Xl earae itoBtintbis way; In February the lira was overru n with rats, and after jottioj? everything eatable out of their jr/i-h they attached the harness, which knag on pegs in tha usual way near treatable. The first I knew about it • breast collar, single harness, was ' rbout half eaten up, and the collars of ‘ p»ir of work harness seriously in* Jjred. It at once became apparent fbatthe harnesses must have a closet, jut where? As doors and stable were frranged there seemed no convenient piacC. For three weeks I “ toted” the i {arnesses to the house, to the disgust of tiui women and to my own discom* fpytaiid annoyance, I was awaiting a tit of leisure time to decide where to build that closet, and how. Finally I hit upon the plan illustrated Juthe engravings and designated by my 7 [,■ FIG. 1. friend as a bay window. Xhad a thi ok IK-foot pine board, :2<) inches wide. This I marked and sawed as shown in Fig. 1, the liDes a and b being 8 inches out of perpendicular and the middle line'e, being sifwed on a diagonal so ts to give a half-pitch roof. I then went into 1 the horse Stable directly behind • the stalls in. daily, use, and sawed out that -art of the nail F, Fig. S5, where it was covered by fo u r s i d i n g hoards, b e i n g f o u r f e e t in length. Then I sawed the siding at I, just as far above the sill G as the length o f the longer side of the board A, C. Then remov­ ing the sawed siding, I nailed the pine hoards to the edges of •th e siding on either s i d e o f the opening. I Connected these boards, w h ic h formed the sides I i FIG.

Inside, next the stable, I cased around the door with two-inch plank, leaving an opening for a door ■ thirty inches wide and and sixty-seven inches high, The door was placed six Ynalies above the sill, giving room in- ' k lo to lay the collar' on the sloping floor and also the curry-combs, and ?■' brushes.

Land speculators, realizing the -ira- ’ portance of good road facilities, seldom place a tract upon the market until they have improved the approaches and driveways. This is one o f the reasons why the boom in California was so suc­ cessful. Especial attention was paid to the streets in all towns laid out They were:.made attractive, and in nearly every instance sidewalks o f cement were put in place before tlic first pur­ chaser was invited to inspect the premises. ' There is another reason, however, why the roads should be improved, Mr, Isaac H. Potter, in an article to an engineering magazine, holds that one- half the 10,000,090 horses and mules on the farms of the United States could do the hauling o f the farm produce it even the present country roads were placed in good repair. With a reduc­ tion of only an eighth of the number of draught animals, the saving each day would amonnt to about 14,009 tons of hay and W.090 bushels of grain, which, regarded as to money value, would amount to 6900,009 a day, <#$114,003,000 a year. I f the value o f the saving in animals is added, a total of $r>4,ooo,ooa results, Considered from this standpoint, it Way readily be shown that in the course of a few years the roads can bo paid for in the saving they would make. In localities where roads have been macadamized the value o f proper­ ty lias increased about 103 per cent. Add ibis increase to the saving effect­ edand there results a handsome net profit. How localities can continue to Wist with few and badly kept roads, *hen tlio advantages of the reverse ate w plainly evident, is more than can bo ■intelligently answered,- -St. Louis Be* • . . . . . . ‘' ■ . .. , — wvf, V • Forr.rfty manure Is the richest that wn l>e secured oh the farm and it ould be carefully stored away. GREENHOUSE BENCHES. Tw* Kind* J& w * i «>r Wd«h I* Substantial and Easily Made. We present herewith engravings of two methods o f constructing substan* tial greenhouse benches. The first Shows the style o f beuch used iu a now range of houses at Richmond, Ind, The rails used were light T rails such as are used on some street ear lines. The rails wore used on some line that had cause to change to another style o f rail, and were purchased at a low price; they answered the purpose just os well as new rails. As shown in the illus­ tration, the cross pieces are of the same sized rail only placed right side up. resting on the top of the front cedar post and mortised into the other cedar post at the back. The three rails that run lengthwise are placed bottom side up, so-as to allow a broad, fiat 'surface for the slats or other Bottom material, to .rest on. The rails are held in proper position by pieces o f board cut so as to fit ip. the spaces between them. But it is necessary to hold them in place only long enough to get the slates or other bottom material in position. The cedar posts-are sunk 18 inches In the ground and are placed feet apart, but they might just os well be 12 feet apart ufs 8. The side board is held in position by galvanized iron strips which pass through two slits in the board and, clasp around the outside rail. ^These are placed 4 feet apart. Tills is the weakest point about this style SUnSTAN’rrAi. GREENHOUSE.BENCHES. '.r ' / of bench. The rest is os solid as a rock, and the benches will, be just os solid 25 years hence as at present The rails cost 11K cents a foot, and while the firgt cost is very- considerable, .even after having been in use for many years, a good share of the amonnt can be gotten out of them by disposing of them for the price of old iron. For tho center benches the same system is fol­ lowed, the rails being placed at a proper'distance apart to suit the size of the slate, etc., used. The second illustration shows tho style o f bench in some o f the houses at Minneapolis, Minn. Two pieces of large angle-iron, about 3x3 inches, -run leugtfnviso o f tho"'house on brick piers set down about 8 feet apart,, and for the. bottom sort boards are placed crosswise.

