KIBSOILINO. Subsoiling land means to looneo tbe subsoil, but Dot to turn it up. Af ter turning a furrow as deep as the crop to be planted or sown require, tben another team follows with the eubsoil plow, and loosens the lower soil six to eight inches deep, and thus leaves it: and so the two teams con tinue to plow until the field is finish ed. What advantage is subsoiling? is the question that 1 bear aeked. Twenty-five years ago the agricultu rl theorists contended that farmers would have to subsoil for every crop, r soon be behind the times; but now ve hear but little on the subject The lact is that it doesnt pay to subsoil land, and that settles the question, as few farmers can afford to employ two teams on the same Uod, and plow in a day onlr as much as one team can do. There is, however, some advantage in some seasons by Kubsoilinir. one of which is that crops will withstand a severe drouth bet ter on subeoiled land, than on that which is not subsoiled. This is about all that can be said in favor of the stem, and the second year the land is about as hard and compact !elow as it was before the subsoil plow was nsed. In brief I don't ad vise any farmer to subsoil bis and in anv case. Here is what a man iays who has tried it: "There is this about subsoiling, which I think is not usuallv understood, that.'like sur face plowing it should be done for every crop. The loosening ofthe ground below, wbere it bad laid un titirred perhaps for ages, it mar 'be thought, will benefit it for years. Such is not my experience and obser vation. Made mellow, fc will settle and pack, except under certain con ditions, and become as bard, if not harder, in a year or two, as before. One of the exceptions is wbere ma nure is mixed with it, particularly vegetable or barnyard manure. Tbe roots of clover, or tbe plants that Penetrate and fill the soil well, will meet this requirement; grass and graios only to a slight extent I claim that in all cases surface plow ing can be to done, deep or shallow, as the crop may require, and tbe land admit to advantage, to produce all tbe crop that the land is suscepti ble of growing; yet it one can afford tbe expense, it would do well to try subsoiling a little as an experiment Subsoil plows are made for subsoil ing only ; they turn no furrows. SELEOTISi; SEEP WHEAT. A correspondent of tbe Country Gentleman says ; Last Jane, (187C) I picked seven pounds of tbe best cen tre heads of my wheat, and drilled it eleven inches apart in rows, at tbe rate of only forty pounds to the acre. It grew most luxuriantly and was en tie'y too ttick for large beads. It at tained the height of over six feet and much of it fell down. April 20th it commenced beading, was reaped June II and to-day (June 23d) it was threshed, according to the report of a committee, over sixty -seven bush els per acre." This shows a remar kable increase in tbe crop, as twelve to fifteen bushels is tbe average yield of wheat There is no doubt that selecting tbe best seed of all crops will increase tbe yield in some de gree ; but we cannot expect any per manent increase of crops. For in stance, tbe sixty-seven bushels of wheat to tbe acre, as above stated, will not continue to yielu aixty -seven bushels to the acre, nor half that quantity. TIGHT BAKJiS FOR BAT. A few writers are advocating ma king barns a; near airtight as possi ble for preserving bay. One of them eays: The general opinion amoLg farmers is, teat barns ritb air spa ces between the boarding are better adapted to cure and preserve bay than barns with very tight boarding and a tigfct bottom.. Sat Uu opin ion is founded upon tbe Mppoaed (act that free access of air will assist in carrying ff surp!os moisture, and prevent beating aad fermentation, which supposed fact Is not a fact at all, wbea applied to a body of oa- cured bay. When this uaearad grass is spread in thin layers fa the field and exposed to the air, the moUtare is carried off so rapidly as not to permit any beating or fermentation, bat when placed in a thick , body . in a mow, tbe beat, with access I air, causes rapid (eratentalioa. Tbe oxy gen of tbe air feeds tbe fermentation, and thus become tbe active cause of its destruction. This principle is fa miliar to the good housewife a ho preserves ber fruit in an air-tight jar. We tried an experiment some years ago, which applied this principle to keeping green clover. We took a large linseed oil cask, unbended one end, filled it