This loss is miaous to farm soils, and should be prevented in gatdsns by sowing rye as seen ss a row of bed is vacant. Another unmeutioned merit is the healthtnlness of rye Hour as an occasional ehango of diet, far prefer able to changing from diet to drugs. The hardinsss and sturdy vigor of rye add so greatly to its usefulness ia a ceurse for field rotation that it might well be made a question for discussion wherever a debating club is eatabhsa ed in a farming district, whether elov •r or rye is cf most benefit to the farm and the farmer. Care vf Wood Ashes.— Wood ash es aro excellent manure for most soils. Even when analysis shows potash to be present, the wood ah is helpful, sines it contains more or loss phos phate, and its potash is a forp> to lib erate plant food in tho soil that wonld otherwise on unavailable. Thera is no better solvent for reverted phosphate, and the drilling of word ashen with *nt endangering other property from fires It is not the presence of live coals that cause this danger usually. These are generally pretty well juard ed againet. The great darger is from •pooUneous eombnsticta in nebee that bav* gathered dMnpness, and whose petasfi ha bv abeorption of nitrogen, been changed to saltpetre. This in contact with wool, woolen rags or any oilv substanes will generate fire. Ash es should, therefore, never be left in wooden receptacles Old barrels, so often ased for this purpose, are mast dangerous of ali. It does not cost much O build a stone or brick ask tones, and using it also for a smoke house avoids two cf the most common seurcea of destructive firce among farm buildings.

A Texas newspaper says that twen tv five years ago in that state the deaths from yellow fever averaged near ly one half of ail the cases. The deepest ocean roundings were recently made by the British surveying ship Egeria, the one depth being4,29s, the other 3,430 fathoms (about equal to five English wiles ) JUmetaaber that the improper man agenaentof a boiler when in opeiation, aud the neglect ot proper inspection, are the causes that operate fre quently to produce explosions. A patented material said to have all the properties of good lignum vitao is prepared in Leipsic. Germany, by M. Stockbardt, from ordinary soft wood. The wood is first impregnated with oil, then subjected to reat pressure, causing a considerable increase in den sity. Anew industry has sprung up late ly in New York City. Every morn ing, early, two little, dirty imps go from one electrie light pole to another getting the carbons. These are sold te a chemist, who asee them, after they are reduced to powder, for filtering pur poses. Quite an ingenious way of cooling a journal that can not be stopped is to hang a short endless belt on the shaft next to the box, and let the lowerpa.it of it run in cold water. The turning of the shaft carries the belt slowly around, bringing freeb cold water eon tinnally in contact with the heated shart, aad without spilling or spatter ing a drop of the water. At a receut meeting of the Anaeri can uuion, Ernest E. Thompson of Canada, said that some birds, especial ly sparrows, have Tentriloquial pow ers. Birds, when surprised in the act of singing, will be silent for a moment and then give torth a faint song that seems to come from a distance, though the singar be not farther than ten feet away. Thrushes and robbing, the lac turer said, also have this power. Since Humboldt witnessed fun thrown from the voleaoo CVtepaxi in Mexico, in 1803, it has been found that the phenomenon is repeated from time to time during eruptions, and that it occurs also in other volcanoes af the Andos.

Its in gredients are the best, and their combination the result of profound study and skill. Thus, for all diseases originating in impure blood, Ayer’s Sarsaparilla stands unrivaled. “Asa blood-purifier and general builder-up of the system,” says Eugene 1. llill.M. I-)., .'ist Sixth avc., New York, “I have never found anything to equal Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.” Mrs. Eliza A. Clough, Matron of the hi. E. Seminary, Tilton, N. H., writes : “ Every winter and spring my family, including myself, use several bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Experience Ims convinced me that, as a powerful blood purifier, it is superior to any other pre paration of Sarsaparilla.” "Ayer’s Sarsaparilla gives better sat isfaction than any other blood medicine I handle.”—Geo.\V.Whitman, Druggist, Albany, Indiana. * Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, Prepared by Dr..T.C.

He permitted but three of the gas gets over the table ia his com mittee-room to be lighted at once, and turned cut a fourth one on several oc casions when he came in and found that his clerk had lighted more than ths regulation number. He employed three clerks in his room at the Denis on, sent out his campaign documents turee times a day, made but thj'ee en gagements for speaking ia any one week, and when about leaving the cby invariably had the eail at the elerk’s desk fixed for an odd hour, irrespec tive of the time at when the train lett the eity.
