At the Veterinary Hospital of the UniTersity of PenosylYauia, the largest of its kind in the country, such cases are treated in an otoI brick chamber, pcr fectly dark. When this is heavily bedded with straw it is almost impossible for a horse to hurt himself. Insanity, or "dumminess," in horses is quite common. It is sometimes caused by a lesion on the brain, and is incurable, but when caused by stomach disorders it is often treated successfully. Chicago Herald. TIT1S CCnitAST BORER. The question is often asked why cur rant bushes grow weakly. Now and then a strong, rigorous shoot will appear, while most are puny. Me.lift.rj, in his Monthly, says that in most cases this re sults from the work of the currant borer. If a branch be cut across it will be found hollow. This channel is where tho borer has been. Only a very small black punc. ture on the outside of the stem shows where the insect Jaid his egg. If one could get used to noting this puncture in tlie fall of the yer, and cut out such twigs and burn them, it would help cur rant culture. New York World. TO DESTIIOT STUMPS. There have been several methods re commended for the destruction and re moval of stumps from cleared timber land, but so far none of them is of any practical value. The saturation of tho stump with kerosene oil is not easily possible, nor is its impregnation with solution of saltpetre or sulphuric acid ; and unless the stump is completely satu rated it cannot be burned with ease. The most ellective way is to throw out tho stump by explosive, and, as dyna mite is too dangerous for inexpert per sons to handle, the common blasting powder Is the best to use. The luuiil method is to bore a two-inch holo down to the centre of the stump and charge it in the usual way with the powder, using an iron screw with a holo through it for the (use to confine tho powder. In this way the stump may be split into pieces that am easily handled and the use of the wood for fuel will pay the cost of the work. New York Times. OKKSR KILL OKAS. Formerly geese were raised here Vermont in considerable numbers, writes O. S. Bliss, but feathers and car casses are neither as profitable as they were, aud the birds were fouud injurious to pastures, and few are now kept. We kept the Euibden, or, as they were then more generally called, the Bremen geese, for several years, and they paid well, but their run was so restricted that they pulled the best grasses up, so as to spoil the feed, and we got rid of them. Others kept the Toulouse, but our farmers gen erally contcuted themselves with a pure bred gander, and stuck to the natives and crosses. In my boyhood, father used to pick up among his neighbors enough to make up, with our own, a sleigh-load of fine carcasses and take them to Montreal every winter, and it paid ; but you could hardly persuade any body here to keep geese now if you gave them a good outfit of the best breed. Then tho grasses grew spontaneously and luxuriantly everywhere ; now the stand of grass is maintained only with care and expense, and a goose will eat and destroy as much as a sheep. I like to see a flock of fine geese, and if I lived where they could have a good run on strong deep land, where tbc grass could hold its own against them, I would keep them. Ncv York Tribune. WATKU IN THE DAIKT. In every gallon of milk there is at least seven pints of water, u fact in itself sufficient to couvince one that good milk cannot be obtained from au impure water supply, and that a shortage in quantity will be attended by an immedi ate and corresponding diminution of tho now; indeed, it would seem that the importance of water as an clement in milk production is represented by tha fraction representing its value as a con stituent. Some men seem to think that naturo made tho cow a filter or rectifying ap paratus, into which any amount of stale, unwholesome and impure water may be introduced with impunity, but the ex perienced cheesemaker knows better. In the course of an extended experience as a cheese instructor in Cauada, Scot land and the United States, tho writer of this article has met with more diffi culty from bad water than lroui any other cause. It is a fuct that in nine tenths of the pastures throughout tho dairy bftlt there arc low places, swaups and fri5( ponds, at which, in tho course of the season, tu cow are compelled to resort to quench their thirst. This ouht not to be. prudent dairyman will permit his dairy tj drink at these places. They should nlwayj ba filled up or fenced out, and an abundant supply of pure, living water be furnished at whatever cost. It requires from oue to three pound" morn of cwamp water milk to produce a pound of cheese thau it does of pure r.'uter milk, and it always engenders gaseous curd and cheese of loathsome flavor. American Farmer. KILLIN1 Tinsil.LS AND BfRDOl'K. At a Farmer" Institute at Hortonvitle, Wis., tb.' f'.ssayLu nRVC method of dealing with t'ie above weeds as follows. "If I Lad a y.itch -A Canada thistles I would turn i'l into a p.ixlurc aud suit my stock ou that lot at leat twice a week, aud I would cut olf at or below the sur lace what I didn't fait. If I could not turn it into par.ur: I would have a sharp plow and plow it, aud drag it thoroughly aiter it was plowed with a line tooth 3rag. Then cut them up wheuever they conic nn. 1 dug mine out twice a week with a spa 1c. In the fall of the year the weeds I'.iino up thick, and for fear I uiigh' miss some I put tho plow In and plowed it up again, uud killed them the drst year. Uei'o$enu will kill them, and salt in a wet ti re will kill them. Brine will kill them." The butd'ick hn cuts up as soon as he ecs it. An old root :n rich ground ofleubus '.he crown