UNEXPLORED AREA.
An American Wonderland in the
State of Washington.
A Drackless Waste Larger
than the Whole of Delaware.
An old friend who lias just returned
from a town of the new Western
slates, tells me, says a writer in tho
Bt. Louis Republic, that there is an
unexplored region iu the State of
Washington which is as little known
as tho interior of Africa. It is the
country shut in by tho Olympic Moun¬
tains and includes an Area of about
2500 square miles, being some 400
miles greater in extent than the whole
State of Delaware.
This trackless waste, to the positive
knowledge of old residents of the
state, has never been trodden by the
feet of man, white or Italian. The
mountains mentioned riso from tho
level country to within ten or fifteen
miles of the Straits of San Juan do
Fuca, and towering to a height of
6000 to 8000 feet, shut in this vast
unexplored area.
The Indians fear the spot as the
Javans do their “Poison Valley," and
say that no man, white or red, can
cross the great basin enclosed by the
Olympic Mountains ami live to tell tiie
story of his explorations. But the at¬
mosphere of this American wonder¬
land is not poisonous, neither is the
tangled jungle the home of wild,
fierce lieasts or dangerous serpents;
the Indians simply claim that it is in
habited by a race of men who arc so
fierce that no representative of tiie
white or red man nations could stand
before them for a moment. Being
unexplored no one can even guess at
what the physical aspect of this great
silent wilderness is. The most gen¬
erally accepted theory In regard to it
is that it consists of great valleys
stretchiug from the inward slopes of
the mountains to a groat central
basin.
This theory is supported by the fact
that, although the country around has
abundant rain, all of the streams flow¬
ing toward the four points of the com¬
pass are insignificant, and rise only on
the outer slopes of the range, none ap¬
pearing to drain the great tract shut in
by the mountains. This fact supports
the theory that the streams flowing
from the inner slopes of the mountains
feed a great interior lake, But what
drains the lake? It must have an out¬
let; can it be that this outlet is
through a subterranean river which
empties into tiie ocean, strait or
sound?
Evidently there is room for much
exploration, aud a chance to make
many new discoveries in Washington’s
great “unexplored regions.”
How to Sew Monads.
In small woumls a bit of rag will
keep the pieces of cut skin together,
but in large wounds the edges must be
mechanically brought together. Some
do this by prices of sticking plaster,
but more satisfactory results are got
by putting in a few stitches. Anyone
with a little nerve can put stitches into
tho edges of a wound. Bring them
together and keep them in contact by
tying the thread.
An ordinary needle will do, thread
it with silk, put through the skin from
the outside of flio wound niul about
one-twelfth of an inch from its edge,
draw the thread partly through, then
pierce the skin of the opposite side
from the inside of tho wound, bring
the two edges together, tio the thread
with two or three knots, and tho op¬
eration is complete. Put tho stitches
about a quarter of an inch apart, and
sew up all the wound.
Use a clean needle, nucolorod silk
thread, and dip botli into boiling water
before using.—[Hall’s Journal of
Health.
I Mosquitoes.
The bill of a mosquito is a complex
institution. It lias a blunt fork at the
head*, and is apparently grooved.
Working through thegrdbre, nnd pro¬
jecting from tho angle of tho fork, is
a lance of perfect form, sharpened
with a fine bevel. Beside it the most
perfect lance looks liko a hand-saw.
On either side of (ho lance two saws
aro arranged, wilh tho points fine and
sharp, nnd tho teeth well defined and
keen. Tho backs of the saws play
against the lance. When the mosquito
lights, with his peculiar hum, it
thrusts its keen lanco, and then en-
lar.es the aperture witli the two saws,
which piay beside the lance until the
forked bill, wilh its capillary arrange¬
ment for pumping blood, can be in¬
serted. Tbo sawing process if what
grates upon tho nerves of the victim,
and causes him to strike wildly at the
sawyer.—[New Orleans New Delta.

