During a rceent visit in Colorado wo
were dctiiineil for some hour at Canyon

help us pass the time awny we were
diiectrd to the un called bone yard. AVe
wont as d reeled, and I nm eonstrnined
to say that among too innumerable
natural curiosities of this strange and
rurious country none possesses a deeper
interest than this place. Here is the
rarest and linest geological display 1 have
ever seen. The little stream through
whose canyon we approached the now
fnniotu tielil leaves in many places the
formation cut cleanly down threo thou-
sand feet, shoiring all the stratifications. !
The whole country formany miles around
is much broken, and the dip or inclina- ,
tion of tho rock is such that in traveling
from Canon City lo this strange anil
interesting quarry, we pass uvi-r uiu
posed edge of ail tho formations from
tho tertiary to the silurian periods. Hut
the exposure only becomes of mote than
usual interest as we cuter the canyon of
(HI Creek, where the walls rise sheer and
clear cut above you, showing the strnti
ficntion through many geological periods.
The Hone Yard proper is but seven or
eight milts out of Canyon City, but the j
interest continues for the stndeut of na
ture, espec ially if a geol"gt, for many
miles beyond. e found the supcriii-

The superintendent took me up to the . have been the results of many ventures,

The journey was worth a pilgrimage to
any one of those who see earth's history
in rocks and read the tablets of the
stratifications which are the sepulchers

who have visited this spot have been
wonderfully interested. Although the
place is iviknowu to the millions, there
are but few spots in Colorado that have
received the attention of distinguished
scholars equal to this.
After some moderately hard climbing
we arrived at the quarry, and, distinctly
visible in the loft gray sandstone of the
Jurassic era in which they bad become
mired and perished, are the petrified
forms of huge monsters fifty feet in
lenu'th. The utmost care is required in
petting them out and the labor of three
men has been engaged in this service
for three or four years. This is all done
for the museum of Yale college and paid
for out of the Peabody fund. The
scientiric interest of this mu-ciim has
been materially increased by the remains
taken from this quarry and the work will
no doubt continue so long as new or
special forms continue to be iound.

Farmers who live in a region where
fruit can be grown, should not fail to
make ample prov sion for a regular and
abuudaut supply through the entire
year, or as near 10 llio vi-ai y circle as
practicable. There is comparatively lit
tie uilliculty in providing a regular suc
cession through summer and autumn, by
planting various small fruits and the
early-ripening apples, pears, peaches,
plmus, and other kinds which will give
an tin ntcrruptod succession from early
summer to w inter; but more care is re
quired to prescue without decay the
winter varieties which are to bo rciained
for months within doois, froi.i the tirstof
December to the lollowinir .lime. Two
principal requirements arc ncccss iry ; a
good fruit room, which may I e a portion
of the house cellar, sc runted from the
rest ol tne cellar hy a partition, so us to
be kept perfectly sweet and pure by am

