Farm, Garden and Household, Raising Rammer Calves. The Record and Farmer nays s The hot months of summer are the worst of the whole year fc r young calves, partly because of the unavoidable heat, and partly because they have not suitable rjuarters at that season. The heat itself, under favorable oircumstanCGB, is sufficiently prostrating ; but when the poor little things are shut p in a close, unventilatod stable, obliged to stand and lie on wet straw or floors, if not in manure and filth, there is no food that will make them thrive. The dis comfort, not to say suffering, which they endure, neutralities the effect of the food aud care (or want of care) they have. A real thrifty calf cannot be had unless it is comfortable and contented. We like to see them lie down in a good clean bed of straw, and draw a deep, long breath as if it were a luxury after taking their milk. They are then in the right condition.bodily and mentally, to grow. Sot only that, they will grow in share. The muscle and the fat will be placed where it should be, and the brines will be symmetrically developed. The same animals swo iting in a stink ing stable, dreading to lie down in the Wet and forced to stand in it, even though they have liberal feed, will grow leggy and coarse . boned, the back will roach, the neck will drop, the rump will slope, and the belly will sway. In stead of a plump, shapely calf there will be a lank, misshapen animal. After care may correct and overcome to some extent the bd results, but never fully. Their quarters must be airy, cool, and dry. A. shed open to the north or well ahadod, with a floor of very dry earth, and a yard free from mud, is as good a plnoe as they usually get. At all events they must be comfortable. Their feed Bhould be regulur in quality, quantity, and time. Good feed always pays best. Excess is to be avoided. The " little pull-backs tell on the growth, condi tion, and future character of the calf. One good calf is worth more than two poor ones to sell and more thau half a dozen poor ones to raise. Cattle coming from good calves that have had their good qualities developed by care and feed, make a more economical and protitable use of tho food they consume, the young the.y produce are worth more, and tneyare more readily mar ketable p.'c more remunerative prices. Kltcllrn Genis. The other day Mary was ironing aud asked fot a piece of sand -paper to rub her irons on. I was astonished that I never thought of that before ; it is so nice, removes every bit of starch or anything else aud makes them so smooth. One girl taught me that old corsets make the best stove cloths. J u&t one half at a time is a convenient size. The are ready made and much better, when unfelded, to take hold of anything with than a mado holder, and much easier to wash. Just throw them In with the brown towels, as many as you happen to get during the week, and they come out clean aud ready to use again. Another girl pours hot water on the blades only of steel knives, and they wipe easily and do not need dry ing. Anothor one told me that the bebt way to keep hams and dried beef was to pack it in dry salt. We have tried a1 i "p-'veral Jears witn perfect success. An old salt barrel is convenient. Set it in some ccol, dry place ; put quite a thick layer of salt in the bottom ; then pack in the hams, using tho pieces of dried beef, if you have any, for chink ing ; cover with salt, then hams and salt again, till the barrel is full. There is not the least danger of insects if the hams are smoked and the beef dried and put away early, before the flies come around ; and they are much nicer to handle th.au when pnt up in ashes or anything 0f that kind. To Stop hs Ravage of Mollis. Camphor will not stop the ravages of moths in carpets after they have com menced eatinsr. Then thev oav no re gard to the presence of camphor, cedar or tobacco. A good way to kill them is o tuKe a coarse cra.-n towel and ring it out of clean water. Spread it smoothly on the carpet, then iron it diy with a good hot iron, repeating the operation on all suspected places, and those least used. It does not injure the pile or color ot tue carpet in the least ; it is not necessary to press hard, heat aud steam being the agents, and they do the worn enectuaiiy on worms and eggs, Then the camphor will doubtless pre vent future depredations of the miller ttdfr to Kill Grasshoppers. Reports of Western railway trains stopped by jrrasshoppers are apt to be taken by Eastern people as samples of Western humor rather than as state ments of actual faot. Similar incre dulity was manifested oh the other side of the AtlAfctlo, a few days ago, when telegram came from Algiers, telling of the delay of a train from Oran, six hours, from the same cause, namely, the accumulation of grasshoppers on the rails. But it was no joke. The grasshoppers are as great a pest there as they