their skins soft as velvet from anoint

that at once impresses the visitor is
the varied and striking manner in
which both men and women the for

Here a man is seen whose pate seems
covered with a thick coating of white
wash ; there another , whose locks , ra
diating in every direction from his
skull as if they were electrified , could
hardly be inserted in a bushel basket.
The former state is but a preliminary
to the second. The natives plaster
their hair with a kind of paste made
of powdered coral mixed with water ,
which , after hardening and then being
broken off , stiffens the hair and bleach
es it from its natural black to odd
shades of red and dull yellow thus
producing strange effects in combina

Ravages of the Brown-Tail Stoth.
The ravages of the brown-tail moth
have become so great in different parts
of the country that some concerted ef
fort should be made to exterminate the
pest. The eggs of the female are laid
on the leaves of the tree , and are
hatched In midsummer , and. the pest
of the moth in the caterpillar state be
gins its ravages on the tender foliage.
On the approach of winter the cater
pillars construct heavy webs , in which

they live until spring , when they come
out to feast on the buds , blossoms and
leaves. It Is at this season of the
year , and later , while the trees are de
void of foliage that the main work to
exterminate them must be done.
While the moth is in winter quar
ters he and she can be readily reached.
Obtain a pruning shears mounted on a
long handle and operated by awire in
the hands , go through the trees of the
orchard and anywhere on the grounds
and cut off the twigs on which the
mass of web hangs. I/iy them in piles
carefully , then gather them , and , after
taking them out of the orchard , burn
them. Only in this way can one be
certain of their destruction. The plan
of fastening a bunch of cotton waste
to a pole , setting fire to it and holding
the lighted torch to the web until it is
consumed is also a good one. Better
get at this work during the winter and
do it thoroughly.
The illustration will give the reader
some idea of this pest. The female
moth is shown , as well as the cater
pillar , and also a twig of a tree show
ing the web attached. As this latter
has been accurately drawn it will not
be difficult to identify the web of the
brown-tail moth. Indianapolis News.
Practical Poultry llouso Idea.
The cut shows the result of mature
experience in housing fowls. This
house has a small roosting and laying
room and one very small window. This
insures a warm roosting place in win
ter ( a slat outside door can be used in
summer ) and a dark place for laying ,
which gives an ideal condition. In
stead of an open shed scratching room
( which will fill with snow in a North
ern climate ) , a large room with two
large sliding windows is provided.
Wire netting can be placed over these
to keep the fowls in and the windows
can be opened to any width , permitted
by the prevailing weather conditions.
This gives the benefits of the open
scratching shed plan without its de
cided disadvantages. The nests should
have closed ( hinged ) fronts and should

