' COPPERAS FOR ORAPWUntS.
Copperas has boon tried in France
on grapevines wbieh are sniflering
from an absence of the proper Rreen
eolor. The results aro reported to
have been moat antiafaetory. Early
spring is tho best time for the experi
ment. In mnking the application the
snrfaco soil above the roots should bo
removed to a depth of several inches
and the copperas water then poured
over the space ond the soil afterwards
restored. Now York World.
SOim MIMt FOR CALVES.
Sour milk is not fit food for a calf.
It may keep tho animal alive, bnt it
will not thrive or make a healthy
prowth. Tho sour milk will quickly
curdle in the stomach and cause indi
gestion. It is this way of feeding
a oalf that makes so many poor cows,
for an animal that has been stunted in
its early growth will never rocover tho
loss afterward. Skimmed milk, if
sweet, is good for any calf, bnt it
should bo warmed to eighty or ninety
degrees, as it is most digestible at
that temperature. Fat is not so much
required for a young calf. Muscular
growth is needed more than fat, anil
thus mnkes a better cow than if the
food made a fat animal. It is quite
safe to give a month-old oalf a light
ration of ground oats and com meal,
a few ounces at first, gradually increas
ing. Now York Times.
FATTENING BHF.BP.
When tho hog has stopped putting
on flesh or fat he must be disposed of,
no matter what the market, for after
that period all food given is practi
cally wanted. But the case is different
with sheep. After reaching their
raasinmm weight and condition as to
flesh that will eat but little, and this
is amply paid for in tho increase in
quantity and quality of wool. Be
sides prices of mutton sheep are al
ways better after tho weather begins
to get warm, tjs mutton is more of a
hot than cold weather food. Aain,
tho market will pay more for nicely
Bhorn and well handled wool than tho
butchers will ; and wool can be more
cheaply freighted when packod in
sacks than when on tbe sheep's back.
Another consideration is shorn sheep,
if well fattened, will sell for more than
nnshorn, for tho former can be seen
by the buyer at a glance, whilo the
latter must be carefully inspected, one
by one, and lastly, shorn sheep will
ship more comfortably and be in bet
ter condition when reaching market
than unshorn. These conditions make
all winter feeding most desirable.

The business .'of the horticulturist
and that of the apiculturist are each a
necessary adjunct of the other, says a
lady writer. The beekeeper may pay
a wonderful sum for the best bees in
the world, may have them in the best
of hives with movable frames, queen
excluding honey boards, etc., eto. ;
above the brood nest he may have the
whitest of section boxes, every one
containing a foundation starter ; in
fact, havj everything ready to catch
the surplus honey when the honey
flow shall come if the land be not full
of flowers on every hand there will
be no surplus for him. Professor
Wilson has made an elaborate calcula
tion, and concludes that it would re
quire 2,500,000 florets like those
of the white clover to yield one pound
of clover honey. This gives some
idea of the vast number of blossoms
necessary, as well as the amount of
labor represented in every honey
comb. The fruit grower may ransack
the earth, for new and improved
varieties; he may be ns skillful as
possible in planting; ho may graft
and propagat'3 and hybridize, and yet
if the winds are not favorable and the
bee does not visit the blossoms in
search of pollen or nectar the blossoms
will soon wither and fall and never
produce the fruit for which the blos
soms lived and grew, and for which
the horticulturist .had bestowed upon
tho tree or plant his labor, fore
thought and fostering care. Chicago
Times.
TUB SITDY OP AORICTLTTBR.
Agriculture is the basis of our
national progress and prosperity.
While this fact is widely recognized,
yet the study of this most important
of ell callings is not pluced iu the
curriculum of the publio schools of
the country. Generations of chil
dren pass through life without ability
to distinguish between wheat and
barley when they see it growing. It
seems necessary to be born on a farm
to be acquainted with even the rudi
ments of agriculture. This is all
wrong. The studies of the school
room should be arranged to meet this
oversight. True, men have become
famous in many ways, whose sole
equipment was furnished in the com
mon schools of the country, but these
have yet to gradunte a scholar who
was ever aided iu his life work as a
farmer by the knowledge acquired in
thein. The introduction of sound
text books on agriculture in rural pub
lio schools would lemedy this defect
of the system under which they are
operated. The children of farmers
have as perfect a right to the technical
knowledge of their prospective cull
ing, as that such knowledgo of things
that at best uro but mere accomplish
ments shall be taught. The tendency
coward the latter is very manifest iu
many directions iu the studies of the
public schools. It is always better to
teach a tew thiugs thut the student
may be fully acquainted with them
lather thau to overwhelm him with a
lot tif ns'lcbs trii-h thut rut:ul liiin iu
his liie work. For that reuson ngri
culture should form a prouuuint
future in tho studies ot rural public
echools, becuuso of itn future useful
ness to the average atieuduut at them

