THK ( I'l.TL'KK OF VXRP, The following jmicle on the subject of carp culture we take from the West moreland Dtmocrut. As a number of out farmers have built, ponds an J many nur- iniKinl .m i let I tig- during Hie curuiug suurn r, .p r.itvp tin doubt it will prove '.merest Ing : "In ninny sections o Westmoreland cout ty there are pTPona who very rarely taste fresh fish. Tei:insH of their re m'itr-rjes from markets, ar;d because of . the further f;u"f, wi'h the excep'ion of the i idge country, all tLe etreaais have lC"ti:e depopulated through the wash ; of th no'-i' miDes. vrry large majority '. have come to look upoa a fresh fish as a loiitry. Aud yet it is p wsible for almos: j every farmer to h .ve nbundance of fresh t fish at bis door With little more trouble j and not as much expense as the poultry j in his barn-yard. This result can be j attained in the culture of the German j carp. Ten yers ago tfce U. S. Fish j Commission had a nuiubei of these food ; fish Imported for experiment in this country. It has since been found that they can be propagated in all parts of the United States as successfully as in j Europe Tnere are at present probably i over 101) carp ponds in different parts of j this county. From those established two or three years ago the owners are now reaping a rich rewaid. The rapid growth and wonderful manner in which these iih multiply, as demonstrated in this Vieility, has eeu noted at din Tent times in the coiumas of the Democrat. There is no good reason w by a! most every one of the 5, iOO iartns in Westmoreland should not have its carp pond. In the hope still further awakenirg interest on the subject we offt-r soui" facts and hints on carp -u!tui e : 1. i. lis may lie made of almost any si.-. O ie-(!i.irter of an acre, it his been estimated, stocked with yearling, will iToduoe about 2,.j'j( p unds of caip fcr u-ie annually. A location for th" pond should be fuund in the vicinity of a small stream of unpolluted water or spring. Swamp land can sometime te ntiliz-d. The pcud should not be built by directly damning the s'renrn. L'cat the i''tid 01. the side of the stieam, and conduct the water thither by such arrai g-ment as will enable one tosupp'y the pond with a large or small How as rjoav b deemed necessary. The dam Should be located at a sufficient d's'auce above :he pond to allow of a fall great enough for an -easy descent of the water to the pond. It the bottom is alluvia' jt should be covered with clay or heavy loam before the water is turned in. i?ut, in at te,it six inches of clay and puddle or tamp well Ttieemtidnkm- nrs should be solidly built an 1 considerably w ider at the bottom th m at the top. To make the f i'id proof against botti muskrat3 and Tiy fih, th middle of theem bankTi'iT shou'l be fil'eil with sma'l stou. an 1 the interstices between the latter with Bind or fine gravel. If the Blone filling is made a foot or two lower than 'heembankment, it is a'l the better. A ke'tln or pool shou'd b located near the breast of the pond, where the drain pipe for emptying is placed. The ket tle soould be a foot or 18 inches deeper than the other part of the pond, and be connected wit h the farthest part of the pond bv a ditch about one foJt deep and three feet wide. Small side ditches should also be dug from the edges of the !rnd to this main, centra! ditch, so that when it is d sired to drain the pond ail the fish and water may be drawn into the kettle. The pond should be graded from the outer edges toward the kettle, commonly with a depth of water ." or 0 ir.cls, and gradually in creasing urtil the k?tt!e is reached. The overflow p'pe should be so arranged that the water in the kettle shall not be less than 5 feet. This is necessary as the fish usually retire there and remain (luring the co'd weather. When the Bun shinps and the temperature of the water is raised they again venture into the shallow. The pond should be located so as to have as much exposure to the sun as possible so that the water may be kept warm. If the supply is from ft Bpttnjr, tne water should be re- quired to fl iw through an open broad channel, that, the chilliness may be re duced before it enters the pond. When the nond is froz-n over in the winter time, holes should be cut in the ice fit intervals thai the Gsh may have air. Care must be taken that frngs, snakes. rauskrata, orothT fish do not find their way into the pand. Th flsh spawn in their second year. It is said a female carp, weigh'ng 4 or 5 pounds, contains from -ioo.ooo t j 500. OOOeptr. Aquatic plants are eererally placed in ponds on wh'ch the epawn may be deposited. It is found, however, ; that a Ptill better plan is to place some brush in theedgc-snf tfce pond. After' the ?p;iwn lias been dpisited thereon ' the brush should be removed toaseroud pond, where the young: tQ3y hatch out. j The larger carp cpnsume the jp?.wn. The carp is shy and curtnluff. He does not delight in expsinir himself to the j genera! paze. (.'are mnt consequently be takn that the pond does not become over-stocked. Draw off the pond oc- j casiona'Iy that a knowledge of its con- i diticn may be ascertained and the drains leading to the kettle cleared of any obstructions. I eed the fish often' and they will fatten and thrive. The? will eat with a relish the refuse from j the table, whether it be bits of meat, tread or vegetables. Cut the food into ; Bmall pieces and distribute near the ' bank. An occasional glimpse of the Csh can be obtained when they are searching for the foo'J. In the winter time tbey require little or no food. Fish spawnsd in April will attain a length of f inches by autumn. In two years. under ravorable conditions, they have ; been known to reach a weight of from : 4 to C pounds and a length of from 1G to i 20 inches. ; With a plow, scoop and shovel a pond j can readily be constructed. Fish for ' etocking the pond can be procured from i the S-.ate Commission without cost, or I from some of the successful earn cul- turists Hi t he county at a SOI ill expense. It would likewise le advisable for per sons before beginning the construction of ponds and culture of fish to visit some of tbe places where the propaga tion has teen in progress for several years. Such ponds cn now be seen in almost every part of Westmoreland. Subscribe for the Freeman. K A S K I N E THE NEW QUININE.

