It is dangerous to the sheep nnd the men who dip them. A better dip is made of one pound of roarsc tobacco or the stems steeped in boiling water, but not boiled, along with four ounces of sulphur for each gallon of water. When reduced to 120 degrees by slow cooling, being cov ered up meanwhile, it is ready for se. Fifty gallons will be enough for fifty sheep if a tank no larger than is necessary to tnke in the sheep is used, and five or ten gallons is kept hot to replenish the liquid as it is used. POT-GROWN STRAW BERRIES. Tho so-called potted strawberry plant are grown by rooting runners in small pots about two inches in diameter. These are filled with rich soil and soon become filled with a mass of roots. The plants are shaken out of the pots and wrapped in moss, and arc thus sent safely to much greater distances than rooted runner plants taken from the beds. They grow on when planted without any check, and when set out in the fall will bear a full crop the next spring. They nrc usually sold for twice to four or "five times as much as runner plants. They arc not ready for distribution until Julv. A potted plant set out in July or August will make several runners which can be grown in the same way and transplanted in the fall, nnd so in the end this is really the cheapest way to get n stock for fruiting the next season. JYeio l'ort Timet. rEATHF.I!-EATIXn IN rOVLTRY. There is a bad fault with some poultry termed feather-eating. I believe that idleness is one of the principal causes of that vice, and that poultry should be kept busy in some way. A short time ago a friend of mine, who has a number of varieties of fine poultry, asked me to go down nnd look at his hens, they were picking the feathers from each other so badly. I noticed one old hen had picked nt another till tho blood rau. He wanted mo to see what I could do with them and I took home half a dozen nnd put them in a place where they w ere w arm and the sun shone in, and I put a lot of corn there nnd covered it up so they had to scratch for it. Then I took a mixture of lard nnd carbolic acid nnd tincture of mix, which you know is not very sweet, and and with a swab I went over" those chick ens. One of the. hens made a peek at tho swab, but she didn't like it. Due day I went out to watch those chickens. They still had a disposition to pitch into each otUsr, still they would pick a feather out nnd drop it nnd not seem to like it, nnd I have a hope that I am going to break up the habit. HOW TO DEHORS. Mr. II. M. Seott, of Scott Countv, Kan., sends the Prairie Farmer his mode of dehorning cattle, which is as follows: "We have tikcn the horns oil our herd of cattle, and can recommend dehorning to the readers of tho Prairie Farmer. I made a chute one foot wide nt bottom, flaring at tho sides to admit the largest animals; twenty-four feet long, with stanchion at one end, six iuchcsVide, to fasten the neck in. Then we put on a halter to hold the head down, by a pole with a short chain with hook on, to fasten to the halter. AVc next placed the end of the polo under the cross pieces of the stanchion frame and held the he;id down on a cross piece of 2x4 scanning, laid under the head nnd lying on a rest fastened to the posts at each side. Then we attached a rope to one of the side posts, nnd put it over the animal's head, ubove the eyes, using two rings on the rope that come on each side of the head. "We passed one end under the jaws, nnd drew through the rings and fastened to a post of the stanchion frame on the other side, to keep the head from moving side ways. Thus the animal was securely con fined. Wetting the hair and rubbing it back out of the way of tho saw, tho operation wim then quickly done. Then by taking oil the hulter and rope, re moving the scantling and lifting the 'stir rup that holds the movable stanchion so that it could full back, the animal walks out and the next is placed in the chute. By such an arrangement we took otf 10U horns in a day." WATER FOR CHOI'S. More and more attention is being given to the need of supplying plenty of water to growing plants. The importance of water is shown by the fact that plants contain from seventy-eight to eighly-rive, and in some instances, us hiyh as ninety' tive per cent, of water, showing thaj water is by far tiio most important con stituentof their growth. The plant dur ing growth is constantly evaporating water through its liav.i, mciiik, and at every pore, aud the surface soil is giving oil water in vupr all the time." The quantity of water required by a growing crop is hiinply immense. If mi. r tails to be supplied thu growth is checked and nually comes to a standstill, and UieU the plants begin to wilt and dry up. if lns been caeulated that the produetiou of one pound of wheat requires ihe evaporation of seven hundred or eila lmn.lic.l pounds of water during the growth of the plants.