consists of boxes ases, trays, shelves,
or other receiitai lis in which the fruit
may be stored, and be always readily ac
cessible for daily use.
Attend to Cowls Yourself.
The pouliry editor of F,ir,n ami Car
leu gies this timely advice in relation
to supervision of poultry yards: It has
been demonstrated, by repeated failures,
sen. to secure a coni etent man to
manage a large poultry faim is no easy
matter, and a n h'1 v coin) i-teiit assistant
oi manager will uuut .something more
than the oidmary monthly wnges and
boaid Nearly all failures result from in
competency. To get together a huge
flock of hens, and put. "a man"' over
them who is not ouiy an inexperienced
persnii, but below the average in intel
ligence, is ruinous to the prospects. It
requires knowledge and intelligence to
manage a largo poultry farm, nnd quite a
Managing Straw Stacks.
Straw is much more highly esteemed
j than it mcd to be, tliouuh chcm cal
j aualysis shows that its nutritive value is
low. 'I here are two reasons for this
The uses of straw in various manufactures I
, have created a demand, and thus in- :
creased its price above its value for feed- '
ing nloue. The second is that feeders 1
! have learned by the use of straw to safely !
j feed cotton-seed meal, making the excess
of nutrition in one balance its deficiency
I in the other and thus make a cheaper
: combined food than can be had in any
: thing where bulk and nutrition are
' naturally equalized so as to make good
'" mmum preparation, it requires
skill to use stiaw in this way, but, 119 in
other cases, the "know how to do it" is so
well paid that it leaves room for some
increase in value for the necessary ma
terial. Where cotton-seed meal is
abuudant and cheap it mav have the
effect of making straw for feeding with
it nearly as vulituble as good bay, though
in itself the straw may alone be so poor :
as nut to sustain animal life, and thus be
worth alone nothing or less. I
Even for farmers who have no way of '
selling straw to an advantago, there
should begreatercare than usually exists
in putting it in well-made stacks and
usingit with economy. Haled straw can be
and is carried long distances by rail, and
if the straw is well kept there is pretty i
sure some time in the year to be a market
for it. Jn a wcll-miuiu stack cut down ;
in sections mere is little loss in Winter
,lBd it is much more convenient for sell
ing tnan to increase the entire stack.
Whan straw is frozen in solid chunks, as
it is apt to be by the latter m. thod, it is
not even in good condition to use as bed
ding. It will pay to give enough cat e to
preserving straw to have it always in
good order to handle easily.
Some excellent farmers make good use
of straw as protection against cold in cov
ering shed, where stem is kept. Une of
the best means of doing this is to make
a platform set on posts six feet high out
of the ground, ami Imild the slack over
this, leaving one side open for animals to
go in aim out. Jt is as warm as a base-
ment barn, and comparatively incxpeu-
sive. In a well mudv stack the, water
will run down tho siies, leaving ihe in
I tcrior dry. Animals running in this pro
i tectcd enclosure will keep it comfortable

