Clevelaaa Pastor Think St. Paal Kaew ffot Ml Heads-ear. Rev. Dr. Carroll ot the fashionable Hough avenue Congregational church, Cleveland, holds that had St Paul known anything of the towering abominations as women wear on their heads nowadays the apostle would nev er have declared that women should keep their heads covered while in church. Therefore he recently re quested the women of his congregation to remove large hats dating service, and nearly everyone has complied. Dr. Carroll had from time to time been in receipt of complaints from men that the high hats made it im possible for them to listen to sermons with any degree of enjoyment "I was at a loss," says the doctor, "to know what to do about it, and so I came to the conclusion, after thinking the matter over carefully, that the best course would be to throw the respon sibility upon the women themselves. I took counsel of several of the mbst thoughtful ladies among my congre gation, and they told me that they would support me in my efforts to in duce the women to remove their hats In church. On Sunday evening, there fore, at the close of the second hymn, I stood up in the pulpit and stated that I had a favor to ask of the wo men. I told them of the pathetic let ters that had reached me from the men who had been shut out from see ing my face and compelled to listen ' blindly to my words and appealed to ' them to help me in the matter by re moving their hats. Nearly every wo man in the congregation complied with the request There was no con fusion and no levity. One or two were a little slow and shy in removing their hats, but when they saw all the others doing it they quickly did like wise. The advantage was very great to the hearers, and was particularly pleasing to the speaker. It seemed to bring my congregation closer to me and made the audience seem like one big family to see the womenBitting without hats in unaffected freedom and homelike rimplicity. I hope to continue the practice until it becomes a custom. I have not heard of any opposition to the movement and do not anticipate that there will be any." Aak for AUear Foot -Ease.

The domestic goose, however, like the sheep, is an epicure respecting tender grasses and juicy fodder plants. After the breeding season, is past, ths old stock, which only re- Suires tb.be .kept .In gdod store con' ition until ihe approach of aribtiier breeding season, can be economically kept by confining them to a pasture, where they can easily obtain most of their living by grazing. They should have access to water at all times, aad a little dry. corn occasionally Is ac ceptable. If the supply of grass Is scanty, more grain should be fed, or, better., they tnty be supplied with greenfoods, cultivated for the purpose, after the manner of growing soiling crops for feeding cattle. By this method people with comparatively small areas of land may grow large flocks of gos lings, confining them upon a limited area, and cultivating fodder crops to be cut and fed to them day by day. Or they can be confined upon the grow ing crops by the use of movable fences. When the crop is eaten sufficiently close the fence Is moved td a flew area, and the vacated lot allowed to grow up for a second feeding, br the land plowed and planted to a new crop. As almost no ground was available for pasturage near the poultry yards, preparations were made early in the spring for growing some fodder crops as green food for the goslins. Oats, both with and without Canada peas, were sown as early as possible, at the rate of about four bushels of oats and one of peas per acre, so as to get a thick stand. When the grain was three or four inches high the goslings were hurdled upon it, using at first wire netting one foot high, held in place by Iron rods to confine them. Water and sharp sand, thoroughly wet, were kept constantly by them, and they were fed soaked cracked corn, at intervals of two hours, when quite small, and less frequently as they grew older. The oats were always before the peas, and unless the crop was fed very closely the peas would remain untouched. When the oats are young the goslings should be changed from place to place frequently, so that the roots of the oats will not be killed by too close feeding. A succession of oats can be bad by making several sowings at in tervals of a week. Green oats are ea gerly eaten by large goslings or old geese, as long as the stems have not turned yellow and grown fibrous and tough. ,' The first green food in the spring' can be supplied by fall sown rye, but grass seeemsftb be preferred by gos lings If obtainable. 