst posts that trouble
them are the sheep tick, sheep louse
and scab mite which to somothlng sim
ilar to the itch mite that attacks the
hands of dirty people. Crazier says
that if a lock of wool from a scabby
sheep is laid upon a theft of white
paper there will be seen particles
which look like moving dust Thcss
are scab mites. They are terrible in
their ravages. They burrow Into the
ani'"a' skin under the wool and set up
a running sore. The sore becomes
covered with a scab and the wool peels
Off. ' The itching to intolerable. The
suffering creature rubs itself against
fences and trees in it efforts for relief,
and it leaves wool and mites scattered
along its way, and the next sheep that
. comes past there will get the infection.
When wool from a scabby sheep to sold J
and passes into the hands of wool sort
ers, the mite attacks their bonds and
frequently produce wool-sorters' itch.
It to to be dreaded more than any other
scourge of sheep breeders, except
perhaps, dogs, and for this reason
must be guarded against vigilantly.
The moment a sheen in a flock to seen
to be losing its wool and rubbing
itself against posts and buildings
examine it at once, to see if
there to not a scab where the rubbing
and bare spots are. If so, separate it
from the rest of the flock, and give it
a dip into a mixture composed of four
ounces of tobacco stems, or coarse to
bacco and one of sulphur, stirred and
steeped thoroughly in a gallon of
boilieg water. This should be the
proportion, and the quantity used
should be sufficient to cover the sheep
all over except the head. The liquid
should be hot when the animal is
dipped not less than 129 degrees.
Rub the scab entirely off with a corn
oobor a coarse cloth. In two weeks
repeat and dip and the animal will be
cured. The loss from the scab mites
to the sheep raisers can not be calcu
lated. Sometime! whole flocks are de
stroyed. Asa precautionary measure
many extensive sbeop farmers practice
dipping tholr flocks twice a year in a
sulphur and tobacco decoct ion, onoe at
hearing time and again in the fall
TJie same decoction of sulphur and
ttfbacoo will destroy two other trouble

When the shoep are shorn In , tho

they torment till the helpless creatures

Bad habits among horses can best
be broken before the animals are very

does to prevent a young one from

If salt U properly applied, batter will
not absorb mors salt than is necessary to
preserve it through the summer. If but
ter has been worked too dry, so that tb
salt will not absorb, the dairyman will
havs butter that is too salt. Halt does
not preserve butter it only seasons it.
Quicker and hotter separation may be
secured by adding water to the milk la
summer. It is absolutely necessary to
add water in the fall and winter. When
the milk is vicious, and below the normal
temperature, , add warm water when
you set it to ereaiu.
Butter Is injured where be 1 put into

A King In a Tortoise-CheiL
The cradle that a queen fcliould
cIioom for Iter princely little baby
must Lea very prand affair, don't
you think so? Perhaps made of choice
or costly word, or even of precious
metal. In either case it must you
think, be nioHt beautifully shaped.
and perhaps carved with figures of
sweet little cherubs watching over the
favored mortal baby aslie sleeps soft
ly amid his clouds of fine linen and
delicate lace.
That may all le. What made me
think of it was something I beard a
traveller tell about within a few days.
Tliia traveller had lately come from
F'ance. While (n that country lie
visited the town of Pau, among the
Pyrenees mountains. In this town
high up, looking over the valleys,
stands an old, Old catlle, dark and
gray and gloomy. It was built in the
olden days w hen there was much fight
ing, and nobles and princes liad to
live incust leti, with walls made so thick
and strong to keep out their enemies
that the blcHHed sunlight was kept out
too, and the big rooms and halls were
dark and drnmnl enough. Here in
this castle of Pau in the year 1553,
said the traveller, lived the old King
of,Navarre, and here, in the same year
was born Lis grandson Henry, Prince
of Navarre, Thfterwards known the
world over al Henry the Great, King
of France and Navarre. He was call
ed great not only because lie knew
liow to head t lie armies of im king
dom, fiphting his enemies, but because
lie loved Ms people and tried to make
them happy and prosperous as well
as glorious.
ho Ins people loved him, and after
his deatli they cherished everything
that belonged to hint with the great
est care. Here, in his castle of Pan,
is still treasured the cradle in which
the rovnl Imliv was rocked to rpxt.
It is a cradle made all of tortoise
shell.
Shouldn't you think it would break
very easily? It would if it were thin
ana polished tortoine sbull, like a girl's
dainty bracelet, which is as brittle as
glass; but there is little danger of this
royal cradle meeting any such fate
no more danger than if the shell
were still on the back of the
turtle, its first owner! The shell is
not polished or altered in any way.
It was taken from the back of the big
sea-turtle (which had carried itso.long
and thought liiinwelf so safe in liia
stout shell-house), and was cleaned
and turned over on his back.
Then only a little blanket was laid
in it,Jor the young prince of Navarre
was not brought up delicately, and in
his very orndle was tattulit to lie
wrapped in a rottuli blanket, instead
of on soft cushions, amid luxurious
linen and lace.
The traveller did not tell the friend
with whom he was talking whither or
not the turtle-shell cradle was mount
ed on rockers. If not, how could the
cradle have been rocked without giv
ing the poor little baby a most terrible
jouncing? .
A little dot who was walking witn
the traveller and his triend, said that
he didn't think the little Prince Henry
had half so comfortable a time of it
as his own little baby brother nt
home; and I shouldn't wonder if that
were true. Hut perhaps, after all it
isn't good for babies to be quite so
comfortable. It may be more babies
would grow up to be strongand hardy
men and women if they were not
treated quite so tenderly at fust. St.

