    An Arbor Gateway.
The sketch herewith, from the Or
ange Judd Farmer, gives a suggestion
that can be adopted In many situations
both as to utility and beauty. Where
there Is a path through a farm fence
near one's buildings, necessitating a
narrow gate, this gateway can be com
bined with an arbor, as shown In the
cut This gives the ornamental part of
the device, or will when covered with
vines. If the vines bear grapes the use
ful part will be very apparent. When
such ornamenting of one's premises can
be combined with that which Is purely
useful, there Is small excuse for not
having farm premises more attractive.
Guessing Weight of Stock.
It Is surprising how many farmers
who grow live stock which they some
times expect to sell on the hoof take
sc little care to ascertain Its weight.
Their Ignorance In this matter often
costs them dear, as the butcher or oth'
er person who buys of them generally
Is supplied with scales, and can gener
ally guess within a few pounds what
an animal will weigh. In the writer's
boyhood, his father frequently bought
cattle and sheep to be fed awhile, and
then butchered, to supply his custom
ers with beef and mutton. It does not
take long to learn how to guess on the
weight of a beef. The size alone Is not
always a criterion. Old cattle, and es
pecially old cows, will not weigh so
iieavy as they look, and will usually
have more of their weight In Inside fat,
now worth very little, owing to the
competition of cotton-seed oil and other
vegetable oils. American Cultivator.
Horna on Domestic Animals.
All the reason for horns on any do
mestic animal ceased when they came
wholly under man's protecting care. It
was all right for the animal to defend
itself with horns while exposed to pred
atory animals, like wolves and bears.
When cattle run wild, as they long did
In the State of Texas, and as they still
do on the plains of South America,
their horns constantly Increased In
length and formldableness. But under
civilized conditions there Is no need
for horns. In some breeds they have
already been bred off. This will doubt
less become more general, as dishorn
lng at least the cows has become a
quite general practice. Calves may be
prevented from ever growing a horn
by applying a stick of potash on the
head where the horns would start, and
removing the hair, so that the potash
will make a slight sore on the skin.
Substitute for Roller.
An easily made substitute for
roller Is shown herewith. It Is from
the Farm Journal. The sides are cut
from two planks, and narrow strips are
then nailed to the lower edges. This
contrivance can be weighted to any de
gree desired and will do good service In
fining or firming the soil. A roller Is
one of the most valuable Implements
that a farmer can use In making a fine
gfUSTlTUTK FOR ROI.LKR.
seedbed, but scarcely one farmer out
nf ten owns a roller. The cost or the
trouble to make one Is the excuse given
for their absence from tue larm. tools
Lice and Mites.
For preventing lice and mites, more
depends on the care of poultry than
upon the style of the building. The
hen house should be sprayed Inside with
kerosene once a month during the sum
mer, paying especial attention to work
lng the oil Into the roosts and down
Into the crevices, also around the nest
boxes. Clear out the droppings at least
once a week. Lice and mites breed In
the droppings. After cleaning put In
little fresh earth. It will be a good
plan to smoke the Inside with sulphur
If the house is tight enough. Give the
hens a box of earth to dust tn and add
some powdered sulphur. Keep the in
elde of the house well whitewashed.
First Work for Teams.
After their winter's rest. If It has been
each, horses need to be broken Into
work very gradually. Their necks and
til-ousts, where the harness chafed, and
which had been toughened by a whole
season's work, have grown tender
again, and It will require several days
of lirht work to renew the cuticle which
disuse had allowed to disappear. There
should be frequent rests, and at such
. . ... . ..
times the collar should be pulled for
ward so as to allow the air to strike the
part. On no account should the horse
for the first week or more be allowed
to work In the rain, or be hard pushed
when he Is sweating. Care In the be
ginning of the season will save the
horse perhaps from being disabled for
work during a large part of the sum
mer.
Parsnips for Iate Use.