'Sown after rye begins to joint or send up seed stalks, it becomes hard)shd tough, and 'is not relished Cahhage. turnips and sweet corn are excellent soilingj-Vcrops for geese Sweet- corn, sufficiently ad vanced to-be in the roasting ear stage, will be almost or qultidevoured when fed at night to geese in pens.--' Only small .pieces of tne largest and hard est butts willremain uneaten. Hun garian grass, or millet was tried, but it, did not appear to be relished at any stage of its growth. The very satis factory plants used were sorghum and Essex rape. a - r The young goslings eagerly ate the leaves of the Dwarf Essex rape and made excellent growth when hurdled upon it. As soon as the gos lings are removed to another place the rape plants begin immediately to grow a new supply of leaves, and thus the crop can be repeatedly grazed, if the hurdling is properly done. A wire fence two feet high, held in place by double pointed iron rods, made in the shape of the letter h, with the top portion much higher, is used for confining the goslings. The two points of the rod are about ten inches long, and are thrust into the ground, the point of the tall portion being thrust through the lower edge of the wire fencing, while the upper edge is held by a notch in the top of the rod. Of course, different lengths of rods must be used for different widths of fencing. Cabbages make excellent food for geese, and are especially adapted for winter use. particularly during the breeding season, when a greater va riety of food is desired to stimulate the production of fertile eggs. Beets, turnips, carrots and potatoes will also prove acceptable, both raw and cooked and in moderate quantities may . be profitably fed. Geese are fond of ap ples, and when confined in an orchard will consume the imperfect fruit that drops from day to day as completely as sheep or hogs. Working Batter. Methods of butter making will al ways be in order so long as people pre fer a choice article, says Maine Fanner. A critical examination of the large and fine exhibition of butter at the Tops ham fair brought out anew the im portance of what is known as working butter. To bring out a first-class arti cle of butter it is not only necessary to have good milk, but every part of Ish must be done just abont right. At dairy exhibitions it is now quite com mon to find samples of butter that are not worked much. There has been so much said, of late, by public instructors at dairy conventions and dairy schools about over-working butter that many makers have gone to the other extreme and do not work enough. This is more frequently met' in private make than in the factory product Several samples at the Topsham exhibition were faulty oa that account The same was true at the Lewiston state fair. Butter not worked enough Is quite as faulty as that which is over-worked. Writers may proclaim that butter needs no working as much as they please, yet the claim will be untrue so long as the present standard of merit continues. Those for whom butter is made desire a condition of the article that Is enly secured by what Is popularly known as working. Too much of this working is injurious, too little is defective. In the making of good butter there are three conditions dependent oa or brought about by what Is termed working. 1. Adhesiveness. There should be t csrtslB aptrtsirp of ttjisafi aRUsmf tlr particles or globules of batter. TiW should bs suflcleat to cause it to ad here tsgwther as oa common avass.. This costlitio. ! jast tat opposite ofj wait II kaUrwh as proas aft4 erambly. It is sometimes vetf flroiJefly W: nated as "waxy." .waning treD"f UM wax. compact without being sticky u? greasy. Ckjasamers say such butter cuts wslL Bayers say It drawi well on the tryer. This desired eendltioa 11 eared by forking: I Water. Buttef contains a fteaJ u.cst df ii-iBi, f-kfcf ,'. msieh attention being given at the present time 18 t amount of moisture butter should con tain; AA tlftdtje share renders It defec tive": Wien ,butt$F fe taken fitrm the chrii mSrS Jlquii adjef eS t8, tne par ticles or granules tain w dsslrhbl. Whether this be buttermilk, pure water or brine from the salting too much Is more than Is wanted. This excess is taken out by working. Hence too little working leaves too' much Water in the product . 