FOR THE FARM AND HOME.
How «• Fe«l Youux chick*.
A correspondent of the Poultry Ta rd,
who believes that many chicks are killed
out of kindness, says; “I have raised
and cared for young chicks from my boy
hood and seldom lose any of them, never
had a case of gapes in my experience,
and no amount of disease of any kind,
save o ily oue. a number of years ago,
when I had a bad case of cholera among
inv old fowls. For years I have fed only
one wav, and always with success—no
hard-boiled eggs, or any other fancy
dishes. From the day they arc hatched
] feed them as much as they will eat five
times a day with a Johnny cake, made
of coarse meal, mixed with water as stiff
as it can be and thoroughly wet it all;
bake in an oven until done and crumble
it when fed. In addition to this, from
a week old, I keep good whole wheat or
cracked corn where they can help them
selves to .t at pleasure. With au abund
ance of clean, cold water, and coops well
whitewashed and kept thoroughly clean,
the above treatment will be found simple
and all that is required. Os course the
cake must be baked every few days and
none fed that is not perfectly sweet.
After chicks are a month old they will
not require much of the Johnny cake,
but will prefer the cracked corn and
wheat, though they will always relish an
occasional feed of the cake.”
91 nek for Manure.
A Pennsylvania farmer says: By care
ful management a large addition of ma
nure—the richest resource of the farm
may be made at the cost of some labor
and little money out of pocket. A con
si lerable bill for fertilizers is an eye
opener and sets one thinking how he can
save the large lot of money for so small a
lot of manure. An excellent way to
make a big manure heap is as follows:
Dig from the swamp—and if the farmer
is so unfortunate as to have none, let him
offer his more fortunate neighbor to dig
drains in his swamp for the muck he
throws out; but in some way get a lot of
swamp muck; 200 or 300 loads. Make a
heap—a big one, in a field; spread a foot
in depth of the muck, roughly, whiten it
all over with fresh lime from the kiln;
add more muck and more lime, and so on
until the heap is five feet high. It will
soon get hot and keep hot, and in the
spring will be a sweet, dark, rich mass of
valuable fertilizer, having from twenty to
fifty pounds of nitrogen, worth 15 to 20
cents a pound in artificial fertilizers, in
every ton of it. More muck may be put
in the cow yard; in the stable gutters;
and especially in the pig-pen along with
the horse manure, which will all be turn
ed over and over and worked upto a rich
compost with the refuse of the pig-pen.
Making manure is a fine art far too little
studied by farmers. Where swamp muck
cannot bo procured, leaves, straw, chaff,
and any or all other vegetable matter
may be gathered for this purpose.
Don’t Pare the Heels.
Among the causes of contraction of the
hoof is the prevalent custom of cutting
aw’ay the bars which ordinarily support
the heels and prevent their approxima
tion. This method is directly operative
in producing this deformity, which, in
some eases, may be considered in the
light of local atrophy—diminished nutri
tion. Diminished nutrition generally re
sults from disorder in the digestive or
gans, so that contraction of the hoof and
indigestion may co-exist, although many
physicians deny the co-existence of the
diseases. Contraction of this kind is
not apt to occasion lameness, because
there is a very low grade of vital action
in the parts. But contraction is now
and then the result of deep-seated dis
ease within the hoof-navicularthritis and
faminitis, for example; the animal is
then dead lame while the inflamatory
diathesis lasts.
Treatment—Contraction associated
with imflammatory action of the tissues
or cartilages of the foot must be treated
in the same manner as recommended for
laminitis: in all cases endeavor to give
the frog a bearing on the ground, and
in order to do this the shoe ought to be
removed. A dry, brittle, and contracted
hoof may be improved by repeated poul
ticing with soft soap and rye meal, op
plied cold. So soon as the hoof softens
let it be dressed night and morning,
with turpentine, linseed oil and powder
ed charcoal, equal parts. A run at grass
in a soft pasture, the animaljiaving noth
ing more than tips on his feet is the best
treatment. A very popular notion exists
that cow manure has a wonderful effect
on a contracted hoof, but filth and dirt
of every kind arc unfavorable to healthy
action. If any benefit belongs to such
an objectionable application it is due to
the property it possesses of retaining
moisture; therefore cold poultices and
water are far superior. Clay and moist
earth placed in the stall for the horse to
stand on are far inferior to a stuffing of
wet oakum, which’can be removed at
pleasure. In order to keep it in contact
with the sole, insinuate two strips of
wood between the sole and shoe, one
running lengthwise and the other cross
wise of the foot. It affords considerable
pressure to the foot, is cooling and clean
ly and is far superior to the above ar
ticles.— Chicago Herald.

