A Hindoo Uolil Buir. The ancient annual ceremony of "Tal libbarum," or weighing the Maharajah of Travaucere against an equivalent weight of gold, has come round again. It ap pears to have been conducted this year with great pomp and ceremony, for the present Maharajah is a Hindoo ol the orthodox type, who appears to keep up the traditions of his home. Some months before the ceremony, the Government purchased through its commercial agent at Alleppo, about 2000 pounds' weight of pure gold, the greater part of which was converted into coins for this pur pose. After presenting an elephant and offerings to tho shrine, the Maharajah entered the building prepared for the oc casion, and having completed the pre liminary ceremonies, mounted one of the scales. The sword and shield were laid in his lap; in the other side of the scale gold coins struck for the occasion, were placed by the first and second princes till it touched the ground, and the Maharajah rose in the air, the priest meanwhile chanting Vedie hymns. Volleys were fired, the band played, and the troops presented arms. The Maharajah wor shiped at the sliriue and then went to the palace. Subsequently the Dewa n and other officials distributed the coins from tho fort gates to about 15,000 Brahmins. When Snake Poison Is Harmless. Nature stems to have provided that no poison which acts externally shall have any effect internally, and vice versa. Thus the most deadly snake venom cau be swallowed with impunity, the juice of the stomach presumably decomposing it and rendering it harmless. Many ex periments have been made to prove this. On one occasion recorded by Humboldt one person swallowed the whole of the poison that could be obtained from four Italian vipers without suffering any bad consequences. In the same way tho poison from the envenomed arrows of South American Indians can be swal lowed with safety, provided only that there is no wound on the lips or inside of the mouth.—Washington Post. § Eyesight SAVED. 44 My boy had Scarlet Fever when 4 years old, leaving him very weak anil with blood poison ed with canker.

Boots should be used in driving and breaking young horses, even though they are open-gaited and do not strike. Colts are looking everywhere but where they step, and sometimes get their feet mixed. In such a case they may hit a cord or tendon, which is apt to disaable them for weeks or months, and some times for life. Charles Marvin, who for merly trained the Palo Alto colts for Senator Stanford of California, always booted the youngsters thoroughly when they took their work. Boots are not to keep a hcrse from interfering, but to protect him when he strikes himself. —American Agriculturist. CHOICE HOSES. Tea roses are always pretty, and their delicacy in coloring, shape, and fra grance does not seem to extend to their growth, for they give almost always good results. The Bonsilene is one of the most most popular of all roses, its buds being particularly beautilul. Tho La France, another favorite, is olten classed among the tea roses. It ha i pink petals shaded off to a very light, and sometimes white, color at the edge. Not only aro its close buds beautiful, but the flower in full bloom is one of the prettiest of the pink roses. The Som breuil is creamy white, often tinged with pink, and is a frequent bloomer. The nuchesse de Brabant is a delicate shell pink rose.—American Farmer. THE POTATO ROT. The potato rot fungus attacks both the foliage and the tuber of the plants, caus ing in the one case what is called blight of the vines and in the other what is best known as potato rot. The first appear ance on the leaves is seen in yellow spots and a powdery substance on their sur face. These spots soon turn brown, and finally the whole plant becomes infected and dies. If the leaf spines come in contact with the tubers, or if the fungus reaches them through the stems, rotting of the tubers ensues, provided there is a continuance of warm, moist weather, which seems to be a condition attending the prevalences of-the disease. In seasons when the at mosphere is cool the tops are not at tacked, and if the soil remains cool the tubers will often escape when tho tops are destroyed. Unfavorable climatic conditions of course cannot be prevented,but it should be remembered that a loose, light soil does not promote the decay like one in which water is held and the air euters with difficulty. Deeply planted potatoes may escape, while tubers lightly covered may more readily contract the disease from the vines. As a rule potatoes should be dug as soon as the vines show that they have been struck by the rot. As an applied preventive, some of the experiment stations have reported favor ably on spraying the vines three or four times with the Bordeaux mixture. Used at half strength and with Paris green,be ginning with the appearauce of the po tato bug, it may be made to serve two purposes. Early planting and early har vesting are also in the line of safety against the potato rot.—New York World. GEESE FOB PROFIT. The two kinds of geese most largely kept where there is an eye to the protits are the Eiubdcn and Toulouse. The plumage of the E.nbden is pure white, and many persons claim it is the more profitable variety to keep, because the feathers bring a better price than those of tho Toulouse or gray Others prefer the Toulouse, because it will at taiu a heavier weight than the Euibden and seems to be a handsomer and better formed bird. An additional advantage is that where the grass run is good the Toulouse can be kept with a water trough only, while Embdens do not thrive as well as with a pond. Good pasturage is necessary, for geese are big eaters. With this and a good poud, keeping geese ought to pay without much trouble. As many as four geese may be allowed to one gander, but three is a better num ber. Toulouse nee.-ie will lay about thirteen eugs. While sitting all t ; iat is necessary is to leave them free togo out of their house to get food and water. A goose sits about thirty days. The youug ones cau be left in the nest twenty-four hours without feeding; then they should be taken out and led on plenty of green grass and given water, with a little oatiueal in it. The hot, dry weather of midsummer is hard an youug geese, because it dries up the grass and water. A few oats to them every day will help keep them thriving during this tiuie. The young gosliugs require to be kept warm and dry, and should not be allowed to swim for at least a fortnight. The goose should not be cooped up for that length of time, or she may rush the ';o*luii;» around too much—Connecticut Farmer.

