One of the most difficult things to cure for fodder is the green corn-stalk. (Ireat quantities of good winter feed aru often lost by early fro.st, and the Ameri can Cultivator suggests as a remedy drying the stalks on a platform of rail or loose boards, laid so as to allow a current of air tinder the stack, with a column of barrels built up through the middle to give additional ventilation. The time is coming when it wili pay to plant varieties of corn which are especially rich in starch for the manu facturers or in nutritive elements fol the feeders.

Suggest Ion for Thoso "Wlio K ; Plant in tin; House During Winter. To those who intend keeping plant:' in windows in the house, during winter. J would say that fo get plenty of blos soms it is necessary to have the not well filled with roots. When potting plants, the smaller the pots they can be put into the better they do gen erally. In" lifting plants it is often the prac tice to reduce the ball of earth Ffted with the plant by crumbling the soil around the sides. This destroys the roots to such an extent that the. feeding portion of them is completely muti lated, and, as a consequence, fresh rootlets have to start out all over the leading roots before any food can be supplied to support the evaporation rapidly going on from the leaves and stem. especially in every sueer.leat growing kinds. The main secrc in lifting 'plants from the ground, and having them do well afterward, ); by preventing them from wilting too much. This can only be done by pre serving all the roots possible and reduc ing tfie leaf surface to correspond. 3Ianv people ask me how 1 am going to accomplish this with such kinds :is chrysanthemums, which have their flower buds all formed on the points of the shoots, without destroying the. flowers. lv simply shaking the soil gently from the roots, instead of break ing it off. roots and all. If the soil is of a loose nature, and neither wet nor dry, it is cleaned without injuring them much. When potting, gently and evenly spread the roois with the soil, press tirmlv and thoroughly water. To re move the superabundant leaf-surface, "take off a good many of the large .leaves near the base of the stems, am: there is no need for breaking any of the shoots at all. With geraniums anc chrysanthemums this is most applicable, as to cut the shoots back much, of those kinds wanted for winter flow ering, is to take the principal part of them away. All Ihe buds on geraniums, when lifted, will open beautifully in the house. As the culture of ihe chrysanthemum has come in fashion again, eveiy one will be wing with his neighbors as to who shall have the best ones. As they soon root after lifting, do not allow them to suffer fcom want of v.-gter. or the flowers will be apt to opeu imper fectly. Keep them light, and coal, and if extra flowers are wanted, do not al low too many buds to rem:tin on the plants judiciously thin them out. "When pansies, daisies and forget-me-nots are to be wintered over, to secure early spring llowering. keep exroscd as long in the season as possible: a li'tlc froM; will not hurt them: if kept too tlose during the early winter, they are apt to get a soft growth and be more susceptible to the frost than wLen well hardened and kept growing eool as long as possible.

