What do ly cost to import? Well, that is one the secret# of the trade. I retail them $10 per hundred, or $1 50 a dozen, course, when a customer calls for one • I charge him a quarter. A leech, see, is a little like a toothbrush— ! rybody wants one of his own. In- led, it is not considered safe to use a 9ch twice, because the impure and lisonous blood they draw from their Ibjaets impregnates their system, and By would likely communicate poison, tcnce they are killed as soon ns their rork ia done. You wonder how much flood they drink? Well, it varies with he size of the leech. But I should say wo ounces at least. Won’t you exam- ne one closer?” Here the barber reached down into the liatful of kicking worms, selected a spec. [men, ft and seizing it by the tail, though seemed to be all tail, held it up to the light. It was then seen to have ten eyes ho legs and possessed more belts and rings bad than the planet Saturn. It had a mouth for blood, while the hungry expression in its eyes gave way to pity end condolence at the gaunt and pallid jfaee of the newsman. The nasty little fellow was then carefully gathered up and shoved into the box, while the bar- ber concluded with the following wise observation: “The custom of bleeding by means of leeches was known and practiced extensively by the ancients, and prevails largely in Europe and east- cm countries even at the present time, Their utility in this country, however, has been largely supplanted by artificial leeches and cupping, which is generally preferred, especially by women, who al- most go into hysterics at the sight of a real, live leech.” The Organist Caught Napping* One of the ablest clergymen in Malnf has the habit of often making a pause ol several minutes in the midst of his re- marks. This is seldom embarrassing to himself or to his audience, for when he resumes there is always something good enough to justify the wait. One Sunday a short time since he made an exchange of pulpits, and during his prayer he made one of his accustomed pauses. The or¬ ganist had not perhaps been paying that strict attention which organists in general are accustomed to pay. He had no doubt been dreaming of some symphony which has never yet been vouchsafed to mortals to interpret. But the solemn si¬ lence roused him fronvhis reverie. He stened. The stillness was gaining; the yer was apparently done. His hands -ffit the keys and music floated upon ir. The congregation was somewhat : '•d, but not so to the reverend gen¬ ii He waited until the last strain away, and beginning, “we further %. a thee, O Lord,’’ went on, and ght the prayer to its proper conclu- ain the tones of the organ were • • sard, but this time more softly sweet than before.

In our issue of last week we •stated that she had eloped with an eighteen-year-old man. The truth was ithat she was thrown from an eight-year- old mare, which she was ridimg in a lope, and which slipped and fell. Mis- takes will happen in the best-regulated newspaper offices; and we are confident that when we state the item was sent over a telephone wire, no other apology will be needed.” —• I Parnell’s brother has on his Georgia i farm 1300 acres in peaches. FOR THE FARM AND HOME. Fall for Anlut.li, An official report from the department of agriculture in France gives the follow¬ ing reasons why animals should bo fed salt: First, salt ought to bo given to replace the saline parts that arc re¬ moved from the food whenever it is boiled or steamed. Second, it increases the flow of saliva and hastens fattening, Third,it counteracts the ill effects of wot food and meadows to sheep and prevents rot among them. To which it may be added tlmt, according to Professor John- son, upwards of half of the saline matter in the blood (57 per cent.) consists of salt, and as this is partly discharged every day through tho skin, kidneys, etc., the necessity of a continuous supply to the healthy body becomes sufficieotly obvious. Tranaplmtt I ng. There is a popular notion that cabbage, cauliflower, celery, and tomatoes must be transplanted. One farmer says he grows many cabbage-plants, sowing them in rows twenty-one inches apart, so they cau be cultivated with a harrow. Last summer h<t pulled the plants from every other clean, leaving rows three and a half feet apart, from which rows he thinned out the plants as they were needed. Finally he pulled or hoed out the plants until they stood about two feet apart in the rows. As a result the cabbages left in the rows headed just as well as those which had been trans¬ planted. By far the earliest, largest, and best celery, he says, he grew last year was not transplanted, It was formerly thought necessary to make trenches for celery; now few growers in the Northern States continue the practice. Will not transplanting soon be equally a thing of tho past ? fh« Core of Calve*. Many fanners have suffered losses among their calves by putting them too early upon a non-milk diet of an unsuit- able nature. The stomach of a calf but a few weeks old is very tender and dcli- cate, and will not stand irritation such ns is produced by many feeding stuffs that are readily digested at a more advanced age. It is necessary to remove from such food all particles of husk or fibre; and whatever may be the materials used in the mixture—whether bean-meal, pea- meal, wheat, linseed, or a variety of others—it is important not merely to grind finely, but to carefully separate through a silk or fine cloth sieve all par- tides of husk. If these are not removed they are, however finely ground, likely to cause serious in i tation. The judicious use of gruel made from properly pre- pared foods, at first in partial and finally in total substitution for milk, from an early age, effects a considerable economy on a large dairy farm, Domestic Pond Lilies. At the New York State Experiment Station there is a barrel cut down to con- venient size, and then set in a hole dug in the earth upon a corner of the lawn, The top of the barrel is just level with I the surface of the lawn. It has about four inches of river mud in the bottom, in which were planted a few roots of the common white pond lily. The barrel was then filled with water, and is kept full from a faucet in tho aqueduct pipe, the water being turned on as often as necessary. The barrel has been a beau- tiful miniature pond of white lilies all through the season. In the fall, after the weather gets cold, the barrel or tub i 8 lifted out and carried to the cellar, where it is protected from freezing, and where the roots of the lilies will be kept in conditions similar to what they would be surround with in their natural state. Nothing can be more charming in the way of flowers on a lawn than a small pond of water lilies blooming daily the whole summer through. Of course, the barrel must be set where teams and persons would not walk into it by night or day. If the tub is a tight one, the trouble of keeping it supplied with water will not be great upon any lawu. — N. E. Farmer. riautins or 1'rult Trres. If the acre has been enriched and ploughed twice deeply as I have already suggested, little more is necessary in planting than to excavate a hole large enough to receive tho roots spread out in their natural positions. Should no such thorough and general preparation have been made, or if the ground is hard, poor and stony, the owner will find it to his advantage to dig a good-sized hole three or four feet across and two deep, filling in and around the tree with fine surface soil. If he can obtain some thoroughly decomposed compost or manure, for instance, as the scrapings of a barn-yard, or rich black soil from an old pasture, to mix with the earth beneath and around the roots, the good effects will be seen speedily, but in no instance should raw manure from the stable, or anything that must decay before becom- ing plant food, be brought in contact with the roots. Again I repeat my cau- tion against planting too deeply—one of the commonest and most fatal errors. Lot the tree be set as deeply as it stood hefore removal. If the tree bo planted early in spring, as it should be, there will be moisture enough in the soil, but when planting is delayed until the ground has become rather dry and warm, a pail of water poured about its roots when the hole has been nearly filled will be bene- ficial. Now that the tree u planted, any kind of course manure spread to the depth of two or three inches on the sur- face as a mulch is very useful. Stake at once to protect against the winds. Do not make the common mistake of plant- ing too closely. Observe the area shaded by fully grown trees, and you will learn the folly of crowding. Moreover, dense ; shade about the house is not desirable. There should be space for plenty of air atul sunshine. Tho fruit from one well developed tree will often more than sup- ply a family, for ten or fifteen barrels of apples is not an unusual yield. The standard apples should be thirty feet apart. Pears, the dwarfer growing cherries, plums, etc., can be grown in the intervening spaces. In ordering from the nurseries insist on straight, shapely, and young trees, say three years from the bud. Many trees that are sent out are small enough, but they are old and stunted. Also require that there should bo an abundance of fibrous and unmutilated roots.— E. P.

