jpARM AND GARDEN. Treatment for Founder. In *hc first stages of founder in horses mode ate do-es of aconite should be given, and ihe animals covered with warm blankets, to cause or encourage perspiration. But in advanced stages, and wh' n the feet have become tender, poulti.es should be applied after remov ing the -hoes. If the in ury is but slight, then turning out to pasture in summer will usually effect a cure, especially if the ground is low and somewhat moist. The main thing is to remove the fever from the feet, for as long as these are tender and sore the horse will be lame. —New York Sun. Ttomodv for Wire Worms. There are two kinds of wire worms, so called. <neis a small round, hard worm with only six legs; this is the larva of a long na row beetle, which lias a habit of jerking its body and making a snapping noise, hence it is called the snapping beetle or elater, because »of its jerky motion when it snaps. This pest is not so troublesome as the other, which is not an insect, but a myriapod, or thousand legs ; >t has legs at each ring of its long thin body, and curls itself spira ly when at rest. This is an injurious pest, as it cats the roots of grass, wheat, and other plants. Either kind will cut slices of patato or leaves of clover rolled into balls, so that if these are poisone' 1 with l aris green the -worms may be destroyed. These pests aie encouraged by leaving ground uncultivated, but are starved out by plowing the land and leaving it fallow for a few months. Strong smelling superphosphate will drive them uway. Feeding Places for Chickens. It arouses my wrath to Sfe the wav “some folks’’ feed their chickens after the hen has weaned them. They seem to think ihat because the o 1 lien has weaned them the c*iickens/ai take case of themselves and so take uomitrj pa:ns to sec that they, have their food where the older hens cap not 10b them. The feed is thrown doWn to old and young alike, and all alike apramb e for it, but the young chickens are crowded, hustled about and pecked at so ipu h by the older fowls that they rarely,Nf ever, get enough to satisfy their hunger. There is no need of having such work. Make some feeding-racks and feed the chickens inside where the old fowls cannot get at them. The racks are just frames of scantling, with the top and four sides covered with p asterjng-lath, the lath on the sides being far enoti b apart to al low the chickens to get in easily, but not to let ihe old fowls in.— Mrairie Farmer. Top-Priced Butter. The manufacture of extra choice but ter i, cleverly and briefij summed up in the following from the Agricultural Ga zette. “Anyone who has a good sweet pasture, who keeps his dairy and every utcns.l in it scrupulously clean, who never (burns cream more than sixty hours old from the cow, and always at the proper temperature, tested by a ther mometer, who uses a proper churn (there ate lots of them), tentilating his churn at intervals by taking out the plug; who stops churning the moment the butter shows itself iu small grains not so large as wheat; who then lets the churn rest until the butter all floats up to the top, and then carefully lets out the butter milk, and replaces it w.th clean cold water, turning it very slowly; who again lets the churn stop to let the butter f oat up and then lets out the milky water and replaces it with a fresh supply of cold water; who then gives the chum very few slow turns round, and then a little faster, so as to gather the butter into a sort of lump, and then lets out the butter with a doth over both hands, so as not to touch it, and then, when cool, works it with a proper butter worker and never touches it with his hands, but only with ‘wooden hands,’ will most assuredly make top-priced butter.” notations ill Crops. 1. Rotations are valuable because plants vary in the area of the soil in which their roots grow and from which they derive the sustenance of the plant, bus more completely utilizing the soil within their reach. 2. There is a re markable variation in the power of plants to appropriate the various elements cf plant growth, due, at least in part, to the character of the acids secreted by their roots. Thus one plant, like clover, has a high power of gathering nitrogen, and another, like wheat, a very low power. 3. i'lants vary in iheir weight of roots. As au illustration, clover car ries several times the weight of roots that wheat does, and masmu h as clover roots are very much richer in nitrogen than wheat, and carry enough nitrogen to g:ow a crop of wheat—wheat will most advantageously follow clover. Thus, likewise, other plants follow each other advantageously. 