Take two barrel hoops and six slats or pieces of lath; cross two of the pieces in the bottom hoop; fasten them together in the middle with a clout or wrought nail; fasten the other four to the top hoop with clouts; fasten the lower_ends to the bottom hoop by driving two small nails through them into the hoop end into the ends of the crossed laths, and your frame is completed. Take a piece of coflee sack, or similar stufi, and cut it round and a little larger than the bottom hoop; lash er Sew it to the bottom hoop and to the cross pieces. Take canvas, muslin, tick ing or whatever you wish to cover it with. and draw it around and lash it to the bottom and top hoops; cut a. piece of cloth round to cover the top; cut the top piece in two across the middle after it is put on; this will give an opening to put the fewls into the coop, after which the aperture can be laced or sewed to gather. If the fowls are to go any dis- tance, feed will be necessary, of course. To provide for this, sew a pocket on the outside that will hold a pint or more; in- side sew another pocket, with the bottom just even with the bottom of the outside pocket, the inside pocket to be but about two inches deep. Cut or punch small hole through the side of the coop to con‘ meet the two pockets; put the feed into the outside pocket and it willrun throu only as fast as the fowls eat it from e inside pocket. Wire a. drinking cup to one of the upright slats and to the to hoe , sothat it will project half out ans half in the coop. ‘ A coop 20 inches across and 22 inches high will weigh 34» poumlg and be large enough for a trio of games. If the fowls are to go one. short journey do not put to. the feed and drinking cup. A Word About Fences. In sections where rail timber is near at hand the cheapest fence is the old fash- ioned Virginia. worm fence, except in cases where there is a market for the timber that makes it more valuable for other purposes. In that case the regulation board fence, with two posts to a. sixteen- foot. length. and which is too well known to require a. description. will be the cheap est and best. In localities where timber is scarce the wire fence is increasing all the time in favor. Farmers who fear in- jury to stock from the barbs are many of them making 11. combination: fence of boards and wire. For a hedge fence, the osage orange, all things considered, is the best for all sec- tions where it is not liable to be winter killed. It grows from the seed more readily than the thorns. and in a few years makes an impenetrable fence. It is difficult to root out when once estab- lished, and for this reason should not be used for division fences unless they are expected to remain permanently. Hedges require attention and frequent priming to keep them sightly and under subjec- tion. While they arestill )vell thou ht of by many, it is doubtful if the he ge fence is increasing in general popularity for farm purposes. In the older settled sections of the country fewer highway fences are being made erery year. The opinion is constantly gaining ground that stock should be fenced in instead of being fenced out. A coop built on this plan need not weigh ovor three and one-half to three and three-quarter pounds. and be large enough to carryatrio of games or fowls of medium size anywhere. The coop can be made larger for Asiatics and not weigh over half a. pound_ more. The California Cacklcr describes tho shipping coop hero illustrated.

The committee made 9. certificate for the whole plot at the rate of 583 bushels to the acre. This total, while falling below the yield specified in the challenge, is in point of fact a notable one in View of the attack of the unforeseen and unconquer- able enemy which destroyed the No. 8 plants before the tubers were a. quarter grown, considerably injured the No. 4 plants and those of N o. 2 somewhat. _ Drovcs of dehorned steers are now up- pearing in the Chicago market. The reduction of postage on seeds, bulbs, plants. etc., from one cent per ounce to one c‘ent for two ounces is now an accomplished fact. The production of the three varieties numbered as R. N. Y. Nos. 2,3 and 4, grown in the five trenches and stated in round numbers, was as follows: The two trenches of No. 4 Sieldcd respectively at the rate of 683 an 605 bushels to the acre. The tubers were large and well shaped and were generally of merchant- nble size. The two trenches of No. 3 (the ones most injured) followed with a. comparatively small yield. at the rate of 298 and 253 b shels to the acre. The mammoth yiel . which brought joy to Mr. Car-man, although he was disappoint- ed on the entire plot, was made by No. 2, which weighed out at the rate of 1,076 bushels to the acre. The tubers were large, quit-e uniform in size and perfect in condition. One of the noticeable things about this number was the unusual ab- sence of sum. or unmerchantable sizes. The production of lambs for market, in any of the more thickly settled sections of the country, if conducted with intelli- gence, cannot fail to be profitable. One of these trenches was planted with a potato known as the Rural New Yorker No. 2, two with Rural New Yorker No. 3 and two with Rural New Yorker No. 4. Unfortunately for the contest, the flea beetle which has done much damage to the potato crop this season in certain por- Lions of New Jersey and elsewhere, at- tacked the foliage of No. 3, occupying two-fifths of the plot. and destroyed it be- fore the earliest tatoes began to mature. Variety No. 4, so two-fifths of the plot, was attacked in a similar manner later on and the foliage mostly killed some three or four weeks previous to the maturity of the tubers. The plants of Rural New Yorker No. 2 were less injured than either of the other varieties and the foliage was alije in the early part of September. The contest plot contained five rows, euh thirty-three feet long, three inches apart from center to center, on specially prepared ground ’on which potatoes had been grown for twelve successive years. During this entire period it received not over fifty tons of horse manure per acre. The applications of fertilizers each year have been liberal, the average being prob- ably not less than 1.200 pounds (at that rate) per acre. The rows or trenches, as these are called to distinguish them from the ordinary plantings, were dug eight inches deep and one foot wide. Mancs’ potato manure was mixed with the soil in the bottom at the rate of 880 pounds to the acre. On this the seed, cut three strong eyes to the piece, was planted in hills one foot apart; then a light covering of soil on the seed and an additional amount of the fertilizer to make it equal to 1,760 pounds to the acre, when the trenches were filled to the surface with the earth taken out. harvested, measumd and duly decided upon Sept. 28 by the judges appointed, in the presence of some thirty guests, in- cludixw Peter Henderson, the well known New for): seedsman; C.

