    FARM, UAROEX AND HOUSKHOI.P.
Th Wr n "Cur*
Mr. A. Brewster, West Ossipee, N
11., sends the following communication
t i the Boston OiWca/or .• In my exjvo
riencc on the farm I have observed font
different worms which prey upon the
growing corn. The first of these is
what the farmers call the "wirewotm,"
of a yellow color, and when full grown
i t not over one and one fourth inches
long and about the aiae of a knitting
needle. It begins its mischief, as noou
as the corn is planted, hv burrowing in
the kernel and eating out the clot. They
arc most numerous ou cold, wet land.
The I>est remedy I know of is to put in
a larger amount of need. with a broken
ooli for every hill—instead of attacking
the corn, they crawl into the pith of t li
cob. and thus are harmless.
The secotiil kind is the "outworn,"
because it cuts off the growing stalk of
com just level with the surface of the
soil. Tina cutting down of the small
blade is but a slight injury, for it keeps
ou growing and in a few days all the
traces of the wound that ren aiu are the
shattered tips of a few of the lower
leaves. If hunted for soon after this
euttiug has Iveen done the worm will be
found in the lull, about au inch below
the surface. It is of a very dark brown
color, bl.uit at each end, about the tug
ness of a pipe stem, aud from oue to one
and one-halt inches iu length. Remedy
—Hive the corn early, hunt the worms
and kill them as you go. Yon may think
this a hard task, but it can be done both
rapidly aud thoroughly after a few
hours' practice.
The third kind is what farmers de
nominate the " grnbworm," because he
gnaws off the growing spire of corn,
close down to the kernel, and kills it as
t ffivtually as if it had boeu grabbed up
by the root-*. I is about the site aud
length of the cutworm; color white, or
nearly so; hind part of the body taper
iug toward a point with rings. If this
kind be at work on your corn, a single
glance at the hill discloses the fact. The
1 armor knows that there is only ouc
remedy, and that is to get right down
and dig it oat. I have known them to
kill the eo: n after it had attained th>.
height of more than two feet.
The fourth species is the "wuite
worrn," which is so familiar to the ey
of every fanner t very where. They are
produced fro ui the eggs of the Juno big
t lack beetle; every third year they come
by the acre; this season they are sweep
ing clean manv thousand acres of Ullagi
laud in Carroll county, it matters uot
what the crop may be. They ilevour
the com roots below the kernel, and
will attack it at any time while it stands
in the field. Remedy—Preserve their
natural enemies; there i no other withiu
the reach of man. Their most formula
ble toe is the crow, which will flv many
miles for a feast ou their fat laxiies.
The aknuk destroys great numbers of
these Ivetles aud thus pvreveuts the
Laying of eggs which might produce an
army of worms. Gradually as the
fanner and the crow become more inti
mate friends the depredations of all
kinds of worms will booome lighter.

United Pennsylvania supplies
one-fifth of the rye produced in this
i ountry, oi 3,577,t'41 bushels out of 16,-

tity of corn than any other State, or
129,921,395 of the 760,944,249 the coun
try provinces. Illinois also takes the
lead in the oat crop, growing 42,789,581

tivator of bnokwheat, raising 3,904,030
of a tot-d of 9,821.721 bohm Missis
sioii takes the lead among the cotton
growii.g States. Ohio produces more
than half the flax of the United States.
Kentucky grows moie than half the
hemp crop of our country. California
produce s nine-tenths of our native silk
cocoons. Ohio contributes one-fifth of
all the wool produced in the United
States, oi twice as much as New York,
and nearly twice aa much as California.
New York provinces more than cue-fifth
of the Lay crop, or nearly twice as much
as Pennsylvania, which furnishes the
next largest figures in that line.
New York furnishes more than two
thirds cf the hop crop of the country,
South Carolina supplies nearly half
the rice produced iu the country.
Georgia is next, or 7.000,000 pounds
ahead of Louisiana. Nearly all the rice
comes from these three States. Of the
272,734.341 pounds of tobacco produced
ia the country, 105,3135,828 pounds are
grown iu Kentucky. Virginia conies
next with 38,086,364 pounds. Louisiana
contributes nearly all the sugar and mo
lasses from cane, and Vermont nearly
one-third of the sugar from manle, while
New York produces one-fourth of the
sugar of maple. Ohio %nJ Indiana (the
latter most) produce each one-eighth of
sorghum molasses. New York grows
one-fifth of the whole potato crop.
- North Carolina produces more sweet po
tatoes that any other State.

