A picture is given here of the won derful Jersey cow , Signal's Lily Flagg , which has the championship record of SS SE SIGNAL'S LILY FLAGG. 1,047 pounds 9 ounces of butter in one year. The cut is reproduced from a drawing from life made by Mr. Webb Donnell , for the Country Gentleman. Gleanings. The farmer who buys bran and lin seed meal never makes a mistake , as those substances will enrich his ma nure heap , as well as add to the thrift of his stoclct When meal is fed to hogs , either as slop or dry , it is impossible to prevent waste ; if meal is worked out of the trough or the slop spilled , it is hardly possible to gather it again. If whole corn is fed the last grain is devoured. The food properties of corn are not changed by grinding it ; it is still corn , whether served as meal , mush or slop. When feeding hogs , grind only for the aged sows which have lost their teeth , and it is doubtful if they will pay the miller. Each field of the farm is fitted for some special use. Have due considera tion of the soil , the past rotation and fertilization and needs of the proposed crop. There should be no haphazard way. but some forethought , in adapting the crops to the laud. Low heads for trees are preferred by some , as they lessen the work of har vesting the crop and enable the grower to combat insects with advantage , but closer cultivation can be given when the trees are tall and the lower branches trimmed oft' . There is a positive scarcity of all [ kinds of good stock , especially of the ihigh grades , for the best and most pro fitable feeding , for the best home mar ket and export trade. Thus overpro duction of grain or live stock corrects It-H'lf by being unprofitable. It is best to keep wethers growing in stead of fattening them , unless they are intended for market soon. An allow ance of three pounds of clover hay a day for a sheep weighing 100 pounds , uling no grain , should be sufficient , but Ea > fatten rapidly give two pounds of Say and a pound of commeal daily. It requires about twenty pounds of tmlk to make a pound of butter , and fourteen pouacJo of milk to make a * of cheese. More labor and care e necessary to make cheese , however , Hit good cheese brings a high price , Specially when the parties making it pe known and reliable , and make a pecialty of a choice article. THE FARM AND HOM MATTERS OF INTERESTTO FARM ER AND HOUSEWIFE. Favorable Showing of the Souther Com Crop Value of Artificial Lake on the Farm Plan for IH ; ; m2 Goo-.l "NVcll Kotea. The Southern Farm Magazine , < Baltimore , has compiled from oflici : reports the total production of corn b States in the South in 1898 , showing gain , as compared with 1897 , of eve 114,000,000 bushels. In the South tli average price for corn runs from 4 cents to 50 cents or more , as estimate by the United States Agricultural D < partment. On the basis of 40 cent : this means an increase of nearly $50 000,000 in the corn crop of the Soutl as compared with last year. Compared with J897 , most of th Southern States show a small gain i acreage , running from 1 per cent , i Georgia to 8 per cent , in Texas , thoug Maryland , Tennessee and Kentuck show a decreased acreage of from 2 t 5 per cent. The gain in the ayerag yield per acre was very onarked i nearly all Southern Stales except i Georgia , in which there was a declin in the average of two bushels pc acre. The total crop by States , as con piled by the Southern Farm Magazin from advance government reports , an as compared with 1897 , was as follow * 1897. 1898. States.

Artificial I-.akes on Farms , We have noticed in some parts of liii fiois a number of small artificial lakei constructed in the pastures whre the soil is suitable. Recently we saw noi less than half a dozen of these on a sin gle iarge farm. So far as we could e" . they supplied the only water available tor the stock , and the latter not only drank t'.ie water , but bathed in it. There was no outlet , and the supply was gath ered mostly from the rains. The result of suvi conditions is that'the water be comes stagnant and foul. Water weeds and water life multiply rapidly , and the possibilities of disease are greatly increased. It would be better to build fewov artificial ponds , and have thorn .iiM-e sanitary in construction. The desideratum is to produce a pond in which there will be a current of water. In such farms as we refer to it will be found impossible to produce such ponds without going outside of the natural resources of the pasture. In many townships there are no brooks that run throughout the year. The de pendence in such cases must be placed in a windmill , and this is the reason why fewer and better ponds should be constructed. A windmill will not give much of a stream , it is true , but it will ! > e enough to prevent the water from jecoming entirely stagnant. It will take some study to make the ivater run through the whole poud , but : his can be accomplished by placing > btructious in the way or the current , continually deflecting it. Where there ire low swales it will not require much if a lift to got the water to the top of he ground. This will increase the imount of water that can be pumped , f gravel and sand be near and pleiiti- ul , it might be advisable to use some > f it for the bottom and sides , as tfcat rould probably have some influence en : eeping down the growth of slime in hu ponds. It would be also well to uggest