Tlie lyrphus fly, a rapid flying two

the lamb will answer from the other side

lWlCb TearaBrnta.
It Has always beca accepted that in
cities tlie death rate in tenement houses
ts greater than ilie general death rata.
This belie lias recently been contro
verted, as far as Sew York city is con
cerned, by a careful analysis of the re
turns made to llu health department.
It was found that last year the general
icitli rate per 1.000 inhabitants was
1X.2X, while the death rate among tene
ment dwellers was 22.71. Beyond this
it was found that the death rate in large
tenement houses is less tliaa in the
smaller ones. The chief reason for this
difference of mortality to the advantage
of tenement houses is attributed to the
osercise of the plenary power of the
Ikxird of health in regard to them in
lioth construction and appointments
luring recent years, while the construc
tion arrtl upjxiintments f the hitherto
supposed to be the most liealthful class

PHEr-it.'VING EGGS.-
It l5trsted by an English milhorit
that w hile c;gs prescrvid in li Sic or s:i!t
have proved to t good after C; expira
tion cf four months, it has not until re
ccntlv Uvn estal.lisheil for what length
of time the action of these preservativea
will keep them good, as four months is
comparatively of little use. From tho
abovo the reader might reasonably sup
(oe that some new provx8 in the use of
the two articles, salt and lime, was about
to lie given, as it is stated as the result of
numerous experiments with various sub
stances thHt these have shown their un
doubted superiority over all others. A
h. ivt'iinie Uii-d in I'nuhind, one pnxcw
consisted in packing the eggs as msmj as
l.n.l in dry salt, the other in immersing
them in 'freshly made lime water. Of
these two mly successful proces lime
pnn-ed much suwrior to salt, tliougl
more trtiublewHiie. Sait attracts moist
ure from the eggs, the albumen or white
nf the egg colisxplelitly liecomcs thick
en.sl and a considerable air space is left.
When lime water is employed the eggs
are quite full and it is necessary to prick
them U-fore boiling or they will crack
by tlie expansion of their contents by
heat
But the process by which It was found
eggs may be successfully preserved for
twelve months is thus described: To pre
serve, sny, a Uiousand eggs, take about
thirty-fcix pounds of lime in lumps and
place in a strong meud or stone vessel,
pouring over the sumo soino two gallons
of lxili:ig w ater. Then cover with strong
netting, taking care the same does not
fire, ami leave in a safe place until quite
cold. Then mix w ith almut twelve gal
lons of cold water, uckiing seven pounds
of coare salt and pour carefully over
the eggs, quite covering them and leav
ing out any sediment tliat may have
sotll'-d at the bottom of the mixing pan.
Tickle, if thus rightly made, will in
few days frost over as if covered with
very tliia ice, and if this does not ha p
penadd tuo.-e lime until the desired end
is attained. The pickle is poured over
the eggs in a niiiky condition, being
passed through a fine sieve to catch any
large pieces not dissolved. Boiling water
wulJ be used for slaking tlie lime,
Tlie gwt secret is to have good fresh
eggs and to Wet-p u; tho strength of the
pickle and the surface frysted over by
adding from time to time fresh strong
picket, or, if not room in the vessel for
inon. Jjouid, then freshly slaked lime.
Stone or eatlJiware vessels ae most
suitable and should suujij in a cool place
ami not lie moved about. Tlie tfjgs must
be f rashly laid, not more than one wek
old If good results are desired, and must
not I cracked, and every egg sliould be
tested before placing III th Inkling f ea
sel. By the alxive uuians egga uy ls
kept any reasonable ti me, certainly frou
spring to winter.
Of the method thus described, which is
sulwliuituljy the same that has been
known and practiced n this country for
years, with variations in the proportions
of Kuie and salt os used by different er
sons, 5!r. W. B. Tegetnieier, a well known
and excellent authority, eys: "I have
Jiitherto lcn rather prepossessed in fa
vor of Jhe dry 6a!t method, but I doubt
whether it efficacy would extend to
twelve mouths. Tl3 influence of lime
water and salt is apareittiy duo fo tho
entire protection from the action of tho
air, the absorption of all carbonic acid
from tlie water, the destruction of all
germs that might exist in the water, and
jKRttibly also to the antiseptic character
of the eajt and lime." It is further stat
ed that Mr. Tgt'tmeiir. who has tested
some of the egg f.hat have lieen kept
over a year by Ibis nf,c-thod, describes
them as being uiialtered h abearance
and looking U'tter than shop uggs. Thy
were icrfectly good when used In ome
lets and cuxtards, in which they could
not lie distinguished from ordinary eggs.
Notwithstanding such favorable testi
mony, it is well remembered that eggs
preserved for a long time by any of the
methods known, including thoone under
consideration, in some way betray the
fact of their preservation. Even in pe
riods of scarcity preserved eggs sell for
so much less Ier dozen than fresh eggs
that extravagant profits from the process
are not very often realizAHj. In this con
nection it may Iw well to staje that a
formula, used in New York state wiih
good results, for the lime and soft pickle
is in the proportions of one bushel of un
slaked liiue mid eight quarts of salt to
sixty-live gallons ut water, to be pre
pared and used in much Uu atvn man
ner us above described.
Aprirultuml Notes.
Lovett's White is the name of a new
peach which is said to have yielded an
nually in certain eastern stab" where
most other varieties have failed. It is
claimed that it is the hardiest white

