rr-s -rr doh't "WOEK befobb bbbakpasx. V A' bad cn6tom is prevalent in many families, especially among our farmers, writes J. L. Hersey. It is the habit of working an bonr or two before breakfast, doing the chores, hoeing, cutting -wood, etc. This is convenient in many cases, bnt is not conducive to health. The common notion that the morning air is the purest and most , healthful is wrong, for at no hour is the air more filled with dampness and fog than about sunrise. The heat of the sun gradually dissipates these as the day advance?. An early meal , braces up the system against these ex ternal influences. New England Homestead, , . ' , VRQT8 WITH THE BEST STOCK. ' It is very difficult for a farmer who fa just beginning in this business, and who finds all sorts of expenses accumu lating', to make up his mind to secure only the best stock, no matter what it cost. Yet if he really under stands his business this is what he will do if his purchase has to be restricted to a single animal. Breeding from Ahia he can soon stock up to the extent fhat his farm requires, and his profits on his live stock increase will be gen erally greater than from the growing and sale of crops. It is the advantage of the live stock on the farm that if managed as it should be that ii will make the farm pay while it is being all the time made richer, and that thus it will make the growing of crops ultimately .profitable. Boston Culti vator. ; ' APPI4S8 fob cows. . Apples are abundant this year, find In many cases "it is an open question whether it will pay to ship them. We would advise that only the very best quality be shipped and the leBt be fed to the cows. Where markets are so depressed, as at this time, it often happens that common stock will not j-ay any profit at all, while really choice fruit will bring a fair price. If, therefore, we ship only the best we have a better chance of making some thing on our apples, and at the same time have a lot of good feed for the cows, or, in fact, almost any kind of stock. - Begin gradually, as should be done with any new kind of feed, and work up until you reach the desired limit, which will be found to be about ten pounds per day for a cow. Apples oontain a greater proportion of carbo hydrates to protein than most feeds ; consequently thoy need to be supple mented by some feed rich in protein, such aa linseed meal or bran, and in this case we would prefer the bran, as the apples themselves have all the medical properties that make the lin seed valuable. If it is possible the apples should be run through a root cutter, as there is danger of the cows choking them selves. This danger is, we think, rather remote, as we have seen lots of apples eaten by cows, andjhavejyet to eeo.the first cow choke. National Btockman. f . - SHEEP RAISING OK THE FABM. I am a sheep man first, last and all the time, for it is my belief that sheep are the only farm animals that are profitable, . says John Newland. In September, 1893, I bought seventy eight head of sheep, which averaged sixty-six pounds. The following May I sold twenty-five of these at $2.10 per head, four head for $8.50, eighty-four head for 120.40. I had four left. The sheep cost me $103.80. Hum ming up all expenses, including first , cost, value of eheep on hand, wool, etc., I find I made a net profit of $94.70. Not counting labor required to take care of the flock, I reoeived 31. U0 per bushel for grain feed. This does not take into account the value of the manure, or the good the sheep did as scavengers. The man who cares for sheep must be especially adapted to this kind of work. In 1883, 1 was working for a man in Bar ber County, Kansas, and had under my charge 800 sheep. I took the sheep through one of the hardest win ters, and lost only twenty-six out of the llock. This was considered re markable, as the sheep men in that lo cality count on a loss of ten per cent. When the ewes began to drop their lambs, out of a possible four hundred I saved 3G0, or ninety per cent. It ws only, however, by special attention and care that it was possible to save eo large a number. Last year at my home in Indiana, twenty-nine ewes produced forty-one lambs. The sheep which 1 feed and handle , myself are no more trouble than so many chickens. Some years ago I went into partnership with Mr. John Bailey and we bought 145 eheep. Tho dry weather came on and Mr. Bailey became alarmed, and told rae , to take the entire flock myself. I did eo. I sold 103 of them and retained forty. At the end of the next year I had a net profit of $119.20 from this flock. Thif, too, under adverse con ditions. From the above it will be seen that sheep are profitable, if carefully looked after. American Agricultur ist . OUTSEAS A8 GAME. ; We nave tramped the praries of Illi nois many a day back in the 'GO's in search of prairie chickens, writes H. J3. Geer. We have shot them from the few trees in the scattering groves that bordered the creeks about Delaven Prairie in Logan County. That was when the whole country was up m arms and the tramp of the soldiers was heard in the land, and shot and shell " abounded everywhere. Then again, when in Missouri, right after 'Price's raid," in tho Eoutheast m part of the State, we hunted , . pheasants in the heavy woods of the bottom lands of Perry and St. Gen evieve Counties. Those were Btirring time", lively times, and good times for the woods ftiau and Lanier. ' Tut all that is past uott, and the miTi tr f-it. 4 KuTi . U ,1 ,J i : Z 11 1 . - chickens, pheasants, etc, is now given over to fields and lanes. Partridges still abound, and are protected by law, and afford' good sport and a full game bag in the fall of the year. They seem to thrive under the