Salt I-'or Slock.
The testimony is unanimously in
favor of the use of suit as a condiment,
and of feedjni; it regularly to animals.
Dr. Dalton says: 'Kxpirienee bus
shown that animals when rnniLrlv
plied with a proper allowance of suit, are
kel,t ln m better cond tion iIihii when
I thv "re feJ onlv w th ll!1.v. Kri' and
I f'ber vejttalj.c substances." Dr. Smith,
uu lLiignsn amnoriiv on foods, savs:
'Hoth the chlorine and the sodium' of
which salt is composed are part of the
elements of the body, ami are not
yielded in sullicient quantity by the
foods w hich we eat, and hence we crave
for a further supply. Tln ie is iw oilier
compound of cliloiine which could sup
plant common salt.'' 1 rofi-sxor i. li.
Arnold, our best American authoiity on
dairy inatturs, if not the best in tho
world, sajs: 'Sidt ought nt all times
to enter into the food of the dairy cow,
and it should be kept where she can
partake of it . ' i.lill-m. lioth ihe
quant ty aud the quality of the milk are
. onsidtTubly allected by w.thholdii-g
suit till the cows g.-t hungry for it.
l ows, intheseison of laotai.ou. re uire
more salt than at other times, und those
that give the uio.-t milk require them-ist
of it. lu some experiments in June,
it was found thut, by Jcu.ng tho cows
go without salt for five days, they
tell oil in thair milk two pr cnu ia
quantity, and 7 per cent, in quality,
making a loss of 9 per cent, on the
cheese, which was at onco restored by
supplying salt again." All cattle foods
contain somo salt, from a trace to about
one-half of ono per cent., and all spring
water contains sait, which it leaches from
the earth. Common hay often contains
0. ! :t per cent, of salt, clover hay 0.84,
and oat straw 0. 14. Hut this is not
sufficient. Dr. Knglehardt says: "If we
compare the quantity of chloride of so
dium, or salt contained in the ash con
stituents of tho vegetable- food of our
farm stock, w.th tho amount that is
found in the ash of their blood, it will
strike us perhaps as something remarka
ble that the quantity of salt in the latter
in tho ash of their blood is always
much greater than in the former the
ath of their food:" while the amount of
salt in their urine compares more nearly
to that in their food, (starving animals
cease to excrete salt, but retain it in the
blood. Hence it is concluded that "salt
is absolutely necessary in the animal
economy." Salt aids the liver in
secreting bile. The bile, one of
the most important aids to diges
tion, contains soda, one of tho
constituent - of salt. It is an indepen
dent constituent of the cartilages of the
body. Hence, l'rof. James M. Johns
ton says: "Mint, the supply of salt,
therefore, and neither will tho bile be
able pioporly to assist digestion, nor the
cartilages to be built up again as faft ns
tbry naturally waste." I'rof. Yoit says,
salt quickens circulation and increases
tho oxydiition of albumen; and Dr.
Julius I chnian holds that: "Of special
importance is salt, not only for the entire
process of digestion," but it "serves in
the st mach as the material for hydro
chloric ncid, which is one of the most
powerful means of d gestion." As a
constituent of the blood, salt draws to
itself moisture and keeps the blood lim
pid, thus aiding its circulation. Dr.
Clover concludes that it "provokes an
increase in muscular strength, and so far
is capable of counterbalancing the elfects
of insufficient nutrition." Dr. Locellcs
says: "Common salt is almost as indis
pensable to man ami animals as tho air
they breathe. It facilitates digestion,
aids powerfully tho oxydation of the
blood and the a-similution of food, and
may lie well considered as the digestive
aui inry to the coarser aliments of the
poor." To quote l iof. Arnold aunin, be
siys; "The percentage of salt in cow's
milk is generally greater than the per
cent ige of salt in her food, and as a
large and unnatural flow is induced by a
long (ourse of artificial training, her
food becomes ordinarily incapable of
supplying her with the quantity required
to peifcct her milk." The quantity of
salt reqti red varies with the food and
other i onditions. Tho commission of
the French Hovernnient recommende.i
two ounces a day for a working ox or a
milch cow. Dr. I'hipson, an English
authority, says a milch cow requires four
ounces of salt a 'ay. Finally, Professor
Coessmann sums up the whole question,
as follows: "Salt does not increase di
rectly tho live weight, jet if it favors an
economic il digestion and assimilation of
the requisite normal amount of food;
and it allows us, if desirable, to feed our
stock high, without incurring n par
ticular corresponding risk. It enables
us thus to shoiten the time for getting
our live stock up to a desirable market
value, and assists us, under certain cir
cumstances, to dispose advantageously
of a larger proportion of other farm
pioducts, ns grain, hay, etc., in the
form of live weight." V i irie Farme r.

BECAUSE it is so unusually haiulsome and attractive in appear
ance, many persons think the Ivoky Soap is intended for toilet
use only. While it may be used for the toilet with pleasant and
satisfactory results, it is a laundry soap in all that the name implies.
Trof. Silliman, of Yale College, says: "As a laundry soap the
Ivory has no superior."
A WORD OF WARNING.
There tre many white toaps, each represented to be "Just as good as the ' Ivory' "
they ARE NOT, but tike all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of
the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.

A COLD EUaiNEZHBOOK AGENTS
Heretofore Canya8sirjf Book Apents Lave met with many obstacles, so many, that scarce one man in on
hundred becomes successful in tbe work.
The chief reason for this lies in the stubborn fact that nnv ONE book offered by the Apent is sure to b
rejected, bv a lnrpe majority of those solicited to buy it, BECAUSE it in A BOOK NOT WANTED.
Thus the Apent has the hard work to do of CREATING THE WANT, before he has any chance of
euecting a sale. It stands to reason, then, that if the Agent could overcome this one difficulty, his success would
be easier. MY nXTES'VST X-M
Has been formed to equip the Afrent with a " CANVASSING OUTFIT," that will fully explain OVER 20O
01FFERENT BOOKS. books that are so woll known that onlv the authors and titles need be mentioned to
creute a desire to ossebsut least ONE book out of the MORE THAN TWO HUNDRED EXHIBITED.