An Ohio member recommended for
the purification of the water of a cistern
that has U-oome foul the letting down
into it of a bushel of pounded charcoal
inclosed in a coarse sack ; the process to
he repeated with fresh charcoal if neoes
sarv.
An experienced dealer said to those
farmers who intend setting out trees the
t oming season : " Buy small thrifty
trees, not the largest ones to be had," as
the small ones are not only more liable
to live, but will soon overreach the
larger OIK a and give in all respects bet
ter satisfaction.
Among suggestions given for the
present season was : " Give all fruit
trees a whitewash coating to keep off
and destroy the bark louse," etc.; also :
" Nip the new growth of currants, rasp
berries and blackberries," and " watch
newly set trees and rub off the small
sprouts and buds, which are liable to
form brauches when branches are not
desired."
The treatment given for a cow
suffering from a sprain of the fetlock
was : Thoroughly bathe with water as
warm as the hand can comfortably Iwar,
and then bandage with :i flannel" cloth,
wet iu a mixture of one part vinegar to
three parts of water ; keep the bandage
wet, and prevent the cow from ranging
about until strong again, as rest is es
sential to a cure.
Barns and Braids.
The recent fearful explosion on board
the British ironclad Thunderer has call
ed out the publication of many recipes
and remedies. Among them all, the fol
lowing, contributed by an old and ex
perienced physician, has the merit of
"Convenience and readiness. The remedy
is simply this: The common whiting of
commerce (found in nearly every kitch
en), reduced by cold water to the con
sistence of thick cream, is to lie spread
on a light linen rag, end the whole
burnt surface instantly covered", and thus
excluded from the action of the air.
The ease it affords is instantaneous, and
it only requires to be kept moist by sub
sequent occasional sprinklings of cold
water.
(.'bnrroHl for Turkey*.
From California came the advice to
the farmers' club to furnish charcoal for
fattening turkeys. It should be pul
verized and mixed with corn meal,
mashed potatoes or other substance that
can be fed out in little lumps. It was
also recommended to feed young turkeys
the first week four times a day, after
which three times will be sufficient; to
keep tin m in a pen until olu enough
to rang< without danger from "lamp and
cold. The great secret of success in
raising young turkeys is to keep them
dry and warm, and to supply them with
grass, gravel, bugs and flies until allowed
to run at large and pick up these things
for themselves.

