FARM ANDJIOUSEHOLD.
The Vditt of Stones in the Soil.
Tbe Gardener' t Chronicle, one of the
1 pet of .tbe English journals devoted to
farming and horticulture, hai an interest
ing article on this 8ubjrct, from which
we take tbe following paragraphs :
Many beginners in gardening, and they
fire legion nowaday seem to consider an
absence of stones to be absolutely ne
cessary to the good condition ef the soil.
Hy picking the stones off flower-beds
year after year, tbe surface of the soil
becomes so fine that after heavy rains it
looks like a bed of cement defying tbe
ndtnission of air or water. Warm show
ers, which are so e?s utial at some sea
eons of the year to tLe well-being of
plants, never reach their roots, but runs
on to t:.e sides oi me oea. llouria up
iu this cold mortar in winter, the roots
rot and the plnts die. in dry weather
the soil bnkes and cracks, thns literally
lacerating or eiarving the roots at a time
when n fill work ought to be 'going on
in tbe plant. The same idea prevails in
connection with tbe soil for pot plants.
Those who begin to grow a few things in
pots fi;?t procure a eieve, and they look
on eveiy bit of mateiial which will go
through a quarter inch mesh as unfit for
their greenhouse plants. A continuance
of such practice is the source of many
failures among those who really love
gardening and cherish their plants, but
who do not consider that they are thus
counteracting their own wishes In
uvihy gardens the rake has for a century
pat been combing off the surface stones,
which exHrii'nce shows, serves to keep
the plants in health. Should not the
stones be lather buried than taken from
the s..il ? Tbe good results attending the
trrncbing of old gardens are doubtless
!ue to the bringing up of a fresh supply
of these materials, which afterwards
drain snJ sweeten the dark, sour soil.
I'erhops, however, it is in the bedding
put (fepKitinent that the value of this
material is greatest. Tbe shortness of
the time plants nsed for this purpose oc
copy their positions prevents them from
srndiug down their roots to any depth in
search of such surfaces to coil against.
A few stones or biickhats might well be
placed al such a depth in the soil that
tlie root a f the plants will soon find
t-iem. It is heje that quick growth and
abundant flowers are wanted in a short
lime, and to attain this a. deep, rich soil,
with plenty of stones mixed in it, is re
commend. This ill not only encourage
warmth at the roots, but drain the soil in
wet seasons, and will moreover serve to
keep the roots rLmp in dry ones, for in
dry seasons it may be remarked that the
roots in deep soil, when in contact with
stones, is tnowt.
The principle here commended has
been r.cted on with great success in the
case of snb tropical plants in Bottersea
Park, and there seems no doubt that the
stones, especially of somewhat porous
nature (such as brickbat?,) are beneficial,
by absorbing and radiating beat, by en-
sur:i:g drainage and aeration, and moisture
to th roots, and thus obviating the evil
till1 els of sudden and excessive changes.
Conis in Horses' Feet.
In the American Agricultural for
July we find the following : Corns are
not a disease, but result from injmies to
the sole of the foot. When the sole is
pared thiu, a blow from a stone which
ttnkes it injures tbe sensitive portion of
the foot which should be protected by
the sole, and effusion of blood or scrum
occurs, whicli presses upon the bruised
part aud causes lameness. A red or dis
colored spot is eeen. This is supposed
to be a corn, and is pared away until it
bleeds, and instead of good being done
there is much evil If the shoe is also
improperly. put on, so that the bearing is
unequal, pa;ts of the sale become bruised
with the same rreult. A remedy is to
foment tbe eule with, hot water, or to
ptuff the foot with tow, which should be
soaked in hot water repeatedly. If a
badly fitted choe is the cause, it should
be removed before the fomentations are
applied, and refitted with an ereu hear
ing all round, bnt especially at the heel,
when the lameness will soon disappear.
If the shoes were always will fitted, aud
made long at the heel, and the sole and
frog not pared down until no protection
to the foot is left, there would be fewer
lame horses.
Tanning and Dyeing Sheep Skins.
In answer to a question, a correspon
dent of the Sckn'ific American says :
Wash the pelts iu warm water, and ro
move all fleshy matter from the innpr
surface, then cleau the wool wilh soft
eoap, and rinse the sop thoroughly out.
Secondly, apply to the flesh side, the fol
lowing mixture for each pelt: Common
salt aud ground alum, one quarter pound
of each, and half an ounce of borax.
Dissolve the whole in one quart of hot
water. When cool enough to bear the
hand, add rye menl to make a thin paste,
and spread the mix: are on the flesh side
of the pelt. Fold the pelt lengthwise,
and let it remain two weeks in an airy
and shady place, then remove the paste
from the surface ; wash aud dry. When
neaily dry, scrape the flesh side with a
knife, working the pelt until it becomes
thoronghly soft. A beautiful blue may
be i'nparted to the wool by using the fol
lowing recipe : Add a wine-glassful of
solphnric acid to a gallon of water. Put
iuto the eolutiou a tablespoonful or more
of imperial blue, regulating the quantity
of dyestuff to the shade of blue required.
