WILLAMETTE FARMEK jzi Conductc-l by ilrs. Harriot T. Clarke. THE HIGHWAY COW. Tho lino of Iter iii'lo was a dusky liromi, Iter body wis loan nnil her nock was slim, Ono horn turned up and Iho other down) Sho was keen ot vision on I long of limb: Willi a Iloman noso and a short stump tail, And riba liko tho ribs u a liomo-mtulo pail. Mnny, mark did her old Iw'y wear j Slio had been a target fov all things lcnowm On many a scar tho dusky hair Would glow no more where oncclthail grown i Jinny a pasoinp parting shot Had lett upon her it lasting spot. ; Many and many ri well-aimed stone. Many a brickbat ol goodly iho, And many a cudgel, swiftly thrown, Had brought tho tears to her bovino eyes, Or ha l bounded off from her bony back, With a nolso Ilka tho sound of a rlllo crack. Manya ihy had alio pasiod in tho pound, I'or holping herself to her neighbor's earn j Many a cowardly our and hound Had been transfixed onhor crumpled hornt Many a tea-pot ntid old tin pall Had tlit) farmocboys Hod to her time-worn tail. Old Dsauon Oray wai a pious man, ("Though somotimca temptod to ba profano, When many a weary inilo ho ran, To drive lisr out of his gnw ing grain. Sharp pranks sho used to play To gut lier 1111 ami to got away. Sho know when tho deaoo:t went In town, Ska wisely watohod him whon ho went by t Ho novcr pined her without a frown And au evil nlcatn in each nngry cyo; Ho would crack his whip in a surly way. And drivo alon in his "ono-horsoshay." Thon at his homcutca t sho loved to call, Lifting hla bara with lur crumpled horn; Nimbly 80III113 Mi garden wall, Helping homlf to lif.t standing corn, Jlatlug liU cahbago oni by one, Hurrying lionu wlion licr work wai done. Often fio deacon homownrd camo, Humming a hymn from tho housoof prayer; His hopeful heart in ft tmniimi frame, His soul was ns calm ai thu evening air, His forehead as smooth 0,1 a well-worn plow. To find in his garden that liijhvvay cow. His human passions wcro ipilok to rise, Ami striding forth with savngocry, With fury blazing from both his eyes, As lightning llash In n summer sly ; Kcddcr anil redder his faco would isrovi-, And after tho croaturu ho would go. Oror tho garden round and round, s- llrcaklui: his pear and npnlo trccj; Tramping his melons into thu ground. Overturning his hives of bees; Leaving him nngry and badly stniip, Wishing tho old cow's neck was w rung. Tho mosses grow on tho garden wall, The years went by with thulr work and play, Tim l,nv ( tho villa crow strous and tall, And thu gray-hairoil farmers iiasted away j i;no ly ono as 11:0 rou leaves tai', Hut tho highway cow outlived them nil. All c.irthk- creatures mutt bavo their day. And somo must have their niouthsaud years; Homo in dying will long ilclay. Thero is a climax .to all careers, And tho highway cow at last was elaln In running a racu with a railway train. And intn niores at last sho wcr.t. Just liko tho savings banks when they fall ; Out of tlio v.-orlil slia wai tunny icur, Little was loft but her old stumpy tail.