with green clover jast in blossom, containing all iu aap, ram med in solid, replaced tbe bead, drove the boops and tben stopped all air spaces witb white lead and paint On opening, ten months after, tbe clover bloasoms were fonnd almost as bright as wbea put in. .Modern built barns are generally .weather boarded quite tight, but with no re- gard to the Letter keeping of hay. j Windows are placed in tbe gables to! admit light, and al?o air when tbej bay is being placed in tbe barn ; but : this new theory that bar should be' p it into tigbt barns in an uncurea state is mere bosh ; and tbe above story about keeping clover green ten months in an air-tight cask ia not worthy of credence. FERTILIZERS FOB. TURNIPS. As commercial fertilizc-rs are no being extensively oaed in tbe United Stales and England, my space will not be wasted by giving reports of tbeir use occasionally. The reader will please to bear ia tuiud that all tbc fertilizers in tbe world of eca tial value consist of nitrogen, phos phoric acid and patash; and that stable dung and all tbe commercial fertilizers ia existence have no im portant value only as regards the quantities- of the above three articles tbattbey contain. Then, ia order that my readers may tbe belter un derstand the application of said arti cles in tbe following report, I will say that nitrogen and ammonia are tbe same substantially, the phosphoric acid is chiefly faoni in the animal or mineral phosphates what is call ed phosphate, or superphosphate of lime, made of bones, and the mineral phosphates, such as are foucd in South Carolina and elswhere. Pot ash comes in under the bead of pot ash salts, sulphate of potash, nitrate of do. (ealpetre,) muriate of do and tbe pure article. Tbe following is a report of an experiment made in Scotland with turnips, and published in a London paper : 1. That plants, unassisted by phosphates and nitro gen, yielded at tbe rate of only ten tons per imperial acre. 2. That tbe addition of sulphate of ammonia in creased tbe yield only slightly. 3. That tbe addition of nitrate of soda alone in most cases gave a worse re sult 4. That a decided improvement is shown in every case by phosphates; in some cases tbo increase was three fold, and in others twofold. S. TLat it is immaterial whether tlo iusolu ble pbosphatea are of mineral or of animal origin. C. That it ia immate rial whether the phosphates are solu ble or insoluble, tbe difference In fa vor of tbe soluble being only lr&e- tional. 7. That it is immaterial j whether the soluble phosphates are of mineral or animal origin. 8. That though nitrogenous manures aloue are of little or no miuGra! value for turnips, tbey improve tbe results when given along with phosphates. 9. That organic nitrogen in boDes is decidedly of less value than nitroeen in en Vnh ate ot ammonia or Dtirie ci soda. 10. That crushed tioncs, though eontaiuing nitrogen, are not so beneficial as roprolitcs or bone ash, either dissolved or uodiswked. 11. That fine division gave an Jocrea.se in every case. 12. It appeared im material whether tbe sulphate of am monia was useid witb soluble or in soluble phosphates. 13. That nitrate of soda suited better with soluble than insoluble phosphates. 14. It appeared immaterial whether nitro gen when applied with soluble phos phates is in tbe form of sulphate of ammonia or nitrate of soda. U. That spring mauuriug is better than autumn or winter manuring for turn ips or sweaes. The soluble and iosoluble phos phates refer to tbal which Is made soluble by being dissolved ia sulphu ric acid (oil o. vitriol), or insoluble by not being thus treated, tbe latter giving cut its virtues quite slowly, as in the cae of coarsely ground bones, which may remain in the soil two or three years befofe the whole becomes soluble It appears from tbe abore report that nitrate of soda, applied alone to land for a turnip crop, is a positive in jury, and the editor of the paper in which tbe report appearea says: ti trate of soda (s extensively used on strong land as a dressing for bay or wheat: but on many Ugbt sojis nna late climates in Scotland its applica tion to other crops has been attended by adverse results. Mr. Mackenzie last vear experimented witb nitrate of soda, added to other manures for turnips. To one part of a field be applied one nnnarea weignt ot ni trate per acre along with bono ma nures and dung, to another part half a hundred-weight per acre and to a third part a