    DRIFTWOOD,
A urrr.a Democratic weekly in the
State of New York priiitn in editorial
beaded " Advice to Garfield." It the
President doesn't both Tad and heed it,
he will be pretty mead ; because the-edi
tor was compelled to crowd out a liver
pad advertisement to make room for the
article.. Presidents little know the self
sacrificing nature of some editors.—Nor.

A youlia lady has a Sunday-school class
of rather bright boys averaging' between
p,even and nine years. Recently she re ,
quested each pupil to come on the follow
ing Sunday with some 'passage of Scrip
ture bearing upon love. The lads heeded
the requeit; and in turn recited their
verses bearing' upt.n that popular topic,
such as " Love your enemies," . " Little
children, love ono another," etc. The
teacher said to the boy whose turn came
last, " Well, Robbie, what , ls your verse
Rising, he responded;:' rn
Song of Soloon,-
second chapter; fifth ' . verse—' Stay we
wita flagons, comfort Mc with apples :
for . I am sick of lore.'
menrracrour foi'ttirning out bone
less codfish has been started in Boston.
It is an industry that should be - encour
aged, and it should also be.persuaded to in
clude shad in its prOducts. If it can cap
ture all the shad in all our rivers, remove
the bones, add then replace the nth in the
waters, it will have accomplished agrea
er work in the cause of religion than if it
bad built a cathedral costing ten million
dollars. A boneless shad would not en
courage profane thoughts at the breakfak
table and. make more backsliders in a
month than could be reconverted in a
year.-2 orrittown
Wrriti:li t very short period. Colonel
ThetnaPqA. Scott, who has always enjoy
ed a-reputation for munificent deeds, had
bestowed the sure of *150,000 upon four
off PhiladelPhia's most favored. institu
tions. The Orthopedic . Hospital receive•
$40,000 of this princely gift, while:•;:100.-
Oil Of the amount is divided between the
-.letrenou Medical College and the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania in equal sums. The
gift of he University of Pennsylvania has
enabled the Trustees to endow the chair
f)f Mathematics, riow occupied by Profes
sor Kendall. The like sum to the 3eller
- son Medical College is also to endow a
preifesorship. The remaining te_o,ooo is
given' to the Episcopal Hospital.
A7:youNo Bible student • was a.ked :
" HOW many ix=are there iu youi

number of measures of barley which Boaz

A i;oon story is told of General „Put
nam, the Revolutionary hero„ in Fotney's
'• Anecdotes of Public Men." Ile 'ac
cepted-a challenge and fixed the time,
and as his antagonist approached be wa.
greeted with a shot from Putnam's gun
at thirty rod. - As Putnain was reloading
his iece his adversary approached and
said, "What are you about to do? Is
this the conduct or. an American soldier
and a man of honor?' What am I about
to do?' was the reply of the general ; 4.a
pretty question to put to a man -you in
tend to murder ! lam about to kill you :
and if you do not fight In less time than
it takes old Heath to hang a Tory you
:11C a gone dog.' Of' cOtirse the other
turned and ran away. The second affair
was with a Bash officer who challdnged
him. Putnam accepted,
.tired the; time
and plo.Ce, and
.when 'the Englishman
found him he was seated near' a barrel,
apparently containing powder, smoking
his pipe. The general requested hint to
take a seat on the other side'of the cask,
- :und then set lire to a match communicat
lug with the contents of thejbarrel. - The
- officer looked at the burning fuse and re
tired. As he moved off the general said :
"You are just as brave as I took you to
be ; this is nothing but a-barrel of onions
with a few grains of powder on the t(rp,
to try you by ; but you don't like. the
smell."
rfiE New• York Telfgraia of March :9t
-. says : "A startling discovery was- made
in Hoboken to-day in the post IpOrtClll ex
amination on the death of Mrs. Adolph
- • llouhois, - of 211 Washington street. It
•
was found that she had been literally eat
en alive by triet4uat, from the effects - of
*hieh she died on Sunday evening. Her
husband is ninv sick with the disease, and
'not . expected to live. They were'. both
taken sick shortly' after_eating some - raw
:ham, winch , was purchased of a neighbor
, ingihutcher. Dr. Kudlick, v;ho was the
attending. physician, saift: 'lt is a real
'• ease of tricitinois, and Hi r e result of the
post mortem - can be seen cinder the mi
croscope. I was called to see Mrs. Bon
- _ltois fifteen days ago. I found'her sutler
ing from-cramps and in great pain. She
refused to eat, anti could retain nothing
- on her stomach: I first thought the symp-:
toMs'.first showed cholera, but in a few
days - her ihrihs commenced to -swell and
• -- disclosed evidences of an animal loison.