The parsnip Is not only one of the
hardiest of garden vegetables, winter
ing In the open ground without Injury,
as also does salsify or vegetable oys
ter, as It Is generally called, but, like
the last mentioned plant. It starts to
growing very early In the spring. So
soon as the leaves start on either, the
roots should be pulled up and carried
to a cool cellar or pit, as the growth of
leaves will very quickly make the roots
unfit for use. All the first leaf growth
Is taken from the root, and Is the begin
ning towards seed formation. The root
rapidly shrivels and loses Its succu
lence when the leaves grow larger. The
part of the parsnip at the surface of
the ground will taste acrid, and it
doubtless possesses some poisonous
qualities, as Is the common belief
among farmers. No kind of roots which
are biennials are fit to eat after their
second year growth has begun.
Tomato Grafting.
Replying to an Inquiry about graft
ing tomato slips on potato vines, the
Philadelphia Record says: "As tomato
cuttings will take root, It is uot diffi
cult to handle them. The process of
grafting tomato on the potato is as yet
experimental, and Is not always suc
cessful. Whole potatoes should be
planted, removing all eyes but one, so
as to get a stocky plant. The tomato
slip should be only large enough to be
of service (about three inches), and may
be Inserted Into the potato vine by
slitting the vine, leaving no bud of the
potato vine. If the bark of the potato
and tomato are united it will be better,
tut It Is claimed that such is not al
ways necessary. Keep the vines moist
at the ground and shade the plants if
necessary.
How to See Plants Grow.
To observe plants growing under the
microscope the American Monthly Mi
croscopical Journal says: "Procure a
little collomla seed. Take one of the
seeds, and with a razor cut off a very
tiny slice, cover with a cover glass and
place under the microscope. The in
strument must be lu a vertical position.
WThen it Is well focused and lighted
moisten It with a drop of water. The
seed will absorb the moisture and throw
out a very large number of spiral
fibers, giving the appearance of verit
able germination. Beginners will find
easier if one applies the moisture
while the other looks through the In
strument." Milking Device.
Slovenly milking Is often to be ac
counted for by the small size of the
pall's top. A good deal of the milk will
persist In running
down the outside.
To make easier
milking, have a
top made as shown
In the cut. The
flaring sides will
catch the stream
of milk and con
duct It Into the
pall. It will be
well to tie a piece
of muslin over the
MILK PAIL.
bottom of this top piece, thus straining
the milk as It goes In to the pail. Let
this flaring piece just fit Into the top of
the pall. American Agriculturist.
Seeding Clover.
There are customs which are rigidly
adhered to In the sowing or planting of
the staple crops. Clover Is usually
sown on the wheat land In the spring,
the seed being scattered over the
ground when It Is covered with snow la
order to facilitate the work. One of the
rigid rules Is to sow a certain quantity
of seed (as little as possible If seed Is
high), and should the stand be light
the cause Is ascribed to everything but
the seed. The fact Is that seed should
be use more liberally, as much of It Is
destroyed In various ways before germ
ination, the saving In seed causing a
loss of clover. Another point Is to har
row the wheat, seed down the clover
and then use a roller on the land. The
better the preparation for clover the
more seeds will germinate and the
more perfect the "catch."
Fertilizing.
But few farmers accumulate as much
manure as they desire. Instead of
spreading the manure over too much
land, It will be better to use only one
half of the farm for crops and grow
green material on the other half to be
turned under. In this manner It will
not be many years before every acre
will double Its evarage yield, and the
profits will be larger because the ex
penses will be correspondingly re
duced. Bhnbarb.
One of the garden crops that thor
oughly understands how to take care
of Itself Is rhubarb. If planted In earth
that Is not very dry, It will continue for
many years without receiving any par
ticular attention. It Is, however, very
fond of high living, and those who de
sire to have large and succulent stalks
should give a good top-dressing of man
ure every season. Meehan'i Monthly.
Lima Beans.
Pole varieties are preferred by those
who grow Lima beans for market, as
there are "old standards" that are fa
vorites. The bush Llmas are probably
to be preferred, as they may be planted
In rows and be easily worked. They
require no supports, and are usually
earlier than the pole varieties, and are
fully equal In quality to the others.
They make a valuable addition to the
garden crop.

How Are You
This Spring?
Tired, nervous?
Can't get rested?
Tortured witli bolls, humors?
That Is not strange. Impurities have been
accumulating in your blood during winter and
It has become impoverished. This is the ex
perience of most people. Therefore they take
Hood's Sarsaparilla to purify their blood in
spring.
