Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry, has undertaken to educate the farmers regarding the manufacture of denatured alcohol. Two bulletins on the subject have been Is sued. ' From Dr. Wiley's discussion of the subject the conclusion is reached that the manufacture of alcohol on a very small scale la not likely to prove prof itable, and because of revenue regula tions It Is evident that the farmer must be content with producing the raw ma terials. The bulletin on the subject of sources and manufacture says: "The principal uses of industrial al cohol are Illumination, heating, motive power and the manufacture of lacquers, varnishes, smokeless powder, medicinal and pharmaceutical preparations, vine gar and ether. When Industrial alco hol Is made at a price at which It can compete with petroleum and gasoline, it doubtless will be preferred for the purposes above mentioned, because of its greater safety and more pleasant odor. Under the present conditions It Is not probable that Industrial alcohol can be offered upon the market at much leas than 40 cents a gallon of 1)3 per cent strength." Dr. Wiley expresses the belief, how ever, that by paying attention to un used sources of raw material and with Improved methods of manufacturing and denaturing this price can be di minished. , Ginseng la Missouri. According to the Missouri experiment station bulletin, the cultivation of gin seng for the Chinese market has be come an Important industry in that State, notwithstanding the fact that it takes five or six years to mature a crop. While the crop '.a exceptionally valu able, the cultivation of ginseng baa been found to possess disadvantages the same as most other cultivated crops. It appears that several fungus diseases have broken out in the gin seng plantations, some of which are extremely serious and infectious, large areas often being destroyed in a sin gle week. However, the particular or ganisms causing the damage have been recognized and methods for keeping the diseases under control have now been worked out Cattle Lice. Lice on cattle Indicate lack of atten tion and por feed- Grease of any kind will destroy lice on cattle, but grease should not be used If It can be avoided. First wash the animal with kerosene, emulsion, and follow with clear water. When the skin Is dry dust every portion of the body with a mixture of a peck of carbonate of lime and a bushel of clean, dry dirt If a single animal Is infested with lice, the others will soon be In the same condi tion unless remedies are used as preventives, Oalaa Urmrtif.

Suggestions are Included for making hotbed. Ta Oaloa Mamrot. The onion maggot and cabbage mag got can only be distinguished hy an expert, as they are very nearly alike. The maggot Is the larva of a small fly. There 1 uo known "ure" remedy that can be applied. Sprinkling powdered sulphur around the plant la a partial remedy, but It doe not always bring relief. Making a small hole near each onion and pouring Into each hole half a teasjioonful of bisulphide of carbon, covering the hole with earth, I claim ed to be a remedy, but uch method I expensive and laborious. Liquid ma nure applied to the plants I claimed to be a remedy. The bent preventive Is to grow the onions on land that has not before produced a crop, but of course uch can not be doue until next season. This change of location of the onion patch Is the only partial solutbn of the maggot problem. Saa-arlaa; I'nn Support. For fence posts or upiorts that will not rot off' or break off, for picket or ulne-wlre, take two boards 2x0, cms at the top so a to leave a crotch for top wire. Fasten together with 8-ien-ny nails. Put a croiplece In the mid dle for middle wires, to rest on and fasten with staple and a crossplece at bottom for bottom wires to rest on und fasten with staple. Then anchor with a small stake on each side to prevent wind from tipping over, and yon have a good post for picket fence. Nail or wire post to the stake. This makes an excellent post for repairing an old picket fence. Farm Progress. Milk Cow.. The Hollanders evidently breed and feed for milk first of ail. That they succeed Is proved by the large milk yields of their cows. That large milk flow, seemingly regardless of butter-fat percentage, pays them Is proved by their prosjierlty. The dairyman bore thinks It necessary to pay small prices for dnlry cows that annually yield from 3,000 to 4,000 iwunils of milk. What the financial result to him In, the wretched records show only too plain ly. He Is the worst-paid farmer in the land. What could he not do If, Instead of breeding, buying, feeding and milk ing cheap cows, he wero to breed, feed and milk cows of the 11,500 to 14,500 pound class? The Frleslanders and other Hollanders, with their gigantic cows, make money on milk produced on soil that costs from $)0 to $2,000 an acre or rents at from $50 to $200. Polnta In Pruning. In pruning the trees all stems half an Inch or more In diameter should lie covered with some waterproof sub stance, like grafting wax or shellac of the consistency of cream. The bnrk and outer wood will thus be preserved, and the wound win In a season or so be covered with new bark. If this pre caution be not taken the end of the branch may decay from exposure to wind, rain, heat and cold. The EKK-Katlna; Hen. Some one wants to know how to keep hens from eating their eggs. Having had some exierlence along that line, I offer a few suggestions: A deep nest box, In which there Is only room for the lien's body, so thut she cannot get at the eggs when on the nest, and too deep for her to reach the eggs when standing on the edge of It, Is a good thing. The best nest box I have used Is 14 Inches square and 18 Inches deep, covered with a 0-Inch door or opening at the top of one side. BUPTOBTS FOB FENCE. Mr. 8lummer -Hoe your husband drink regularly!

QUEER WAY OF SMOKING. Wtit ladlaaa Pal Maht4 Km4 ml tr la Muala. Visitor to the West Indie and th Rpaiilsb main have often uotlcedthu.ua tlve negro carrying a thin, dark object, Ilk a very lung cigarette or slender ci gar, In hi mouth, and if the visitor, look huig enough they would see smoke Issuing occasionally from U'tween tlie full, red tlju of a buxom matrou or a dried up granny, says th New York Herald But eveu the most observant ciuild see no light on tlie end of th ci gar smoked by tha native of thu trop. 1c. That I nert to be wondered at, how ever, for the reason that It I tlie cus tom of th native In that part of the country to smoke with th lighted end inside tlie mouth. That I curious, of course, but uot a remarkaltl a It sounds. Most of the. women, wis) are all great smokers, work very bard. They coal slilj, load banana and do tlie kind of work usually done hy men. When on tiie docks, where tliey make hundred of trip a day from the ship to the coal yard or fruit car, there I generally a strong breeze blowing and It would be almost ImisiNslhle to keep a cigar lighted In tlie teeth of a stiff trade wind. Bvaldea, these bard toll era, who earn a few pence or a shilling a day, according to the amount of coaO or fruit they carry, could not afford to take the time to keep their tolmoeo lighted, no they hit Uon the scheme of protecting the light by keeping It In tlie mouth and thu enjoying a smoke without trouble or los of time. They have been doing this for so many years that the older one are expert and never burn their tongue or the Inside of their mouth and tlie younger wom en soon get the hang of It The cigar they smoke are usually made of native tobacco and fashioned very rudely.