An sorghum and water seemed effectual cold, but with crude New Orleans molasses no perfect emulsion could be obtained. On the whole the result was unsatisfactory. Ice-water for cabbage worms is of no account; pyrethrine, if pure and kept from contract with air, is effectual, if dusted thoroughly on tho leaves and cavities. For fall webb-worm copperas water, one ounce to a pint, destroyed the worms without injuring the foliage Upon mangel-wurzel applied to tne foliage it the mainlined bU*» b«A * cease feeding and leave the plants. [The various blister beetles feed upon avanety of plants other than beets.] The use of tar water upon ant burrows in a walk did not kill the ants, but only caused them to open new burrows.

The same solution killed 75 per cent ot the larvae of the apple-leaf skeletonizer. The same solution killed about 50 per cent of clusters of worms on the bark of black-walnut tre s and caused the whole cluster to fall to the ground. A few larvae detached themselves and again ascended the trunk. Equal parts of ker¬ osene, sorghum and water churned into an emulsion and sprayed over the leaves caused the caterpillars to disappear m forty-eight. hours. dr. I liomas Bennett of New Jeisey, in his report to the department, of trials of infusions each of Jamestown weed, (stramonium), tomato, beans, mandrake root, tansy and other decoctions upon various plants and trees infested with aphis, says they were found of some merit, but it is reported that tansy stands highest in his estimation .—New York World. Household Hints. To make eggs froth quickly when beating them, add a small pinch ol salt ; and it will freshen them, too. Mix your stove-blacking with soap¬ suds; the polish comes quickly and the dust of the blacking is avoided. Egg shells crushed into small bits and shaken well in decanters three parts fill¬ ed with cold water, will not only clean them thoroughly, but make the glass look like new. By rubbing with a flannel dipped in the best whiting, the brown discolora¬ tion may be taken off cups in which cus- tards have been baked. When putting away the silver tea or coffee pot which is not in use every day, lay a stick across the top under cover. This will allow fresh air to get in, and prevent mustinoss of the contents famil¬ iar to boarding-house sufferers. Kecipeg. Pressed Beef .—Boil a shank of beef till tender, chop it not very fine, boil down the liquor until three pints are left; three quarts of chopped meat, three pints of liquor, three teaspoonfuls salt, three tea¬ spoonfuls pepper, one-half nutmeg; pour the liquor over hot; set away till cold and theit slice in thin, even slices. Salmon Salad .—One can of salmon, four bunches of celery, both chopped as fine as for chicken salad. Pour over the following dressing:. The yolks of two eggs beaten light, one teaspoonful mus¬ tard, salt and pepper to the tasto, and three tablespoonfuls table oil, added very gradually, and two tablespoonfuls of vinegar. Pork Pie .—Slice salt pork very thin, add one teacupful to three teacups of potatoes, three of water (part milk is better), a cup of cream, a small piece of butter and pepper. Put all in a four- quart pan, set on stove while preparing crust. Take a quart of flour, one tea- spoonful of soda, stir it all through the flour, one-half cup of cold larrl or pork fat, rub all through the flour, wet with buttermilk or sour milk; roll out size of top of pan, cut slit in center, crust and bake half an hour.
