Fact About the Sea. The sea ia the reservoir Into which run all the rivers of the world. It l tie cistern wliicb Anally catches all 'he rain that f not only upon Us own surface, but upon the surface of the land and upon the roofs of our tn m . All this wattr Is removed again by evaporation as fast as it I supplied. It is estimated that every year a layer of the entire sea fourteen feet thick Is taken up Into the cloud. This vapor Is fresh, und if all the water could t moved in the s me way and non) of it returned it is calculated that there would be left a layer of pare salt 230 feet thick on the bed of the Atlantic. This Is upon the supposition that three depth of water contains one Inch depth of salt, and that the aversge deptn of the ocean is three miles. At the depth of about 3"aM feet the temperature is uniform, varving but a trifla between the poles and the equator. The colder water is below. It is re rorte.l that in many deep bays on the coast of Norway the water often begins to freeze at the bottom before it does at the surface. At this depth waves are not felt. Waves do not travel that is, the wa ter does not move forward, although it sems to do so ; it stays in the same place : The rising and falling moves on. We measure waves by the height and by the distance from crest to crest. In deep water this latter distance is about fifteen times the height of the waves. In shallow water the proportion is less, and thia makes a choppy sea. The force of the waves is in propor tion to their height. It is said that the sea strikes on Bell rock with the force of seventeen tons to each square yard. The pressure of the water increases as we go down. At the depth of a mile this pressure is reckoned at more than a ton to the fquare inch that is, more than 133 times the pressure of the at mosphere. To get correct sounding in deep wa ter Is difficult. A shot weighing tb'r'y pounds carries down the line. Through this sicker a hole is bored, and through the hole is passed a rod of iron which tuovf s easily back and forth. In the end of the tar a cup is dug our. and the inside is coated with lard. Tho bar is made fast to the line and a sling holds the snot on. When the bar. which ex tend below the shot, touches the bot tom, the sling unhooks and the shot slides off. The cup in the end of the bur holds some of the sand, or -whatever may be on the bottom, and a cover shuts over the cup to keep the water from washing the sand out. In this way we learn the character of the deep sea bottom. It will be seen at once that we can know the depressions of the bottom cf the ocean more easilv and more accur ately than we can learn the elevation of the land. As a consrquence we have a better typographical map of much of that surface thaa we have of the conti nents. The depth of the sea presents some interesting considerations. If the At lantic were lowered f.V.l feet it would be reduced to half its present wid.h. If t were lowered a little more than three .nilei there r.ou'd be dry l.inl all the .ay between Newfoundland and Ire uid. If the Mediterranean w re low ed '',!) feel, Africa would bo joined to a!y and three s, parate sejs would re lin. riiiek and lluucsly. 1 .uck ard honesty are the two tsm . ila to success in life, writes Mr. Ed. .

Very nearly all people, to some extent, borrow trouble, and more particularly id this true of the majority of houn--keeper?. There is o much of anxiety aud worriment In the care of a Urga family tbat a person does not wonder at the mother of such a famil- for borrow ing a little trouble now and then, though tbe smallest amount of this ar ticle borrowed the tetter for both mother and family. IT tbe trouble bor rowers were confined to this class of people we could find some excuse for them, but this is not the case. Mothers of large families are seldom of this kiod. to any extent, they generally have so much to do that they scarcely hare any time for trouble borrowing, which is ery fortunate for Ibem. To be sure they all have more or less anxiety and trouble in their families, but they meet it brave'.T when it comes, but they will not look for it, as tbe trouble borrower does. Ttrhaps during some part of their lives they themselves were inclin ed to borrow this same kind of ware, but as the cares of tbe family Increased, tbey very easily came to the conclusion tbat the peace of mind of themselves and families depended on tbeir casting all such fancies away, and only recog nize trouble