fOKTHE FARM AMD HOME.
Halt far Animal..
An official report from the department
{ agriculture in France gives the follow
. reasons why animals should be
fed salt: First, salt ought to be given
w replace the saline parts that are 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 wet
food and meadows to sheep, and prevents
ro t among them. To which it may be
added that, according to Professor John
aon 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 the skin, kidneys,
etc., the necessity of a continuous supply
to the healthy body becomes sufficiently
obvious.
Transplanting.
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
can be cultivated with a harrow. Last
rummer he 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
the past ?
The Care of Calve..
Many farmers have suffered osses
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 deli
cate, and will not stand irritation such as
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
ticles of husk. If these are not removed
they are, however finely ground, likely
to cause serious irritation. 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.
IFomestic I’ond 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
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 the 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
is 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. Os 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 lawn.— N. E.
Earner.
Planting of Fruit Tree*.
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 the 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 sopie
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
lng 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.
Let the tree be set as deeply as it stood
before removal. If the tree be 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
I become rather drv 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 is planted, any
kiud 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
and sunshine. The 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 be an
abundance of fibrous and unmutilated
roots. — E. P. Roe, in HarpeAe.
Experiment* with Inseetldes.
Dr. C. V. Riley, United States Entom
ologist, in a pamphlet just issued by the
Agricultural Department at Washington,
makes public the results of the use of a
great many insecticeties on various
plants. An emulsion of kerosene, crude
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 the
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 the foliage it
caused the margined blister beetle to
cease feeding and leave the plants. [The
various blister beetles feed upon a variety
of plants other than beets.]
The use of tar water upon ant burrows
in a walk did not kill the ants, but only
c:>.u-ed them to open new burrows. [lt
may be remarked that ants arc among
the most difficult insects to exterminate,
I and as a rule, they should not be, since,
except when the burrows occasion some
mechanical difficulty, they arc benefi
cial.]
On lettuce three ounces of Wolf’s soap
to one gallon of water proved effective
in killing the aphis or plant louse. A
saturated solution of salt and water,
killed 50 per cent of the aphis. Another
application killed both aphis and plants.
A solution of soluable pincolum, fifteen
parts to eighty-five parts of water, seemed
effectual in killing woolly aphis, since
none appeared for forty days after. On
aphis c r the apple tree, fifteen parts of
soluable pincolum to eighty-five parts of
water killed them. A weaker solution
was not effective.
The same solution killed 75 per cent of
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 trees and caused the whole
cluster to fall to the ground. A few
larvte 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 in
forty-eight hours.
Mr. Thomas Bennett of New Jersey, 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.— York

Recipeg.
Bread Pudding.— Slice the bread thin,
cut all the crust off, butter the slices,
then lay each slice in a dish and cover
with raisins, make a custard and pour
over till the dish is full; then bake till
the custard is done.
Preened 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; pom
the liquor over hot; set away till cold
and then 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 taste, 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 lard 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.
Household Hints.
To make eggs froth quickly when
beating them, add a small pinch of 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 till
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.
Whan 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 mustiness of the contents famil
iar to boarding-house sufferers.
A King with an Appetite.
Victor Emmanuel, among his other
peculiarities, was a tremendous cater,
and preferred to take his meals in the
strictest privacy and with the most entire
freedom from restraint. Often, when he
was only King of Piedmont, he would
have all the dishes put on the table at
once, and then send away all the ser
vants. At such times, writes a Rome
correspondent of the Providence Journal,
he would cat with his elbows on the ta
ble, upsetting the salt on the cloth, that
he might the more easily dip into it the
little raw onions which he was so fond
of, and which he used to nibble all
through the dinner.
The quantity that he could cat was
amazing. On one of his hunting trips he
and his companions stopped at the house
of a countryman for the night. At sup
per they had veal cutlets. After the
meal was over the king turned to the officer
next him and asked him how many he
supposed he (the King) had eaten. As
his plate was bare, for he had been throw
ing the bones to his dog, the officer, who
had been watching the disappearance of
the cutlets with awe, thought that he
might venture on a bit of politeness, and
replied “Two or three.” The King re
peated the question to the others in turn,
and they all, out of respect, similarly un
derestimated his exploits, until became
to Savoyard, who had no regard for any
thing but the truth, and replied prompt
ly, “Your Majesty has eaten nine.” The
King laughingly admitted that he was
right.
It was about the same time that anoth
er characteristic incident occurred. The
King and one of his friends, Signor J.,
had taken shelter for the nightrin the hut
of a countryman, who had not the re
motest idea of the identity of his illustri
ous guest. The King noticed that Sig
nor J., who was sitting near the fire next
the host, kept turning away his bead.
