r>op a> WP find Them. That the dog is a noble and saga clous animal and capable of being edu. cated so as to be very useful for some purposes will be admitted by all per sons. Observers generally unite in the opinion that the dog possesses a higher degiee of intelligence than any other animal besides man.Some go so far as to accord him an additional sense to those possessed by man. One may doubt or even repudiate half the dog storiee published, and still be forced to believe that dogs reason. No domestic animal can be taught to perform so many odices as the dog. None is capa ble of being changed to any equal ex tent by judicious crossing. None fur uislies as agreeable companionship to man. None displays as much emotion, feeling, gratitude, and tenderness as the dog. None occupies so prominent a place in the literature of all modern uations. But in spite of all these things the dogs that found in the country are nuisances that should be abated in the shortest time possible. They interfere with the acknowledged rights of all men to "life, liberty, and pursuit of liapiness." They render night hideous by their noise. They obstruct travel by frightening horses, drivers, and persons who choose or are obliged to walk. They destroy the happiuess of children who atteud schooler church. They harbor dea J . dig up dower beds, devour little birds, frighten pets, kill sheep, worry cows, and spread the hydrophobia. They have no respect for life or property, and no regard for any of the amenities of society or any of the institutions ol civilization . They are the Ishmaelites of nhe entire brute creation whether wild or deuiesticatcd. Much of the comfort that rightly and naturally be longs to eountry life is destroyed by dogs, while nearly every branch of farming is injured by them. Horses have to be t rained to go past the houses where certain dogs are kept, in the same manner- they do when they are obliged to go in the vicinity of locomo tive or stationary steam engines. Dogs have destroyed the sheep Industry in a large number of countries in every state of the union, and what is worse they keep It destroyed. They have also sadly interfered with the dairy in terest by worrying cows, killing calves, and frightening teams taking milk to lactories. In some sections they have reuderd poultry keeping uusafe and have almost entirely exterminated some of the most beautiful and useful wild birds. Without birds every Held, orchard, and garden is full of insects injurious to vegetation. Dogs, dogs as we find them in most country places, add nothing to the wealth or prosperity or comfort of the community, but do much to detract from them all. They do infinitely more damage than wild beasts because their status is not clear ly defined. A man may kill any wild beast with impunity. In truth he is otten encouraged to take pains to do so> on account of bounties offered to the state or county. If he kills a dog how ever,that is vastly more dangerous than a wolf,he is liable to have his stock kil led or his buildings burned in conse quence of his ridding the neighborhood of a constant source of terror. The dog question needs to be discussed by tarmers and all persons living in the country. It also requires the attention of legislatures and "all other in author ity." Dogs as we find them in the eouutry belong to a species of over grown vermin tiiat should be destroy ed. A Convivial Horse. A Dubuque gentleman took a fancy to a horse a few days ago, and after some bantering succeeded in buying the animal. It was a saddle horse —a neat, trim one, thought to be just the thing. The purchaser started out to try the qualities ot his new purchase, and came home convinced that the horse knew far more than he gave him credit for on short acquaintance. At the first saloon he overtook on the road the horse wheeled and came to a halt. lli 9 rider urged him quietly, then a little more so, to proceed, bnt the animal would not. After coaxing him for some time in short sentences the saloon keep er came out and observed. "You can't get that horse away until you let him see you take a glass of beer." As a final resort the beer was taken, when the horse went ofl as good naturedly as it he had been wound up for an eight day journey. Just about the time the rider got over wondering at the odd Ireak of the horse another saloon was reached. The horse's ears went for ward, he hastened his pace, and in a brief time was at the door performing a counterpart of his recent exploit. It was :ound necessary to go through the beer performance again, with the same satisfactory and surprising result* This was repeated at every saloon on the road out, seven miles in the country and return. When the new owner of the horse got back to the city he called on the former owner of the horse to make some inquiry about the matter. He felt happy when told that he 'need not drink the beer if he didn't want to; all he need to do was to go through the motions and the horse would be per lectly satisfied." The South African Diamond Fields. The diamonds of South Africa are found over many hundred square miles of territory, They are mostly imbedded in ferruginous gravel, and are found at depths varying from two to twenty feet below the surlace, the usual depth be ing from two to six feet. In working the mines a claim or piece of ground thirty feet square is occupied by two diggers, assisted by their black ser vauts. They remove the loose blocks of stone, take up the gravel, sift it thoroughly, either in a dry gtate or with abundance of water, in a sieve rocked by a cradle. When the pebbles have thus been separated from the sand, they are cleaned and placed upon the sorting table, to be careiully examined for the diamonds that may be among tl e u. AGRICULTURE. Do NOT NEGLECT YOUR WELLS.