when they meet it face to . face. Women who have a great deal of trou ble In tbeir lives can hardly be blamed for looking forward and expecting it at any time or place ; yet they are not tbe chronic trouble borrowers. Tbey may look rorward to and expect it, but tbey do so silently and resigned'y, and will irgly accept whatever may be in store for them without a murmur against it or a comment on it. The real trouble borrower is a woman who has had very little trouble during hei life, and very seldom has a person such as this had any heavy afflic tion whatever. She Is in a continual dread or something bappering, and if any accident does occur, she usually claims the honor of having prophesied it ; In fact, at such a time she is a! ways an I told you so" kind of person If the children are a little late in return ing from school she la positive some thing is the matter with them. A neighbor reminds her tbat her chillren, who attend the same school, are also late ; such a communication does not relieve her in tbe least, for it doesn't matter whose children are late, se is positive ber's never would be so unless something bad happened. The chi'.dren comb home all right, and tbat blows over, only ?o be repeated when tbey are out ot her sight agaiu. The baby dot-s not learn to taik fast enough, and ehs is certain be is never going to speak, for all tbe oth.r children began to speak long before tbey were his age. Iu a few months baty uses bis tougue, and after ward as'om.-Lesi her by learning faster and speaking plainer than any of tbe other children did at bi9 ai?e. If there is any illness iu tbe family, no matter bow slight a nature, no physician can con riiica her that It is not a dangerous malady, and she worries and frets until the perion is well when she transfers her worriment to something elsp. Se foresees any amount of trouble, but sel dom has any. It does seem as ttougti this very thing ought to convince her as to tbe uselessnevs o! borrowing trouble, but 11 bs grown to be part tf her nature, and very often only tt.f presence cf real trouble will destroy it. Keep tbe Stables Light. I) uk stalks are an abomination, and should i.ot. be tolerated. There is no necessity to sacrifice comfort either in winter or summer, to secure enough l:gLt. A horse's eyes axe enlarged the pupil of theey3 is by being kept in a dark stable ; he has a harnesi put on to him and suddenly brought out in to the bright, glaring sunlight, which contracts the pupil so suddenly as to cause extreme pain. By persevering In this reiy foolish and Injudicious, as well as cruel practic, the nerves of the eye become impaired, and if continued long enough, loss of sight will ensue. Tu sea bow very painful it is to face a bright light after having been in the dark, take a walk snrne dark night for a short time, till the eye becomes accus tomed to the dtrkne8s, then drop sud denly into some well lighted room acd you will be scarcely able to see for a few moments in the sudden light. You know how painful it is yourself, then why have, your horse repeatedly to bear such unnecessary pain ? A diik stable is invariably a damp one, and such stables we are not willing to put either a valuable working or driving horse in. Give good ventilation, let the sunsbice and the air have a chance to effect an entrance, and your stables will la purer and more healthy than if you take such pains to exclude them and tbe good iufluence they invariably bring. Points Worth knowing. Usa good soap In the kitchen, as it saves the hands Salt dissolved in alcohol will remove grease spots from cloth. Rub the tea-kettle with kerosene and polish with a lry flannel cloth. Flour should be kept ma barrsl, with a fljur scop to dip it and a eieve to sift it. Camp chairs are now covered with plush und bordered with tiny tassels of silk. Ceilings that have been smoked by a kerosene lamp should be washed off with soda water. Cold sliced .otatoes fry and taste better by spi inkling a teapoonful of flour over Ibem while frying. The surest test of a frozen orange is its weight. If it is heivy in tbe band it has not tetn frozen. Drain pipes and all placra that are sour or impure may be cleansed with lime water or carbolic acid. Bent whalebones can be restored and ued again by simply noaking in water a few hours, then drying tht m. For a cold on the chest, a flan eel rag rung out In boiling water and sprinkled with turpentine, laid on the ctttt, glvea the greatest relief.

