favorable season for husking.
From a manuscript found In the
ruins of the city of Philadelphia, Egypt,
It is evident that the high cost of liv
ing and exorbitant freight rates were
live and stirring issues 1.800 years ago.
It is a very sensible Idea during the
winter mouths, when fires are kept go
in.? at a nrettv lively pace, to keep a
close watch ou the stovepipes and
flues to see that there Is no danger of
the house catching Ore from tnem.

cellence Is bad at the expense of milk
i, .n niiri nza of bird means a

Some Idea of the factor that the
Argentine Is coming to De in me
world s beef trade Is Indicated In the
figures, which show that the value of
her exports of dressed beef for the
year 1010 was $25,480,000. while the
exporU of the United States totaled
but $12,190,000.
At the New York land show there
was consiueraoie surprise utu
hibltors from New Jersey walked off
with the bulk of the best prizes Folks
hud somehow got the Idea into their
heads that about all that New Jersey
was good for ' was the incubation of
niosauitoes nud trusts. Such will nave
to revise their opinions.
Belgium has 104 head of cattle per
square tulle. ieumarK m, i"t;iutri
lands 135. while the United States has
but twenty-three head of cattle for the
same area. The ngures snow iue ex
tent that the cattle business might be
developed in this country were any
where the same number raised that are
to be fouud in the countries named.
The writer recalls with mixed pleas
ure and regret the days in the ran a
good many years ago when tne Darrei
of sorghum molasses was got from the
nearby caue mill nud stowed away In
the cellar. The taffy and molasses
cakes that the children had following
the arrival of this barrel will remain
very bright spots in the memory of
childhood days.
The advantage of keeping no hens
over a year lies In the fact that If the
pullets are hatched by the 1st of May
they will be laying before cold weather
sets in and with proper care keep at
It through the wluter, while the ben
that is in her second year seldom gets
through molting until late after a sum
mer's laying and usually takes more or
less of a layoff during the winter
months.
A new rat trap has lately been put
on the market thnt is quite different
from anything In this line heretofore
Invented. It is of good size. Is self
setting, and the rat is flipped Into the
cage at one side of the runway upon
putting Its foot on one of the two
little plates which are on cither side
of the depression which holds the bait
The trap Is relatively high priced, but
it looks as if it were a winner and well
worth the money.
Agricultural land Is considered worth
far too much In old world countries to
squander hundreds of thousands of
acres of It to the production of road
side weeds, as Is the practice followed
In this country. In many sections of
Ernuee the fences are done away with,
and no more land is set opart for a
road than Is actually needed for It,
and this road Is a road and not a con
tinous mudhole or streak of sand,
which Is too often the condition of
many of our so called roads.
A friend who has recently returned
from one of the northwestern Canadian
provinces tella of seeing thousands of
acres of wheat that was burned over
without any attempt being made to cut
It. In some cases this wheat did not
get ripe; In others It was ripe enough,
but no help could be got at the right
season to cut it. This Is a feature of
the Cnnndlnn wheat growing situation
that any farmer who Is under the stars
and stripes would do well to look Into
thoroughly before he pulls np slakes
and moves to the Canadian northwest

Carrots make an excellent ration for

A cheap as well as effective dope for
rats may be made by making a flour
or cornmeal porridge and Just before
it Is done stirring in one part or barytes
(barium sulphate) to eight or nine parts
of the material used. The poison acts
slowly, and after eating It the rats usu
ally leave their runs In search of water.
A simnle way to ventilate the sleep

window down from the top ana iasieu
a piece of muslin over the opening.
Rv tacking the muslin to the upper

During changeable weather fowls are
apt to contract colds, which, if left un
attended to, may develop into roup.
The affected fowls may be noticed by
their sneezing, also by having their
nostrils gummed up. The first thing to
do Is to clean out their nostrils, then
dip their heads In a brine of salt and
water or pure cider vinegar and then
anoint their heads with a soothing oil
or ointment.
That Is surely a very commendable
ncries of rivalry which Is being in

H-nnrtment in its activity In furnish

likely that others will follow.
What seems to be a new world's
nnmhnsklne record was made recently
by J. II. Alldredge of Leon, la., who Is
also champion wrestler of the southern
nart of the state. He husked in ten
hmir 282 bushels, the corn being care
fully welched by Judges. Alldredge's
speed as a busker Is said to be in part
due to the great strengin oi u n.
which enables him to pick an ear and
husk It In practically one motion.
The annual congressional free seed
fiasco is to be pulled off as usual In
the coming weeks. An army or cierts
Is at present encaged In the work of
dividing COO tons of garden and flower
seeds of a very mediocre quality into
00,000,000 separate packets prepara
tory to distribution with the opening
of the new year. It Is to De nopeu
that the administration that was in
dorsed ou Nov. 5 will put an end to
this wanton waste of public money.
While the cultivation and exportation
of flower bulbs have been carried on in
Holland since 1750, the present volume
of trade has been the growth of the
past thirty years. About $4,000,000
worth of bulbs are now exponea an
nually, being produced by some 3.000
growers who are organized Into a fed
eration. A paper Is published by the
federation, there are Judges to pass on
new varieties, while a council, named
for the purpose, settles all disputes
arising among members.
If the tireless cooker did no other
cooking well it would be entitled to a
place In every up to date kitchen sim
ply for the way in which it will cook
oatmeal. The cereal is put on the stove
In a double boiler at supper time and
cooked ten or fifteen minutes. It is
then removed at once from the stove
and placed in one of the compartments
In the cooker and the cover slipped on.
In the morning it Is perfectly cooked,
being tender und toothsome and the
kernels of the grain keeping their
shape nicely.
At the International live stock show
held recently at Chicago the world's
championship for the best beef steer
was awarded to Glenmaruock Victor,
a twoyenr-old grnde Angus steer be

Manitoba. The winner was fattened
on a ration consisting of barley, oats
and hay and did not receive a mouth