4. Rotation of crops bau.es, in a large measure, the root enemies, both insect and fungoid, that prey upon the various crops. Each plant havmg its own peculiar enemies, the changing removes them to fields un occupied by such eneni es. This is true of the enemies of ti e above ground growth of plants to an important de gree. 5. Plants vary in the amounts of • the varying elements of nutrition ac tually taken up by its growth. Thus, while wheat takes only 11 pounds of potash for every pound of phosphoric acid, potatoes take fit pounds of potash for each pound of phosphoric acid. Continuous growth of potatoes would exhaust the potash of the soil or of sup plied manure long before the phosphoric acid could give out. 0. The Reaves of plants vary in their power of gaining food and of vaporizing water, and are roughly divided into broad and narrow leaved. 7. Leaves vary in their season of active growth. Those plants matur ing in midsummer and early fall, gener ally gather nitrogen, (corn and turnips are good examples), following in their growtli the decomposing influence of the sun, more easily and mors fully than other crons do. 8. Rotation conserves soil fertility and yet aids in soil decom position by alternation of grass or clover crops and hoed crops. Under a contin uation of plough and tillage crops, leaching, volatilization and washing of fertility are more rapid and more of it may be and is carried away by crops, es pecially nitrogen. Rotation of crops distributes labor over the year and there by economizes it, gives regular help and aids in the solution of the labor problem iof the farm. 10. Rotation is the system best calculated for home consumption of erops and the return of the fertilization of the farm. 11. Practice of 2000 years conlirms the value of rotation. Each of these factors has the bearing that can not be here presented, but, all together afford very strong and almost, if not quitq, imperative reasons for rotations.— Coleman’s Mural World. Signals lor the F^jm. A code of signals tor use on the farm may be made very useful for communi cation between persons out of speaking distanep. The writer has long used a loud whistle for making signals to his hired men and others about the farm, which have been found quite intelligible and useful after a little training. The common ‘ mile whistles” sold under the claim that they can be heard a mile o 1 are frauds, and tit only for children’s playthings; but a loud whistle can be made of a brass tube half an inph in di ameter, plugged, and cut with a file in the required manner. The best whistle, however, is made of the half shell of a common filbert or Barcelona nut sawn lengthwise or across the middle. T his is placed between the third and fourth fingers inside the hand, at the space be tween the knucKle and the next joint, with the opening in the shell between the fingers. The hand is then closed so that an orifice is left between the fingers opening into the nutshell. Then by placing the bent joints of the fingers be tween the lip's and blowing forcibly into the nutshell, a very shrill and loud whistle may be given ihat can be he ard half a mile with a ease, and further when a gentle breeze is blowing in the direc tion the sound is to be sent. It seems that this system of whistle signals or language is by no means a novelty, for a regular vocabulary, so to speak, of whistling sounds has been in use for many years iu an island of the Canary group. The inhabitants o! this island (Goniera, which consists most of precipitous rocks and deep ravines through which rivers flow,) make use of this code of whistle signals to communi cate with each other across the rough country, which can only be traversed by long, circuitous routes, on account of the deep ravines. The people use both fin gers and lips in whistling, and can carry on a conversation with neighbors a mile distant by the use of tli s peculiar lan guage. This useful addition to the faculty oi speech may be made available in many ways by adopting a familar code or key of sounds to that which is used in tele graphy. ’i bus in our system three short, sharp whistles blown quickly mean that that the man or men at work iu a distant place are to come to the house or to quit work. One loug whistle gradually taper ing olf to a finish, means that the fore man must send a man to the barn; one short, sharp whistle, followed by the long, tapering one, calls the teams home; two short whistles and the long one from the foreman call the employer to the field to settle some difficulty; three short whittles and the long one call the fore man and announce meal t ines. Thus by the use of long and short sounds dif ferently disposed all sorts of directions may be given and information conveyed. Each man employed is provided with a whistle, if ha cannot use his fingers in the usual way, which makes a loud, piercing sound, and a card of signals; but this is not of much u-e except at rare intervals. Flags are usefully employed as signals when the hou-e or barn can be seen from ail parts of the farm. A pole with arms such as make up the old fashioned “semaphore” telegraph may also be used when it can be seen