AN AGRICULTURAL AND CHEMICAL
GLOSSARY.
GALVANIC BATTERY.
This is an apparatus made by layers of
zinc and copper put into diluted sulphuric
acid in a row of cups or jars connected by
wires soldered to each other in such a man
ner as to have a compound circuit. In the
arrangement of the battery it lias a posit ire
and a negative pole.
Another kind of battery is formed in a
wooden trough. Besides these there are
other kinds all intended to perform chemi
cal experiment upon the nerves of ani
mals and human beings. Galvanism is a
name applied to certain electrical effects
discovered bv Galvani, who was a profes
sor of anatomy in the University of Bo-
lognn.
Under the operations of the galvanic bat
tery the muscles of animals and human
beings after death can be agitated with
convulsive movements; the legs can be
contracted and thrown out with such vio
lence as to endanger one against whom the
foot might strike. The dead persons may
be made to breathe heavily, to open and
shut their eyes, to raise their arms and
stretch them violently at full length. They
can lie made to exhibit rage, horror, de
spair, and ghastly smiles while under the
iniluenceof the electrical discharges from
the battery.
It isoften used, sometimes successfully, to
restore those apparently dead from drown
ing and other causes. It is used to cure
rheumatism, asthma, dyspepsia, loss of
nervous energy, Ac. It would take columns
to describe the formation of the various
kinds of batteries and the many uses to
which they are applied.
OASES.
Gases are elastic fluids; Aeriform fluids.
It is applied to every fluid simple, or com
pound, except the at nosphere which is
termed air. They are obtained by the ap
plication of heat. Water is convertea into
gas. or at least an elastic vapor, when heat
ed above 212 deg. By chemical process they
are obtained from Oxygen, Hydrogen, Ni
trogen and Carbon.
GASTRIC JUICE.

and is essential in the process of digest

PLUCKING GEESE FEATHERS.
The number of times that geese can be
picked depends in a great measure on the
climate. It is cruel to pfck'tbein whemtkey
will bo exposed to the cold, and atrtlie same
time you are liable to lose them. When you
pick them you should be, if possible, in a
close room, as the least breath will scatter
tlie down and feathers. Having taken up
your bird, draw a long bag or stocking
over is head and down on its neck, as it will
prevent its wreaking its vengeance on you
by its merciless biting. The wings are also
formidable weapons and must be held, or
their blow will leave many black and blue
marks as evidence of their power. The time
to pick is when the quill of the feather is
ripe, that is, clear. While the feathers are
developing the quill is filled with bloody
matter, which shows their unfitness for
picking. When picking take all the small
feathers, leaving the large ones, except four
or five under each wing, from drooping;
take off all the down only in warm weather.
In ease it should turn cold after the geese
are picked, provide them with a good warm
place and they will not suffer anj^ineonven-
ienco from being robbed of tlielr coate.
Early goslings might be ificked when their
feathers are grown and ripe ’and yet grow
out full in time for fattening for holiday
market. The yield of foathers will be about
a quarter of a pound to each goose, and
that will nearly pay for raising them.
Stock Dying From Want of Water.—
Thousands of sheep and many cattle have
been lost this winter in Kentucky from
want of water; and thousands more will
die if this cold weather and snow hold on.
No fallacy is so great as that which holds
that sheep and cattle will get from the snow
enough water. With sheep the reaction of
the cold <>f the snow on the mouth in melt
ing generates great irritation and fever,
and adds to the trouble. There Is not suf
ficient water got to fully moisten the food
by either sheep or cattle, and Ur gets im
pacted in a dry state in the - stomach. The
stomach is in a high state of inflaiqgnation
and the brain then becomes affected, deatn
speedily following. On opening the ani
mal the coats of the stomach are-found ail
mortified igangrene) and even the dry food
piercing it.
And the same is the case with cattle, yet
they endure more than sheep. But thou
sands have died on the plains of the far
West andf rom jhe same eause, want of
water. Very many cattle have died in Ken
tucky from this cause.
Now the remedy is to see that water is
to In* hail, and it is the only remedy, and he
who is advised of the condition of things
and does not provide for it is himself alone
the cause of his loss.. , ; . ;
A Good Rf.oiutt For Hop fkAST. -Peel
four Targe Irish potato's, or six small
ones, and put them, together with a double
handful of iiops tied in acoarse muslin bag,
into two quarts of cold water contained in
a saucepan. Coyer them and boil until the
potatoes tweak open. Take our the pota
toes, leaving the water to continue boiiinjp
mash them One and work in four taaS-
spn, ir.fuls of flour and two of white sugar.
Stir this until quite smooth, at the same
time wetting it by degrees with the boiling
hop water until that is *U need. Allow it
to cool. When it becomes only slightly
warm add four tablespoonfuls of good
yeast and place in a large uncovered vessel
to work. Keep the vessel in a warm place
until the yeast ceases to fbrmenLor until
the next day. As soon as it is quite light
cork up in snuill-nKuithujf earthen, jars, or
bottle it. Then keep it in the cellak dr some
very cool place, where it will remain good
for a f<n tnight or more. When baking take
out the quantity dcsjrod jn a small vessel,
and do not allow the jar of yeast to stnnd
even a short time in a hot kitchen.
American Mules i*T
Glasgow Tramway Company are employ
ing American mules instead of horses, and
these animals are also being Introduced in
London, where they arc gaining favor from
their powers of endurance. The Farmers’
Gazette, commenting on the arrival of a lot
of mules from Kentucky to the order of
Messrs, John Bell & Hons, of Liverpoolnnd
Glasgow, who recently supplied the Gov
ernment with 500 mules for transport ser
vice at ttie Cape, says; “The animals on
arrival appeared to Iks-«a fresh a«4^j^n
they started, and notr a cleath occtered
among them on ttie voyage. They are not
of the English type, possessing more of the
appearance of the horse. The consignees
who brought the animals over have had
numerous applications from intending pur
chasers.”. t, |