that the hogs be not allowed to ivid the possession of tin's pond with he other stock. The hogs seem to do lore than any other animals to keep uch places in an unwholesome state. lay maker. is : a Well. 1 submit the following plan for dig- ing a good well. Dip six feet deep in 10 usual manner and wall with stone , tying them in mortar made of hydrau- c cement and sand. Continue the ex- ivatiou six feet further , making this lie thirty-two inches in diameter. Put 11 a coat of this cement about one inch rick and connect it with the stone all. Leave the lower three feet 1111- miented. Excavate three feet "more id then cement to within three feet of le bottom as before , and continue un- l the water is reached. If this work properly done , a first-class well will > the result. The water will be as free om drainage as the driven well , angle oriu tight , if you please. , * Objection ay be raised that a well of this kind .nnot be put down through quick- nd or other loose digging. Some four- en years ago a pioneer friend had no ell on account of the absence of stone for v.'alling. I proposed the above plai except the upper six feet of wall wa made of grout. At fifteen feet fine san was struck , and the excavator , w'l ' was a miner , said that it was unsafe t go further. I suggested a whitewas made of cement , which was applie and held the sand secure ! } ' until eac three feet was finished , and so on fort feet deep to water. Here was geuuin quicksand. A tube was made of 2x-i sharpened on the inside lower end , an lowered four feet into the water , an the well has been apparently ine > haustible ever since. It was mad twelve years ago , and several hav been put down since , one over fifty feel and have been perfectly successful , examined the first well about a yea ago , and as far as I could discern i was in as good condition as when firs made. American Agriculturist. How to Clean a New Churn. Never should a churn be employe * for making butter until it has bee ] soaked several days. Furthermore , i it is perfectly tight when the soakin ] occurs , the bolts ought to be loosenei more or less , so as to prevent it fron warping and getting out of shape , say Ohio Farmer. Some manufacturer stencil this instruction right on th churn. Despite this , however , many ar the butter-makers who neglect the pre caution. What are the results ? Gener ally the butter Is not good , it bavin ; for the first few churniugs a decided woody taste. Many are the ways recommended fo soaking a new churn , but far will on < go to find anything that equals wate ; for absorbing most flavors , and es"fte chilly if it is used in the following man ner : Have it clear and cold for the firs twenty-four hours , but change it tw < or three times ; next , churn for an houi with a solution of some weak alkal ( powdered lye or lime ) , then rinse witl boiling hot water , and if couvenicn soak for twenty-four hours longer will clean flavored buttermilk or sour skim med milk , repeating thi.-s should it seen necessary. This procos < over , wash th * churn as usual that is , by first rins'ujj it with cold water , then churn5us foi ten minutes with that which is boiling hot , and if steam is available steaming the implement sufficiently to make il warm enough to dry itself. Thus it is that alinost any new churn may be ren dered absolutely clean and sweet. T ice nn Poultry. In a letter from our veteran friei .Tames J. 17. Gregory , of Marblehead , he avows his belief that insufficient feeding is the reason why poultry be come troubled with lice. In his many years' experience with fowls he fllis never but once had occasion to use any of the popular vermin destroyers. This is good testimony to the doctrine that lice never breed except where there have recently been lice to breed from. In other words , the notion of spontaneous generation is a humbug. U is undoubtedly true , also , that lice will not live ou fat poultry. But there are times , as when hens of the brood ing varieties are determined to sit , and then the steadiness with which the lien will keep to her nest will make her thin in flesh , no matter how well fed she may be. Mr. Gregory probably remftn- bers the story of the anxious mother whose son had run away. "Dear John , come home. You know that a rolling stone gathers no moss. " The son wrdte back : "Dear mother , I don't want any moss. You must remember that a sit ting hen never gets fat. " So there is use sometimes for remedies for hen me , as they cannot always be prevented by good feeding. American Cultivator. Root Frowning : . ' It is difficult to get people to under stand , " says Meehan's Monthly , " "that trees can die from root drowning. A Boston correspondent refers to two largehorsechestnuts which were moved last spring with the greatest skill , but they died. In the fall an examination was made , and the holes found to be full of water within one foot of the surface of the ground. The holes we're really flower pots , without the neces sary holes in the bottom to allow the water to escape. There can be no bet ter lesson iu gardening than to be con tinually remembering why it is neces sary to have a hole in a flower pot. " Poultry Pointers. Never give fowls medicines in metal lic vessels. Chemical combinations might be injurious. Ducks and geese should never be kept with chickens. They are sure to breed disease in the flock. The earlier hens shed their