THE EXPRESS. Cartersville, Ga., Sept, 26, 1878. WfIEN MIRY WAS A LASSIF. The maple trees are tinged with red, The birch witn golden yellow, high above the orchard wall Hang apples rich and mellow ; A id that's the way through yonder lan;, That looks so still and grassy, Tae way 1 took one Sunday eve, Wueu Mary was a lassie. Toa’d hardly think that patient faca, That looks so ihin and faded, Was once the very sweetest one That ever bonnet shaded; Bat when 1 went through yonder lane, That looks so still and grassy, Tho* eyes were bright, those cheeks were fair, ■yy jeu Mary was a lassie But many a tender sorrow, And many a patient care, H ive made those furrows iu the face, That used to be so fair. Four times to yonder church-yard, Through the lane so still and grassy, We’ve borne and laid away our dead, Since Mary was a lassie. And so, you sec, I’ve grown to love Toe wrinkles more than roses ; Earth’s winter llowers are sweeter far Than all springs dewy posies; They’ll carry us through yonder lane That looks so still and grassy, Adown the lane I used to go When Mary was a lassie. “Man builds his castles lair and high, Wherever river runneth by ; Great cities rise in every laud ; Great churches show the builder’s hand; Great arches, monuments and towers, Fair palaces, and pleasing bowers ; Great work is done, be it here or there, Aud well man worketh everywhere ; But, work or rest, whate'er befall The farmer, he must leed them ail.” ISF.FIL KNOWLEDGE. Kindness to stock, like good shel t rs is i saving of fodder. That the soil loves to eat as well as the owner, and ought, therefore, to be well manured. Sheep and swine in the orchards are recommended to exterminate cod ling moth. The best timber in a sound tree is always the part neur4ho ground. The tensile strength of lance wood is double that of beach or chestnut. To make new rope as limber and soft as an old one, boil it two hours in water, and thouroughly dry it in a warm room. A tame owl used in former times to be as common in English barns as a cat is in a house. lie was kept for the mice that depredated on the grains. They say that corn has an unsual ly heavy shuck on it this year, and that the yield will fall short of out ward appearance. Branches of the elder-bush, hung in the dining room of a house, will clear the room of Hies. There is an odor which the insects detest. A tea made of ripe, dried wbortle biTiies, and drunk in the place of wa ter, is a sure aud speedy cure for scrofula difficulties, however bad. An Oskaloosa farmer says : ‘Clover bloat, so fatal to cattle, may be cured by fastening a stick in their mouths and compelling them to hold their heads in an elevated position, the poi sonous gases escaping.’’ lie says it never has failed. Bedbugs are said to be most read ily destroyed by nux vomica in the form of tincture, combined with liq uor ammonia, which mixture is to be IV ely applied to the joiuts and cracks of the bedstead. It is equally effica cious against cockroaches, waterbugs aud other vermin, and if applied to the harness of horses the animals will no longer be annoyed by flies. Ground gypsum spread upon the floors, will prevent the pungent odor common to stables. The vapor of ammonia is hurtful to the horses’ eyes, and the frequent cause of op thalma, and resulting blindness, with which so many horses are troubled. Throw a few pailfuls of water upon the floor first, and then scatter a shovelful of gypsum. The Scientific American gives the following novel plan for checking bleeding at the nose: ‘ The best rem edy for bleeding at the nose, as giv en by Dr. Gleason in one of his lec tures, is in the act of masticating. In the case ot a child, a wad of paper should be placed in its mouth, and the child should be instructed to chew it hard. It is the motion of the jaws that stops the How of blood. This remedy is so very simple that many will feel inclined to laugh at it, but it has never been known to fail in a sin gle instance, even in very severe cases.” According to the Pharmacist, an ink that cannot be erased even with acids is obtained by the following re cipe ; To good gall iuk add a strong solution of fine soluble Prussian blue in distilled water. This addition makes the ink, which was previously proof against alkali s, equally proof against acids, and forms a waiting fluid which cannot be erased without destruction of the paper. The ink writes greenish blue, aud turns black. WORTH KNOWIAG. To Keep Butter Cool. A flow er pot, wrapped in a wet cloth and placed over a butter plate, will keep the contents of the plate as hard as if it were kept on ice. Milk wiil not sour if the can containing it be wrapped in a wet cloth. Baking powders. Three ounces of tartaric acid, four ounces of the best saleratus, nine ounces of sifted flour ; pulverize the acid and salera tus ; mix thoroughly and box tightly in a tin box. Keep* a small quantity in a box for us; as it loses its strength if lefff uncovered. Green Food for Horses. If horses are so situated that they can not be occasionally pastured, grass of some sort, green rye, or oats, should be given them two or three times a week. They cool and refresh the 83'Stem, but, care should be taken against immoderate supplies. A Preventive of Rust and Smut. At the time I sow my wheat I have for several years past made an application of salt; I harrow it in. This practice keeps my grain free from rust and smut. lam convinced the salt also acts as a fertilizer to the crop. Sunflower Seed for Poultry. After repeated trials I give sun flower seed the preference over buck wheat for glossing the plumage of poultry. It accomplishes this