In a sou the rn paper the conversation between General Hardiifc and General Andrew Jackson, relative to Jackson "a duel with Dickinson is given : "In conversation with General Jack son one day I said : 'General is a brave man ever frightened ?' I don't know that I am competent to answer tbat question,' said he. I re plied : Tb world accords you asmuch bravery as Is possessed by any man.' " 'If that be so, sir,' said the General I would say 1 have been asbadiy fright ened as b gentleman ought to be.' ' I said, I presume that it was in some of your Ind'.an fights V" "'No.' said he, 'it was when I went on the fie'd with Dickinson. I knew him to be a cool, brave, determined man. and the best shot I ever saw, and I never expected to 'eave the field alive. I owe mi life to the fashion of the day the fml breated coat. This aud the peculiar conformation of my much-sunken chest were all that saved me. Dick inson's bullet struck what appeared to be the renter of my body under the right arm, and tha ball grazed my breastbone, 1 had gone upon the field determined not to fire at Dickinson, but to discharge my pisrol in the air, having no ground to quarrel with and not wishing to harm a hair of his hesd. My quarrel was with his father-in-law, Ervin ; but when I felt myself shot, under the im pression that I had received a mortal wound, and smarting under the belief and the physical pain, I fired the fatal hot, and no act of my life have I ever regretted so much." " 'Untfer the conditiona of the meet ing we had a right to reserve the fire, because I knew that Dickinson could shoot so much more quickly than I could. It has been asserted in the public prin's said Old Hickory. 'that I advanced on Dickinson to deliver my shot and that tin gave back, both of which statements are false, sir. I stood in my place when I fired and Dickinsor remained in his r.Aiiitriiiii i-n tr nh.-tt lilrA a f . " r 1 hruva man ' hs he was."' Genera! Harding said at this same interview, which was the last he ever had with General Jsckson, the latter said to him : "The world is greatlv mistaken about my having an ungovernable temper. I ,,. ver gave an exhibition of temper wi'houtmy judgement approved it, I s metimes found It necessary even to prevent the shedding of blood.' " A Dog' iSagaeity. ' At Ceriano in Italy during the recent earthquake, a poor fellow who lived by I hawking milk was buried under the ! ruins of his cottage a little way out of I t.iwn. His large dog, which used to ; drag the milk cart up the mountain roads, smelt out his master, and began i t ) scrach away the rubbish until he laid ' ?! 's master's head bare, which was cov red with wounds. Then the dog began I ' o lick the wounds ; but finding that the j nieeding continued, and comprehending j that he could not dig further, he ran off i nd seized by the coat the first Individ i nal he met, who, thinking the dog was j mad, got loose and ran away. But a ! second person, guessing what the ani ' mal wanted, followed him, and conse ! qtiently the poor milkman was released , ;rom his dangerous position. The Minister Genala paid him a visit and found him with his head bound up un I dr a tent, with the faithful dog lying 1 ' "side him. Anthracite Coal. Anthracite was discovered in Penn- i slvana in 1790, by XichoJas Allen. ' Tli is Allan, according to the stories j and traditions that have been handed j d ;wn about him must have been a kind j ft American Rip Van Winkle. lie had come down from the Lake Champlain lumber region and opened an inn on the I , summit of the Broad Mountain. For a ! i lime he led a wandeiing existenoe, hunt- ' I irg fishiDg and lumbering, while his : I wife attended. to thirsty travelers. In ! j one of his bunt ing excursions he camped ' ( out at the foot of the Broad Mountain, j j at spot where a coal vein cropped out, i ; mid upon lighting a fire, was astonish- J ' at the intense beat it threw off. He also 1 s iw that some of the black stone had become red hot. He dug some of it, and ca-ried it home, when his wife, more . practical than himself, pronounce! it j coal. They saw coal crop out in abun Jance, and visions of fortunes that might be realized ont of it flashed through their m'ndg simultaneously. So, disposing of their effects, thev loaded two large covrrea wagons with the coal, and set J ou" for 1'hiladelphia, with the intention of marketing it there and discovering j i s true value. They drove along the ' banks of the Schuylkill, sleeping in the ' open air at night. At Pottstown three of their borses died, and the coal was dumped into the river. "Wearied and disheartened, the pair returned to the i old place at the summit of the moun ; tain, and shortly afterward Allen laid I bis faithful wife to rest over the coal i vein that proved their ruin, and turn ! ed his face toward the West, where, i after an uneventful career, he enlisted i for the campaign under Harrison, and ' fell at Tippecanoe. Prof. J. C. Arthur slated at tbe last t meeting of the American Pomological ; Society, that to test the contagious ! character of pear blight he drew a knife j through diseased branches, and then I cut oft healthy limbs of differnt sizes , with the knife. In no case did he com- muncate tne disease except on a very 1 tender twig. He drew his knife through ; aiseasec pears, and cut off limbs with ' the Bame results. It is. therefore, not necessary to disinfect the knife. lie cuts a foot below the lowest point wherJ disease appears. Our rule has been, when practicable, to cut two or three feet below. Frof Arthur, in answer to a question, said he did not see how anj wasting with lime and sulphur could have any effect on the blight, as applied outside it could not reach the bacteria within. We have seen bad cases of pear blight on trees which had been pre viously well washed all over with lime and sulphur. "On dear," exclaimed Fenderson, "I wish I knew something about his tory I" 'Very commendable aspira tions," replied Fogg ; "but why do you particularire history, Tendy ?" HXABTLSSS CHTJXLTT it ( to delude a poor sufferer into tho belief that soma worthless liniment will cure rheu matism and neuralgia. Honesty is the best policy in the manufacture of proprietary ar tides as in all other matters, and the fact that the proprietors of Athlophoros have never claimed for it even all its merit would war rant has not a little to do with iu wonderful popularity, and the thousands of grateful testimonials received by them show that their policy has been wise as well as right. Kxperience has amply demonstrated that mere outward applications are worth ies'). The disease has its seat in the blood, and any remedy to be successful must deal with the obstructive acid which poisons and in (lames it. Athlophoros acts on the blood, muscles and joints directly. It takes the poison out of the blood and carries it out of the system ; it invigorates the action of the mnscles and limbers the stirmess of the joints. It reaches the liver and kidneys, cleansing them from irritatinsf substances, and, if followed up afier the rheumatic conditions cease, it will restore these organs to regularity and health. West Chazy. N. Y., Aug. 19, 1886. Yours of An trust 14th, is at hand, and in reply would say that Athlophoroa proved the most effectual remedy for neu ralgia in the case of my son that I ever tried. After using half a bottle he was not troubled any more for six months. Henry Harris. Mt. Pleasant, Pa., Aug. 10, 1836. I am thankful that I tried Athlophoros. I had rheumatism seven years, part of the time could not move ; but to-day I am well and hearty. I write this hoping some other sufferer may try it. W. S. Flemtho.