MUton, the Country Gcntltinsn PREVAILING FASHIONS. Information About the Latrat 1'opnUr Style. Satin armure is the favorite material for evening dresses. Light silk jen-eys for evening wear have a velvet plastron embroidered with silk and gold. The newest thing in brass ash-receivers for smokers' use, is a concave crescent, with the profile of the man in moon forming the inner edge. Corduroy and ribbed materials of all sorts are in favor, while nonpareil and French poplin form charming combina tions. Neck mehings made of leather aro a novelty at leading ttores, brought out for the lirat time this season. Leather belts of all kinds as much used for children. The widest belt is considered the mo,t stylish. They will be worn by little boys over heavy cloth overcoats. StrinirsTf nearl beads are twisted in the hair for balls and parties. The effect is very preltv ami becoming to a high com lire. An exquisite opera cloak is of deep red velvet brocaded with lieur-de-li fig ure of dead gold color. This has :i .short back and long square front, and is trimmed with llounces of black lace, be tween which are rows of gold braid. The sleeves and collar are heavily braided and lini-hed witii lace. i'ale blue and pink velvet bows are used to loop up the white dresses of bridesmaids. With the blue velvet are carried bouquets of tea roses and forget-me-nots, and with the pink, inermet ro-es and stiphanotis. A new fancy in fa-hion is to wear white velvet collars ami turn-down cuU, on walking dre.-es of dark brown or blue woolen goods. The effect is very pretty. Pure, astrakhan and marabout feath ers, with chnile, trim velvet and non pareil with good effect. Velvet coitumes are very fashionable, and many of them are without trimming. Fir green is one of the most fashiona ble of the new colors. A dull shade of violet tinted with red is also a fashion able color. Some of the cloth dresses in these colors have a gold selvidge oa one side which is used for a trim ming. A new fur cloak fashionable in Lon don is called the ".Mary Anderson." It is of soft eal. lined with Oriental silk, and is made in a .-oil of cape shape with a fur boa sewed about the neck. A dainty little cloak for a child of four years is in inch-wide stripes of flan nel showing dark green, blue and deep Trine colors. It has three broad box plaits in the back and two in the front, a wide belt of crimson plush, a turn down collar and euff of the same, and large crimson plush button complete. The newest embroidered black nets show figures wrought in gold threads in such effective designs :is thisth'S, large roses or leaves, and these are u-.ed for plastrons and .skii't-fronLs on rich black tllV.SSCS. Dee place collars and cuffs are worn in preference to tho-e of embroidery for children. Plain linen collars in wide, round and square shapes are for every day use. A chain attachment has been invent ed to hold chopping bags together, which is very simple and inexpensive, of wonderful utility, keeping out pick pockets most effectively. If the bag is at all crowded it is very apt to spring open, but if ladies secure a clasp with chain attachment they will never find the bag hanging open, which is of fen the case, at the expense of the loss of the pocket book. A bright and showy bureau set has a a scarf of yellow satin, each end of which is embroidered with a spray of forget-me-nots in very fine chenille. The cushion is also of satin and decorated in like manner. Around the cushion is a full quilling of satin ribbon about two inches wide and at each corner is fas tened yellow silk pompons. Oneof Worth's dresses is called the Empire. The skirt is of ivory-colored satin brocaded with flowers, and cut with along train, the waist being the distinguishing feature. The sleeves and upper part are of fine white muslin, which in front is gathered close to the throat, and folds of satin envelope the figure from the shoulders to the waist. An exquisite dinner dress, and one of a large number prepared for a wedding trosseau. is of pale blue satin, the entire front ami sides draped with llounces of delicate lace through which are run twisted threads of gold. This filmy lace with its rich yellow threads produces a beautiful effect over the blue satin, while to add to its magnificence it is caught here and there with bunches of deep pink roses. The train is very long and plain, the basque cut low over the shoulder is without sleeves, and is trimmed with rich lace and clusters of roses. A handsome walking suit is of dark brown velvet heavily trimmed with sable fur. There is very little drapery, and a long, tight-fitting basque: and the suit is completed by a muff. hat. and a close fitting jacket of sable fur. Another street dress is a combination of dark blue cloth antf deep red velvet, also much trimmed? with fur. X. Y. Com mercial Advertiser. Important to Teachers. Two teachers of languages were dis cussing matters and things relative to their profession. Do your pupils pay up regularly on the first of each month?"' asked oneof them. No, they do not,' was the reply. I often have to wait for weeks and weeks before I get my pay, and some times 1 don't get it at all. You can't well dun the parents for the money.' ny uou l you no as i uo. ways get my money regularly." I al- llow do you manage it 31 It is very simple. For instance I am teaching a boy French, and on ' V first day of the month, his folks don't send the money for the lessons. In that event I give him the following sentences to translate and write out at" home: 1 have no money. The mouth is up. Hast thou got any money? Have not thy parents rot money? I need money very much. Why hast thou not brought themouey this mornmg? Did thy fath er not give thee any money?' That fetches them. Next morning, you bet, that boy brings the money." Texas Sitings. m m The old Schuyler mansion in Al bany, to be razed, was built in 1700 bv the wife of General Philip Schuyler, and was a marvel of grandeur in Its early days. Franklin, Lafayette, Aaron Burr and Rochambeau were among its guests. Here Burgoyne was held a prisoner aft er his surrender at Saratoga, and in 17SI a desperate effort was made by , Tories and Indians to capture General Schuyler. Gathering his family in an upper room he stood scige until relief came. Albany Journal. NEW GUINEA. Iter the Xatlra 8rrr Cam A Irpro Chief.

