AGRICULTURAL Fall Chicks. Now is the time to set broody hens in order to get a supply of pullets for early spring begin laying. Pullets hatched now will the first laying begin in February and March,and to will want to sit by the last of March. Jn sitting hens in hot weather it is best to make a nest on the ground, or if this is not practicable, line a box with sod, dirt side up. Sprinkle with water containing a solution of car¬ bolic acid. Make the nest on top and sprinkle with sulphur, and you need bitvc no fear of lice. If you have any newly-hatched (hicks that seem droopy, and you have not takcu the above pre¬ cautions aganst lice, examine their heads at once for the so called butcher lice. To' destroy them anoint their heads with your finger dipped in lard. body Repeat the third day,and treat the breast, and wings of the mother hen to a like process. —New York Sun. * A Sanitary Hint. The cellar demands attention now. The great source of diseases is a damp, filthy cellar. It will pay for the time fruit required to clean it out. The decayed and vegetables, the sprouting po¬ tatoes, beets, etc., the mouldy boards and kegs, the refuse of celery; plants that have passed the season there should be removed, and the cellar swept and cleaned, whitewashed, if possible, but at least cleaned of cobwebs and mould. The banking that has protected the house collects moisture now, and is harmful to as great a degree as once it was healthful. Let in the pure air and allow all foul ga-es to escape, thus much of the unpleasant, “weary feeling” may be avoided, if not a severe and possibly fatal dicase escaped. There is no excuse because so much has to bejdono in a short time now. This is a moat important work and cannot afford to wait.-—J/as tac/i uselt 1 Ploughman* Experimental Manuring. Any wor': of experimenting in the growth of crops by different methods of manuring or culture should be based upon equal conditions.

Such soil as this will then show pre¬ cisely what the manure will do, and will give results as near certainty as may be. The present year a corn crop grown to test varieties for ensilage on a piece of new land without manuring is so uneven and spotty that tho corn plants average in height from ten inches to seven feet. Such a piece of soil is clearly unlit for experimenting down on, and will be uutil it is worn to au oven quality .—New York Timet. Paris Green—Its Use. The use of Paris greeu in orchards for the destruction of iuaects which injure fruit and foliage has been discussed quite fre«-ly at several of the agricultural conventious the past few months. Paris green seems to bo coining into use in some sectiocs as much in the orchard as in the potato field. Home who have ap plied it without due caution have killed the foliage and occasionally a cow or horse. Such poisons hs 1 arts. green should not be left around carelessly ex¬ posed informed to animals or children who are not of its nature. borne persons are doubtless unneces¬ sarily garden fearful field. of having it applied thoso in who the or There are have attempted to discard from their tables all potatoes which have been pro¬ tected by the use of poison, but the green is now used so universally on till farms where potatoes are grown and without the least injury to the tubers that the fear is pretty well overcome. It has been found that for potntoes a mixture of pure Paris greeu aud plaster at tho rate of one pound of the former to '200 or :S00 pounds of plaster is more effective than if the proportion of green is greater. If the green is put on iu too large propor tion the insects will reject leaves upon which it lies; while if the green is ex¬ tended three hundred times the leaves will be eaten more readily and thus more of the poison will be taken, though in very small doses. But if eaten in however email quantity the effect seems fatal. In ■praying fruit trees with Paris greeu water, a Connecticut man applied it strong enough to destroy the insects on the foliage, yet his horse feeding upon the grass underneath the trees was not poisoned. There is little doubt that cattle might eat potato vines which had been poisoued enough to destroy the beetle without be ing 1 nemselves poisoned. 8o, too, pota¬ toes in gardens may have the green ap plied on a windy day, and peas and beans growing near get slight doses with¬ out causing persons eating these vegeta¬ bles to be poisoned, yet it is hardly safe to utter such statements because of the danger that some one will act too ven turesome or foolhardy iu its use. Poisons of this nature, like fire, arc good frieuds, but by negligence may become among our greatest foes. —New England Farmer. Farm and Garden Notes Don’t neglect the weeds.