A corresjvondeut rites; I haTe j tut
ien the town of Batok. Here is what 1
>ow. Oil approaching the town on a
hill there were some dogs. They ran
away, and we found on the spot a num
ber of skulls scattered about, aiul one
gha>tly heap of skeletons with clothing
I ojtuibsl from the saddle a hundred
skulls. On enteriug the town we saw
ou every side skulls and skeletons
ekamd among the ruins, or lying eu
tire where tiny fell in their clothing.
We approached the church. There
these remains were more freqm ut, until
the ground was lib-rally covered with
skeletons, skulls and bodies.
Between the church aud the schvavl
there were heaps of dead bodica. The
sight was dreadful. The whole church
yard for three bet deep wits festering
with dead bovliea part y covered—haiulx
legs, arms and heeds projecte d in ghastly
confusion. I saw many little hands,
heads and feet of children of three years
of age, and girls with heads covered
with beautiful hair. The church was
-till worse. The floor was covered with
bodiee. 1 never imagined anything so
fearful. There were three thottsauil
IxKlies in the chnrchyurd and church.
Iu the school, a fine building, two hun
dred women and children had Iveen
burnt alive. All over the town there
were the same scenes. In some place*
heajia of bodies buried in shallow hole*
had been uncovered by the d g-. The
banks of the little striam ••• i o c v<-revi
with bovliee. Many Is.dii h hud been
carried to Tatar B-m.rdjik, a di-tantv
of thirty miles. Tht town had 9,000
iuhahitauts. There now ri-imiui 1,200.
The man who did all this. Achmed
Aga, has Iveen promoted, aud is still
governor of the district, due U' wapajM r
accounts were not exaggerated. They
could not be. No crime invented by
Turkish fenvity was left uncommitted.
Sevan thousand bodies have becu lying
here aine-. May 12, rotting in the nun,
preyed upon by dogs; and Sir Heury
Elliot has never heard that the authori
ties demand a war contribution from the
remaining inhabitants of 100,000
piastres. The town formerly paid a
million. The harvest is rotting in the
fields. The owners are in the church
yard. The survivors' cattle have been
taken by the Turks, who refuse to re
'store it. It is impossible to get iu the
harvest. It is not true that the Turks
are sending help. The inhabitants
everywhere complain b> M. Schuyler
that their cattle are not restored, "and
that help is not giveu.
The sUt< ments that the Bulgarians
committed atrocities is utterly uufoanded
and shamefully false. M. Hchuylar
thinks that less than two hundred
Turks were k led, nearly all in open
combat. There is no proof yet that a
single Turkish woman or child was
killed. There is urgent need of relief
for the starving and helpless families.
Massacre* in Bulgaria.
A special dispatch from the Bucharest
correspondent of the Daily Xrwt, who
accompanied Mr. Schuyler in his tour
of investigation, says Mr. Baring's re
port of sixty villages burned and I'J.OOO
persons killed by the Turks in Bulgaria
does not include the outrages committed
in the district uorth of the Balkans, nor
in the district of Sophia.
Forty villages were burned north of
the Balkans, and seventy south. Mr.
Schuyler lias not completed his investi
gation, but be estimates the numbs of
the killed at W.OOO in ths district of
Phdippopoli* alone.
The regular troops are more srncl than
the Bastii Basonk*. No doubt the mas
sacres were committed with the sanction
of tbs authorities. Outrages continue
to occur. The governor of Phtlippopo
lis wauts cavalry to quell ths Mussul
mans.
Mr. Schuyler thinks there is immedi
ate danger of additional massacres. He
will suggest to hie government tbe fol
lowing measures: Tbe hanging of four
leaders in these atrocities, the disarming
of tbe Mussulmans, and tbe rebuilding
of the burned villages at government ex
pense. As these measures cannot lie
left to tbe authorities, Mr. Schuyler will
propose a foreign commission to see that
this be executed.
A Minnesota Farm.
Dalrymple's big Minuesota farm of
30,t00 acres is just turning out its wheat
crop of 1,300 acres. Nine self-binding
harvesters are constantly employed
reaping and binding 180 acres a day.
Mr. Dairympie is harvesting his crop
for about one-fifth the cost required
under the system in vogue ten years ago.
The yield will average eighteen bushels
to the acre, and the net profit will be
87,000. Dalrymple has broken 0,000
acres for next year's wheat. During the
breaking season Mr. Dalrymple had as
high as one huudred teams at work.
The furrows turned were six miles long,
and the teams made but two trips a day,
traveling with each plow, to make the
four furrows, twenty-four miles. Dal
rymple commenced his farming career
by working in the grain fields at 810
per month. He saved money enough to
buy forty acres, and kept adding to it
until he owns a ranch. He was bred a
lawyer, bat left the bar to harvest
wheat.
DISCIPLINED. —Tbe Indians who a
year ago were sentenced to confinement
in Florida for murders committed on the
plains, have since been intrusted with
guard and sentry duty at tbe fort where
they are kept, and have proved them

of drill aad discipline.