or the persons are too far to hear a sound. A triangle made of a steel bar bent with the ends free, and stru; k with another piece of steel, can be heard more than a mile away. But this and the bell are not sutiic cutly va rious iu sound for ordinary use. The whistle, on the other hand, maybe made to vary quite sufficiently to afford all necessary means of communication over the area of an ordinary farm, and the signals may be so codified as to give in telligent meanings, as in the case of the islanders above referred to. But it will be most convenient to con dense as much as possible the code of signals. Thus the signal come to the house or baru when repeated quickly will mean there is something wrong and haste is required. This will answer for all emergencies. Each man, too, should have his signal, to which he only will answer in person when the men are to gether or scattered. Fome such method of communication will be found very useful, and, as it will tend to save time in the work of the farm, and as time is money, it will be found a means of economy, and therefore worthy of adop tion.—New York Times. Farm ancl Garden Notes. Remove the hot sweaty harness from the horse at noon. The best of breeding can be neutral ized by poor feeding. Paris green will certainly kill the large green worm which eats the leaves. Breeding flocks of poultry should con-ist of the best in the whole number. When the sheep pastures begin to grow scanty supplement them with other food. Mark or otherwise note the largest and earliest maturing vegetables and save them for seed. Farms always sell most readily and at the highest prices where roads are kept in the best repair. The plantain can be killed by cutting it olf at the crown, and putting on top of the root a drop cr two of kerosene oil. Distemper often leaves the house in an unhealthy condition from the absorption of impure matter the product of the dis ease. No money can be invested to better advantage than in buying enough mos quito netting to tack over the stable windows to keep the flies out. Wherever commercial fertilizers are sown with the drill, the bulk of clover and grass seed will be found in the rows with the grain. It would be better for both if they were a little separated. Since manures are the nourishing ma terial of plants, and other things being equal, the higher profit of the field de pends only and alone on the greater and easily-extracted quantity of the same found in the soil. Chicks that refuse to eat, throw their heads back, tumble over on their backs, and act as if they are bewitched gener ally, are probably troubled with large chicken-lice that at first are found only on the heads of the victims. The Lncky Oil Driller. “Bob” Green, of Washington, Penn., an oil driller who became famous in Western Pennsylvania from the many Iqcky hits he made, especially at the time of the Fergus oil boom, from which he got the reputation of being a mascot, died a few days ago in Mercy Hospital, PPtsburg, and the Co nn ercial Gazette gives an interesting ske'ch of his career. The cause of Green’s death was nervous prostration. “Bob” Green wis well known to oil producers everywhere as “The 1 ticky Driller.” When S. P. Fergus, a well known Washington county oil-producer, first started to drill iu that section he engaged the services of Green. The territory where the wells were to be located was entirely new and some distance from where the producing wells of that country were located. Mr. Fergus was not over sanguine, but “Bob” Green was, and assured his em ployer that he would strike a bonanza. Fergus said to him: “Well, ‘Bob,’ if you are so confident, I will enter into an agreement that you are to receive one-eighth of the 0.l pro duced in that territory for your services as a driller.” Green replied: “I will take your offer, and it will make me rich.” The drilling began. The fir t well proved to bo a gusher. The next was an e ptally good producer. The boom continued, and it was not many month? before Green’s prophecy that the agree ment would make him a comparatively rich man proved true. The title, “The Lucky Driller,” then fell to Green, and his services were sought for by producers everywhere. Recently he left the employ of Mr. Fergus, and leased territory in the Baker town district, and hal been ope.ating for himself ever since. Books as Disease Propagators. A good deal of discussion having taken place in England on the suuject af the spread of infectious di-ease> by means of the books in circulating lobrn ries, the Dresden municipal authorities have had a thorough experimental in vestigation of this question conducted. A number of much used volumes from the town library were taken for the pur pose. The dust from the leaves and covers was sown in nutrient media and cultures reared, the result being that no initrobes belonging to infections dis eases were found—the du<t being, in