"A GREAT CATHEDRAL
An Architectural Masterpiece in
' - An English City,
An Edifice which it Took Thirty
Eight Years to Build, i
David Kcr in a letter to the New York
Times says: The one principal "feature
that gives to Salisbury its peculiar char
acter the central point -which is to it
what the Kremlin is to Moscow or the
Taj Mahal to Agra is undoubtedly its
- grand old cathedral, one of the many
- architectural masterpieces which have
almost bribed posterity to forgive the
, countless errors of the feeble and dis
: astrous reign of Henry HI. Founded in
1220, but not actually completed till
1238, it has preserved more of its original
character than almost any other of the
great mediaeval churches of England,
thanks both to the solid sti en gth of its
primary structure and to the judicious
moderation of the few restoring touches
which -the lapse of time has rendered
, necessary. The cathedral itself and the
spacious grounds attached to it form a
Jrind of citadel on one side of the town,
for the battlemented wall which shuts
them off from the latter on the east and
south is as high and massive as that of
many a feudal' stronghold, and ita
shadowy archways of antique masonry
are worthy of Windsor Castle itself.
The broad "expanse of the "close," fully
lialf a square mile in extent, forms with
its smooth, green turf and giant elms
. one of those characteristically English
landscapes that Washington Irving
,. would have loved to describe.
It is only by slow degrees that you be
gin to appreciate the magnificent height
- and size of the building. But when you
lave spent hours in gazing at the forest
-;..cf carved pinnacles high overhead, the
. countless niches with their antique
statues, the flying buttresses and tall
lancet windows, the deep, shadowy
porches, the successive roofs rising like
mountain peaks one above another, and
the mighty central tower far overtoping
them all, you can then realize to some
. extent what manner of work the build
ers of olden times could do.
Tho sfeeming lightness of ' the famous
spire almost disguised at first sight the
massive strength which ha3 defied other
dangers than those of time and war. In
1741 it was struck by lightning, but the
comparatively slight damage inflicted by
the stroke was speedily repaired. No
trace of it, at . all events, is now to be
seen upon that splendid pinnacle which
is to Salisbury what the pillar of the
Kootub Minar is to the environs of Delhi.
Miles away upon the ridgy downs or the
broad dusty plains of South "Wiltshire,
the great landmark can still be seea
keeping silent watch over the city at its
foot, as stately and imposing now, after
.rnorethp , fiOOjrarsof existence, aslt was
storing jj)nd upon it in t&e days of
Charles If. Among the many English
jWQrthies who lie at rest beneath the
shadow of the great cathedral is one of
special note, who, although he figured
pre-eminently in the history of his time
owes quite as mueh of his fame to
Shakespeare and Sir "Walter Scott as to
any historian. On a slab in the chancel
is. engraved the name of Guillame Long
espe'e (William Longsword), first Earl of
Salisbury, the renowned son of Henry IL
and Fair Rosamond, from whom he de
rived his popular nickname, "William of
-Woodstock." One might well be sur
prised to see him here, remembering
.with what severity the dust of his ill
fated mother was excluded from conse
crated ground by the uncompromising
churchmen of Oxford; but this indul
gence was fully earned by his valor
agains the French invaderVof England
during ;the disastrous rcin of John.
Brave as he was. howeveri he met bis
i
match at the battle of Bouvines in the
v person of a stalwart French bishop, a
CKt?oldier of the "church militant" in
----,ery senso, who beat him down with a
'heavy club and took him prisoner.
When Salisbury afterwards jested with
Iris captor upon this singular choice of a
" weapon the warlike prelate explained
V , that it was intended only for self-defense,
the canons of the church forbidding a
priest to shed blood. "By my' faith,
Loid Bishop," added Longsword, rub
- Ling his bruised head with a rueful
grin, "if this be thy self-defense, God
. tforbidhnl; I should ever feel thy blows
:in earnest."
Kissing as a Punishment.
