Micro-Organisms in the Air.
To the unassisted eye the prefence
of even any solid particles in the air
is, as a rule, entirely invisible. We
fay this is so as a rulo, for there aro
circumstances when the solid particles
in the air are rendered visible. Every
ono is awuro of tho appearance of a
-tream of sunlight, introduced through
a slit or hole in tbo shutter of a dark
cned room. Under such circumstances
tho air through which tho sunlight
passes is seen to be full of minute dust

thus seen to “people tho sunbeam”
institute, after all, only a very iu
eguificant fraction of the total num
ber the air contains, for thousands of
them aro far too miuuto to be visible
to tho naked eye. Among these latter
aro the germs.
It is only indeed with tho aid of our
most powerful microscopes that we are
enabled to discern these latter and
form any estimate cf their size. Many
of them aro less than tho ono twenty
thousandth of an inch. In the words
of Professor Percy F. Frankland, ono
of our first experts on this subject,
“400,000,000 of these organisms could
bo spread over ono equaro inch in a
single layer. Thus we could have a
population 100 times as great as that
of London settled on an area of a sin
glo square inch without any complaint
of overcrowding;, and giving to each
individual organism, not three acres,
which certain politicians tell us aro
necessary for tho individual man, but

Valuable Postage Stamps.
Persons who have kept any of tho
old letters they received in tho South
during the war, might do well to look
them over. The Confederate govern
meat authorized the isbuo and use of
local , „ , postage , stamps, , and , nearly ,
every
city in the South, at one time, had its
own stamp. Many thousands of theso
were used, but so rare are they now
that they bring very high prices.
There is among collectors a keen de¬
mand for them, and an idea of what
they will bring may be gathered from
the report of a sale which occurred
recently at tho rooms of the Philadel¬
phia society, New York. Confederate
stamps sold as follows: Athens, Ga.,
$40; four vaiieties of tho Baton
Rouge, La., 5-cent, $41, $77 and $30,
respectively; Macon, Ga., two varie¬
ties, for $(53.50 and $101; Lenoir, N.
C., $2 and Mobile 2-cent, black, $11.50.
As time goes on these curiosities will
probably increase in value. They
aro already beyond tho reach of every¬
body but wealthy collectors.— Ex¬

fowl cholera.
This disease is due to disorder of
( tho liver, tbo result of over-feeding;
, that is to say, that this error in the
management produces such a condi
tion of tho system that tho germ of
tho disease lias every favorable oppor
j tunity for its development, and as
these germs are abundantly distributed
, in tho atmosphere, the disease ap
pears wherever these conditions ex
ist, and not otherwise. Thus, to avoid
the disease tho food should bo of the
, right kind,
, not all grain, or one
! single grain, but grain of mixed kinds,
! mostly oats and wheat, and the least
■ of corn, with somo animal matter,
. aud plenty of fresh, green, vegetable
. food. Tho water, especially, should
he pure and fresh. The most effec

tive treatment for tho disease is to
j isolato tho sick birds, and give each

This annual pruning should always bo
done in early spring, before the new
growth of the season commences, then
all the buds r emaining will start evenly
and be in condition to resist the heat
of summer. The best form for ever
green hedges is an oval brought to a