Pleasure is the reward of moderation. Many go out for wool and return ■horn. We open the hearts of others when we open our own. If you desire to be crowned, strivt manfully, bear patiently. A character that will not defend itself is rarely worth defending. What we are at home is a pretty sure test of what we really are. The greatest evidence of demoraliza¬ tion is the respect paid to wealth. There are no greater prudes than those women who have some secret to hide. The reproaches of enemies should quicken us to duty, and not keep us from it. He needs no other rosary whose thread of life is strung with beads of love and thought. Labor makes known the true wor'.h of a man, as tire brings the perfume out of incense. The first sure symptom of a mind in health is rest at heart and pleasure felt at home. Ei il habits are webs which are too light to be noticed until they are too strong to be broken. Great ideas travel slowly, and for a time noiselessly, ns the gods whose feet wereshod wlthjvool. r J he world knows no victory to be compared with the victory over our own passions and failings. It is more manly to fail in a hundred enterprises than to sit down and grum¬ ble at those who are trying. A Musical Decanter. A cut glass decanter with a musical box concealed in the bottom is the latest novelty in the line of fancy articles with musical attachments. The decanters are tinted in a variety of delicate colors, which serve to conceal the false bottom, Clear under glass which bottles the mechanism also made, is placed. and are when partly filled with wine or a colored liquid conceal The the musical works box still is wound moie ef¬ by fectually. means of a button under the bottom, and plays only when the decanter is on the table. Musical plates are made in a similar manner, but the mechanism in them does not play when the plate is on the table, but when it is lifted to bo passed around. A concealed spring underneath starts and stops the works. The plates and decanters cost $7.5') each. The most elegant fancy article that emits musical sounds is a gold snuff bo .

The process some time since announced of rolling out chains of wrought iron from the solid bar has, with certain im¬ provements, been successfully resorted to —the and the principle of forming the rollers chain process of rolling out a being in this ca<e similar in some re¬ spects to the method employed for cast¬ ing the links and having them come out together in a chain from a mold, lu the latter operation the flask is made to part equally in four ways, and the chain mold¬ ed while the links are separated so as to divide the space equally between them, giving as little clearness as possible, which will not change their appearance perceptibly—the flask is divided, tho chain is removed, and one is cast in the mold. Similarly, a piece of chain is swedged out of a bar of iron in an analo¬ gous ing die;. manner by means producing of four ncontinu converg¬ Thus, in ous chain in this way, the dies are continuous by having them formed on the circumference of four rollers arranged with dies distributed iu equal divisions, and the rollers driven by gear wheels, so that tho four parts of a link will meet accurately in place; proper clearance is given to the dies, so as to allow the ma¬ terial to leave the matrix freely as ilic roller revolves.

Bill Arp explains, Constitution in a that recent iu letter old time to the Atlanta , militia musters “the Governor was the Commander-in-Chief, but as he could not be personally present, the militia were reviewed by proxy. Every county of had an aid-de camp with the rank Colonel. He held his rank and title as long as the Governor held his office, and he was exbedted to holler for him and talk for him and boom him, and, if necessary, he must fiuht for him on a suitable occasion. If the Governor failed of re-election, these Colonels bad to re¬ tire too, and a new set were appointed, and but the old set never lost their title, so the State in course of time got pretty full of Colon*!*.” Feathered Harbinger* of Storms. The saw-like note of the great tit mouse is said to foretell rain; that o: the blue tit, cold. Various proverbs would seem to indi¬ cate that the cry of the owl, if heard iD bad weather, foretells a change. Herons, says an old author, flying doubtful up and down in the evening as if where to rest, “presage some evil ap¬ proaching weather’’—a legend as old at Virgil. dwellers in the country In Germany announcing lack faith in the skylark as lark and the fine weather, but when the cuckoo sing together they know sum mer has come. In Hampshire swans are believed to be hatched in thunderstorms, and it is said that those on the Thames have an instinctive prescience of floods. Before heavy rains they raise their nests. In the south of France so much store is set by the wisdom of the magpie, that if it builds its nest on the summit of a tree the country folk expect a season of calm, hut if lower down, winds and temnests are sure to follow. The abhorrence in which mariners hold the swallow-like storm petrel is well known. Its appearance is believed to denote wild weather. This little bird is the Mother Carey’s chicken of sailors, and is also called storm finch and water witch. Concerning gulls in general, children who live by the sea say: “Seagull, sea¬ gull, sit on the sand; it’s never good weather while you’re on the land;” and fisher folk know that when the sea mews fly out early and far to seaward fair weather may be expected. and imi¬ When rooks fly by high seem swooping, to tate birds of prey soaring, sign of and falling, it is almost certa n coming storm.