The highly digestible quality of the oyster considered as food' was known at a very early period. When Sergius Grata “ ennobled tho Lncrine oysters,” the British variety was unknown to the Romans, but Sallust, at least fifty years B. C„ says o f the Britons that there is some good in them after all, as they produce an oyster. Sergius had his beds off Italic, and made a profit out o f them, as they were much in re­ quest as a prelude to a banquet, and were esteemed besides for their medi- dnini virtues, “ They nourish wonder­ fully," we are told, “ and solicit rest," being more healing than any drug or mixture that t)ie apothecary can com­ pound, The disgusting habits of the Romans enabled them to swallow in some cases a,thousand British -oysters at a Bitting, but that was When, as Prof. Huxley reminds pa, even ladies “ carried about with them peacock's feathers and other dalhty throat-tick­ lers for the purpose when they antic­ ipated a more luxurious feed than usuaL” Seneca, in the time o f Nero, renounc­ ed both oysters and mushrooms asmere provocations o f appetite, “causing those who are already full to eat more, a thing no doubt very pleasant to glut­ tons, who like to stuff themselves with buc I i food as very readily slips down and very readily returns. ” But in times much more remote oysters were in vogue. In Denmark and tlie northern parts of our island kitchen-middens of the Stone Age yield oyster shells and Prot Forbes affected to pity “ the enthusiastic oys­ ter eater, who can hardly gaze upon the abundantly-entombed remains of the apparently well-fed and elegantly- shaped oysters o f our Eocene formation without chasing ‘a pearly tear away.’ " We can not believe that oysters ever went out of fashion with our ancestors. “Ostre" occurs in Anglo-Saxon, and seems to be connected* with “ ost,” a knot a scale. William, the Conqueror, is said to have esteemed the English, oyster very highly, and it figures in tha menu of many medimval feasts, espec­ ially in Len t—Loudon Saturday Re­ view.

The finest kind of a table luxury and one that dairymen can. make more money on. ready money at any season of the year is sweet cream cheese, made in the following manner: Let the milk be set four inches dee-) in shallow open pans. When the cream is about one-half on tho surface tlie pans should be set on tho stove until tho -cream “ crinkles." The stove must not be too hot nor tho process too rapid. Thick, tough sheets of cream are tlie requisite. Setting the pans o f milk away again to* cool w ill make fine sheets o f the best that can bo rolled off entire, Such cream must ho placed in tin molds without bottoms and standing on folded cloth to absorb the moisture. Some prefer to place a thin stra w mat between the cream and cloth. After 13 hours the molds may ha turned over and 12 hours later tha cream will stand without support and he ready to sell or use. Only the small* est possible amount o f salt is applied to the cheese ends as they are invert­ ed. A little practice will produce a fancy product o f ready and high sale and the work is as nothing compared to the manufacture of cheese, or butter. 'Desirable sizes are 3x3 inelies and l ; j inches thick, and 3x4 inches o f the same thickness. The latter con­ tains just twice the amount of cheese than tlie former does and should sell for ' a little less tiiun twico tlie price. These delicious little cream cheeses should be eaten fresh, but, properly handled, will keep a week. Some advantages of this form of dairying are the following: The dairyman w ill soon realize, an In­ centive to the. most careful breeding to obtain the best stock for cream pro­ duction. The Cost of the utensils re* quired for this work is next to nothing. The product can l c marketed twice a week in tlie neatest kind of a light car­ riage to well-to-do townspeople after it is introduced and a trade built up.— Farm ahd Home.
