It was not strange , then , that a cloudy day was a welcome hlght to a long sweltering community. However , Lincoln should not bo classed as MilVering from the heated term , for it is the only mineral watering place in the stato.

Twenty-five Tlioiisaiitl Uacliclors in Montana Win ) Cnu't Gel Wives. Miles City Correspondence Philadel phia liucord : The climate of Montann is not particularly healthy for Mormons , principally , I believe , because the soil contains t-o many wideawake baenelor cowboys who are badly in need of wives themselves. The royal cow-punchers of .Montana hale a Mormon male as they do a snake. Doing unable to get a single helpmeet themselves , although able to support a doxen where a Mormon cannot support one , it riles them to have some- long hnired nucally older coino along with lour , live , and possibly six wives , and settle down with the utmost gall ami cheek on a government claim. There are about 20,000 more bachelors in Montana than there urn wnucil 'l' ' ' ' ° - gelhcr. Nearly all ol these 23,000 have splendid ranches , farms , or claims of some kind , and need only n wife to com plete , their cup of hanpiiiojs. It is no exaggerntcit picture [ am draw- inn , for the vast territory of Montana contains innumerable bachelor homes , and these bachelors would make the best of husbands if given hnif n chance. Tlio little town of Maiden , a few miles north of here , contains not a single unmarried lady. The small village only ten miles west of us is simply a community of bachelors. These thousands of young men , middle-aged men , and old men all have comfortable bank accounts , and would marry on the slightest provoca tion , so to speak. Each one is calculated to make some woman happy , and would give the damsel who cared lo risk her liituro with him all tlio ready cash she could possibly spend in Ibis world. No wonder our bachelors hale the Mormon males who have more than llieir share of female blessings. Forty Years Ao. { 1'oH Deposit ( JM. ) Call. There was limo to live. Men slept yet in their bods.

( Jardenor's Chronicle : The span o human life in the. present era of the world's existence , oven in the case o tboso who live to bo old , is of short dur ation compared with that ol trees , the progress of which to a state of maturity is proportionately so much slower thai that of man , that those who plant smul trees do not live long enough to see mucl of the effect they produce , In the case of that favorite fruit , the pear , it used tc be said that those who plant them plan for their heirs , and willi the ordmarj kind of trees planted to give ofl'ect or shelter there is , till longer to wait. To shorten time in waiting i the manifest Object of the ewho go to the trouble of planting large trees instead of little ones ! u the grounds about their dwellings or other conspicuous places , where the presence of Mich are required. Where \u > rk of this kind lins to be done , it often happens thit enough forethought is not brought to bear on the proceeding * . In place of taking1 the precaution of pre viously preparing the tree bv trenching round them , and e\ering the roots to within a movable compass , so a to admit of a season's growth before thov are taken up , they aiv at once transferred from where they have been growing for perhapsu score of yours ] or more with their roots unchecked in any way ; the result of which i , that the progress made for a year or twoafteruard i not near so much as it would be if the roots had been previously shortened back in the way named. ' 1 he onnsiion of this timely preparation of trees that are to be trail * planted when much above the ordinary planting sixe , IMhrlov excusable when it is remembered how little labor cutting into the roots as described involves. To the too frequent ab-etico of judgment and reasonable caiv in moving 'trees that have led many to the conclusion that It is better to plant Mnall trees and wait for them to grow upe\cn in positions where it is desirable to ha\e such a would give o fleet at once. In the case of deciduous kinds of a .si/e such as under notice , and that are Intcmieii tor removal next -autumn or winter , the sooner the root- shortening preparation is now com ) letcd tile better , before there is any appreciable movement in the buds. With ev'erjjrociis it is better to defer this work until the time that the drying March winds arc over , especially in eases where the trees are large and in vigorous condition , as with such the root-si'M-ranec necessary is proportionally nmrc fell than with .smaller examples.