Put in. the pelts and boil for ten minutes
After boiling, the pelt will need working
,-igain, to make it soft
"The Graphic" Balloon.
In answer to numerous inquiries on
the subject, we give the following details
as to the dimensions, miterial, outfit, & ,
of tbe balloon to be used in the great
Transatlantic voyage. They are from
specifications made by Mr.Donoldson.
There will be two balloons' the largest
of which will be 318 feet in circumference,
100 feet in diameter and 110 feet in
height. When inflated and ready to
start the extreme height of the apparatus
from the crown of the balloon to the
keel of the life boat, will be 160 feet.
The great balloon will require 4,316
yards of cloth. The material is . nn
bleached sheeting of a thick, close
quality. The crown of the balloon will
he double for a distance of fifty feet
from the top, with 150 wards of the same
material, and a third thickness will be
added, bleaclit'd, of which 250 yards are
required.
There will be 14,030 yards, or eight
miles of sewing, in which 10, 137, GOO
stitches will be made. The stitching is
now being performed by twelve seam
stresses. The thread used is silk and
cotton, the top spool being silk.
The valve of the balloon will be 3 feet
fn diameter, and made of Sp.iuieh cedar,
with a rubber coated clapper closing on
a brass plate. The valve fixtures and
top of the balloon are the essential parts
of the apparatus, ami are being construc
ed with special care to guard against
any accident or derangtmeut.
The network will be com pored of
three strand tarred rope, known as "mnr
lin." The width of the net will be 212
meshes, and iu breaking strength will be
53,300 pounds. Five hundred pounds
of marlin will be nsed. From the net
ting 53 ropes, jj inches in diameter, of
Manilla, jvill connect with the coucen
. rri -11 ,
uaiiug rings, i nese ropes win e.-.cn lie
90 feet in length. The concentrating
rings will bo three in number, to guard
against breakage, and will be each 14
inches iu diameter, each riug being of
wood iron bound. These rings will sus
tain the car, life boat ti ailing rope, aud
will bear the straiu when the anchor is
thrown nut iu landing. The concentra
ting rings twenty-four Manilla liucb
ropes, each 32 feet long, will depend
and form the frame for an octagonal
shaped car. They will be kept in place
by light hoops, made of csh. The lower
ropes will be couected with net work,
aud over the network at. the bottom of
the car a light pine floor will be laid
loosly, so that it can be thrown out if
required. The car will be covered with
duck, of which fifty yards will he need
ed. Attached to the side of tbe car
will be a light iron windlass, from which
the boat and trail rope can be raised and
lowered as dceired. From a pully at
tached to the concentrating rings a
heavy Manilla-rope will fall down
through the car, thence to a ' sling, at
tached to which will be the life boat.
This boat will beof the most approved
and caicful construction. It will have
water tight compartments, sliding keel,
and will be so made that it will be self
righting. The boat will be provided
with a complete outfit of oars and sales,
and to it will be lashed instruments,
guns, lines, and provisions for thirty
days, all in water tight cases.
The trial rope, by which the Aeronaut
can maintain any desired altitude with
out resorting to ballast, will be of Man
illa rope, 1 'ich thick, and 1,000 feet
long.
carrier-pigeons will be taken along, and
despatched at intervals on the route with
intelligence of the progress of the expe
dition. The smaller balloon will be 40 feet in
height and 34 feet in diameter, and will
be made from 403 yards of "Manchester
Mills." Its netwoik will consume 20
pounds of 40 thread cotton cord and 6
pounds of Italian hemp It will be at
tached to the concentrating wings of the
large balloon, aud will be used as may
be required to test the upper currents or
assist in feeding tbe large balloon.
The balloons will be coated with a
varnish made of boiled linseed oil, bees
wax, and benzine, and of these ingredi
ents 1,000 gallons will be used.
The car will be fully provided with
istruments, provisions, & , independently
of the boat. It will be so constructed
that it can be taken apart piecemeal and
disposed of as ballast. It will carry
about 5,000 pounds of ballast, which
will consist of bags of sand, each care
fully weighed and marked. Among
the instruments to be carried in the car
there will be a galvanic Jiattery, with
an alarm, two baromoters, two chronom
eter watches, a compound thermometer,
a wet and dry bulb thermometer, a hy
groneter, coinponer, qnadrant, chart,
parachutes with fire-balls attached, and
so arranged as to explode when striking
the water, so as to indicate the direction
traversed ; marine glasses, two vaeum
tubes, a lim6 stove, &c. A number of
The capacity of the great balloon will
bo 600,000 cubic feet of gas, but it will
be inflated with but 400.000 cubict feet,
which, at the height of one mile and
three-quarters, will expand sufficiently
to fill the balloon. The lifting power of
illuminating gas is about 35 pounds to
the 1,000 feet, so that the balloon will
have a lifting capacity of 11,600 pounds.