A Maine correspondent says that the
l?cst way to start an obstinate horse is to
take him out of the shafts and lead him
around until he is giddy.
E. P. Roe believes that the trouble
with peach trees in New England is
their vitality is reduced by overbearing.
Moral, thin out your fruit.
F. D. Curtis says: “In no way can a
fanner turn a plot of land to better ac
count than to grow grass and apples to
make pork, which in turn will make
more grass ahd apples.”
The trees can bo protected from field
mice by banking the trees up a foot or
so with soil, and borers and rabbits can
be kept away by wrapping the trunks for
a foot above this with tarred paper.
Prof. Cook of the Michigan Agricul
tural college says that most of the failure
to destroy potato bugs by Paris green
comes from waiting until eggs have
been laid on the vines before applying it.
Make the first application just as the
plant comes up.
When cuttings fail to root satisfac
torily try layering. This propagation by
layers consists in placing the branches of
the plant in contact with the soil, the
moisture in which arouses into action the
root-developing power inherent in the
stems of most plants.
Farmers who grow only a few toma
toes in rich gardens do not generally
know that this vegetable is more suc
cessfully grown in fields with moderate
fertility. There is less exuberance of
vine but earlier and higher-flavored fruit,
with less tendency to rot.
If large watermelons are desired for
show or exhibition purposes, give the
vines a very deep, well-enriched soil and
do not permit more than one fruit to re
main on a vine. Pinch back the leading
shoots occasionally, and be very careful
not to injure the vine in any way during
its season of growth.
Plenty of water ought to be within
easy flight of the apiary. Nothing can
be better than a running brook, as bees
delight sipping water from damn sand
and gravel. When water must be sup
supplied artificially, it will save the life
of many a bee if the drinking vessels are
filled in early morning with warm water.
It is thought by some good observers
that the disease curl in the leaf of peach
trees is caused, or at least assisted, by
the lack of soluble potash in the soil. In
proof of this, it is stated that trees un
mistakably affected with curl have been
quickly changed to health through tha
application of unbleached wood ashe s
about the trees.
There are many waste corners abont
the farm and door-yard where there is
room for a fruit tree of some kind, or for
a row of currant, goosberry, raspberry or
blackberry bushes. There is no better
place for these than along the fence in
the backyard. Tie the raspberries and
blackberries to the fence to keep them in
place, and have nice fruit and easy pick
ing.
Nursesies and orchards should receive
a good trimming every year, and a good
manuring as far as the extent of the
branches every three years. Peach trees
do best in a perfectly clean and mellow
jground, but apple and pear trees seem to
do finely in a sod ground, provideel the
grass is kept from the butts of the trees,
which is easily done by a little spading.
Never allow any suckers to grow out.
The best time to plow under a weed
to benefit the land is while it is very
small We have some kinds of cultivated
plants which by growing up and return
ing to the soil add to its fertility, but a
weed would hardly deserve that bad
name if it would do this. Weeds are
robbers. What they contain is almost
exclusively from the soil, from what be
longs to the crops among which they sow.
The midsummer season is not a trying
one to live stock, except in times of pro
tracted drought. Water must be pro
vided, but the quantity need not be
great, and where it is low or has to be
hauled, animals, except milch cows,
should be limited as to quantity. Milch
cows should have corn-fodder cut up
and fed green daily, if it is an object
to keep up the flow of milk during
drought.
Where room is abundant a bed of
hardy roses, if kept in good shape, is
very attractive. Roses do not stand be
ing crowded in with other shrubs, or be
ing planted against fences or buildings
very well. Their best place is in a cen
trally located bed cut in the lawn, allow
ing plenty of air and sunshine. Circular
or oval forms of beds are pleasing ones.
The plants may be set two or three feet
apart each way, starting near the edge.
Setting plants of other kinds in the bed
between the roses is not advisable.
Household Hints,
Ammonia water is the best for cleansing
brushes.
When the burners of lamps become
clogged with char, put them in a strong
soapsuds and boil awhile to clean them.
