In Walla Walla, Wellington Terri tory, may be seen eighty milts of wheat Geld hJoi the foot hills of the Blue Mountains. It is best to wler plants in the even ing. Make a lew Roles around the plant so as to allow the water to run down to the roots. Jfany farmers do too much guessing in their business ; trust too much to luck, cbance and the moon, and do too little close figuring. Io not feed breeding sows very large ly on gram. They may be kept in giod condition, but it should be done by more bulky or partially green food. The following are said to be the symptoms of hog cholera. Drooping ears, low-hanging head, diarrhoea, vom iting, rapid breath, and an aversion to light. I'ermanent pasture lands are the main anchor of agriculture, and the farmers of this country will find this out after awhile, as they already have in Ecg land, and will commence seeding their land with permanent grasses. Vegetables and fruits, as well as the grain crops, require deep working of the soil. A moderately heavy soil that has been underdrained and subsoiled and then carefully worRed is capable of producing the heaviest crops. In these times of cheap prices and close margins, farming requires more judgment and management than almost rdj other business. A good farmer can still do well on these close margins of profit ; a poor farmer must run behind. The great profit in agriculture lies in keeping every acre actively producing. This is the way gardeners on the high priced lands near large cities make their money as .con as one crop is off they sow another, and supply the proper nourishment by high fertilizing. Clover growth is helped by lime and plaster. Large quantities of nitrogen are contained in the earth and air, and clover absorbs nitrogen more than any other plant. The plant and air work together in furnishing an exhaustless supply of food for all kinds of food plants. To destroy the cabbage worm bruise a quantity of tansy in a wooden bucket, over which pour cold water, and let stand until the water is quite bitter, and then sprinkle it over the plants, being sure to reach the worms with it. It is absolutely Decessary that the wa ter should be.quite bitter. House plants that have been planted in the border need to be carefully wiUched and supplied with water ; otherwise in a dry time they will suffer far sooner than plants with their roocs unconDned. As these make their giowlh they "a ill also need soma care in pinching and train. ng with reference to their future forms. j A correspondent of the Country itn tie man has tried 1'rof. Forbes' me'.bod of repulsing the curju'io by dusting slaked lime in fine powder repeatedly over plum trees. He reports a tree which formerly was entirely decimated now hangs full of plums, and believes if the operation is beguu eaily and oft repeated the crop can be saved. Keep a constant supply of oyster shells before the fowls, not ground into coarse piece?. They may be quickly Iounded if placed in the oven of a htove and healed. Where they cannot be con veniently jr.wured, the ground article, which is for sale by all dealers in poul try supplies, should be ued, as they as sist in providing the shell of the eggs. Dr. Arnold says : ''The best way to Temove grubs from a cow's back in spring is to enlarge the opecing made by the giub enough to admit of pulling It out and theD draw it forth with a small hook, such as might be made by bending up the point of a large pin. The grubs can be easily killed in their nest by touching eaoh one with drop of kerosene on the end of a pointed stick, but a long and tender sore will follow before the grub will rot out so as to allow the sore to heal. The Poultry Yard gives the follow ing remedy for the disease known as "bumble foot." "As soon as the swelling ripens fairly cut open the puf fy protuberance and let out the gath ered pus freely. To effect this thor oughly the incision should be made cru cially, ttus, X, and quit down to the bone or ligament beneath the skin. It is useless merely to prick the swelling It must be cut through, cleansed of the matter entirely and washed Id a mix ture of alcohol and water, equal parts, to cleanse it. If it gathers" the second time repeat the process." A correspondent calls for methods of raising colts by hand. I can give one which may suit his case and may not. Last summer I lost a maie by tetanus. bhe ltft a two months old colt. The I problem whs to raise it It would eat nothing but dry hay on which it would soon have starved, I tried to teach it to drink or suck out ot a bottle cow's milk. Had to success. Tempted it wUi green corn and with everything I could Ihiuk of, but failed. At last Ij Baw that whenever it could get into the stall with one of my horses, to which it had taken a liking, it would eat every thing the Lorse did. This was the so lution. I5y puttiDg what I warded the colt to learn to eat into the box for both the horse ami colt, I accomplished the object. That was a year ago, and the colt is strong and well. F. II. A Western Pack Train. We h id ofl.