I liko to tuko my rat In writing for tho sisters of thu Homo Circlo, not that I enn wrlto ovory iluy.but as I llntJ tlmo. liko to kIvo a Ilttlo of our iluily life wliicli, Js very homo-spun n& pcrtitiiw, soiuo forlorn sister, "dcoinj; may tnko heart iignln." Wo Imvo got nil tho moat taken caro ol nrnl imtuwny, bul,T wns IiiJn hurry for ft Utile lmm, so I smugi'loc) aeouniouut of tho hrine, binoklnj; thorn In nn old barrel, while little Harry kept up thoHinoko for mo nnu wo liail ono cut for breakfast this morning. Mm. Uruco and family camo yosloniay to visit us. Sho U so sonslblo and practical that wo always loam something from her that helps. Slios.ilil bho foundbovoral Cochin liens lately dead undor tho roost; scorned to bo r.othiop; tho matter of thorn cither. 1 told iter that I thought por haps the roosts wcro too high and that they wcro Injured in fulling as they aro too heavy to fly up and down. Largo fowls should roost near tho ground. Glio s.iys sho is gc Ing to sot somo Light rirahmasnnd Whitu Leg horns for early chickens as they feathor out best nnd thon yellow leg ged chickens will eoll tho best. Sho also says that tho common bum yard fowl makes tho best mothers. Sho gavo mo her recipe for n hasty pud ding which wo had for dinner; It Is simple, cheap nnd quickly made. Hasly Pudding Place on thostovo a pan cont lining six teacupsful of sweet milk. Heat two eggs well, and add one teacupful of milk; six table spoonsful oriluiriir.il a Ilttlo salt; beat well togot her then stir it in tho milk on thostovejustbofore.oraslt bogins to boll. Whon as thick as muili put in greased cups to mold. Make- in morning nnd cut with sweetened cream lor dinner, It is oxcclleut. After dinner tho gentlemen went out togother to comparo notes while see and I sat down for a comfortablo chat before tho fire. My Mary and hor Ituth aro or tho samo ago nnd they very cheorfully shut tho kitchen door nnd "did up" tho dishes and their visiting at tho same time. I make It a point to do most of tho work when Mary has company and vica versa, so wo aro quite happy in this arrangement. Wa had but Just got sottled down comfortably when . xi- it'. Ilttlo Rob came .rushing Into the rjom wldi a cut anger. Ho was screaming at tho sight of Wood, 'itio mlt gjonw Mxck. cut wns deep, but a lilllo pasto made of Hour nu'TsaltEoon stopped tho flow. It wns soon bandaged and ho wns oil' ngnln whistling and happy. When blood Ppurls out it Is an ovldunco that an urtory Is severed. In Huchacaso tlo a iiandkrchlef nhovo tho wound, put a slick in it and twist it tight till tho flow Is stopped, and keep It thus until tho doctor arrives. It Is well to havo n Ilttlo knowlcdgo in a caso of emergency. Sealed once moro in quiot.I brought out the mending basket, to "improve each shining hour," as I was taught when a ilttlo girl, In tho verses I learned about tho busy boos. Tho verses aro long ngo out of fashion ns well ns tho sentiment. Thero wns another lino about, "Satan finds somo mischief still for kilo hands to do." I found aeouplo of pair of kid gloves to mend out at tho fingers and torn. Any young lady who wears such gloves twice Is a sloven. Mrs. I), gave mo hor way 01" mending Ilium to bullonhnlu stitch all around closo with lino silk, then catch tho threads rathur loosely, and they will not glvo way again. It pays to got get good gloves In tho start. Neat gloves nnd nunt shoes mark a lady of taste. Yet, I uin nwaro that wo can't always indulgo in nlco nrtlclos when tho purso Is short, but a lady can al ways bo neat. Anothor Horn I must glvo for tho girls beforo I forget It : I'hpro Is nothing bettor to clo mso tho skin (han hot water with .a Ilttlo sal or.itUH dissolved in It. then wash in clenr water and rub tho skin dry. Do not go out into tho air Immediately after, for It Is apt to cause freckles anil tan; w 11 is uesi 10 uso 11 oeioro going to bud. Aunt IIktty. OUIt YOUXG l'OLKB. Tho number of communications (hut wo get every wcel: tells us hotter limn In words, that Aunt Ilotty's of forts to Interest tho dear Ilttlo girls and boys lins opened hearts that havo found utlernuco in those interesting lotturs. Wo hvo to fllo them awny and then print as' many ns wo can each weuk, taking thorn according to tho ditto. Our heart warms towards all thcho children nnd should liko to seo all tlie.su bright Ilttlo f.icoj which wolcomo tho Homo Circle; wo know that they will sometime bo grown up and wo want to imvo thorn keep on Improving and learning, no becomo good earnest men and women work iug always fin what Is honest and right. Ono of tho things most necessary to cultlvato in tho youthful character is courtesy 1 nud 11 gracious demeanor to othcts. Take back tno busty Mpooch that springs to tho lips in anger. It as Juft as easy to say what you havo to say In a pleasant tot.o as to snap it out in 11 cross way. Ono cross word In a family will find a cross reply, and soon till every body will speak dis agreeably, which a pleasant cheerful word will