quarter hundred-weight lne umerenos u ius weigni oi me crop was only a few pounds per acre, but the part which received no ni trate of soda produced the heaviest yield. Tbe gist of these statements is, that tbe phosphates, as bone dust or Sour, phosphate, or superphos phate, are tbe only commercial fer tilizers that former can applv to turnips profitably. HOW TO KEEP BLTTEli. A farmer's wife writes to the Ru ral New Yorker as follow First, tbe batter must be good wben made. alt the buttermilk must be worked out and in doing this, keep it out of water; don t bare any water come in contact witb it, fcr it spoils it Batter that is washed in wording, as it is termed, if good, would be tnicb better if it had not been washed. Salt to suit tbe tante of those wbo are to eat it Halt an ounce of salt o a pound of butter is about right Keep out all your saltpeter, sugar, or other curative ingredients; it will keep better without them, and per haps, too, without salt, bat then, it would not be so palatable. Do ip tbe butter each week, churning in one or more neat, round rolls of two or tbre pounds each, just what you have to put down; cover eash roll witb a ek e clean muslin clotb large enov ;b to go round it twice or more, so that it will be completely envelop ed, and sii t in a strong brine, as strong as tie bett salt will make it Stone veswli are the beet, and each roll as it is pat in may be sunk by Continnej niacins a clean stone on it to add more rolls until the vessel is full, always keeping the whole com pletely covered with brine; and to in sure strength, add more salt wben full Keep it in your cellar or in your gpring-hoase, and see if it is, not worth, in winter or spring, one hun dred per cent, more than any winter made butter. But mark! the butter must be good, well made by one wbo understands bow ; must be well work ed, and should, by all means, be wrapped up aad sank under tbe brine tbe aaaie day tbat It is churn ed, not kept If (ag about for . two or three days after churning. A good spring, witb the water at 5G is in dispensable to make the best "o. 1 butter in tbe summer months, and tben it must be ehuraei slow, that it may come solid.

' " ' .Xr.v Yokk, September H, 13 . political. ' ( Don't take any stock ia the rumors that bare been set afloat here as to the intentions of Senator Cockling. Senator Conkling did not come home to organize a raid upon the adminis tration, he is not in opposition to President Hayes, nor will he be. Of course Senator Conkling would have liked it better bad he been al lowed to control tbe patronage of tbe State as be has done for so many vcara, but Lo rwogiiiiWH the proprie ty and justice of the IVcsi'lfut's ac tion, and acquiesces heartily ia tbe new ctder of things. And next winter be will be the most effective supporter the 1'residcut will have in the Senate. And, by the way, tbe Republican party of the State of New York was never in so comfort able a condition as now, and tbe lVcHiilcnt's civil service reform i what has done it Tbe ppoiU ques tion out of tbe way, there is no long er any difference. Gov. Teuton is back in the ranks in full accord with tbe party of the State, and all are working togttber as amiably as could be wished. Tbo people of the State, of both parties, believe in tbo President and ibey will show it at tbe polls. Only tbe disappointed aro growling, and as everybody knows tte impelling motive of tbeir growls, tbey can do no barm. The best cap ital tbe President has id the fact that wJtLia two weeks over a huudred uselers officials bare walked the plank in this city alone, and there are more being led to the slaughter. The lact is, the President is gaining ground daily, and whoever opposes him will be ground to powder' by tbe people for whom he has instituted re forms tbat are actually reforms. lie has smashed machine politics, and all honest men, Democrats as well as Republicans, hafe faith in him, aud are having more every day. TIIE l.Ai'.na hi estiox. Robert R. Roosevelt, an old citi zen, and a very good man, has ad dressed an open letter to tbe Mayor, asking thai tbo city begia public works ia order to gjve aork to the starving unemployed, it is true that there are a vast number of men in the city who would work if tbey bad work to do, and it is also true tbat unless they get work tbo city will bttvd tJ sunpo't tLeui. . Roosevelt argues tbat' tue iity might as well get the value of the assistance it will have to