SALT AS A FERTILIZER.
The application of salt upon grain
crops is a growing practice in this
country. Avery considerable demand
for salt or this purpose has been es
tablished in our southern towns.
Dirty salt, or that of an inferior quali
ty, is as efficient as any, and comes
cheaper. It is applied at the rate of
from one to three bushels upon barley,
wheat and oats One bushel of salt is
good for three bushels of grain. The
best results were formerly realized
when salt was sowed on barley, and
the production being increased several
bushels. If sown pretty freely, say
three or four bushels per acre, the
benefits are visible for several seasons.
For a long period salt has been used
to a large extent on the growing crops
in Great Britain. It has been there
ascertained that sixteen bushels per
acre will ki ! l all kinds of vegetation.
Eight bushels per acre may be safely
applied. From two to four bushels
per acre would p- obably insure suffi
ciently favorable results in this coun
try. There can be no doubt that the
farmers would obtain valuable returns
from the use of salt upon their grain
crops. The price of the article is very
low at present, and likely to remain so
permanently, so that no objection to
its employment in the way suggested
can be urged.—S., in Country Gentle
man.
Sulphur, Salt ano Ashes for Stock.—
Asa general rule, says a New England
Farmer correspondent, live stock,
when well fed and cared for, will eat
only what their system needs, or what
appetite craves. When cattle gnaw
the boards and shingles from the barn,
the hair from each other’s sides, and
even the grounds where soapsuds have
been erupted; when they eat old boots,
bones and woolen rags, in preference
to their food, there is something out of
sorts with them, and as a corrective I
have never seen anything equ and to
plenty of ashes, salt and sulphur.
My usual mixture is four quarts of
ashes, two quarts of salt and one-half
pound of sulphur. When the stock
have corn cobs frequently I lirrd they
need ashes less. I can stop the gnaw
ing of wood by feeding cobs, every
time. Sulphur is good for the blood
as a preventive of disease, and also
makes the hair look well. It is also a
preventive of mange in swine, and
tends to keep their issues open.—
Sheep that have sulphur frequently
will not be troubled with humors, and
will never pull each other’s wool.
Fresh Meat.— Farmers are likely to
cook meat too soon after the animal is
killed. The idea is that to get the
meat very fresh is to have it more
wholesome and ‘safe.’ A cook in one
of the great French restaurants, either
hero or in Furope, never cooks meat
on the same day when it is killed. It
has not had time to obtain consisten
cy. A gourmand can detect tho flavor
of ‘fresh’ meat instantly. Except in
very warm weather meat should be
‘hung’ iu a cool place at least a reason
able time. How frequently, when
company comes, the farmer hastily
kills a chicken, and while the flesh is
yet warm plunges it into the pot. This
is what gives the sickish, ‘cbickeny’
flavor. The Euglish people hang
their meat until it begins to attain a
gamey flavor. Of course no positive
directions can bo given for a country
so diversified as ours iu climate; but it
may be safe to say that meat should
never be eaten on the same day that
the animal is killed.
Food for Chxlden.— Oatmeal por
ridge is especially suitable for chil
dren. It nourishes their bones and
other tissues, nnd supplies them in a
greater degree than most foods with
the much needed element of phospho
rus. If they grow weary of it, they
cau he tempted back with tho bait of
golden syrup, jam, or marmalade, to
be eaten with the porridge. The Irish
and Soldi make their porridge with
water, and add cold milk, but the
most agreeable and nutritive way is to
make it entirely with milk, to use
coarse oatmeal, and to see that it is
not too thick. The following is a good
recipe: Bring a quart of milk to boiling
point in an enamel lined sauce pan,
and drop in by degrees eight ounces
of coarse oatmeal; stir till it thickens,
and then boil for half an hour. The
mixture should not be too thick, and
more milk can be added according to
taste.