The natives always walk in singfe file, and the hunting procession wa a very long one. The meet was at a creek half way to the Laroge Kiver. This was the ren dezvous, where all rested and waited for a strong, .steady wind. The nets had gone on and were in portion. The master of ceremonies was a Koitapu Chief named Sivari. When I first knew Sivari. .some years ago, he was a line-looking man. agile, and act- ive; now lie is a pitiable object his toes and lingers eaten away by leprosy and his arms and legs in a dreadful state. He can hobble about on a stick, hut he cannot walk far. Two of his wives carried him by turn in a netted hammock on their backs, suspended by a band across the forehead. These are some of the honors which fall to the share of the wives of Xw Guinea. The right to carry their husbands to the hunting-field is one of the women's rights undisputed here. The old sinner, miserable object though he is, has hail six wives, some of them young and good-looking, recently annexed to his harem. Soon the wind began to whistle through the tree, and there was a gen eral stampede. The gniss w:is set fire to in many places and was oon crack ling, his-sing and blazing awav before the wind. The air was full of sparks, and a dense cloud of smoke rose above. The natives shouted, the dogs yelped, and poor, daxed wallabies rushed here and there, some escaping spears and dogs, but most of them falling. It re quires a good deal of practice to spear a wallaby going full speed. .Sometimes one would rush past with two or three spears hanging from him and a bevy of logs after him. Then' was a good deal of slaughter and some scores of wallaby carried in. One man was badly gored 1)3' a wild boar. It is only very plucky men who will face these. They carry a circle of stout cane, in which is lashed some strong cord, so as to form several large meshes. This is held so that the pig rushes in and gets mu.zled by it; then a man throws himself on the pig and grips him tight until he is dis patched. When they have tusks the hunter often gets very ugly wounds. The man we saw had a nasty hole plowed in his thigh by a short tusk. The pig, however, was overpowered and killed. Xew Guinea Cor.

I.adics AVIio II;ivo to I'mliiro S;ir-:ism raiiso They Happen to JJi Sensible Boston women have to endure an amount of sarcasm because they are more sensible than the New York women in the selection of their dresses, and because the majority usually look so downright dowdy in the streets. But let mo in justice to their lack of good taste say the women one meets in the shopping quarters come mostly from the distant suburbs or are out-and-out New Englanders, only in town for the day. They are not Bostonians at all, and thev wear gossamer cloaks when it shines, and. carry big shopping bags in their hands or a plaid shawl on their arms, as independent of worldly .'.corn as a wood-sawyer's clerk. If these people must continually be mis taken for our native citizens, it would be a good plan to send missionaries to the wilds of Methuen and Fitehburg to convert them to the ways demanded by cosmopolitan critics. It is said that Boston girls of the intellectual stamp could be" picked out of a crowd any where, that they are content to wear a hard, iev expression, thick boots and last year's bonnet, and where any other women pould be miserably out of their element, the push ahead with lofty unconcern and independence. All of which is undoubtedly true. et, in spite of the sneer, these girls are just as busy now about their dress makers and milliners as their most frivolous kind. I was waiting at a fashionable modiste's the other morning when two females walked into the reception-room where I sat, and in quired bluntly: '-Where's madame?' Of course. I stared and saiil I did not know. Then they sat down and waited live minutes, ten minutes, as I had for twenty previously. At length, after fidgeting and wondering and coughing, the spokeswoman again addressed me: "Does Madame always keep people waiting so long?' Yes.'' Well, Abby. T guess we must go. 1 have to speak "at Tremont Temple soon after three, and it's almost that how.'' And away the two went. leav ing me ignorant of what they could wish with" a dressmaker whose custom ers are of the ultra-fashionable order. When madame appeared I told her two guys from the back-woods had been wishing to interviw her, and they had gone now to attend a meet ing of some sort at Trcmout Temple. Whereat the little woman burst into an uproarious laugh, and when she could speak, said "dese ladies'' were her customers, and she was to make a dress to be worn at a wedding for one of them, and that neither lived in the hack-woods, but very near the Hub. Well, appearances are deceitful, for I would not have dreamed that they knew satin from flannel, or had ever pajd over live dollars for having a dress made in their whole lives. Ater all. women are very much alike, even if thev will naranguo temperance crowds. They do love pretty things, though they niay not become the pretty things when they get them. Albany (Ar.