To keep silver-plated articles bright,
dip them occasionally in a solution of
hyposulphide of soda. Large articles,
Hke pitchers and salvers, should be
wiped off with a rag dipped in the solu
tion and dried with a soft towel. By
rubbing with a piece of chamvia-leather
they will be as bright as now.

To Bake Fresh Mackerel.— Remove ths
heads, clean, replace the rocs, rub with
salt, pepper and allspice, pack iu a deep -
pan and bake one hour.
Tongue Toast— Make some slices of
toast, uot very thick, browned evenly
all over on both sides, and minus crust.
Butter it slightly. Grate with a largo
grater a liberal sufficiency of cold tongue
and spread it thickly over the toast.
Lay the slices side by side on a large
dish. Serve at breakfast luncheon or
supper.
Boiled Indian Pudding,— This is im- ■
proved for some people if suet is added :
to give It richness. Chop a quarter of a
pound of beef suet very fine, add an
equal quantity of sugar, one teaspoonful j
of ginger, half a teaspoonful of salt,
enough sweet milk to moisten the meal,
and a teaspoonful of baking pewder, or
about a cup of sour milk and a teaspoon- i
ful of soda. This should boil in a bag
for at least three hours, and be served
hot, with wine sauce.
Corned String Beans.— Drain off tho
liquor, and, covering them with cold
water, slightly salted, leave them for an
hour. Drain and cook twenty minute i
in boiling water, salted. Pour off this
and shake the beans in a colander. Then
stir quickly through them a tablespoon
ful of butter mixed with peppersalt, a
very little made mustard, and a table
spoonful of vinegar; put back over tho
fire, toss the beans lightly with a fork
until they are hot, and dish them.
Webster’s Marketing.
Daniel Webster is described by Major
Poore in many places. “He was known,”
says he, “as ‘Black Dan,’ .from his
swarthy complexion. He hud a stalwart
frame, a massive head, crowned with a
wealth of black hair, and his heavy eye
brows overhung cavernous eyes. He
was a marked man in any crowd. Daniel
Webster was a good liver, but he had no
care about money. Major Poore says that
he was often in pecuniary straits, though
his professional income could not have
been less than $20,000 a year. He re
ceived $70,000 for a single fee as counsel
for the commissioners on Spanish claims,
and his friends in Boston at one time
raised a purse to enable him to purchase
the house in which the millionaire
Corcoran now lives.” Daniel Webster
did his own marketing, says Major
Poore. He was a regular attendant ht
the Marsh market on market mornings.
He almost invariably wore a large,
broad-brimmed, soft felt hat, with his
favorite blue coat and bright buttons, a
buff cassimere waistcoat, and black
trousers. Going from stall to stall, fol
lowed by a servant bearing a large bas
ket in which purchases were carried
home, he would joke with the butchers,
fish mongers and green-grocers with a
grave drollery of which his biographers,
in their anxiety to deify him,
have made no mention. He always
liked to have a friend or two at
his dinner table, and, in inviting
them, sans cercmonie he would say, in
his deep, cheery voice: “Come and dine
with me to-morrow. I purchased a
noble saddle of Valley of Virginia mut -
ton in market last week, and I think you
will enjoy it.” Or, “I received some
fine codfish from Boston to-day, sir; will
you dine with me at 5 o’clock and taste
them?” Or, “I {pund a famous’possum in
the market this morning, sir, and left
orders with Monica, my cook, to have it
baked in the real old Virginia style, with
a stuffing of chestnuts and surrounded by
baked sweet potatoes. It will be a dish
fit for the gods. Come and taste it.”—
Cleveland Leader.
Counting the Fish in the I’jcbTc.
The shore fishing of the provinces oc
the Atlantic side is of sufficient import
i ance to bring the United States and its
neighbors to the verge of a quarrel, but
it is a small matter compared with the
opportunities open in the Northwestern
waters on this side of the continent. The
mackerel fishing, which is the present
matter of dispute, is of less importance
than the Banks cod-fishing, yet the
whole extent of the Newfoundland Banks
is only about 70,000 square miles, while
in the Pacific and Okhotsk we have 300,-
000 square miles, in Behring Sea almost
as much more, and around the Chou
magin Islands 80,000; altogether nearly
ten times are the area of the Atlantic
banks. The total money value pci an
num of the fisheries on the banks and off
the east coast of the British North
American Provinces is in the neighbor
hood of $25,000,000, which embraces
the catch of the vessels of all nations re
sorting there. When the fisheries of tho
North Pacific are developed to anything
like the extent of those of the North At
lantic they will form one of the great in
dustries of this coast.— San Francisco
Chronicle.

