A FEW ni TS FOR FARM FOLKS. !
It is saM that the finest cattle in the i
United States are found, in the south (
western counties of Virginia, the soil
of which is exceedingly rich. A crop
of blue grass springs tip as soon as the
timber is felled : nor docs it need anj- j
plowing or sowing ; the steep mount-
ain sides are covered with it wherever i
the underbrush is cleared. This crop I
renews itself. Cattle live in the fields j
durinfz the winter. The cattle get the
grass liora under the mow, nnd are al
ways in good condition.
Tup onwinnt has been tried in
I
Iawa of sowing in the fall, upon one
acre of land, two bushels of wheat
mixed with one bushel of cats. The
oats shot up rapidly-, and were of
course killed by the frost. But they
furnished a warm covering for the
earth, and when the snow fell among
the thick stalk3 and leaves they kept
it from blowing away. This covering
prevented the winter killing of the
wheat, and the rotting oat leaves an.l
stalk3 afforded a rich top-dressing for
the crop the following spring. The
result was an immense yield of wheat
while land precisely similai alongside
of it, and treated in the same manner
with the exception of omitting the
oats, was utterly worthless.
Cayenne Teiter tor Fowls. A
writer in the Country Gentleman says:
"This species of pepper is found to be
very beneficial lor fowls, if given in
moderate quantities, and, on account
of it3 purity, is to be preferred before
that kept br dealers. It is not only
a preventive of disease, but promotes ;
growth and egg production. Acting,
as a tonic on the system, it keeps the
bird in a healthy condition, without .
which there cannot reasonably be ex- ;
petted lirgc proceeds. The nroper ;
way to administer the tonic is in a li- :
piid form, and this is done through
the drink. Pepper is highly beneficial
in the months of September and Octo- ,
licr, or during moulting season, as it .
not only increases the growth of fea- '
thcrs, but gives warmth and tone to :
the blood, and, fed with good nutri- ,
iionn food, assists in keeping up the :
strength ot the bird. This is highly
necessary at this period, for it is the
nost If licatc one in the existence of
the fowl. All medicine, however, j
should be given in reasonable quanti- ;
Aie, -as ovci doing amounts to the .
.nme lhhg as underdoing. Take
about Chive pods of ripened cayenne
1 0 i per, brui-e them slightly, and pour
4)n nearly a pint of boiling water, j
This quantity will season a gallon of 1
Urink, which may be refilled daily or ,
ns the fowls consume it, and will con-
tain sullicient strength fcr a week for
a moderate sized flock, say twenty or
twenty -five birds of the small breeds. ;
Fowls consume a large quantity of !
lrink, and after being once accustomed
to it, rathe.- relish the pungent flavor. .
How to Conquer a IJai.ky Horse. !
I would prepare myself with a good ;
strap I want no whip; perhaps he i
has got a taste of that already, ami
still lie is master. Put some tine day ,
when I was at peace with myself and '
;dl aiuuud, I would hiUdi him to a ,
buuiiv, turning his head to the village
He goes half the way very well indeeil
then he bein? to consider he has gone
far enough in that direction and stops. '
I step dowi. He expects me to use
the whip. lie is mistaken. As a
criminal I treat him cn the silent sys- '.
'.cm. 1 puh him back a little cut; of
the way. I show him the strap, put
ting it up to his nose. 1 go to the oil
fdde and buckle it to his otr fore leg
close up to the breast, throwing the
other end over his shoulder. I then
raise his near fore foot and fix it with
the hoof neatly touching the belly.
This done, I say to him, "Now old
chap, j'ou stay there." 1 don't smoke,
so I take a paper from my pocket, and
finding a place where I can sit down
and he see me, I begin to read. This
is something he did not bargain for
and the novelty of standing on three
legs somewhat diverts his mind from
the cause that stopped hin. I think
rrrr"'.r.s:u?,
a wisli to gu, but this does not suit at
the time, as I have to look over "John
C'aKligatc." When the strap is taken
otr I fehow it to him, caress him a lit
tle, and we move on without irritation.
The strap will now become a part of
the harness for a month or two, .till at
last tue sight ot it will act as a talis
man. (Jir. l'urono Gl"f:
Smit in "Wheat. The black pow
der observed in grainsof wheat, oats,
barley or rye, and ears of corn, is gen
erally known as smut. Viewed under
a microscope of high power this smut
is seen to be a mass of black, round
balls. These are the seeds of a plant
or fungus which has several stages of
growth an.l finally reproduces a new
eet of sports. These seeds will float
in the atmosphere, and adhere without
being noticed to the grain. When
grains of wheat are sown with this
fundus attached the fundus strikes a
filament into the tissue of the
; ri-Lne
n I infects it as with poison
rarasile penetrates throughout the
tissues of the plant, sometimes as with
corn bursting nut upon the stock, but
generally appearing in the car. It has
been discovered that caustic allies de
stroy the substance of smut; and also
that the aj plication of sulph.Ves of
iron, copper and inr? have the same
effect : of thc-e latter the sulphate of
copper have the same dlcel ; of these
latter the sulphate of copper the
commonly known blue vitriol is the
most useful. The usual method of ap
plying tiiese remedies is to steep the
seed in a solution of the various sub
stances. The solution may le made
lis follows, and cither the one or the
other may be used as found convenient
One pound common salt in one gallon
f water One pound glaubcr salts in
one gallon of water. Four ounces
sulphate of copper in one gallon of
water. Sufficient of the solution
should be made to satuia'e the seed
or thoroughly moisten every grain.
When the seed ln steered for two
hours it is drained and spread upon a
floor and sprinkled with dry lime in
powder ; that w hich has been air-slack-cd
by exposure to the atmosphere in
a covere.; hcd until it falls into a fine
Aust is best fitted for this use. The
seed is then shovelled and stirred un
til each grain Ins been coated with
lime. In an hour or two it will be
dry and may be sown. There are at
least fifteen species of the smut fungus
known to botanists.
The eai tii is said to be flying around
HUc sun at the rate of one thousand
miles a minute, but 3-011 ain't bound to
believe it.