— Friend, you have a mud hole at your well? Go for it at once. Do not eat or eat or sleep till it ia removed. Take a iioe and drag out the mud and 111 to, and then fill the hole with dry soil or sand. After doing this, shut out the pigs and poultry from the well, and keep them out. if the curb is broken or rotted down, ; replace with a new one. After doing this, scrape away the grass aud surface soil around the well, and re place with a layer of sand and gravel. If, from the character of the land, your well ever fills with water, cut a ditch six feet deep all around it, at the dis tance of a few yards, and have an out let from this to lake oil the water. The water in the well will not, after this, rise higher than the bottom of the ditch. If your water is muddy and impure, throw in a peck of lime to purify it. If animalcule appear in the wat°r, throw in a half gallon of salt to make them settle to the bottom. Aud It Is worth while to take some pains to fix up some convenience at your well. A bench to set the bucket 011 while it is being filled aud a handy and easy way to get the water, and a smooth, ury path from the well to the kitehen —these things will make so much easier the task of your wives aud daughters. Farmers, do not neglect your well a single day longer, but see that all about them is neat and tidy, and determine to keep it so. PRODUCTION AND KKKI'INO OF EGGS — Oftentimes it is a mailer of import tauce to Keep eggs tor a time. When prices rule low, they may be preserved in comparative freshness lor several weeks, even iu July and August, it care bo taken to place them on end as soon as brought In from the nest. One not accustomed to handling and care of eggs can form 110 idea of the shortness 01 time required lor the yolk of an egg to settle on one side, where it adheres to tlie.shell aud quickly spoils in warm weather. Always place the egg 011 the big end. 1 have tried both ends, and have decided in favor of the former position. Egg 9 should be gathered from the nest every day, and where there are many hens kept, twice a day. it matters not for what purpose we de sire eggs, the hens that produce them should always be young and healthy. Eggs that are to be kept lor any length ot time should always be those iruui young hens, or if two years old, only from those in perfect health. It this rule is closely observed by the breeders who export eggs for hatching, trom one locality to another, tluore will be better satisfaction given. It is ot much importance that the eggs have perfect Shells, and a hen not in per tect health mayJ drop her eggs reg ularly, yet the shells may possess im perfections that render them unfit either lor keeping or hatching. CHICKEN LICK. — Vermin is the pest of poultry, and when chicken houses get thoroughly infested, it Is not an easy matter to clear them. If the house is washed with a hot lime wash, and the roosts are rubbed with a mixture ot kerosene oil and lard, the lice will be made uncomfortable, and it this treat ment is repeated a few times, the house and also the fowls will be quite free lrom vermin. If the house is, as all poultry houses should be, detached from barna and other buildings, it may be fumigated. Shut it up tight and close every opening. Then place a pan of live coals on the ground (or if must be a wooden lloor, put dowu a few shovelfuls ot earth, or coal ashes, to hold the pan). Throw 011 a handtul of brimstone, and get out quickly, clo sing the door tightly. If me work has beeu done thoroughly, no lice can be lound at the end 01 a few hours. The white-washing, etc., may be then done. How MUCH WILL KEEP A HORSE. —A horse weighing from ten to twelve hun dred pounds will eat about six tons ot hay, or its equivalent, in a year. And we suppose the real point to get at is, whether one can keep his horses cheap er on some other produce than hay. This is an exceedingly difficult question to answer—it depends so much on cir cumstances. We shall not attempt to answer it tally at this time, but will merely say that, in our opinion, three and a-half tons of corn would keep a horse a year in iully as good condition as six tons ot hay. We may estimate also, that it will take three and a-half tons of oats to keep a hei sea year. A bushel of oats weighs thirty-two pounds so that it will take over one hundred and fifty-five bushels and three and a haif tons of straw to keep a horse a year. It would take about-two acres of good land to produce this amount. SANITARY I'norfcßTiES OK TREES.— Mr. KingzeM finds that properties of the euealj ptus, are not owing to its drainage powers, but to the oil which is evaporated from its leaves. The oil is practically identical with the oil of turpentine derived from pine-trees, and with most of the so called essential oils or perfumes. All these oils, when subjected to the action of atmospheric oxygen, produce perox ide of hydrogen and a number of cam phoraceous substances having marked antiseptic characteristics. W hat is true of the eucalyptus is true also of the pine, an immensely larger scale, for pine lor e-ts are distributed freely over both Hemispheres, and the oil of turpentine, which is a natural product of the pine, undergoes the same chemical changes in the atmosphere as tl e oil of the eu calyptus. ONE spooniui ot c.mase-powdered saltpetre to a pail of water will destroy potato bugs, squash bugs and other in sects. For roses it is unsurpassed. For maggots that work at the roots ot squash vines, pour about a pint of the liquid at the root of each vine as soon as the pests indicate themselves. —To destroy plantains, dandelions, or other weeds on the lawn, drop care fully a single drop of sulphuric acil, v oil of vitriol) into the centre of the plant.

