HOW TO LIVE LONG.
Some 6f the Principal Indica¬
tions of Longevity.
HabltN and Conditions Which
Tend to Lengthen Life.
A physician who issued a work on
the sul ject of longevity, early in the
present century, stated “that it would
npj eir that tho principal natural indica.
tions of a long life are: to be descend¬
ed, at least by one side, from long-
lived parents; to be of a calm, con¬
sented, and rheerful disposition; to
havo a just symmetry or proper confor¬
mation of par.'s, a fu'l cheat, well-
formed j lints snd limbs, with a neck
ancl head large rather than small in pro¬
portion to tho s'zj of tho body, and to
bo a long and sound sleeper." In the
courtc of his hints, he informs ua that
“the stomach ought never to be over¬
loaded with food, but that exercise,
food, drink, sleep, etc., should be
taken in moderation.
“All food should be duly masticated
bifore being swallowcl, and a variety
of didies ought not to be eaten at the
Mime time. Extremes of heat and cold,
with re-pect to food, drink, and air,
are eq.ully to bo guarded against.
S eep ought not to continue leas than
tix hours, nor exceed eight."
Another writer states that, “exercise
contributes to the preservation of human
life; it invigorates our faculties; it dis¬
sipates all the superfluous humors of a
plethoric habit; it is a gain of time, the
oneuny of idleness, tho duty of the
young, and the delight of the aged.”
Professor Hufeland saya, “peace of
mind, cheerfulness and contentment are
the feundation of all happiness, all
health and long life. Certain habits
nnd dispositions of mind, auch as
melancholy, care, dejection, fear,
anxiety, faint-heartedness, and, in par¬
ticular, avarice and hatred, which are
hostile to life, claim a distinguished
Tank among those means which tend to
shorten it." These are said to destroy
digestion and assimilation, and slacken
the vigor of the heart.
Bir William Temple waa of opinion,
“that great temperance; open air; easy
labor; little care; simplicity of diet,
rather fruits and plants than flesh; and
water, which preserves the radical
moisture without too much increasing
the radical heat,”—were conducive to
good hoalth and long life.
Dr. Fothergill, who treated the sub¬
ject in an able manner a century ago,
observes that “the duo regulation oi
(he passions contributes, perhaps more
than nny othor cause, to health and
longevity. The animating passions,
such as joy, * hope, love, etc., whon
kept within proper bounds, gontly ex¬
cite tho nervous influence, promote an
f quablo circulation, and are highly con-
ducibe to health; while the depressing
affections, such as grief, fear and
despair, produce the opposite effect. ”
Longlife, in his opinion, isdepondent
on, “air and climate, meat and drink,
motion and rojt, sloop and watching,
and affections of the mind; all of which
ought to be adapted to the age, tem¬
perament, ami constitution. Freah air
is more immediately necessary to life
than food. Tho plain diet anl invigor¬
ating employment of a country life are
acknowledged, on all hands, to bo
highly conducive to health and lon¬
gevity; whi'o tho luxury and refinement
of large cities aro allowed to bo equally
destructive to the human species, and
this consideration alone, perhaps, more
than counterbalances all the boasted
privileges of ruperior elegnnee and
civilization resulting from a city life.”
In support of this, he slated that “the
number of deaths in London from 1728
to 1758 amounted to 750,322, and that
in all this prodigious number only 242
persons survived the'r hundredthyear.”
Ho further observes that, “man is by
nature a field animal, and seems des¬
tined to rise with tho sun, and to spend
a large portion of his timo in the open
rir, to inuro his body to robust exercise
i nd the inclemency of the seasons, and
to make a plain, homely repast only
wheu hunger dictates. But art has
studioudy defeatod tho kind intentions
<f nature, and by enslaving him to all
tile blandishments of senso has left
him, a'a«! au easy victim to folly and
caprice .”—Yankee Blade.
“Scoop a Little to Boot."
Abcu: the t mo that D.miel Drew
began his Wall street career he was up
in the country ono timo to visit some
friends, and two farmers called upon
him to decide a case. One had sold
the other five i> ishcls of wheat, and
proposed to mea urc it in a half bushol,
and sweep tho t ip of a measure with a
stick. The other obj cted, and Uncle
Daniel was asked to decide.
“Well, legally speaking, a bushel is
only a bushel,’’ he answered.
“And can the measure be swept offl”
“I think it can.”
“Wi at with?”
“Wei 1 , if I was soiling wheat I
should probably use baif the head of a
flour barrel."
“Which (dge of it?’’
“Gent'emen, that h a paint I cannot
now decide on," signed the old man.
“If I was selling to a widow or a
preacher I am certain that I should
sweep the me a urc with a straight edge,
but if I was-selling to a man who
pastures his cows in the road and hi*
pigs in hia neighbor’s corn. I’m afraid
I should use the circular side and scoop

fOll FARM AND GARDEN.
fau. cAi.vres.
Many of the best cows aro now bred
to drop their calve, in the fall, and
thero is a general belief among farmors
that fa’l calves are hard to rear, If a
warm stnb'e is provided, one wholly or
partly underground Is best; this med
not bo the case. With plenty of the
right kind of food, and care in giving it
at milk warmth, a fall calf can bo got
through its first winter more easily
than one dropped lait spring, and
which is expected to live on coarse
feed. The fall calf can usually bo bred
at an earlier age, and this will increase
its value for duiry purposos__ American