The use of benzine has been found jffectual in France in destroying the white grubs (the liirvro of the May or dor hug), which often do immense damage, rspecinlly in dry seasons, to lawns, straw berry plants, seedling plants nnd other nursery stock. Holes are mnde in the ground infested with the grubs with one of the sharp iron dibbles used sometimes in transplanting small plants, nnd the benzine is poured into them. Fifty grains of benzine are used to the square yard, and care is taken to insert it above the plane of tho feeding grovind of the grubs. In an experiment recently made by one of the French forest officers, and reported at a meeting of tho National Agricultural Society, the grubs on twelve acres were destroyed at a cost of only $3.20 per acre. rosD l.n.iF.s Fon the i.aww. One of the most beautiful lawn orna ments, says a writer in tho New York Tribune, is a tank of white pond-lilies (N'ymphea odorata). An excavation is made in the earth, round, square or any geometrical figure to suit the fancy, and tho bottom and sides are walled and cemented, leaving a clear depth of three feet. Into this is placed a foot and a half of black or dark sediment from tho bottom of some pond or sluggish stream. The lily roots nrc laid on this and another six inches of the same sediment on top; boards nre then covered over all and weighed down, and the tank filled with rain water. At the end of two weeks the weights and boards arc removed. As the water evaporates more is added, keeping the tank full all the time. This should be done about May 1 in the latitude of New York. When in bloom it is a beauty, pure white blossoms send ing their delicious fragrance all about. covering seed. There are certain principles governing the germination of seeds and the nfter irrowth of the ulants. and not- onlv is it of great importance to the farmer to uiuiersianu tuese, out ntteution to them is nlso of vital moment to the plant itself. Seed must be germinated in the dark until the young roots are sufficiently formed to begin to feed, because, if ex posed to the liuht thev nrow of n m-.,n color, which does not belong to roots.but only to the upper parts of the plant those parts which grow in the light. Hoots having a great epidermis cannot feed, because the green color is prelim inary to the formation of bark, which is meant to exclude moisture and not to absorb it. When seed nre sown broad cast over the field, nnd then covered so lightly as to allow the sun's rays to reach them, instead of forming healthy roots, cniable of imliibinp- nourishments from the soil, they become incapable of feed ing because the mouths of the roots have grown up sealed, as it were, by the change to an incipient bark, which, if the exposure to light continues, finally be come a perfect bark, by which their whole character is changed. t'rops grown from seeds scautly covered stui'er from starvation at the moment of germination, which is continued by natural circumstances so long or so far into the life of the plant as to obstruct its "-rowth in everv atmr.. Tim mm. sequences an; a feeble plant, having its grow wig pcriou iurown into me season for tillimr un. and finullv its i-iiuminn . j t season thrown into so late a part of tho year as to compel it to produce weak, shrunken and immature frrnin at n t;wi beyond its natural time of harvest.

They are planted in some out of the n.i.y piuee, or moug a ieneo wuere at uest they can be cultivated or hoed only on one side. They are pruned spasmodically, or not at all, aud soou become a tangled mass of weeds, dead wood, moss covered trunks, or branches with a stunted growth of shoots on top and the feeblest cluster of buds on the two-year-old wood. At best such a row of currant bushes can give ouly a poor crop of the smallest fruit. But after the currant worm at tacks them and strips oil the leaves the em-ants wither up and are not worth pick ing. Currants should have as good cul tivation as corn or potatoes, and this w ith a coat of manure or a top dressing of superphosphate and nitrate of soda has a wonderful effect. The pruning consists in rutting out. the old branches, strip ping out all tho suckers (except two 01 three to be left to form new branches), ami in the fall or spring cutting back the shorts or suckers about one-half. The weaker they are the niorc should they he shortened back. The best way to renovate an old row of currant bushes is to set out new ones where you can eulivate on both sides ol the row. Meantime, if you do not wish to 1 t out tho old ones, give them a se vere pruning, and either hoe or fork the ground to kill the grass and weeds oi cover the ground thick enough with ma nure or mulch to smother the grass and weeds; or, better still, sow three or foul ounces of equal parts of nitrate of soda un.l suph. rphosphate to euch bush. Scat ter ii broadcast ou the land for a distance of two or three feet on each side of the low. The earlier this is done in the spiing the better, and if not done till the bu-hes are in full leaf avoid sprinkling the fertilizer on the leaves, as it some times burns them. Hecollect, however, l hai these fertilizers are not substitute tor hoeing or mulching. If the weeds and gras aie left to grow they will take the lion's share of the nitrates and phos phates. Hut if you hoe or smother the gia.- and weeds the effect of the fertili zer w j be marked.