S'jM'IrU: r'OUAUE CBOP.X
W'hfcu extra feed ia nuedod as eu;ly
as June thero is nothing better than
clover. Tho best time for sowing clover
is in July or the early part of August.
It may readily follow some forage crop
fed off in midsummer. When grown
for forage the clover should be Beeded
at the rate of twenty pounds to tho
acre, and will produce ten to twelve
tons of green for age, worth at least a
fourth more than timothy for feeding
purposes.
Oats and peas, sown at the rato of
one and one half bushels of oats and
two of peas per acre, will afford excel
lent forage for midsummer. Tho pens
should either bo plowed into the
length of four or five inches or else
the seod bo well covered by nse of a
wheelbarrow. The oats should be
sown several days after tho poas and
lightly harrowed in. Uy sowing three
or four small areas one week apart,
starting as enrly in the spring as pos
sible, this crop will supply fresh,
nutritious forage for about a month,
beginning with the last week in June ;
while if the wholo is sown at ono time
part of the fodder becomes dry and
woody before it can be ntilizod.
On fertile sods a second crop of
clover should be available by the first
of August and will afford the best of
feed for ten davs or two weeks at this
period of the summer.
With most farmers corn is tho great
forage crop for late summer, and early
rail feeding. Yhiloitis doubtful if
there is any crop that will produce a
larger amount of food material per
acre, there are a number of legumin
ous crops that can bo grown with less
drain upon the soil and will afford
forago of much higher nutritive value
pouud for pound. In Southern New
England and as far north as Central
New York, tho cow pea can be easily
grown on warm, light soils, while the
soja bean affords a large amount of
excellent forage and can be grown in
nearly all parts of New England. These
crops will afford forago from about the
middlo of August till the killing frosts
come.
Lata in September it is sometimes
found necessary to use rowen from the
mowing field and in this case the more
clover thero is in it the bettor. Grasses
when young and tonder are more nitro
genous than in the larger stages of
growth, and hence rowen affords a
much better food than tho full grown
grasses.
lor a late full feed there is no crop
yet in nse equal to barley and peas.
This crop cau be sown the first part of
August on the clover ground, or it
may follow the oats and peas. Two
bushels of peas and one of barley make
a good mixture. Both of these plants
withstand frosts well and make excel-'
lent growth in cool weather. New
England Farmer.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Gi-o the peas a light, rich soil.
Red raspberries should not be given
Jeep cultivation.
Do not forget parsley seed. A small
package will yield enough to nse all
the year.
Many are discarding the pole lima,
and taking up the bush lima bean as
a specialty.
Young bees are valuable in the
spring, and none should be allowed to
die from carelessness.
Sow celery seod early. It is esti
mated that one ounce of seed will pro
duce about 2500 plants.
Beeswax will be darkened if molted
in an iron vessel. It is better to use
brass or copper vessels.
The best shipping crates for honey
are of a single tier, and hold from
twelve to twenty-four pounds.
Basswood is light, white, and free
from gummiuess. Nothing bo far has
been found to equal it for making
pound sections.
The butter dryer is the self-describ
ing name of a newly invented machine
that seems to be giving great satisfac
tion in England.
Never set plants of a poor quality.
Poor seed will muke a failure, but only
for a single year, while poor plants
last over many seasons.
All fruit plants, including trees.
should have a generous supply of fine,
light-colored, fibrous roots, in order
to be of a vigorous and healthy
growth.
For the potato crop sulphate ii
thought to be muuh better than muri
ate of potash, for it gives a greatei
yield and improves the quality in a
higher degree.
The cucumber should not be set in
open grouud until about the middle
of May or nntil the weather settles, as
it is a very tender auuual. Plant in
June or July if you waut them for
pienles.
Do not plant potatoes on hard,
poorly plowed soil, for the crop will
be poor, no matter how thorough the
cultivation or how favorable other con
ditions if the soil is not mellowed
deep enough.
Open the hives only when it is warm
enough for the bees to fly, and then da
uot leave open any longer than neces
sary. The brood may be chilled, and
us there is no honey to be gathered,
the bees may take to robbing.
Apiarists cannot be too particulai
about packing. It is stated that dis
honesty hero is a common as among
horticulturists, and that fine white
combs, are frequently found noxt to
the glass, aud the durk iu the centre
of the cruto.
If about to go into small fruit rais
ing conduct it in a clean aud aourute
manner, with good land, and success
is sure. Raspberry audcurrant bushes
should be plauted five feet apart each
way to allow room for a horse and
cultivator.
A liberal application of salt to your
asparagus bed this spring will aid in
keeping the soil moist next summer,
as well as killing out tho weeds, but it
will not take the place of manure or
iither kinds of fertilizers. Top dress
the buil with manure, thou add tho
salt to kiil out the wtods.