LIBERAt, STI1ASY BEUDINO.
The farmer who raises wheat or oats
or rye largely, and has not stablos fitted
with manure gutters and reservoirs, wili
do well to use straw liberally for bed¬
ding. If enough is used, it will absorb
nearly all the liquid manure. The liq¬
uid manure will hasten the decomposi¬
tion of the straw moro rapidly, con¬
verting it into a valuable fertilizer.
Without the straw or some similar sub¬
stance, the decomposition of the liquid
manure is so rapid as to be destructive,
and a part of its value is lost, Straw
is a very imperfect conductor of heat,
hence, when it is used liberally for bed¬
ding, much less food ia consumod in
the production of animal heat, and the
animals are healthier and thriftier. —
American Agriculturist.
WIRE FENCES.
One of the neatest and most durable
xwices that can be made is a woven-
wire netting. The meshes should he
sufficiently close together to keep out
chickens, 2x4 is small enough for all
practical purposos. While the netting
alone will make a very complete fcnco,
it can be improved by putting a six-
inch fencing plank at the bottom, and
stretching the bottom wire just abovo
this. Caro should bo taken to stretch
the selvage wire tight, and the staples
well. If the garden is located wliero
the fence must keep out horses or
cattle, it can be made more effective by
stretching a barb wire six inches abovo
tho top of either the netting or the
paling. Either of these makes a better
garden fence than either plank or rails,
while, if tho work is carefully done, it
will be much more effective .—Prairie
Farmer.
WINTER rnOTKCTlQN FOR GRATES,
it occasionally happens that an ex¬
ceptionally cold winter brings the
subject of winter protection very
forcibly to tho nature of all who grow
grapes. Even the hardiest grapes aro
sometimes more or less injured, and
whilst on tho othor hand there arc
seasons so mill that grape-vines pass
through them equally well without
protection, yet the most prudent course
is to persistently anl regular¬
ly protect them during winter. To do
this in the best and easiest way, prune
in tho fall and lay the canes upon the
ground covering them with earth to the
dopth of threo inches. This will afford
sufficient protection to even the touder-
est varieties. The hardier sorts often
receive all tho protection necessary by
simply being laid upon the ground, but
a slight covering renders it more ccr-
tain and is very little trouble. At the
north tho snow provides this and is
belter than nny covering we may de¬
vise.— Orchard and Oar den.
TO GET PURE WATER.
The temperature of water for horses
is not so much an object as tho purity
of it. While it is best to havo it c ol,
it is moro important to havo it freo from
all impurities. All river water con¬
tains microscopic germs; nnd great ad¬
vantage is found from its Alteration and
the addition cf a little sulphur.
An easily made filter is as
follows: Over each trough a
barrel ia arranged to receive the
water, which is ma lo to 11 .w through
the lu.rcl to tho watering trough. F.U
the barrel one-third full of coarsely
ground charcoal, over which sprinkle a
little pondered sulphur. Upon the
charcoal place some brush, nnd on this
place clean gravel until the barrel is
half full, or a little more, with the fil¬
tering material. This fi.ter will last for
rix months or moro without cleaning,
aud will supp'y clean water that the
horses lovo to drink and by the uso of
which they aro kept in first-rate health,
without colics or other sickness. In the
country, pure spring or wall water, al¬
ways filtered, should b3 provided.—
Uorse and Stable.
RAISE VOUR OWN COWS.
A half dozm good cows aro worth a
dozen poor ones. It takes as much
food and care to keep a poor cow as it
does a good one, and while the former
barely returns enough at most to “pay
her way,” the latter returns a comforta¬
ble profit to her owner. Those farmers
who are looking around for really good
cows know how difficult it is to bu/
one, when found, at a price they can
afford to pay. Yet they frequently
keep “looking around” for several
years, when they might, in the same
time, have raised several choice cow,
themselves. Of course it tares time
to rear a good-sizad herd of
profitable cows, but this expenditure of
time is only ia lieu of the money ex¬
penditure absolutely necessary to pur¬
chase a desirablo an imal. As a farmer
usually can spare the time better than
he can spaie tie cash, it is easy to see
what i* the best course to pursue.
There are but fuw farmers who do not
now havo at least one, two or throe
cows fairly good, which can bo used as
a start in improvement. Do not use a
scrub bull merely because your neigh¬
bor happens to mvo him and charges
nothing, but rather pay a fair price for
a good, puro-brod ono. Save nil the
heifer calves and carefully raise
them. When they are about
threo years old, and less than
four years from the timo the improve¬
ment is started, you will have fino young
cows. Othor calves will also bo coming
on, from them as woll as from tho
original cows, itnd in five or six years
thero will be q iito a herd; the com¬
mon, unprofitable cows having been
worked off to tho butcher. Many a
farmer wishos ho had commenced five
or six years ago. Ho does not think
that he svill likoly say tho samo thing
five or six years lienee, yet does not
commence now. Good, pure-bred bulls
have now bccomo so well distributed,
that the use of ono can usually bo
secured without much difficulty, while
a good bull calf can be bad from such
stock, eligible to entry, for a com¬
paratively low prico. Enough can, as a
rule, be counted on from neighboring
farmers’ herds to pay for his keep.—
American Agriculturist.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Feed puts tho most flesh on young
bones.
Keep pieces of chalk where the young
animals can lick them.
Tho shelter that shuts out both pure
and cold air is not a profitable struct-
urc.
Every animal must speak for itself,
and only its pedigree can speak for its
offspring.
The coming farmer will trust lees to
his eye and more to foot-rules and
pound-weights.
The value of pedigree is not ia its
vouching for ancestry, but in its vouch¬
ing for off-pring.
Bust and rot do more for the imple¬
ment maker in winter than wear and
tear do in summer. .
The secrets of large yields always
and everywhere are rich soil, good seed
and thorough tillage.
The farmer who makes his own pork
and beans puts another bond on health
and pays himself for so doing.
A few fowls well cared for are more
profitable than a largo number neg¬
lected. This has boen fully demonstrated.
A farmer who has no neighbors with¬
in half a mile can profitably keep a
flock of geese. Geese are liable to tres¬
pass on the neighbors.
Unless your grouud is vsery rolling
draw nnd spread manuro where it is to
bo used as soon as made. Tuis saves
work and saves manure.
Nature is fond of balancing things.
When she gives a big crop of hay it is
found it is lacking in feedang value as
compared with the short erop of a dry
season.
A good crop of both cotfn and weeds
cannot bo grown on the Barao ground at
the samo time, any more than two rail¬
way trains can pass each other on the
samo track.