Kissing as a punishment was to me
quite a new idea. But it was certainly -a
very ingenious and, as the event
;proved, a very successful one, A little
fellow came to me one day and said:
"Mr. 31. won't you make Frank B. stop
kissing mcf "Why!" said I, "don't
you like to be kissed?'? "No, I don't,"
aid he, very decidedly. Not being able,
'to get any more information from his
-pouting lips, I called up Frank, who
was a 6turdy, square-set boy of twelve,
and asked an explanation. 4 'Why, you
see, sir, he's been getting in my way
and troubling me, and, as he is too
small for mc to hit I just told him that
every time he bothered me I'd kiss
;him, and so I did, and, as he hates it
like poison, I think it will cure him."
'I presume it did cure him, for I never
heard from either party afterward.

F02 PAM AND GAEDEN.
Packing Butter for Shipment.
Butter ' intended for shipment to a
foreign market should be put; up with
great care in the best tubs that can Joe
procured. The butter should be well
made, entirely free from buttermilk,
'well salted with the finest ground salt, -and
worked dry. The firkins should be
new, made of soun. white oak thor
oughly well seasoned and dry before it
is put t&gether. When used they
should be soaked in fresh, clean water
for a few hours, then scalded with boil
ing water and soaked with it for 15
minutes;- then rinsed with fresh cold
water and well rubbed with dry salt. I
The butter is then packed as solidly as
possible in layers of 3 or 4 inches,
pressed firmly to the sides to avoid any
air spaces. Each layer is lightly sprin
kled with salt, which keeps them sepa
rate, so that the butter is easily cut out
for use. The firkin is filled to within
one-eighth of an inch of the top, and,
the butter is covered with a clean cloth
steeped in brine; the cloth is an inch
larger all round than, the firkin ft is
covered with wet salt, and the edge is
turned down, the salt' being pressed
tight to the chine to exclude air. The
head 6teeped as the rest of the tub is
then pressed down into its place, and
the hoops are tightened and fastened with
zinc tacks. An inch hole closed with a
tight plug is made in the head to pour
brine in, as may be necessary. New
York Times.
Oat Straw for Stock.
In a long series of experiments con
cerning the feeding value of oat straw,
Prof. Sanborn of Missouri says that this
straw is mainly valuable as a heat and
fat producer. It does not produce much
fat, because cattle, will not eat enough
of it. It contains but 1-4 per cent, of
digestible albumenoids, or flesh formers,
and forty per cent, of digestible carbo
hydrates, or fat formers. Hence, to use
it with advantage and get the full bene
fit of it, it must be fed with a food of
directly the opposite, kind, such as oil
meal or cotton-seed meal. The professor
found that thirty-four pounds of oat
straw and six pounds of cotton-seed
meal gave the same results as fifty
pounds of hay, because cotton-seed meal
has 33.2 per cent, of albumenoids and
but 17.6 per cent, of carbohydrates,
thus forming, with the straw, a well
balanced ration. Oil, meal contains 27. G
per cent, of albumenoids and twenty
seven per cent, of carbohydrates, so that
a pound more of oil mealtlian of cotton
seed meal should be fed. The cost of thi3
feed as compared with hay at $5 a ton, or
1-4 of a cent per pound, is an important
question. It is said to take twenty-five
pounds of it to make a steer gain a
pound a day, or 6 cents daily to keep
him in good growing condition. But if
by feeding four pounds of oil meal,
worth 1J cents per pound, the same gain
can be made, and" b"y feeding a propor
tionately less amount we can keep up
the weight, it will help out a short crop
of hay. But to the farmer who has not
and can not get oil meal the following
facts will be of value: Clover hay con
tains about nine per cent, of albumen
oids, timothy contains 5.8, and oat
straw 1.4 pjr cent. ; therefore it will be
seen that a ton of clover hay fed
w ith a ton of oat straw will be equal ia
value to two tons of timothy because
clover hay contains an excess of albu
menoids, and it is waste to feed oat
straw alo.nc. A steer fed on the, straw
long enough, would starve, but when
fed with clover it is a well-balanced ra
tion, and makes a poor hay prop go
much further. It is clearly established
that the food value of oat straw can be
obtained only by feeding with some
thing that hag an excess of albumenoids
and a deficiency of carbohydrates. The
farmer' k food of this class is clover hay.

Raising ynrkeya.
The common turkey is a native of
North America. Its name arose from
the confusion that at first existed rela
tive to the identity of tlie bird with the
Guinea fowl, which is known as a native
of Turkey. There is no better place for
keeping turkeys thaa a large, open shed.