are in some parts of the Far West, and just now they threaten the ntter destruction of the 'growing crops over considerable area. Many plahu baVe been tried for their suppression, the most successful, ao oording to a circular of instruction lately issued by General Ohaney to the generals of division and prefect of Al geria, being that employed in Cyprus. By this plan the attack is made neither on the eggs nor on tho ftilly developed insect, as ptacticed elsewhere, but dur ing the intermediate or wingless period of their development, a stage begin ning about a month after the eggs are hatched, and lasting three or four weeks, during which the "crickets" wander about in compact masses and are easily taken in V-elmped traps open to the line of maroh. The sides of the traps are made with strips of silk a hundred yards long and two or thiee feet wide tirrnly attached to poles set in the ground. tflis bottom edges of these walls of Biik are banked with earth so that the crickets cannot crawl under them, and the upper edges are Waxed or bordered with oiled siik, which pre vents thoir climbing over. As they have no wings to escape With, they are forced to mass themselves at the apex of the system (as it is called) where they tumble into a trench edged with plates of zinc, which offers no foothold, no t.hn.f. t.hnv nrn nfTunf unllv tmntiml When the trench is full the insects are i W0Ha tl,B Jal,anC8e wel'8 victorious, and ueaily covered with earth, and the system is moved on to continue the work of des truction elsewhere. Upwards of 7,000 cubic yards of grasshoppers were thus destroyed iu Cyprus in a single season. With the conversion of our Western plains into farm lands it is becoming more and more necessary to combat the grasshopper plague on a grand scale. Our farmers will do well to profit by me experience ot tue iast. SUMMARY OF NEWS. A Unit in tho Weekawken bit Docks-containing 15,000 barrels of oil was struck by light ning.

At the cattle yards in East Buffalo there is an immense sheep house, capable of holding twenty thousand sheep. It is situated some distance from the railroad, and is reached by a somewhat circuitous route, through various streets and avenues of the yard. When cattle trains arrive in the night. the pheep are unloaded and driven to the house. Now this was somewhat tronblesome, until the introduction of "Billy," tha subject of this sketch. liilly is a fine wether. He is not a Cots wold, nor a Southdown, nor a Merino, Indeed, I am afraid that his early pedi gree was saciiy neglected. JJnt for all that, he is a most intelligent sheep. When the sheep are all unloaded. Billy, with bell on his neck, is placed at the head of the flock. He leads them through the lone avenues to the house and into the pens, and as the last one enters the pen, Uilly slips out the gate, ana returns to his own stall and bule of hay. All this is done better than it could be by several men. The story of Billy " reminds us of another Billy, who. on seeing his shadow, through one of the large, plate glass windows, of a city dry goods store, stopped to give him a bunt, and as lie went through the window, into the salesroom of the astonished in mates, he led every sheep behind him. till the room was completely filled with wool aud live mutton, much to the dis comforture of all the parties concerned. Asiatic Locusis, The locust is an insect which,-in the east, is often five or six inches long, and of the thickness of a man's thumb. Its head is shaped like that of a horse (Joel n. 4). The month is large, and fur nished with four incisive teeth, which traverse each other like soissors. The noise made by a flock of them in eat ing, is compared by Joel (ii. 5) to the crackling sound of fire anions: stubble. and by modern travelers to the rattling of hailstones. The prophetic writings of the Old Testament aDouna with allu sions to this insect, as one of God's most dreadful scourges. All travelers in the east speak of the ravages of this insect as quite terrific The swarms are often a mile in length, darkening the air as they pass, and forming a layer of several inohea when they settle on the earth. Nothing can impede their march they fill np the deepest trenohes, extin guish fires, and climb walls. All ver dure disappears, and the country looks as if burnt np with nre i-bxoa, x. Detecting Adulteration In Flour. The substances with which flour is most frequently adulterated are: Plaster of Paris, the dust of burned bones, pea or bean meal, and potato flour. An easy general mode of testing tho purity of flour is to squeeze it in the hand. The cohesivcuess of wheat flour is very great, and consequently the lump so squeezed in the hand will be a longer time before it breaks and falls if of wh eaten flour than if the flour be adulterated. Plaster of Paris, dust of burned bones and potato flour are ail so much heavier than wheaten flour