ALDERNEY CREAM AND CONSUMPTIVES.
E. M. IL writes to the Rural New Yorker
a s follows :
Ilan somebody Alderney stock for sale?
No Ji t ney so- Hear him expatiate on the
healing virtues of cream from Alderney
cows . In order to gain an audience, he
takes his place in the Country Gentleman—
avery respectable medium for advertising.
I°have you heard," he inquires, " that cream
from Alderney milk was /is] excellent for
consumptives? I am tbld that one of the
m ost celebrated physicians in Edinburg,
whose skill in the treatment of consumption
is ver y great, recommends its use as fully
equal to cod-liver oil, and much more pala
table. If' this is a fact, it is worth knowing,
and should greatly increase the value of this
breed of cattle." Ah I indeed I But what
i s the filet "worth knowing ?" There are
two that seem to have been discovered and
recommended by " the celebrated physician
of Edinburg" to the notice of the world :
first, that Alderney cream is fully equal to
cod-liver oil for consumptives; and secondly,
that it is "more palatable "—a notable dis
covery, worthy of the "distinguished phy
sician," for which we thank him, making
our politest how, and of which we intend to
avail ourselves to-night in connection with
our tea and raspberries. •
But is it quite as well known as it ought to
be that a milk-and-cream diet is most favora
ble to consumptives ? We would not be
s o nice as to limit this remedial luxury to
the few who have an Alderney cow. Any
good cow's milk will answer the purpose—
though we will not vouch for ,milk-men's
milk, which is manufactured from a chalk
quarry with the aid of a hydrant. Doubt
less there is a difference between the rich
ness of both cream and milk from different
cows; hut not enough to make it essen
tial in the question of dietetics. The Alder.
net's aro good ; and so are many of our na
tive cows. The prescription .of milk and
cream for consumptives is not a new thing,
—not first known, at least in this country,
in connection with Alderney cows. Dr.
TIMOTHY CHILDS, pretty well known for
many years, as head of the Pittsfield Medi
cal Institution, long ago, before he had ever
seen an Alderney, we must believe, substi
tuted cream for cod-liver oil ,for consump
tives. Only last year, a well-known prac
titioner sent an emaciated invalid up into
this region among the valleys formed by the
spurs of the Greon Mountains, with the ex
press direction to make a free use of milk
diet, which ho accordingly did, much to his
benefit, albeit there are no Alderneys herea
bouts. Another from a neighboring city
wont to New York, that he might receive
the best medical 'advice, which consisted in
ordering him to make breakfast and supper
on bread and milk alone; and this he fol
lowed to the letter, remaining in the city
some months to eat bread and what, by
courtesy, is called milk. The best evidence
of the excellence of milk diet is the fact that
the man survived, when ho received so lit
tle milk and so much of water and other
ingredients. Tho two essential qualities of
wholesome milk are purity and cleanliness,
—the latter is seldom so carefully attended
to by milkers as it ought to be. With theSe
qualities milk and cream from any cows will
le found equal to cod-liver oil for consump
tives, and better than all the nostrums for
dyspepsia and nervous prostration.
But to secure this good effect, they must
be daily though not sole articles of diet.
The consumptive needs variety as well as
ethers in his food. But let him quench
thirst with cool milk ; eat it with bread, ap
ple pie, berries and, above all, with baked
sweet apples the year round if possible.
Let him eat cream and sugar, and not some
vile compound called gravy, on his puddings.
With some, molasses cookies and milk are a
favorite dish. Let all his salt fish, if he
cats any, be freshened in milk. With a lit
tle forethought and ingenuity a great va
riety of palatable dishes—aye, "more palata
ble" than cod-liver oil—can be made, in
Which milk or cream may be a large in
gredient. The more cream, of course, the
More concentrated and powerful, as a rem
edial agent, this diet will be.
And now, 0 •country friend, let me tempt
your palate by giving a recipe for one dish
of this kind. If you have not heard of it
before, you will thank me forever and bless
your stars that you live in the country
where pure milk and good fruit can be
easily obtained. I have not seen it in the
Rural, though it is not new. Take good,
fair, pound sweet apples—they are the best--
° llO lOr each of you, mind,—that is enough
for tea; pare and core them whole; steam
them thoroughly; put them on the table and
sprinkle them to your taste with white su
gar and milk or cream; then eat them; but
not without thanks to the Giver of all good
things.