etvuu inches below the surface in loos rich ground. When cut below the crown they never sprout gam, but new ones may couia from the seed. Until mora than two years old they do not run down more than two or three inches and are easily killed. An old marticing chisel with a long handle is the best tool for such work, and it is improved by having a spur in the hand la upon which tho foot can be placed in cutting a tough root. J.any other weeds in the meadows or lawns are easiest killed with such an implement, and while it is quite a task to go over a ten-acre lot that is very weedy, yet tho number of such weeds that come after a year or two of cultivation and seeding to grass is not largo unless foul seed is sown. Ameri can Cultivator. ASPARAGUK. Asparagus is tho earliest, easily cared for, and most delicious of garden vege tables, yet in how small a number ol gardens it is found. It grows with the case of woeds, and when once started, if taken care of, it will come up every spring for a lifetime. It grows with great profusion iu the Southern States, coming up in the gardens, orchards and grain fields, and for several weeks fur nishes the farmers with a dish of tho most exquisite taste. Many farmers grow it for profit, and when cultivated and fertilized it will yield a net profit of $100 per acre. Before the plants begin to start in early spring the dead stilks of last year's growth are cut and raked o3 the field with a harrow, which loosens the soil at the samo time. As soon as the young stalks reach the height of six or eight inches they are cut, trimmed, packed in bunches of twelvo stalks to the bunch, and shipped to the city in crates. The cutting then continues at intervals un til the people get tired of asparagus and it does not pay to ship. After the cut ting is over the ground is thoroughly cultivated and the plants are hoed and fertilized. Asparagus can be raised from seed, but in starting small beds the best way is to buy tho plants. Thoy can be pro cured at small cost of almost any seeds man and will give the bed a start of at least a year. The soil should be well prepared rich loam and tho plants should be set out iu rows eighteen inches apart and a foot apart in the row.. Great care should be taken to get the roots spread and well covered. In the Northern States it is best to cover the beds some time in tho fall with three or four inches of manure, and early in the spring salt should be strewn profusely ou the bed. Suit is ono of the best fertilizers for as paragus, aud raw bone is excoltent. Asparagus is a luxury which every farmer can possess, whether he lives at the north or south, and I advise all those who do not already enjoy this most de licious of vegetables to set out a bed of asparagus this spring. It will do to be gin cutting in a year or two, after which it will be a source of pleasure as well as profit. Farm Herald. FARM AND OARDRS NOTES. ' Pumpkins are splendid food for cattle and hogs, and save a great amount of costlier rations. Put your sawdust around your currant and gooseberry bushes. They need good manure also, and will pay for it. We cannot make the finest grades of butter from any one feed ; but there is no question about our being able to make good butter fromensilagc,although not the best. If you will mix a ration of cottonseed meal, ground oats, wheat bran, wheat middlings or linseed meal with tho en silage, you will be able to make as good butter in January and February as in June and July. Some asparagus grower claims that an improvement of fifty per cent, can be made iu the asparagus bed by selecting two-year-old plants that bear no seed. These are males, and tho shoots from them will be earlier and larger. Keep a littlo box of ground charcoal, ono of clean, ground bone, and one of small, sharp Hint before the poultry, and plenty of coarse, sharp sand on the floor; I also, a box of ground oyster shells, as grit. But in recommending these sub stances it may be stated that any kind of sharp small grit will do. Squashes want light, saniy soil, with abundance of mauuie placed directly in the hill with the seed. But two plants should be left in each hill, and they be given about 100 square leet of ground to run over. They can thus bo made to produce five tons to tho acre, worth all the way from $0 to $10 a ton. AVhero there are undesirable trees or shrubs,wbich it is desired to have killed so completely that they will not sprout again, June is the tinn to cut them down. The sjp that was stored up from the previous year will bavo been ex pended and none new will have been prepared, and life cuds with the chop ping away of foliage.

A correspondent ot the Sunday-school Times writes to that journal expressing gratitude for the great increase of interest in temperance and temperance teaching, but viewing with alarm the rapid increase in the organized strength of the liquor trattta and urging increased organized temperance eifort ou the part of Christian churches, claiming, very properly, that it lies within the power of the Church of Christ greatly to lessen and eventually to destroy entirely this greatest of evils. The writer adds: "If a few men in each church or community will earnestly take the matter in hand, they will find themselves strong in the righteousness of their cause aud iu the great number who will follow their lead." He asks) "Are there not five, ten, or more in each church who are ready, if neoessary, to sacriho something to secure the execution of present la ws or the enactment ot better ones men who will not rest in their Hod-given might and say this crime of crimes shall be put down'r" He allirins that "Uod is ever ready to give victory to that kind of men.
