Jfarm Bote- Why Not Co-Operate? The Potaluma Courier has an article showing that the agricultural producer does not get his just proportion of the price paid by the consumor for his prod ucts and thinks, in view of the years that have been spent in talking of co operation that It Is time something were done. The Courier is right. But "what Is everybody's business Is nobody's business" and each farmer is waiting for some other man to make a move. When, as shown by the Courier, the price of cattlo to the grower declines from $ 34 75 a had to $18 04, and there is no reduc tion in the price the consumer pays for meat, something must be awry. The San Francisco Visitor is sure this evil Is not without a possible nmedy The box of applos for which the fruit grower gets 25 cents sells readily in San Francisco for $1 oi$l 50, and when eggs are retailed at 45 cunts a dossun, and good ones are hard to got, the farmer 100 miles away Is glad tc get 25 or 30. The remedy lies In the establishment of a market In 8 vn Francisco where the pro ducer and consumer can come practically face to face. The only requisites In the manager or agent in charge of such a market would bo a common degree of ordinary horso sense, a practical knowl edge of tho.commln.-sion business and honesty. Aud the groutest of these is honesty. If a large building were leased, say In the Western Addition or the Mission, where rents are not too high, and if all the mombors of an organization of farm ers wore to commence consigning their produce to it, and tho fact were properly advertised to the purchasers In Ban Frauclseo that the best meat, fruit, vegetables, butter, etc., could be had there for about half what retailors now charge, which would still leave a margin after paying all the exponsos and an in creased price to the farmer, the market would be thronged. Aud an army of commission men would go to work for a living. To Kill Foxtail. " Muntioii has been nrtdo," says the S.in Frauclseo Chronicle, " of the loss caused in many localities ,by the prev alence of wlrtHs known as foxtail grass together with methods which might be adopted to prevent the further spread of this nuisance. The alfalfa growers of Tulare aud Kern counties have in nu merous cases been greatly troubled by tlii) growth of tho obnoxious grass, aud they are reported to be udopting one of the ideas suggested here for putting an end thereto. The foxtail comes up early 1 in the spring, and Is nearly mature at the. time the llrut alfalfa crop Is ready to out. The conclusion reached from this stAteof facts is simple. The alfalfa is out with the foxtail grass, and when It Is all well cured It Is hauled to one side and burned up, thus effectually prevents lug the eoeds from belug spreud and thus ciuming still further trouble. Ho generally Is this plan beiug adopted that the Tu lure Heyintrr says that in all direc tions in that county clouds of smoke by day aud pillars of Ure by night show where the destruction of alfalfa aud fox laU Is going ou by wholesale. 'If tliu-ie wuo are adopting this heroic remedy will do one thing more they will have little trouble In the future. The foxtail grows invariably In spots where the alfalfa has uHluir died out or did not for Some rousou make a perfect stand at the start. These spots seem to Increase In size from year to year. After the crop has been cut anil burned as has thus been described It will not require any great amount of labor to lightly plow the patches of foxtail and reseed them with Alfalfa. If this Is not done It will prove of si'iint usefulness to simply cut aud remove the obnoxious grass. More or less of it will be almost certain to mature and scatter the seed, aud in time the alfalfa may become choked out, though it would be a very dilll mtt matter to en tirely destroy a Held of that grass. How ever, since whatever Is worth doing at all Is wort'i doing well, it is certainly worth while taking every precaution to make as nearly parfoet a Held of alfulfa as possible while about It." Poultry Lloe. A correspondent of an exchange gives the following simple method of getting rid of poultry lice: "lluch Is written about whltu-w.tshlug aud using koroseue for the destruction of lice, aud keeping houses five from foul odors. I have kept from 5J0 to 1,000 fowls for several years, aud have never used a spoonful of kerosene or a gill of whitewash lu theso housws, and have not seeu a louse for yours, anil think one cannot be found on my promises, uud I know some who have small lots of fowls aud use all pre ventives rejomiueuded by fancy poultry keepers, and they are always troubled with them ; but they are like the leper who was directed to go and wash lu the river Jordan they think my plan too simple. All I ever do for deodorizing or for destruction of vermin is to use pleuty of eoal or wood ashes, land pluster or Btr-slacked lime sown ou or uuder the roosts, and thrown into every crack oa place of ludgemeut of tho parasites at leuMt once a month at ail seasons of the year, which not only has the desired ef fect, but increases the value of the manure. With good management ducks van be made profitable. Where young roosters can bo sold at a fair price tho sooner they are disposed of the better. A large Mock of hens do not thrive as well as a mnaller flock, owing to crowd lug and competition. In the spring the early chickens sell the best, and for this reasou full hatch lug is the most prolltuble. A few fowls of the best quality In with a lot of mixed fowls will add nothing to the mm kot value of the rust.