HISTORICAL SIN DARKEN IXJS.
J. R. Hind, writing to Xnlurf, a lead
i ir.R English publication, says :
In 530, 5fi7 and 620 we find mention of long
periods of diminished sunlight.. Sohnurrer
records that in 733, a year after the Saracens
i Tiad iteen driven ha--k beyond the Pyrenees,
; consequent on their defeat at Tours, "the
Btni darkened in an alarming manner on
I Aug. It) ; there appeared to be no eciipso by
i the moon, but rather an interrnption from
meteoric mitistance." There was an eclipse
of the snn, annular, hut nearly total, on the
morning of Anc. 14 ; it is mentioned in the
j Saxon t'hronule, which tells us, "the snn
1 disk vras like a black shield." Tho near
, coincidence of dates suggests in this case a
connection between the darknees and the
ArlinsA In 'I'll iiia..;i,a A y..
i historian, the sun lost its ordinary light for
! several months, and this is followed by the
. doubtful statement that au opening in the
' sky seemed to take plaoe, with many flashes
of lightning, and the full blaze of sunshine
; was suddenly restored. In lrtai, on Septem
i ltr 21, not 21 as given in some of the trans
! lations of Humboldt's "Cosmos." S.dinur
I rer relates that tliere was a darkening of the
bud wann lasten tnree hours, after which it
bad a peculiar color, which occasioned great
alarm. In another place we read : "Fuit
vlipsr ,S'o?i II. Knl. Oclob. fere tres hnra ;
Sol circa mrriilietn dire ni7reccbat " there
was no visible eclipse at this time, and the
i November eclipse was central onlv in the
I southern parts ( f tve earth. A century lat
er, or in June, 11511 according to Sclinurrer,
the sun was again darkened, with certain at
I tendant effects upon natnre. Hero the cause
! is easily found ; on June 23, there was a to
j tal ec'npse, in which the moon's shadow tra
I versed the continent of Europe from Hol
; land to the Crimea; the eclipse was total in
j this country betveeu the coasts of Cumber
; land and Yorkshire. Erman refers to a
sun-darkening on Feb. 12, which wis
j accompanied by meteors, and we read in the
j cometograplnes that on the 4th, or, according
l to others, on the .V.h of February in this
year, a star was seen from the third to tho
ninth hour of the day, which was oistant
from the sun "only a footand a half." Mat
thew Paris and Matthew of Westminister
term tnis star a comer, and we take it to
I have been the same which, later in the same
! month, was observed in China nnder the
t sign Pisces, and which, at one time wa
i sapposed to have l.c-en identical with the
great comet of 1;80 ; this body, however,