1 - questioned her closely, and found that
she bad been eating raw ham. and saw
at'once decided that it was tri
. - chime. • I did *all I Could for her. She
gradeally declined and 'died iii great suf
. feting-Suuday night. Her
now
has
tlre'saine iymptoms, anti is now very sick.
' I am in t ho:vs he through it, as
he' is
. a very strong man. _ The. post _moy
-tem satistiefi us that: the disease is trichi
nois in;all its aggravated forms, and that
the *bran was eaten alive. I have had
sixteetneases like this in my twenty-six
years' practice in Hoboken, and this is
the first fatal case._ - It is the result of
eating diseased pork.' "
A DII•PATCH fiom 'Munson, Wisconsin,
dated March 29th, says the Governor of
Wisconsin to-day signed the bill- i l eiehtly
pad by the Legislature prohibiting the
•
practice of treating." The bill provides
that any person itho - shall hereafter ask
another to drink 'at his expense, or any
person consenti . tig to drink at another's
expense, shall be liable toarrestand pun
ment. When the bill was introduced into
the Legislature it was referred to as a sense
'l less and impracticable idea, and nobody
thought - it would become a law. it has
only attracted attention Bike it has
passed. •
Tnr. recebt liquor law of Kamm is so
sweeping in its provisions that the use of
wine even for sacramental purposes is
prohibited. The rectors of several of the
Episcopal churches have resolved to dia.
regard the law in the administration of
the sacrament, as the laws of the Client
allow of no other alternative:

Suggestions of and for the
Season.
The active work of the year, 'has
,flow begun over a large part of the
country, The plough is already in
thousands of fields, au& would be in
many more were it, not for the . sod.
den soil, Never turn - the soil when
so wet that, it will _bake into hard
lumps. The soil. is - too Wet to be
plowed whenever the mould-board is
smeared; does, not 'keep . clean and
bright while passing - through the fur
row. A soil that is late in becoming
dry. enough for the plow, needs
draining. The success of a crop
largely depends ution'the proper pre
paration4 the seed-beds. The soil
most not: only be loose, deep, and
melloW, bdt it should contain all the
essential elements , of plant food, and
these in an available form. This re-
quires thorough tillage -- plowing;
harrowing. ete.--and a good supply
of well-rotted manure or its equiva
lent in some other form. It is folly
to expect - good 'crops Trom a poorly
prepareillsoil,, and one lacking the
food upon which the plants can feed.
There are two general kinds of
farming, with all gradations between
—the extensive land ,the intensive.
The former term is applied to that
style of farming in which a large
area of soil ie expected to produce a,
medium crop. The farms are' large, - .
and the attention given to any single .
here is small, both as to tillage
. and.
.manure.. This kind of farthing in
chides muck of that at present pracq:
Lice& in the Western and far - West
_ern States. It may be the best--at
least the most profitable for'the Ares..
ent,-but in time the soil will become
appreciably exhausted, and a new
kind of dealing with the soil will be
imperative. hotrnsit•f!.' farming'• is
wher' a•large athount of products is.
obtained, from a—sierall ! area ;'t.116 at
tention to each acre• in manure and
tillage being comparatively great.
This is some styled "hiih farming,"
butt' by this is meant, strictly,. the
grLtest gains for the least outlay,
and it may be either extensive or in
tensive. 'Bah have their place in
Our - agriculture, as' each
. pays in its
proper place.