conditions of civilization, and there is another spe cies of fowl, or bird, that prospers and multiplies while surrounded by fields, pastures and orchards. We refer to the guinea fowl, a bird that came to us originally from Africa, Plainly it is of the same family as the grouse, pheasant and prairie chicken, and It is superior to them inasmuch as it takes kindly to domestication. Guineas might be raised by the dozen or even by the hundred, where only a few are raised to-day. They, take naturally to range, will forage for a living, make their nests out in the brush, and hatch and raise their young without any care to speak of on the part of their owners. It would take but little effort on the part of the farmers of any community to stock their outlaying premises with guineas, a speoies of bird fully as good for the table as the prairie chick ens that they hunted so vigorously in the earlier days of the country. The flesh of the guinea is dark it is true, but so is the flesh of any other wild bird dark, and the guinea is just as well suited to the table as the wild chicken of the prairie. It occurs to us that the cultivation of the guinea as game to some extent would be profitable and . satisfactory. Farm, Field and Fireside. FABM AJTD GARDEN NOTES. The asparagus fern is one of the best plants for decorative uses, being ex tremely graceful and very lasting. The sheep should have a good dip ping before winter sets in ; it will save trouble, suffering and death during that season. , One of the best fertilizers for the window garden is the coffee left over from breakfast. It should be applied cold. Coffee grounds are often recom mended, but I have found that they have a tendency to mold. - The petunia is a very satisfactory plant for a window box. It is well to fill a window with them, as they re quire a cooler room than some window plants and plenty of sun. Then, too, the massed effect of them is good. The best palms for home growth are the sturdy'India rubber tree, the par lor palm or Aspidistra lurida, and the zebra palm Eulalia. These are hardy and are easily kept clean, and will Btand the heat of the living room. Nasturtiums can be readily grown in water, the same as the 'hyacinth or Chinese lily. The jar should be half filled with charcoal before the water is pcired in. The plant is started from slips and soon presents a beautiful ap pearance. The following is recommended when the sheep's feet seem tender: One part vasaline or lard to one part acetate of copper well ground and mixed with it. This will counteract whatever poison that may affect the feet through the effects of impure matter in ground. A Gun That I'itclies a Baseball. A Princeton professor, Mr. Hinton, has invented and patented a gun that pitches a baseball which curves in its flight according to the intentions of the marksman. Mr. Hinton is an Englishman, a graduate of Oxford, who came to Princeton from Yokoha ma, where ho had a boys school. He was a constant cricketer in England, and long before he came to this coun try, had developed an interest in the American practice of pitching baseballs in curves. When he got to Princeton he learned how to do it himself. Then he determined that the Princeton bats men needed much more practice than the pitchers they had could give them, for pitching cur red balls is very hard work and uses men up. So he set to work to make a machine that would pitch, and after a great deal of study and experiment he eeems to have suc ceeded. His machine is a gun, the power is powder, and it is said to work well, so that it promises to be as useful to the Princeton nine as the tackling machine which is kept in the Princeton gymnasium hap been to the eleven. Thus again has intellect despatched a Frankenstein to compete with human thews and perhaps cheapen labor. To have invented a pitcher is great, though the human element in pitchers is interesting, and it is likely to be some time before the machine wholly supersedes the man. The spot where the human element might be eliminat ed to advantage is the umpire's place. If, while his mind is still on sport, Mr. Hinton can invent an umpire who shall prove accurate and reliable, and adaptable to baseball, football, and prize fighta, he will not only do a great service to the cause of sport, but zuake hin own fortune in the pro cess. All that is wanted of an umpire is accuracy and prompt action. One with a dial face and " works" in him, incapable of prejudice or error, would be ideaL Harper's Weekly. In tho Ileart of an Oafr.

Messrs. B. G. Dunn k, Co. says: "Thero is mora business, though not at better prices. It is interesting that almost all prices which-change at all are lower than a week ago and yet bus iness is unquestionable larger. There is a laager production, but as yet not as much increase in consumption, and there is larger buying of materials, but at present only because better prices are expected in the future. A few con spicuous failurres during the week have had no material influence. The mar ket for securities are slightly stronger and yet there is very little doing. The m number of hands employed, all industries considered, is slight ly larger than a week ago, with out adverse changes in- the rate of wages. All apprehension of foreign dis turbance of money markets has passed away, but there is still a great caution in making loans. It is a mistake to reckon these as symptoms of depres sion. On the contrary, in spite of the lower range ' of prices in important in dustries, the conditions all indicate larger production and consumption in creasing, not as yet largely, but stead ily. ; "The earnings, of railroads in Jan nary have been 4.4 per cent, smnller than last year.

