TO ITIM'.K A DRY IHTfn.
A very ueful thing for a farmer to
know is how to utilize a dry ciitch, and
in California they have an excellent way
of doing it. After the water is turned
out in early summer, instead of allowing
the banks to become a swamp of weeds,
to his own detriment and the undoing
of those below, the farmer plows the
hanks and the bottoms of tlio ditch and
plants pumpkins therein. Supposing
his ditch runs, say, for three-quarters of
a uiilc, he raises frjin fifty to 100 waou
loads of pumpkins of the lurgest kind.
After they arc gathered in the fall and
the vines are dry ho dumps them into
litch ani sets lire to them. The result
is a dit:h as clean as a garden-walk.

IS TAll TAlTH INJURIOCSt
Edwin Fox, i.aton County, Mich.,
desfres information whether tar felt op
plied to the stem of applo trees, as a
protection against rabbit, will prove in
jurious. For many years we have used
the ordinary tarred building and rooting
paper and felt for wrapping the stems of
npple, quince and peach trees to protect
them against the attacks of borers, but,
up to the present hour, we have never
discovered that the bark under these
wrappings was injured by the tar. We
renew these whippings every two years
nnd on removing the old ones have
always found the bark clean and
healthy. Wo have, however, known
healthy trees killed by applying fresh
warm coal tar direct to the stems and
bark, aud probably made raper or felt,
with the tar dripping from it, might
prove injurious, but no dry paper,or one
well cured, can possibly injure your
trees, and it will prevent the rabbits
from gnawing the bark. American

MANAGEMENT OF ROADS IN WrSTEIl.
I he breaking ot roads in deep snow
is best done by drawing a heavy roller
over the snow. This packs down the
snow and makes a hard surface, on which
horses and sleds may run without - sink
ing, ana tue packing down in this way
avoids the inconvenience cf piling up on
each side of the road and running in a
gulley, as is dono when the roads aro
worked out with a snow plow. The
roller should bo ten feet long and six
feet in diameter, and made in sections of
five feet, so as to be turned with ease.
The rollers nrs covered by a frame hav
ing a seat for tbo driver and assistants
nnd for the tools that may be needed in
any emergency, such as shovels, blankets
for the horses aud for the men, if the
weather becomes very cold. At suitable
distances turnouts should be made, where
teams may pass each other, and these
should be within sight of each other, so
that a meeting may not bo made in a
narrow place. Where the travel is suf
ficient to require it, a doublo road should
be made. Jnew York Times.
WHEN THE MILK IS FIT FOR USE.
A variety of opinions and notions are
entertained regarding the use of the milk
for culinary purposes, or for drinking
that from tho newly-calved cows, says
the Indiana Farmer. No established
rule Beems to be in force, and the interval
between calving and using the milk varies
from three milkings to nine days, each
dairyman having a theory ot his own to
determine the time required before the
milk is "good." On account of these
ideas, and in the absence of positive
proof, and the knowledge of how to do
a great deal of profitable milk is
sacrificed or thrown away under the sup-
position that it is not healthy and is un
fitted for human food. A simple way
to scttlA tho question and dispel all
doubts is to place a small quantity of
milk in a vessel upon the stove, allow it
to come to a boil, and if no appearance
of curdling is present, the milk is all
right. Heat at boiling point produces
the change that makes visible to the eye
the condition when it is proper to use
the milk, and in no other way except
bv the more difficult process of analysis,
or by guess can this be ascertained. It
will be found generally, If no other con
ditions are normal, and the milk is from
a cow in perfect health that curdling,
under the treatment described, will dis
appear after the third or iourth milking
from the time the calf was dropped, aud
wheu this occurs the milk may, witu
entire confidence, be utilized iu any way
desired. tanner lteview.
WANTED, IIKTTEB FLOWMEH.
It is hardly too much to say that good
plowing is the foundation of good f aim
ing. In the good oiu times, when State
and county funs were novelties, plowing
mutches were frequent aud pouulur. AYe
hud poorer plows, perhaps, but in many
section, at least, we ceitiiiuly had better
plowmen. Farmers' sous competel at
the plowing matches, aud Scotch nud
Kuglish plowman astonished us by tho
skillful maimer in which they turned
straight aud regulur lup-furrows. "Hut,"
we asked, "what is tho good f" Iu our
climate, and with modern harrows, pul
verizers, und urniu. drills, such furrows
are seldom of auy special benefit, while
frequently a flat wide furrow will better
witUstuud thought. We wanted to plow
faster, aud get iu the crops, lie was
the best plowman who could turu over
two or three acres u day. Perhaps we
plow too wide a furrow, but there is not
much possibility of our plowing narrower
unless we use plows thai will turu two or
three furrows at ouco.
But w need better plowing. Look at
many of our fields of oats and barley any
year. It is not too much to say tint a
really clean field is an exception, white
patches of thistle are the rule. They
are a growing evil. Notwithstanding
the fact that we have better implement
for pulverizing lnnd and preparing it fof
the sccd,and better cultivators for work
ing among the crops, and really do work
our land better than formerly, yet Can
ada thistles are on the increase, and the
reason is largely poor plowing. With
out desiring to go into dotails, we would
like to ask every farmer to look carefully
to his plow points. The plow goes in on
the light, sandy land, but when It comes
to a hard spot it slides over, and there,
sooner or later, will be found a patch of
thistle. Look to your points. Ameri

