It is about twelve inches long and two inches through Bt tho thickest part, flat in its general shape, and slightly concave on one side, and convex on the other, as though it had been broken off the outer surface of a much larger and rounded mass. It is entirely covered with a thick coat of rust, and weighs 25 3-4 pounds. Pro fessor Tbhormel says that, in his opin ion, it is simply a piece of ore, which has been projected by volcanic agency from the face of the moon.

The culture of flowers is tine of the most profitable of all this kind of in dustries, and at fifty cents a dor.cn for pansios, the profit will be very satis factory. To have them early, the seed should lie sow n at once in boxes in a warm room, and the small plants moved to pots, but if the seed is sown in the full, tho flowers may bo had still earlier. The most desirable way is to sow seed in the summer in the open ground on rich soil, and pot the young plants, picking off all tho flower buds as they form, until tho middle of the winter and iu time to have the flowers when they aro wanted. Then by gathering the flowers as soon as they are fully blown the plants will continue to bloom a long time. To force good flowers the plants should be kept watered with weak manure water.

Tho time for destroving tho apple worm is immediately after the petals fall, and tho spraving should lo re pented ouce or twice after the apples begin to hang down. Kxperiiueuts by E. O. Lodeman at tho New York Cor nell Station indicate that tho first ap plication of fungicides should bo made soon after the lunls open and just l fore the flowers fall. Apple trees should bo so pruned that both tho sunshine and the spraying roaches every part. Tho Bordeaux mixture reduces the in jury done by the apple scab fungus. The addition of Paris green to this mixture gave better results than when London purple was nsed. More spray' ing applications are required during wet seasons than during dry ones. The trees should bo sprayed once week during wet weather. The results show that the application of the com bination of the Bordoau mixture and Faris green or London purple was valuable and practicable for tho treat ment of tho apple scab fungus und the apple worm even when over five inches of ruin fell during June.

She certainly is not fat while giving milk, and to be a really good cow she should never bo long time enough between the times of milk giving to fatten. Kho will most likely have n large paunch, giving her a some what "pot-bellied" look after she has filled herself. Something cannot come from nothing, and wo never knew a cow giving largo messes of good milk which was not a ravenous feeder. Heuco her digestion must be good. She should have a broad chest, indicat ing largo lungs. There is no good digestion without good lung power. She should be "deep" from tho back down to the belly, but with a thin and rather flat neck. Tho skin of most good cows is of velvety texture, aud looks as if it Lad been groomed for severul generations, as in most breeds of the best cows it bus. The good cow is, indeed, less an accident than a product. With good material from which to breed, the good furmor can make sure of her nearly every heifer calf he gtts. Boston Cultivator.

Where the locality desirable for a lawn is naturally free from weeds the modern suggcbtion of mukiug it by planting patches of one particular kind, which will run together in a few mouths, is particularly desirable. Nothing can be more beautiful than a lawn wholly made up of one species. For Binull gardens, especially where the new plantation can be Lund-weeded during summer, it is tho best of all methods. No luwn made of grass seeds will Imj confined strictly to one kind, and on account of the different shades of green iu tho grass will ulwuyshavea more or less patchy opjieurance. Those who supply mixed luw n grass seeds usuully keep this in mind, and endeav or to get their kinds so generally alike in tint of green us to avoid this objec tion. One advantage of the mixed system is thut one can rarely tell by the description of u customer what partic ular kind of grass will thrive to best advantage. A mixture is, therefore, likely to best servo tho purpose, iu this, thut the one most suitable will eventually crowd out those not so well adapted to tho soil and cireumstunces. We huve seen a luwn muile of mixed grasses which had to be secured under the shade of largo trees, eveutuully be come wholly occupied by tho bheep feseue. In tho course of a few years every other kind was crowded out, und this particular species ulone occupied tho luud. Median's Monthly. (iliOWISQ SEEK POTATOES. Before planting the seed have the soil iu the best possible condition und liberally enriched with manure. Choose seed large or medium in size, smooth, and of best form.