ADVENMRE WITH A MADMAN.
'• Well, Tom, yon don't uu-au to ay
you funk it I I thought you had more
pluck than to stick ut a little thing like
tliat. Suppose the spire w a huutlrv.l
and tlftv feet high; why, thoro are Iml
Jen all the way up, mid isn't it juet if
easy to mount the hundredth step as
the first I" urged my adventurous com
ride, a- he looked wistfully up ut the
tall, tapering steeple which the work
men wi re then newly painting.
" 1 tell you what, Willie, i don't ace
the use of running the risk of breaking
our u-H-ks in the attempt. For you, who
have so lately recovered from hratu
fever, it would be the height of folly."
" If so, Tom, it's folly's height itself
I'm going to elimh to, uud within ten
minutes I'll be astride of the weather
cvvk. Good-bye, my boy; I'm sorry
you haven't the courage to follow ;" and,
vrhkstliug a lively tune. Willie Bruduey
walked t ovard the church lurch.
1 was now ashamed to hang l>aek; I
knew that the next day Willie's sdvcu
turo would make him the hero of the
school—a position which we were ever
struggling for in jealous rivalry; *\ ere
h reached the church porch, 1 overtook
him and signith i uiv iutentiou of shar
ing the adventure.
"That's right, old fellow," was the
retort; " hut e i, Ih> quick, before the
workmen return from diuner," and,
passing i: to the I- Ifi), bo ii-cmdid tin
steep w:u. a g st< ps of the tower, and
soon g.iii.. d the battlements.
So far ail was vn 11. We had alp ily
ascended iuo hundred feet from the
ground ; hut aluve us rose the tall,
tapering spire to a height of a hundred
and fifty feet more—its Coriuthian piu
uacle surmount' 1 l>v the glitteriug
weathercock, which luul been Lowly
gilded. The ase nt had to be male by
ladders, which were la-und to each otlioi
and secured tightiv to the stonework.
1 glan -• d at Braduey. lie sc. m<*d
000 l and determined, His right f xl
was alr a.]v <>n the ladder.
*' Oo < u," 1 raid ; "if yon are re
solved, I'm with you," aud away b<
went, and 1 after him.
There is nothing much easier tliau
getting up a ladder. I took care to
grasp my way tightly with both
hand*, and neither to look up nor down.
Willie, however, clim'-ed much faster
than I, though uukvi tomri to the
work. We lotb (ten paused to rest.
At List I heard him shout :
"Here's a pretty go, Martin! this
confounded pinnacle projects a matter
of two feet at)vc the top bar of tin la<l
dor. I don't sec how to clamber over
it."
" Come down, then, like a sensible
fellow," I cried, for 1 heartily wished
the adventure over.
"Oh, go to Bath !" was the courteous
retort, aud looking up I perceived Bnal
uey's legs dangling ia the air, a* he en
deavored to dandier over the projecting
stonework to reach the iron vane.
In this he succeeded. I was equally
lucky. A momeut later, aided by the
orossliars which marked the points of the
compass, we ascended the huge weather
cock and sat astride of it facing each
other.
it was then that the horror of our sitna
tion seemed first to burst upon each of
us. I looked down, and two hundred
and fifty feet below lay the town, anit
the great space, filled with people, evi
dently intently gazing np at us, and
looking no bigger than dolls. Then,
glancing at the churchyard beneath, it
presented the apjs-arance of a small,
level grass plot, with white ruice run
ning over it, for to my bewildered vis
ion the very gravestones seemed to
move. I felt that I was becoming dizzy;
the flaky clouds above appeared to flash
by with sickening rapidity, and I threw
my arms back ward jronml the tail of the
cock for support.
At this momeut a hollow, harsh laugh
broke from my companion; for the
first time I glanced in his facte, and the
terrible expression depicted there 1 shall
never forget.
His eyes flashed lurid and wild, his
face was pale as a corpse, and a light
foam stood npon his lips.
" Isn't this glorious ?" he screamed,
with another maniacal laugh; " right to
the blazing sun, I tell yon, we aro sour
ing fast. Look at the gaping crowd be
low. Ah ! ah ! they can't stay us.
There's the old church tower, too, I
should say a mile down; but where is the
Hpire—the tall spire we climbed up once?
'tis gone, never mind ! Oh, brave bird !"
and he struck the cock with the flat of
hiH hand, as if to encourage its flight
A terrible thought struck me. My
friend's reason, so lately prostrated
with brain fever, had left him. I was
alone with a madman.
This idea was soon confirmed. Again
rung forth the shrill hollow laugh, ami
again Bradney snouted with the accents
of delirium :
"Ah! ah! faster aud faster! Hee (he
blood-red clouds above and below us !
the world is gone ! There is the sun, a
ball of fire, and we are sailing into its
very vortex. I say, Martin, let us throw
ourselves off this stupid bird's
back; wo shall get along faster without
him."
"No, no, Bradney; 1 m tired, and
like riding—let us stop whore we are,"
I replied, for I knew it was the best
way to humer a madmen, 1 ut my words
had no effect. With an unnatural
chuckle he answered me :
"No, no, my boy; you prosniaed to
follow me, ami you shall coma off with
me, or I'll pull you oil' by main foree.
W fly so fast that if we don't take the