old coats the sooner they will begin to make a winter egg record. The Poultry Messenger advises put ting away some second growth clover .or feding hens in winter. Freedom from lice and plenty of ange will make the growing chicks 'hump" themselves these days. The sooner you are rid of the old ; tock , except those intended for next ; easons ? breeders , the better. A writer declares that while old fowls an stand corn meal and bran , they lever should be fed to chicks. Be careful how the new grain is fed. t is liable to produce cases of what you vill probably call cholera. Pure-bred fowls first , last and all the ime. The breed does not matter so nuch , provided you are satisfied with t. Give as much of a variety as possible. Toung chicks soon tire of the best of eed if confined to it for any length of ime. Hens that are permitted to range all ummer will not lay as many eggs as laose in reasonable confinement and roperly fed. That soft feed that stands over from lorning till night is not just the thing sr the next feed. It won't hurt the ogs ; however. The Hasia of State Aid. Two highways should bo built am maintained by those who live alon : them is an ancient doctrine , but ai unjust one. Fifty years ago Macaule ; described how unfairly the practici operated in the Seventeenth Century how toll roads succeeded it and , final ly , free turnpikes. But in this coimtr ; we have only recently * begun to sei its injustice , and to realize that tin relatively sparsely settled country with its comparatively small amoun of taxable property , cannot equitably shoulder the burden of constructing and maintaining the major part of thi h.'ghways of the country for the usi of everybody. This subject is treated by A. B Choate , of the L. A. W. Highway Committee , in circular No. 31 of tlx Government Office of Road Inquiry on "State Aid. " "After years of agl tation , " he says , "and condemnatioi of the farmers for failure to built good country roads , the agitators hav < discovered that they have been try ing to work an injustice upon tin farmers. The mistake was , not in de manding good roads , but in asking th < farmers to build good country road : without taxing city property to helj pay for them. " Equality of taxation is a familial principle , yet nothing could be more unequal than to tax farm property alone for the construction of roads which ultimately benefit the entire community. In the newer states the taxable property is more nearly equal ly divided between town and country but , in the older ones , the preponder ance is greatly in towns and cities , k New York the proportion being aboul six to one. "The bearing which this fact has1 says Mr. Choate , "upon the question of State Aid for building country wagon gen roads is very apparent , for , if the farmers are required to pay taxes on their proportionately very small amount of property , to improve the long stretches of country roads , while the city people pay only enough taxes on their great wealth to improve the roads- within the city limits , it will be necessary that the road taxes levied upon the farm property shall be very much heavier in proportion to the value of that property than the road taxes upon city property , and the prin ciple of equal taxation will be vie lated. * * * "The business men in the cities have learned that it is to their interest to have better country roads. * * * The whole State is interested in the improvement of all the roads , and since the city people are insisting that they shall be improved , it would be fair to levy a tax on city property as well as country property for the im provement of country roads. This is what is meant by State Aid. * * * The State does not undertake to con duct the country district schools , but it does say that , if any school district shall run a school of a certain char acter a certain number of months in the year , it will contribute to the ex pense. The State Aid proposition , then , is an application to building country roads , of the practice now in operation for running country schools. " Summing up the principal points , Ml' . Choate finds that : 1. All taxes should be equal. 2. Taxing farm property to improve all country roads , and city property to improve city roads only , results Jn unequal - equal taxation. 3. City people desire to have country roads improved ; equal and just taxa tion requires that they contribute to ward the expense. 4. State aid simply requires all ben- sfitcd property owners to contribute to the expense of road improvements that benefit them. 5. State aid for road-building is the same in principle as state aid for public ! schools. 