When the plants are about four inches above ground, thin ont to one stalk in a hill. Continue tho cultivation twice each week, going both wayseach time, wntil the vines cover the ground. Cultivate shallow to avoid breaking the root. The best selection for seed will bo from those stalks that produce the largest amount in weight. Tho most prolific stalks are tho best to select from. A stalk that bears a large num ber of tnliers of good siio and form will make good seed. The improve ment of the potato crop in yield and quality lies in the line of improvement of seed. An observance of this prin ciple has produced wonderful results. Strict conformity to these principles for all farm crops will produce as won- rful changes. Improvement of seed must precede improvement of the general crop. American Agriculturist. PAB.lt AJTD OABDKIf NOTES. Let tho fowls out when the weather is mild. One-fourth Leghorn blood hastens maturity. Broilers early in spring sell nt very high prices. Grade vonr dressed poultry in pack ing for market. Tho Beder Wood is a strawberry worthy of trial. Skim milk thickened with bran is a goodfeed for poultry. In nearly all cases it will be best to deepen tho soil gradually. If the hay is tho least musty, always moisten it before feeding. The poor, unthrifty hog is often the prey of vermin or parasites. The more time required to fotten an animal the greater the cost. Overworked butter nearly always presents a greasy appearance. If farmers want to mnke buttermak ing profitable they must make a good article. Horses should not lie tied too long, as they are apt to roll and get cast iu the stall. Many modern growers nse commer cial fertilizers instead of manure for potatoes. Milk may be deficient in solids with out having water added to it by the milkman. A nervous, irritable, bad-tempered driver generally has nervous, vicious, runaway horses. Too long for tho cream to rise and too long without stirring will make white specks in the butter. With a thoroughly good cow one can always afford to give plenty of feed in exchange for plenty of butter. The most profitable cow is the best mother, and the mother function should be fostered as much as possible. While feed has much to do with the quality of the milk, the breed of the cow has much more to do with it. Now that work is on, be sure the collars fit perfectly before beginning work. It is often cosier to prevent than to cure gnlls. Farm horses should bo groomed at least twice a day in the working season, especially if they have been sweating or have been in the mud. A farmer who Las a quarter-section of land should sot five or ten acres of orchard trees. They will got Lim out of debt if be is in and Lelp him to keep out if he is not. An orchard can be successfully grown without interfering with the rest of the farm work, aud time thus spent will bring returns equal to any other pro duce. It has been proved. It is claimed by some horticulturists that winter pruning while the sap is down develops vigorous wood growth, and summer pruning checks this and encourages fruit production. A word of caution is due to those who embark in any new enterprise. There are many things to learn. Books have a value to the now beginner, but practice is necessary. No man should fail to learn the practical details by using his own hands. Are sheep subject to indigestion ? Of course they are, as much so as any other animal. Did you never smell a sheep's breath? Some of the healthy sheep s breat h is as sweet as an infant s ; but a diseased sheep's breath suggests indigestion and all the ills known to mortal flesh. Joseph Meohan gives a way to rid plum trees of the curculio: "As soon as flowering is over spread a Bheot un der your trees aud jar the trees, bring ing down the pest and the stung fruit, which burn. Do this daily until the fruit is one-fourth grown. If rightly followed it insures a crop." Arsenic Eaten. Styria and Curiuthia In there is much arsenic eating among the peas ants ; the women take to it to give themselves a good complexion and to make their hair fine and glossy.

Davis, M. D. nitATH is Tn err. Tho mimtior of deaths from tho use of stronit drluk has boon variously cstimatiM In the United Mates to be from fiO.OOO to 100.000 a year. Dr. Norman Korr, an eminent scientist of England, has for some fifteen years been pursulnir nn inquiry into the matter in connection with several medical exports, and, according to their deductions, the latest estimate of deaths of adults auuu ally caused by intemperance is: In Great Britain. lliO.000 1 in France. 142.000, and in the United States SO.000, or nearly half a million in an aggregate of 122.000.000 of people. If yellow fever and cholera, which carry off a few thousand each year, are so feared and shunned, what shall ! dono with the drink which slays its hall millions? A STATE S EXPiniUEST. South Carolina is to try an experiment In the Ktnte regulation of the liquor traffic. Under what is kuownas the Evans Dispensary Hill, which was passed by the Legislature at its recent sision, the Htnto is to control all sales of liquor. It is an adaptation of the Gothen burg system, which has Iteen in use iu Sweden and Korway for some yenrs. Under it li censes are granted to companies to sell splrit ous liquors under certain limitations. Tuesa companies are to receive six per cent, for capital invested, und to turn all profits In ex cess of this amount over to the State. Each company has a monopoly of Its business iu Its particular locality. Heer und wines are ex cepted from the provisions of the system ; but in South Carolina these are included, and hereafter there cuu be no leijnl saloons in the State except those controlled by the State authorities. The Legislature has appropria ted (50.000 as capital to start the busiuess, and Governor Tillman proiiosesto buy a stock of liquors with tills mouey and on the credit of the state, tnepurposo oi the law is to insure, we suppose, that good liquors shall be sold , that they shall tie sold only to persons entitled to receive them, anil that all the conditions of restrictions shall lie properly olieorvod. Whatever profit there may Is! in the sale will go to the State and not to individuals. The rea son that the liquor truffle has beeomeso irr"at a traffic is tievuuse there are large profits in It. If It should cease to be profitable, men now engaged in it would go into other lines of busiuess. They do not sell liquor because they want to detiauch thetr fellow-men, but because they waut to make mouey ; and as a general thing they are willing to do anything to increase their profits. They become hardened to evidences of suffering and deg radation and ruin, rognnling these as inci dental to the business. Their one purpose is to make mouey. If the possibility of profit were no longor before them they would cease to be liquor dealers. We shall wait with In terest to see how the South Carolina law operates. There seems to Ite no question of its constitutionality, as the lawyers who have been consulted by the liquor dealers advise them to run no risk, but to close their places of business promptly Tin the first of July, when the new law takes effect.

