    THE WORLD'S BEVERAGES.
QUEER LIQUIDS THAT ABE
TIONAL DRINKS.
NA-
Ihry Are Vanfilly Derived From Some
Indigenous VoRrlnblo Product
i The I',)hormin' Spruce Hcor.
The drinks or beverages of the people
of all countries are uminlly derived from
lome indigenous vegetable product, such
u grains, roots, the sap of trees, the
juice of fruits, etc., and it would seem
as if many of thce must have been
popular for unknown generations.
lu some localities cider is popular and
cheap; the percentage of alcohol iu cider
ranges from 51 to nine per cent., the
latter proportion, however, being largely
exceeded in the very "lmrd varieties.
Tho production of cider iu France varies
considerably year by year. It is largely
protluitctl, however, and principally con
sumed in the country districts, very little
being exported. The best cider is said
to be made in Normandy, where it was
Introduced many years since by the
Moors; but cider is made in no fewer
than fifty-four departments of France.
Cider and perry (tho latter being made
from pears) are also largely made in
England ; while in tho United States and
tho Dominion of Canada tho former is
very largely produced. In Chili, after
making cider and wine from their apples,
they ext. act from the refuse a white and
Bnely flavored spirit, aud by another pro
cess they procure a sweet syrup, or, as
they term it, honey. When properly
fermented and prepared, the black mul
berry yields a vinous liquor. In the cider
counties of England mulberries are
lometimes mixed with apples to fonn
beverage known as mulberry cider.
Tho fisbeimen of Newfoundland,
LaJrador, and the Gulf of St. Lawrence,
and indeed many of tho people living in
that region, drink large quantities of
tpruce beer. It is considered a correc
tive of the fishermen's diet, which con
lists largely of salt pork and fish.
In New Zealand a drink somewhat rc
lembling spruce beer is made from the
twigs of tho dracrydiura taxifolium; it
was used by Captain Cook. From tho
lap of tho birch tree some of the tribes
nf Northern Hussia prepare their ordin
ary drink, "birkenwasser," from which
they also make vinegar; and iu some
districts they boil it iuto a sweet syrup,
which serves them instead of sugar. For
those who are too pool to drink beer or
mead, this northern wi&e is the ouly
potive drink.
A drink delightfully acid and refresh
ing is made in Brazil from the pulp of
the capsule which envelopes the seed of
the cacao theobroma. The saccharine
liquor extracted from the uuexpanded
flowers of the lta palm of British Guiana
is said to afford a liquor resembling
champagno in its briskness. Tho sap of
the Sontar palm is obtained from the
items of the bunches of fruit wheu cut.
This liquor is drunk cither fresh or after
it has undergone alight fermentation. It
bears also the name of towak, or palm
wine. Sometimes a species of strychnos
Ls infuscd with it, which produces a
stupefying and intoxicating beverage,
told daily in the bazaars in Alolluccas, es
pecially in Amboyna, in sections of bam
boo. Taltn wines are common in most
warm climates. In the Eastern Archi
pelago the wine is obtained from the
gomuti palm.
In Ceylon, Madras, and other parts of
India toddy is obtained from the sap of
the palmyra pului, and there are two
kinds, the unfermcntcd juice called
sweet toddy, aud the fermented, or "cul
loo." The sap of the wine palm, called
"bourdon" and "lope," is much relished
by the savage tribes of West Africa.
Other of their favorite incbriants aro
"wawa" or plantain wine, aud "bombe,"
Biimll beer made of grain. The latter is
served in neutly carved aud colored
gourds, and the contents aro imbibed
through a reed. The cool, refreshing
milk of the cocoanut is highly esteemed,
and many other palms aro brought into
requisition for beverages.
Iu Siam, China, and Japan rice is the
the principal grain used for distilling,
and forms tho "lan" of Siaul, the"shon
chou" and "mandarin" wine of China,
the "sake" of Japan, and the "badek"
and "brom" of Java. In China the rice
wine they use is by no means agreeable.
It is always taken hot, and somewhat re
sembles Madeira wioe in color and taste.
. The Malays have a fermented liquor made
from rice which they call "gclang." The
Javaneso liquor, "brom," is prepared
from tho fermentation of rice, and is a
kind of beer, and not the product of dis
tillation. The fine arrack (a name de
rived from "arak," the Arabic word for
ardent spirit) is an invention and manu
facture of the Chinese, of which the ma
terials are boiled rice, molasses, and palm
wine. Sake, or rice beer, is the principal
and almost only alcoholic beverage of
Japan. Until the last two or three cen
turies sake was not manufactured on a
large scale, but each household mado its
owu supply. Now there are very large
breweries of this liquor in different parts
of the country, lucre are a great uimy
varieties of Bake to be obtained in com
merce, dillering somewhat iu taste, fla
vor aud price, aud distinguished by fancy
names. The proportion of alcohol in
sake varies from five to fifteen per cent.
The suke of Japan is very heating and
" heavy, aud appears to bo as vinous in
quality and ftrength as European ale and
beer. It is flavored with houey or sugar.
The Iudiaus of Chili make a drink of
maize or corn. Tho graiu is first baked,
theu steeped iu water for a certain time,
after which it is boiled and set by to set
tle, aud when fined it is fit to drink.
Iudiun corn is largely used for distilla
tion throughout North America, ami in
South America it appears to have been
made iuto "chiea" or maize beer, at a
very remote period, for it was a common
driuk of the Indians before the Kpauish
conquest. The liquor is suid to be of a
d irk yellow color, with au agreeable,
slightly bitter taste. It is in universal
demand on the west coast of South
America, and is consumed in largo quan
tities by tho mountain Indians. Scarcely
a single hut iu the interior is without a
jar of this favorite liquor. From the
sulks of the Indian corn a liquor is al-
I so obtained iu Mexico.
Iu some of the Kio Plata States the
' inhabitants make a liquor from the sweet
pi lsof the Algurroba (prosopis alhaj,
uhich, when uew, is refreshing, but be
come alcoholized after fermentutiou. In
some dist lie's this liquor is the principal
attraction at social meetings.
Murwa beer, which is a product of the
Himalayas, is made iu this way: Millet
iii ed is moistened and fermented for two
d iv. SulHeieut for a duy's allowance is
lin n put into a vessel of wicker work,
linod with India rublier to make it water
tight, and boiling water i poured ou it
with a ladle or gourd from a huge iron
cauldron that stands all day over the fire.
The fluid, when quito frrah, tastes like
negus or Cape sherry, rather sour.
In some part of the East a fiery Intox
ieating beverage is made of jaggerberry
(sugar), bhang (hemp), poppy seeds,
popper, rardamons and nutmeg. The
fermented fruit of the peach gives an ex
cellent brandy, which is chiefly manu
factured in the United States. In tho
southern parts of Hungary the well
known liquor"shivowitza" is mado from
the shiva plum. Tho liquor called
"maraschimo," which is chiefly manu
factured in the Itnliaa States and Dal
matia, is prepared from a variety of
cherry. From the succulent peduncle or
fruit stem of tho cashew nut an excellent
spirit has been distilled, with diuretic
properties similar to tho best Holland
pin. A wine made from it rc?erubles in
taito an ordinary claret sweetened with
sugar, and is a popular beverage among
the poorer people of South America.
The national drink of tho Mexicans is
"pulque," the fermented sap of the ms
guay, or American agave plant. After
obtaining the juice, which is still large
ly done in the primitive way by cutting
the flower stem of the plant and making
a basin, or depression, whero It is taken
from, and sucking up the juice into
reeds, which aro discharged into pig
skins, it is carried to vu made of raw
hide for fermentation. The sap, which
resembles cider, and has a very disagree
able smell, taken alone or diluted with
water, is a common sweet beverage in use
in Mexico. When fermented, this liquor
is very intoxicating, containing about
thirtv-six per cent, of alcohol. Botton

