WHERE NEATNESS PAYS.
Advantages Incident to the Good Ap
pearance of a Farm.
It can hardly be realized by a farm
er who has never tried the plan ot
keeping every Ihing about his farm in
repair, and the yards and fields in neat
order, what an improvement can bo
made in the attractiveness of a place
in this way. Not only will this
attention to the appearance of a farm
be a source of gratification to those
who occupy it, but it will add a money
value by giving a much mmo favora
ble impression to thoso who see it.
Visitors or passers-by from a distance
remember such a place, and their
recollection of it being pleasant, they
mention it to others. The sale of a
farm at a good price has often been
brought about in this way.
The difference in value is more than
one would suppose in the eyes of a
purchaser, when lie compares a farm
wheic all is kept tidy and neat with
one where neglect is ;everywhere
manifest. The farms may have the
same number of acres, and tho build
ings on the neglected one may have
originally cost more than those on tho
other, perhaps were erected some time
later, but for all that the buyer of taste
is attracted by the well-cared-for place,
and the other suffers much more by
comparison than the value of the time
and money required to secure the dif
ference* in the appearance of the two
farms.
Where attention is given to repairs
i promptly, the expense is trifling, and
the time required to keep tho yards
about the buildings in neat order is
: very little if the work is not neglected,
i but is done before it accumulates,
i Perhaps nothing detracts from the
appearance of a'farm more then fences
f and gates out of repair, sayin f >’
s nothing of the danger of loss and dan”
age by the escape of tho owner’s stock,
oi the encroachments of that b dong
- ing to his neighbors. Annoyance and
> Joss from this cause can be easily and
1 cheaply prevented by prompt atten
• tion.
L'jt the fence corners bo kept clear
. of rubbish and weeds, and the jjrass
jbe cut, the trees properly trimmed,
the low places drained so they will bn
prod tie ive, and the hedges, if there
‘are any, neatly trimmed, and the ex-
I pensc required for this work will bn
.found money well invested, if it is dt
isired to effect a sale, and a source of
much satisfaction where this is not the
Rase, and the owner takes any pride in

ihe estimation in which a firmer is

FOOD FOR HORSES.
Ufiw !<> fiuve at E.'ast Ttfnily per Cent
ol 1 V.>ed.
Perfect digestion and assimilation
require perfect health in the digestive
organs. Caro should bo taken in re
gard to stabling. Look after ventila
tion and sewerage, and cleanliness in
every respect. See that the molar
teeth are in proper condition to grind
tlie food. Grain swallowed whole is
never digested, lienee the advantage
in cutting hay and grinding feed.
From my own experience I am sa'is
tied that feeding cut hay and groun 1
feed results in a net, saving of at
least twenty per cent Companies and
organizations which keep hundreds of
horses, and oven thousands, have
been obliged to study this part of
their expenses closely, and they have
demonstrated "beyond a doubt that it
is economy to cut and grind feed for
horses. I have fed a large number of
horses of my own, and have observed
how others feed, for many years, and
I know it is the correct way to feed
economical! v.
I usually feed equal parts by weight,
of oats, corn and wheat bran, and it
works admirably. Few horses fed
thus suffer from diseases of the di
gestive organs. No doubt many who
feed corn to hoisos in summer, givo
too much of it, producing acute indi
gestion and colie. Cut feed is not
bulky, and is therefore more suitable for
ihe small stomach of the horse. When
horses are fed on cut hay they get a
regular quantity and no moro, but if
fed on long, loose hay they often have
nil they can cat, possibly consuming
forty pounds per day instead of eight
or ten. Cut hay is far less apt to
cause irritation of the intestines and
derangements of the bowels and
stomach. By mixing oats with dry
bran, you compel the horse to eat
more slowly and masticate bettor. A
proper quantity of salt is an impor
tant itom. This can be best secured
by placing a lump of rock salt where
be can have free access to it. It stim
ulates and promotes digestion and im
proves tbe condition, not only by its
action upon tlio stomach, but also by
its alterative action upon the blood.
Keep horses from exposure to cold,
piercing winds and storms. Fully
half more food is required by stock
not sheltered, and it is almost impos
sible to keep young stock from being
'•stunted,” if not properly sheltered”
It is economy, to say nothing about
humanity, to place stock in warm,
well ventilated quarters. Keep tho
stable clean; feed cut hay and fodder,
with a moderate quanlity of ground
oats, corn, rye and wheat bran, and
water no less than three times a day.
Observe these rules and you will save
at least twenty-five per cent. This is
not theory, but practice.—Cur. Ohio
Farmer.
FEEDING GRASS PLANTS.
Tho Kind of FerMizerv Suitable for Ap
plication to Pastures.
A safo fertilizer for gras; lands has
to lie compounded on tho same i tiles
which guide us in making provision of
that, kind for other cro| s upon plowed
lands. Wood-ashes, barnyard manure,
if necessary supplemented by commer
cial manorial substances, or a suitable
combination of commercial manorial
substances may bo used in that con
nection, with more or less advantages
under different local circumdances.
The grass crop contains, on an aver
age, one part of phosphoric acid to
three parts of nitrogen and four parts
of potash. Jn rase of now grass land,
it is well to adhere to that proportion
of those constituents i i tho manure to
be used.
In case of old grass lands with an
abundance of vegetable refuse matter,
the amount of nitrogen may be saf ly
redue d lo smaller proportions, whilst
an e-.u a occasional application of some
potash compounds alone, as muriate
of potash (150-200 pounds per acre) or
kainit (503-600 pounds per acre), judg
ing in the matter from personal ob
scrva'ioiis, Csecurcß quite frequently
satisfactory crops.
It is difficult to state collectively the
exact amount of nitrogen, potash and
phosphoric acid for a given area,
which will secure tho best results, on
account of the widely-varying condi
tions of grass lands as far as locality
ami their state of fertility is c mcorn
ed. To apply about one-half of the
fertilizing constituents conta nod in
an average crop seems to bo a good
rule, under otherwise fair conditions.
Taking two tons of hay as an aver
age yield per acre, tho fertilizer to he
used ought to contain from 30 lo 35
pounds of available nitrogen, from 31
lo 12 pounds of available phosphoric
acid, and from 45 to 50 pounds of sol
ubli potassium oxide (actual potash).
Such a fertilizer mado of the best in
gredients, would cost from $8 to $0
per acre.
It is not advisable to reduce tho
nitrogen in our grass manures to too
small quantities, for the bust grass
crop contains tho largest amouut of
valuable nitrogen compounds.
No single article of plant food acts
independently of tho rest; a liberal
amonht of nitrogen asssts,
in the liberal assimilation of
phosphoric acid an potash
These elements have a close
relation to each other in many of our
fodder crops. — Dr. Gocssmann, Direc