Friday night Charles Forsythe and Willis White, negroes, were taken from Twiggs county jail, at J efferson ville, Ga., and lynched by a. masked mob of 100 men. The negroes were swung from a scrubby oak and before death could ensue from strangulation their bodies were filled with bullets and buckshot. The crime for which the men were executed was the killing of Mrs. Row land at Adams Park, on the night of January 13. They went to Rowland's store and asked for money and food, and while Mrs. Rowland was comply ing with their demands one of them shot her with a pistol, the ball striking her in the abdomen, causing death the next day. The negroes were arrested, and each accused the other of the crime, but there is no doubt of their guilt. It is said the lynching is the result of the long-deferred punishment of Mrs. Nobles and Fambles, convicted of mur der, but by pleas of technicality have cheated the gallows for two years, en tailing Heavy expense on the county. CUBA'S OTHER SCOURGE. There Are 2,053 Cases of Small-Pox In Havana Alone. There are now 2,053 cases of small pox in Havana. At Guannajay, in Pinar dei Rio, which has only 10,000 inhabi tants, there are 467 cases. Yellow fever and malaria are also ravaging the country, and it may be safely affirmed that the sanitary condition of Cuba is a far g. eater danger to the United btates than the much-feared bubonic plague of India. Cuba is close to our coasts, and there is d.ily communication between the island ana the main land. At the end of March the depressing warm weather begins here, and then diseases of a contagious nature spread twice as fast as during the winter. Cuba is now a focus of disease, and may become a source of danger, perhaps to the whole world. The small pox was introduced here by the 200,000 soldiers from Spain. The Spanish common people are not cleanly in their habits, and moreover, they corao to Cuba crowded by thousands in the dirty steamers of the Compania Transatlantica, in which no well bred American would travel if he could help it. - ' . Women for War. A question of woman's rights has been raised in the war department and is likely to cause discussion. The civil service commission recently advertised to fill a $1,500 vacancy in the Adjutant General's office, requiring knowledge of five modern languages, typewriting in these languages, proof reading, li brary methods and other qualifications. Miss Maud Stalnaker, of Washington, a lady of unexceptionable character and accomplishments, was the only person who passed the examination and she was duly certified for the position, but the appointment has been rejected on the ground that the department does not desire to have women in the place. Eighty-Three Cuban Claims. Faiday in response to a resolution the President transmitted to the Senate a list of the claims filed in the Depart ment of State- by American citizens against Spain, arising out of the insur rection in the Island of Cuba, together with such correspondence relating to the capture of the schooner Competitor and the persons claiming American cit izenship taken on that vessel as he does not deem it incompatible with the pub lio interest to communicate. The list of claims includes 83, and aggregate nearly ten million dollars, where the amount is stated. Weyler Still Devastating. A dispatch from Havana, bearing date of January 22, states that Captain General Weyler has ordered the de struction within three days of all the plantations and buildings in the pro vince of Havana that would be likely to prove useful to the rebels. The dis patch adds that General Weyler has re called General Pin, the commander of the troops in the province of Santa Cjara for the reason that he had held conferences with land owners in that province respecting General Weyler's order issued to prevent the obtaining of food by the rebels. Southern Improvement. The Manufacturers' Record, in its weekly review of business conditions in the South, gives a detailed statement showing the total value of all exports from Southern ports for the eleven months ending November, 1896, ; as compared with the corresponding time in 1895. the total figures for 1896 being $298. 638, 200 against $220, 208, G12 in 1895, a gain of $78,600,000. The increase in the value of exports for the period named from the entire country was $156,300,000; the gain atSouthem ports bring a little more than one-half of the total country. An Apt Comparison. The following Is an Interesting com parison: "Suppose that a farmer raises 1,000 bushels of wheat In a year, and also cells this to 1,000 persona In all parts of the country, a great portion of them saying, 'I will hand you a dollar in a short time.' The farmer doe not want to be small and saya 'all right.' Soon the 1,000 bushels are gone and he has nothing to 6how for it, and he then realizes that he has fooled away his whole crop, and Its value is due In a thousand little driblets. Subsequently he Is seriously embarrassed in business because his debtors, each owing him one dollar, treat It aa a small matter, and think it would not help much.