render, as to give it in tbe shape of alms. The newspapers are criticising bis letter severely, but I can't say but that be is right, and that all other cities and towns that have unemployed labor should not do likewise. Roosevelt's proposition does not go far enough. The thous ands of professional mendicants, the beggars, organ-grinders, thieves and tramps should be arrested and com pelled to work. Every man and woman wbo cannot sbow visible means of support, s.eald compell ed to work, even if corporal punish ment should be found necessarr, and that would reduce tbc burden impos ed upon tbe people about a half. Tben, why not see tbe honest poor at work on public improvements which have got to be made sometime? Should not tbe municipalities of the country take advantage of the cheap ness of labor to build their new rail roads, their public buildings, and their streets, and tbeir everything tbat tbey have got to build soouur or later ? This is the precise time in which to do it If tbey do not set tbe unemployed at word of this kind, tbe public will have to support them anybov, and why not get the worth of their support? In short, why not get tbe value, in permanent improve ments, lor wLat we have got to pay I believe in tbe strong paternal gov ernment, which will act as a regula tor. When privata enterprise is act ive, tbc government can bo quiet. But when from any cause private en terprise becomes stagnant, and thous ands upon thousands of men, who would work if tbey could get work to do, are tirown out of employment, why should not tha government stop in, and, taking advantage of the cheapness of labor, give them employ ment on its work t This is the time tbat custom-bouses, post-offices, and other public buildings that tbe gov ernment will have to have within ten years should be built, and everything else of a public nature should be done. If a city or town has a rail road to build, a school-Louse to erect, or anything else of the kind to do, it cannot do a wiser thing than to commence it now. By this means it will get its improvements done at half the cost of four years from now, and it will give employment to that portion of tbe poor who will work. The tramps bbould then be compelled to earn tbeir living, and the labor question would be settled. Donahue, the leader of the rail road strikes at Hornellavillo, was re leased from Ludlow St jail, having served bis time out, bnt was arrested immediately by the Sheriff of Sleu ben county, god v, as taken to Bath, and put into the cotprpon jail. Don ahue don't like this, for ;i icterferes materially witb Lis purposes. He bad made so much notoriety by Lis connection with tbe strikers, that he bad made bis arrangements to util ize it, by starting a paper in New York, devoted to commaoiMD and all sorts of wild labor vagaries. His sbeet was to be named "The Striker," and be confidently epcu4 that every laboring man who bad a dollar to spare, would seud in bis money, and that hp would at once be eleva ted to tbe plaio of a leader of the laboring people, and possibly get to Congress on the strength of tlat ! hobby. For be it known tbat Mr. Donahue, like all tbe leaders of great movements, Is tbe most consummate demagogue that ever breathed, and there is nothing tbat be will not do to advance himself, lit is still lan guisbing in the jail of Steuben coun ty, and as the workiogmeo are loo smart to advance anything to let bint out, be is likely to stay ; there some lime. The labor movement in the city is banging fire. Tbe managers are anxious to have a strike, but tbe operatives ar -ajtjo. Those wbo bave work are arersa to Lrtj'njgo lueir uoiu, man uoe who cava ool. bave no money to put up to put tbe tntng tnroogn. Ana Swintoo, Acnwau and Ibompson, tbe orators of the coumunisU, , bare nothing to contribute- out Uks, and tbat won t buy bread aud , butter for, hnngry men and women.' The ' probability now It, tbat there will be no genera strjfce tere, Uia fall. , lfae season is too far adraned, and tbe would-be strikers .bavnet the mccey to do t witb. .-.