If drinking men could only see the effect that whisky has on the stomach, they would never driuk another drop. The Chief of Police of Baltimore says that he never found boys in the saloonsuntil lager beer was introduced and games prepared to entice them iu. In one of the grmt Paris hospitals, it was found that of eighty-three patients who suffered from epilepsy, sixty were children of druukeu parents. Men In foundries, who used to drink a groat deal of liquor and boor.now very gener ally drink oatmeal and water and tlud that they work much lietter. General Booth, of the Salvation Army says that nine-tenths of the evil that he has to fight against in the social department oi ins work is caused by drink. People make a grout mistake In using liquor in rase of sickness. The use of liquor iu sickness has been known to make men drunkards for the rest of their lives. Mildura. a town of New South Wales, was founded by the Chaffey brothers in 1H. By means of irrigation it has been transformed from a desert to a beautiful garilen. By the terms of the "Mildura Irrigation Act no liquor is allowed to tie sold In the settlement, aud iu consequence every one appears happy and prosjierous. If liquor could be kept from the Indians of the plains we should seldom hoar of any bloodshed betwoeu them and the whit us. The pity of it is that the men who sell the liquor seldom suffer fortheirmisdeeds, while the loss nearly always falls upon Innocent persons. A tew exceptionally severe sen tences dealt out to men convicted of selling liquor to ludians would do great good. Miss Frances E.

Such a w hip wotild have been A terror in tho hands of an Esquimaux if it hnd had a real handle J but of the forty feet thirty nine feet and a half were lash. Tho handle was a stout piece of whiti wood six inches long, to which tho lash of rawhide was fastened. Such whips aro Used by tho Kwptininnx Upon the teams of dogs which drag them over the snow. Tho contest this afternoon demonstra ted tho fact that it lunst be very un comfortable to bo an Esquimaux do within forty feet of the driver. It would le no troubln at all for tho Esquimaux to remove nn ear or a pound of flesh, full weight, from any dog in the team. The most expert whip among the Esquimaux was a little man, not much more than four feet high with slanting eyes, and a spiky, black beard, that niado him look very Japanese. A move ment of his wrist sent the forty feet of lash curving back in a straight line like a long snake. Another movement and it caino forward, noiselessly shooting through tho air just above the surface of tho ground until, with a loud report, the tip end of the lash struck the pre cise spot whero the coin lay buried, dug it from tho ground, and brought it spinning buck to the Esquimaux artist. Such precision and such force aro certainly unknown to any other whips in the world. Cowboys with their vaunted cracking of bull whips are small children com pared to these wonderful Esquimaux A man standing half way between tho contestants could certainly hnve boon hacked to death with the ends of their lashes, in a very few minutes. The force with which tho tip of tho lash struck the ground was so great that tho particles of dirt which flew about iu flicted painful wounds upon tho faces of tho spectators. Elevator Sickness. Elevator sickness is a sensation nnalngous to sea sickness. You know if you've crossed Lake Michigan in a northerly galo that you bear with for titude the motion of your end of tho boat when it's on tho rise, but listen for the angels' harps when it sinks. The elevator sickness is built on t ho snmo principle. It is more frequent in New York and Chicago than anywhere else in the world. Tho victims, mostly women, often suffer frightful qualms when tho car starts on its downward plunge. Some of the less impressiou ablo victims content themselves with tugging at the rope boy's hob-tailed coat and begging him to "go slow, please." Then with a muttered prayer or something the boy, who has heard that plea before, shakes out a reef or two more and makes tho trip in double quick, and tho victim shuts her eyes and shudders. Frequently she faints away completely. Experieuco does not seem to diminish the complaint. Pittsburg Dispatch. The Fading of Cut Itoses.