The challenge was accepted by Mr. il- mer Atkinson, the editor of The Farm Journal. It was agreed that the result of the contest should be determined by the following judges: W. A.

G. Webb, River Edge, N. J., and L. C. Benedict, agricultural editor of The New York World. The contest potatoes were planted April 20, and cultivated according to the trench system, approved by Mr. Carman, and for several years practiced with unvarying and satisfactory results.

Band was a. superior harper, and Robert was armourer. Malcom the son of Robert had a splen- did musical ear, and he was sent by the earl to Mull ‘to learn the music of the pipes from Mac Dnillidh. Malcom, or Calcum Mac Rarbeart as he was called, was rather young and careless and was not attending to his master’s instructions; he was rathes stifi' fingered. He and his master were at a wedding and went wrong (took too much) and his master lashed him out of the wedding-house in the dead of night, and he went with his pipe in his oxter. The night was dark, but he saw a light at a. distance and made for it. There was an old man in the house where the light was and a good fire on ; and when the old man opened the door he told Calum to come in and sit by the fire. After a while the old man asked him if he had the pipes. He said he had. The old man told him that his master, Mac Duiliidh, was studying a tune and that he had it all finshed but one part. The old man then taught Calum Mac Raibeart the whole tune that his master was study- ing, with the last part complete. Cetlum stopped in the house with the old man till daybreak; the old man then sent him away and told him to play the tune when he would be near the wedding- house. He accordingly did as the old man desired him. His master on hem» mg the music knew Calum’s lingering and said that that was Culuni coming back playing the very tune that he was studying himself. After that time Calum paid more attention to the pipes than he did before, and there was not H Lune that he would hear but :hat ht- :ould pick up at once. His muster- :hon declared that the lock; or “glue," hurl come oll' Calum's lingers; and from that he called the tune the “glasmheur,” or “lingcx-lock.” Burns, Scalds, Etc. 02d Stories Retold. the Fount'alne of Life.

Expensive Information. That a. little knowledge‘is sometimes an expensive thing IS well illustrated in the following inciduzxi‘, from the Pruvidcxzc: Journal A nhnuf-tcturcr of some kind of a patent. medicine cnmpzmnd came into the laboratory of a. chemist one day carrymg 11) his hand a. bottle containing an unwhole- some-looking mixture.

You say you are willing to give thin; and for that price I am willing to tell you what will make the water and oil separ- ate.” “ I would give one hundred dollars,” he said, "‘ to know what would make the water and oil in this emulsion separate.” The chemist looked at it. The visitor hesitated“. wmentaud then wrote his check for the amount named. The chemist carefully deposited it in his pocket-book and then quietly drnpped into the liquid 9. pinch of common salt. In- stantly the water and oil separated. and whether. the client was satisfied ‘or not, he had paid his own price for it. FARM STSfiK EMPLEMENTS I may also mention wire walking as a branch of the profession; but; it is not actually so recognized by us. Curious as it may seem to an outsider, it is I: uch easier to walk on :1. wire than on the regular hempen rope,‘an:1, with a little perseverance and some natural ability to start; with, amnn 2y learn to wall: the wire within three or four weeks at the outside. 1 once lmd a man as an assistant who never walked a. rope in his life. but shortly after he left me he was advcx‘ti:=czl as amarvelous wire walker and obtained a. good salaryâ€"J. F. Blondin in Lippiucott’s Magazine. Three Kinds of Rope Walking. I need not say that there are several kinds of rope Walking, for one has only to visit an American circus to see more than one variety practiced in the same ring. 'Wo in the pro- fession recognize three legitimate forms, of which one, however. is almosu obsolete now- adays. Taking them in the order of‘ their difficulty, and therefore. I presume, their attractiveness, there is first the high rope, which is fixed as near the clouds as the per- former dare venture or the law will allow; secondly the “low rope,” on which the more youthful performers disport themselves, and which is stretched only some seven or eight feet from the ground; and lastly, the old fashioned “ v ‘ scan: rope, which I hate re- ‘ " of date entirely. This , ' 'hbility the oldest form of tight repe we} 11g, andJI believe dates back 50 classic times. t receives its name from the fact that the performer we. ks up a rope which is stretched from the' ground to some convenient elevation forty or fifty feet away. When I was young it was still popular, and even today we often syenk of a separate per- formance on a high rope as “an ascension.’l I need not say that the difilculty of this form of rope walking is trifling as compared with that now generallyrpmeticed.