"the sun appeared s '.l ough suffused with
Mood, and many stars were visible at noon

From the aliove brief summary of what, have

Clieappst fSloclc of
To Rki.ii.vi: Catarrh. A writer in j
an exch;me;p gives the following eight
hints for relieving'cfitarrh :
Inhale through the nostrils a strong solu- j
tion of salt, in water. I would advise as J
strong a solution as an ounce to the pint, .
though some will tolerate more.
In this strength it is not painful, hut acta
as a tonic and astringent, relieving congss- !
tion, and preventing tho eniosmose effect I
which would accompany the use of pure wa- !
ter or weaker solutions. '
But it is a mistake to suppose that salt
water will cure all cases of catarrh.
When the condition is one of chronic con
gestion simply with acrid secretion, it may
be sufficient. ; hut. in the worse forms, where
there is a deep-seated inflammation with ul
ceration, more powerfully astringent, as well
as stimulant, and even esuarotic solutions
are requisite to effect a cure.
Inhale the smoke from pine tar. Get a
pint or more of pnre pine tar (not the oil)
from a ship chandler ; heat a poker red hot,
and stir the tar with il ; a thick smoke will
rise.
Hold your head over it. keep vour mouth
shut, and inhale throngh the nostrils ; heat '
the poker three or four times, until the room 1
is filled with smoke, shut door and win
dows, and remain in the room as long as pos
sible. It is a good plan to smoke mullein in one's
bedroom jast before retiring ; after smoking
open a window from the top ; the smoke
slowly escapes, but enough remains to be of
some beni fit.
Mullein leaves should be thoroughly dried
and then used the same as tobacco in a pipe.
The smoke should be pressed to the back
of the month and exhaled through the nose;
once or twice a week will suffice and should
be persevered in.
If properly cured there will not be an acrid
esud.ttion. A little piece of sponge id the
bowl of the pipe will prevent the juices from
passing into the mouth.
Mullein will be stronger gathered before
the frost inj ures it, but will answer even if
dug from under the snow. It will also be
found an excellent remedy for cold in the
head.
A Xkw Medical Tiikoky. A Min
nesota man writes to the Salem (Mass.)
Guzcitc as follows :
A discovery in the treatmentof diphtheria
has been made here. A young man, whose
arm had lieen amputated, was attacked with
diphtheria beforejhealing took place, ar?d in
stead of the matter incident to that disease
being deposited in the throat, the greater
portion appeared on the wounded arm, and
the diphtheria was very light and easily
managed. His doctor profited by this, and
in his next case of diphtheria blistered his
patieut's chest, and on this blistered part the
chief deposits appeared. This was also an
easy case of the disease. The theory of the
doctor is that diphtheria usually appears in
the throat because of the thinness of the lin
ing of the throat. Hence, when the blister
breaks the skin cpon any other part of the
body, the disease appears there.

This Sarsaparilla is a eomhinat ion of
vecetahle alteratives Stillingia.Man
drake,Yeliow lo k with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the
most efficacious medicine vet known
for the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are to f-kilfully
combined that the full alterative
effect of each is assured, and while
it is fo mild as to be harmless even
to children, it is still fo effectual ns
to puree out from the system those
impurities and corruptions which
develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence
which prominent physicians all over
the country- repose in it proves their
experience of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues
have accumulated, and are con
stantly being received, and as many
of these cases are publicly known,
they furnish convincing evidence of
the superiority of this Sarsaparilla
over every other alterative medicine.
So generally is its superiority to any
other medicine known that wc need
do no more than to assure the public
that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
