Several of the of sheep during this period fell ill and some them died or were slaughtered. In the third period the increase per head varied from 8 ounces to 14.7 ounces daily, and here the wheat stood highest of the wholo and the crushed oats and barley lowest.—Dr. John Vodcker. A Fertilizer Hint. 3. B. S. has a light, gravelly and poor •oil which he proposes to seed to wheat with grass, and has salt, lime, plaster and ashes as a fertilizer. As tho land has never had salt or lime, their application may be very beneficial. Wo advise sow¬ ing alternate strips with the salt, lime and plaster, to see how they act. That is the only way to tell—experiment for yourself. Nor should wo bother to mix these with tho bone and ashes, but apply them separately and in varying quanti¬ ties ; but don’t get on more than two bar¬ rels of salt per acre, and less may be as well. The ashes, if pure and unleached, will contain about six per cent, of potash and two per cent, of phosphoric acid; pure fine ground bone contains about four twenty per cent, of phosphoric acid and per cent, of nitrogen (commonly called ammonia). Mixed together in equal proportions, wo have a fertilizer running two phosphoric per cent, of nitrogen, eleven per cent, of acid and three per cent, of potash; apply this at the rate of 500 pounds to 2,000 pounds per acre, ac¬ cording to your purse, aud you should get results that will please you. The bone and ashes should be composted and kept fore moist for two or three months be¬ soften using, the so that the potash will cut and bone. We should drill this in, and broadcast and harrow in the salt and plaster, be better though .—Farm broadcasting and Oaracn. for both may “The Carious in Dairying.” An Ohio farmer says iu the New York Tribunc: One comes across “queer wrin kles” in dairying; some of them really have a “scientific” side, but the operators for the life of them can give no reason for their practice. One lady says she al ways of puts each a milk pint of cold water in the cen tro pan when she “sets it;” why, she does not know, but she always has good luck getting cream. Now there is more science about this than appears on the surface. Milk contains more or less albuminous matter which makes it slightly “sticky.” In some instances this is very marked, and amounts to pronounced vis¬ cosity. Water is a solvent of it, and the addition of pure cold water makes the milk get more fluid and enables the but¬ ter fats to rise with more resistance, and hence the better cream. The cooling ef¬ fect of the water at the centre of the milk might sid more than one would think possible. The only elTeet would be that of making the milk more limpid, and would not he objectionable, but the question comes up, would there not be more milk certainty about can-pails cream rising if the were put in and set in tanks of cold water, and the lower, uni form temperature of the milk secured? Another curious custom lately came to my knowledge-that of washing out the butter with sweet skim milk, as it did not imparted give the hotter a “flat” taste like that when water was used. If old or strong butter be washed out with sweet milk, it dissolve s and liberates somo of the elements, notably acids, that cause the change in butter. I suspect this ladv churned very old, or sour cream, and the sweet milk takes out the ele ments wrought and by the chemical action of sourino, leaves the butter with a flavor not influenced by these objection able features. The thing that nil uu thoritics now sav makes butter bad (caseine) has not been got out of the but ter, and, with the little remaining de composing hastened caseine and its road sugar, it must be sooner able flavor, and on to question Had this lady churned consequent low price, oftencr, and used cream less acid, she would have found that salt and water is everyway superior to sweet milk ns an aid in butter-wash ing. able It is always safe and more protit to let the consumer judge about the “fiat” taste in butter than to trv to force upon him a flavor he has learned to avoid, The market is strongly drifting toward fresh-made butter, churned from slightly acid cream, washed free from butter milk with weak brine, and salted not to exceed a half ounce to the pound. Fattening Pig* on Pasture. A notion prevails that pigs cannot be fattened unless closely shut up in a pen. Along in September, ns soon as corn is large enough be to be fed to them, the pigs must confined in a stuffy little pen, where they cannot fjet a sniff of fresh air Or green grass. This is an unnatural nnd unreasonable theory. Animals that have ...... had the freedom of , pasture , all ,, . a range ; summer, cannot he contented when thus suddenly deprived of it; and when not contented they will not readily take on flesh. I think the idea must have origi¬ nated in the fact that a few hogs, shut away the from the main drive, will do better on same feed than the others. This separation usually occurs at fattening time. The advantage gained in this way may sometimes exceed the loss occasioned by removal from grass, and thus give rise to the notion that close confinement on a plank floor is just the thing for fattening pigs. is Again there extinct} a breed ([ am glad it is now almost that can never be fattened unless they are ringed, ham¬ strung and tied down, for they are inevit¬ able land-sharks by nature as well as by name, and will root t hemselves do wn to bristles Mid bones ifH | given space enough in which to do it.

