The Care of Horses -Feed for Breeding Sows Fruit Culturo Handsome ' Picture Frames Notes. . April and May aro the best months for hatching. Cooked rico, fed cold, is good for diar rhoea in chickens. Don't feed sulphur to young chickens it produces leg weakness. The newer the butter tho quicker the sale and the higher the price. The pigs should bo fed to secure as nearly all their droppings as iossible to tho manure heap or fields, and not to tho wash of the streams. Every woman should start a formid able rebellion against open setting of milk in pans; either in water or air, and against working butter threo times. Clover hay, cut up about an eighth of an inch, mixed with bran, and scalded, makes a capital breakfast for the fowls, and one that will tell wonderfully on the egg oasket. Manure the quince tree more frequently and heavier than any other; keep the soil loose with an annual dressing of coal ashes and salt, and give thorough, but shallow cultivation. A horse that is naturally courageous may be made cowardly by abuse. If he ofton receives blows the fear of them is uppermost, nnd any unknown noise is imagined to bo a coming hurt, to escape which is an uncontrollable impulse. The high winds shake young trees severely, and if tho ground is very wet the trees are liable to be blown over. A stako should be used tor holding voting trees until the summer season opens, or until the trees become firmly rooted. Old pasture fields are usually full of weeds which have crowded the grass out. To utilize such pastures turn sheep on them. The sheep will cat the young weeds as well as the grass, and greatly assist in destroying the pests. In the fall the sod can be turned under and rcsecded with less danger of tho weeds again appearing. Ilandsomo picture frames may be made at homo, by gluing ears of ryo or oats, tiny shells, beans or acorns, upon a simple wooden foundation. Then coat the frame and ornament with white paint. AVhen this is thoroughly dry, (over with metal paint, either gold or bronze, and if well arranged tho effect will be most satisfactory. Young bulls of tho improved breeds aro sold at a very low figure compared with their real value, anil farmers who have dairy herds can grade up their btock at a "very low cost by securing the males when tliey are young. Heifers are high, as they are in greater demand by those who do not object to paying good prices for superior stocK. It is common practice with many farmers to delay seeding till tho gronnil is settled and frosts are over, when, un less the season bo finite wot, the seed will not germinate; or, if it start, it is very liable to bo killed by drought in Juno, before tho germ has sufficient strength to resist it, hence a failure, which curly seeding would have avoided. Guineas do not usually commence laying until late, but after thoy once begin will lav very steadily." Like turkeys, they prefer to hide out their nests, and will need to be looked after if the eggs are secured fresh. As witl turkeys, ducks and geoso, the first eggs should be sot under hens. More eggs and moro poultry will bo secured if this plan is lollowed. The Delaware grape succeeds in nearlv all sections, but is not us hardy as tho Concord. The latter is the favorite market variety, but its sale is greatlv injured by the Ives' seedling, which is sent to market before it is ripo, thus creating a distrust against the Concord, which is roallv an excellent grape, but strongly resembling the Ives. The Clinton is an excellent late grape, and produces well in this section. It has boon found that a ton of huv absorbs in its growth thirty pounds of nitrogen, worth $4 K0; fortv pounds of potash. $2, mm tourtceu pounds ot pnos phnrio acid, worth $1 12.

It does not pay to sell hav at $8 per ton. Better feed where grown ami sell in the form of beef, pork, butter or milk. Plum cakes: Take ono cup of butter, two cups ol brown sugar, volks of three eggs, white of two eggs, half a cup of milk, halt a cup of dark molasses, hall a toaspoonfitl of soda, half a pound of raisins, stoned and chopped, halt a tea ipoonful of cream of tartar, half a pound of currants, two tablespm infills of any fruit syrup, four cups of Hour, two tea spoonfuls of mixed spices. If not dark enough, add a little molted chocolate. Bake in small tins, and frot part of thorn with tho remaining white ot egg. A correspondent makes inquiries re garding mulct and Hungarian grass. Thoy are very similar in appearance, but the millet grows higher and atlords hut ono cutting, while the Hunuarian grass can bo cut overy live weeks if the soil is rich, l hoy aro summer crops, nnd arc not usually sown until Mnv. Tho hav from millet and Hungarian grass is highly relished bv all classes of stock. and the yield is usually heavy. The ground should bo well manured, linrrowed tine and ten quarts of seed pornere sown, or oven more if a thick growth is lesirod. Food for brooding sows should be care fully prepared. There is no hotter food tor breeding sows than sKim milk with wheat bran. There is very little fat in either, yet such is tho appetite of u brooding sow that she will fatten rapidly if given all she can eat of oitiior of these'. But the pigs thus nourished loforu birth will bo strong ami vigorous, and what fat the sow has will not bo in any dan ger of making her nervous or feverish. If a supply of boots and mangel wurtiols have been provided they will be worth more than grain to food to breeding sows as to cooling diet for those disiKwd to lay on too much fat. No other kinds of root is oaten bv nigs of huv aire sogracdilv as aro boots and iiuuitfels. As a jwrt of me supply even mr I lie lutienuiK niumals they are almost iiidinpMihuble.

Three I'uinoin Women .Aforo Noted for In tellect TIiiiii llentity. Isn't it a bit odd that tho women who moro than any others havo con trolod tho fashions within tho past twenty-five years havo not been beau tiful women? Thoro aro threo of whom it may bo said that thoy gavo tho cuo to La Mode, and theso aro tho Princesso do Mottornich, Sara Bern hardt and tho Princess of Wules I raugo them as they have control.

Sara Bernhardt was never a beautiful wom an, at tho samo time, oven about her personal appearance, thero was some thing fascinating, and whon sho is acting tho firo of genius makes hor dull skin look warm and pink, hor al most colorless eyes burn brightly nnd hor rumpled hair seem an artistic ar rangement. Tho Princess of Walos, with her swcot, lady-liko. refined faco, is charming, but that is all. Tho Lon don papers can ravo as thoy will about hoc beauty an hour's walk in any largo city in tho United States will dis co vor a hundred girls hotter looking and with equal refinement of faco.