1 Strafe 8U Intensifies or brings oiit cbibr in buttef. . Wfaer the salt Is not thoroughly mlngled-with all parts of the butter alike the butter after It Is made up will show light col ored streaks, and will have a mottled appearance when cut down. This Is a serious defect and will knock off more af laaa a nnnnd from the price when ever found. Mottled butter gives the Impression to consumers of Unclean ness and filthy habits about the mak ing, and they do not like it This con dition can be overcome by working and mingling the lighter parts with tin mass till the salt is evenly distributed and all becomes one common shade. Thus it is seen that the proper work ing of butter is an important matter and means money to the maker. It is rare at an exhibition now to find a sam ple over-worked. It Is a common thing to find it under-worked. In the effort to avoid an extreme in the one direction caution has gone too far in the other. It is the maker who gets all these con ditions the nearest right who secures the highest score and takes the prizes. Butter-making requires the constant application of a skilled judgment Some Old Reelpcs. A New England gentlewoman early in the century wrote the following quaint recipes in her notebook, in a beautifully clear, even hand: A friend to the ladies would take this opportunity to advise them to sup ply their toilets with the following valuable articles, viz.: First Self-knowledge, a . mirror showing the form in the most perfect light Second Innocence, a white paint, beautiful, but easily soiled, and requir ing continual care to preserve its lus ter. . Third Modesty, a rouge giving a de lightful bloom to the cheeks. Fourth Contentment, an infallible smoother of wrinkles. Fifth Truth, a salve rendering the lips soft and delicious. Sixth Gentleness, a cordial impart ing sweetness to the voice. Seventh Good humor, a universal beautifier. A lady who possesses all these toilet articles must certainly be well equip ped. They are probably as efficacious now as they were nearly a hundred years ago. Doubtless they were com posed and presented to the lady in question by some gallant beau an ob server of, as well as "a friend to," the ladies. Sifted Coal Ashes for the Hens. In the winter time, when it is Im possible to get road dust for the hens, sifted coal ashes may take their place. We say nothing about the barrel of road dust that may have been pro vided from last fall, for we are morally certain that such barrels are empty and most of them have always been in that condition. Give the fowls something to wash themselves in, for the hen uses dust in the place of water. She has no use for water for bathing. Agricultural Outlook Good. The Farmers' Review considers the outlook for crops the coming season as goody There was generally enough moisture late in the fall to put the ground in condition for the winter and early spring. With exception of the fall sown wheat all prospects appear now of the best. The fruit trees did not overbear last year, but had enough moisture in the early part of the summer to make it possible for them to form new buds and prepare for this year's crops. The cattle are generally healthy, and being in small supply, will not increase in sufficient numbers to bear the market This is true of all kinds of stock. Therefore with the better financial out look, with the increasing population, with the decreased stocks of nearly all kinds, and with crop conditions good, it does look as if the farmer would be given a breathing spell and some chance to recoup the losses of the past few years. Teasing the Animals. Teasing of young animals on the farm should never be tolerated. It may be very funny to see the young things make use of their tender horns, and stamp ing of feet, etc., but as they grow older and learn to know their strength, they often become vicious, and then some day in a fit of bad temper they are liable to injure some member of the family, or strangers which may happen to be passing by are very like ly to be attacked by vicious animals. Give all animals on the farm kind but firm treatment. Animals should be made to both respect and love their attendants, but this cannot be accom plished if they are allowed to be teased. Farm Journal. Water in Cow Foods. Milk contains an average of 88 per cent of water. It follows, therefore, tbat the dairy cow requires an abundant supply of liquid food. The required quantity may be obtained partly from ordinary foods, the water contents of which may vary from 5 to over 90 per cent of their total weight. This contained water, however,, is not normally sufficient to meet the requirements of the economy of the animal, and it has been experi mentally proved that the form in which the dairy cow receives her nec essary amount of liquid food is not without indifference. Ex. A Good Poultry House. It costs no more to build a well regulated poultry house than a poorly regulated one. Crawling and twisting through little doors, working at a disadvantage with nests and teed boxes, opening stubborn windows and other unpleas ant things to grapple with, is enough to try the patience of any one, and al most lead them to say "there is a time when patience ceases to be a virtue." With the best arrangements there is always enough to try the attendant without unnecessary hindrances. Ex.