• .The first grain crop to be put into
, the ground is spring wheat,- and this
should be sown as soon as the ground
can be made ready. Out; cifits pro
per district, marked by(climate,
of no use, to_ gro. spring wheat.-
There arc other crops: that are sun: ,
and give, much better returns.' Oats
should come inimediately after sluing
wfieat in lime....eof sowing. • Success
with oats in our hot climate largely
• depends upon early sowing. ,The
- cooler climate of Canada..and New
BrunsWiek is more favorable for oats,
where they are plumper and much
heavier than those grown •in most
parts of the United States. By n'sing
seed from the Northern localities
above mentioned we can groW -heavi
er and 'better oats than when our'
own seed is sown.. The aim should
be to harvest 30 .to 60 bushels per
acre.. This can be obtained by.hav
ing the soil rich and -in good .condi
tion and sown with about: three bush
els of the best seed. Oats are a suc
cessful crop in the faris,Southern
States, as they. can .. be e . sown and
e theirmak growth in winter • and the
t •
crop kept, out of the way of hot
weather. • .
Barley, under favorable conditions,
is a reliable an&profitable crop, and
should not be 'considered simply as
Material for, brewing. There is ino
better grain to
. feed horses; ind when
ground with coin it makes a most
excellent feed for cattle and growing
swine. The two . lowed varieties, yield
more than the six-rowed,' .but brings
somewhat less - in. the market. -The
grain -should% be sown thickly, two
and one-half buShels per acre. Bar-.
ley will succeed in any good, well
prepared soil, but it prefers . a mellow,
clay loam, in good, tilth. • . •
--e Corn planting comes. later in, the
spring, as it requires a warm soil, for
theegiain to germinate, and suffers
from late frosts The time of plant
ing of course varies with the.locality,,
and the soil can be prepared in reach
tress for the settled,
weather. Sod turned under, not too .
deeply, is considered as the best 'for
•corn, but excellent - crops can be
grown upon stubble, provided there
is a good supply of manure given to
take the' place of the Vegetable mat
ter of the rotting grass, 'etc., of the
,
turned sod.
Beets, including Mange's,
.
he put in very early. Therdis*uch i
difference of opinion as to the advan-
.tage of soaking 'and . sprouting the
see:ls
.before sowing them. If; thus
treated they should be - carellull3;•!
watched; and be sown as soon as the
Minute germ, or sprout, appears on a
few of them., Drying with fine. gyp
sum' (land plaster) will - Make the
,t
sowing easy. This treatment will en
sure , quick germination, and the . -
•
young plants will get the start of the
weeds. • As soon as the plants.are up
sufficiently for the rows to be . seen;
run a hand cultivator between thern - 1
and within an inch or so of the plants.
This will• leave a •strip next to the
rows to be treated witlihand-hocs..;
Use a horse-hoe for most of tlAwl'atO c
cultivation. The manufacture of beet,-
sugar. promises- success, provided .
enough roots are giown, in any one
locality_ to make it profitabletoC:eet
the necessary buildings and. machine
ry for extracting the sugar: 'This
needs co-operation among the farm-'
ers thcmielves, and between them
and the manufacturers; upon this the
success of . beet spgar Waking in our,
country depends..
Farmers : have so thoroughly learn
ed how , to manage the potato-beetle
u
that it is not necessary to plant early
with a view :to escape its ravages.
But it is well to plant early, especial
ly if the crop is,to be sold; and there
is a ready market. The. earliest pays
the bet, and the, one who is first gets
•the dream of the market. The Early
! Rose still'holds its rank among the
most desirable varities. •
The most essential crop upon a
farm is grass. The better the system
of farming the more important will
grass become, both in its own value
and the good etre& it has : upon the
soil and' the crops that are to follow
it._ Our farmers have bot, given prop
er attention to the study 01 the differ
entgrasses and the. soils best fitted'
for each. Meadows and pastures, to
do their best, 'often,/ need -a' little
stimulating fertilizer -Tirolmndred
pounds of Guatfo, or or - NitTate of
Soda, often : . more tliaa 'double the
crop, and returns
_a large profit on
the coil.. Improved grais lands mean
more milk, cheese, butter, and beef,
arid a fain with a rich, never-failing
permanent pasture is one where live
stook will thrive, and the owner of it
is sure to baprosperotts. Look well
to the grass land.
Cows with calf_. should receive
special care both as to feed and hand
ling. Good hay is 'toe best feed ;
•
over-feeding must be - avoided, as
with higiPbred cows, espec ially, there
