Gluten meal lias been much used ns
feed for much cows, but it is even
better for horses that nro working. We
havo often used it for working tennis,
niid regard it as neatly or ipiile as
jood as an equal weight of oats. The
gluten meal contains all that is left
niter tho ciiidnili volrates in tho corn
have been changed into sugar. It is
slightly laxative aud is therefore bet
ter than oats to feed with timothy hay.
Clover luiv is also laxative, but if
horses are given it iu small quantities
with a mixture of grain and gluten
meal they will do good work qu it.
Horses like clover too well. If given
nil they cnu cat of it they will gorge
themselves until nature Rets up a diar
rhiea to rid the stomach of its burden.
Of course this will unlit any horse for
good work. Timothy hay is not liked
so well and its tendency is constipat
ing. That is one reason why it is pre
ferred by horsemen. Put this consti

In "A Talk about Hums," by Waldo

foul odors nro earned to the loft, con

H is plan for o stablt' is good, ec -pt
that the hay chutes should be m the
ends, so the mow may be filled full,
and these chutes should l,u covered
with tight-fitting hatches to prevent
the breath of the stock and 111-.; odors
of tho stuble from coming iu contact
with the feed.
I put a ventilating shaft iu each
side of my stables, iu the rear of the
btock, extending through the roof u
sufficient height to give it a draft. A

ItOW To KEEP CHEESE.
Cheese must not be kept in a warm
nnd dry place. The best place is a
cellar such as would lie called dry,
which will anyhow have some moisture
in it, nnd soino is necessary to the
proper keeping of cheese. Darkness
is preferable to light, ami a low tem
perature, but not lower than fifty-five
degrees is ib-siroble. The choso will
becomo moldy ou the outside; tho
mold is permitted until the surface is
covered, when it is scraped off, and
the cheesa is washed with water at
eighty degrees ami all the mold is re
moved. It is thoa wiped dry aud
greased with sweet oil or butter, un
salted, to till tho pores iu tho crust.
It is thus left for a few weeks aud
this is repeated. In this way the
cheeso slowly changes its character,
improving all the timo iu flavor and
texture. It becomes fatty by the
change of some of tho caseiue into a
kind of fatty matter, and a peculiar
mild aroma is produced quite differ
ent from the intolerable smell of Iho
j conrso Kinds of semi-putrid cliecsa
known as liimbttrger, or soino of the
overcurcd German cheese. Tho cur
ing described is that practiced with
tho Rrio and tho Roquefort cheeses,
us well aa that finest of nil kinds, the
English .Stilton. As a ru'e we do not
givo requisite attention to curing our
cheese, and lionce its want of high
quality. Tho euriuu of cheeso is a
slow process that requircsskillful con
trol, or it becomes decomposition.

Tho young plants aro tender, and if
they receive n severe check nt the

important to secure n vigorous Hteadv

Do not water the plants twenty-four
hours previous to transplanting, but
give them a generous sprinkling just

The ground must be well mellowed ;

Territory, had a good deal of trouble
with the Indians, and especially with
their chief Colorow. With a party of
his braves Colorow came to Denver one
day aud after drinking heavily, told
his followers that ho wus going up to
kill McCook. The governor had his
ofliee iu a two-story building and had
his buck to the door, with a looking
glass on the desk in front of him, so
that ho could see any olio com'iig iu
without turning round. McCook was
expecting soino trouble with Colorow,
mid was seated at his desk when tho
Indian ennio iu. Colorow had a pistol
'in his hand and approaching McCook,
he Mood by his side and grunted:
"McCook liar." The governor never
looked up but kept ou writing. "Mc
Cook heap liar," repented the Indian,
but tho governor never noticed it.
"McCook heap big liar," continued
Colorow, aud still tho pen scratched
away. Colorow mistook McCook's
silence for fear nnd let his pistol-hand
drop until his arm hung dowu straight.
In an instant McCook graspod the In
dian's wrist and iu and in another tho
pistol fell to the floor. Turning him
around the governor deliberately
thrust him down stairs and out of the
door into the circle of Indians who
were waiting for the expected trouble.

chief a parting push ho returned to

j In this restless ago and country, says
j the New York Tribune, It Is rare for
live generations of ono family to have
lived In uninterrupted contlnunuee
In the ancestral homestead, but Mari
etta Hollcy, tho delineator of Joslah
Allen's Wife, can claim this distinction.
Jletween PlerpoDt Manor and Adams,
In Jefferson County, and not more
than seven miles from Lake Ontario,
Is situated the Ilolley homestead. The
five generations of Holleys have lived
quiet, peaceful lives ou this beautiful
spot. Tho pnrents of Miss Marietta
Ilolley moved Into the little brown cot
tage the tiny after their marriage and
remained there until borne to their
last long resting place.