0. State /id is not a new experiment u road-bi'llding , but has proved suc cessful in New Jersey , Massachusetts ind elsewhere. L. A. W. Bulletin. The Song oi the Angelus Bird. When traveling in the forests of Gui- ma and Paraguay , it is not uncommon o meet with a bird whose music great- v resembles that of an Angelus bell rhen heard from a distance , says a rriter in Great Thoughts. The Span- irds call this singular bird Campanero , r a bell-ringer , though it may still be lore appropriately designated as the Liigelus bir-1 , for , like the Ange/us ell. it is heard three times a day lorniug. noon and night. Its song , rhich defies all description , consists f sounds like the stroke of a bell , suc- eedingme another every two or three liuutes. so clearly and in such a re- Hinut manner that the listener , if a ti-auger. imagines himself to be near a liapel or Convent. But it turns out that ie forest is the chapel , and the bell is bird. OIIP writer ( Mr. Waterton ) j as declared that the bird tolls with so ! veet a note that Actaeon would stop I ' L mid-chase. Orpheus himself would t-op his lute to listen , while the clear ote can be heard at a distance of three j ilesl The beauty of the Angelus bird equal to his talent ; he is as large as jay , and as white as snow , beside be- ig graceful in form and swift in mo on. But the most curious ornament : the bird is the tuft of arched feath- s on its head ; this crest is conical in > rm and four inches in length. Cure Effected. The wise physician frequently finds necessary to "minister to a mind dis- ised" rather than 'to the body that merely sympathizes with it. A younjf woman who had gone from her horns in an inland village to visit friends It the great city for the first time in hei life , soon began to lose all appetite and grow thin and hollow-eyed. Her friends , fearing that she was go ing into a decline , called in a physician in spite of her protests , and asked him to prescribe for her. He asked a feA\ questions , noted her symptoms , gavt her malady a scientific name , and said , as he handed her a bottle of pellets : "It Avill be necessary , miss , first ol all , for you to leave the crowded city- The air here is not good for you. Have you friends in the country ? " "Why , I live iu the country , doctor , " she replied. "Very good. Return , then , to your home , engage in light exercise , with frequent walks in the open air , and take five of these pellets every morn ing before breakfast. " She returned to her village home , ob served the doctor's directions faithful ly , paying particular attention to tak ing the medicine , and was well in less than a week. Meeting the family physician one day- it occurred to her to tell him her ex perience. He listened to her , asked to see the pellets , tasted them , and find ing them to be merely sugar , unmedi cated , said : "What did your city doctor tell you was your ailment ? " "He said it was nostalgia. ' "H'mph ! Do you know what nos. talgia means ? " "No , sir. " "It means homesickness. " Youth's Companion. The Clergyman's .Lease. One of the most popular preachers in London , from 1832 to 1879 , was Dr. John Cummins , a Scotch Presbyterian. His celebrity was chiefly due to his sermons on prophecy , wherein he in terpreted the signs of the times , the millennial rest , the Last Trumpet , and the Seventh Vial. , Shortly after the publication of a series of sermons , in which the preach er had anuot'.uced that within a few years the present order of things would" end , the poet Tennyson was dining , with a friend at a London tavern. In the course of the conversation the poet said : "Doctor dimming , although he has prophesied the end of the world in ten years , has just taken a lease of the house he lives in for twenty-one years. " "Is that true , sir ? " exclaimed a wait er , rushing forward , napkin on arm. "You have comforted me wonderfully , sir. I am a family man , and I didn't see the use of my being a waiter if the world was to end so soon. " Doctor Gumming was a canny Scot , lie knew how to drive a good bargain , and had unbounded confidence in his drawing power as a preacher. When he became pastor of the London church , it had run down into a poor , weak , palsy-stricken thing. The confident young Scotchman agreed to take the pew-rents for his salary , and to re main satisfied with the same. The trustees consented there was an acre of unfilled pews to discover In a year or two that their pastor was re ceiving the largest salary of any dis senting clergyman in London. Youth' * Companion. Ex-Colonials. During the progress of the Queen's Jubilee the colonial princes , officers and premiers attracted , next to the royal lady herself , the attention of the pub lic. Wherever they appeared they were received with cheers and especial honors. r _ On on occasion the streets were pack ed with spectators watching the guests depart from some royal function at Buckingham palace. The crowd re fused to move except when some of the Indian rajahs or Australian officers ap peared , when a way was speedily open ed for them. A carriage presently came out of the ; ates in which were three or four Americans who had been guests in the palace. Finding that the way was completely blocked , one young fellow imong them shouted : "Let us pass ! We , too , are colonials. " The crowd divided , and as the car- iage entered the opening , he added : "We are the colonials who wouldn't et our mother spank us. " The crowd caught the joke , and relied - ) lied with laughter and applause. iTouth's Companion. Soeinjj the Sights. Even in these days of liberal educa- ion , young women sometimes show low confused are the ideas shut up in heir heads. Illustrative of this is the ia5ve blunder which Edmondo de imicis recounts in his story of a voy- ge from Genoa to Buenos Ayres : The captain of the steamer which umbered the charming young ? > lun- erer among its passengers , met her ne morning and said : "Signorina , we cross the Tropic of lancer to-day. " "Oh. indeed ! " she cried with enthusf- sm. "Then we shall see soiuethin" at sst. " Scandalous. Mrs. Witchorly They say Mrs. > ickson has recently become very eonouiical.