The Pautshen Lama. The selection of the Pantshen lama, whose headquarters are at the monastery of Krashis Lunpoin Further Thibet, and who has shared the overlordship of Thibet with the Dalai lama since the fifteenth century, took place at Lhassa, recently. The ceremony is, perhaps, the strangest revival in the ritual of any church. It was an old idea with the northern Buddhists that d.stinguished incarnations members of their order were of divine beings, who, while continuing to live in heaven, had the power to as~ aume an earthly existence, This belief is still held regarding the pontiff of Gedun Dubpa and Krashis i unpo, the one being looked on as the incarnation of the third person in the Trin ty, of which the great teacher is the head, and the other that of the second person in the same. Accordingly, when either of the pontiffs dies, as the Pant- the shen lama did some time ago, other has to set to work and discover wherein the celestial spirit has embodied himself anew. The first step is to get the names of all the male children born just after the death of the deef a^.i lama, and to select three from those, one of which, cast by lot, is the name of the new incarnation. About the beginning of the year the Chinese Besident at Lhassa was informed that three “young boys of remarkable intelligence and strangeness” had been found, and after some time spent in communicating with Pekin, the youngsters were brought to Lhassa and preparations made for the grand cere¬ mony. All the abbots of the great mon¬ asteries were present to supervise the week of prayer; the three children were received by the Resident and the Thibe¬ tan authorities “ in order that their in¬ telligence and dilleience from other per¬ sons might be tested,” and finally 011 an auspicious day a golden vase containing the fate of the boys having been brought in and placed in front of the emperor s image, which stands in the hall at Gedun Dubpa, the lot was drawn and the elect of the three nailed ns Amitabba incar¬ nate. the iantshen Iiinpotshe, rule “ Glorious half Teacher,” henceforth to over Thibet, _ Why Do Bees Work in the Dark!

A Buried City Strangely Brought to Light in New Mexico. c. The propriety of a bill introduced a day or two ago by Cliairman Holman of the Committee on Public Lands into the United States House of Representatives, land to set apart a large tract of near Cochite, on the Rio Grande, in New Mexico, as a national reservation, on account of its many archaeological re¬ mains, was illustrated and confirmed by the Hon. Amada Chavez, one of the leading citizens of -the Territory, who lives not far from that section oi coun¬ try, and who comes occasionally to El Paso on business. He discovered a short time ago, one mile north of the little town of San Maeto, the ruins of an extensive city, the existence of which had never even been suspected, before. The action of the windshade covered the larger por¬ tion of the ruins with sand and other detritus, and converted the whole into an extensive mound, and it was only a severe rain storm and cloud burst, sweeping away one angle of this mound and disclosing some heavy stone walls, that made the discovery possible. Mr. Chavez has since uncovered one or two of the ruins and obtained a number of interesting relics. A skeleton was found having three strands of beads around its neck—one of turquoise, one of jet, and •the other of bone. There were also large earrings of jet and turquoise with the skeleton, and remains of the hair, whioh was not black j:it light brown, besides ornamental pottery arrow-heads, with a quantity of maize, partly carbon¬ ized. This skeleton, with the articles enu merated, was found in a small chamber of masonry built up with a very adhe¬ sive cement. The excavations thus far made have discovered a large building, with massive stone walls and a tower at each corner. It looks more like thp re¬ mains of a citadel than an ordinary dwelling. The masonry is of the best kind, and the interior chambers are plastered and painted white. In the centre of this structure wa3 found a water reservoir, from which stone aque¬ ducts led in many directions. A dim tradition among the native Pueblo In¬ dians located here a prehistoric city named Guato, which was still in exist¬ ence at the time of Cortez’s coming to America.