mako sunshlno all through tho family. Its Just as easy to say " Pleaso will you," and how much moro quickly will tho favor bo grant ed. I guess all chlldrou liko to go where- they muot courteous people, and tho Imprnsslon lolt on tho mind will novcr bo forgotten, for children aro very sensitive as well as observ ing; especially Is It necessary for girls to do gcntlo, forbearing and kind, for wo look to mothers, wlvusand sisters to make homo o nlousuut that tho father, husbands and brothers will think that Homo is tho bust pla?o on oirtli. GUItAP LOOK. Almost every family havo congres sional documents lylug uuuut the house. They coutaiu somotlmcs very good reading matter, yot they aro generally considered good for noth ing. Thero Is ono good uso they can bo put to and that is, for Ilttlo girls and boys to mako scrap books of. If every other leaf is cut out It will about keep tho book in simpo after tho scraps aro pustud In, IJy clipping ovory old paper or book, it collection is soon made of very interesting mattor, nnd then when grown up it will bo pleas- unt to look It over again. Wo havo somo such in our homo and they aro precious to us. Tho pasto must bo mado of (lour, cooked n little and rather thin. An old tooth brush is convenient to put tho pasto outo tho scraps, Ho suro and got them in straight and smoath. Whon a page U full press it dry with a warm Iron, placing a piece of cloth or paper be tween so as to keep tho book clean and the scraps from curling up or sticking to tho iron. It Is a nlco way to spond long evening. A low pages pasted overv week will soon till a book. All tho Ilttlo brothers and sisters can help to do it, bomo cutting and trimming, somo pressing and somo looking on. it will servo to keen the little ones quiet und so glvo dear tired mother u rest aim Happiness to sou mu eiumren oiiioloved in a way that will Improve andelevrtto tho children. Aunt Het ty is pleased to imvo so many nine frlnniU tell of uittkimr scrati books, and would bo glad to help, if sho was only near enough to glvo each somo nlco pieces and pictures, for pictures add very much to tho Interest of a scrap book. Wo have ono that has mo lasnions nnu btyiea 01 mu y ladles dressed forty years ago, and it is very amusing to look ut It now. pQr TtE QrlLD. "Iktwccn tho dark and the daylight When tho night is beginning to lower, Comes a pauso In tho day's occupation That is called tho children's hour." YOUIH. n. sTcnsr O youth, sweet youth! never so dear to mo As now whom I shall miss thy company. Must thou ro soon, then, go hasto thecawny? It is not lour;; but n brief Summer day. Which quickly sped, mcthlnks, that thou and I . . i , Together walked "neath bright or softibro sky. Our path mado ever gay l-v hopo ami joy; Thy beauteous, whito-vinged doves, that .tarno, yut coy, riuttercd and played around us ceaselessly, Perched nu thy hand or shoulder lovinglyi Then In tho bluo nbovo would soar nud dip, And then return to feed from out thy lip. Thou wast a gravo companion passing fair Thy blow and eyes, but thysvnet smilo too rare. And unto me, perchance, thou'st scarcely proved Too kind nnd fond a friend! Hast thou not moved My eager soul wish promises, that brought How many a golden dream and happy thought, Yet novcr know fulfillment all to vain In air had vanished when I looked again! Uut yet what couldst thou more! wheroforo chido thee? Didst thou not give mo nil thou hadst for mc? And now tho hour haneomo for us to part, I du remember with a bleeding heart. Thou canst not oven leavo thy birds, to bless My eotituilo with timid tenderness. How dirk shall bo tho path where I must go Alouo henceforward, only (tod may know! Kits mo onco more, swcot, cno last long em brace, Ono linggriug look upon thy fading faco, And then farowcll nor cast ouo glanco bo hind, I cannot sec, my eyes with tears aro blind.

Ono Ilttlo girl from East of Iho mountains has taken our hint nnd tills weok tells us somo ol hcroxpcrlenco in tho Turkoy business, which agrees with ours. Wo can sympathi.o too with tho way tho family feel about killing them nfter they got big. Wo liko to hear tho girls and boys tell of Ihoir pots. If domestic uulina's aro kindly treated they appreciate It, and Oods blessing follows tli'oso who aro kind to his dumb creatures. Tun:r.it, Jan. 28th.

When tho turkeys aro young I feed thorn on bread and milk, with a good deal of rod popporund onion tops, cut up vory flno, which I mix with hard boiled eggs. Wo set n lion on somo turkey eggs last summer nnd sho hatched eleven. Wo put hor In a coop, but sho would step on them and killed thorn. Tho others sold fur llvo dollars a pair. Papa was very fond of them. Ho would tako somo bread and sit In tho door and they would como and cut out of his hand. They mado a very protty picture. Wo did not havo any for Christmas or Now Year, for wo could not bear to kill them, nnd wo still havo three. I would liko to havo somo ono who has raised turkey tell mo somothlnir about it.