THE HOWSEU'S AGAIN. SOME PRACTICAL LESSONS IN HOUSE HOLD ECONOMY, Ths Master of the House Finds Out for Himself That Women Are Not the Only Cureless People. n returning from 8 trip down town the other week I left my shopping bag In the car and when I men tioned the fact to Mr. Bowser and ask- 4 ed him to call at the street railway office and get it, be re plied: "No, ma'am, 1 wont I Anybody careless enough toleavf an article of value In a street-cnr dc serves to lose it. Besides, you did not take the number of the car, and the; would only laugh at me at the office." "Do you take the number of every strcct-cur you ride in?" 1 asked. "Certainly, .hvery sensible person does. Day before yesterday I came up in No. 70. I went lack In No. 44. 1 came up to supper in No. 66. Yesterday I made my trips in Nob. 55, 61, and 88. To-dny in Nos. 83, 77 and 15. The street railways contract to carry passengers not to act as guardians for children and imbeciles." "Mr. Bowser, other people have lost articles on the street earn." "Yes other women. You never heard of a man losing anything." I let the matter drop there, knowing that time would sooner or, later bring my re venire. It came sooner than I ex pected. Mr. Bowser took his dress coat down to a tailor to get a couple of new buttons sewed on, and as he returned without It, 1 observed: "You are always finding fault with the procrastinations of my dressmaker. Your tailor doesn't seem to be in any particular hurry?" "How?" "Why, you were to bring that coat back with you." "That coatl Thunderl" Mr. BowBcr turned pale and sprang out of his chair. "Didn't lose it going down, did you?" "I I believe I II" "You left It in the street car when you came up?" "Yes." "Mr. Bowser, anybody careless enough to leave an article of value In a street car deserves to lose It. However, you took the number of the car, I presume?" 'U nor "You didn'tl That shows what sort of a person you are. Y'esterday when I went down niter baby a Bhoes I took car Ho. ill. When 1 returned I took car 80. When I went over to mother's I took car 56. The conductor had red hair. One horse was brown and the other blnck. The driver had a cast in hia left eye. There were four women und five men in tho ciir. Wo passed two "it's gone!" loads of Hshes, one of dirt and nil icc wiigon. The conductor wore No. 8 shoes aud was near lighted. Tho street rail ways contract to carry passengers, Mr. Bowser, not to act as guardiiius for sap bends and children." "But HI get it at the olllco to-morrow." lie slowly replied. "Perhaps, but it is doubtful. As you can't remember the number of the car, they will laugh at the idea, aud perhaps take you for au impostor." He glared nt mo like a catred animal ami made no reply, and I confess that I almost hoped ho would never recover the coat. Ho did, however, after a couple of days, and as ho brought it home ho looked at me with great im portance uud Buid: 'There is the difference, Mrs. Bowser. Hud you lost anything on the car it would have been lust forever. The street cur people wcro even sending out messengers to flud me and restore my property." One day a laboring man railed at the side door and asked for the loan of a spado for a few minutes, saying, that he was at work near by; and he was ao re spectful that I hastened to accommodate him. Two days later Mr. Bowser, who was working in the back yard, wanted the apude, and I had to tell him that I lent it. As it was not to be found, the natural interference was that tho bor rower had not returned It. "This Is a pretty stuto of affairs!" ex claimed Mr. Bowser when he hud given u u the search. The longer some folks live tho less they seem to know." "Hut ho looked houost." "What of It? You bad no business to lend that spade." "1 was suro he'd return It." "Well, he didn't, and anybody of sense would have known he wouldn't. If somebody would como here aud ask for the piano, I suppose you'd let It go. Mia. Bowser, you'll never get over your