Whether hogs require sulphur as an
cwntial to their health, or whether it ia
s (light by them as * condiment, may not
he known for certainty. But one thine
is sure, they devour it with greed when
ever it is to be found. It is for this
purpose, probably, that they eat large
quantities of soft coal, which contains a
large amount of sulphur. Perhaps this
is the most economical method of supply
ing hogs with sulphur during the winter,
when they require a good deal of carbon.
But in the summer it is better to feed it
to them in substances which contain
less carbon on account of iheir producing
less heat. Mustard is one of the best
things tor this purjiose, and some of it
should Iw sown in every pasture into
which hogs are turned, li hogsare kept
in, or iii small yards, it is well to supply
them with the wild mustard that grows
in the fields or highways, or to cultivate
sonic of the lietter varieties for them.
They will eat it, leaves, flowers, seeds

Probably the heaviest wholesale salt
ing of the land is that mentioned in the
Michigan Farmer, where a Mr. J-'mith,
near l'fltroit, received a carload of refuse
wait from the sail works. Intending to
spread it a* an experiment upon one
hundred acre- of land, but by a mistake
of the hired man. the whole ten tons
were applied to ten acres, 01 a ton to the
acre.
Now for the result: The land was a
sandv loam, two fee! deep, overlying a
stifl lay subsoil, and was thoroughly
drained with tiles. The field on which
the salt was spread aud recently been
seeded with winter rye and timothy seed.
The water from the drains was so salt
during the next few months as to lie un
fit for drinking, but ill spile of the
application, and contrary to the expect
ation-.<l .Mr. Smith and the hired man,
both rye and timothy survived and made
fill! craps, although the rye was retarded
somewhat iu its growth. Clover seed
was sowed ami harrowed in, in the spring
following, and during that season and
ihe next, very heavy crops of grass were
taken oil—over three tons per acre—B}
by • - tiinate. Ihe field was also remark
ably free from all descriptions of insects
—neither grub, wire worm, earth worm,
or maggot could he found, and even
grasshoppers seemed to have all been
destroyed or repulsed, for none were to
be seen.
That serious results did not follow, is
probably due to the underdraining of the
land, which allowed the saturated water
to pa s quickly away. Wc may well
believe licit t)ii‘application was death to
insect life in the soil.

If poultry l ave the range of woodland,
decaying logs, leaves to lie turned ovor
and searched, now and then a plowed
field to hunt over, they will not lack so
much of animal food . Imt where their
range is limited it must be looked after,
or your poultry is apt to prove a failure.
To supply this food, 1 have an arrange
ment with our village butcher. I leave

pieces, es|ieeially bones, ele.; this I take

. I which with a sharp hatchet I chop
meat, lames and all, in small pieces so
they can swallow them. This is the feed
they appear to relish the most, and
never thrive extra well without it. But
you should not forget that you can feed
too much meat at a time ; you can ruin
a Hook by letting them gormandize on

Nuts are but seeds, and different from
fruits in having hard shells without any
soft or pulpy inclose re. From the
eerliext times nul, especially acorns and
chestnuts, have been used for food, and
ai the present day in southern Europe
chestnuts form a large portion of the
food of the laboring classes, who, besides
eating them raw and roasted, make pud
dings of them and polenta for pastry.
I he chestnut is the most farinaceous and
the least oily of all the nuts, and there
fore it is the most eay of digestion, but
it requires boiling or roasting to burst
the starch cells and render it digestible.
The chestnuts of southern Europe are
far superior in size and jierfection to
those that grow in colder climates.
Though little used on our tables, they
make delicious desserts.
The walnut is a native of Persia, and
,t- fruit is much used in the green state
a- pickle. This nut is very oily, and on
the continent its oil, when fresh, is used
iu cooking as a substitute for olive oil.
In Switzerland the poor people use the
refuse matter after the oil is extracted,
for bread. Walnuts aud hickory nuts
are often used by fancy cooks for short
piling and flavoring cake; the addition of
these nuts makes a delicious but very in
digestible article.
Acorns from remote antiquity have
been used as food for man and animals
The ancient Britons lived mostly on
acorns; so, says Galen, did the Arca
dians. They were piepared in many
shapes, boiled ami roasted, dried and
ground and made into bread. At present
they are chiefly used for fattening hogs,
deer and poultry, though in Norway and
Sweden they are boiled and mixed with
corn meal to make bread.
Hazelnuts and filberts are the fruits
of the same tree, the former in its wild
and the latter in it- cultivated state
These nuts are quite free from oil. At
desserts tliev are eaten with sait.
Fresh roasted peanuts are very agree
able in their flavor and quite nutritious.
Instead of being munched between meals
in all sorts of places, if they were eaten
at the table as a part ol the meal and
thoroughly masticated, they would prove
more w holesome.
The cocoanut is a product of one of
the palms, and grows abundantly in all
tropical regions. The kernel, in its fresh
state, is very nutritive, and when grated
makes excellent cakes or fritters. The
milk of the cocoanut forms a delicious
beverage in its native country ; a large
nut when fresh will give a half pint of
milk. When it is veiy young the pulp
is ha soft that it may be eaten with a
spoon, and the shell is so thin and trans
parent that it may be used as a lantern.
The oil obtained by pressure from the
kernel is used for burning in lamps'and
lor making soap. There is no part of the
tree hut is employed for some useful
purpose, though with respect to fruit the
cocoanut is one of the least productive
of the palm tribe. One tree in good soil
produces about one hundred cocoanuts
annually.
."uveet almonds are nutritive, but diffi
cult of digestion. The brown husk that
surrounds the kernel is unwholesome,
and on account of its injusiotts qualities
almonds should always he blanched.
This is done by simply pouring water
over the kernels. Ritter almonds are
poisonous to all classes of animals.
Though they do not contain prussic acid,
yet, when chewed, a chemical change is
effected by whieli prussic acid is formed.
The essence of bitter almonds is a most
potent poison,though itisusedextensively
for flavoring. In the hands of a careless
or ignorant cook it is dangerous, and
there are a great many flavorings that
could well take its place altogether.