Shoes for Every Occasion.
It is easy to account for tho increased
consumption of shoes. Our ancestors of
cither sex seldom possessed more than
one pair of "best" shoes for Sun
days aud special occasions. A stout
pair mado of morocco, carefully put
away when not iu use, lasted a woman
two or three years at least. A pair of
the lighter grade of kip, or, as a luxury,
heavy calf brogans, shining under fre
quent applications of tallow, were pro
nouueed a fraud by the masculine wearer
if they gave out beyond hope of repair
inside of the second year for dress occa
sions. With these old timers there
were but two specific kinds of footgear.
Now we have shoes for almost every pur
pose, for the drawing room, bedside,
garden, street, seashore, mountain
what yon will for tenuis, walking,
jumping and sitting still in. Many peo
ple have several pairs of comparatively
new shoes at a time, because of their
cheapness, and it is an economy, for it
divides the wear among a great number.
Footwear for specific purposes is not
ouly feasible and economical, but is ad
vantageous to the feet. The man who
runs a race requires a sole that will take
a short, quick grip, and the spike pre
vent a backslide aud the loss of a race.
For a walking match a generous pressure
of the foot at ball and heel, and shoes
strictly conforming to the shape and mo
tions of the feet are requisite. The
trotter's light shell shoe would give the
Norman draught horse no purchasing
power to pull his load, and a heavy,
clumsy shoe on the trotter would lose
him tho race. Shot and Leather lie

proportionately the cheapest settled, as
the company paid only tS100(l for
about niueteeu deaths aud injuries to
about twice as many.
The collision at Hevere cost the East

It ia dangerous to try to force or push
the obstruction down. Animals hv
been killed by this process. Some dairy
men keep a limber stick with knob on
tho end to punch the obstruction down,
but this method is also a dangerous one.
A better method is to draw the animal's
head, while in a stanchion, up with a
stout rope, and fasten to the top; then,
having previously melted one-half pint
of lard, place it in a bottle while warm,
pour it down the cow's throat; she will
strugglo, and tho more violent the bet
ter, as the melted grease will make the
throat slippery, and then you can easily
work tho obstruction up with the hand.