Most people have heard of the cata combs of Paris, but few have visited them, or are aware of their quarries; vast extent. the They material were used originally building stone the Cathedral of in Notre Dame, the Hotel Cluny, the older portion of the Tuileries and many other of the public edifices of Paris having been derived from this source. Bo ex¬ tensive were their ramifications that of Paris within the walls more than a tenth part is said to have been honeycombed in this manner. It was not till within the last 100 years that the received quarries the have served the purpose or name of catacombs. Many Parisian churches and cemeteries have transferred the remains of their dead to the keeping of the catacombs. These are now under the care of a regular corps of workmen, who attend to the arrange¬ ment of the bones, keep the galleries in order, and arc constantly on the watch against subsidences of earth, which would otherwise be of frequent occurrence. The galleries have been carefully surveyed and their course compared with that of tho subjacent thoroughfares. frequent Indicating intervals, tablets arc put up at so that a skilled person can at any mo¬ ment name tha street, and even the num¬ ber of the house, which is above his head. Without such knowledge, or a competent guide, who however, woe betide the ill-fated wretch should venture to explore these grim recesses. Beneath the Rue de TAbbe de l’Eppec, just outside the Ossuaire, or catacomb proper, is seen a tomb in the angle of a wall, to which a terrible tradition at¬ taches. Here lies Philibert Aspairt, for¬ merly porter of the military hospital of Vai ae Grace.

The probability they do not. The language of tho horse is more by signs than by voice, They, however, understand tones and signs perfectly or can be made so to do. It is the tone, therefore, that should be cultivated in training horses,and, in fact, all animals, and these tones should al¬ ways he low. Hence the reins and the whip should be used principally as sig nals; the voice to indicate action or in action. The latter should “whoa” or “ho,” to stop; “back” to back up; a cluck to indicate going forward; “get on ” or “g° °>i,” to indicate increased speed, and “steady” to slow up. In this the word emphasis when is always to be on used. the last more than one is There is, however, no objection to talking sound to the horses. human They voice. like to hear the of The first thing his a colt and should be taught promply is to know name, to come at the call.

A genuine sensation was created in Chattanooga who Friday by the arrest Doyle of a man gave his name as Doyle. took supper at a Restaurant in the city Thursday proprietor, night, and refused to pay the and was in consequence arres sted. In submitting to the arrest he took occasion to lavish epithets on the propri¬ etor of the restaurant, and another war¬ rant for profanity was secured. He was taken before a city magistrate and com¬ mitted to the county jail in default of $500, and remained iu cell all night. Fri¬ day morning, on his agreement, to pay the cost of the arrest and the restaurant man the warrant was withdrawn. After this was done, he having iu the meantime taken on a good supply of whiskey, showed to the as¬ tounded officers aud bystanders rolls of greenbacks that were bestowed in various parts of his person, amounting in all to $19,000. This at once excited surprise, and it was at once set down by the offi¬ cials that Doyle was one of the notorious express robbers about which so much has recently been said. Deputy United States Marshal Hill telegraphed the man’s de¬ scription hopes at once to various places in of identifying the man but received left no answer* the Doyle, as soon as he got free, on first train for parts unknown, lie was evidently “off” in some way, and the officials think they have caught it rich if they can only find out who he is.