If the calf's breath smells sour the stomach secretes too much acid. Half a teaspoon ful of bicarbonate of soda will correct the state of the organ when given in the milk at feeding. A tablespoonful of in fusion of gentian is a grateful tonic to the calves stomach. The infusion is made by boiling half an ounce of bruised gentian root in a pint of water for fifteen minutes. Keep the calf loose, in a dry, sunny stall nurse the youug thing, and when necessary give calcined magnesia, one-halt ounce; powdered opium, one to two grains, powdered rhubarb, one dram once or twice. Boil the milk and feed slowly by putting clean stones in the feed pail. Lime water, a lump of lime put into a bottle filled with water, is easily made, for lime is only very spar ingly dissolved in water. If the diarrhoea be troublesome, a tablespoonful of laud anum in the milk will restrain it. A calf should bo kept growing throughout its calfhood summer and winter. This brings a vigorous constitution to long life-service of the cow for the dairy, for family or for breeding purposes. We must lay the foundation for usefulness in animals when young. Most of our best cows owe their excellence to care and judicious feeding from birth up to ma turity, and the same care is equally bene ficial through life. That is equally true of all of our useful domestic animals.— American Agriculturist. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Feed the poultry early in the morn ing. One feed of corn daily is enough for the fowls now. Old geese usually lay and hatch earlier than young ones. Bread wet with skim milk is good feed for youug poultry. A dry run is absolutely necessary for the health of turkeys. Butter floats better when cold water is mixed with the buttermilk. Air-slaked lime dusted over the yards is a good preventive of gapes. Sweet pens should bo given support as soon as they get a good start in growth. Generous feeding will always pay. Any other sort is a loss both of food and labor. In warm weather, if tho young poultry are fed soft feed, no more should be mixed than is eaten up clean. Milk should not be allowed to cabber before the creain is skimmed, as in this way a great deal of cream is lost. Persistent losing of health and flesh iudicates that a cow is suffering from some ailment, and her milk should not be used. Bran, middlings, milk and clover must largely take the place of corn when feed ing for lean pork instead of a carcass of pure fat. In growing cucumbers for pickles keep the soil moist, and pick each day all that are large enough. We have doubled our crop by irrigating. As an animal increases in age and weight it requires a larger maintenance ration. That is why we get tho best profit by early maturity. It has been shown by recent experi ments that fresh cream butter is more apt to taste of tho food giveu cows than when the cream is ripened. A cow's simple cough may sometimes be cured by mixing a handful of whole flaxseed with wheat bran slops, and feeding it moruing and night. When the colt is first hitched ton wagen don't give a load that requires any effort to move. The foundation for many a balky horse has been laid iu this way. • To know if your stock is making satis factory gain, and paying for what they eat, they must be weighed at stated in tervals. A good platform scale is needed on every farm. Thirty bushels of wheat per acre is an effective answer to the question of whether fanning pays. This average can be had with good land, good seed and proper cultivation uud planting. Antoug small fruit growers, blackber ries hardly have the attention they de serve. We never seen surplus of good varieties of this fruit. On tho contrary, the supply raiely equals the demand. Late roasting ears are just as much ap preciated as early ones. One gets the best by planting the e»rly varieties of sweet corn again in August. The Early Minnesota answers well for this purpose. The American Agriculturist says:"To grow mignonette iu perfection the plants must not be closer than six iuehet each way and the top bud should be pinched off when the plant is two inches high. . Oats cut early (when in the dough) and made into hay, will help out the winter feeding of the horses if you ex pect to be short of timothy. It makes | one of the beat suostitutes fcr this pur p..se.

TO CLEAN CHAMOIS SKIN. Chamois may be cleaned in a weak solution of soda in warm water. Rub plenty of soft soap into the leather, and allow it to soak for two hours. Then rub it well till it is quite clean, and rinse it well in a weak solution composed of soda, yellow soap and warm water. If rinsed in water only, it becomes hard when dry.—New York Recorder. WALKS TO THE HOUSE. It is comparatively an easy matter to make a walk from the roadway to the house clear of weeds. Spread upon it the first season the ashes from the coal stoves, reserving that from the wood stovo for the cultivated land. If grass or weeds appear kill them by plentiful application of salt. Very likely the fruit trees adjoining will mo this salt, but it will kill the grass aud add to th 3 beauty of the place.—Boston Cultiva tor. A GOOD POLISHING POWDEII. One of the best polishing powders that were ever used in my kitchen, writes a housewife, I discovered quite by acci dent. The range was being cleaned out, and in the due under the oven thero was a quantity of gray dust, a sort of smoke deposit, as fine as flour, that was taken out with a large spoon. In washing the spoon it was noticed that a mysterious brilliancy was acquired, and the credit for this was quickly given to the smoke dust. Since then we have always used it for polishing tinware.—New York Journal. DESSERTS FOR BUMMER DATS.