- TOE TELEuaAtt. . Did I arge last week that tbe gov ernment should take hold of the tele graph? If I did .not, I want to do it now. While the Atlantic and Pacif ic and the Western Union were com peting, we had decent rates, and a man could afford to use tbe tele ernph. You could send ten words from New York to Chicago, or any intermediate point, for twenty-five cents, and everybody used tho tele graph instead of tbe mails. But now tbat Jay Gould, tbe worst man in America, bas consolidated the two companies, and tbey have gone under one management, tbe rates will go back to the old figure, one dollar, and the people will be swindled just tbat amount It is a shame ibat so great an interest as the telegraph has got to be, should be placed solely In the hands of one man, and that forty millions of people should be turned over to L'uu to lo taxed as he sees fit. It is an outrago tbat a communi caiiou just as important as tbe mail should be made tbe property of one man, who can raise or lower the tar iff to suit his convenience. There is no reason under heaven why the gov ernment 6houId not control the tele graph tbe same as it does tbe mails, and fix tbc rates on dispatches as it does on letters. There ought to be, this fall, petitions go to Congress signed by every man and woman in the country, demanding that the crov- emment take the telegraph, which it nas a period ngbt to do. There is no reason why a dispatch ot ten words should not ba sent for ten cents, instead of a dollar or two dol lars, which Mr. Jav Gould will c Large. And then, dear people, take a any at tbe express business. Is there aay earthly reason "vhy goods tit to te sent through tbe mails should not go through them, at a rato of postage that will pay the government tor doing ur Is tbcre any reasonJ why tbe express company should monopolize the carrying trade of the country, and compel the people to pay wLatever tbey choose to exact ? The post-office is tbe remedy for this extortion, lbe law of tnree years ago should be re-enacted, and all mat ter tbat can be safely carried through the mails should be so carried. It was repealed through the efforts of express companies, wbo bad altogeth er too much influence iu Congress. See to it that Congress this winter allows you to use the mails for every thing that is legitimately mailable. As this ia tbc time for reforms see tbat yuu get all tbat you are entitled to. Flood Congress with petitions for cheap telo-rapbing and express busiutHs, and tbus get yourself in shape tjr a movement on the rail road saud tbe other SAind'.es tbat burden you. PlETBO. ettut(e llarinoniouit. Thev drove into town Monday, bo- bind a cross-eyed mulo and a spavin ed borsc. Tbey looked contented, but one member of the party was the head of tho house, for she bandied be ribbons, and wbeu they halted she bitched the team, while he stood demurely by and took the basket of eggs and Lcr shopping satchel as 6be banded tbemout iney disposed oi tbeir produce at the grocery, and then entered a dry goods store. She made a few trifling purchases of thread, pios, needles and such things, auu then caled for two knots of yarn. "They wont DJ enojgn, .uary," said the man. "Igi s I kno .v a hat I aai buying," she retorttd. "But it a'u't mjr'n half what you've had afore," bp said. "Wall; that's none of your business; these seeks are goin' to be for me, and if I want 'era el)ort( you pan have your'q came way up to vour neck, if you want to." Tbe old man bowed to tbe inevita ble with a long sigb, as bis partner turned to the clerk and said; "Two yards of cheap suiitin,' if you please." "Ibat a nt unougn, Mary," said the old man, plucking at her' dress again. 'Yes, 'tis." "No, it ain't." "Wall, it's all you'll gli" she suap ped. 'Put it up, then, mister," aaid be, turning to tbe clerk; "it up, and we won't bave any." "Who's doin this buyin', I should like to know?" hissed lbe woman. ' You are, Mary, you are," be ad mitted; "but you cau't palm off no short biris on me." "Von act like a fool, .John Spi ner." "Mebbe I do, Mary, but I'iJ be durned to gosh if I'll bave a shirt no, not if I go naked." "Wall, I say two yards Is enough to make any one two shirts," she snapped." "Mebbe that's enough for you, Ma ry," be said very quietly; "p'raps you can git along witb a' collar but ton Asd a neck band, but tbat ain't me, aad I don't propose to freeze my legs to save eight cents." "Git what you want then!" she shrieked, pushing him over a stool ; "git ten yards, git a half piece; git a doz'tn pieces if you want 'em, but remember lb at I'll make you sick for tl-ii" "Four yards, if you please, mister four yards," said Lb to - tue clerk ; "and just remember" be continued, "if you bear of 'em Gndin' me with my bead busied, friz to death ia a snow drift, just remember tbat you beard ber say she'd make me sick."

