On it are sitaated the barn buildings, generally inclading the less important structures of Icehouse, smokehouse, carriage house and others. The dwelling, standing twelve rods distant from these, is reached by a good carriage road from the highway, and by a simple curve any vehicle is carily driven to the barn, In front of the barn and near the sources of manure is the fruit and vegetable garden, containing half an acre or An acre, and so arranged and planted that nearly all the work in it horse its contenta are easily seen the dwelling.

At the California State Beekeepers' convention a subject up for discussion WAS the best bees for gathering honey, Conclusions arriyed at, after a general discussion had ensued, were that a cross between the Italian and black boo, 88 hybrid, was the best honey producer, The black bees were credited with capping their honey the whitest, and some preferred them on this account, as it made 8 No.

Tile Drainage, Some writers have attributed the lowering of the water level to tile drainage, but it has had but little if anything to do as a procuring cause. To the contrary, says The Drainage Journal, deep underdrainage serves to hold 'beck the water, for without underdrainage the compact surface, with open drains along the roadways and unobstructed natural outlets for the water, causes it to Low away rapidly. With deep underdrains the open, porous soil will take up the water of all ordinary rains as it falls and pass it down to the- drain, the moll, subsoil and under stratas taking up a large proportion of the water, permitting only the excess to pass out through the tile drains. The soil from the surface down to the drain will absorb water to the point of saturation. The amount of water required wet the soil depends upon the character of the soll, the" finer soils absorbing the greater quantity, If the underdrain is or four feet--it is 'evident that a heavy rainfall will be required to wet the soil down to the drain.

It is true also that. after the rainfall the surlace soil will first be relieved of any excess of water, so on slowly down tot the aides drain; of the the drain water Rowing necessarily in from prevents the rapid lowering of the water level Bo, in fact, the thorough underdrainage of the soil serves to hold back the water when compared to the surface Bow. Where the underdrainage is sufficient to pASS the water of an ordinary rainfall down through the soil to a depth of three or four feet, the drains will run water long after the 'open drains and small natural outlets for surface drainage have run dry, Poultry Pickings, Some one has said: "In ordinary calculations twice two makes tour, except in the ponitry' business, where nearly always twice two only makes Milk is most beneficial to poultryyoung and old, A little cayepne pepper in the food creases egg production, Feather pulling is largely. due to idleness, and is most liable to occur. in sotive breeds kept confined and having too little exercise.

THE MITCHELL This Justly Celebrated Wagon, Manufaotured by Mitohell Lewis Limit lucine. is The Recognized Standard all Over the World. 0 7 52 has a reputation established as "MONAROH OF THE ROAD." This title has been established and maintained, because it is made as near perfoction as a wagon can be inade.

There are many claimants to the "Best Wagon in the World," but none dispute the fact that THE MITOUELL I8 MONARCH--of all the best.

who have -been educated-in BECAUSE The Thimble Skeins are made from our own patterne, and are much heavier than any others in use. They fit the arm of the axle like a kid glove on a lady's hand. BEOAUSE--The Hubs are dodge mortised, which makes a stronger wheel than any other kind, "Tho boxes are pressed into the Hubs without the use of either hammer or wedges. BECAUSE- The Wagons are more thoroughly and completely ironed thap any other. BECAUSE--The Patent.