late. The color is a pure white; size very
large: it i.-) a long keeper; the quality is
sweet fini excellent. The flesh parta
from the pit perfecrly.

Poultry houses should be w-hltewaohcij,
inside and out, two or three times a year.
Into the whitewash for the inside of the
house put a little glue or a teacupful of
soft lioiled rice to a jail of whitewash,
and also add ten or twelve drops of crude
carbolic acid, as a safeguard against ver
min. Blackcap raspberry plants are easily
propagated and any one who has a few
plants of a variety that pleases him may
greatly increase their number by layer
ing the tipB of the young canes and cov
ering them with two or three inches of
soil. The proper time to do this is when
the end of the cane begins toenkirgaand
swell, soon after the fruiting season.

Diamonds Arm I' a.
Diamond dealers in Maiden lane and
John street are watching every move
ment of the market with sharp eyes.
Their wares have been advancing stead
ily iu value for four months past, and
prices show no sign of any falling off.
"On the contrary," said a well known
Maiden lane importer, who has just re
turned from Europe, "I found the Lon
don market very still and uppish in tone.
As is generally known, the output of the
African diamond mines is controlled by
what is known as the Amalgamation,
which is a sort of diamond trust, and
three Ixmdon iirms, Jules Porges, B
nato Brothers and Julius Kohn, hand)
the greater portion of the uncut dia
monds that come to that market. They
have restricted tlie output to suit them
selves, and as a consequence many of
the Amsterdam cutters and R!islicrs are
running w ith reduced forces, w hile some
of tlie smaller sliojis have closed up al
together. "The market's firmness may be judged
by an incident which occurred in Lon
don just before I sailed. I was in the
office of a large diamond firm, trying to
get some stones suitable for my trade,
when an outsider, that Is, a man not in
the trade, came in and purchased a par
cH of medium stones, weighing from
one to three carats, and valued at 0,000
or 7.000. for which he iaid cash down..
He had the stones wrapjied up. and put
them back in the firm's safe to await a
rise in the markat. 1 also know of many
American dealers w I., went over this
spring to buy from fc-Vl.OOO to $100.CKK
worth of stock who have returned with
only half the stones they intended to
purchase, and some came back with
even less than half."
Diamonds are, as a matter of fact,
frn i'O to 25 -r cent, higbertodny tiian
they were four months ago. when tlie
oiai ket began to feel the manipulations
of the diamond tribt. Tlie trust is evi
dently a success, and if diamonds keep
on going up engaged couples may have
to be content with other gems. New