countrified ways if you live to bo as old as the hills. It Isn't the loss of the spade ao much, but it is the fact that the man thinks you are so green." In the course of an hour I found the spado at tho side stops, whore the mil a hud left It after usiug. but wheu I In formed Mr. Bowser of the fact he ouly growled: "Ho brought it back became he prob ably heard me making a fusi about It ami was afraid of arrest." Two days litter, as Mr. Bowser sat on the frout steps, a colored man came up and asked to borrow the lawn-mower for a few miuutct for use on the next corner. "Certainly, my boy," replied Mr. Bowser, "you'll Hud it lu the back yard." When he had gone I observe . that the man had a suspicious look about him aud that I should not dare trust him, aud Mr. Bowser turned on me with: "Wbutdovou know about reading character? There never waa a more honest muu in the world. I'd trust him with every dollar I have." In about halt an hour Mr. Bowser be gan to set uueaay. and after waiting a few minutes longer ha walked down to the comer. No black man. No lawn niowor. By Inquiry he learned that the borrower hiul loaded Uie mower Into mi m i?n trtm .m ti i "CERTAINLY. MY BOY. band-cart and hurried on. It was a clear case of confidence. "Well?" I queried, as Mr. Bowser came back with his eyes bulging out and his huir on end. "It's it's gone!" he gasped. "I expected it. The longer some folks live the less they Bccm to know. If somebody should come und wunt to bor row the furnace or the bay windows you'd let 'era go, I suppose." "But he he" "But what of it? You had no busi ness to lend that lawn-mower, Mr. Bow ser. You'll never get over your count ri fled ways if you live" He would listen no further. Ha rush ed out ami sailed around the nuigfiCor hood for two hours, and next morning got the police nt work, aud it was three days beforo ho would givo up that he had been "hornwogifled," as one of the detectives put in. Then, to udd to his misery, the officer said: "We'll keep our eyes open, but there isn't one chance in fivo hundred. After this yqu'd better let your wife have charge of things. That darkey couldn't have bamboozled her that way." J) troit Free J'reim. A MODERN NOVELIST. The Heroine or "A Little Journey An The World" meets a Voting Novelist. There was a younjr novelist present whose first story, "The (iirl I Left Be hind Me," had iniule a hit the last sea son. It was thouirlit to take a pro found hold upon life, because it was a book Unit could not lie read aloud in. a mixed company. Margaret was very much interested in him. iilllioujrh Mr. Summers Hass was not her idea of an imaginative writer. lie was a stout yoniiff jriinllciiiiin, wit'1 v,,,'y black huir ami small black eyes, to which it was ililiicnlt lo jive a melancholy cast even by a habitual frown. Mr. Bass dressed himself scrupulously in the l'mhion, was very exact in his pronun ciation, cnreful about his manner, and had the nir of a little weariness, of the responsibility of one looking at life. It was only at rare moments that his face expressed intensity of feeling. "It is a very pretty ssene. I sup pose, Mr. Bass, that you are making studies," said Margaret, by way of opening a conversation. "No; hardly that. One must al ways observe. It gets to bo a habit. The tiling is to sou reality under ap pearances." "Then you would call yourself a re alist?" . , v.. Mr. Bass smil ...1 T llTl,.,( io r J. - term. Mrs. Henderson.

"Pardon me, Mrs. Henderson, that Is because you ate used to the conven tional, the selected. Nature is always interesting." "I do not find it so." "No? Nature has been covered up. It has been idealized. Look yonder," and Mr. Bass pointed across the lawn. "See that young woman upon whom the sunlight falls standing waiting her turn. Sec the quivering of the .eyelids, the heaving of tho chest, the opening lips; note the curve of her waist from the shoulder, and the line rounding in to the fall of the folds of the Austrian cashmere.