REEVING MEAT IN HOT WRATH Kit. — Great is the convenience ot a good re frigerator! But many of us who live in Lite country have to get along with out such a convenience. Farmers' families who often depend upon tiie butcher's meat cart lor supplies of fresh meat, are annoyed by the bother and waste that conies of getting more beef or mutton than they can conven iently use up before It becomes tainted. The most foolish waste is to eat more of it than you need, with the idea of "saving it"; the doctor's bill that may result from overloading the digestive organs, is not so good a show ot econo my as the lreBh eggs you might coax from the hens by feeding them any excess of meat. The meat should first be wiped and dry. Some sprinkle it in all its parts with salt. Others use black pepper plentifully, washing and wiping it well betore using it, to re move the pepper and salt, and then hang It in the coolest place possible— some 111 a well, others, in a cellar. Per haps the best precaution is to w rap it in a dry cloth and cover it with char coal dust.

This sub stance renders the hair too dry, and deprives it of its moist coloring mat ter, impairs at once its strength ani beauty. After washing, the hair should be immediately and thoroughly dried, and when the towel has ceased to imbibe moisture, brushed until its lightness and e a-ticity are lully re stored ; and in dressing it, a little mar row pomatum, bear's grease, or I rag rant oil should be used. The small toothed ivory comb is particularly in jurious, as besides its irritating effect on the skin, it has a tendency to split and crush the hair as it passes through it.

WELLS, HICHAItDSON A CO., Prop's, Rarllngton, Vt The remedial management of those diseases peculiar to women has afforded a large experience at the World's Dispensary and Invalids' Hotel, in atfaptiug remedies for their cure. Many thousands ol cases have annually been treated. Ir. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the result of this extended exjHWlence, and has become justly celebrated for its many and remarkable cures of all those chronic dis eases and WEAKNESSES PECULIAR TO FEMALES. Parorlte Prescription Is a powerful Restorative Tonic, to the entire system. It is a nervine of un surpassed efficacy, and while it quiets nervous irritation, it strengthen the enfeebled nervous system, thereby restoring it to healthful vigor. The following diseases are among those in which the Favorite Prescription lias worked cures as if by magic, and with a certainty never la-fore attained, viz: Leueor rha-a; exceaalve flowing; painful menstruation; unnatural rapprrwloiw) weak back; prolapsus, or falling of the uterus; untevendon; retroversion; keurlng-down sensation; ebroale congestion. Inflam mation, and ulceration; Internal bent; nervous depression! nervous and siek headache; debility! and barrenness, or sterility, when not caused by stricture of the neck ot' the womb. Wtieu the latter condition exists, we can, by other means, readily remove the Impediment to tbc bearing of offspring (see Invalids' i*ulde Book, sent for one stamp, or tile Medical Adviser). Favorite Prescription Is sold under a positive guurnntee. For conditions, see Wrapper around bottle. •DO LIKEWISE."—Mrs. E. F. Morgan, of New C'astlc, Lincoln Co., Maine, says. " Five years ago 1 was a dreadful sullerer from uterine troubles. Having exhausted the skill of three physicians, I was completely discouraged, and so weak 1 could with difficulty cross the room alone. I began taking your 'Favorite Prescription' and using the local trcattucHt recommended in your 4 Common Sense Medical Adviser.' 1 commenced to Improve at once. In three months 1 was perfectly curat, and have had no trouble since. I wrote a letter to inv family paper, briefly mentioning how my health had been restored, and offering to send the full particulars to any one writing me for them and enclosing a stamped envelope for reply. I have received over four hundred letters. In reply, I have descrlled my case and the treatment used, and earnestly advised them to 'do likewise.' From a great many 1 have received second letters of thanks, stating that they had commenced the us© of Favorite Prescrip tion, sent for lite 'Medical Adviser,' and applied the local treatment so fully apd plainly' l'd down therein, and were much !tetter Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription Is sold by till druggists. #EVEKY INVALID LADY should read "The People's Common Sense Mtullcal Adviser," In which tger tlft v pages are devoted to the consideration of those diseases peculiar to Wonten.