COOKED rOOP FOR POULTRY.
Having heard much said about the ef
ficacy of cooked food in producing eggs
I have tried it, writes a New Jersey far
mer, with, 1 think, considerable success.
I boil potato parings and other stuff from
the kitchen and thicken it with wheat
bran. 1 commonly give it to the hens
cold, though many say feed warm food,
but I havo not discovered that to make
nny difference. I am quito certain that
feeding much corn is bad for laying hens
it will make fat but not eggs. For
quite a while I gave my hens no grain at
all, but always somo wheat bran with
their boiled food, and this was the time
when I got the most eggs. iVw York

TAR-WATER TOR CABBAGE WORMS,
According to no less an authority than
Mr. A. S. Fuller, tar-water is an effective
kill-cure for tho cabbage worm. It is
stated that Mr. Fuller's early cabbages
were being rapidly destroyed by these
worms, but "one sprinkling with tar
water, applied with a watering-pot, de
stroyed every worm and egg." The tar
water is prepared by placing a quart or
two of coal-tar in a tub or barrel, and
filling up with water. In about forty
eight hours the water will smell strongly
of tar, when it may be applied to the
plants with a syringe or common watering-pot.
If tar-water destroys the eggs,
as affirmed, and docs not injure the
growth nor the quality of the Cabbage,
frequent seasonable application of it,
thus destroying the eggs, would aocra to
be all that is required as a complete and
practical cabbage-worm remedy. iVcie

It is no exaggeration to say that a good
garden well cared for will furnish a largo
family with much of the food they eat
aud nearly everything except bread, meat
and butter from early in June until frosts
cut oft the supplies. If the garden bo
what it should be it will give far more
than half of tho money value of what is
consumed from tho farmer's table. It is
by making most of the advantages that
lurmers possess that they can stem the
prevailing tide from country to the city.
It ought to be stemmed; but what ad
vantage can the city resident see, if whon
he visits his farmer friends he finds some
of the family posted off in haste to tho
city to get vegetables, often canned,
which n little care and labor on the
farmer's part would enable him to supply
from his own garden. It is true tho farmer
says he cannot spare the time. Why can
not hot Simply because he devotes so
much of bis labor to growing crops,
which after selling do not leave him
enough to pay his hired help. That
alone ought to satisfy him that a chaugo
in the programme is needed. Suppose
next year he concludes to grow less to
sell, to hire less help and devote more of
his own time to tho garden. It is, or
ought to bo, the richest spot on his
farm, and will pay better than any other
for the labor bestowed upon it. Button