A pap)ttM ~. a problem in j ch si said to have two snivel la the »n •» "I llsinv» the litest las h*en 1 u Uviid Ui the Uintah Eating the Flesh of Poisoned Animals. The subject of the use of the flesh of animals killed by poison has been studied by Schmidt-Mulheim with a view to de termine whether, if eaten by Men, such flesh would be injurious. As reported in the Revista Internazionale d'lgiene of Naples for June, 1891, it may be ,used without any danger whatever. Many savage races constantly use the flesh of the animals that have been killed with poisoned weapons and have never been injured by that means. Harms has proved (Universal Medical Magazine) that the flesh of animals that have been poisoned with nux vomica and with tar tarized antimony is not at all hurtful; Peser has demonstrated the same fact in regard to strychine and eserine; Spallan zani, Zappi, and Sonncnschein have done the same for arsenic. Frochner and Knudson have made some experiments for this purpose with strychine and with eserine. They fed dogs with large quan tities of mutton poisoned with strychino and eserine, and they found that no in jury whatever was done to the animals. Besides, they themselves ate some of the poisoned meat and drank soup made from it, and found that the flavor was good and had no injurious effects whatever on the system. In regard to the alleged in jurious effects caused by the meat of animals poisoned with hellebore, and which had eaten belladonna leaves, the authors have shown that the accounts published in this regard have not been proved and require further tests.— Science. What Is n "Texas?" "Very few people know the origin of the word texas, us applied to a certain part of a steamboat," said an old river captain at the Laclede last night. "All modern boats don't have tho texas, though it was an essential of tho old system in the halcyon days of steam boating. The texas, you know, is that apartment of the upper deck just be neath tho pilothouse where the crow shifts sleep. The word was first applied in the troublous times of the '3os and '4os, when Texas was first fighting for liberation from the despotic rule of Mexico, and afterward when the United States was plunged iuto war with tho Aztecs to maintain the rights the bravo Tcxans had wrung from Santa Aria. Re cruits from the United States were car ried down the Mississippi to Now Orleans, and thetico across the Gulf to Texas to help the Lone Star men in their war. The boats that took them down the river were the first to construct the apaitment for the crew, and that sup ports the pilothouse. This innovation iu boat building made it possible for travelers to peer through the little windows from an elevation that enabled them to see a greater scope of country on both banks than they had before been accustomed to s weep with their vision. The innovation coming oil just at the time that Texas was causing such acoin motiou all over the world, passengers and boatmen with one accord always re ferred to the apartment as the texas. The name has stuck to it ever since, and is about as good as auy other, though I often hear people wonder at its origin." —St. Louis Globe-Detuocrat. The immigration from England, Scot land and Wales does not change much ! from year to year, but remains close to 60,000 annually.

WORDS OF ADVICE^ FRO* A NOTEII I*ll YSICIAN. A Former Student ot Sir Morrell Mackenzie, of London, Kngland. Every physician of extensive practie i ad mits the difllculty—nay, almost hopelessness —ot treating Nephritic (kidney) troubles successfully. After seventeen years' ex perience in practicing my profession I had reached the same conclusion, and that our usual therapeutical agents were wholly inad equate to cope with such diseases, when my attention was called to*Di\ Kilmer's Swamp- Roof. C. F. BROWN, A, M„ M. D. 1 have always been prejudiced against tho use of patent medicines 'a failure peculiar to the members of my profession), but h -re was a preparation discovert* 1 by an old an I scientific physician whose wide experience, extending over many years, had given him exceptional advantages for treating disjass successfully. Was it not, then, possible that he had found a cure where others had faile 1? I determined to test the matter. Shortly after nrrivin? at this conclusion a young man came to consult mo who had been a great sutl'erer from Kidney and Liver troubles for many years. He had been treated by a number of our lea lin; physicians without obtaining auy relief, an I came to me as a last resort though with very littlo faith iu my ability to effect a cure. I prescribed Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Riot for him, and after taking the first bottle his condition was materially improved. He continued the treatment until he ha I use.l three bottles when ho was entirely curod an I to-day he is the picture of robust health an 1 vitality. Since then I hwe prescribe I Swamp-Root lor a number of my patients, and always with the most gratifying results, and now I believe it to bo the l>est re nedy for all Kidney, Liver and Blalder com plaints, both chronic or acuta, known to tho world, if not an actual specific. With Dr. Kilmer's U. & O. Anointment I have cured tho most stubborn cas) of hemorrhoids, or piles, of ten ye»rs' stan liui which had lieen pronounce I incurable at'ter all the approved reme lies ha I Ik-cu trie I without avail. It is needles) to add that experience has continued my entire confidence tu Dr. Kil mer's preparations, which I frequently pre scribe for my patients an I invariably with the happiest results; therefore it affords me great pleasure to most cordially recotum *n I them to suffering hum uiity aud to them • Il eal profession, us I feel sun they will ac complish all mi I even more th iu is claimed for them iu every instance.