BUSINESS STATEMENTS. Failures In the Country During the Last Three Months. Mercantile failures for three mouths ending with Thursday, as reported by R. G. Dunn & Co., are 8,007 in number, against 3,208 for the same quarter of 1886. Liabilities for the first quarter of the present year are $32,161,000, against $29,681,000 for the corresponding quar¬ ter of 1886. The geographical distribu¬ tion of failures is somewhat unusual, the liabilities in the middle states amounting to $12,000,000, compared showing an increase of $6,000,000 as with 1886, and in New York city the liabilities for the first three months of 1887 were $5,000, 000 as compared with $2,900,000 in the corresponding quarter of lost year. In all other sections of the country, except the middle states, the failures are much less in number and amount than the average for the first quarter, and the to¬ tal result is much less than previous years. In Canada the failures for the first quarter of 1887 are 393 in number as against 389 for the corresponding quar¬ ter of last year. Liabilities for the quar¬ ter just closed are $3,602,000 as com¬ pared with $3,442,000 for the same period iu 1886. DEFRAUDINS UNCLE SAM. The U. 8.

BUUTED BY GOOD LUCK. A Waa whs €mII Nat Keep Itfeaey After Be had Waa 9AOO.OOO. Richard Penis tan has just been ad¬ mitted to the Forrest Home,in Philadel¬ phia. He has was become a rich man a few yean ago, but almost a beggar". He and his wife were of English birth. They were members of the stock com¬ pany of the Arch Street Theatre, and played ley and important Drew became parts the before lessees, Wheat- about 1852. Mrs Penistan, who died long ago, was also a playwright, and several of her plays were represented on the American stage. Soon after the dissolu¬ tion of the old Arch street company Mr. Penistan opened a drinking place. He had a large patronage, and in the course of time accumulated a good deal of money. In 1873 the official announce ment of the drawing of the Royal Ha¬ vana Lottery informed him that his $100 ticket had drawn $500,000. At this time he was the owner of sixty two horses, many of them friend* very valuable. In company wi h his Whitney, the brewer, Mr. Penistan at once went to New York and placed the ticket for collection with August Be inont, receiv¬ ing in cash, after some delay and litiga¬ tion with Mr. Whitney, who claimed a share of the pnze, which was, however, disallowed by the courts, $420,000. Penistan Upon returning sold his to place Philadelphia, Chestnnt Mr. on street, with a portion of the stock, for $54,000. In all he had undoubtedly at least $500,000. He was a genial man and had many friends, some of them true ones, who advised him to put half, it not more, of his money in a trust fund. Instead of this he began operations on Third street. Inside of t*»o years he had dropped there from $150,050 to $300,000. His dealing in horses, too, went on all the while, and he lost heav¬ ily on a stud farm near Lexington Ky. He was, besides this, badly defrauded by the agents who ran or trotted his horses in races, and his blooded colts when so d at auction, although well ad¬ vertised and of irreproachable pedigree, went for a so g, buyers combining not to bid agaiast each other, and dividing up the poorly paid for stock afterward, In fact, he was remorselessly skinned by horsemen, and in less than six years was reduced to a bare living upon the in¬ come of some few investments he had made in his wealthy days. This finally was exhausted and for some years past he has been indebted to the kindness of friends for his subsistence. He, however, bred some noted horses, one of which, Grafton, a trotter, with a record of 2:15, was sold to Robert Bon¬ ner for $15,000. Mr. I onner also bought his Lady Stewart, with a record of 2:28, the fastest time up to then that a three year old had ever made. In his prosperouo days, too, he oc¬ casionally appeared upon the stage in heavy tragedy, hiring the house him¬ self and and playing without with a good deal of spirit, not home in approval, and he now finds a the pleasant retreat endowed by the great actor, of whom he was a most fervent admirer. All his friends believe that if Richard Penistan had not drawn that lottery prizs he would to day be a wealthy man. 'Ihe Naked Truth Revealed. The New York World, in speaking of the benefits to be derived from advertis¬ ing in a home paper, says: “Many a dealer who places a $100 ad¬ vertisement in his village paper be¬ grudges his investment, wnen it is worth to him double what he pays for it. Ad¬ vertising rates of the city newspaper would astonish such business men. One column in the Chicago Tribune costs the advertiser $20,000 per annum. The New York Herald receives for its lowest price $36,563, and for its highest price $62,- 980. The New York Tribune for its lowest $20,954, and for the highest $84,- 648, and these papers, it is stated, never lack for advertisements to fill their col¬ umns,' and still there are lots of people who wonder why a country subscribers newspaper cannot be furnished to as low as the great dailies are sold for.