The majo'ity of farmers, in their de sire to plant and sow many acres in what are known as the standard of com mercial crops, ordinarily Deglect to raice many little thiDgs that are very condu cive to good living. Peihaps the short ness of the season in this pari of the country is the main cause of this neglect. It is certain the tables of people who live in towns are much better supplied 1 with fine garden vepetablrs and small fruits than those of families who live on fatms, especially on large farms oi th"se that are but partially Improved. Farmers generally have cabbage, onions. . Wets, carrots, turnips, cucumbers, and tomatofs, but very few of them raise cauliflower, which is as easily raised as cabbage, or egg plant, which can be J producfd with as little trouble as toma ; toes. Celery is rarely found in a farm : house unless it is brought from some large town, which is supplied with veg- etahles by a market gardener. By the , old methods ce!er7 was a very expensive 1 plant to raise and blanch, but ty '.he i improved methods it can be grown with i little difficulty, and it deserves to have a place in the garden of every farmer. Almost every one who raises corn has i green ears for roasting and boiling. But , on many farms the time of using them ; is limited to two or three weeks, the us I ual period for corn to remain in the milk state. All the corn is planted at j about the same time, and as a matter of course it all matures or becomes hard ' about the same number of days after it i was planted. It does not seem to occur to most farmers to plant a few hil's of corn during every week from April to Juiy and thereby secure a succession of ; roasting ears. M4CV farmers do not piant the sweet corn for table purposes because they have no seed or for fear it will "mix" with their ordinary Jent or flint corn. Tbey deprive themselves of a great and very cheap luxury by not p'antirg sweet corn at different times I in the spring and early summer to have a sucression of gren ears. Popcorn is j as desirable in the winter as eweet corn i is during the summer and the early part I of the fall. It is as easily raised as i common field corn, is an excel'eut arti ! cle of food, can be prepared for eating j without expense, and is promotive of household happiness. Still popcorn, plain or sugared, is mora common in the i c-y tban in the country. The condiments chiefly found on farm-bouse tables are pepper, vinegar, Crttsup, and mustard. Xot infrequently grated horseradish is found. But th garden radish, one of the most delicious of vegetables, as well as one of the Inst of appetizers, is rarely raised by fai lers. j The few who do raise garden radishes ; sow all tha seed at one time, and have I them in a tender and crisp condition ! but a few weeks t most. By sowing a J few seeds on rich, sandy soil every week ' from the time the frost lenves the soil j till the latter part of summer fin ' radishes can be secured for at least half j the year. By sowing the seed of the black Spanish radish at about, the time the seed of flat turnips is usually sown a supply of somewhat .inferior radishes ; can be obtained for use during cold weathei. Garden cress, or pepper-grass is not as generally raised as it was many years ago, though It is an excellent j relish, especially when used on cold i meal: Watercress has no superior as a j relish, and it can be raised almost with- out trouble on the banks of streams, the margin of springs, or the shores of lakes. A bed once established will remain in j good condition for years, and will sup- ! ply fresh stalks for the table from eail . in the spring till winter. ! Few farmers pay much attention to ; raising melons, and their use Is less i common in the country than in the city. They do not rank very high as articler ( of food, but they contribute to good liv- j ing. During tie past few years the con- j sumption of melons has increased very ; fast in cities, and housekeepers find them economical to buy, as they take the place of pastry. Good melons can i be raised s far north as corn can, and ' every farmer's family should be well ! supplied with them. Early (iardenin. It aeeds to be said again and again that no advantage can be gained by planting a garden before the soil is In a proper condition for tbe germinat.on or seeds. It is not an unworthy ambition to desire to be ahead of all others in the j matter of early vegitables, to boast the j finest lettuce, peas, radishes and pota- j toes in the neighborhood, but such ends . will not be attained by rnshing seeds in- J to the ground as soon as the snow fairly disappears, riant the garden when the j soil is yet chill and damp, while the j nights are cold, and the mornings frosty, ! and seeds will refuse to throw out their tender shoots, and either linger weets after their appointad time for appearing or else rot in the ground. Plants started under such discouraging conditions rarely thrive afterwards, even under careful cultivation. They seem aever to gain the vigor of plants that started under more congenial circumstances. ; Their hard struggle to push through the 1 cold, stiff soil apparently so exhausts 1 their vital energy, that they never re- ! cover, it is Detter to wan in every case until the soil is thoroughly warm and rneapurably dry before disturbing thei surface at all. Of course the location ' OT,A txa nllar nltim I 6"",uu ",,v VJ" t- ""-" " of the soil itself helps to determine the proper time for ploughing. A garden with a sloping surface, or an open, ' sandy soil, is not likely to be made lumpy ' by early cultivation, though in other respects it may be quite unfit f3r the best growth of plants. It is not un frequently the case that gardens planted late in lhe season overtake and excel those Started Very early. In the former case, the seeds germinate quickly, and grow to maturity unchecked in the warm soil and genial air. There is no Implied excuse here for tardiness or negligence in the preparation of the garden, but a cauticn against that haste which, in this instance, makes waste UUIU JL IllliG CWLlU iuai.t;ii(iif A a u' j ao uo way of forcing plants In hot-beds or otherwise, an early garden can be en sured only by cartful preparation of the soil, by choosirig tbe most favorable time for putting in seeds, and afterwards by frequent hoeing, watering, and gen eral culture of the growing plant.