I. M. White, Salem, Or., says:
"The members of our family have de
rived much benefit from the use of
Hood's Sarsaparilla. My father was
severely troubled with humor, but it
readily yielded to Hood's Sarsaparilla."
Thomas A. Coleman, Davidson, Or.:
"Four or five years ago I had sores
on my feet so that I was unable to wear
shoes. I saw Hood's Sarsaparilla ad
vertised tooure scrofula, and I procured
two bottles. By the time I had taken

Swallowing; His Words.
"While I was at Moscow," writes a
traveler, whose words are reproduced
by the Detroit Free Press, "a volume
was published in favor of the liberty of
people. In this book the iniquitous
conduct of the publio functionaries,
and even of the sovereign, were cen
sured severely. The book created in
dignation, and the offender was at once
taken into custody. After being tried
in a summary way, he was condemned
to eat his own words. A scaffold was
erected in a public square, the imperial
provost, the magistrates and the physi
cians of the czar attending, the book
was separated from the binding, and
the margin cut off. The author was
then served, leaf by leaf, by the pro
vost, and was obliged to swallow this
unpalatable Btuff on pain of the knout,
more feared in Russia than death. As
soon as the medioal gentlemen were of
the opinion that be had eaten as much
as he could with safety, the transgressor
was returned to prison. This punish
ment was renewed the following days,
until after several hearty meals, every
leaf of the book was actually swal
lowed." IT WILL PAT.
It will nav to carefully read the rlesr.rlrt-
tive advertisement of Alabastine appearing
In this paper; explaining the ainerenca be'
tween those coeds and kulsomines.
Consumers should bear in mind, that
Alabastine is unlike all the various knlso'
mines sold on the market under different
names. Alabastine stands pre-eminent
and alone as a durable wall coatincr. and
all consumers in buying should see that
the goods are in packages and properly
labeled.
Captain Cuttln in Safety.
Many are the prayers that are
breathed for those that have gone forth
to brave the dangers of the open ocean,
remarks a writer in The Illustrated
American, yet catastrophes on record
have occurred in still water within
sight, almost within touch of land.
The Episcopal prayer book contains a
formula of prayer for those at sea,
which may perhaps include those that
are upon the waters of rivers or an
chored in harbors. The horrors that
have ocourred within close range of
land make more grewsomo than humor
ous the remark of Captain Cuttle, who,
when in a stress of weather, under
close-reefed foresails, with the hatches
battered down, used to retire to his
cabin and murmur as he sipped his
grog, "God help the poor creatures on
shore tonight 1"

Work in the Patent Office.
In 1897 there were received 45,661
applications for patents, and in addi
tion a large number of applications for
designs, trade-marks, eto. Patents
granted numbered 23,729, including
designs; 65 patents were reissued, 1,671
trade-marks registered and 14 labels
and 16 prints. The number of patents
that expired was 12,926. The total ex
penditures, $1,22,843; the receipts over
expenditures, $252,798. Thetotal bal
ance to the credit of the patent office in
the treasury of the United States Jan
uary 1, 1898, was $4,970,438.
In proportion to population more
patents were issued to citizens of Con
necticut than to those of any other state
one to every 786 inhabitants. Next
in order are the following: Massachu
setts, District of Columbia, New Jer
sey, Rhode Island, New York.
To residents of England 706 patents
were issued; to residents of Germany,
551: Canada, 286, and France, 22.
The number of applications received
for examination during the year was
greater than for any other in the his
tory of the office. Applications await
ing action December 28 last numbered
11,382, due to the inadequacy of the
office force. For the 10 years begin
ning in 1840 the average number of
application was 1,186, and for the eight
years beginning with 1890 it has grown
to 41,479 per year.

With the bloom and beauty of the season,
Its balmy airs and delightful temperature,
we feel like living with new life, and are
therefore often very careless in taking care
of ourselves. It is this forgetfulness that
lays us liable to attacks of rheumatism, the
more liable because we think there is little
danger of its coming on, but rheumatism is
an easy thing to take and sometimes a hard
tiling to get rid ot unless wetake'tlie advice
of others and learn that the best way pou
siblc is to use St. Jacob's Oil. It has been
used so long as a sure cure that this advice