OVERFEEDING A TOCNO CALF.
When a young calf is gorged with
milk indigestion follows and the
stomach is clogged with a mass of
compact curd. The consequence is
that the animal becomes dull, dribbles
at the mouth, and grinds its teeth.
Tiie treatment should be to give a
teaspoonful of carbonate of soda or
salerntus iu half a pint of water,
which will dissolve the curd and aid
its passage through the intestines, in
six hours after givo one tablcspooti-
ful of raw linseed or castor oil. Offer
no food unt 11 the bowels are cleared
out, nnd then giro only one quart of
warm, fresh milk at a meal every
three hours. When a calf is drinking
milk it should bo fed slowly and with
in ervals of rest, and cold milk should
uever be given, as this chilis the
stomach and proTokes indigestion—

PREVENTING POTATO ROT.
During moist summers the loss to
the farmer from potato rot is enor¬
mous. But if tiie rot can be guarded
against we have few surer and better
paying crops. As a rule the disease
docs not begin to do great damage till
well into the summer. The latter part
of August and tiie month of Septem¬
ber are the troublesome times, conse¬
quently the better rule to follow, when
the probabilities point to a damp sum¬
mer, is to plant early, and harvest the
crop before the rot begins its ravages.
Potato beetles mint be guarded against
in some oilier way, and so must
tiic various oilier arguments
against early planting, for we
cannot afford to have our entire
crop decay iu the ground. Then,
make use of preventive measures, snch
as spraying the vines several times
during June, July and August with
tho Bordeaux mixture or other com-
pounds of copper. This may be mixed
with London purple or Paris green and
water, and thus tho potato beetles may
be killed and the rot prevented at the
same time. The progress of the dis¬
ease is from the npper parts of the
plant down. The fungoid growth
first attacks the leaves and stems and
then the roots and tubers, so that caro
should betaken to keep the foliage in
good condition by a liberal use of the
preventive mixture. Caro should be
taken, too, not to plant late crops in
low, swampy ground, as this is only
inviting the plague—[Farm, Field
and Stockman.
TIIE MERITS OF BLUE GRASS,
lie of the good qualities of blue
glass, writes an Ohio farmer, is its
strong vitality aud persistence in
growing. A blue grass pasture docs
not run out as many grasses do. It is
true that drought will dry up a blue
grass pasture until it may seem to
have been exterminated, but with the
first rains the blades will spring up,
and ina few days the whole surface
will again bo covered with living
green. For a hillside grass on lands
subject to washing, and where culti¬
vation should be avoided, it is un¬
equalled after it has obtained a perma¬
nent foothold and especially on soils
of a limestone character. This is not
an easy thing to be attained in all
cases, but it is so dcsirablo on such
lands that it is worth while to persist
in the attempt until it is accomplished.
If a soil lias enough fertility in it to
nourish grass, it can generally he
mado to grow even on quite sleep
places. In sewing it on doubtful
grounds I would always use a mix¬
ture with other grasses; tho more ve¬
rities tho bettor. In their early growth
each one that takes serves to protect
and strengthen tho other, and if any
finally survive the blue grass will.
Tho groat point is to establish a veg¬
etable growth that will hold tho soil
where it is, and for this purpose I
know of nothing bettor than blue
grass, — [New York World.
QROl’Nl) BONKS AS A FERTILIZER.
.According to experiments mado at
the New Jersoy Agricultural Station
with ground bones as a fertilizer, it
appears that ground bone is both a
phosphate and a nitrogenous manure,
insoluble in water, but when in tho
soil is decomposed and yields its con-
stituonts to the feeding plant in pro
portion to fineness. It varies hut lit.
tie in composition, and is less liable
to adulteration than most fertilizers—
being, in fact, usually pure. Ground
bones liavo a teudoncy to cake, and to
avoid this tho manufacturers mav use
other substances, which, while aiding
mechanically, reduce the chemical
value of tho mixture. Raw bone is
generally pure, but tho fat it contains
renders it loss easily decomposed.
Bones having served the purpose of
the glue-maker aro low in
nitrogen and very high in
phosphoric acid. The method now
employed of steaming the bones under
pressure improves tlieir quality with¬
out altering the amouut of the plant
food ingredients which they contain.
As tho value of ground bones de¬
pends upon compositions nnd tlieir
fineness, a chemical analysis is re¬
quired to detennino tlieir value. The
farmer must determine by crop tests
which grade ho should buy—whether,
for example, pay a dollar for teu
pounds of phosphoric acid in one con-
dltlo-, or for eiglitoeii and one-half
pounds in ano'hor fortn. Aro'ftgo