DR. LOUIS PASTEUR.
Wonderful Discoveries Made by the (treat
French Chemist.
I)r. Pasteur is getting more and more
famous every day, and his experiments
with Itis cure for hydrophobia aro turn
ing out successfully.
Fince Jenner’s great discovery of in
oculation with virus for the prevention
of small-pox, it has been the object of
scientists to discover means tor the pre
vention of other diseases in a similar
manner. By means of the microscope
minute organisms, or microbes, were
discovered to bo the cause of many
diseases of man and animals, and the
question was to determine to what ex
tent diseases could be prevented
by inoculation of diluted or weakened
poison into the system for preventing
tho disease usually produced by the
poison.
Louis Pasteur lias made many won
derful discoveries in thi s new branch of
medicine, but before that he was well
known as a successful scientist in chem
ical and physical matters. He was born
in Dole in 1822 and was appointed
teacher of chemistry at Besancon, and
then at Dijon, and linallv was appointed
professor of chemistry at Strassburg in
1849. b
In 1857 ho conducted the Normal
school in Paris, and in 1863 was ap
pointed professor of chemistry at Sor
bonne. He was compelled to resign
the latter position as one side of his
body became paralyzed; but lie grad
ually recovered his health sufficiently
to be able to take up his chemical re
searches, and in order to enable him to
give his full attention to his studies,
the French Government has granted
him an annual pension of 12,000
francs since 1874, which has been raised
to 20,000 francs recently.
Since 1870 Pasteur has given all his
attention to contagious diseases, such
as anthrax, chicken cholera and rabies
of dogs. All these diseases are caused
by parasites of microbes, and he claim
ed that by inoculating part of the poi
son in small quantities and very much
diluted into the system a person is loss
apt to bo a fleeted by these diseases
than those who have not been thus in
oculated.
Troussait previously made experi
ments with the blood of animals suffer
ing from anthrax, but Pasteur lias suc
ceeded iu raising anthrax bacilli in a
drop of blood, and by preserving the
germs upon certain substances, their
strength as a poison was diminished to
such an extent as not to cause any dis
ease. Injection of this diluted poison
protected animals so that very few suf
fered from anthrax when formerly en
tire herds were killed.— N. O. Picayune.

Edwin Forrest's Secret,
The great tragedian, Forrest, had a secret
which everybody ought to learn and profit
by. Said he, “ I owo all my success to the
fact that every thing J have undertaken I
tmvo done thoroughly. I f ever neglect
trifles.” That’s the point—don't neglect
trifles. Don’t neglect that hacking cough,
those night-sweats, that feeble and capri
cious appetite, and the other symptoms,
trifling in themselves, but awful in their
significance. They herald the approach of
consumption. You are in danger, hut you
can be saved. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery will restore you to health and
vigor, as it has thousands of others. For
all 'scrofulous diseases, and consumption is
one o.(them, it is a sovereign remedy.