Where there are no snows in tho

THE NATURAL AGE OF FRUIT TREES.
The natural life of fruit trees is a
matter hard to determine in these
days. Insects and fungus diseases
that were not known in tlio early his¬
tory of the country cause the death of
trees at a very early age. The peach
tree is commonly supposed to be the
shortest lived of all the trees; yet
fifty or moro years ago there were
many peach trees thirty and forty
years old. They were grown on land
full of mineral plant food and the
peach borer had not been introduced.
We remember some of these old peach
trees that had large trunks, with a
comparatively small and high top.
These trees had probably never been
pruned, and the peaches were grown
on limbs each year farther away from
the ground. Trees that grow from
seed are longer lived than those that
are grafted. There is very seldom en¬
tire harmony iu growth between the
stock and scion, and this difference
tends to shorten the life of the tree.
There are yet seme old apple trees
eighty to 100 years old with sound
trunks, and likely to live many years.
There were no apple borers when these
trees were young, and those which
come now seek the tender bark of
young trees. These old trees are all
natural fruit and mostly of poor qual¬
ity. No trees that can be planted
new and run the gauntlet of insect
enemies can be expected to live as
long, but their shorter lives may be
more valuable. —Boston Cultivator.
SECRETARY MORTON ON SPRAYING.
In a recent interview Secretary Mor¬
ton said : “The apple trade of the
United States with foreign countries
has always been profitable. The de¬
mand for apples grown in the United
States has always been in excess of the
supply. The United Kingdom of
Great Britain, alone, during the nine
months ending September, 1804, paid
the orchardists of the United States
$2,500,000. The greatest enemy to
our export apple iu the “Codling
Moth.” Bat the entire crop can be
made wormless if the orehardists of
the United States will use the follow
ing reeeipe:
Use Paris green at the rate of one
pound to 150 gallons of water. Weigh
out sufficient poison for the capacity
of the tank used, and make it into a
thin paint with a small quantity of
water and add powdered or quick lime
equal to the weight of poison used,
mixing thoroughly. The lime takes
up the free arsenic and removes the
danger of scalding. Strain the mix
tare into the spray tank, taking care
to pulverize and wash all the poison
through the strainer. During the
operation of spraying see that the
’ ; » uidis agitated With sufficient fre-
qnency to prevent the settling of tho
poison.
The prime essential in spraying is to
Break np the liqnid into a fine mist,
so as to coat every leaf and part of the
plant as lightly as is consistent with
thoroughness. This should not re
quire more than from three to seven
gallons for a comparatively large fruit
tree.
Let the first spraying follow within
a week after the falling of the blos¬
soms of either apple or pear, and fol¬
low this with a second treatment just
before fniit turns down on tho
stem ’ or when ifc is from one-filter

ON RAISING CALVES.
The finest calves are produced by
allowing them to get the food from
their mothers in the natural way, but
there is little to prove that these
calves make better cows than thoso
raised on skim milk and less expensive
foods, writes W. C. Whitehead, of
Ohio, to tho American Agriculturist,
If the cow is quiet, leave the calf with
her for two days, If she is excitable
and frets for her calf when taken away,
tho sooner thoy are separated the
better for both. Pat the calf in a
warm dry place, where it cannot be
seen or heard by the mother. If it
has suckled give it two pints of warm
milk from a bottle, In twelve hours
tako a pail of milk, freshly drawn from
its mother, and teach the calf to drink
by letting it suck the fingers. As soon
as it begins to relish tho food gradually
withdraw tho fingers from its mouth
until it drinks, keeping tho hand on
its nose. Then take the hand away
and the calf quickly learns that its
food is in the pail and not in tho hand.
A calf will learn in from one to four
lessons according to its intelligence.
Scarcely any two calves will do
equally w.oll on tho same amount of
food. Take two of the stfme breed—
one will thrive on five quarts at a feed
while i t!p»B&er cannot digest more
than halt as . ^Experience will
teach the amount each djM add have.
When this is learned, ml ih
calf’s ration and avoid suda
in amount. When two we

