Pet canaries arc by no means uncom mon. in households, but a pet canary mixed up with a miscellaneous lot of playthings in the nursery is something oat of the ordmary. A three-year-old Brooklyn girl received a present of a yenhgi canary from a friend of her mother several months &go. The child shoved affection for the bird from the moment that it was placed in her hands, and she insisted upon keeping it with her other playthings. She treated the bird tenderly, and soon the tiny creature begun to manifest a fond ness for its little mistress. For awhile the canary was allowed to remain in the small wooden cage in which it came from the bird fancier, but as it developed into a sweet trinff^r the child's -parents provided a hand&oine wire cage for it Still little Helen claimed it for one of her piny- things, and the bird seem to feel that its special mission was to play with its mi&treKX Whenever the child built houses with her blocks the canary would rustle at the door of Its cage and ' 'Peep!

"Don't you want to hear it John?" she asked in surprise. "No, I don't" "Dear me," she said in a puzzled sort of way, "don't you really like to be waked up in the middle of the night to hear a story any more than I do when I get to bcil first?"

In the old days there was a bottle stuck in some corner of her bedroom, with a more or less soiled,.stiff rag banging on the cork, which wa» called into service ju*t before a start was made lor a shop ping or calling tour.

But to-day to make up a face properly is to master an art having elementary rules as exact as those of a science.

The neighborly habit of borrowing household utensils is of a very ancient standing, aod in one case at least has had the honor of mention in English literature Rev. Michael Balwhid- der in his "Annals of the Parish." in 1760, tells very quaintly of the in troduction of jam and jelly making in his parish by the great arrival of sugar from the West Indies, so that this style of preserving, hitherto known only among the gentry came to be a common thing among the village folks, and adds that **i» occasioned'a. great fasherie to Mrs. Bawlhidder; for in the berry time there was no end to the borrowing of her brass pan to make jelly and jam, until Mrs. Toddy, of Cross Kcys^ bought one, which in its turn came into rsquett and saved ours."

Beenlrc* cfratliiMd ~ £Mtlff«a*«, £ni*lMgp*ct>etW9eu fine crops and partial or eaîre failure may be frequently objmr^d. Ofc^ shows the effect of skill, the -other the result of neglect On one hand, orchards are loaded with fine crops of excellent fruit; on the other partly dead trees htve,nothing but small iad scrubby apples. In small-fruit plantations weeds have had the ascendance; strawberpy, patches are noted for tteir sickly and winter-killed appearance, The owners admit general disappointment and failure. Bat there are other owners who give a very different report. Their small fruits and strawberries have escaped winter killing by carefully applied winter protection. Their rale has been to kill weeds "at whatever cost," by never allowing them to grow. They have found the labor very sma|i to destroy them with a steel rake or fine harrow passing every week before Uiey come up, compared with the hard work to root out the rank mass when a foot high. In a neighborhood where both kinds of management prevailed, lived the owner of a hundredacre farm, a portion of which was devoted to xruit-raising generally. His trees had generous cultivation; a large part of the manure made on the place was carefully applied broadcast to the fruit trees and to the small fruit* The result of this, long continued, was that the annual sales from all the different kinds amounted literally to thousands of dollars annually. But this success required continued diligence, intelligence and skill.—Countrj Gentleman. DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

That the ravages of grape rot *»r« not been as severe as formerly in {om* sections is con firmed by the statement! of many prominent growers of grapes, bat the reasons assigned vary, the majority of growers beiiug inclined to the belief that the years 1801 and 1893 weia unfavorable to the disease. Other growers affirm that the use of tho Bordeaux mixture has aided in preventing the ravages of the rot by destroying the spores to a great extent. In some sections of New Jersey, how* ever, there have been but few cases ot the appearance of the rot en vines that were before attacked, although the vines bad not been sprayed with fungi* eides at any time. It is now considered a fact thai the, rot may be prevented by the use ot tha proper remedies, and the fact has been demonstrated by treating selected vines in vineyard * that were' affected. In all cases where the fungicides were used the disease was eithei eradicated or its effects mitigated, and it is also observed that by a vigorous treatment the disease may be wepstrailed as to do but little damage the succeeding season, which gives promise of its being entirely eradicated sd a few years.
