MEXICAN SOLDIERS.
THK1H GREAT POWERS Off
ENDURANCE ON THE MARCH.
Toiling Along the Hot Plateaus for
Honrs at a Stretch.
In the Mexican service as in our
own, tho garrisons throughout the
country are changed in due order
from post to post, so that the soldier's
life is pretty evenly divided between
the hard places and tho easy ones.
Even tho lard places, however, in
some respects are not so hard as those
to which our own troops arc accus-
tomed; for Mexican garrisons arc
maintained not in desolate frontier
forts, but for the most part in fairly
good barracks in cities and towns.
When Indian campaigning is in order,
the field force is detached from the
nearest available point; and when tho
campaign is ended, tho troops como
back to civilization again. On the
other hand, the Mexican soldier is fed
mainly upon beaus and Indian-corii;
his bed iu barracks usually is his al¬
lotted place on tho floor, where lie
sleeps rolled up in liis blanket; and on
the march—since the army practically
is destitute of a baggage train—he has
to carry the whole of his kit in addi¬
tion to iris arms.
The lack of a baggage train is felt
with especial severity when a regiment
js transferred to a new post, for the
soldier then has to choose between
what few belongings ho has gathered
about him, and carrying them with
him on his own back. Fortunately
for his comfort in this situation—his
pay being small and his fondness for
gambling large—lie is not often heav¬
ily laden with personal property; but
his lading of arms, accoutrements, and
mess properties usually gives him
about as much of a load as lie can very
well dispose of.
Sometimes the regimental band plays
“La Golondrina”—which is the near¬
est equivalent in Mexican popular
music to “Home Sweet Home!”—as
the men file out from their quarters,
form in column, and set off to the new
station to which they have been as¬
signed. But this touch of the musical
proprieties is less often added than
omitted. As a rule, tho regiment just
walks away, the men in tolerably good
form while traversing the streets of
the city which they arc leaving; and
then, being fairly out on the highway,
going along with ragged files and
pretty much as they please. Their
service uniforms—an admirably sens¬
ible dress, consisting of blouse and
trousers of brown linen, linen-covered
caps, and samlals—arc not especially
soldier-like, according to our notions;
but to this light rig they unquestion¬
ably owe in part their extraordinary
capacity to withstand fatigue.
Marching on the Mexican plateau is
n severe strain upon both muscles and
nerves. Unless some especial purpose
is to be served, garrisons are shifted
in the dry season, when the roads are
ankle-deep with dust, ami when tlie
sun beats down, hot and strong, from
a relentlessly dear sky, and casts upon
everything a blinding glare. It is the
way of roads in Mexico, especially in
the Northern states, to seem intermin¬
able. One low ridge of rocky hills if
ascended, and from its crest anothet
like ridge is seen half a dozen miles
away across an arid valley, over which
the waves of heat shimmer and undu¬
late, nnd in which the only vegetation
—if so cheerful a word may be used to
describe such brown and yellow bleak¬
ness—is thorny cactus, tufts of Span-
ish-bayonet, and a few distorted and
scraggly pita palms—a desolation so
complete that it seems unnatural and
unreal.
All day long, saving only tho hot
hnlt at noon, the march continues
tlirough this utter dreariness, op-
pressed by the blighting sunlight, the
head of the column (where the office.'
in command rides in plucky erectness)
raising a cloud of dust that grows
thicker aua heavier with each succes-
five file, until the rear-guard literally
is lost in its dark density. The smaller
streams and many of the larger ones
arc dried up, and a draught of fresh
water by-the-way is a joy impossible;
the water in the canteens grows hot in
the fiery rays of tho sun, and never
anywhere is there so much as a hand’s-
breadth of shade. And yet such is the
power of endurance that these wiry
Mexican soldiers possess, Hie men
rarely become exhausted by the way;
and at night, when a halt is made at
some little town, or at some hacienda
where water can be obtained, and
when the cold delicious wind sweeps
down refreshingly from the libB, they
arc as lively, and go at their rations of
frijoles and tortillas with as much zest
as though their eight or ten hours of
toiling through heat and dust had been
no more than a paseo—an agreeable
stroll.
It should be, and doubtless is. a
cause for thankfulness throughout tho
Mexican army that with the building
cf the new railroads, by which all the
important cities iu the republic, ex¬
cepting Caxaca, Durango, and the
forts on the west coast, have been con¬
nected, the arduous marching hereto¬
fore attendant upon garrison transfers
iu great part has been done away with.
Lemons weighing nearly a pound
eaeh are common iu Florida.

l:\rUtIMI.MS WITH I’EAS.