Burls, used in making veneers with re markable eccentricities of grain, are ex crescences that grow upon various trees, such as the walnut, rosewood, mahogany, oak aud ash. They weigh from 1000 to 6000 pounds, and the largest and best come from Persia and Cireassin, and cost in the rough from fifteen to forty cents a pound. ''Quartered'1 oak, of which so much was heard during the early part of tho ceiling investigation at Albany, is mado by sawing the oak log first into quarters and then laying the round side down and sawing each quarter up into boards. This method of working up the log gives to the boards a peculiar figure in the grain that is lacking in oak prepared in the ordinary way by cutting the w hole log up into strips. The London Lanttt vigorously con demns the use of heavy overcoats, and advocates instead the wearing of heavier underclothing. There is reason in this. A man may lose his overcoat or leave it with his uncle. Ho would not so part with his underclothing. On the other hand a man making calls could lay off his overcoat and make himself comfort able entering a warm room. It would be in bad form to so dispose of his red flannel undershirt. How a Doctor Missed a Large Fee. The late Dr. Trousseau, a celebrated Parisian physicinn, had the reputation of being exceedingly sharp after his fees, though he always declined to take any thing in the nature of a present from his clientele perhaps because he thought the acceptance of such gifts might render it more difficult for hira to exact his honor arium. Once Dr. Trousseau had been fortunate enough to cure the only child of one of the few rich members of tho French aristocracy. When the child had become convalescent and the doctor was paying his last visit, with renewed thank ful expressions and numerous appeals to heaven the mother pressed a small silken purse into Trousseau's hand. "Thank you, iimdame," he replied, "but, pardon me, I never accept presents," und he firmly rejected her offer, probably regard ing both the purse and the appeals as things of equally problematical value. "My fee, madame," he quietly ndded, is $100." Opening tho purse, Mine, la Comtesse took out the sum named, and, presenting it to Dr. Trousseau, remarked: "I am sorry you do not take presents, the purse contained $800." The loiigressioniil Library. The Congressional Library at Wash ington contains (515,781 volumes und the pamphlets number 200,000. This, of course, is the largest collection of books in the United States. It is over twice as many as are included in the Astor Li brary, where, according to last accounts, the total footed up ubout 230,000 books; aud it is five times as many us the Chi cago Public Library can boast of, where there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 140,000 volumes. One-eighth of tho books in the Congressional Library be long to the Law Department, and this division of the library is more frequently consulted than any other. There have been over 7000 volumes added to the law library during the last year nnd nearly 12,000 volumes to the general library". This muke makes a total increase of 111,. 000 books. The Toner collection has been supplemented during the bust year by thu addition of 114 books und 'Hij pumphlcts. Mail and Ejj.rtat.

Talking with a leading wholesalo grocer, the other day, ho interested mo not a littlo in describing improved methods by which raw coffee is now cleared of impurities before being ground. It first goes through n roaster. Tho roasted berry is considerably mixed with sand and grit nnd small stone. This is the principal impurity of raw coffee, and the one most difficult to remove. The latest invention for that purpose is an air shaft running from the cellar to the garret of the building in w hich it is operated. Vpward through this shaft a current of air is passed of just sufficient force to carry the roasted berry to the top tloor, but not strong enough to carry the sand nnd small stones, which drop into the base ment. As the entice rises to the top tloor, nfter being thrown in at tho bottom, it is swept, to one sido and then sent to tho grinding machine. Auo l"iri lirayhie. Sexttalily in Atoms.

He isan indefatigable invesiigator. Some time ago he declared that he had discovered sexuality in atoms that is, after examin ing the smallest fragments of inorganic matter, iron and other mineral sub stances, be had discovered certain traces that led him to believe that all atoms, animal and vegetable, nru cither male or female, and reproduce their species. The importance of such a discovery can not be estimated. If verified, nnd Mr. Kinne is contnleut that it can be verified, it means the revolution of science a new alphabet for geology, chemistry and nat tural philosophy. .Sin Francisco Call.