It has been generally taught by our
best farmers lhat it was wrong to pasture
meadows in the fall and that the best re
sults could ouly be attained by allowing
the aftergrowth to go down to protect
the roots in winter and to enrich the toil
for future production, says S. E. Rice in
Xiete England Jlomeitcad. Assenting to
that theory without bringing it to the
test of experiment was the greatest
mistake that I ever made in farming.
To-day I assert that it is only theory, and
that actual experiment on many farms
will prove it a false theory. Twenty
years ago, while keeping a diary of fifty
to sixty cows, my practice was strictly in
accordance with this theory and no pas
turing of meadows in the fall was al
lowed. A friend of mine, one of the
best farmers of my acquaintance, told
me that my practice was wrong and took
me to one of his fields to show an ex
periment, proving that the removal of
the second growth was no detriment to
the succeeding crop. He had moved and
removed the second growth from a part
of the field the fall before, leaving a part
uncut. The fall growth was not so heavy
as to smother or kilt the grass, aod if the
above theory were true, the succeeding
crop should have been much the best on
the uncut portion of the field. Exactly
the opposite of this was true, and when I
6aw the field just before haying tho
boundary between the two parts was plain
enough to attract the attention of anyono
passing by. Tho part from which the
fall growth had been removed I judged
to tie twenty-live per cent, bettor than
the other.
ESSF.KTIAtS IN GRAFS OROWINO.
Mildew and rot are the great obstacles
iu the way of profitable grape culture iu
this country, and whilo a knowledge of
the remedies and preventives that have
in many cases saved valuable crops is
important to any one who would engage
in grape-growing, it is even more lru
portant that the climatic conditions for
success should also be understood. The
mildew which attacks the under surface
is encouraged by dull, cloudy weather,
with occasional bhowcrs, or when heavy
(lews are ueposited where the moisture
cannot bo readily evaporated. The best
grape climate or loeatiou appears to be
where dews are light or altogether ab
seut. Iobtunces are given where grapes
on a trellis under cover have escaped
mildew uud rot, while thoso nearby, but
without protection, have sultered. Per
sous who train vines up the side of i
house under the eaves of a projecting
roof, find the most perfect fruit at the
highest point, where it is least exposed
to rain aud dew.
Tho favorable locations for grape cul
turc will usually be fouud either sur
rounded by large bodies ot water that
modify the climatic conditions of their
islands and the shore districts of the main
lauds, or ou hillsides at sertain eleva
tlons. As stated in a Government re
port, where hills and valleys are closely
and distinctly defined there exists at cer
tain elevations on the hillside a cone oi
belt whero dews are light or unknown
and where frosts are modified. This
tone existi in all countries that are trav
ersed by high mountains and deep val
leys. In a paper read before the American
Horticultural Society on "Horticulture
in tho Mountain Regions of the South,"
it is said there aro as many of those belts
as there are ridges on hills or knobs
reaching two or threo hundred feet above
the lovol of tho adjacent valleys, and
where localities are found ranging from
200 to 1000 feet above the general sur
faco of tho country, there is greater or
less immunity from spring frosts. Fur
thermore, tho mountains are less subject
to heavy dews than tho lower grounds,
and for this reason better adapted to the
growth of the vines.
For any extensive culture of the graps
the importance of selecting a location
favored by nature cannot be overesti
mated. Where mildew and rot prevail
successful grape culture cannot be attained
without constant and expensive vigilance
in tho application of preventives, which
even under good management do not
always fully protect. Ate Tork World.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Farm for profit.
Keep up the fertility.
Good crops reduce the cost.
Tho best astors are the transplanted
ones.
The daphne iudica requires good
drainage
Focd economically but not at the ex
pense of growth.
The cost of tho various crops will vary
almost every year.
No one season can be taken as a trne
guide for the next.
Sell stock wheucvor they aro fully
ready, irrespective of price.
In threshing take pains to see that all
the straw is stacked carefully.
Latania borbouica palms are widoly
used for decorativo purposes.
Summer pruning is the best if fol
lowed up properly every year.
With hogs a quick growth and early
maturity determines the profit.
After all the crops arc all harvested is
a good time to haul out manure.
Tie up roses and chrysanthemums and
carnations before they bond and break.
Very comfortable quarters must be
provided if pigs are wintered over with
profit.
Allowing fruit to go to waste is to loso
part of the farm profits that should be
saved.
In a majority of cases it will be better
to buy whatever bran is needed early in
the fall.
Pinching the ends of fuchias not
only improves shape,but gives abundance
of flowers.
The new abutilon eclipse not only has
fine foliago but retains its blossoms and
blooms freely.
Bran can be fed to the milk cows
nearly every day in the year with profit if
milk is an item.
While there is time see that plenty
of shelter is provided for all the stock
that is to bo wintered over.
If you want to get swamp muck tho
dry summor time is the best to do it in.
The muck is lighter when dry.
After the stables and sheds are thor
oughly cleaned out a good coat of white
wash will make them healthier.
The quality of fodder for feeding is
often considerably lessened by allowing
it to get too ripe before cutting.
A cheap hog and poultry house can
readily be made to return a good profit,
have water, dry and convenient.
If you have nothing better lay in a
good supply of dry earth to use as an ab
sorbent in your stables when needed.
Apply limo whitewash in your stables.
your hen house, your pig pen and evory-
whero tiiat insects can lay their nits.
During the cool weather in the early
fall is tho best time for fattening hogs,
and they should be pushed as rapidly as
possible.
Two items are important in draining.
One is to secure a good outlet and the
other is to provide a regular descent for
the water.
Cut oats as soon as the meat in the
kernel gets doughy. The straw will
then be bright and about as good to feed
as timothy nay.
Cornmeal is excellent for fatteniug
pigs, but it needs to have fed with it
something more nitrogenous to make
muscle and promote growth.
Always leave a strip for mowing be
tween your growing crop and the pasture
fence. It will prevent cattle from reach
ing over aud breaking the fence.
Do not be afraid to furnish your cows
sliade for fear they will not feed
enough. They make milk when chewing
the cub and not when filling the
stomach.

He brought it something to eat every

to school a long distance off, and he was
at ram that nobody else would give it
anything to cat, and that it would die,
The Duke, however, consoled him by
saying that he would himself see the toad
well lea, and by further promising to
let the boy hear as to its walfare. During
the time the boy was away at school he
received no less than five autograph
letters similar to that given above, and
when ho returned for the Christmas holi