MANURE FOR THE GARDEN.
Experience has proved what science has
taught us, that no matter . how rich and
suitable our soil, wheit , we commence to
raise crops and remove the produce, it will
become gradually unproductive. The reasons
ler this result have been fully stated, and
questioned by no intelligent cultivator.
We need not here enter upon the demon
stration of this fact; our purpose is to offer
few hints upon the best method of ob
viating this exhaustion of the soil. The ac
tive soil has been found to contain a certain
numbe r of essential elementary constituents ;
those exist in very various proportions in
?itterent soils. The absence of any of them,
h owever, renders the fertility.doubtful. The
entire want of the least of these elementary
Nola, is held to be disastrous to the cultiva
tor' In eases where less than the average
exists in any one of these, say magnesia,
or even manganese, and where we plant
"II! which takes up a large proportion of
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1867.
these particular constituents, we may unwit
tingly render our soil unproductive in a sin
gle season how carefully then should we
ascertain the nature of the soil, and the na
ture of the crop it is to bear, so that we may
replace the waste of any special ingredient.
Nor, to accomplish this, is there any neces
sity that we should be expert; chemists. We
have the teachings of experience to show us
that well composted barn-yard manure, proper
ly applied, will return to soil almost all the
principles required; a little lime or salt,
may, at times, be desirable, as an additional
application—but the use of these is pretty
well understood. We might with safety, af
firm that to soils of average quality, a suffi
cient annual dressing of barn-yard manure
would prove a preservative of fertility, pro
vided, always, that the fundamental princi
ples of good culture are complied with and
carried out. There are, nevertheless, circum
stances and cases, where special applications
of manures are productive of increased fer
tility, and where even barn-yard manure
should be so prepared as to correspond with
the texture of the soil. There are contin
gencies, also, where the favorite material is
beyond the reach of the cultivator at the
time required: in these cases, concentrated
fertilizers, such as a pondrette, super-phos
phate, guano, bone-manure, and other manu
factured substances, may be substituted, if
procured of good quality and applied skill
fully. A compost prepared by the cultiva
tor, in good season, and made up of fresh,
un exhausted loamy turf, decayed leaves, cow
droppings and stable litter, with such liquid
matter as is to be procured in the barn-yard,
together with a proportion of fully-dried
swamp muck, weeds and refuse, rotted or
burned; and, in fact, any such material as
farm or garden affords; such compost is of
more value to the kitchen gardener, when
kept for a sufficient time to render its de
composition certain, than any other manure
he can apply,.especially for hastening his
succession of vegetables as it is all-impor
tant that the material employed impart the
requisite stimulant at once.
There is much to be said in regard to the
requirements ofeertain soils and certain crops.
In this place we shall content ourselves with
remarking that soil newly broken up, will
not at first produce a variety of vegetables
in perfection, though it may be rich in all
the necessary elements. It requires commix
ture and comminution of its panicles, with
free access of air and water. If a heavy
clay, it will require several seasons to pul
verize it. If sandy soil, it will require the
addition of some tenacious material, such as
clay, or very fully decomposed barn-yard
manure and muck.
Fresh loam is, perhaps, soil mostly readi
ly reduced to fit state for general crops. If
the soil is tenacious, do not apply in a de
composed state; let the litter• be fresh, so
that it may decompose in the soil, produc
ing combustion, and consequently, meliora
tion of the cohesive properties of the soil.
For such a soil, guano, or similar fertilizers
are much inferior to litter. Some vegetables
dislike fresh manure in close contact with
their roots. Such are the carrot, parsnip,
pea, and others; there are many which will
not succeed in the absence of rich and high
ly-stimulating material, as cabbage, onions,
leek, celery, &e. Some of these are partial
to particular soils also, and several demand
a special routine or culture different from
that which agrees with their less fastidious
neighbors.—Country Gentleman.
