Best Kind of i'onltry to Keep
Tbis ifl a question ufteu asked, but
without knowing pome of the ciruum
tances of the Inquirer, it is as hard to
answer as would lie the simple inter
rogation, "What drR Hhould I kep,
or what horse should I keep?" The
various breeds of fowls hnve been
brought up to certain perfection to
meet the variaug, eouliti.or: how
much is due to accident or dexlgn we
will not now d incus?, but we do find
varieties fitted to different circum
stances and uses. For instance, n man
who wants to raise fowls to kill for
market would not think of Hamburg?,
nor of the Cochins for soarket epjjs.
A large claH of poultry keepers are
those who live in Bmali towns, or sub
urbs of large ones, who wish to enjoy
the pleasures of poultry society, and
to have a few fr.eah laid eggs daily ;
this can be done with a few birds
which would consume the pcraps from
the house with profit. To suit such
conditions the Brahmas or Cochins
axe highly fitted, being very quiet,
4jntle dispositions. If well fed they
will be contented in a very small
space, lay well through the winter,
and are good for the table at any time
If in good condition; if not fat, they
can be made so in very short time, as
no fowlB take on fat so readily. They
require but litte fencing to keep them
in ; 2 feet high is sufficient. There are
other fowls that will bear confinement
tolerably well. Some are very hand
somesuch as the Hamburg Spanish,
and Polands, Leghorns and Plymouth
Hocks require a little more liberty.
Those that require still more liberty
or larger space are Games, Houdans.
all other Frenob breeds, and Dorkings.
Here let me say of all fowls, space or
care is the secret of health ; that Is,
the less space the more oare. When
kept with full liberty, as on a farm,
little care is required with adult fowls
in summer ; but as soon as their liber
ty Is curtailed, more change of food
and cleanliness must be given. For
a farm same of the best fowls for, mar
ket are the Houdans, Dorkings and
2'lymouths, all large, Bpuare-bodied
birds. The two former are far-famed
frir tViA flno t?iiTni dnrl Hol'nota flocli
they breed large, early Spring chick
ens when crossed with light Brahma
hens. For egg for market, the Leg
horns still hold their own.,, both In
quantity, quality and size, all three
considered together. After keeping
an equal number of white and brown
in a house partitioned in the middle,
wtb a run at each end for each varie
ty, giving them all the same attention
the brown proved slightly more pro
lificthan the white, during the spring
months, and In hardiness and consti
tution the chicks of the brown were
much the strongest. The circumstan
ces were as good as could be
wllh both breeds. Pullets-- of each
were procured from one party, and
the cockerels from others, of the fin
est Btrains, and the brown came out
ahead. Rural New Yorker.
Sipthcria.
Dlptheriais a disease which springs
from the growth of a real fungus on
some of the mucous surfaces of the
system, more generally of the throat.
It may be spread by contagion of the
mucous surfaoe of a diseased with
those of a healthy person, as in kisa
Ing, and is to a limited degree-epidem-jc.
From the local parts affected, it
spreads to the whole body, affecting
the muscular and nervous systems,
vitiating the'.Jymph and nutrient flu
ids, and producing paralysis. As
' soon as the vacterium or fungus ap
pears in white patches on the throat,
it should no more be neglected than a
,- bleeding gash, or a broken arm, and
there is almost as little need-of a fatal
termination of oue incident as of the
other. It has been found by actual
experiment, both In and out of the hu
man system, that this vacterium ib
killed by several drugs, the safest and
most certain of whioh Is chlorine wa
ter. This wash is harmless, even
when swallowed, and is pretty certain
to arrest the disease. A well known
physician in this city, who has pur
' -sued this treatment for fifteen years,
. has found it effective almost without
exception, and has in that period of
ten broke up the disease in localities
.. where it had raged violently, and de
fled treatment. Prior to its use, he
. los't three cases out of six, but has
since used it with soarcely a, failure,
during the above mentioned period.
The recent great cyolopedia of Zien
misen on the practice of medicine,
gives the highest place to this method
; of treatment. To keep the patient
well housed, and warm, with addi
tional flannel clothing, and to keep
the system well nourished, and the
bowelB open, are matters often neg
leoted, but, with care in these matters,
and early application of the remedies
above suggested, tb'ere is no need of
the disease proceeding to a fatal ter
mination, or even to the debilitating
illnesB, and painful cauterization
which go together in its later -stages.