James Draper, h> r butl.hr and owner,
litis at St. John, N. lb lie formed a
dc-ire to go t Australia and try cattle
farming, 1 ut his means wire limited.
Some of the neighbors wished to go,
too, and ho conceived the i lea of build

als.ut twenty jwraoua on the toyage.
Although hu had never mxn .i veael on
the stocks, six y< ars ago hu couun nsl
building his boat. His farm was on the
river about ltd nidus above St John,
and there he begua work. He failed
the tree* himself, shaped tin m, put
them together, and completed the Ik at
alone. On the outside she looks like

She i* scbuouer rigtp d, flfty-tlve feet
ktx'l, eighteen feet Iwatn, and eight feet
depth of hold. Rough wikhluu steps

Urge enough to drive a horse and w.agoa
through. She r-gi-ters sixty- ue ton*,
but her tiiaU rs are strong enough for a
vessel of far) In v She is built entirely
of juniper wood; btr sides are twenty
two inches at the keel, tajx-ring off
gradually to twelve inches at the rail.
Tb> mainmast is forty feet high, the
foremast thirty eight f<x-t, ami she car

A tioTol Idea.
An advertisement appeared in n New
York paper calling for one hundred
stonecutters to go to Scotland to work
f <r two years at lOd. sterling per hour.
Fully live hundred men applied for the
position, and from those one hundred
were selected. The men will earn about
t'l 10*. per week, and board will le
about. 10s. per week. The reason why
American help is needed is that laborers
are scarce in Scotland and all the work
in this contract has to lw done inside
three years. Therefore the contractor
thought of engaging one hundred
American workmen, and they can de
pend on fully two years' work, if not
more.
Training Sheep Ilog.
The following is said to lie a Texan
practice for training sheen dogs: A pup
is taken from its mother before its eyes
are opened, and put to a ewe to stickle.
After a few times, the ewe becomes
reconciled to the pup, which follows
her like a lamb, grows up among, and
remains with the flock, and no wolf,
man, or strauge dog can come near the
sheep: and the dog will bring the flock
to the fold regularly at half-past seven
o'elock, if ho is habitually fed at that
hour.
PAINTINO. —AIcohoI was invented #SO

cause they required no powder to tire
them off.