-t. hr-anl iif t ; "': fn!u.,. c-r.r Lad never avi; rt-d a ljfi- !!' until it was our jwl fovtnte i' wji.;-.? the pacU'ig aa.1 d-p-n tore of titty mules and hie- hoises with five drivers. The merchandise all having been previously collected and carefully packed, (a labor requiring many days, as every whistey barrel must be enshroud ed in burlaps, and other goods made into bales.) the rnules are led into a large, open shed, and placed opposite each oth er, nd furies T bn!??, upon which the weight of each is marked. The animals are then called out of the ranks by their respective names, and respond by taking a Btep or two forward. Leather blinders are placed over the eyes of the animal to be laden, then a saddle cloth or blan ket, then the "apparahoes" immense pannier-like arrangements, which are securely fastened on by the united efforts of two ruPii, while the mule, who is no novice in the business, resists their ef forts as much as possible by puffing him. self up, making it difficult to accomplish the operation. The smaller animals are packed Grst and with the lighter goods, two bundles of corresponding weight be ing placed in opposite panniers. Two or three men are required to lift these burdens to their positions, were they must be held until as many more strap and roe them. The mule, meantime m.ikes all the trouble he can. knowing that he is being imposed upon ; he kicks and squeals, groans and grunts, and in some instances lies down and tries to roll over, as soon as released from the hands of his tormentors, and it requires all the persuasion of kicks and blows, vigorously applied, to induce him to rise. The weights placed upon them vary from two hundred and twenty-five pounds to four hundred and eighty, the latter being the weight of two barrels of whiskey. They are a motley crew. Some have merely bags piled one upon another to an immense height ; others are almost lost to sight between two square boxes; two have stoves oil their backs, whose protruding pipes look bruised and battered, after the attempts of their carriers to roil over. Beans and sugar, kerosene and candles, tea, coffee and oysters, with everything else that is consumed in a mining camp, is placed on the backs of these animals. Words of Wisdom. Keep little annoyances out of the way. Tay as you go, and don't go till you pay. Nobody is so wise but has a little folly to spare. Keep your conduct abreast of your conscience. Hide your own troubles, but watch to help others out of theirs. A wise man skould have money in his head, but not in his heart. Common sense in an uncommon de gree is what the world calls wisdom. Long sentences In a short composition are like large rooms in a little house. Conscience is a great ledger, In which all our offences are registered. The proverb that light gains make heavy purses, is true ; for light gains come often ; great gains, now and then. The manner of a vu'gar man has free dom without eae, and the mannei of a gentleman has ease without freedom. Divine Providence holds in one hand the "sorrow" which "endureth for a night," and In the other the "joy" that "cometh in the morning." There are some people who never have a cheering word for a struggler. They make life just as hard as possible for all who are striving to do right. Teach self-denial, and make its prac tice pleasurable, and you create for the wor'd a destiny more sublime than ever issued from the brain of the wildest dreamer. A riague or Rabbits. First the white man took Ansfralia, driving out the aborigines ; and then came the rabbit and drove out the white man. It would be a pity if our colonial history had yet to he written in this way. Nevertheless it was the white man who introduced the nbbit to the Australian continent, and he is now having a hard fight to hold his own with it. Premiums are in vain offered by the governments for the invention of a rabbit destroyer; a committee of in quiry is at present inquiring into the devastations by rabbits; In Victoria there is a rabbit department. The very causes that have made the colonies glow grain so wonderfully under the care of the settler are responsible for his greatest enemies, the hordes of rab bits. It is the country that "agrees with them so." By-and by some man of science may come to the colonists' assistance. In the meant;me they should take comfort in the survey of affairs In Brazil. There the field mice are like the sands on the seashore ; it being calculated that a single pair may increase to twenty-three thousand in a year. St. James Gazette. The Buffalo and the Indian. Whatever may be said against buffalo destroyers of the far west. the the meat killers, the tongue hunters and the rooe seekers, they have added no small item to the settlement of the Indisn question on the plains. The winter of 2 aw their deadliest work, and over a quarter of a million of robes were shipped from the 'Yellowstone valley, holding now about the same number of cattle. The true plains buffalo is now practically annihilated in the United States, there no doubt being droves of them on the Canadian rivers further north, but in this district even they are rapidly disappearing under the rain rf bullets that has been poured upon them ur inn iaai ten years, mere is still left a species called the wood, or timbei, or mountain buffalo, that concregst s in very amsll herds, and that occupies the district of the Big norn and the Wind Hlver mountains. They are also found In thn Yellowstona National Park, and will no doubt remain undisturbed there for years to come. IlALr a century ago in Turkey it was considered a shame for a woman x read.

