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. To freshen velvet hold the wrong side *vcr biding water. Karin and Varden IVotas. 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. Iteelpei. 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.

Philadelphia Cc.ll, A JEST CASE. 1 I K»«urdln« l.c<nl Advertisements ..-1 N»- lives I’ubllslieil In I’npers Vein* semly I’rlut Wheels. 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. Respectfully advised, Theodore Runyon, C. A. A, Van Fleet, V. C. A true copy. IL 8. Little, Clerk. 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. Wanted to Be Licked. “Jessie 1” “Yess'm.” “Don't you go out of the house while I’m gone.” “Oh, ma, I want to roll my hoop with the other girls.” “You’ve heard what I've said.