Springfield Republican.
Keep Straight Ahead.
Pay no attention, to slanders and
gossip-moDgers. Keep straight on In
your course, and let their backbiting
. die the death of neglect. What is the
use of lying awake at nights brooding
over the remark of some false friend,
'that runs through your brain like
lightning? Whatls the use of get
ting into & worry and fret over gossip
that has been set afloat to your dis-
' ad vantage, by some meddlesome busy
body who has more time than charac
ter? The things cannot possibly In
jure you unless, indeed, you take no
tice of them, and in combating them
give them standing and character. If
what Is said about you la true, set
yourself right; if it Ib false, let it go
for what It wIlHetob. If a bee sting
yon, would you go to the hive to de
stroy it? Would not a thousand come
upon you ? It is wisdom to say little
respecting the Inurles yon have re
ceived. We are generally losers in
the one if we stop to refute all the baok
biting and .gossiping we may hear by
ths way. Tbey are annoying, it Is
true, but not dangerous, so long bb we
do not stop to expostulate and scold
Our characters are formed and sustain
ed by ourselves, by our own actions
and purposes, and not by others. Let
us always bear in mind that "calum
niators may usually be trusted to
time and the slow but steady justice
of publioopiuion."
Hanging Baskets.
There U nothing more beautiful
among floral ornaments for winter,
than a well-filled ami cared for hang
ing basket, audi as many have been
accustomed to seeing only miserably
filled and more miserably cared for.
Such persons cannot be blamed for
not having any particular liking for
them, for the really beautiful "hang
ing garden," as It might be called, is?
unknown to them.
A great many suppose a hanging
basket is merely a niaM, round re
ceptacle of some kind, filled with a
few common climbera and drooping
plants. These may be made quite
pretty, but the finest style of hanging
basket or garden, is made about as
long as the window is wide, and about
a foot wide, to be suspended so as to
be above the bottom sash. Any rougli
box of the above dimensions, made of
half inch boards, about five Inches
deep, and coverd with pieces of birch
bark, nicely tacked on the sides and
bottom, makes a very tasty and pretty
appearance whed filled with plants.
The soil in a hang ng basket need not
he very rioh, as a rank growth Is not
desirable, for the rich plants would
soon outgrow their proper space; eoil
composed of rotten sods leaf mould
and a liberal dressing or sand Is the
bett.
For climbing and drooping plants
select those of a claan healthy growth ;
for climbing nothing excelH the Ger
man ivy, ijtapomea, mortonii, Tropte
olom, lbhianum, coboea scandea,
sweet potato or Japan variegated,
honeysuckle, and for drooping the ly
simaohia numuiaria.Baxifrugas linaria
(coliseum ivy,), tradescantias, (espec
ially the newer variety t. acquatica)
vlncas, micania scandens, polygonum
scandens, Fedums, lobelias, crassula
and ivies are! excellent and of clear
and rapid growth.
For upright growth, without sup
port, the varieties of dwarf germani
uuriB, the begonias, coleus, achyran
thes, cuphea, drartena, ferns, centau
ries, cyclamen, nnrembergia, petu
nias, peristrophe augustifolium and
heliotropes are all good, aa-i the list
might be made much longer aud in
clude many other excellent kinds but
the above will be sufficient to make
a good selection from. Do not under
take to put in too many plants as it
causes confusion and crowding, caus
ing them to drop their foliage and look
"so forlorn.1
A basket of Blze named may hold
to advantage germanium orticulatum,
germanium Jean Sisley, silver germa
nium Mr. of Snow, trl-color germani
um Mrs. Pollock, dracajna terminalis,
for centre, with a centaurea, gymno
carpa on either aidsi two nurembergia
(n. frutescens.) with lobelia, caelestl
db or gracilis, and interspersed with
linaria, cyinhnlaria for drooping, and
Ivies for climbing plants, making a
very handsome and attractive orna
ment, and if kept in good health,
aud well watered will last without re
newing for a whole season. Cor. Our

Some Western- Ranchmen.