fact, nothing but ordinary dust of a harmless character. Again the dirtiest leaves in the books wcie rubbed first with the dry finger and then with the wet finger. In the first case sea: cely any microbes were found on the finger; in the seroud case plenty were found, but all appeared to be of a non-infe ‘tious character. Especially is it noted that the e were no tubercle bacilli. Lastly, books were soaked for two days in spirit contain ug ten per cent, of carbolic acid. This treatment dc-troyed all the bacilli, and proved harmless to the volumes. The conclusion arrived at was tint the danger of circulating libraries spreading infection is very slight, but a recoinm ni dation is given to dust books well before reading them, and never to wet the finger in the mouth for the purpose of turning over the leaves.— New York lost. A Mysterious Experimenter. A species of Parisian Dr. Jekyll has been unmasked at Auteuil, France. Tills person went down to that pleasant suburb aud racing rendezvous some days ago. lie hired rooms in a very secluded villa on the borders of the Bois aud shut himself up in it, after having provisioned himself in the town. He stuffed up the kev-hoies of the doors, pasted white paper on the insides of his window panes, and surrounded himself with asmmh mystery and secrecy as did thehy poehon dria, Mr. Hyde, or the “strange lodger” who took apartments in the mansion of Samp-on and Sally Brass. His neighbors —just as semi-provincial suburban people will do—fell to gossiping and all sorts of theories, vague and vapory in detail, were constructed to account for the problematic attitude of the stranger. The police were at last appealed to, and, having burst in the door of the “Jekyll of Auteuil,” they discovered that he was inoculating three ill-fated terriers with his own blood in order to ascertain if a bite which he had at one time received from a dog was likely to prove fatal. He was aiso, he contended, experimenting in the interests of humanity, in order to enable every man to be bis own Pasteur. —ljondon Telegraph. Directions for Self-Shampooing. Half the pleasure of having the hair washed and groomed, says the New York Sun, is to have someone do it who knows how. In England, in the large stores, there is a department of hair dressing where an accomplished barber, with every convenience for showering and drying, will wash the hair of ladies lor one shilling. In this country a good shampoo costs from fifty cents to $1 — which is a large sum for so simple an operation. After combing the snarls from the hair, braid it loosely and bind the end with a small elastic band. Draw tepid water in a basin and first wash the scalp thor oughly with enstile soap; then let the braid fall in the water, soap and wash as if clothes. Afterward thoroughly rinse and wring the braid in a towel. Wipe the head dryj undo the braid and brush out, beginning at the lower end, when it will not tangle. Let the hair loose in the sun and air and it will dry in less than half an hour. A woman’s hair should be washed at least monthly if kept fine and healthy. A Street Car Utopia. A Baltimorean, writing from Dresden, Germany, to a friend in that city, says “it was here that 1 saw the best managed street car lines. The hill boys are men, and the ‘jaded’ hill horses are ‘fiery steeds;’ all the company’s employes are uniformed, and such uniforms are not on our police; they look more like our military dress. The cars are spotless, double-decked, first and second class, roof cheaper; first-class fare, fifteen pfennigs, or less than four cents from end to end of the route, and ten pfen for shorter distances. The horses go like race horses, and are evidently not overworked. There are waiting rooms at numerous crossings along the route, and the morning papers are kept on the racks—two papers to each car.”—Com mercial Advertiser. THE FOUNDER OF CHICAGO. Ho Was a Coal Black Negro from the Island of San Domingo. [From the Chicago Times.] The name of the real founder of Chic ago, which has been left unsung by the proud Caucasian and permitted to drift into oblivion, is hereby rescued. It was Jean Baptiste au Sable, and its owner was a San Domingo negro, with com plexion as black as the character of the fiend who would attempt to bribe au Alderman with a block of imaginary stock in a mythical railroad. The name gave rise to a suspicion of French blood in Jean’s veins, but there was nothing in any feature to show it, and no doubt lie was an African of the purest type. He had in his mind the founding of a great empire in the wilderness, and be lieved that a commingling of negro and Indian would produce the typical race' of the world—large in brain and invin cible in war. He had doubtless heard legends of the most famous of his race. Hannibal, who, descending the Nile, crossed into Europe, and after over throwing the Roman legions advanced upon the “Mistress of