THE EAGLE. Published Every Friday Morning. 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. BROWN HOUSE. B'J.OO For I lay.

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.