' Nasal Voices, Catarrh md False
Teeth."
A prominont English woman says the
American women all have high, shrill," nasal
voices and false teeth.
Americans don’t like tho constant twit
ting they get about this nasal twang, and
yet it is a fact caused by our d .-y stimulat
ing atmosphere, and the universal presence
of catarrhal difficulties.
But w’hy should so many of our women
have false teeth*
That is moro of a poser to the English. It
is ijuite impossible to account for it except
on the theory of deranged stomach action
caused by imprudence in eating and by
want of regular exercise.
Both conditions are unnatural.
( atarrhal troubles everywhere prevail
and end in cough and consumption, which
aro promoted by mal nutrition induced by
deranged stomach action. The condition is
a modern one, one unknown to our ancestors
who prevented the catarrh, cold, cough and
consumption by abundant and regular use
of what is now known as Warner’s Log
Cabin Coug'. and Consumption Remedy and
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, two old fashioned
standard remedies handed down from our
ancestors, and now exclusively put forth
under the strongest guarantees of purity
and efficacy by tho world-famed makers of
Warner s safe euro. These two remedies
plentifully used as the spring and summer
seasons advance give a positive assurance
of freedom, both from catarrh and those
dreadful and, if neglected, inevitable conse
quences, pneumonia, lung troubles and con
sumption, which so generally and fatally
prevail among our people.
Comrade Eli Fisher, of Salem, Henry Co.,
lowa, served four years in the late war and
con traded a disease called consumption by
the doctors. He had frequent hemorrhages.
After using Warner’s Log Cabin Cough and
Consumption remedy, ho says, under date
of Jan. 19th, 1888: “I do not bleed at the
lungs any moro, my cough does not bother
me, and 1 do not have any moro smothering
spells.” Warner’s Log Cabin Rose Cream
cured his wife of catarrh and she is “ sound
and well.”
Of course we do not like to have our
women called nose talkers and false teeth
owners, but these conditions can be readily
overcome in the manner indicated.

TVo £ EPSIA ' Indigestion with Loss of Appetite,
JL* Biliousness and Constipation, aro the diseases
most common nt this season of tlioycar. Thesedis
eases arc generally followed by nervousness, weak
ness and prostration. Sleepless and restless nights
are followed by a tired waking. There Is often no
appetite for breakfast, there may be a bad taste in
the mouth mornings, and the person has frequently
a <=uii or bad feeling head. After meals there is in
many cases_a full, bloated or uncomfortable feel
ing, with belching of wind. In some eases there is a
pain in the side or under the shoulder blade; some
times there Is a pain at the pit of the stomach, while
in oltaers there is a faintness, sinking or “all gone’’
sensation. There is often biliousness and almost
always constipation.
In such cases tho food docs little or no good to tho
system, does not nourish the body or build up tho
blood and vitality. The health arid strength there
fore gradually wane, the person becoming weak
tired and exhausted; after a tlmo thereisbardiy
power and energy so get through the day's work,

“Untold Agony from Catarrh.’*
Prof. W. It AtTSNER, the famous mesmerist,
of Ithaca , N. F., writes: “Some ten years ago
I suffered untold agony from chronic nnsal
catarrh. My family physician gave me up as
incurable, and snid I must die. My ease was
such a bad one, that every day, towards sun
set, my voice would bouomc so hoarse I could
barely speak above a whisper. In the morning
my qoughing and clearing of my throat would
nlmost strangle me. By the use of Dr. SngoA
Catarrh Ilomedy, in three months, I was a welj
man, and tho cure has been permanent.”
“Constantly Hawking and Spitting.’*
Thomas J. Bushing, Esq., t9O! Pine, Street,
St. Louti, Mo., writes: “I wus a great sufferer
from catarrh for t lireo years. At times I could
hardly breathe, and was constantly hawking
and spitting, and for the Inst, eight month!
could not breathe through the nostrils. I
thought nothing could be done for me. Luck
ily, I was advised to try Dr. Sage’s Catarrh
Remedy, and I am now a well man. I beliova
it to be tho only sure remedy for catarrh now
manufactured, and one has only to give it ■
fair trial to experience astounding results and
a permanent cure.”
Three Bottle! Car* Catarrh.
Eli Robbins, Runyan P. 0„ Columbia Co.,
Fa., says: “M.v daughter had catarrh when
she was five years old, very badly. I saw Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy advertised, and pro
cured a bottle for her, and soon saw that it
helped her; a third bottle effected a perma
nent cure. She Is now eighteen years old and
sound and hearty.”