The Scientific American has this
comforting intelligence for smokers:
“The eft'ects of tobacco smoking are
discoloring of the teeth by carbon,
excitement of the salivary glands by
the ammonia, headache and lassitude
from the carbonic acid, disease of the
heart from the carbonic oxide, nausea
from the bitter extract, and a tainting
of tho breath by the volatile empyreu
xnatic substance. The system may
become used to these things, yet is
made liable to consumption, nervous
exhaustion, paralysis, and other ail
ments.”
Brutes do not reason —a horse or
mule can be better trained and man
aged by gentle treatment than by
harsh means. They are not expected
to see and know what is wanting, and
it looks shameful to see a man lose his
temper in trying to manage a horse,
and apply the lash or a pole to the
dumb brute that is not at all conscious
what it is done for. Some of the best
trained animals are forever ruined by
this kind of treatment anil the want of
even good horse sense on the part of
the driver.
A good way to keep crows away
from corn-fields is to string ten
or fifteen kernels of corn on a long
horse hair (from the tail), and a crow
will swallow one of them, and the note
of alarm will soon be sounded, and it
will be impossible for him to dislodge
the grain, and in a short time he will
cut his own throat scratching at the
corn and hair, and in consequence of
the noise the crow makes, all of his
companions will leavo the field and not
pull up any more corn that season.
In cases of accident don’t try to ex
tinguish a kerosene lire with water.
Smother the flames with blankets or
rags.
A glass of milk with a pinch of salt
in it will insure a night of delicious
sleep. Don’t forget, and put in nut
meg, sugar, etc.
A judicious rotation of crops will
keep a farm in a good state of fertility
without any manure, except what is
made on the farm.
SUM)AY AT SPOTTED TAIL AGENCY.
The Sioux Church ami Sabbath School—
Points of Interest.
One week ago Sunday the writer
was at Spotted Tail Agency, Nebraska,
and enjoyed to the utmost the novel
and interesting scenes and doings of
the day. They have a church at that
Agency, built especially for the benefit
of the Indians, and the Episcopal so
ciety has established a mission there,
which has now been in operation about
two years, with encouraging results.
Rev. W. J. Cleveland is in charge of
the mission, and is efficiently assisted
by Sisters Pendleton and Lee, as well
as by his estimable wife, a Christian
lady of noble attainments and gener
ous impulses. All labor earnestly and
unceasingly to improve the mental
and physical condition of the untutor
ed red man, never faltering, though
often experiencing most discouraging
trials.
The ehrill clang of the church bell
at 10:30 a. m., called together a curi
ously mixed congregation for the En
glish service. There were soldiers
from Camp SheridaD, teamstei’s, clerks
and other employs from the stores and
Agency, two or three uniformed officers
with their wive3, white ‘squaw men,’
several half-breed women, and a few
children of mixed blood. The cjsy
little brown church, the interior of
which, done in plain pine, with no
sign of paint, save on the pulpit and
fixtures, but beautifully ornamented
with evergreens, either woven into ap
propriate mottoes or formed into
crosses and festoons of fanciful design,
the walls covered with tastefully-let
tered cards bearing various quotations
from the scriptures, in both the En
glish and Dakota dialects, with the
patent hard-wood seats, presented a
vex-y beautiful appearance. A wild
canary chanced to stray inside, and
flitted about among the evergi-eens
throughout tho entire service, giving
the scene a somewhat wilder aspect.
To this motley assemblage the rich,
full, and clear tones of the rector’s
voice rang out, speaking holy truths
in plain, yet brilliant and impassioned
words. He l’eminded one of Gold
smith’s description of the pastor in
‘The Deserted Village:’
‘At. church, with meek and unaffected grace,
His looks adorned the venerable place.
Truth from his lips prevailed with double sway,
And fools who came to laugh remained to pray.
At the close of tho service two
squaws, married to white men, came
forward with babes in their arms, and
the right of baptism was administered
them.