It is not good policy to dry hay to brit- Jencss before drawing it from the mead ow , for that cause- , waste in handling and reduces qualitv. Grass is well cured when it will futile slightly in the hand ling , and then is the time to store it. While straw is not the bc-t fodder , it serves u very useful ptirpo * in the econ omy of the farm when led to cattle in con junction witli grain , and in seasons when fodder is scarce it may go a long way to relieve the demand for hay. U&o plenty of superphosphate and un- leached wood ashes on the tomatoes , peppers , eggplantand melons , as they do not begin to grow ilntil the weather becomes warm , and should he forced as much as possible , sometimes waterintr being ncc.ssary. Hoe gloves tli-.it have become dirty or covered witli propolis may be easily cleaned by soaking a few days in strong lye made trom potash or wood ashes , or by soaking in water saturated with quick- lime. The propolis conies oil without dllUculty after such a soaking. In time of drought , when the supply of hay is greatly shortened , cattle may be come cheap 'in the fall , owing to the in creased cost of keeping them over winter. It is advisable under Mich circumstances to sell early in order to get the best prices before they decline. There is no doubt that much first-class honey does nut bring first-class prices be cause of the manner ot putting it up. lib delicate llavor is lost and it soon becomes tainted by being put into whisky or mo lasses barrels or tven fresh wooden bar rels may give a taste. Tin cans , are per haps sator for storing or shipping honey in than any sort of wooden receptacle. The evolution of the tomato is going on in a remarkable way. Not many years ago the fruit was mostly sum and seeds , but the newest varieties are almost solid pulp witli very few seeds. Possibly , as in the case of the banana , the seeds will yet disappear altogether , and the plant's will have to be propogated by cut tings. Few larm crops take up so much potash as the potato. It is an alkaline juice that stains the hands when paring potatoes ; and it is best removed by o.xalie acid. This alone .should bo a sulheiont hint as to the kind of fertilizer most needed for potatoes , and is the reason why this crop aoonost fails on sandy soils , whore potosh n Usually deficient. Carefully gather the bcrapes from the table and give , tla-m to your fowls. There is no kind of food which will pro duce a more liberal supply of eggs.

This plain question conies home lo very housekeeper. We all desire pure md wholesome teed , and this cannot bo md with the use of impure or poisoii- nis baking powder. ' 1 here can be no ongcr a iiuestion that all the cheaper , ewer grade of baking powders conlam Mther alum , lime or phosphalie acid. As otli as we may be to admit so much igaiiist what may have been some of our household gods , there can be no pjainsaving the unanimous testimony of ho ollicial chemists. Indeed , analysts seem to llnd no baUtnir powder entirely rrc from sonic one of these objection- iblo ingredients except Hie Rojal , and hut they report as chemically imre. We inil some of the baking powders udvor- iscil as pure , to contain under the tests of Professors Chandler , llabirshaw and others , nearly twelve per cent , of lime , vliilc others arc made from alum with no cream of tartar. Tins , we presume ac counts for their lackof leavening power is sometimes complained of by the cook , md for the bitter taste found'in the bis cuits so frequently complained of by our- sehes Hut aside from the inferiority r . ' work done by these powders' ' , the physiol ogists assure us that lime yndalnm taken nto the system in such ijuunlitios asMJ" " !

They go with the bread , therefore , nto the stomach , where their physlojo- , * icul ollects ; arc indigestion , dyspepsia , or worse evils. The question naturally arises , why do hcse cheap baking powder makers use liese things ? Alum is three cents a ) ound , lime still cheaper , while cream of artar cost thirty-live or fortv. The cuson for the chemical purity of ( he loyal ISaking Powder were recently given in the Is evv York Times in an in- eresting description of a now method for efining tirgols , or crude cream of tartar. t seems llial is is only under Ibis process hat cream of tartar can be freed from the lime natural lo It and rendered oliem- cully pure ; that the patents and plant for this cost the Royal Dakiii ! ' Powder Company about : i million dollars , and hat they maintain exclusive controlot ho rights. Prol. McMurtrio , late chief chemist of he department of agriculture at Wusli- ngtonD. C. , in the interests of com merce , made an examination of this pro cess , and reported upon llio results at .ained in the 'refined cream of tartar. The lollowing extract from his report would seem to answer the question repeated at .behead of this article , and winch is so frequently propounded by the house keeper ; "I have examined the cream of tartar used by the Royal linking Powder Com pany in the manufacture of their baking powder , and Him it to bo perfectly pure , and free trom Jime in any form. The chemical tests to which I have Mibm.tled the Royal linking Powder prove it 'per ' fectly healthful , and free from every deleterious substance , " Dr. Hamilton Warren , Kcleutio Physi cian and .Surgeon , Room (5 ( , Crotmsu block corner 10th and Capitol avenue Day and night calls proinptlvattentod to Im- BEST TOM1C1 UNEnilALEDInrCONStlMI'IlOh WASTING DISEASES and GENERAL UEHILIIY.