Fens arc more hardy than any other
garden vegetables, and a slight frost
will not injure them. But they may
be sown too early, for all that. The
condition of soil and air at the time
seed is put in the ground lias appar¬
ently more influence than heat or cold
afterwards. In some experiments re¬
ported a year ago it was found that
the peas planted during a warm day,
and followed by warm weather, for
24 or 48 hours after, grew, blossomed,
and bore fruit ready for picking earlier
than pens planted on like soil a week
earlier, when both air and soil were
loo cold for germination. A quick
start in growth, even with so liardv a
vegetable as the pea, counts for much,
and is even more important for vege¬
tables like corn and beans, that only
grow in a warmer temperature.—

Win SALT SHOWS ON 111 TTEIt.
Henry E. Alvord says in the Chicago
Times: It is not uncommon to see
butter in rolls or prints, of good
quality and tolerably fresh, with a
coating of salt crystals all over the
outside, giving it a siale and unpleas-
ant appearance. This tray be caused
in several ways. If the salt used is of
poor quality, and particularly if it is
too coarse in grain, it fails to be well
incorporated in the butter, and, chang¬
ing to brine after the rolls have been
made up, it conies to the surfaco and
takes the form of a crust. The finest
and best salt, not worked into the but¬
te.', will act the same way. Again, if
there is more moisture left in the bu'-
ter than it will naturally ho d, the salt
joins with this extra water to form
brine; this brine finds its way to the
< ntside, evaporates, and leaves
tiie salt covering. The best m ans,
therefore, of avoiding this diffi¬
culty is to make the butter by granu¬
lar method, wash it. very thoroughly,
and allow it to drain and dry off well,
while still in the granular form, be¬
fore adding the sail. Then mix in the
salt as thoroughly as possible, having
it of the be t quality and as fine as
can be got; allow it to stand a little
while before working and putting into
its final form. This gives an oppor¬
tunity for all the salt to disolve before
the working and then for removing all
surplus brine. All butter, however,
contains a pretty largo percentage of
moisture in tho form of brine, and it
must be kept in a moist atmosphere or
else the water of the brine will evapo¬
rate more or less, ’caving tho salt vis¬
ible on the outside. Any good butter
will show this dry salt if exposed long
enough in very dry air.
A 1‘itlZK CltOl' THAT I'AID.
Many farmers, while approving of
large crops,believe they are not profit¬
able. But Milton G. Shaver’s experi¬
ence in competing for the American
Agriculturist oat prize last year, in
Ciynga Coun'y, New York, resulted
in a yield of (17 bushels per acre by
methods whicli any practical farmer
may adopt. A sandy loam soil was
chosen that bad been treated as is
common in that region, It grew corn
and potatoes in 1885 with very little
manure, was in barley the next year.
and was sown witb fall wheat after a
very light coating of manure, yielding
about twenty bushels per acr.-. The
grass seed failing to catch, the land
was planted to potatoes in 1888, re¬
ceiving ten two-horse loads of strawy
stable manure. It was plowed with a
two-horse team, and worked for half
a day wi h the spring-tooth harrow.
After once harrowing, 150 pounds of
phosphate were sown broadcast; it was
again ban-owed, a bushel of Swedish
oats were sown broadcast, followed by
the harrow time. Then for the third
two bushels more seed was drilled in
with S50 pounds of phosphate.
Finally, the land was rolled, as this is
considered indispensable for all spring
crops. Air. Shaver says : “I am
seventy years old, and never sa w a
handsomer or stouter pi ce of straw,
and bat for the wet weather it would
have yielded 100 bu-hels per acre. It
weighed thirty-nine pounds per bushel,
but no other oats in this region will
Weigh over thirty pounds per bushel,
or yield over thirty bushels per acre."
Good seed, good fertilizers and
thorough preparation of the soil did it.
Why will farmers persist in sowing
common or poor oats on Illy-prepared
soil when the same effort can be made
to produce twice the result?—[Ameri¬
can Agriculturist.
SHEEP-KILLING DOGS.
A dog that kills sheep habitually
should bo confined. If it is thought
to be valuable by its owner it is worth
being cared for and kept nt home
where it can do no harm. The whole
question in regard to dogs and sheep
seems to be considered from a wrong
point of view. There are oilier points
of value than mere money profit, and
although a dog may not be of any
pecuniary protii to its owner, yet the
owner lias an equal right to keep it as
the owner of sheep to keep them. To
kill off all the dogs would bo exceed¬
ingly unwise, for they destroy a large
quantity of vcrmiiic and arc useful iu
other ways, and not one in fifty of
them perhaps ever attacked a slice]).
But the owner of sheep bus a right to
the inviolability of his property against
trespass by a strange dog as by a per¬
son; and the owners of dogs should
be compelled to keep them ou their
own premises or suffer the same penal¬
ty for the trespass as if it were com¬
mit ed by a person. This would bo
an equality of rights and of responsi-
bilitic*. And sheep owners should
make an cffoit to secure a law to this
effect, if the owner of a trespassing
dog should be lined or imprisoned in
default of payment for a trespass,
sheep would soon live in peace, but to
tax the dogs is clearly unjust.—[New
York Times.