Frankincense, which was also used in
the worship of the true God, and on the
altars of the heathen temples, was ob
tained from trees which grew in Arabia
Felix.. The incense tree- grew only in
that part ol Arabia inhabited by the Sa
bictis, and so strict were their law® respect
ing them, that jxwsons were not permit
ted even to see the trees, except those
appointed, to take care of them. The
valley where they grew was surrounded
by mountains, and was situated eight
days’journey (rom Sabota, (now (sauna,)
the capital, whiiher the incense was con
veyed on camels ; and it was forbidden,
on pain of death, to outer the eitv with
this drug, excent at one particular gate,
where the priests took a tenth part for
their god Sabis, and no person could
either buy or sell it till this duty was
discharged. The Gebanites were the
only people allowed to carry it out of the
country. They also paid a toll to their
sovereign. It was taxed again at Gaza,
and by the time the kiugs, the priests,
the secretaries, the wardens of the temp.es
and various officer- had levied their con
tributions on this drug, hut little was left
to pay the great charge of bringing it to
the coast. At the time the frankincense
was taken to Alexandria to he tried, re
fitted, ami made up for sale, the workmen
were attired only in short trousers, which
were sewed up and sealed, to prevent the
possibility of their concealing any port ion
ot this valuable drug. Their heads were
fixed in a mask of caul, lest they should
secrete the smallest j>ortion in their
mouths or ears. They were not suffered
to depart after all these precautions with
out a strict examination.— Murray.

A .Sympathizing Friend.
One of the women who called upon a
recently bereaved wife to sympathise
with her was .singularly endowed with
an experience which enabled her to enter
fully into the feelings of the sufferer.
She wasatall, masculine-iooking woman,
but she possessed a delicacy of perception
w.iich was remarkable. She had been
in to view the body, and was now with
the widow. She said :
“He seems to have gone peaceful
like? ’
“ Yes, ’’ murmured the mourner.
“ That’s a blessing to you, and some
times that should be a comfort to you.
,tusl think how you’d feel if he’d went
the other way. There’s no bellin’. I
know a woman whose man died in such
agony that his face was perfectly dread
ful to look at. You couldn’t look at it.
I’ve lost three husbands, but they all,
thank heaven, went easy, [don’t know
hew my present husband will go. I

hundred husbands than to have one go
miserable. You don’t know what an
awful thing it is to have to -lip away
with a fuss. Every one of my men went
as if they wanted to go, and when they
were laid out they did you good to look
at’em. Why, some folks cauie in twice

Their faces was just as calm as could be ;
not stuck-up, 1 don’t mean, but sort of
peaceful like.”
American Affairs Abroad.
The Pall Mall Gazette condenses from
the Allgemeine Zeitung a story of mat
ters in Mexico which most amusingly
illustrates the careless lasbion in which
European journalists even of high repute
are content to deal with American ques
tions. General Benavides is described
in it as “Revaciles” and as a “gieat
strategist,” which is particularly odd,
since the German government declined
to receive him when President Lerdo
appointed him minister in Berlin pre
cisely because he had written a work de
preciating the German campaign of 1870.
We are also informed that “two Mexican
emissaries, (lenera! Valloja and Henot
Triable, have been sent to .San Francisco
to obtain new concessions for the raiiway
from Arizona, aud another line, of great
importance to both states, is to be build
from Laredo to Leon.” The conversion
of an American speculator. Mr. Friable
into a Mexican “Senor Triable,” is not of
much moment, perhaps; but why two
Mexican emissaries should go to San
Francisco to get “concessions” for a
railway to Arizona ought to pass the
comprehension, one would think, even of
the urdinary German or English news
paiier reader. And then those “ two