the World” with a myriad of men. In order to do this, too, it was necessary to march his hosts across the Alps, and this was accom plished in a manner so superb that the later effort of Napoleon was but a feeble imitation. It is certain, however, that Au Sable had dreams of power and empire. He thought first to ingratiate himself with the neighboring tribes of Indians, eventually consolidate them, and be come chief of a great nation. As a pre liminary step, and to provide for a future capital, lie prospected through out the vast wilderness, aud with pro phetic vision chose this as the locality. Nothing could change this determina tion, and despite the wiles and blandish ments of real estate dealers at Marquette and Fort Clark (now Peoria) he took ftossession in 1799 of a strip of ground ying north of the river and extending from what is now Clark street to the lake, Thereon he built a hut and proceeded to negotiate. Like many a white man before and since, Jean seems to have a great head for schemes, but a poor one for diplo macy, and after two or three years ol incessant toil and increasing intrigue his vision of power faded away. Lo was suspicous, aud would have none of it, and this distrust of his motives seems to have broken the adventurer’s spirit, as he soon abandoned his claim; and being desirous of ending his life as soon and easily as possible located on the Illinois river near Peoria, where he soon died of break back ague. Thus ended the dreamed of-empire and per haps obviated the necessity of civil rights law enabling white people to en ter negro hotels and theatres in Chic caero. DISCLOSED BY A CLOUD BURST. A Buried City Strangely Brought to Light in New Mexico. The propriety of a bill introduced a day or two ago by Chairman Holman of the Committee on Public Lands into the United State? House of Representatives, to set apart a large tract of land near Coohite, on the Rio Grande, in New Mexico, as a national reservation, on account of its many archaeological re mains, was illustrated aud confirmed by the Hon. Amada Chavez, one of the leading citizens of the Territory, who lives not far from that section of 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 whjjh had never even been suspected bef™». The action of the windshado covered the larger por tion of the ruins with sand aud 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 skeloton, and remains of the hair, which was not black, but 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 coiner. It looks more like the 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. Iu the centre of this structure was 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. Letter From the Ex-Shcrifl'nf Chautauqua Con my, Jiew York. Mayville, N. Y., Dec. 2, 1885. I am glad to say, from a long personal ex perience with Allcock’s Pohous Plasters, that I am able to endorse all the good things that have ever been said about them, and sup plement these by saying that I frankly believe their value cannot be estimated. Their breadth of usefulness is unlimited, and for prompt and sure relief to almost every ache and pain that flesh is heir to, no other remedy, in my opinion, either external or internal, equals them in cer tainty and rapidity. I have used them at one time for rheumatism, another for backache, again for bronchitis, always with the same re sult—a speedy cure. L. T.Tlaiuuxqton. The Princes of Uajpootana.

The convention of wholesale liquor dealers find distillers, who met in Chick ering Hall, New York, was in favor of the i olio wing principles, regard lets of politics: “Fewer saloons; higher li cense; closing saloons on Sunday; dis couraging saloons where women and children are allowed to buy liquor, either for themselves or others; refusing to supply money to disreputable men in the liquor business, and prosecuting any li quor dealer who may violate the law.” In South Africa there are 223 Presby terian congregations, numbering 54,320 communicants, and controlling live col leges—one each at Cape Town, Welling ton, Burghersdorf, in the Orange Free State. A Dream of Fair Women. Tennyson in his exquisite poem, dreams of a long procession of lovely women of ages past. This is all Very well, but the laureate would have dono the world a greater service if he had only told the women of the present how they could improve their health and enhance their charms. This he might easily have done by recommending the use of Dr. Fierce’s Favorite Prescription. Health is the best friend of beauty, and the innumerable ills to which wo men are peculiarly subject, its worst enemies. Long experience has proven that the health of womankind and the “Favorite Prescription” walk hand in hand, and are inseparable. It is the only medicine for women, sold by (Irtig gists, under a positive ffuaranUe from the man ufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money will be refunded.