At 2p. m., tho bell called together
about sixty children, nearly all of
mixed blood, and half a dozen young
women, among them a beautiful half
breed, the daughto of Maj. Sully, of
frontier fame, by his Sionx wife, wiio is
now wedded to a balf-breed at Spotted
Tail. Tho rector opened the school
with prayer and song, and tho sisters
began the exercises by having the cop
per-colored scholars repeat the Ten
Commandments in both English and
Dakota, which was very well done.
Other lessons were repeated, and the
rector closed the school with singiug
and prayer.
Mr. Cleveland informed the repre
sentative of The Leader that this
Sabbath school was established two
years ago iu the mission chapel, and
that the number of scholars has stead
ily increased ever since. The sisters
have charge of this work, under his ad
vice and guidance, and I‘eol much en
couraged.
At 6:30 p. m., another summons
from the bell called together about
one hundred people, mostly adult
half-breeds of both sexes, with a
sprinkling of curious soldiers and
other white men. The service was en
tirely in the Dakota language, for
which printed hymnals and service
books are provided. After the service
four squaws, one male half-breed and a
white man were baptized, the rite be
ing administered in Dakota, and after
song and prayer tho Doxologv was sung
in Dakota, nearly all the entire congre
gation joining in, and the meeting was
dismissed. —Cheyenne Leader, June 7.
The Courier Journal and the Atlan
ta Constitution are quarreling over the
character of Georgia’s eccentric politi
cal genious, General Robert Toombs.
The Courier says “he is a cold, pitiless
mau, who cares for nobody but him
self.” The Constitution says that the
writer iu the Courier knows nothing at
all of Gen. Toombs, and calls him the
wisest and most conservative man iD
the country. Gentlemen, you are both
wrong. The enthusiasm with which
he sprang into the lists of battle and
the heated and courageous manner he
has insulted the Federal government,
disproves his coldness; and the ear
nestness with which he has battled for
the oppressed people, disproves that
ho is pitiless. The miscalculation
made by him when advocating seces
sion-offering to drink all the blood
spilt iu the war disproves his wisdom;
and the ultra position which he has
always maintained upon all questions,
notably States right, before and since
the war, disproves his conservatism.
Tho fact is, General Toombs is a
warm, generous, brave, eloquent man;
impulsive, warm-hearted, sympathetic,
aud is neither an iceberg, a tyrant nor
a cynic; nor a Solomon, nor a conser
vator, and couldn’t be a statesman if
he wanted to. He is sometimes sober
and sometimes fresh, and gentlemen
of his habits are frequently misunder
stood.—Erwinton Southern and Ap
peal.
During the year 1876 tho govern
ment collected a revenue of $100,000,-
000 dollars from whisky, tobacco and
beer. The 62,500,000 gallons of spirit
distilled from grain and molasses and
the 9,000,000 barrels of beer on which
the greater part of this tax was col
lected is a very extensive tipple even
for 40,01)0,000 of people, being about
eight gallons for each voter. However
much the hard times may have gener
ally affected the industries of the
country, it is evident that tho manu
facture of stimulants has not suffered.
The field daisy, snatched from the
plow-share of Burns, is set in a light
which no crown jewel ever reflected;
the verse of Gray has made a country
church yard, in a quiet English nook
a shrine as memorable as the Pyra
mids or the Pantheon; to the sky-lark,
which soars and sings in Shelley’s un
matched strains, the world is listening
still; the water-fowl iu its lone flight
attracts the gaze of the world, poised
on the strong, serene verse of Bryant.
And ro to the leader of a little band of
patriots in a desperate struggle for
freedom, Halleck gave a crown which
Ceasar never wore.—William A Butler.

disease, Syphilitic and Mercurial dis
eases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Emaciation,
General Debility, and for Purifying the
Blood.
This Sarsaparilla is a combination of
vegetable alteratives Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock —with the lodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
efficacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully com
bined, that the full alterative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun
try repose in if . prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence of the superiority of this Suv
saparilla over every other alterative
medicine. So generally is its snpeii
ority to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