be entered from the rear , which will
keep them very dark. For a farm poul
try-house , this design leaves nothing
to be desired.
Cowpeas for the Soil. " -
The plan of sowing cowpeas to oc
cupy the soil after harvesting fall
wheat or oats is as good now as ever ,
says Rural New Yorker. With a fa
vorable season the cowpeas make a
large growth and can be plowed under
in time for another crop of grain or
grass seeding. The soil is left in much
better shape than it would be if left in
stubble and weeds. The trouble about
the plan this year is the difficulty in
obtaining cowpea seed. There seems
to be little if any left in the country.
"We are thinking of using white beans
In place of the peas.
Clearing Up Brush Land.
The use of Angora goats in clear
ing up the cut over lands in northern
Michigan has been tried now for sev
eral years and apparently with satis
factory results to those who have in
vested in them. The lauds have been
lumbered , the pine cut out and then
'left ' to grow up Into brush. Upon
these lands the Angora has proved a
very efficient aid in clearing them of
brush and. putting them in shape for
cultivation or to grow Into grass.
Neither sheep nor cattle would do this
work as well as the Angora.
Covcrinpr the Silo.
Various ways have been tried of
covering the silage after the silo was
filled to prevent the spoiling of the
silage on top , but it has > been found
that nothing Is better or less expen-
riv than to put on water enough to ]
thoroughly wet the top of the silage
and have enough so that It runs down
between the silage and the sides of
the silo. Many avoid all loss from
damage on top by beginning to feed
immediately after filling , thus giving
it no time to damage. The feeding
should always be done from the top ,
taking about two inches from the en
tire top each day. If the feeding is
done too slowly , and part of the sur
face is left exposed to the air for two
or three or more days , then the stock
will have partially damaged silage all
the time. C. P. Goodrich before Wis *
cousin Farmers' Institute.
Pood for the Stock.
Those who have tested the use o ?
cooked and uncooked foods for stock ,
more particularly for swine , agree that
the uncooked foods are by far the most
digestible. This opinion would delight
the vegetarians who urge uncooked
fruits and vegetables as being more
wholesome. Yet there are two sides to
the story as usual. There seems to be
no denying the value of the uncooked
food , with animals at any rate , but we
all know that a quantity of raw fruits
and vegetables eaten by humans during
the summer is apt to create a disturb
ance of the digestive organs. Not al
ways does it cause a looseness of the
bowels , but acidity of the stomach ,
which is very painful. Is it not fair to
assume that if uncooked food has this
effect on the human stomach that it
must have some bad effect on the stom
ach of the farm animal.
This may be a little far-fetched , but
experience has taught the writer that ,
without exception , one warm meal u
clay during the winter is beneficial to
the animals. Even our horses have a
warm bran mash , and it has been well-
cooked , too. The poultry have the
warm cooked mash and the hot corn
at night every other day , and thrive
on it. This being our experience , our
argument is that animals should have
cooked food occasionally , but that
most of their meals should consist of
food not cooked.
Helps Handling HORS.
For a catching yard or pen , instead
of having regular rectangular shape ,
have at one corner a sharp triangular
extension , as shown in the cut. Into
this extension the hogs will rush , when
they may be easily caught.
For loading hogs , back the wagon ,
with cage on , up to the pen fence , dig
under the hind wheels a few inches to
bring the rear end and upper side of
the wagon bed even with some plank
or rail of the pen fence. Cut out this
plank or rail , leaving a space large
enough for your largest bog to pass
through. Place an inclined iloor of
YARD rOK LOADING HOGS.
plank from thegromiir of the pen to
the lower side of the wagon opening ,
as shown by the cut , up which to drive
the hogs. Then scatter a little corn
on the floor of the incline and also on
the floor of the wagon , start the hogs
and they will go up and in. No fuss ,
no torn or soiled clothes and a lot of
quiet hogs. II. T. Vose , in Farm and
Home.
Agriculture in Japan.
A report prepared by the American
Consul-General at Yokohama gives
some particulars as to agriculture in
Japan. He states that only li.995,272
acres , or 15.7 per cent , of the total area
of the country , exclusive- Formosa ,
are iu arable cultivation. About oo
per cent of the agricultural families
cultivate less than two acres each ; 30
per cent , two acres to less than three
and three-fourth acres , and 15 per cent ,
three and three-fourths acros to more.
It is not clear whether the small hold
ers have grass land in addition to their
arable land. As to how families can
be supported on such minute farms , it
is pointed out that the Japanese stand
ard of living is comparatively low ;
that the small farmer usually earns
wages apart from his land , or engages
in some such industry as silk-produc
ing or spinning ; that he cultivates and
manures his land very thoroughly ; and
that he often raises two or more crops
In a season on the same land. In the
warmer pa.rts of Japan , it is stated ,
barley , Indigo , beans and rape are
grown in succession on one piece of
land in twelve mouths.
How JMuch Pork to Acre ?
It may be unusual to estimate the
amount of pork that can be produced
from an acre of certain crops , but it is
claimed that an acre of land in clover
will produce SOO pounds of pork ; peas ,
375 pounds ; corn , 050 potinus ; oats ,
320 pounds : barley , 420 pounds , and
wheat 225 pounds.
The value of each crop on one acre ,
when converted Into pork , Is as fol
lows : Clover , § 32 ; corn , ? 22.-10 ; peas ,
$15 ; barley , ? IO.SO ; oats , $13.20 , and
wheat 0 , estimating the pork at 4 cents
per pound.
Of course something depends on the
prices ruling for the crops. The
amount of produce per acre required
to give the pork mentioned on an acre
is 900 pounds of wheat , 1,080 pounds
of barley , 1,320 pounds of oats , 2,240
pounds of corn , 1,500 pounds of peas ,
and 12,000 pounds of green clover.
In Fly Tinic.
Among the various anti-switch de
vices , one of the latest is that of a
Maine farmer's boy , who places an old
bicycle tire over the cow's back so
that it holds the tail closely enough to
prevent any vigorous activity. A tem
porary blanket of old bagging is an
other good tall restralner which keeps
away the flies besides , and these en