Imagine Adam iu bis loneliness tbo only human being in this wide, wide world a full grown man at bis birtb, with no one to grant him a certificate thereof, nor to lurni ib him evidence tbat be was born at all ! lie had never experienced any of the perils of infancy and cbildbood such as the cuttiug of teeth, measles and the cbicken-pox without which no young man's education is com plete. Adam was the only young man who never bad a grandmother to mend his pants, to knit his mittens, and to stand between him and all harm. He never played tbo great and exhilarating game of baso ball, and he never submitted to tbe digni ty of having a chip knocked off his shoulder by another boy. So ! he bad none ot tbe essentials tbat go toward making up the average boy of tbe present day. He found himself born somehow a full grown man, a bachelor with no chum in the whole universe with whom to converse up on tho interminable topic, lbe weath er ; no one to sew bottons on bis shirt ; no one to lend him a helping hand. There be was the keeper of a large xoological garden, wr.h no door-keeper to take lbe tickets, and no one to come to tbe show. Like all bachelors be seemea to be a mis take ; and this quality of mistake ha been so severely transmitted torougb the long ages tbat bave intervened, without let or hindrance, that it bas become a fixed fact, as unalterable as Persian law. He becomes fidgety, queer, notional, and out of order gen erally. Adam bad, in all probability, begun to nianiiest some ot these pe culiar characteristics, and was him self convinced that there was some thing more necessary to bis happi ness; but be had not tbe brains to invent, nor tbe ingenuity to devise anything himself. Adam evidently was not a happy man in bis estate of single blessedness; aud lbe Divine Being, ever anxious for the welfare of bis creatures, saw thai ii was not good for him to be alone, and gave bim what every full-grown man needs, viz : suiue ouo to talk to, to ar gue witb, to love and cberisb, aud, if everything dou'i go right jreuerally, "go for," to lay part of the ttiue up on. Did you ever contemplate the pov erty of Adam wben he took Ie for i ....-..,. , a n.i- .i r ;,i He hadn't a hat on his bead, a coat on his back, a pair of shoes on bis feet, aor "nary red ceui" iu bis trou sers pocket. Kve brought no dowry, she bad nothing to bestow save love and affection ; and be was the only young man arouni), it was tumor nobody. Lqually as poor as ber bus land, she came to bim without a bon net or shawl, a calico gown, or even a pair of slippers. Moses forgot in bis reminiscence, to give aa account of their wedding trip : but from what we can gather iu regard to the ward robes of tbat day, their baggage would have proved no incumbrance a very limited amount sufficed, and dressing to please everybody was of no account, for there were none to please but themselves. Doubtless their whole oqtfjt of traveling dresses, water proofs, dusters, lunch-baskets and all, be could have parried, in tbe pockets of bis trousers. They must bave started housekeeping, also, up on as small a capital as could be well imagined. Tbey hadn't, as far as can be gleaned from history, a hair brush, a fine-tooth pomb, a towel, nor soup ; no bitters, soothing syrups, clothes-wrjogers, nor srqootbiog irons no clothing. Adam wasn't afraid to inyitp'Lis wife to go on an excur sion with biffl for fear of having to go down deep into tjjs trousers pocket for the wherewith to buy a suitable OQlGt-rfor the reason thqt he bad no trousers; nor did be swear at bag gage smashers, nor brook tbe inso lence of railroad officials. There was no good and sufficient reason why tbey shouldn't have been an amiable couple, and have a good lime gener ally. They washed their clothes doubtless, by a dive into lbe Eu phrates ; and, there being no clothes lines, tbeir clothing was allowed to dry on tbeir backs. And Adam didn't care a rush whether his shirt bosom was smooth or not; and why should Kve bother her bead about it so long as be was satieGed ? Peaaay Ivaala'a Laaa-aWhlua; lola trie. Pennsylvania bas inexhaustible mines of wealth ia ber coal and iron industries. At present tbey are suf fering from depression to an extent that can scarcely be realized by resi dents of many other portions of the Union. In addition to all tbe natu ral and inevitable causes that weigh heavily against them, tbe extensive substitution of steel fur iron rails Las bad an important influence in di minishing the former demand fur tbe products of our furnaces and rolling mills. Tbe suspension of new rail way construction has intensified this stagnation. For many of these evils tbe healing influence of time will provide a remedy; and even as mat ters staud to day, it would require but a slight change ia tbp cost of pro duction to secure extensive foreign markets. Brazil, for instance, has commenced railway building on an extensive scale, and by proper efforts she could be made a liberal purchaser for iron, steel, coal, and other pro ducts of Pennsylvania. But whatev er may be done abroad, it would be suicidal folly to surrender borne markets by such modification of tbe tariff as are advocated by the free traders. Protection is especially ne cessary during the transition era through which the cjuntry is now passing. It is difficult to conceive of anything more horrible and inhuman than the proposition to kill our strug gling industries because tbey are temporarily crippled. amplaf Cawa. had a steer a few years ao that was jo the babit of juroping, and I tried lbe borse farmer's girdle, made like any blanket surcingle, only stoutr er, and attached to tbe level with tne forearm of tbe creature, a wide strap at right angles, one on each side, and these straps passed around the fore arm, passing between tbe arms on lbe inside and coming around to buckle on a girdle on the outside, and buek'ing op tight enough io shorten steps some. Do not put it on UO tight; tbey would stumble over a rixincb rail lying ou lbe ground- Af P"00 cn make one by psMDg oyer tic tsc a girdle, and then the right angle strap eacb side of a brisket as high as can be on a level and bring tbe strap around tbe forearm to girdle and buckle the forearm back to tbe girdle wbere the strap is fastened oo, Tbj fetter is out of danger of getting bung by, and does not obstruct feeding In lbe least and yet tbey cannot jump a two-foot fenpe,' for tbey won't dare. I be lieye this sure proof. There only one objection to it- it will wpar off the bair on tbe forearm. I should recommend taking it off every nigbt and yarding to rest them. Duel wllk Halvealaa Pria Recently Tete Hanley, and John O'Brien, convicts at San tjuentia, Cel., got into a dispuU over some tri vial matter, and agreed to settle the controversy in a duel, with knives as weapons.