Grass is a liatural a food for swine r.s
for any other class of animals, though
this fact does not apjwar to lie duly ap
preciated. This importance of pasture
is emphasized by Sir. F. D. Curt in In a
recent issuo of American Agriculturist,
ne says: Tlie beet results can be had
with breodir j aows by turning them
Into a field where there is plenty cf pas
ture. It is not advisable to allow Uiem
to have pigs where other hogs run, al
though in a large range there is little
dancer of tho pigs being disturbed or in
jured when Imtii. One thing is Him
there is no firnl which ill make licMer
pigs or put the sow s in U tter condition
for U-aring J oung than graxs.
Sows that destroy their pigs i'l the
spring will make good mothers in the
summer wh;n fl on grass. In the
spring they were feverish and niado
frenzied by their physical condition;
while in the summer by the cooling and
succulent character of the grass they
were in perfect condition for the ortleal
of liearing young. Feeding vegetables
has a similar effect, and when sows have
these regularly they are always sure to
do well Fruits are also natural foods
for sw ine, and aows will do well if fed
nothing but apple. In the summer hogs
should always l on earth ami given a
chance to root. When it is known that
all these cheap foods are so natural and
healthful for swine, it seems strange
that so many farmers persist iu keeping
their bogs, the year round, on grain.
An acre of sweet corn, fed stalks and
all, will go a long way towards fatten
ing a lot of hogs. Sorghum is also ex
cellent. Weeds are allowed to go to
seed, for extra wort next year, w hich
would make excellent xrk.
Here is a maxim: The cheapest food.
make the best jwrlf. Tho reason U it is
the leanest. Lean pork then being the
best, wo should try to make it. Con
finement in pens tends to increase the
fat. Exercise develo the muscles.
Tlie muscular part is the best food. The
fat is largely waste. We make fat to
throw it away. People buy hams not
for the fat, but for the lean. When the
fat is wasted it make's the lean cost just
so much more. Tweduce the fat and in
crease the lean.
Can this bo done? Certainly; in this
way: Keep tlie pigs all their fives in tho
pasture. Feed skim mjlk find. brn
Keep corn away from them. Gjve hen
vegetables and apples witl) the brai.
When, the liodiesor frames are grown,
give fheiq oatmeal or rye. ground entire,
iuij;d witl) bpin, putting; jn twjoe ng
piuch bran as rye. Keep up ll9 Vegetable
and apple diet and allow them during this
tjmp jq pnf nil t'-ie grass tbey wilk A
little oorn may bo fed towards the end.
Pork luuda in this way will iuu mure
lean and will be tender and juicy,
Sordine for Clover.
n seeding for clover on very sandy
oil It wiJl U iitximaury to supply tut'
fleient liuinuB in the form of decayed
vegetable matter or barn yard manure
for the clover to make a catch. To estab
lish a good clover cod on such a soil may
be no easy matter and require time and
manure, but. when once obtained, it will
be well worth the cost. Whenever good
vimef production has once lieen reached
tho after Iniprovomont of the soil will be
comparatively easy, and may bo pushed
with a rapidity commensurate with the
inclination and means of the owner.
A correspondent of the New Jersey
station found that on his sandy soil, when
clover was sown alone, weeds took pos
session of the ground at first, making the
small amount of clover secured by late
vklr,).' of comparatively little value.
By solving imllid and (.(grpr together, ie
secured fodder which liU tock goiiMiUieil
as readily us billed hay, and not inferior
to that secured by others who needed
without millet and secured little or no
benefit from the first cut becuuse of
weeds.
A good crop of red clover, when cut
for hay, removes a large quantity of ni
trogen from the land. Uit it nevertheless
leaves the surface soil richer in nitrogen
than it was before, made so from the res
idue of roots and stubble left in the soil
The seed may lie sown in fall or spring,
depending ujHin local conditions and cli
mate; but, iu the majority of cases, the
best results come from sowing iri tho
spring, and quite often on the late snows,.
In all cases it should lie as evenjy dis.
Jrjbuted as possible, and pt( mellow, well
prepared soil. If sown in autumn it
should be duno oarly, h jtli the ground
wet or moist, in order that it may get a
good start before winter. Tlaster will

What OtheiB Say.
Tlie American Sheep Breeder states
that "if a few dry cows or heifers are
kept in the field w ith sheep, tlie dogs
will seldom molest them. We have
found sheep in the morning huddled so
close around and under a friendly old
cow that she could not get away from
them; she had saved their lives."
A southern writer suggests that a good
place for watering ducks that have no
natural streams or ponds to resort to is
to hollow out a round or oval pond of
moderate dimensions, covering the bot
tom and -ades with cement If this pan
be connected with a pump by pipes it
can be filled daily with little labor. If
connected with the waterspouts of a
building it will be Hushed, cleansed and
filled at every rainfall.