READ, FARMERS.
How to keep work stock fat on half allow
ance of corn, is told by B, I, B. one of the
boat farmers in Hancock county.
Sow wheat oate and rye—begin with the
wheat as soon as it gets up enough to cut a
handfull, and givo it freely to the stock un
til it is well headed out—giving a halt al
lowance of corn while feeding the small
grain. Next, corn and the rye. Cut that as
soon as the head begins to appear, before it
gets clearly o»t, and let it pretty well cure
before using; and then feed it with corn,
until the oats ripen—and then feed with the
oats and 00m as afore-mentioned. Keep
good stalls, with a plenty of fresh water,
and never load your stock too heavy or
drive too hard.
SUCCESSFUL WORK.
A few simple words explain every thing.
It is to keep ahead of all grass ami weeds,
to work every crop at the right time; never
to plow or hoe two, thmy or four, weeks
too late, to go over the wfcoto-erop as early
aad often as is ■eccaaary ffMrivs ths-ptants
the best chancs to grow tmil ripen their
fruit Hence it is important to*4i£jd over
cropping. In this there is loss everf time.
Sometimes a whole crop is ruined bybelng
overtasked. Many a farmer has seea<this.
Less land aad better work is the plan to
make the most money, and then, hands
and stack fare better. This is a subject
worthy of the serious consideration of all
young and inexperienced termers, old and
experienced termers understand this as
well as, or better, than the writer.

COIIBIYED WITH TIH INDEX.
REV, W. X. CHOCDOIN, Jacksonville, F'a.,
Corresponding Editor.
The purchase of the FnpRiDA Haitist. iis gixid
will, etc., by the proprietors of Tue Index, has
added a larger number to its already large list
of readers'.In that State, and correspondingly
increased Its advantages as an advertising me-
dium.
The addition of a Florida Department to “The
Index.’’ has, also, enhanced its interest to our
readers.
All who desire to know more of the -Land of
Flowers,” or to advertise their laisiness inter
ests to its reople, will do well to subscribe for
and advertise in “The Index,” as it is the best
means of communicating with the Baptists of
that State.
Indeed, there -is uo paper published in the
South which can offer such advertising advan
tages to business men for the States of Georgia,
Alabama. Florida, the Caroliuaa, Texas. Tennea-
sce, Mississippi, etc., as “The Index.” and we
respectfully solicit the patronage of the business
men of the cuuntrv.