EFFECTS OF FROST OS PLANTS.
Frost kills or injures plants in more
ways than one, writes Carol Floss. In my
observation, especially of te ndcr plants,
I have found that the effects of frost
vary in proportion to their more or less
watery natuio and to tho condition in
regard to moisture overhead and at the
roots in which they may happen to be at
the time when thoy get frozen. Borne
plants will bear cold to an almost in
credible extent, provided water is with
held. On this point I am sustained by t
well-known English authority, who tells
of having seen lurgo examples of Agav
Americana that have stood in pots for a
whole year or more without water until
their leaves became shrivelled, bear at
much frost without being affected ai
would have killed them had they been
plump nnd full of moisture. The harder
kinds ot Echcveria are in like manner in
different to a considerable amount of
cold when their roots and tops are quite
dry.
But this condition of dryness may
easily be pushed too far in the case of
some kinds of plants, especially such hi
are grown in pots and which if the soil
has been allowed to get so dry that they
are in a stagnant, feeble state, are often
killed by cold, when if the roots had
been in a more moist condition little in
jury would have resulted. This applies
more particularly to plants of a non-succulent
character, such as ferns and many
greenhouse species that contain a large
proportion of fibre in their branches and
stems. Shrubby Calceolarias growing in
pots, with the soil in a moderately moist
state, suffer little when caught by frost
that would have killed them had they
been in soil too dry to keep the leaves
crisp and plump. The Lemon Verbena
will bear several degrees of frost when
the soil is in a half moist state, but if
dry when frozen it rarely recovers.
Numbers of other plants might bo
named that are very susceptible to injury
from frost when the soil in which their
roots arc placed is too dry,thus showing
that although many plants will bear a
low temperature when the soil about
their roots is quite dry, there are others
to which the principle does not apply.
So far from being able to stand more
frost when their energies are stagnated
fiom waut of water they suffer in pro
portion to the extent to which thoir dry-
ng process has ucon earned. new

Near a good market ducks can often
be made more profitable than chickens,
especially when an incubator is used in
batching.
To produce a large market fowl, one
that fattens readily and is easily con

A breed that may be best in one
locality will not always prove best in an
other. Select according to locality as
well as purpose.
Coal ashes are good to scatter under
the roosts. The objection to wood
athes is that they aro too caustic, often
injuring the feet.
Unless they are provided with quarters
something better than the averago, it is
a positive cruelty to pick either ducks or

While ducks will usually begin to lay

B FECIAL LKU1KLATION VROED.
Professor Jolley, Director of the insanity
wards in the Cliarite Hospital at Berlin, has
issued a pamphlet in which he urges the ab
solute necessity of special legislation against
habitual drunkards, on the ground that tba
statistics of insanity show a direct ratio to
those of Intemperance. In the Hhine prov
inces, the percentage of insane persons who
bad lost their reason through excessive
drinking was twenty-eight, and in Berlin
and Alsace as much as thirty-three. Taking
a general average for the wine and schnapps
drinking districts, Professor Jolley reckons
that twenty-five per cent, among the in
mates of asylums have been inebriates. Dis
cussing the section of the new bill which
enacts that habitual drunkards shall be shut
up until cured, he insists that this authority
shall be committed to medical men, and not
to magistrates only. He says that in the
asylums for inebriates hitherto existing,
medical direction has been almost entirely
wanting. '.Throughout his pamphlet he
maintains the proposition that drunkenness
should not be regarded as a punishable
offence, but as an iuhruiity. Tna retreat
for inebriates should, he says, be no prison,
but something between a hospital aud a luua
tic asylum. It should be governei by medi
cal men, and perous should only bs consigned
to it by doctors' oertitioates.