KAIi.M AND (.AUDEN NOTES.
Bad plan—to borrow or lend tools.
This isn’t the year to sow foul seed.
“Haste makes waste” o:i the farm.
Charred corn is good for poultry—•
they relish it.
Manure tramped down by live stock
does not tirefang.
Be careful not to overfeed if you
want eggs regularly.
Bran and buttermilk make a good
ration for laying hens.
Never drive milch cows or fattening
6lock faster than a walk.
Six trees suitable for special posi¬
tions: Sycamore, Black birch, Ash,
Black Walnut, Chestnut, Beech,
Movable loostB arc the best. Never
put up roosts so that they cannot be
easily moved at any time desired.
Five desirable trees for lawn and
yard: Tulip tree, Bed oak, Willow
oak, Black cherry and Sweet gum.
It is understood that a profit of one
or two dollars can be made from each
lien annually, according to the locality
in which you live, as the price varies
in different places.
Milk is one of the best foods for
young or adult fowls that can be had.
They enjoy it hugely and thrive won¬
derfully upon it. It is also good for
water fowls. If you have any milk to
spare see that the poultry get their
share.
If you want trees that will grow
where nothing else, will, 6ct out these:
Silver maple, Carolina poplar, or Box
elder. They are easily transplanted,
grow rapidly, Imt are short lived, lia¬
ble to injury, sprout at tho roots, soon
become scraggy looking unless spe¬
cially attended.
When slu?ep appear to be blind with¬
out any apparent cause it is probably
due to indigestion and its result on tho
brain. The remedy is to give two
ounces of raw linseed oil, to act as a
purgative, and change ttie food, giv¬
ing only nutritious and digestible feed¬
ing. A feed once a day of bran,
sta’ded and given cold, with a little
ginger and Peruvian bark, powdered,
will be useful.
Natural Gas.
Natural gas was discovered in pay¬
ing quantities, and its “boom” began
in 188.i. At the end of three veers its
annua) displacement of coal was 12,-
90G, 000 tons, estimated in value at
$ 20 , 000 , 000 , which is believed to be
only about half the rate of the present
displacement. There are now more
than 9000 miles of mains, exclusive of
smaller conveying pipes. The cheap¬
ness of the gas and the enterprise of
strongly competing companies have
been the principal stimulants in its in¬
troduction. These competitions have
resulted in the rapid acquirement and
development of territory, and in very
many ca^c* gas is furnished free to
consumers. Not counting tho hun¬
dreds and thousands of companies
that have organized to prospect, boro
we is, strike water and quit business,
tho total capitalization in the name of
natural gas in (his country exceeds
$100,000,000. Recent as has been (lie
great uses of natural gas, it has been
known for ina ty years. For example,
Frcdonia, N. Y., lias been using it for
half a century. General George
Washington, the father of our country,
was the first well-known owner of
natural gas stock, he having, while en¬
gaged in a salt well enterprise, pur-
chased the burning springs, in the
Kanawha Valley of Virginia.

Clam nnd Lobster I,ore*
“How do you tell a good clam?”
ejaculated the fish-dealer. “Oh, squat
him. If he comes right open again lie
is weary for salt water, and it is not
fresh in the ordinary sense of the
word. Any live clam who is squeezed
knows enough to shut his mouth and
keep it so. It is only worn-out fool-
clams who open their shells again im¬
mediately. Freshly dug clams are
mostly closed up, anyway, ft makes a
heap of difference whether the clam is
fresh, though. You ought to know if
you have ever eat ’em. I hate a clam
that’s got homesick and hangs his
tongue out all day iu the basket. I'd
rather cat rotten app'es. A lobster!
Well, a good lobster weighs some¬
thing. If you want to buy lobster
you want to, and you don’t want shells
full of wa'or and air. Every lobster’s
got bis name on him, so the old salts
say. Look on one of his claws when
be comes from the water. Yon can
see it better then than when be is
older and has been boiled, lie has a
name, or the year lie was born, or
something else on it. Some arc named
Bob and some Dick. Let one of ’em,
though, gel a big bite on your linger
and liis name ’ll be ‘Jcuhosaphat !’
with accent on the Jee. They’re funny
fellows — clams and lobsters. You
know that a clam’s head ain’t liis head,
don’t you? Course, you did. liis
mouth Is way round on the other side
of his shell. The ‘head’ is the siphon
where lie sucks in water one way and
spouts it out the other. You've got to
get acquainted with clams to like them
in the flesh. Fried clams is another
matter.— [Lewiston (Me.) Journal.