It should be so constructed as to protect
the fowk from the inclemency of the
weather, and especially from wet, wh ch
plays sad havoc with them. Have high
perches, but do not neglect to make a
broad ladder for them to walk up to
roost, x night be asked why a ladder,
when the turkey in its wild state roosts
on trees and other high places? When
we fatten fowls in the domesticated state,
they become heavier than when wild,
and the weight is too much for the
strength of their wings. While enjoy
ing their liberty,- they take exercise
which preserves them from "aldermanic
proportions." Avoid roosting on trees;
many a flock has been wiped out of ex
istence in consequence of this. There
is no surer way to introduce roup among
your fowls than in allowing this practice.
The fem'.le begins to lay in spring,
As a rule, she will make her nest in some
obscure place, where she will drop an
gg daily, or every other day, until as
high as twenty eggs are laid, according
to the maturity of the bird. A turkey
hen is a very persistent sitter, and will
often half starve before she will leave
the nest. If kept in the house all .the
morning, which is the time they lay, the
possibility of hiding their eggs is
avoided. In the second layings, the
number of eggs rarely exceed thirteen.
Incubation varies from twenty-eight to
thirty-two days. Ypung turkey chicks
should be removed from the nest shortly
after they are hatched.
In feeding poults about two or three
months old, such boiled herbs as wild
succory,- turnip-tops and cabbage
sprouts are suitable. Boiled potato skins
and a few potatoes may be given, mixed
with beans, oats, barley ot buckwheats
When six months oldV boiled potato,
mashed, and mixed with meal, and fed
fresh in a. clean vessel, con tinned for
about a month morning and evening,
will develop a good weight, and fit them
for the market. If the early; market is
to be met, do not fail to keep the fowls
a greater portion of their time in- dark
ness, and curtail as much of their exer
cise as possible. Turkey poults must
be protected against cold or damp
weather,, as well as intense sunshine. In
case of rain they should be housed at
once. The turkey raiser must constantly
keep his eyes open, and never neglect
the slightest act of kindness or cleanli
ness. A great many turkeys die annu
ally for want of these. American Agriculturist.
Farm and Garden Notes.
The color of pure Devon cattle is red,
varying from a rich dark to a pale chest
nut. ;
Beasts with small chests do not fatten,
readily and are very susceptible to dis
ease. Sow seeds of mignonette and any
others that may be desired for the win
dow garden.
Carefully "hand-pick" "Ihe garden
seeds you saved last season, saving only
the perfect ones.
One of the most profitable ways of ap
plying ashes is sowing them broadcast',
over newly seeded ground.
If any plants that have been set out in
the border are to be repotted, do it early.
It may be necessary to cut back both top
and roots.
Whether the plants go into the green
house or windows, have all ready to re
ceive them in case they must be taken in
suddenly.
?- Hanging baskets, stands, &e., should
he filled early, using plenty of ivy to
twine about the handles and to hang
ver the edges.
Sunflower seed is often fed to poultry,
I imt if too much be given it will cause
the feathers to fall off, as it promotes
early moulting.
Fre4ent spading of the poultry yards,
with a sprinkling of lime, is the best
mode of cleaning. When the fowls are
closely confined the yards should be
spaded at least once a month.
There is no way to .prevent toads get
ting into the well except to cement over
the earth around the well for a circum
ference of six feet, and the cover or top
of the well should be close and tight.
A Michigan farmer sowed two fields
of wheat the one a crossed variety and
the pther not. With all the conditions
alike- the one that was crossed produced
nearly seventy -five per cent, more than
the other.
Grapevines that do not bear should be
cut back to the ground this fall after
frost, so that a new cane can take its
plnce next spring. It should be cut back
to the roots, so as to tiegin with sLen
tire new vine. J .
The use of the wind mill has rendered
stock raising much less difficult, for
where running streams were necessary
in pastures the water can now be led to
the fields by pipes from the tanks sup
plied by the wind mills.