that adulteration by them mny be easily de tected. A sack which will contain two hun dred weight of wheat flour will hold three of potato flour, so that should the flour be adulterated with any umount of potato flour it may be detected by means ot its weight, should pea or bean meal be mixed with the flour, it may be detected, if in any considerable quantity, by pouring boiling water upon a cupful of the flour, or by toast ing a piece of bread made of it, the odor oi the pea or bean being sure to rise while the meal or bread is hoi. Adulteration by means of tho flour of inferior grains is more difficult of de tection, but may be ascertained by pouring upon a spoonful of flour a little pure spirits of hartshorn. If the flour be wholly oi wheat, the hartshorn will render it of a yellow color, but if it be adulterated with other corn, the hartshorn will turn it to a pale brown, and if it be adulterated with pea or bean flour, it will become a darker brown. Adulteration by means of potato flour may be detected by means of acids. Take a spoonful and pour upon it a little nitric acid ; if the flour be of wheat, it will change to an orange yellow ; if wholly of potato flour, the color would not be altered, but the flour formed into a tenacious jelly ; if, therefore, the flour be adulterated with potato flour, it will be difficult to decide. Agaiu, take a spoonful of the flour. and pour upou it a little muriatio acid ; if the flour be of pure wheat, it will be changed to a deep violet color, without odor ; but if potato flour be mixed in it, it will then have an odor like that of rushes. One of the ew Cadets. Hon. James B. Beck has appointed to the United States Naval Academy, at Annapolis, Hugh K. Ayres, of Frankfort, Ey., of whom the following incident is told : " Two years ago Hug'j, who was then not quite thirteen yearn of age, was crossing the bridge which connects North and South Frankfort, with his cousin, a youth two years older than himself. Carpenters were at work re pairing the bridge, and a plank near the south end, between the abutment and the first pier, was out of place in the northern footway. The elder of the two boys was in front, a little in ad vance of Hugh, and not discovering the aperture in the bridge, stepped into it, and fell headlong into the river, forty six feet below. The workmen, aud several other persons who witnessed the catastrophe, were paralyzed with alarm at the occurrance, and took no Bteps to the boy's rescue. But Hugh, without hesitating an instant, ran with all speed from the bridge, past the toll-house, to a gate which led to the rear, and, thence made his way to the brink of the river, in which at a distance of twenty feet from shore, his cousin was struggling, having sunk twice. So dangerous did any effort at resoue seem to those on the bridge above, that the shouted to Hugh not to go in, but without heeding their remonstrances, he plunged into the water, swam to the drowning boy, and brought him safely to shore. says : pa- Worse than tbe Bugs, The Rockland (Me.)

The modus operandi was to throw the powder into the seams and crevices with a small bellows. The fiowder was nothing but corrosive anb imate, and the man slept in his bunk with the powder Bifting down npon him.

Up to this time nine hunters and four other mou have been killed, soalped and mutilated. One man was murdered and scalped only six miles from town, while on his return from a trip to Camp 3upply. After killing him they took his stock. He leaves a wife and six ohildren here. Their fiendish cruelly has no bounds. A hunter by the name of Dudley was onptared the other day. They lied him to a wagon wheel, tore out his finger and toenails one by one, scalped him from ear to ear, cut his hands off at the wrist, and then staked him to the ground with picket pins driven tiirough his breast. There were eye-witnesses to this savage deed. One of their boldest movements waB au attack on the trading posts on the Canadian. A band about 200 strong attacked those places. One is a strong tocitade and the other is made ot eavy adobe walls. There wore only eighteen men inside to do the fighting, and the most of these hunters, who are brave men and dead shots. Two whites were killed outside the walls and one inside. Eleven dead Indians were left ou the ground. Desperate efforts were made by the redskins to get their fallen warriors away, but the hunters kept up too deadly a nre on them and they had to leave them where they lay. Doubt less many of tho wounded they carried away afterwards died. Before leaving they killed all the stock outside of the stockade. It appears that the rise of the Indians is a concerted matter among the various tribes. Uoutiuued repoits of the mur der of unfortunate t-ettles and their families are made ull through the sec- ions in the vicinitf of tho Indian reser vations. Who is the laziest man ?