Again, ferns enjoy shade, but it is quite erroneous to suppose that in a state of nature they grow in sunless spots, for some of the most delicate kinds are growing on the sunny side of mountain slopes, although some species do grow most luxuriously on a northern aspect. In the matter of heat, even with the strictly tropical kinds, culti vators usually err on the side of excess, the consequences of which aroweakh growth and a plague of thrips: for il may be taken for granted that when these insect pests abound, the atmos phere is too hot or too dry, or in all probability both, and the subject o! their attacks must at once be removed to a cooler temperature. European ferns generally are easy to cultivate, and yet theru are among their numbers some few species which are quite as difficult to grow creditably as air in the known world. Home Science. COARSE FODDER. IIor It May Ho ld Iteiiellcbilly to Slieop mid CnuK. A eorn'spondent proposes to huj stock to :it uj) his stnuv, corn-stalks-, bean and pea-straw, and clover Iiay, ami asks which will he niot profit able and make the best manure? Sheep will will make the most manure. If the cows are riving milk the manure will lo.-e the nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash earned oil" in the milk, lhil you can sell this nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash in the milk at a high price, and buy it at a comparatively low price in the form of hay, mill-feed, cotton seed cake, brewer's grains malt-sprouts, etc. Whether sheep or cows will be most profitable, all things considered, will depend on your conveniences for carrying on the work, or the kinds of coarse fodder, ami on the demand and price of milk at the farm, and what you propose to do with the cows after our fodder is exhausted. Furrow cows that are giving milk, can often be bought cheap'.' If fed lib erally they will give rich milk, and im prove in lles.li at the same time, and sell in the sprinir for considerably more than you paid for them. And the same is true of cows that are expected to calve in the winter. New milch cows in the winter, or early spring, are al ways wanted by the regular milkmen. We know men, who for years have made a regular business of buying cows in the fall, and feeding them all win terselling part to the butchers, and part to the milkmen. They make money and manure, and find cows more prolit able than sheep. Those who have had no experience, might do better by trying sheep. Sheep will do bet ter on straw than cows. Good corn stalks, cut before frost, and properly preserved, are excellent alike for cows and sheep, but they are probably fed to cows with more 'profit. And 'this is true of hay. The real profit in either case, especially where manure is wanted, comes from the extra grain, oil-cake, etc., fed in conjunction with coarse fodder. Straw and stalks alone make poor manure. We gain nothing by passim: straw through a sheep or cow. Jt is straw still. We must feed bran, oil-cake, malt-sprouts, or grain anil clover hay in addition to the corn fodder, if we want to fatten the sheep, rroduce milk and make rich mauure. We need not sav that less labor is re quired to take care of the sheep. II you are in the country where there is little demand for milk, keep sheep; if near city or village where there are plenty of dogs, keep cows. American Agriculturist. Female Marksmanship.