ROOTING STRAWBERRIES ON TDRE.
A writer in Gardening Illustrated
gives tbo following mode for using
small pieces of inverted turf instead
of pots for rooting strawberry runners,
wliieh appears to possess some distinct
advantages:
I am very much in favor of this
operation, and have been so for some
years. It is the next best way of
layering strawberry-runners to using
pots, and if tho young plants are in¬
tended for planting in the open quar-
ters, I would rather liavo them layered
' n ** ,an * n P°i®- My mode of
layering has been to get some good
fibrous turfs, from two to three inches
an d cut tlleRe into squares about
four inches in diameter. The man
who layers takes a number of these in
a basket with some short wooden pegs
and a trowel. Holes arc made in tho
vicinity of the runners, so as to allow
tho turfs to drop level with
tho ground, and a runner i»
pegged on tho centre of each. The
turf is used upsido down, and as there
is generally a good deal of foliage
about the strawberries at that time,
combined with the plunging of tho
turf, it is astonishing how little tho
runuers suffer from drought. The
roots penetrate the turf in a very short
time, and if the turfs are soaked in
manure water beforo being used, the
roots will quickly tako possession of
them without entering the surround¬
ing soil, and in a fortnight or so after
layering tho plants and turfs become
firmly attached. I never knew plants
layered in this cheap and simple way
to fail to bccomo quickly established
and to do well either in the open
ground or in pots fer forcing, because
they grow freely from the first and
never scein to get root-bound, as is the
case when layered in small pots.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Keep the laying hens away from the
manure pile.
Feed the moulting liens a light feed
of linseed meal daily.
If picked regularly gce30 will fur¬
nish four crops of feathers regularly.
Provido some convenient nesting
places or the hens will hide tlieir nests
out.
Fowls thrive better if given a good
variety, not only with their soft feed
but with their grain.
After goslings get well started to
feather they need very littlo attention,
as they aro very hardy.
Young tnrkoys intended for early
market must be well fed in order to
make a thrifty growth.
Generally chickens that have made
a good growth can be marketed to a
better advantage now than later.
Early in summer wo find the larva
of the grape-vine saw-fly, and a little
later in the season that of the procris
ill solid phalanxes.
Do not count on profits now on eggs
you get from your liens. At eight
and ten cents per dozen there is noth¬
ing earned on (horn.
Beds of coleus must bo clipped u
littlo from time to time to preserve an
even surface. Somo neglect to do it
and so destroy tho effect of a smooth
mass of color.
Hens, liko other beings, fo be con¬
tented, healthy and happy must not bo
id e. Drones in tho poultry yard
must not be tolerated. Don’t be a
drone yourself ami keep such stock.
Use flowers freely. Have -thorn on
the tnblo and in the house. And tho
children, let them pluck to their litt’e
hearts’ content I Tho more flowers are
picked, the more abundantly they
grow, as a rule.
Straw or hay is as good for fowls
to exorcise in during summer as Win-
tor if they bo yarded. It should not
bo put near the roosts and should be
changed every week, tho liens scratch¬
ing in it for all their grain.
Tho old strawberry bed. if too foul
to bo kept over, should be mowed and
burnt over beforo turning under, to
destroy insect pesis. Plough deeply
and sow to turnips or plant with late
cabbage. Select a fresh spot for the
new bed.