DEALERS. U i(teLOtfa.l8a3L j Banana Farms In Costa Rica. " The cultivation of bananas In Costa s x 3r-tr.-i pT' on bf i i i Ue lari'l alofpT tbe 1 ut- ,-i ini nnda, one mile wide, is taken up by i La tiau.it a farms, a majority of which are owned by citizens of the Uni ted Stales. Each farm is one mile square, the latnl having been purchased for $10 a manzana abomt on acre and a half of our land rceasuiement. There are now about 150 square miles under profitable cultivation. It is only necessary to cultivate the banana in Costa Jiica, to cut down the forest, and then the land is ready to re ceive the seed. The plow and the harrow are unknown. The trees are allowed to lay where they fall. What is called the banana sucker, a bulb resembling an onion, is planted about eighteen inches deep, and from fifteen to eighteen feet apart, in among the fallen trees. At tbe expiration of nine months the banana plant has reached a height of fif teen feet, and bears one bunch of fruit. Fifteen or twenty of these plants or trees in various stages of development are to be seen at once sprouting from the same "ducker," bearing fruit successively the year around from seveE to hen years from the first planting. Along the river banks, where the soil is renewed, they bear twenty years from the time of first planting. When the bananas are ready to cut. a farmer who cultivates a mile square ot land, will take about forty men, five of whom are regular cut ters, and the others convey the bunches out in mule or ox carts as fast as they are cut. In a day and a half the crop is harvested. The laborers ara all Jamaica negroes and na tives, who receive f 1.25 per day for their work. The laborers are almost all Eng lish subjects, and, like the negro of tbe southern states, they always have com plaints to make. They call themselves "English objects," and if they imagine themselves imposed upon they threaten to "go an' tell Mrs. Qneen, an' the sen' her gunboat" alluding to Quen Victo ria, whom they look upon as the most 1-owerful person in the world. When a ship flying the English flag comes into t! e harbor, they say, "Dat Mrs. Queen's s lip ; she go aD' tell somefin' to English councilman ; dat's whar Mrs. Queen sends flem fur." They work hard all day, drink rum and dance nearly all night, and are ready for work early in tbe morning as bright and apparently as well rested as if they had slept all night. After tne bananas are loaded on the train they are taken to Port Limon, placed on a vessel and brought to New York. The steamer Foxhall, named after the American bors, but flying the English flag, and owned by Mr. Keith of Biooklyn, carries 12,000 bunches of the fruit to New Orleans every fortnight 5o. an along the line of the road the succulent banana is making the fortune of those who had the courai:" to tempt the climate. The snakes make a stranger feel rath er uncomfortable. They have a variety of them, and when the traveler reflects that the bite of almost every species is fa'al, he is quite l;kely to keep a wary eye on his surroundings. Quite a num ber of New York people expect to go to OVvTa Rica during the coming fall. JV V. Star. Power of Fascination In Snakes. Rome animals are held in universal dread by others, and not the least terrib'e is the effect produced by the rattlesnake. Mr. Tennant says that this snake will frequently lie at the bottom of a tree on which a pquirrel is seated. He Cxes his eyes on the animal, and from that mo ment it cannot escape ; it liegine a dole ful oafciy, which is so well known that a passer-by, on hearing it, immediately knows that a snake is present. The sqnirrel runs up the tree a little way, comes down again, then goes up, and afterwards comes still lower. The snake continues at the bottom of the tree, with his eyes fixed on thr. squirrel, and his attention is so entirely taken up, that a person accidentally approaching may make considerable noise, without the snake so much as turning about. The squirrel comes lower, and at last leaps down to the snake, whose mouth ia al ready disterded for its reception, LeYaillant confirms this fascinatirg terror by a scene which be witnessed. lie saw on the branch of a tree a species of shrike, trembling as if in convulsions, and at the distance of nearly four feet, on another branch, a large species of snake, that was lying with outstretched neck and Gery eyes, gazing steadily at the poor bird. The agony of the bird was so great that it was deprived of the power of moving away, and when one of the party killed the snake, the bird was found dead upon the spot and that en tirely from fear for, on examination, it appeared not to have received the least wound. The same traveller adds that a short time afterwards he observed a small mouse in similar agonizing convul sions, abont two yards from a Bnake, whose eyes were fixed intently on It, and on frightening away the reptiJe, and taking up the mouse, it expired in his hand. Don't. Don't snub a boy because be wears shabby clothes. When Edison, the in ventor of the telephone, flret entered Boston, he wore a pair of yellow linen breeches in the depth of winter. Don't snob a boy because bis home is plain and unpretending. Abraham Lin coln's early borne was a log cabin. Don't snob a boy because of the igno rance of his parents. Shakespeare, the world's poet, was tbe son of a man who was onable to write his own name. Don't snnb a boy because he chooses a hnmble trade. The author of Tilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan, was a tinker. Don't snub a boy because of physical disability. Milton was blind. Don't snub a boy because of dullness in his lessons. Hogarth, the celebrated painter and engraver, was a stupid boy at Lis books. Don't snub a boy because he stutters. Demosthenes, tbe great Grecian orator, overcame a harsh and stammering voice. Don't snub any one. Not alone because some day they may far outstrip you in the race of life, but because it is neither kind nor right, nor Christian. The greatest fault is being conscious of none. 9 TIMES OUT OF IO Dr. Thomas' Eclectric OH cinrs Rheumatism and Neuralgia. 99 TIMES OUT OF 100 Dr. Thomas' Eclcctric Oil CURES A Cold or a Hoarseness. 19 TIMES OUT OF 20 Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil Ct'RES Hith-ra and Diphtheria. 49 TIMES OUT OF 50 Dr. Thorra8 Eclectric Oil CI RES Oeup and ABsctiona of the Throat.