On light soils where it is difficult to
grow wheat or oats cloversecd should be
sown in the falj, just' after the warm
days shall be over and the rains begin
ning. By so. doing a good "catch" can
be secured, which will avoid the neces
sity of sowing in the spring with a grain
crop to shade the young plants. '
In discussing bloat in cattle before a
farmers' club, one of the members said
that when turning cattle out on young
clover he usually placed old hay where
they could get it, and the consequence
was that the cattle would always eat a
portion of the old hay, which, having
been dry, absorbed the moisture and
prevented injurious results.
All hardy, strong-growing grasses,
like orchard grass and timothy, may be
sown in early spring or autumn. It is
important that it be sowrn on a fine mel
low seed bed, in the fall, and the seed
must be covered with a light harrow or
pressed into the soil by a roller. If sown
thus in the fall early there will be a good
crop of hay the next year, It! is better to
sow clover seed early in the spring, so
that the young plants may grow one sea
son before exposure to the severe frosts
of winter.
The Land of Lakes.
Finland is, in the language of the
country "the land of lakes," and this is J
really the truth, a? no less than one-third
is under water. Much of this is, how
ever, marsh land, though the lakes Sai
ina, Ladoga, Enara, etc., cover some
thousands of square miles. The surface
of the country is flat, with a chain of
low hills about the centre, the highest of
these being the mountain Aavasasa. The
coasts are deeply indentured and pictur
esque, withhold, granite cliffs, stand
ing out against the clear, blue sky, and
many islands belonging to the Archi
pelago of Aland dot the surface of its
western waters. Inland there are dense
forests of pine, fir and birch, hich have
a strange and enthralling influence on
the imagination. Notwithstanding their
usually sombre aspect, there arc in
numerable pleasant recesses of these
wood?, where the tall, white
stemmed birch" and great bowl
der?, covered with lichens, crop up
from the grass and form a pleasant pic
ture; beside this, the lakes have a beau
ty, solemn and romantic, which can
scarcely be found elsewhere! The land
scape, too, dotted with numerous wind
mills and the church lowers, built apart
from the places of worship, present
strange pictures; From these towers the
night watchmen sound their hornsr or
play upon triangles as an alarm of fire.
Cottage Hearth,
Valuable Find.
- About three years ago the Texas &
Pacific Railroad Company undertook to
sink an artesian well near Sierra Blanco,
95 miles east of 121 Paso. The pipe was
down 600 feet, when a cavern was struck,
the drill drupped about six feet and a
current of air rushed up the pipe. The
well was abandoned, and the tubing
acted as a flue from the cavern to the
surface of the earth. Ever since that
time the people of the vicinity have re
sorted to the spot in summer, to enjoy
the cool and invigorating air that comes
up the pipe. The current of air ebbs
and flow's like the . ocean tides, the
the current being outward one day
and downward the next. The. upward
flow has been discovered to possess mag
netic properties, and the people who
live near the well call it the "fountain of
youth."
Has Throat-Cancer. f
Notwithstanding the efforts that have
been made by the doctors in attendance
upon the Crown Prince of Germany, to
keep the public in the dark concerning
the true nature of their patient's malady,
it is said to be the common belief of
physicians in Germany, that the prince is
afflicted with cancer in the throat, which
will soon prove fatal If this be the true
state of affairs, the peace of Europe
seem3 to depend upon two lives, both of
which must soon terminate, the Emperor
being extremely old, and he who comes
next to him in the succession being mori
bund. Upon the death of the prince and
his father, the crown will go to young
Prince William, whose aspirations for
military glory in general, are combined
with strong hatred of France.
A sharp engagement took place on
the frontier of Servia between Albanian
brigands who had attempted a raid into
Servia and a force of frontier guards.
Ten Servians and twenty Albanians were
killed. Two Servian battalions have
been ordered to the frontier.

Brown's Little Joke.
"Why, Brou n, how short your coat is," said
Jones one day to his friend Brown, who wittily
replied: "Yes; but it will be long enough before
I get another." Some men spend so much for
medicines that neither heal nor help them,
that new clothes is with them like angel's vis
its few and far between. Internal fevers,
weakness of the lungs, shortness of breath and
lingering coughs, soon yield to the magic in
fluence of that royal remedy. Dr. R. V. Pierce's

Catarrh
May affect any portion of the body where the mucous

the most common, and, strange to say, the most liable
to be neglected. It originates in a cold, or succession