"But suppose, Mr. llass, wluyi you Come to 'peak with her, you liud that she has no ideas, and talks slang." "All the better. It shows what we are, what our society is. And besides, Mrs. Hcndersou, nearly everybody has the capacity of being wicked; that is to say, of expressing emotion." "You take a gloomv vicw.Mr. Bass." "I take no view, ill's. Henderson. My ambition is to record. It will not help matters by protending that people are better than they are-" "Well, Mr. Buss, you may b light, but I am not going to let you spoil my enjoyment of this lovely scene," said Margaret, moving away. Mr. Bass watched her until she dis appeared, and then entered in his note book a phrase for future use "The prosperous propriety of a pretty pluto crat." He was gathering inatcrals for his forth-coining book, "The Lust Sigh of the l'riide." Vhurlc Dudley It arncr, in Harper's Magazine. The Value of a I. lie.

A PECULIAR PEOPLE. What Was Observed on a Visit to a Danker Town in Pennsylvania. Some fifteen miles from Lancaster by turnpike and twenty by rail lies the little village of Kpliruta. It is a very secluded, sleepy-looking little place, in spite of the railroad that runs through it, shut in by surrounding hills and by a low line of mountains dignified by the name of Ephrata Ridge. The houses of tho town straggle along a broad road which crosses the railroad near the station, dips away until it sweeps around in a curve over a bridge, past an old mill in front of a broad built red brick house, and so away into the country. The houses, generally brick-built.in many casesold-fashioned, are very comfortable and home-like. Here one meets the Dunker per se in every by-road and lane men with long beards and llowing hair parted in the middle. At the farm-houses are pleas ant, matronly faces, stamped with humility and gentleness, while an air of almost saintly simplicity is given by the clear-starched cap, the handker chief crossed on the breast, the white apron, and the plain gray or drab stuff on the dresses. The style of living of these good peo ple, their manners and customs, are of the most primitive type. Their aim is to imitate the early Christians in their habits of life as well as in their reli gious tenets. There is absolutely no distinction of caste among them. They settled at first near Philadelphia, in a spot which has since btsn called Germantown, from tho various German religious refugees who settled there in the early part of the last century. The sect is now chiefly confined to central and western Pennsylvania, but has spread to other States, principally those of the Northwest, though there are churches established in western Mary land, West Virginia, and North Caro lina. Their dress is of the simplest description, quaint and old-fashioned iu its cut; they offer no resistance to injuries; they observe no conformity with the world and its manners and customs; they refnso to take oaths in courts of law; in these and many other ways resembling the Society of Friends. Some of their religious ceremonies are exceedingly curious. They cele brate the Loid s Supper after the man ner of the primitive Christians. The feast begins about the time of ciuidle-ligliling. The men are seated upon one side of the meeting-house, the women upon the other. The first cere mony is that of the washing of feet, eacli sex performing this duty for its own. Those who are to engage in the ordinance presently enter the meeting, carrying tubs of lukewarm water, and each member on the front benches re moves his or her shoes and stockings. A man on the men's side and a woman on the women's then wash the feet one by one, taking the right hand of each individual, as they liuish the washing, and giving the kiss of peace. After the one who performs the washing fol lows another, with long towel girded around the waist, who wipes the feet just washed, at the same time giving the right hand and the kiss of peace, da one benchful has the ceremony per formed, it gives place to another. While this ceremony is being conducted, the minister or teachers make a brief speech or read appropriate portions of Scripture relating to the subject. The next ceremony is the supper it gelf. Each third bench is so arranged tnat uie oacit can do turneu upon a pivot at each end, so as to form the top of a long table. This is covered with a white cloth, and presently broth ers and sisters enter, bearing large plates or bowls of sou), which are placed upon the tables. Three or four pcgple help themselves out of the same dish. After this the communion is ad ministered, aud the whole ceremony is concluded by the singing of hymns and preaching. This the brethren hold is the ouly true method of administering the ordinance of the Last Supper, and also hold that it is similar to that cere mony as celebrated in the earliest Christian Church. Another peculiar ordinance among them is that of anointing the sick with oil, In accordance with the text in James, v. 14. The sick one calls upon tne elders of tho meeting, and at a settled time the ceremony is performed. It consists of