About Cabbages.
So far as known, the original cabbage
is indigenous to the shores of several
countries in northern Kurope, and it is
said to be found even at this day on tho
coasts of Great Britain. Some of tho
old herbalists of two centuries ago in
form us that people living near the scn
shoro preferred the wild cabbage to that
grown in gardens. It is supposed, and
probably it is a fact, that nil tho many
varieties of the cultivated cabbnge cole-
wort, borecole, Scotch knlo, caulillowcr
and broccoli nre descended from the
wild cabbage of the seashore, the change
having been wrought by cultivation dur
ing many centuries. Tho cauliflower
clilleis from the common cabbage In pro.
ducing a mass of metamorphosed fiowers
in place of a compact head of leaves.
In tho Isluud of jersey there is a tall
growing variety of the wild cabbage,
with stems ten or more feet in height,
terminated by a small head of compact
leaves, or, in other words, a small cab
bage. The broccoli aud cauliflower
have been in cultivation in Italy and
Franco during the past three centuries,
nnd theso vegetables probnbly originated
in one of these countries. New York

ing aud painful case.
uospoRT, ina., jan. hu, ibub.
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Biniihamton. N. Y.
I do not know bow to express my heartfelt
thanus to you lor tne oeueut l nave received
from using your Hwamp-itoot Kidney Liver
aud Bladder Cure. I am now U3 years old,
and have suffered almost death for abcut
three years. I had given up to die. but as I
profess to be a Christian man and a great be
liever in the prayer of the righteous, 1 prayed
that God would send something that would
prolong my lire, and 1 feel thaukful to Hun
and you fur tbe means that was sent. May
God spare your life many years yet that you
may near tne great goou tnat your medicine
is doing. On the 20th day of August, lfilll.
Mr. rank Lawson. your agent at Hpencer,
persuaded me to take a bottle on trial. I
nave taken three bottles aud it has brought
out of my bladder lime or gravel, which I
bave saved in quantity tne size ot a goose
egg and I now leel like a new man. May
God bless you and your medicine.
1 remain your humble servant,
Box 273. Geobob U. Cradick.
SECOND LKTTKIt.
Dear Doctor I take great pleasure in
answering your letter, which I received to
day. You say "you would like to publish
my testimonial in your Guide to Health for
a while," I have no objections at all for I
want to do all in my power for alflicted hu
manity. 1 send by this mail a lot of tbe
Gravel (about one-half of what I saved) that
the Hwamp-Hoot dissolved and expelled from
my bladder.
Two years ago last September I was takeu
with paiu almost all over me, my head and
back, my legs aud feet became cold, would
get sick at my stomach and vomit often,
suffering a great deal from chills and at
times these were so severe that I thought I
would freeze to death. Tbe condition of my
urine was not so bad through tbe day, but
during the night, at times, 1 bad to get up
everv hour, aud often every half hour.
Would urinate sometimes a gallon a night,
then it seemed my kidneys and back would
kill me. 1 bad been trouoiea witn consti
pation for many years, but since using your
bwauip-Hoot have been better than for a
long time. The medicine has helped my
aptwtite wonderfully aud it seems as though
1 could not eat enough.
I live about six miles in the country from
(iotqiort. I was born and raised here, and
bave been a member of the M. . Church for
forty-two years.
pardon me for writing so much for I feel
that I would never get through praising your
great remedy for Kidney, Liver and Bladder
troubles. Your true frieud,
Those who try Swainp-Root have gener
ally first employed the family physician, or
used all tbe prescriptions within their reach
without beuelit. As a last resort, when their
case has become chronic, the symptoms com
plicated aud their constitution run down,
then they take this remedy, and it is just
such casus ui cures as the one above that
have made Bwauip-Koot famous and given
it a world-wide reputation. At Druggists

CatarrhRemove the Cause
I was afflicted from infancy with Catarrh, and for ten years with eruptions on my facft
I was attended by the best physicians, and ued a number of Blood remedies with no per
manent relief. MY LIFE BECAME A BURDEN TO ME, for my case was declared incurable.
I saw S. S. S. advertised, and took eight bottles, which cured me entirely, and I feel like
a new person. Miss Josib Owen, Alontftlier, Ohio.
I was the victim of the worst case of Catarrh that I ever heard of. I was entirely
deaf in one ear, and all the inside of my nose, including part of the bone, sloughed oft
No sort of treatment benefited me, and physicians said "I would never be any better." Ai
a last resort I took Swift's Specific, and it entirely cured me and restored my hearing. I
have been well for years, with no sign of return of the disease. Mrs. JosEMtlNB, Toi.HILL,

disease by removing tho cause of It
It's with tbe liver or the blood, nine
times out of ten. A sluggish liver
makes bad blood and bad blood
makes trouble. Dr. Pierce's Gold
en Medical Discovery makes pur
blood. It invigorates the liver and
kidneys, rouses every organ into
healthful action, and cleanses and
renews the -whole system. Through
the blood it cures. For Dyspepsia,
Indigestion, Biliousness, Scrofulous,
Skin and Scalp Diseases even
Consumption (or Lung-scrofula) in
its earlier stages, it s a certain
remedy.
Nothing elso is "just as good."
Anything "just as good" could bo
sola just as this is. It's the only
blood-purifier that's guaranteed to
boncfit or cure, in every case, or th
money is refunded.
The catarrh that isn't cured costs"
$500. Not to yow, but to the pro
prietors of Dr. Sago's Catarrh Rem
edy. They promise to pay you tho
money, if you have an incurable
case.
They don't believe that you havo