A beautiful finish can, it is said, be given to arti cles to be starched by taking one-fourth of a ponnd of starch, and working it over and kneading it with a little water. then placing five or six pints of water in a pan and adding to this a very small quantity ef powdered borax, a pieoe of sugar and a fragment of white wax about the size of a hazel nut, and heat ing the whole sufficiently. This water is then to ba added to the starch, stir ring it continually and mixing the two together until the whole is as thick as is convenient for application. If the articles are to be made quite stiff, the strength of the starch may be increased a . ai m i i wo or inree ioia. whether acute or clironM. In yonn or old, as well as in Cholera and Cholera Infantum, the "vmptoms of which are nevere vomiting and purging, feeb'0 pvlse, with cold or clammy skin, my Extract of Smart-Weed fill give almost immediate relief and speedily eftect a cure. All authors writing upon Smart-Weed speak particularly about a dose of it producing a warmth and peculiar tingling sensation throughout the system. This is especially the case when Extract is given, and indicates a perfect arousing of the whole system, as if front inaction and slclop, and resembles a shock of olootricity only that it is more lasting in effect. The whole system and Its various functions are aroused to perform their normil fttnntinns by Its ftlG''trieal elfect upon the nervous system. SelicO, too, its preat and mastorly control over Itheumatie and Neuralgio Affections, for which it is particularly advised by medical authors and iu which it baa per formed remarkable onres. It should be used In tbee oases both externally and internally. Being a great Dlsphofetlo, or Sweating Medi cine, aids greatly in relieving pain, but, in dependently of that, it possesses ireat anodyne or Soothiiig properties, that render it far ahead of any " Fain-Killer " fso called), "Instant ltolef," "Goldon Belief," or any other pain remedy that has ever boon offered to the public. Besides, it is perfectly harmless, which is not the case with many preparations patented and put up for i-afe by Quacks, " Indian Doctors," and those knowing nothing about tho delicate and intricate structure of the human syntom, nor the action of medicines upon it. My Extract of Smart-Weed is not a secret Patent Medicine, no patent having been aekeil for or obtained upon it, and its in gredients are no secret all that I claim is that, as an educated and skiled analytical and practical OhomiHt, I have duvisod a superior process for bniiiniiR out and oljtainniir the most valuable properties of the plants from which my compound j-.xtract is made. Tins 1 have done only after great expense in erecting machinery for grinding, pressing and percola ling. I wish particularly to call public attention to uiv Extract of Smart-Weed as a mrnedy for all Colds, Febrile and Inflammatory Attacks. Nor can I too highly extol it as a remedy for Inflammation of the Kidneys and Bladder. Gravel, and to break up the cold stage of Fever and Ague, or Chills and Fover. As an internal application, it is a perfect Tanacoa, if there ever was one. No family can afford to bo one day without it in the house. Bosides it is equally as good for the horse aH tho man. It subdues Inflammation of all kinds. Used as a gargle aud applied freely externally to the throat, it is a sovereign remody in Diphtheria and Quincy or Inflamma tion of the Tonsil Glands. To all Wounds, Braises. Sprains, Burns, Beo Stings, Insect and Snake llitcs, Frost Bites. Chilblsins, Caked Breast, Swollen Glands, Bheumatism, and. in short, to any and all ailments, whothcr af flicting man or beast, requiring a direct appli cation, either to allay inflammation or sooth pain, or both, Extract of Smart-Weed cannot be excelled. I do not extol this memeine as a cure-all, nor is it necessary to mention all the diseases Herein it will be found to eirect cureB, as I have said enough to indicate its properties ami the intelligent will at once see wherein its use may properly bo extended, ltecollect it is sold under a positivo guarantee. If, afier using two-thirds of the contents of the bottle. yon are not satisfied with it return the bottle to mo and your ruonoy will bo promptly re funded. Allow me to say, in conclusion, that. mv Compound Kxtract or Smart-Weed Is a safe remedy in all cases, which cannot be said of many medicines put up for sale to tlio peo ple, no liarmless is it, unit it may be given in small doses of 5 to 10 drops in milk to infants for Colic, and will be fur more effectivo and mucu safer thau any aootuing hprup ' or " Cordial " ever put up. and w . lot injure the child as thev do.