Some years since the Dover (N. J.) !
Index published a mortgage side. When
the property was sold under the mort
gage, the former owners claimed that the
sale was not legal, ns the paper publishing
the notice of it was what is known ns
ready-print that is, one-half of the
sheet was printed out of tho county.
Suit was brought in the court of cluin
eery to have the sale set n.iide. The fol
lowing is the decision of the chancellor
in the case:
In Ciiancf.uy of New Jkhsey:
Between Julius Hairhouse, petitioner,
and The National Union Hank, of Dover,
N, J., defendants; on petition to set
aside sale.
Upon petition, tiled in this court by the
above stated petitioner, to set aside a sale
made in pursuance of the commands and
directions contained in a certain writ of
fieri facias for sale of mortgaged prem
ises, lately issued out of this court iu said
cause wherein the National Union Bank
of Dover, New Jersey, was complainant,
and Samuel Cross and others defendants;
because the advertisement of said sale
was defective and not incompliance with
the statute in such cases made and pro
vided for certain reasons iu said petition
alleged and set forth. And upon the
matter being opened and argued to the
court by the respective solicitor and
counsel of the petitioner and of the Na
tional Union Bank, of Dover, N. J., and
the court having examined the said pe
tition and the facts therein stipulated to
be true, and the exhibits of the petitioner
and being fully advised in the premises,
it. is considered by the court that the ad
vertisement of said sale was legal and
sufficient, and was both a substantial and
literal compliance with the statutory re
quirement. It is, therefore, on this
twentieth day of July, in the year of
our Lord, one thousand eight hundred
and seventy-eight, ordered and directed
by his Honor, Theodore Runyon, chan
cellor of New Jersey, that the prayer of
said petition be denied, and the said pe
tition be dismissed.

Fairies.
Once we believed in fairies. We never
walked through fragrant, field but we ex
pected exquisite little fays to spring up
through the sod. We never looked at a
bright blossom but we hoped to see little
princes and princesses, clothed in gor
geous finery, resting like snowballs on
each dewy petal, and politely bowing to
us, as the wind gently wafted the dainty
leaf.
A rainbow-hued butterfly .was to us
the metamorphose of a fairy queen, and
wc would follow, with alia lover’s ardor,
her flitting among the buttercups and
daisies. At every misdeed of our child
hood, the fear of dreadful ogres and
witches was often our severest pun
ishment. We envied every “Sunday
child,” who, we firmly believed, knew
the “good people.”
Our disillusion in this matter caused
us more cruel suffering than even that
we felt when we found our doll was
stuffed with saw-dust.
What an infinitude of fancies and
worlds do fairies awaken! Poets are
peculiarly responsive to the idea, for
fairies must speak in sweet snatches of
song, not in plain prose. What delicate
imagery have they traced in the poet’s
mind! What suggestive fancies, what
pathos, what humor!
Milton's “Comus,’ abounds in satyrs
and pans; Spencer gives us a most af
fectionate glimpse of them; but it is
Shakespeare who fairly revels in them.
Take away those horrid witches of
“Macbeth,” and we can frolic with aban
don in the company of Puck and the
elves of his creation.
But to find a people firm in the belief
of fairies, we must go back to Greece.
Greece was a type of the childhood of
the world, and believed in fairies every
where. It assumed a form of worship.
They were to the Gteeks divinities
peopling the streams, and gods thunder
ing in the mountain tops; pans flocking
in the woods, and satyrs grinning in the
forests; cupids shooting their tingling
arrows from the trees, and harpies
screeching over the sea. Everywhere
did that nation display this buoyancy of
youth. It was the work of centuries to
free her from her wild fancies, but now
the fairies arc heard of only now and
then in the forms of brigands.
However- our skepticism is only skin
deep after all. Frequently the old spirit
comes back to us; truth reasserts itself.
If we but read a fairy tale wc close the (
time worn pages in a state of delight.
Again we fancy fairies in robes of gos
samer on every violet-fringed zephyr
that sails so lightly through the skies.
In the golden sunset we see the sparkle
and hear the rustling of the elfins’ wings.
In every brave and noble deed we see .
the fluttering wings of the good fairies
warding off temptation rind sin, and
directing the mind and arm in its grand
purpose.