equal ly as well as with buckwheat and is not so heating. Antidote for Poison. It has been proved by repeated experiments that bw< et oil will cure the bite of a rattlesnake. The sufferer must take a tablespoonful of it internally, and a'so bathe the wound with it careful ly. To cure a horse it requires eight times as much as for a man. A per son who was apparently dying from snake-bite and had been given up by the doctors, was cured by taking one spoonful of oil. Sweet or olive oil,both names are used for the same thing, is also an antidote for poisoning by ar senic or strychnine. It wTll cure bloat ifi cattle, the stings or bites of insects, etc. MILE A\D LIMF. WATER. Milk and lime-water are now pre scribed by physicians in cases of dys pepsia and weakness of the stomach, and in some cases are said to prove very beneficial. Many persons who think bread and milk a great luxury frequently hesitate to eat it, for the reason that the milk will not digest readily ; sourness of stomach will of ten follow. But experience proves that lime water and milk are not only food and medicine at an early period of life, but also at a later, then, as in the case of infants, the functions of digestion and assimilation have been senously impaired. A stomach taxed by gluttony, irritated by improper food, inflamed by alcohol, enfeebled by disease, or otherwise unfitted for its duties—as is shown by the various symtoms attendant upon indigestion, dyspepsia, diarhoea, dysentery, and fever—will resume its work, and do it energetically, on an exclusive diet of bread and milk and lime-water. A goblet of cow’s milk may have four tablespoonfftls of lime-water added to it with good effect. The way to make lime-water is simply to procure a few lumps of unslacked lime, put the lime in a stone jar, add water un til the lime is slacked and of about the consistence of thin cream; the iirae settles, leaving the pure and clear lime-water at the top. GREASING WAGONS. But few persons are aware that they do wagons and carriages more injury by greasing too plentifully than in any other way. A well-made wheel will endure common wear for ten or twelve years, if care is taken to use the right kind and proper amount of grease ; but if this matter is not attended to, they will be used up in five or six years. Lard should never be used on a wagon, for it will penetrate the hub and work its way out aud around the tenons of the spokes and spoil the wheel. Tallow is the best lubricator for wood axles, and castor oil for iron. Just grease enough should be applied to the spin dle of a wagon to give it a light coat ing ; this is better than more, for the surplus will work out at the ends, aud be forced by the shoulder bands and nut washers into the hub around the outside of the boxes. To oil an iron axle, first wipe the spindle clean with a cloth wet with spirits of turpentine, and then apply a few drops of castor oil near the shoulder and end. One teaspoonful is sufficient for the whole. A NEW METHOD FOR PRESERVING FRUITS. A foreign chemist has published a new method for preserving fruit which deserves a trial on a small scale, as it is so simple, yet it is deemed to be perfect iu the preservation of the pe culiar aud original flavor : “Wash the specimens clean after gathering, and place in vessels a fluid composed of two to three hundred grains of sugar to one litre of pure water and two and a half to three grains ot salicylic acid. 1 The pots or bottles, with their con i tents, are then closely covered with common writing-paper, and so kept in a moderate temperature, as any ex | cess of warmth would cause too I great an evaporation of the water. In this way the professor has found by experience that plums, cherries, apricots, peaches, grapes,stra\vberrieß, | etc., can be preserved in good, sound ; condition for a whole year, each fruit retaining its original and peculiar fla | vor as fine as when gathered.” HENS AND DUCES IN THE FRUIT-YARD. Young chickens and ducklings will get a large part of their living from im-ecls, if they have the opportunity. It is a good plan to give up the fruit yard, or a part of the orchard, to poul try. Chickens and ducks want shade us w r ell as sunshine, aud thrive better for it during the summer. They are always on the watch for worms and millers, and greedily devour every in sect that falls from the trees. They are fond of fruit, and consume the windfalls, which hatbor the insects that are so destructive to fruit. A brood of chickens left under an apple tree, affected with canker-worms or caterpillars will n duce the stock, and finally exterminate them. One of the most successful fruit-growers we are acquainted with, keeps poultry con stantly under his trees. The apples and pears are fair, and he has paying crops every year. SLOP FEED. I favor slop feed. First, because it is easier of digestion ; second.stock thus fed are not liable to suffer for drink as when fed on dry food ; third, salt, acid or other condiments can be incorporated with the food in due proportion, that shall not only keep the animal healthy but assure a steady appetite and rapid fattening, making thereby superior beef. A cupful of oatmeal to a pail of water will make, in this hot weather, a better and wholesomer drink than any decoction of spirits or even wa ter. In the navy it is regularly serv ed out to the men. To clean star rods use woolen cloth wet with water and dipped in silted coal ashes; afterward rub with a dry cloth. After hums are smoked and beef dried they may be packed away in a barrel between alternate layers of salt. ’Tis said they keep through the summer splendidly.
