Here is a description far a combined door and table, for pantry ut kitchen closet It may be made o f common lumber, dressed on both Bides, jnst as gn ordinary batten door, except that there should be two battens on the out* Bide at the top (when shut) and two on the Inside near the bottom. It should be put together solidly and t^en sawed in two about two. feet from the bottom. The lower part is hung as any other door. The upper part (which is to serve both as door and table for making out bread, etc.) must be secured to tbe top of the lower part with hinges (strap hinges preferred), so that it may be opened hack to a horizontal position. It rests on the braces, or legs, which are fastened hear the upper part of the top part with hinges, so that when shut they hang down against the door; but when opened down they retain COMBINEDnoon ANDTABLE.—OPEN. their vertical position. The door, or table, when open, stands around against the walk A small block, with edges and comers rounded, should be sailed to the floor, on which the outer corner of the bottom o f the door may rest when open. The door, when shut, is secured by a button near the top.— Cor. Form and Fireside. GOOD RESULTS CERTAIN. SWr^ MUk the Best and Most Economical , Food for Lamb*. iV^ake a specialty o f sheep and horses finraise but few pigB, and so cannot tell the relative profit from feeding skim milk to pigs, and lambs. I keep eows on purpose to get both fresh and skim milk for colts and lambs and have done so for some time with favorable results. Sneh milk puts the bone and muscle growth into,all young animals wihout making them too fat and with­ out danger of over feeding them. I feed the lambs until they are one .month old milk skimmed after standing twelve .honrs only; then they will drink any kind o f skim milk. In cold weath­ er, I warm the milk and mix with it ground oats and oil meal, and from such feed I can get all the growth I want in either lambs or colts, Early lamb raising is profitable when intelll-' gence and close attention are given to the business, and in my mind early lamb raising is in its infancy in oar country. In the first place, lambs are usually dropped in May, so that the ewes can be on grass in warm weather and they get no special attention. This is wrong. The loss o f lambs is too . great owing to such neglect. Thirty per cent, more lambs wilt he saved if dropped in February, while the sheep are in winter quarters, where they can have the shepherd's care in lambing and hare their feed regulated as re­ quired under different circumstances, and where the ewes can be made to mother (heir lambs. Then, too, our people are learning to eat and hence demand good mutton, which early lamb growing and forcing can alone supply. With pofrk and . mutton at present prices, we should raise early mutton lambs and feed them liberally with skimmed milk, hut should give with it, either mixed or separately, 'oil meat to counteract the constipation induced by the milk.—G. E. Breck, in Rural New Yorker. '______ „ . Baits# SWjra Bette# Than Cheese. A creamery can be established and carried on at much less cost and with fewer cows than is necessary to make cheese, tariffing profitable, and again the process o f butter-making Is much simpler and more easily acquired than that of cheese-making. The butter made and packed is ready for market, while cheese requires Weeks and months o f earifnl handling and man­ agement before it can be put On the market and command a remunerative twice. The seaaonfor cheese-making is limited, while batter eon be made dur­ ing nine moathe o f the year la the creameries* ‘-Rural Caaadiait,. , VALUE OF THE MOLE, The CapooHy * f the |4ttle Antuud far All Harm at Plant Peat*. Maj, Rolsinger, of Rosedale, Kan,, read, a paper before the Kansas Horti­ cultural society at its last meeting in which he said: "It does seem that some­ thing shculd be done to preserve the lawns from the unsightliness in which the moles leave them. All around we see evidences of their existence. But let me call your attention to the condi­ tions o f such lawns. Were I to cut a section o f the sod, I could shpw you the cause in quantities o f white grubs. The moles are present to feed on these larvoe, and could you but count the numbers of this enemy (the grub) to horticulture, yon would learn to esti­ mate at its proper value the usefulness o f the mole. "1 think the time is coming when the mole will be preserved and encouraged. They are ncyer killed on my grounds. I think the mole traps should be rele­ gated to the eighteenth century. Every investigation goes to show that the moles live on insects, and starve on cereals and vegetables. When confined (as they may be in a tight box) they .have been known to consume as many as 700 grub worms in 34 hours. I placed'in a tight box in a peck of soil fifty-six white grubs, two cut-worms and, a mole. Next day I emptied and carefully examined the contents, and found five grubs with no worms. I then took twenty-four grains o f corn, soaked, so as to be soft and tender, and put them in the same box. Two days later, I emptied and counted the con­ tents. Result,twenty-four grains of corn and a badly shriveled mole, show­ ing signs o f hunger. It was Mr. Landis, I think, who first came to the defense o f tbe mole. On his ground at Vine- land, N. J., he paid 25 cents for all the moles that were sent him. He was rid­ iculed, but all know that his enterprise was a success. To attack a popular idea is unpopular; and it takes a long time to work a reform; the mole trap will be sold. . Cultivate the moles, and as soon as the larvaeare eradicated they will leave the lawn for other pastures. Depend upon it that wherever evi­ dences of the mole are found, there you will always find the white grab." THE HORSESHOE TRUSS. The Blntpleet Way o f Supporting the Roofs o f Big Barns. Through the courtesy of Mr. Wells, the designer of this “ horseshoe trass," we are permitted to make a drawing from his plana The picture shows how the truss is made. At regular dis­ tances the beams cross the barn on a level with the tops o f the posts. On these rest the points of the shoe, while the round part rises and is fastened to the roof, thus leaving plenty o f room for tracks or slings in unloading hay. It is cheaply and conveniently constructed, being made by spiking TBK nOBSESnOB TBUB8. three planks together. It supplants purline posts and plates and tie girts, and is strong enough to hold the heaviest roof. The inventor is now using it in building a mammoth hall or pavilion on Staten island. The truss is patented.—Rural New Yorker, To Prevent Sun Scald. .“ I have iilanted several thousands of trees during the last ten years," says a nurseryman, "and hare seldom been called upon to replace one that has died. The success is the result of a very sim­ ple but seldom failing precaution. When the tree is planted a piece o f wood not lees than three Inches wide and high enough to reach the lowest branches should be driven into the ground just south o f the tree. This keeps the sun off Itduring two-thirds of the day and prevents the sap and bark being burned np before new roots bare beth formed.