The pressure will be 1J pounds to the
square inch.
The weight may be summed np as fol
lows :
Pound.
Balloon 4,000
Net and ropes 800
Car 100
Boat 1,000
Dray rope 600
Anchor and grapnels 300
Sundries 300
7,100
Then 4,500 pounds will be allowed for
passengers and ballast N. Y. Graphic.
Captain Jaci's Cave.
The Boston Tranrcr'pt publishes an
extsact from a-private letter giving an
account of the first visit of a w Lite
man to Captain Jack's cave :
" I directed Bogns Charley to take the
lead to the famous caves which no white
man had ever visited, and to see which
was the object of my expedition. Bogus
was in doubt whether he could find the
trail, it had been so long since he was
there some. two years. But I told him
to make the trial, and we start d off iu
single file, Bogus on the b ad, then my
self. C . J. and the enlisted men. I had
a carbine, C and Jpistols, and the sol
iliirs Spriugfield breech-loaders ; Charley
had no weapons, so if ho meant treach
ery he would be the first victim. It was
intensely hot, and after tumbling over
locks for four hours, Charley came to a
bait, saying he had lost the trail. I or
dered a rest of a few miuutcs, aud then
told Chailey to try again.
''Ye were then almost to the middle of
the lava beds, which were from twenty
to twenty-five miles long by from seven
to nine miles wide that is to say, we
were about four miles from our starling
point in a straight line, though we had
traveled about seven. In about half an
hour Charley, as he raised a crest, dis
covered a juniper tree, which was the
mark he had been locking out for, aud
informed me that the caves were within
three hundred yards of that tree, which
latter was distant from ns about five hun
dred yards. Wc made the last quarter
stretch in a hurry, and sure enough there
was "a "cave. -Charley descended first,
and then turned to me, as I began to de
scend, and said, ' Leave your gnu.'. I
g,ve my carbine to one of the men, and
descended about thirty feet. Charley and
I proceeded to the mouth of a cavern
and as I went in Charley said, 'You first
man ever come here.'
"I entered the first cave, which I found
to be 300 feet long by 45 feet wide and
30 to 35 feet high, lighted from the top
by two holes in the roof extending to
the snrface of the ground ; there were
side. galleries aud tunnels running from
the floor to the outside surface of the
ground in all directions. Eagle nests
adorned the ceilings, and mountain sheep
tracks dotted tbe dust which lay several
inches thick on the bottom of the cave.
Stalactites bung on the sides. This was
the first cave and the largest. After
passing through this, we came iuto day
light again, into Brother crater, on the
opposite side of which was a hole large
enough for a man to conviently enter.
Charley went in first, and finding it dark
we got some sage brush to burn for light
As we had no means of keeping a light
and the bottom of cave Xo. 2 was strew
with large rofiks, difficult to climb over
and among, we went as far as we could
and then turned hick. The third cave
was opposite the entrance to No. 1, and
upon examination presented the same
features as the others. The first cave
entered was the largest. We then turn
ed our faces lakeward, found our traps
unmolested during oar absence, and had
diuner."
Uysterions Disappearance.
I'RuBAELti ML'HDF.R.
Last Wednesday Mr. W. II. Patter
son, a farmer living near Yellow Springs,
Blair Co., left home in company with two
meu, (stringers) who had been harvest
ing for him, to come to Huntingdon for
money. The three arrived here and dur
ing the day Mr. Patterson was seen pay
iug off one of them. In the evening
they all toot the traiu west and traveled
as far as Petersburg where one of the
strangers got off, took the stage for Yel
low Springs, rode within two miles of
the latter place where he paid Lis fair
aud got off the stage. Nothing has
been heard of Mr. Patterson and tbe
other stranger since it is not known
whether they got off the train at that
place or went on, aud the most diligent
inquiry and search has failed to throw
any light on the mysterious affair. On
Saturday last J. M. Patterson, a brother
of the missing man visited town in search
of bis brother but was compelled to re
turn without learning rnything. Yester
day morning Mr. Chamberlain, at whose
house the parties stopped, received a
letter from J. M Patterson notifying Lira
that they bad heard nothing further of
the missing brother.
The missing marfis a very steady ac
tive, farmer who sticks very close to bus
iness and was very anxious to get home
Wednesday night because, as he told Mr.
Chamberlain he "had one hundred and
sixteen acres of gra'n standing on shock
which must be taken in." Humor bas
it that the stranger whs got off the stage
near Yellow Springs was seen the next
morning beading for the railroad and
that he told some one that be had shot at
a man but did not know whether he had
hit him, at the same time exhibiting a
seven shooter with two of the chambers
empty. Both strangers had seven shoot
ers with them when in Huntingdon.
The affair looks very much like a mur
der for money and our police are hard at
work on the case. Muce excitement ex
ists in the neighborhood of Yellow
Springe and several searches have been
made, in vain, for the missing man