CURE FOR THE DOG PLAGUE.-C. R Rock
ford (III.) referring to dogs writes :—When
dogs or wolves have made havoc among the
sheep, remove the dead and wounded from
the field with the exception of one. Hang
that one up on a tree or fork out of the
reach of the dogs. Cut from the ham a
numbpr of pieces and flavor each well with
strychnine, and drop them on the ground
near the carcass. You will probably have
an opportunity to collect the dog tax the
next morning, but the result need not be
published.
SUNFLOWER SEED.—Those who have sun
flower seed going to, waste will find it to
their advantage to feed it to the fowls.
Where poultry raising is made a specialty
it will pay well to raise sunflower seed for
feeding the fowls. They will eat it in pre
ference to corn.

A GREAT IMPROVEMENT.
The New York Central Railroad are now
adopting what seems to us one of the great
est improvements in the construction of a
railroad track yet discovered. We refer to
that which is called the Fish-joint. Instead
of laying the ends of the rails upon what is
called a chair, which will give, or rack, more
or less, in spite of all that can be done, and
will allow the wheels to strike the ends of
the rails with that pounding motion so com
mon, by this invention the ends are held
firmly in their place by a bar of iron two or
three feet long, inserted in the groove on the
inside of the rails, and stoutly riveted to
them: The effect in riding is the same as
on the compound or continuous rail; the
wheels gliding smoothly and almost noise
lessly along.
The advantages of this are many. It
must save much in the wear and tear of
machinery. The rolling stock must last
much longer. The rails cannot be so easily
displaced or broken, as these troubles most
frequently occur at the ends, where two rails
meet. Trains will not be so often thrown
from the track and smashed up. Great
damage and expense mist often be saved in
this way. And thus also the peril of travel
is lessened, and the rates of accidental in
surance might be reduced. .Rut better than
all we had almost said, the wear and tear
on nerves and ears- and eyes and throats I
must be greatly reduced. Talking and
reading will now be easy, and less hurtful,
because or less noise, less motion, and less
dust. The change is striking, the relief in
stantaneous, in passing from the old rail to
the new, as the substitution is as yet made
only on small portions of the road. But
large piles of the new rails are scattered
along the track, and workmen are busy in
various places making the change. When
it is completed the travelling public ought
to hold a big meeting and pass an unani
mous and loud vote. of thanks to the enter
prising Directors of this great central ave
nue of locomotion for their considerate at
tention to their safety and comfort.
The business and travel on this road
would seem to be increasing all the time.
Trains of twelve, fourteen, sixteen passen
ger coaches are seen passing over the road.
Cattle, sheep, . and hogs by thonsands are
coming from the West. And now, also,
loads of iron may be seen hurrying west
ward for the great Pacific Railway. These
cars, we are told, are loaded at Athens, on
the Hudson' RiVer, and unloaded almost at
the foot of the Rocky Mountains. The
gauge of the Central Road, correponding
as it does with, the roads westward, enables
its freight cars thus to pass right on where
eVer the iron is wanted, without breaking
bulk. Who could have predicted this even
twenty years ago? G-ENESEE.
A NEW SUBMARINE EXPLORER,
A number of gentlemen of New York city,
a few clays ago subscribed $5,000 to build a
new submarine explorer, with which to• at
tempt the recovery of the £1,300,000 from
the wreck of the frigate Ilussar, sunk near
Hell Gate. When the object of a diver has
been to attach ropes and chains to some
sunken body, it has been customary, and
found most convenient, for him to use only
a simple armor, and the same was the case
when he descended merely to examine the
location of a wreck or anything of that kind.
But, in cases where it was the object to send
several persons down at once, and lift the
weight directly or move it, as in laying the
foundation of piers under water, a bell, called
the Nautilus was successfully used. In cases
where attempts have been made to raise
sunken bodies by the use of a bell directly,
an air pump was placed on some vessel above
water, and persons g, - ,ing down in the bell,
after fastening it to the object to be raised,
would send up a signal to have more air
pumped into the bell, which, forcing water
out of the same, would raise a considerable
weight, even though the bell was not ac
tually brought to tne surface. This was a
preliminary proceeding to enable the divers
to place the object in such a position that
they could grapple it; after which hoisting
machinery worked it up to the surface. But
none of the bells hitherto used to any extent
have had any materiarlittin power of them
selves, the lifting power being generally ap
plied from the surface. The " Nautilus"
had chambers filled with water, into which
compressed air could be admitted from a
reservoir above, and thus rise and fall in the
water without sending any message to the
surface. The new submarine explorer is to
be so constructed that it will have a great
lifting power independent of any aid from
the surface. The bell, which is to be mode
rate in size, will have a working-chamber in
which several operators can work upright ;
interior diameter, 7 feet ; total diameter
from 9to 10 feet. It is claimed that it will
possess a lifting power of 100,000 pounds.