The Londuu Standard has ths follow- ,
tug : It hua occurred Ui ths Kennel club,
a In uly of gi-nllem<-u who aru interested
iu the improvement of ilognof ell t>renls,
that the collie trials which had proveil
MI auixwwMiful iu Wall a might be carried
on a little nearer the metropolis, and
they therefore organized a meeting in
the Alexandra park. Tlio mode in i
which the trials are conducted is an fob j
Iowa; A flock of Welsh wethers, one
hundred in number, huvn Is-cn brought
up to the park, and were penned near
the grand stand on the racecourse.
From this flock three animals were taken
at hazard, and oonveved to the aide of
the bill on which the palace stands and
set at liberty. On the circular cricket
ground, some half mile to the west, a
triangular pen of hurdlea, with au |>-u
--ing in the I mow-, formed a sort of atatiou,
Hiu t which are gruujHxi the judges and
officials of the show, and from which the
shepherd with the dog tiiat wan about to
bo tesUxl took his ih | art ure. The man
and dog walked togt tic r along the race
course until the sh< p Were sighted,
when he gave a sign or a word to hi*
four footed oomjiaui <u, and the intelli
gent brute at once shifted off at S gallop
and sought fir-1 to ditve the sheep down
the lull toward his master. When he
h.-vl suctxH-dc 1 in doing this, the man
walked toward the j ■n, and the dog
drove the sin ep aft. r him until they
were near enough U- operate m getting
the slitH-p inside. Twenty mi notes was
the maximum time allowed, the prizes
being wou by those who succeeded in
jienmug their sheep in the shortest time,
, while loose who failed hi r n within the
allotted time were di-qualified. It was
not difficult to discover that dog* and
sheep were working under great disad '
vantages, and animals which have no j
douli a Well deserved reputation on :
their own hills LuJ> d to distinguish ,
tlumaelv.a under t Unly novel ooudi
..on*, though enough was demonstrated
to make it apparent that these collie
trials are likely to t> *>me a very inter
eating annual performance. Though a
spatx* of ground was marked off by rojies
and stukos, which acre rcsjvwrted by the
hjHH'tatora, the shti pft it under no centric- <
tiona, and the poor c-llie, therefore, thai
i had lieeu used to the clear view of a
Welsh hillside, with no hnmsn being
hut his master withi miles of him, haul
to dodge his chsigea imoug visitors and
round plantations, w ;ch fiequently hl.i
tliem altogi tht-r. Ti. sheep were many
of th<-m wry wild and ran like <U*r,
their disinclination t proceed in the di
rection of the iwu L :ag increased from
the main flock b. ing iu full view, „ J
thus stimulating the natmal otme trn
deucy to rejoin companions. In s>-v. ral
ivumto, on the dog uearing the throe
sheep, the nimble aud iude|>eudeut
wethers scattered aud galloped in differ
| cnt directiona out of sight, when the
collie, after an honest attempt to bring
! them together, neemexl to conclude that
it was hopelena to complete the bask in
twmty minute*, no he philosophically
dri>p|*-d it altogether and trotted bark
to his master. Some of the trisda of
wethers behaved iu a mnimcr more in
see* iTiLauce with the gregarious traditions
of their race, and when, in addition to
hanging together, they happened to
start in the right direction down hill, :
the first jvortiou of the dog's work was
easily and speedily done. The marvel
una sagacity of this breed was seen when
tile sheep w ere near the pen and the dog
hail to overcome their natural disincli
nation to enter. Not only did the aui-.
nial in this j**ition obey every aign and
word of his master, but he would exer
cise what might almost he called hi*
own reason and discretion in the mode
of c.trryiug ont hi* master's, wishes in s
fashion that astonishing. Success,
however, dejwudeil altogether ou the be
havior of the tlm*' particular sheep.
One famous dog named Handy, which
won the champion prizes two yours run
ning in Wales, was very nufortunate in
this r<spx-t. He siu-coeded iu getting j
them to the js-u in splendid stylo, but
nothing could imluee the brutes to en
ter. They broke sway a score of timoa, j
and, after a display of ability worthy of
his high reputation, joor flsndy failed
to accomplish the tvsk within the twenty
' minutes. The mo.-t puceewstri ivr
formanoe was that b> a slut nsm<xl Mud- .
die, belonging to Mr. John Thomas, of
Bala. Favored by tractable wethers,
she soceeedixl in s little over four ntiu
tip's. A famous dog named Boy lid the
work in seven and s half minutes. Au
other called latddic bxik nine minuU*,
aud two others, IVutre and Tweeii.
twelve minutes each. There were nine
teen entries for the nil og"d stakes, stid
these were tested. Mr. Low ml.*' Lad
die perils;* showed the highest training,
by the way in which he followed every
motion of his shepherd's hand ; now
circling round, now creeping nearer to
the flock, and th< u sitting on his
haunches until the signal to move again
was given. The man who worked the
dog had not seen him for twelve months.
But the triumph in point of quickneaa
was reserved for Mr. Jones' young dog.
Boy, who brought li a charge to their
pen in seven minute* and a half. Mr.
Thomas' Maddie also penned his sheep
very well. It i* curious that all these
were \V< Isli dogs belonging to Welsh
graz 'rs. but then the great home of
collies— Beotland-was not represented.
The English dogs nearly all managed to
let their sheep wniub rin freedom "over
the hills and far away," but Mr. J.
Glendinny's Tool got his lot together
very well, and penned them cleverly.