Botanists as J'olygonum I'unc latum, is a woll-known, very common aud modest little plant found growing in ditches, low grounds, among ruumsn ana aDout nrooics aud water-courses, flowering in August and Septemhcr. In mauy sections of tlus country it is a deservedly highly esteemed family reme dy. The Indians also make great use of this plant for the cure of various diseases. lint neither the Indians nor the whites learned one-tenth of the value of this moiled little weed, as they had no method of extracting its irtues witnout tlie application or neat, wiucu destroys most of its properties, aud usually made a tea from the dried herb, that had been kept on hand for a long time until it had lost most of its medical proportion. No educated chemist haa ever tried to make an analysis of the plant and produce au extract from it upon scientific principles, by a cold process, until I. having become convinced of the wondorful medical virtues of this httlo weed, investigated its properties and mado an extract from the fresh herb, by a cold process using no heat at but briugiug out its luices, oils ana volatile properties complete and unimpaired. If this remedy hag heretofore been valuabld, when prepared iu the most crude manner, from tlio long dried herb and by the applica tion of heat, that destroyed so much of its virtues, I reasoned that it must, when properly prepared, by a cold process au-1 from the rreslily dried herb, prove a wonderliuly eltica cious aud potent remedy for human suffering. Aud I can assure the peoplo, upon my honor, as a professional man, that in its use, aince thus preparing it, my most sanguine expecta tions have been more than realized. I have found it to contain medicinal properties which steeping in water could not bring out at all, as they are resinous principles. With my Ex tract, containing all these medical properties unimpaired, I have been eablod to produce most astonishing remedial effects. Ity much study, a largo experience iu prescribing this and other medicines, and very close observa tion, l nave been enabled to compound and combine with the simplo Extract of Hmart- vteea extracts or oilier medicinal norua ana roots, that greatly improve its power and ue- iumors, ooin as au internal ana external reme dybesides they so flavor and modify it an to remove its pungent, smarty tasto, and render it n phjamut remedy for both adult, and chil dren. The greatest difficulty that I experience in tbe way of introducing this most valuable remedy to the public is the fact that Smart Weed is such a common aud unpretending looking little herb that people are apt to think that it cannot possess any great or valuable medical properties. Had "I prepared my Ex tract of Smart-Weed, put it np and labeled it wun some groat name, ami told the people that the herbs ot which it was comnosed were collected in Africa by the Arabs, carried acrons the Sahara Dexert "oa the backs of camels, and brought acrot-g the Atlantio Ocean for my special use, and that itg ingredients were therefore very expensive. I have no doubt that some would have been thereby inspired with greater confidence in it. lint i prefer to deal honestly with the people aud tell them that the chief ingredient of my Compound Extract is me modest nttle plant seen growing iy tne roadside, in all parts of North Amorica, and known aa Smart-Weed. I believe that God hag caused to grow, in each climate and re gion, those mediciiiaP plants best calculated for the cure of the diseases that prevail in the section of country where those plants are found that " the leaves were for the healing of the nations," and that the fewer far-fetched remedies we employ the better, if we would thoroughly investigate and understand those we have at home. Ho far as Smart-Weed has been employed by the medical profession, it has won golden opinions, notwithstanding the fact that heretofore thev have had only a very imperfect preparation of it to use, owing to heat beiitij always employed in extracting its properties. A celebrated medical author says : " A friend of ours had a child dangerously ill wan Summer Complaint, lie bad employed a great variety of the usual means for relief but ail appeared unavailing. The child waa finally given Smart-Weed and it was entirely success ful. It arrested the vomiting and purging in a short time, aud without the aid of other medi cine entirely restored the little patient." As a remedy for Dysentery (or Itloody Flux) I have never Been my Extract of Smart-Weed equaled, yet I have used all the most modern aud ap proved medicines usually employed iu that disease. The Smart-Meed in rendered still more efficacious in all Bowel Complaints. Cramps aud Pains in the stomach, bv reason of the Jamaioa Ginger, whioh. with other valuable ingredients, is compounded with the Smart Weed in makiug my Extract hence the name (Jompound Extract of Smart-Weed. The Gin ger aud other ingredients not only add greatly to the value of the Smart-Weed as a remedy for internal administration and render it more Sleasant to take by imparting an agreeable avor to it, but alao auhinoa- its value aa an ex. ternai application, in all eatei of Diarrhoea CllW.mik'.JI Oir-TlSW WltlK PA IK . nrn so other exute ha hiriuc woroi lj tat atomic;!.
