The contrivance itself can- n0t be termed an entirely modern in- vention, inasmuch as so far back as the last quarter of the 17th century a learned priest of the Jesuit Order, Pierre Francoise Lana, published a folio volume on a proposed method of aerial navigation.

The balloon, as a successful con- trivance for aerial navigation, even with all modern improvements, has up to this remained in statu quo. The mosr recent of the machine has bound with tiny silk cord and finished with little bows of pink satin ribbon. The material used for covering the cushion in the design illustrated was green silk, but blue silk with white ribbons or gray silk with pink ribbons ar_e__pretty combinations. can be bought in any notion stone and then covered with silk. Pink silk faces the thimbla bag, and the cushions are ALWAYS ACCEPTABLE. A gift which will always be accept- able to one‘s feminine friends, is a needle and pincushion, such as the novelty here shown. From cardboard cut the diagonal and circular pieces for the two cushions and cover these with figured or plain silk or satin. The tiny bag is for the owner‘s thimble and the emery is one of the kind that with sweet or mildly tart apples out in pieces like dice, are a popular sup- per-dish in many households. As a suostitute for butter, apple-sauce and mamalades of various sorts may be used to great advantage and if furn- ished in sufficient variety, children soon come to like them much better. Of dried and. evaporated apples it may be said that they are merely substitutes for fresh5 fruit, which should "De put up in cans.

My new bed, which waited for rain till Labor day, and then was set carefully, was not thoroughly watered and would have died but for the rain that came about two weeks later. As it is, most of the plants 'lived, but have made small growth. Apparently, nearly all the roots died. and they were rooted un- usually well. They will get a good covering of straw this winter and it will be left in the rows when growth sets in again. I am in favor of the matted row system, and it is under- stood by me. Runners will be allow- a time the full length of the’vgarden. If I care to I can ho’e them out neat- ly once in awhile and never scratch, through it is probable that some straw mulch will do the work for me. The rows run north and south and will shade other garden crops very little. Here and there a plant left out gives space for passing through the rows. Strawberries had a hard time of it this fall where they had to be trans- planted. My experience is that it .1--- and the grass and weeds are having it their own way with them. When I took up this branch of gardening the first thing I set about to reform was the berry patch, which was not only in the last stages of weediness, and grass, but was a terror from thistles. not to mention the berry bushes them- selves. Now, if any one should visitf the farm he would notice a few long rows of berry bushes running one at ed very little, they are still in the old ruts, and will tell you that a living cannot be made in dairying. It cannot according to their methods; neither can a living be made in any line of work or ,business to-day with methods employed that were in vogue twenty- five years ago. Only those who keep up with the times in dairying can hope ito keep atop of the heap. It is not al- ways an easy matter even then, for there are many local matters of a dis- couraging nature to overcome. These worry and irritate, and sometimes dis- courage those of faint heart. But if, we continue everlastingly at it, and: never yield to discouraging results and i circumstances, we must come out right in the end because there are so many others who do succeed. What We need most of all is clear foresight. in discovering where it is the screw is loose. It may be in 'the markets or an unfavorable situation to them; it may be in our methods of feeding. which robs of all profits, and again it may be the low grade of stock with which we began. It is certainly slow and toilsome work to grade up a herd in which scrub stock predominates. It is better to reduce the herd. weeding out some of the poor stock, and put the money you get for them in one or two fine, well-bred animals. The re~ sults will be quicker and surer, and far more substantial. Lc is true we have made great pro‘ grass in dairying in the past. twenty years, but too much of this progress is confined to a limited number of peo- Pge.

Sir Harry Lumsden, a brilliant Bri- tisn officer whose career in India is related in a recent biography, was a fierce and dashing fighter, but he was also good at Strategy, when discretion seemed the better part of valor. One of his earliest successes of this sort has been handed down as a tradition among the hill tribes that he defeat- ed, and is Still a pOpular story among them. He was at the time a young lieutenant, in charge of a small de-‘ tacbment of trooys, and was confront- ed by an enemy of superior numbers.l This hostile force was concentrated on! 'the top of a steep mountain, whence} it seemed impossible to dislodge it. ‘ “At last,” Lieutenant Lumsden wrote, “a villager came in and told me that although the enemy occupied the mountainâ€"top all day, they were in tthe habit of coming to springs half- way down to cook and rest at night. “Aeting on this information, I sent for some herdsmen of the district, and showing them a handful of gold coins, promised to pay them well if they! would take a bugler and some odds, and ends up to the t0p of the bill after: the enemy had retired for the night. 3 “A bargain was made, and next eV-, ening my little party was ready. The: bugler was disguised as a shepherd,: and the villagersâ€"three in number-,5 carried each half a dozen pots filled? With powder, with fuses attached? These they were to take to the top 011 the hill and lay out in a row, and at; nine o’ciock, on a signal rocket being i, fired from camp, they were to light all the fuses, the bugler was to blow all the calls he knew and then the: whole party were to make the best of chair way back to camp. .

In fattening turkeys a very good mixture can be made of corn, oats and wheat. This is especially true where new corn is fed. Old, or thoroughly seasoned new corn will do very well. By mixing the three in about equal parts, a safe feed can be made that will be good for fatti‘ng stock and ex- cellent for the breeders that are kept over. In feeding such a mixture it will not do to scatter is on the ground as a general thing, for the turkeys will pick out the corn and possibly} the wheat, leaving the oats. Feed ini pans or boxes.

There would be but little if any difference in sweet or ting the cow accustomed to the apple eating, a half bushel per day would be a fair ration. Feed in a manger, and fix it so that the cow cannot raise her head but afew inches from the manger bottom while eating apples, and there will be no danger from chokq ing.