The bell is to be so adapted as to have a
horizontal motion, at its own control. This,
it will be seen, is a novel and important fea
ture, inasmuch as a vessel having only a
rising and falling power, might have to as
cend and descend 50 times to get an advan
tageous position. As to the depth to which
a man may descend, there is a great diversity
of opin ion. Many men go down without incon
venience 100 feet, and go down with compar
ative rapidity—st.y as fast as a man would
ordinarily descend a stairway. Others be
gin to feel unpleasant symptoms at a less
depth. It has been assumed by some that
the superincumbent weight of water renders
it almost impossible for the operators to
move about and perform their duties. This,
on the contrary, it is held, is evidently fat=
lacions, inasmuch as the pressure of the
air within the body balances the pressure of
the water without, so the pressure of the
water acting in every direction, neutralizes
any restrictive power that it would other
wise possess upon the body moving within
it. Connected with the bell, a plan has been
devised by which, during all motions of the
bell under wat_lr and the tender above, con
stant telegraphic communication can be
maintained between them.
OUR OWN GLACIERS.
Along with our other valuable property
in Russian America, we get a fine lot of gla
ciers. Mr. Win. P. Blake, who has seen
them, makes a satisfactory report of their
number and condition in &Wotan' s Journal
for July. 'From this statement, it appears
that the glaciers are not on the Pacific. coast,
south of Sitka, where the weather is too
mild for their perfect development, but along
the river Stiekeen. This stream risesin the
Blue Mountains opposite the head waters of
the Mackenzie, and flows in a general south
easterly direction parallel. with the coast
until it breaks through the mountains east
and a little north of Sitka. When the snows
are melting the Stickeen is navigable by
small steamboats about 125 miles from its
mouth; so that it will be posSible to sail up
the river and enjoy a full view of the gla
ciers. Their appearance is said to be mag
nificent. One fills a rocky gorge of rapid
descent, stretching far back to the peaks of
the Blue Mountains, and looks like an. enor
mous cascade. In the course of ages it has
cut its way through solid rock, and is over
hung by freshly-hroken cliffs: which attest
its power. ,Another one swecps . grandly, out
from an opening between high mountains,
and ends on the river in an irregular bluff of
ice about two miles long and 150 feet high.
Mr Blake made a particular examination of
this glacier, and found its surface broken up
into enormous blocks and ledges,
or caves
and pyramids with curved sides. These ob
structed his progress, and could be sur
mounted only by ladders or by cutting steps
in them. Deep crevasses are of frequent oc
currence, and the sun illuminates them with
the most beautiful aquamarine tints, passing
into a rich sea-blue where they are narrow
and deep. Far beneath are rushing and
roaring streams, which constantly wear
away the under surface, and empty into the
river. Mr. Blake judges from various indi
cations that the climate of the region has
been greatly ameliorated in the course of
time. This is a gratifying fact; for give it
centuries enough, and our Russian purchase
may become pleasantly habitable for human
beings. There are four large glaciers of the
kind described and some smaller ones visible
within a distance of 60 or 70 miles from the
river's mouth: Above Sitka, on the Pacific
coast, in latitude 60 degrees, where 'the
weather is colder, glaciers abound. The
shores of Icy Bay, at the foot of Mount
Elias, are lined with them. But they are
not:so accessible as the glaciers of the Stick
een, which will be regarded hereafter among
the first-class natural curiosities of the
United States, like Niagara Falls, Mammoth
Cave, and the Yosemite Valley, and will not
be forgotten by the future railroad tourists
to the. Pacific.