A Dog That Chooses His Own Church.
A resident of St. Thomas is the pos¬

coino out. Unlike the crow, he can

He is not tiie same dog as on other
days. Ho indulges in no pastimes, en¬
courages no company, and says, in
actions louder than words, “Six days
shall Ihou play and do all thy sport.”
The family aro Presbyterians, but the
dog is a Methodist. On Sunday he at¬
tends (he family to tho Presbyterian
house of worship, and then holds on
his solitary nnd unbroken way to bis
own church. He has a particular place
up stairs, when ho can manage to elude

Sot Weather Suggestion!.
At the opening of the heated term a
few good resolutions should be made.
Among the first should lie one to culti¬
vate tranquillity of mind. Nothing in more
conduces to comfort of body, hot
weather a fiery argument is almost as
productive of a brisk raised physical in the tempera¬ blazing
ture as is a walk
sun. Moreover, its effects are less read¬
ily dissipated, for it bodily is easier exortion to sit down
and get cool after than
it is to subdue the perturbed mind that
it will not cause a series of "‘hot flushes"
for possibly hours after a vehement dis¬
cussion.
The same rule that applies to undue
exercise of the tongue and temper should
be observed in intellectual pursuits con¬
ducted in the dog-days. I)o not attempt
to shirk steady work iu this line; but let
all you do bo done methodically, not
spasmodically. Adherence to the Ger¬
man motto, "Without haste, without
rest,” relentless as it seems, is really less
wearying than a series of violent efforts
resulting in a fatigue which can be re¬
lieved only by utter repose.
So much l'or the mental attitude in hot
weather. The bodily condition is of
equal importance. Many people seem to
think that case in summer can only be
obtained by laziness, that employment
of any sort is the mortal enemy of bicn-
etre, and so devote the whole of the long
days to what is expressively termed
“loafing.” What wonder if for them
the weeks drag drearily, and that they
hail the return of shortened days and
frosty nights as a release from ennui.
There is no better way to keep cool
than to have some regular occupation,
be it never so trivial, that will serve to
divert the mind from the bodily con¬
dition. No matter what this employment
may be, whether the charge of certain
branches of house-work, the doing of
the family mending, the conducting of
a course of reading, the studying of a
language let made or a science—whatever duty, it is,
it be a and followed con-

Cleaning the Streets of Paris.
The rag-pickers of Paris do a work for
which other cities pay large sums annu¬
ally to street cleaning departments. They
toil at night, and the value of what they
collect is estimated at $10,0 )0 for each
twenty-four hours. Of cour-e, the con¬
ditions of Paris life are exceptional.
Population is very close; the tall houses
are crammed with inhabitants; there are
no gardens—there are but the houses and
streets. The Parisians have a way of
employing all kinds of lumber and re¬
fuse into the streets, and then the rag¬
pickers cather in their harvest. A use is
found for everything, and metamorphosis
never cease. All the details are interest¬
ing, though some are rather disturbing.

are cut up into tin soldiers or into sock¬

A woman “run-down,"
overworked, weak, nervous and de¬
bilitated — that’s a woman that Dr.
Pierce’s Favorito Prescription is
mado for. It gives her health and
strength. All woman’s weaknesses
and all woman’s ailments are cured
by it. It’s a legitimate medicine_
not a beverage ; an invigorating, re¬
storative tonic and a soothing and
cohol strengthening and injurious nervine, free from al¬
and vigor drugs. It im¬
parts tone to the whole
system. For all functional irregularities,
periodical and pains, uterine organic displace¬
ments diseases, it’s a
positive remedy. guaranteed
And a one. If it
doesn’t givo satisfaction, in every
case, the money paid for it is re¬
funded. No other medicine for
women is sold on these terms.
That’s because nothing else is
“ just will as good.” Perhaps the
dealer offer something that’s
“ better.” lie means that it’s bet¬
ter for him.