mixed wheat hay bran. where Stiok the a ca’f baijH Jjm
and seo how soon it- gyll i4KS3l
The bran, corn and hay are neces¬
sary to restore the skimynilk to the
nutritive ratio of whole milk. The
nutritive ratio of milk is one of flesh
and tissue-forming to four of heat
producing properties. Fat and sugar
are the principal heat-producing ele¬
ments in milk. These are taken off
with tne cream, leaving skim'milk a
narrower or colder ration than nature
provided. To this narrow ration many
add oil meal with a nutritive ratio of
1 :l£, making a very cold ration. Ie
it any wonder’ that so many calves
die of scours when robbed in this way
of the heat-producing elements abso¬
lutely necessary to life?
The nutritive ratio of wheat bran is
tho same as that of milk, while those
of corn and hay are enough wider to
restore skim milk to the’ratio of whole
milk. The calf will soon learn to eat
the corn and bran dry from a trough
and pick the hay from a manger.
When a month old give no more whole
milk. It will grow well on its new
ration. Warm all it drinks to a tem¬
perature of ninety degrees F. Gradu¬
ally increase the other feed as soon as
the calf has learned to eat it and it
will not hurt to continue warming its
drink until spring pasture comes. With
a feed of bran once a day and good
pasture let it grow until winter comes
again. Feed it a balanced ration in
winter and good grass in summer un¬
til it becomes a cow.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Cut fodder is as economical for
horses as for cattle.
Harden the horse to the collar be¬
fore the working season begins.
The trotter can still be improved by
right mating without going abroad.
Keep horses in good condition in¬
stead of waiting until trouble corner
and then dosing.
Burn up your old nests and put in
new material. Now is a good time to
guard against lice.
A crowded and unclean house means
sick fowls, when the weather warms
up a little. Clean up and keep clean.
If you are not satisfied with your
fowls, get a sitting of eggs that you
know are all right and start in with
some that do suit you.
Less medicine and a little more
common sense in feeding and caring
for animals wiLl save horse owners
both money and anxiety.
The coach and carriage horses which
show the most style, combined with
good size and formation, are the ones
which are in the most demand and
bring the best prices.
More than one hundred horses in
Montgomery County, Missouri, have
| died, from eating corn stalks. Smut,
combined with the quantity of woody
fibre consumed, was the cause of
fioath.
Are the legs of your fowls white and
scaly? It is caused by a minute in¬
sect, and will in time spread through
the flock and perhaps kill them,
Make an ointment of lard and kero
sene or sulphur and anoint the legs,
If you are too lazy to do this, then
dip the legs in clear kerosene a few
; times. That will clean up the legs ia
j short order.

A Dog and Parrot Story.
William Winpenny, of Queen laae,
was, until a few days ago, the owner
of a pet parrot, which hc had purch¬
ased iu New Orleans several years ago.
Tho bird was a veritable household
pet, being allowed liberties that no
other parrot ever enjoyed. Its con¬
stant chatter amused tlio members of
the family, especially at meal time,
when Polly was regularly placod at
the table, receiving the choicest tid¬
bits for her meals. A few days ago
Polly died and was reverently buried
in the yard with a little headstone to
mark tho grave. Tho next day’s din¬
ner ivas a mournful one for the family,
Polly being sadly missed. The old
honse-dog, Pomp, looked on with a
wistful eye, surmising that something

An Apt Epitaph.
An incorrigible office-seeker died, a
few years ago, and his friends asked a
well known journalist for an epitaph
for his tombstone.
Tho journalist selected the follow¬
ing, which was not, however, adopted:

Need Clear Heads.
Working people need clear heads, sound
sleep and good digestion; for if sickness
comes, wliat then? It is cheaper to keep well.
That “queer feeling” springs from indiges¬
tion. Fir-t you “pooh pooh!” Then you grow
a! armed ! send for the doctor. No need of
that. A box of Ripans Tabules will set you
right and keep you right; so you can eat, sleep
and work. Ask the druggist for them.

Salvation Army t > Invade China.
Another army is about to invade
Chinn, but tho campaign will be con¬
ducted on different lines from that of
tho Japanese. The Salvation army is
going to try to conquer the orient and
bring the millions of Chinese into the
fold of Christianity.
The leader of the movement is Fong
Foo Sing, a young Chinaman, who is a
member of the Salvation army in Sau
Francisco, and who is employed ns a
typewriter in the office of the War
Cry. He said to a reporter: “I ex¬
pect that the army at the proper time
will send mo to China. To go to
China was the object that really lead
me to join tho Salvation army. I
wanted to do something for my coun¬
try along army lines. The late war, I
believe, has made China open her
eyes. As a result the way will bo
oponed for Christianity, civilization
and other good things.”
Captain Sing expresses himself 1!u
eutly in English but uses somo ex¬
pressions that aro peculiar.