The Champion Pork Eaters.
Tho Chinese, says Frank Carpenter,
are the greatest pork eaters of the
world. The pigs are the scavengers of
the city, ami they root their way into
every qu trier, and turn up the ground
and wallow in the mire on tho very
edge of the emperor’s palace in Pekin.
You see pigs for sale in every market,
and the sucking pig is the piece de re¬
sistance at every feast. It is never
eaten in the roast, however, but is
hashed up into bits and stewed, and
this is the case with all tho Chinese
meats. Small bits are a necessity
whore the chop-sticks are used, and
the result is that mo3t of the Chineie
dishes are soups or stews or roasts cat
flue.

land, being part of tho 160-acre
occupied by General U. S. Grant and

they lived in a log cabin which Jeff
Sappington, C. D. Wolff, P. S. Lan-
ham and other neighbors of the old
commander helped him to ‘ ‘raise”
shortly after the wedding in 1847. Mr.
Conn bought the wholo of the Giant
property, containing 723 acres, at $80
an acre, in June, 1888, and the historic
interest connected with the place is
mainly what stimulated him to purchase
it. Since then he has frequently re¬

Marry Early, If at All.
The growing disposition of men to
marry lute in lito is a very serious evil of
modern society. Buch men usually marry
younger -women, who, in the natural or¬
der of things, may be expected to survive
them. into Even where widowers eDtcr again
wives matrimony, they do not often take
for women of a corresponding, or
an approximately corresponding age, but
young maidens who are likely to be left
widows. The greater longevity of wo¬
men has even induced somo philosophers
to advise that, on the contrary, the wife
should be older than the husband; and
there have been somo notable marriages
where that was the case. The law of na¬
ture commonly stands in opposition be denied to
such unions, though it cannot
that the woman with whom a lad first
falls in love is very apt to be much his
senior. Ho would marry her if she would
have him for a husband; but she looks on
him as a mere boy, and usually refuses to
take his love seriously. Tne natural
tendency of women to marry older men
seems to be as strong as it is for men to
marry younger women, else the amorous
lads would receive an amount of encour¬
agement which might put the average su¬
periority in age on the side of the brides,
it is best for the man and for the race
that lie should marry early, if he is to
marry between at husband all. Any and great wife disparity is misfor¬ of age
a
tune. It is better for them to grow old
togetiicr, so that in the usual course of
nature the man and the woman will reach
the end without any great difference in
time between them.