WAVES' WILD WORK.
Bis Storm Along the Eastern Coast.
It was a great storm. For a long time it
will be referred to in the meteorological au
nais as the great cyclone of September,
It was one of thoee merry-go-ruand storms,
-rent-rated in the AVest Indies, where the
wind goes whirling around In a circle per
haps 500 miles iu diameter, and the nearer
the centre one gets tlie harder the wind
blows, nntil one reaches the heart of it,
where there is k calm. This storm has beeu
traveling along the gulf stream for a week,
and for three day the northwest quarter of
its arc has been over the northoa.it corner of
Uncle Sam's domain. The wind has howl
ed, as it always does when a cyclone is
arvuud, and I here liave been stirring times
along shore. cUicit waves as are seldom seen
have disturbed tlie beaches, and the ple
who owned boats and ljy-suiid bath houses.
The ruin has been puticularly great between
Cape Cnd and the IVIuware breakwater.
No lives were lost in Atlantic City, nor
was any serious destruction wrought there
by the storm, txcept aKing the beach. Tbe
greater portion of the boanla-a'.lc and most
of the btruotiires along it were damaged or
destroyed, and at one time nearly the whole
of the city was Hooded by the high tides.
Lee's Ocean Terrace propei ty, already dam
aged by the waves, was destroyed by fire.
A numberol yachts are reported to have
been wrecked iu thoroughfares and creeks at
Atlantic City. It is learned that at Sea I.ile
City two hotels and about a dozen cottages
were swept away, and some of the cottages
were Hooded to their third stories. EllurU
are being made to repair the railroad so as
to get provisions to the place. -
Reports of destruction and damage to
j-roiierty come from all portions of the Xew
Jersey and Long Island coast, but the only
serious loss of life is reported in Delaware
Bay. Three schooners have been wrecked on
Fourteen Foot Bank, and it is feared that 31
lives have been lost. The ship W. R. tJrace
is ashore on the point of the Capes, and has
had her masts cut away. At Lewes, a guar
dian City of Cape llenlopen, twenty-six
vessels, broken and forlorn after their buffet
ing with waves, lie in a dismal line alom; a
two-mile stretch of beach, with the storm
still furiously lashing them.
The total loss along the Atlantic coast is
nearly two millions.
The ocean hammered away at the Sandy
Hook Peninsula opposite the foot of the
Highlands of Navcsink, until it succeeded in
reopening the pa-sngc into the Shrewsbury
River which has been closed since thejdays
of tbe Revolution. The waves tore out
bulkheads, carried away the beautiful lawns
which were the pride of the summer cot
tagers, and toppled several elegant cottages,
down into the boiling surf, where they were
almost instantly knocked to pieces.
One of the saddest features of the storm
was the encroach nient of the sea along tha
front of Long Branch. Here the storm car
ried away bathhouses and pavilions and cut
huge gups in the bluff which skirts Ocean
avenue the famous sea drive. On Thursday
night a perfect reign of terror prevailed
among the cottagers from Highland Beach
as far south ai Monmouth Bench. Many of
them mil up all night, almost wild with
terror. It was pitch dark, and the storm
raged so furiously that eveu strong men were
unable to face it.
At Asbury Park the loss was not as severe
as it was further north. James A Bradley,
the founder of the town, had his tuoiis
wooden ocean promenade badly dumnged
and one of his big pavilions was partially
undermined by the surf. The sand was cut
out from the beach from Deal Lake south,
through Aiury park and .Ocean Grove to
Avon-bytbe-Sea.
Tbe same story of wrecked walks pavilions
and bathing-houses comes from all parts of
the coast below Ocean (J rove as far as Sea
Side Park on the narrow line; of sand that
lies between the ocean and Barncgat Bay.
At several places between the bead of the
bay and Sea Side Park the ocean broke over
into the bay, carrying with it hundreds o(
feet of the track of the Long Branch and
Philadelphia Railroad division of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company.
A Fortunate Young Lady.
Miss Jennie Martin, 176 North street,
Rochester, X. Y.f says: "I suffered long
from Kidney complaints home physi
cians failed to afford relief. A friend in
duced tne to try Dr. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy, niado at ltomlouf. X. Y. Tlie
effect was wonderful. When I had ta
ken two bottles I was cured, and have
had do trouble since. I w rite for the ben
efit cf others."
"You are a domestic servant?" asked a
lawyer of a female w itness in a Liver
pool court the othet day, ""No, sir," she
indignantly rcj4i.i "J. am a house
maid."

Remarkable Law Suit.
1'KoviUENca, R. I., September 14. The
basement of tbe county court hoiue was full
of cats to-day, and the halls and corridors ol
justice echoed with the howls of the felines
who had been corralled from the several
states in Xew England some being brought
here in baskets from a distance of 400 miles.
The presence of the caterwauling tribe was
occasioned by another hearing in the first
and only cat ca.ie brought in this state, a ca.e
which brings into prominence the family of
Noble D. V. Demunn and Miss Caroline
Richmond. Both families belong to the
upper crust of society and both claim own
ship of a tortoise cat. The Demuuns owned
the animal and it strayed to Miss Rich
mond's house and she has kept it. Tbe De
muuns introduced expert testimony last
Saturday to prove the age of tbe cat, and
they apparently won the case. The other
side was given until to day to put in rebutt
ing evidence, and this consisted of the col
lection of cats referred to which had been
gathered regardless of expense by a young
man who was on the road all week picking
up tortoise cats with pedigrees Bworn to for
the purpose of springing them on the expert
and confounding him as to bis knowledge of
ages. Unfortunately for the Richmond the
expert was not hereto be confounded and
so they went to a great deal of needless ex
pense. At Miss Richmond's instance the
reporters were excluded from the hearing
and the greater part of the day was taken up
with the secret inquiry upon which a de
cision is to be given by the master in chan
cery, who is acting as arbitrator.