Horses d'gest concentrated food, such as grain, when that forms part of the ration better thau coarse fodder, when tbat forms the whole ration. Oila are a more desirable Tood for ml f.a than corn meat, which is more concentrated and heatiug, besides be ing deficient in muscle-forming eie tneots. In using corn meal as feed for cattle it will be found, upon trial, that the fine, bolted, yellow meal will give bet ter results than any other form in which core can be fed. Indian corn Is tbe great food crop for animals in this country, and is produced in nearly every county of every Stale, and probably more cases of horse colic arise from fetding corn mea! than from all other foods combined. Turnips are too watery to feed alone. but, with good clover bay. they mak a very good ration for cattle or sheep, when they are only to be kept iu good condition ; when rapid fattening is de sired, grain must be added, in small quantity. When a youDg colt's Datura) supply of sustenance is inadequate, it should be increased by food of as nearly the same composition as possible. It will be found that cow's milk will serve this purpose. A little practice will poon teach the colt to take it with relish. He who would have his animals thrive and make satisfactoiy gain iu flesh, must study not only to make them comfortable, but also tob&ve their food such as tbey relish. Animals, like people, tire of one kind of food fed constantly, and need variety to keep up their appetite. The farmer, who, by concentrating bis energies and capital, can take as much produce from one acre as he form erly could from two acres with his en ergies and capital more divided, will save tbe rent of one acre of land ;for, in other words, will pay in proportion to his profits only half the rent he former ly was paying. Given in moderation, all artificial farm crops are. as a rule, healthy and nourishing food for stock, but they cin Dot always be given in moderation. The fattenlug of animals nowadays to be profitable must be done rapidly, and to tb'.s ?nd the food must be suppled in large quantities and iu the most paia 1 table condition possible. The training of the colts as th" grow up and developing in the good work horse or the all-purpose horse all of the points desirable la a well-broken and safe horse, is an accomplishment worthy of any mind, and the hand that does it, does not only a creditable deed, but accomplishes a work of value in money, and a value that is priceless. As an argument in favor of fall plow ing it is said tbat it destroys many nox ious insect? and weeds. By reversing the roots of weeds, and exposing these and insects to the frosts, they are de stroyed to a large extent. Besides, tl e work is dor.e at a season of comparative leisure, making it less expensive. Cu one of the most important conspira tions is that the crop can be put in two or three weeks earlier than on spiinjr plowing. If the farmer would hold his own In this world's rac. he must advance with the times, and seiz on every lawful advantage that can enable him to farm with greater profit. The most scientific mode of conducting his business is a matter of the clearest necessity with him. Iu his system of cropping, in manuring the ground, in the use of ma chinery, in the direction and employ ment of labor, in the breeding and feed ing of stock, and in the general conduct of farming affair?, a wide field for im provement lies open to him. One M ay to Get Ice. Many farmers who would be glad to have ice for summer use are deterred from putting it up because it can only be obtained a long distance from home and hauling would make it expensive. They perhaps, have a well with windmill and elevator tank, from which water could be carried in pipes to any desiied locali ty. Persons so situated can make theit ice in the ice-house in ordinary winters and at slight expense. A Canadian far mer adopted this plan more than 20 years ago, and hae been able each winter to make his bouse full of ic?. His water supply Is brought in pipes from a spring on higher ground than the buildings. The ice-house was built on lower ground than the tanks into which the water discharged at the house and barn. It was made with double walls, tha space between being packed with dry sawdust and a tight flxr and tight in side boarding. On the advent of severe freezing weather water wa let into the house in a small quantity at a time, and when frozen 60lid another supply was let io, tbe doorway being built up on tbe inside as the house filled. All the labor involved was tbe letting on and shutting off of the water. It took but a few days ot bard freezing weather to fill the house with one solidly frozen cake of ice. If mild weather intervened before this waa accomplished the door was closed until it turned cold agaiu. The ice kept better than ice put up in cakes with air spaces between, but was not as convenient to get out, as the whole mass was solid. In building such a house, as there can be no packing at the bottom and sides, between the ice and bnilding, it would be well to use matched flooring, put together with lead, for the floor and inside boarding of the sides so that the leakage would not wet tbe packing under the floor nor in tbe walls. Tbe water should be con veyed in open troughs, as lead or iron pipes would after a little fill up with ice from the frequent shutting off of the water. C't nuaaalon Wine. Mr. Alfred Speer, tbe celebrated wine grower of New Jersey, preseives the unfer mented. Juice of the grape for Sacramental use. It baa has U en adopted, and its w sauctioned by the promicent divinrs of this country. It is alai usert by Iuvalida with reuiaikkbly good effect.