Boxing For Boys.
There is absolutely nothing in the
way of recreation so benelical in every
respect to a boy as boxing. I am
positive and I know whereof I write,
for ns a boy and man I have tried
them all, fencing, wrestling, rowing,
. . s
swimming, ruling tnat no one oi
them has the many advantages of
boxing. As an all-round develowr it
is unequalled; not one of the boy's
muscles remains inactive; back stom
ach, legs, arms, all are colled upon tori
vigorou service. Hut what I consid
er its best feature in its rccomenda-
tion for boys is the very thorough
drilling which the disposition of the
bov must undergo. It a lad is ntucic
to lose his temper, boxing will cure
him; it mil teach him that no one
who lets his temper get the best of
him will become an expert sparrer;
it will speedily convince him of the
ubsolute neccessity of keeping cool
and in entire possession of his wits in
order to sustain his efforts and avoid
defeat. The boxer who can not con
trol his temper is practically at the
mercy of a cool skillful opponent.
One can hot spar successfully and be
come flustered. A boxer must ever
be on the alert, his wits constantly
alive, looking for an opportunity of
assaults; he must be able to act in
stantly, and with cool deliberation,

action Harper's Young People.
The New Horae.
Jack was the new horse, whose com
ing into the stable was the talk of the
day, for within a week Jack had got
ten away from his master, run several
miles, and smashed a carriage into
kindling-wood.
Harry always led the horses from
their stalls down to the water trough,
and saw that they drank all they
wanted, and led thein , back again.
Harry was big enough to do such
tasks, "but not big enough to under
stand ' what a fiery-tempered horse
might do.
Harry went to Jack's stall, took the
halter strap in his hands, and started
for the water trough. Jack was in
lii?lt glee. Ho reared np n his hind
legs, layed down and rolled and kicked
ns high as the barn-yard fence.
Just as .his hind feet went up he
seemed to see little Hair' trembling
violently at the end of his halter strap.
He stopped suddenly, walked quietly
to the trough, drank, and let Harry
lend him back to his stall without an
other antic,

The Soudan Raven.
In Soudan the respect for the "bird
of the shade" is unbounded. He is
endearingly known to the Arabs ns
their "uncle," and they are more ex
orbitant in exacting blood-money for
his chance slaughter by the hand of
the stranger than if it were really the
relative in question. Shoot their
dove, their ostrich, Hieir varied scav
engers of the vulture kind their once
sacred ibis even and they grin and
bear it: but once aim a bolt nt the
"Noah bird" and a hundred lean but
ninsiutlar brown arms will be raised,
and the bereaved, whtte-teethed rela
tives will gesticulate and shout around
you, whfle they explain how black
fined was your accidental crime.
Apart from this, the raven, with its
jetty plumage, will always be a point
of interest in the Soudan, from the
strong contrast he presents to the or
dinary "desert colored birds which
preserve a neutral tint of gray or fawn,
which renders them almost invisible.

Smith'! diagram to parliamentary
rules, showing the relation of any mo
tion to every other motion, and answer
ing at a glance over 800 question in
parliamentary practice; together with a
key containing concise hinti and direc
tions for conducting the business of de
liberative assemblies.
A work designed for students, teach
ers, proffesslonal men, all who mar be
called upon to preside over business
meetings, all who ever have occasion to
take part in business proceedings, and
all who may wish to inform themselves
on the important subject of parliamen
tary roles. The subject is here pre
sented under an entirely new arrang
meat, by which a great amount of in
formation is presented te the eve at
once, in a marvelously condensed form.
By an ingeniously devised system of di
verging and converging lines, all the
rules applying to any given motion,
and all the motions coming under any
given rule are presented at one view,
facilitating immensely the acquisition
of a general knowledge of this subject,
and furnishing to a chairman instant
information on any point upon which
doubts may arise.
It is to the study of parliamentary
practice what a map is to the study of
geography.
Dear in mind that every member of a
deliberative assembly should under
stand parliamentary rules as well as the
chairman, to avoid the mortification of
moving out of order.
Size of diagsam, ' 12 by 61 inches
printed on bond paper. A key is ap
pended to the diagram, containing full
explanations, hints, and directions for
conducting deliberative proceedings,
printed on fine calendered paper, with
ornamental colored border. The whole
fiut up in neat muslin covers, embosssed
n jet and gold, convenient and dnrable
for pocket use.
