HOW TO I'SK SALT. One of the Very Ha*st Things I'seal on the Farm When Properly Applied. It should not be used on cold, heavy or moist soils, and if any one does, he will be disappointed in the result, as its tendency is to keep the ground cool and moist. It will do such soil more harm than good. It should not be cast upon very young and tender plants of any kind, as it will be very sure to kill them. Judgment should be employed in using so strong and active an agent, but I think, indeed I know, that some men do not use any. I had a triend who heard me in a lecture recommend salt on onion beds, when I strictly urged that it should he -dragged or worked in before tbe seed was sown; but forgetting what I said, or thinking it would make no difference, he did not salt until the onions were about two inches higb, and it killed them all; which he laid to me, and meant to give me a fearful scolding, but sowing an other root crop that turned out splen didly, he gave up the scolding. Had he waited until the tops]\verc as big as a large pipe-stem, he might have cov ered the ground an inch deep, and Ms onions would have done finely. Onions should be sown on the same ground year after year, as they con tinue to improve. There are yards a hundred years old, and their yield would astonish the common grower. The tops when cut off should be scat- Terms, SI.OO per Year, in Advance. tered over the ground (do [not leave them in lumps), as they make the best food for the growing onions; then sow salt, and then putjon a coat of manure. 1 do not think salt is much of a fer tilizer in itself, though plants take it up, as you can tell by tasting and by the stiffening and glazing of straw of a plant grown in salted ground. I think it acts upon and assimilates the gross matter iu the soil so as to make it available food. I learned the use of salt from the late (Jeneral Wad worth, who told tne he sowed from seventy-five to one hundred barrels on his home farm every iall, at the rate of two to the acre. I followed his rule, but sowed iu the spring, as I plowed then, and every spring, put two barrels to the acre on all my plow ed ground ns long as I kept it up usually four years—and dragged it in. Having a hillside pasture which could not be easily plowed I ibougbt I would try salt, which I did on, one half of it, casting on also what little wood-ashes I had, and the result was surprising, it killed all the*weeds but the thistles, and caused a rapid and great growth of grass, and I doubt if one of my horses, cattle or sbeep went on the unsulted part to feed during the whole season. The next season I sowed the other part in the same way, and so on for two or three years, until thoroughly redeemed. Wheat, grass, onions, potatoes and most root crops will stand a ton and a half to the acre, though it is not necessary to use this quantity, as they will thrive well with jess. In conclusion let me say my long experience iu its use has fastened the conviction in my mind, whatever the rest of the world may say, that used it under proper conditions, in a proper way, and for certain purposes and ends, there is nothing equal to it, and that it is one of the very best things used on the farm.— C. E. Ifewex, in Country Gentleman. The INi-.itinn Taken I>uriiig Sleep. A very larg number ol adults form the habit of sleeping in one particular position, such NS lying upon their right or left side. A smaller number sleep upon the back. Some persons sleep with the head greatly extended; more often it is flexed considerably up on the trunk Many must have the head greatly elevated; others can only sleep with the head very low. Some ob servation made by Dr. OI Nosovitcb ( Wratseh) upon 235 soldiers showed that 375 per cent slept upon the right side, 23 per cent on the left, aud 6 5 per cent on the back It has yet to be determined wether any particular harm can come from sleeping in a certain position which the indivual unconsciously assumes. A popular belief exists to the effect that the liver, being a heavy organ, tends to press the abdominal viscera when a person lies on the left side. At any rate more persons, sleep on the right side than on the left, as an experience and Nosovittch's statistics show. The author in question believes, also that the posture in sleep influences the ex tension of a bronchitis. He found, for example, that in 235 cases referred to, all of whom had this disorder, in 97 it was left-sided, in 72 right-sided, and iu GO on both sides. He thinks that the preponderance of the bronchitis on the left side was due to the tact that there was a greater expansion of this side during sleep, and, consequently, a greater ingress of cold air or of the morbific particles causing the disease. Some writers have thought that the position in sleeping has an influence upon the fieccs through the colon, the position on the right side being espec ially unfavorable to emptying the co lon. Kepose on the left side, on the other hand, favors the gravitation of faeces from the traverse ipto the de scending colon, aud is therefore to be preferred by those suffering from hab itual constipation(J. S. Jewell). A recent writer has argued strongly for that view that the head should be lower than the feet during sleep, and be claims that more perfect health and greater longevity will result from such approximatetopsy-turviness. The con trary position; with the bead and trunk considerably raised, sometimes relieves cramps in the legs. It is well known that some chronic nervous af fectious, more particularly nocturnol epilepsy and some forms of insomnia, are sometimes benefited by sleeping in a partially eroct posture. It appears, that the posture during sleep is a matter deserving some atten tion from physicians, and that some actual therapeutic result may be ob tained by looking after its details.— Med. Record.