“What is the matter with you?” asked
the King, in French, which, by the way,
he spoke like a Parisian. “I can’t stand
the smell of this man,” said J., “he
smells like a wild beast.” “Bah!” said
the King, “any of us would smell like
that if we went for a week without wash
ing.” “Oh, never.” “Yes we would,
I’ll try it myself.” So the King went to
work conscientiously and never washed
himself the least little bit in the world.
At the end of five days J. came up to
him and touching him respectfully on the
elbow said: “Your Majesty has won
your bet. and not at the end of a week,
but of five days.” The king shouted
with laughter, and was highly delighted
with the whole adventure.
Slaughler of Feathered Favorites.
Flowers arc fairest in the fields and
gardens, where nature unfolds and nour
ishes them ; and birds are not really beau
tiful unless seen fluttering with free
wings in their native air and sunshine, or
heard charming the woods with their
liquid notes. Is there not a strong sug
gestion of barba. ity in the edict of fash
ion which demands the yearly sacrifice of
thousands, or, rather millions, of the
bright-plumaged pets of nature, merely
to trim hats? We sec them everywhere,
in the streets, in church, in the theatre,
on the heads of mothers, grandmothers,
mothers-in-law, pretty girls, and presum
ably innocent children—birds mounted
bodily, wings, heads, tails, feet and all.
A woman of fashion recently ordered a
whole dress to be trimmed with canaries.
Often a hundred humming-birds are
butchered to make a vain belle’s holiday.
The effect of such displays is painful.
How is it that tender hearts which would
mourn over the robbing of a bird’s nest
feel no pang when the mangled body of
the bird itself is impaled on headgear?
If fashion must be followed, at any cost
to the feathered tribe, let its decree take
a more specific and utilitarian form; let
it spare the beauties and the sweet sing
ers, and make the odious English spar
row the sole plumaged trophy permissi
ble on that otherwise delightful and
dainty structure, the Spring bonnet.—

LEECHES.
Where They Come From and
What is Done w’th Them.
A Cincinnati Buber who Imparts and
Sells the Leeches.
“Screaming Isaac! Whnt that?
shrieked a reporter of the Cincinnati Sun,
jumping from a bobber’s chair on West
Sixth street, as the proprietor, Peter Mus
chler, unscrewed the lid of a heavy air
tight and mysterious box, and disclosed
2,000 greasy, wiggling, villainous worms,
pulling themselves out about four inches
and bowing to the half-dozen customers
on the opposite ehairs.
“Oh, come back,” said the barber, re
assuringly. "Nothing but leeches 1 have
just imported from Sweden. Perfectly
harmless sir. I •have been importing
leeches for many years, and am the only
importer this side of New York. The
use of leeches in Europe is very common
—much more so than in this country.
People over there only die happy when
they have a leech on their bodies. The
worms are found in a composition of de
cayed wood and vegetable matter known
as ‘turf,’ which is used as a substitute
for coal by the poor of Euroj>e.
They are shipped to me in
small boxes of their native cle
ment, about 2,000 in each consign-
ment. I get four boxes every year now,
though I used to sell 10,000 and 12,000
leeches in Cincinnati annually. Who are
my customers? Oh, everybody; but prin
cipally physicians and oculists. The
drug stores buy a great many, and I have
a good trade with the hospitals. I also
sell to a few barber shops in the city.
“The eye doctors use leeches for weak
and inflamed eyes. You sec, the worm
sucks the surplus blood around the eye
and removes the cause of inflammation.
Persons afflicted with neuralgia find a
leech a good remedy. Every day I make
sales to families whose names are not dis
closed. You would be astonished to see
a printed list of the people who keep
leeches in their families, and who don’t
want anybody to know it. What do
they cost to import? Well, that is one
of the secrets of the trade. I retail them
at $lO per hundred, or $1 50 a dozen.
Os course, when a customer calls for one
only I charge him a quarter. A leech,
you sec, is a little like a toothbrush—
everybody wants one of his own. In
deed, it is not considered safe to use a
leech twice, because the impure and
poisonous blood they draw from their
subjects impregnates their system, and
they would likely communicate poison.
Hence they arc killed as soon as their
work is done. You wonder how much
blood they drink? Well, it varies with
the size of the leech. But I should say
two ounces at least. Won’t you exam
ine one closer?”
Here the barber reached down into the
hatful of kicking worms, selected a spec
imen, and seizing it by the tail, though
it seemed to be all tail, held it up to the
light. It was then seen to have ten eyes
no legs and possessed more belts and
rings than the planet Saturn. It had a
bad mouth for blood, while the hungry
expression in its eyes gave way to pity
and condolence at the gaunt and pallid
face 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
ern 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.”
A Field nf Corn on n Hot Day.