O'Brien directed bis stabs at Hanley' faco while the latter delivered bis thrusts at O'Brien's body. Tbe alarm was gi-en by some ot tne otner prisoners, and wben the guards arrived tbey found tbo two duelists covered wilb blood and perfectly willing to cease hostilities. . Upon examination O'Bri en was found to be severely wounded. In addition to a slash in lbe abdomen bis right hand bad been badly cut iu frnm the ball of the thumb to the wrist, as if be bad grasped the a a .

After having inspected a pile of cal ico ia oue of tbe Woodward Avenue stores yesterday, a suuitAhat rusty looking man blandly remarked to the clerk before him : "Credit must be given me ' "Xo, sir we don't trust," was the reply. "1 was guiug to remark that credit must be given me for " "We couldn't do it, sir. Tlu rule applies lo every one." "Couldu'i (I what ?'' asked I lie man. "Couldn't give you credit." "You are very uncivil, sir, very ; but yet 1 will say before 1 g out of here tha'- credit must he given me for being honest and impartial, wben I say tbat 1 never saw tbreo hiti'Liog posts look nicer than them out there. That's all, sir, and I wish I bodu't said tbat much." Waated. A wife wbo can haudle a broom to brush down cobwebs and sweep up her room.

The Cincinnati i.iufinrf tells the f.diowiog as a fuc'.; "A lady in tb:s city, having a fancy for tbe daugh ters of the sunny South, sent a de. scrlptlon of the kind of a child she wanted to a foundling hospital in N'eWrQrleaos. A day or two ago she reooived a reply that a child suit ing ber desoription bad been found among tbe babies iu the hospital, and that It was on Its way to Cincin nati. Imagine her sensation yester day moroinjr wben tbe messenger of tbe Acaus Kxpress rang tbe bell and announced a package for Mrs , at the same time presenting a girl of tender years witb an express label tied to one arm. The package was duly receipted fur and was gladly welcomed." A Reripe far atpoaoje take. Here is a recipe tor sponge cake that I find very convenient if one wants to bake a cake in a hurry. Make a good fire and bayp the oven heating, break the whites of t) eggs into a Uisb and beat to a stiff from, put in 2 cups of sugar and stT togeth er, beat the yolks light, take 2 cups of sifted flour and a small p;nch of salt, beat together quickly, add a ta blespoonful essence of lemon, bake in a quick oven, in a square baking pan, the sooner it can be made and in'the oven the lighter it will be. Some bave great difficulty in making "roll jelly cake." If they will follow this recipe, and bake ia a large baking pan, so as to have it thia enough to roll nicely, tbey will not have any trouble: Three eggs, the whites beaten to a stiff frotb, 1 cup 1 cup sifted flour. Bake in bakihg-pan in a quick oven, suar, a lung spread a clean tea towel on the table, have ready your cup of jelly a? soon as tbe cake is dene, turning it out on the towel, spread the jelly on ; and roll it up, wrap lbe towel around it, and lay it aside until tea is ready. Cut in slices, and you bave a nice plate of ca ke. In ler- Ovea n. Au iovetorate drinker named liar ley ia Suu Francisco is said to bave really perished recently from sponta neous combustion.

Tbe bar keeper beard a low moan and uoiictd a dish of fire, and, turning around, be saw liar ley falling to the floor, his head enveloped in black, thick smoke, wbile flames issued from bis moutb and ears. A horrible smell of burning flesh filled the air. Nut a moment was oxt ia attending to lip sufenf. lie wasbt-yund relief, how ever.