During my trip hereabout, I have
visited the ranches of several New
York, Boston and Philadelphia boys,
who have left home luxury to become
ranchmen, and who are making mon
ey rapidly in the growth of cattle and
Bheep. Among those who have ex
changed the comforts of the east for
this life of adventureand exoitement
are Professor Clarence King ; Charles
Motley, s nephew of the dead histori
an ; L. G. Briggs, son of Richard
Briggs, the Boston merohant; Wil
bur Raymond, who graduated from
Wesleyan University, class of 1874;
Galusha A. Grow, Jr. a nephew of
Sidney Dillon, and many others
whose names I might mention. Clar
ence King Bays the only true way to
live in this world is to raise stock on
the Laramie plains during the
summer months apd spend your win
ters alternately in Now York, London
and Paris. There is facination about
this wild, roving, adventurous, inde
pendent life of a ranchmen, which I
can readily understand captivates
young men of birth and education es
pecially when there is money In the
business. "When I am my own mas
ter I am not tied down and can make
five times as much money as I could
at any business in Pennsylvania, it is
not surprising," Bald Mr. Grow, to me
"that I should enjoy this life." Ma
ny of the ranch houses a few miles
away from here are made of old worn
out rail ties, when new were cut in
the Medicine Bow and other neigh
boring ranges of mountains, and float
ed down in the Laramie and other
streams to the railroad track.
A man in Kansas who was too mean
to advertise land he wanted to sell,
put up a written notloeln one of the
hotels the other day. A man who
wanted to buy a small farm was re
ferred to the written notice, when he
replied, "I can't buy land at a fair
price from any man who does his ad
vertising in that way. He would
steal the fence, the pumphandle and
barn-doors before he gave up posses
sion."

FOR THE HOUSEHOLD.
A Remedy fob Cataurh. Dry
ami powder mullen leaves, as fine as
you would powder sage; then mnoke
as you would tobacco, letting the
smoke escape through the nostrils in
stead of the mouth. This is one of the
best remedies for catarrh in the head.
It has entirely cured a case- of over
twenty years' standing, when every
other remedy heard of failed to do so.
It may require a little practice to let
tiie smoke escape through the nostrils.
Mullen will be stronger If gathered
before the frost injures it, but will an
swer even if dug from under the snow.
It will also be found an excellent rem
edy for cold in the head.
Canceb. Cure. An old Ind'an doc
tor In Oregon, pronounces this a sure
cure:
bruise
Take common wood rioriel,
in brass, spread it in the
form of a poultice, and apply as long
as the patient can bear ; then apply
bread and milk poultice until the pa
tient can bear the wood sorrel again ;
continue this until the cancer is
drawn out by the roots.
Stramonium, known also as James
town (corrupted into jimson) weed, is
an effeotive remedy for snake bites,
and will cure them even some days
after they are inflicted. The weed
should be applied in the form of a
poultice. In the absence of any oth
er remedy, cauterizing the part with
a live coal is good especially for hors
es and cattle.
Another Big Wheat Story
The Vanceburg (Ky.) Courier has
seen a head of African wheat in bloom
that is fourteen incites long and look
ed as If it would have made a pint of
grain. It grows ten feet hifch, pro
duces two crops from oue stalk, and
will yield one hundred and fifty bush
els to the acre. The Courier thinks
It will revolutionize the wheat pro
ductof this country.
Centennial Biscuit. Make good
corn mush, just as if you were going
to eat it with milk. When it Is luke
warm, take a quart of It, work in flour
enough to make a stiff dough, make
into biscuit, put in your bake pan.and
set in a warm place over night ; bake
In a very hot oven, and yon have the
best and sweetest biscuit you ever ate.
Eat while hot for breakfast.
Wild- Crab apple Jelly. Wash
the fruit, and with a sharp knife re
move the blossoms and stems ; cover
with water and boil until soft; then
strain, add 1 pound of sugar to each
pint of juice; boil 15 or 20 minuteB.
This is very nice.
A subscriber asks : Will you please
give your readers a good recipe for
making sweet pickles of green toma
toes? The following is one- I have
tried for several years. It is good and
cheap : Slice one peck of green to
matoes; dissolve one pint of salt in
water enough to cover them ; let them
soak over night ; then rinse iu clear
water, and drain. Take one gallon of
cider vinegar, three pounds of brown
sugar, cloves, allspice, cinnamon to
your taste, and boil slowly for half an
hour.