A grand sight is a field of corn on a
hot day. I remember being on a train
in Southern Illinois which, on account
of obstructions on the line, had to lie
upon a siding for several hours. Noth
ing but corn was in sight over the great
level plain. I wandered among the im
mense stalks, some at least fourteen feet
high; a heavy dew had fallen during the
night, and the hot morning sun was now
well up in the heavens. Crack after
crack responded like pistol shots. It
was the corn bursting its coverings. I
imagined I could actually see it grow;
I know I felt it do so. What would
America do without its maize and cot
ton, the two pillars upon which its agri
cultural supremacy so largely depends!
She is pretty sure of the future, how
ever, for upon no other portion of the
globe can these be grown to such ad
vantage.—Andrea Carnegie.
A Mistake Corrected.
“We feel,” writes a western editor,
“that an apology is due to Widow
Grimes. In our issue of last week we
stated that she had eloped with an
eighteen-year-old man. The truth was
that she was thrown from an eight-year
old mare, which she was riffling 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.”

Opium or death I”
This brief sentence was fairly hi used into
Inr ear of a prominent druggist on Vine street

One can scarcely realize the sufferings of
an opium vittun. De Quincy has vividly por
trayed it. I u who can fitly describe the joy
of the rescued victim!
H. C. Wilson, of Loveland, 0., formerly
with March, Hnrwo *d X* Co., manufacturing
chemist* of St. Ixniis, and of the well-known
firm of H. C. Wilson & Co., chemists, for
merly of this city, gave our reporter yester
day a bit of thrilling iiersonal experience in
this line.
“I have crawled over red hot bars of iron
and coals of fire,” he said, “in my agony
during an opium frenzy. The very thought of
my sufferings freo.e< niy bloo 1 and chilis my
tKHivs. 1 was then eating over thirty grains
of opium daily.”
‘‘How did you contract the habits
“Excessive business cares broke me down
and my doctor prescribed opium! That is
the way nine tenths of vases commence,
n hen I determined to stop, however, 1
found I could not do it.
<» u You may *** surprised t > know,” he said,
“that two- fifths of the slaves of morphine and
opium are physici? .in. Many of those 1 met.
'' e studied our cases carefully. We found
out what the organs were in which the appe
tite was developed and sustained; that no
victim was free from a demoralized condition
of these organs; that the hope of cure de
pended entirely upon the degree of vigor
which could be imparted to them. 1 have
seen patients, while undergoing treatment,
compelled to resort to opium again to deaden
the horrible pain in those organs. I marvel
how I ever escape I.”
“I>o you mean to sav, Mr. Wilson, that
you has e conquered the habit/”
“Indeed I have.”
“Do you object to telling me how!”
“No, sir. Studying the matter with sev
eral opium eating physicians, wo became
satisfied that the appetite for opium was lo
cated in the kidneys and liver. Our next ob
je t was to find a specific for restoring those
organs to health. Th a physicians, much
against their code, addressed their attention
to a certain remedy and became thoroughly
convinced o:i its scientific merits alone that
it was the only one that could lie relied U|>on
in every case ofd sordored kidneys and liver.
1 thereupon began using it and, sup| leinent
ing it wit h my own special treatment, finally
got fully over the haiiit. I may say that the
most important part of the treatment is to
get those organs first, into good working con
dition, for in them the appetite originates
and is sustained, and in them over ninety
|>er cent, of all other human ailments
originate.”
“For the last seven years this position has
been taken by the proprietors of that remedy,
and finally it is becoming an acknowledged
scientific truth among the medical profession;
many of them, however, do not openly
acknowledge it, and yet, knowing they have
no other scientific sj>eciflc, their code not
allowing them to uss it, they buy it upon the
quiet and prescribe it in their own bottles.”
“As I said Itefore, the opium and morphine
habits can never l»e cured until the appetite
is routed out of the kidneys and liver. I have
tried everything,— ex[ erimoutod with every
thing, and as the result of my studies ami
investigation, I.can >ay I know nothing can
accomplish this result but Warner’s safe
cure.”
‘‘Have others tried your treatment/”
“Yes sir, many; and all who have fol
lowed it fully have recovered. Several of
them who did not first treat their kidneys
and liver for six or eight weeks, as I advised
them, completely failed. This form of treat
ment is always insisted upon for all patients,
whether treated by mail or at the Loveland
Opium Institute, and supplemented by our
special nrivata treatment, a/waj/s cures.”
Mr. Wilson stands very high wherever
known. His experience is only another
proof of the wonderful and concerted power
of Warner’s safe cure over all diseases of
the kidneys, liver and blood, and the dis
eases caused by derangement of tho e or
gans. We may say that it is very flattering
to the proprietors of Warner’s safe cure
that it has received the highest medical
endorsement and, after persistent study,
it is admitted by scientists that there is
nothing in materia medica for the rest,ora
tion of those gn at organs that equals it in
power. We take pleasure in publishing the
above statements, coming from so reliable
a source as Mr. Wilson, and confirming by
personal experience what we have time and
again publi hod in our columns. We also ex
tend to tho proprietors our hearty congrat
ulations on the results wrought.