pouringoil upon the head of the sick person, of laying hands upon mem, ana praying over them. The ordinance of baptism is ad ministered in running water and by threefold immersion, the officiating minister then laying his hands upcu the recipient, who still kneels in the water, and praying over him or her. The ministers or teachers, who re ceive no stipend whatever, are elected bv the votes of the members nf the church, be who receives the largest number ol votes being pronounced elected. These elections are summoned by the elders of the church, who pre side over them and receive the votes ol the people, either viva twe.tn whisp ers, or by closed ballots. If no candi date has a majority, or if there are greater number of blank votes cast than for any oue candidate, the elec tion is pronounced void. Such is a brief and condensed ac count of those peoplo, and their religious customs and ordinances. They are. caiteu Hunkers, or l linkers, irom the German tunktn, which mar be inter preted to dip, or probably "to sop" is a better equivalent word. They as sume tor memseives tne name Brethren on account of the text, Matthew, xxiii. 8, "One is vour Master, even Christ. and all ye are brethren." They also sometimes call themselves "God Pe culiar People." Howard fyle, in Harp' trs Magazine. One War to Carry Baby. A gentleman who was walking through East street yesterday morning, says Uie New Haven Palladium, saw a sight which amused hira very much, and he related the incident as follows "A man and his wife came down the street, oue carrying a bouncing baby and the other what looked like a ten quart milk-pail. The man had the child and had become tired of holding it. He took the pail from his wife a put the child into It. I hen she took hold of oue side of the pail, and off the; trudged wiih Uie weight tit the child divided between theiu." WREfCHtDHICH MEN. Who Have Immense Fortunes bat Take Mo Further Interest In Life. A woman writes to the Philadelphia Free Frexs from Long Branch: "One of the saddest things iu tho world next to real poverty or distress is the sight of a man who has acquired boundless wealth and has lost his happiness and his capacity to enjoy what money secures, bueh cases are by no means rare. They are very common. I saw a man to-day whose income is believed to be about $1,000 a week, whose whole day was spoiled because a cabman over charged him 1 for a short ride. Of course the millionaire knew he could not possibly spend his income, but nevertheless the idea of losing a dollar, of being defrauded out of it, of getting nothing in return for It, was almost ajrony to him. Many n man in making a great fortune completely loses the power of enjoying it. This is one of the world's eomnensatinns. The hav- piness of sound sleep and a good di gestion is often enjoved by a man with an empty purse, while the millionaire epicure has neither painless digestion by day nor healthy rest by night. "I saw on the ocean drive this after noon one of Philadelphia's richest men. He is one of those wretched old million aires who have spent the best years of their life getting control of a bank, or a brewery, or a boom of some sort. He is sitting back in a corner of his swell landau now and wondering what he did it for. He has a fine old face, a heavv gray mustach, bushy eye-brows and gold-rimmed eye-glasses, lie Is dressed carefully, and his face is absolutely empty of interest in anything, lie can't even work any more. Because he has so much money all motive is gone. His wife! Oh, well, he loved his wife long ago and he bows to her now when he meets her in the hallway of his house, and they have never had a quarrel. Children P Yes, several of them. Ihcy used to be pretty, and were fond of him when they were babies. J. hen boarding school, college, balls, parties and checks, checks. Now he hardly knows anything about them. All sympathy is lost between them. Living under the same roof, their hearts are always wide apart. In fact, he doubts whether he has a heart at all." Oil On His Hair. The Hartford (Cal.) Sentinel tells this story: "A voting man in this vicinity called upon a barber and had his hair cut. As usual, the barber ap plied some oil to the young man's hair. The young man retired to his blankets that night, but about 5 o'clock in the morning he awoke with the feeling that some ono was trying to saw the top of nis cranium on. upon lighting a lamp he found the only trouble was that the oil on his hair had attracted a few thousand ants." Female Army Officers. The idea of making Queen Victoria a colonel of German dragoons has struck a good many people as rather odd, but it is said that female officers were quite common in the British armv about 150 years ago. At that time, it is said, persons who bad a pull on the government were in the habit of christening their daughters by mascu line names, getting them commissions in the army, and drawing pay for the service which the girls did not perform. Col. Victoria, of course, does not draw pay, but is content with the military glory which goes with it. Toronto utooe.