Ti -a'so should l t'r.e rnlp with eref ' - liit?f-s that bolt the:.r foo withi i prinding. If, hJw ver, a horse e. s ra'her slowlf and piojwrly grir tils food it i te:ter that the grain ard hay be fed in the natural s'.ate. If a horse is to do hard work duriii? the day ground food is preferable for tl.s morning meal. It is digested more rar illy than when it Is fed whole. Anoth er mistake too often made is to rush a horse into exhaustive work as soon as i he has swallowed his meal. Nothing ; could be more destructive to health. A. least an hour shoold intervene after l feeding before a hore in driTrn hard cr pul'ed exhaus'ively. The giving of water is not les" Impor J tant than feeding. During a jourcev. i and especially in hot weather, the team j should te allowed to drink at every or i pottunity if they will. Bnt at no tlrrf ! Eho lid they L allowed to Ell tlieinsplvf ? ; with water. Four qnarts is enough for j a horse at anj time, unless a lorg dl ! tance has been driven. Then four , quarts is enough for the first draft. At j the end of tweutv minutes each hor?e j should be allowtd a pailful if be wi"! : drink it. Generslly he will not do ?, j but if allowed he may take two or thr-? i pailfuls at tbe first draft, and always to i his damage. j The stomach of the horse will coDU:rj ; only from twe're to six'een quarts. A pailfnl of waf?r will fill the stomach of ; tfce ordinarv horsa. Th" wHter drark does not remain in the stomach. It passes into the large lDtestice (cscun.) and thence to the bowels, being tek-ri up along tbe passage by the aVsorbent?. If large quantities of water are giver, the horse sweats or stales profusely, ar. tbe syiem is depleted. The tints he-e given, if carefullv considered and acU 1 on, will save many veterinary fees, anl in rparsely settled districts will ear' mu:h unnessary disability, and tvtntLe dpith of this the most valuable setvaLt j of man. Colic, indigestion and other j complications arising from improper ) watering and feeding kill more horse; j thn ail other causes combined. ( fder Tlnegar. , The best quality of all, says the TVtl. ' wit and Farmer, is tbe good old fah ' ioned cider vinegar. Formerly this I was the only kind used, but, since the i manufacture of vinegar has become bet- ter known. It can be made so much cheaper that pure cider vinegar is al : most on& of the things of the past. Though the process of its manufacture ' from cider is so simple, yet fev seem to well understand it. Al' fruit contains more or less sugar, and, what appears moBt strange, some of the sourest fruits contain the most sugar, v.hile the sweet er ones may contain very little. This is caused by the sugar beiDg concealed by the stronger acid of the fruit, while in the sweeter apple there is scarcely any acid, and the apple appears to be really sweeter than it is. The sugar, when the cider is express ed from the apple, goes with it. This sugar is the bans of the vinegar. This cider, w hen m tnfactured. should be placed in a clrun cask or barrel. One tLat is sour, but not musty, being pre ferred. This baiiel must be put in a warm place, and the bung left out to allow access of the air to form the vine gar. The air unites with the f-ugsr of the cider, causing a rapid formation of a gas, that causes the cider to boil, as it were, by its escape. Freeh air being constantly added through the open bung, the process is rapidly continued until all ' the sugar is converted into alcohol. A , change eow takes place. The alcohol ! which is formed is acted upon by the i air and converted into vinegar, more I rapidlv, of course, undrc proper cordi I tions than unfavorable ones. If the ! barrel is only filled halffull of the cider, ; and kept at a tempratnre of from SO to S.3 degrees and air freely admitted, and the barrel agitated by rollitg, gocd vin egar can be made in a few weeks, brt the flavor will not be so high as it ' would by slower making. "When tfce ; barrel or cask is filled very full, and bet , little surface- is exposed to the air, the j process goes on very swly. If tbe c! ' der is kept, as in a cellar, at a low tern ! perature. the recess Is also much retar ; ded, frequently taking more than twice the time to complete the making. ! The better the cider the better the vinegar. Tbat made from green and unripe fruit will never make a superior article, and in many caes will turn black and putrefy in the barrel and be worthless. Fref zir.g is injurious to the flavor and quality of cider vinegar. ! Thk milk from sick or diseased cows should always be thrown away. Noth ing spreads contagion sooner than impure or filthy milk ; yet, as a rule, all the mil i6 poured into cans together without regard to the condition of tie cows.