A Sect ot t asters.
The Jains of India are the champion
fnsters or long-distance, do-without-food
sect of tho world. Fasts of from
thirty to forty days are very common
among this curious sect, and once
each year a "radarai" conies forward
and undertakes the "grand fast" a
period of Bovonty-flve days, during
which time ho allows nothing but
warm water to pass his lips. When
the fast is onco begnn, tho faster will
carry it to tho prescribed limit or dio
in the attempt. In curious contrast
to this startling feat is tho religions
eating contests ot the South Sea Isl
anders, where the competitors actual
ly hoop themselves like barrels with
ropes made of grass and bark to keep
from bursting through overfoeding. -St.

The subject of the above portrait is
prominent and much respected citiien, Mr.
Robert Mormon, of Wast Kye, N. H. Where
Mr. Manaon is known "bis word is as rood
as bis bond." In a recent lettw to Dr. R. V.
Pierce, Chief Consulting Physician to the
invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buf
falo, N. Y., Mr. Manson says :
"Dr. Pierces Pleasant Pellet are the
best pills I ever took for the liver. All my
friends say tbey do them tbe most good."
This opinion is shared by every one who
once tries these tiny, little, sugar-coated pills,
which are to be found in all medicine stores.
Tbe LT. 8. Inspector of Immigration at Buf
falo, N. Y., writes of them as follows:
"From early childhood I have suffered
from a sluggish liver, with all the disorders
accompanying such a condition. Doctors'
prescriptions and patent medicines I bave
used in abundance ; they only afforded tem
porary relief. I was recommended to try
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. I did so, tak
ing two at night and one after dinner every
day for two weeks. I have reduoed the dose
to on ' Pellet every day for two months.
I have in six months increased in solid flesh
tuenf v-two pounds. I am in better health
than I bav been since childhood. Drowsi
ness and unpleasant feelings after meals have
completely disappeared."
Assist nature a little now and then with a
gentle laxative, or, if need be, with a more
searching and cleansing cathartic, thereby
removing offending matter from the stom
ach and bowels, and toning up and invigo
rating tbe liver and quickening its tardy
action, and you thereby remove the cause
of a multitude of distressing diseases, such
as headaches, indigestion, biliousness, skin
diseases, boils, carbuncles, piles, fevers and
maladies too numerous to mention.
If people would pay more attention to
properly regulating the action of their bow
els, they would have less frequent occasion
to call for their doctors1 services to subdue
attacks of dangerous diseases.

Porcelain Teeth,
Artificial teeth nro made of porce
lain. Porcelain is, as everyone knows,
of many degrees of hardness, and tho
greater or less hardncas of a particular
kiud of porcelain depends mainly
upon tho degree of heat required to
ftiso rro ingredients of which it is
composed. The porcolain used for
artificial teeth consists chiefly of a
very fine kaolin, such as that used by
the Chineso cerumio artists, with fel
spar for the enamel. The teeth,
with platinum pins inserted in them,
are exposed to a degree of heat so
high as to melt any metal less fusible
than platinum, and this baking brings
them to a state of hardness Biiflloient
to resist the wear and tear incident to
tho work they havo to perform.

That, of all known sgente to aocomptlaa
this purjwse, Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellet are
unequaled, is proven by tho fact that one
used, lhyar alwayt tit favor. Their sec
ondary effect is to keep the bowels open and
rrgufur, not to further constipate, as Is the
case with other pills. Hence, their great
IKipularity with suiferers from habitual cou
stipalion, piles, and indigestion. ,
Tbe " Pleasant Pellets " are far more effec
tive In arousing the liver to action than "blus
pills," calomel, or other mercurial prepara
tions, and have the further merit of being
purely vegetable and perfectly harmless In
any condition nf tbe system ; no particular
oare is required while usmg them.
Composed of tho choicest, concentrated
vegetable extracts, their cost is much mors
than ia that of other pills found in the mar
ket, yot from forty to forty-four "Pellet'
are put up in each sealed glass vial, as sold
through druggists, and can be had at the price
of the more ordinary and cheaper made pills.
Dr. Pierce pride himself on having been
first to introduce a Little Liver Pill to the
American people. . Many have imitated them,
but none have approached bis " Pleasant Pal
let " in excellence.
For all laxative and cathartic purposes
the " Pleasant Pellets " are infinitely sup,
rior to ail " mineral waters," sedlits pow
ders, " salt," castor oil, fruit syrups (so
called), laxative " toes," and the many other
purgative compounds sold in various" forms.
Put up iu glass vials, sealed, therefore
always fresh aud reliable. One little " Pel
lot " is laxative, two gently cathartic.
As a " dinner pill," to promote digestion,'
take one each day after dinner. To relieve
distress from over eating, nothing equals
them. They are tiny, bugar-coeted, antt
bilious rranulu, scarcely larger than mus
tard seeds. Every child want thein.
Then, after they are token, instead of dis
turbing aud shocking the system, they act in
a mild, and natural way. There is no re
action afterward. Their help leuta.
Accept no substitute recommonilod to be
" just as good." They may bo letlrr for tha
dealer, because of paying him a better profit,
but he is not the one who needs holp.
