Why :s it that the colors of a soap t'ubblo change ns the film gradually alters in thiokneM? Another cause of color is here involved that of in terference. If a stone be thrown into a Muooth pond a circular wave is pro-, duced, gradually widening toward the edgeoftho pond ; if a second stone nc inrown into too pona a second . i .... . i wave will be produced, which will in fluence the erst. If the stone are dropped iu simul taneously at tho sfuuo spot the waves will just be doubled in bight; and if the second stone be throwu in exactly ft wave length behind the firtt the same effect will bo observed. If, howeer, the second stone be thrown into the water exactly half a wave length be hind the first tho motion of the wave will be destroyed. Similarly with light ; when" light im pigne on the soap bubble part of it ih reflected from the exterior surface, and part enters the film and is reflect ed from the interior surface. This latter portion traverses tlio water uediura between the two sur faces twice, and is therefore kept be hind the Crst reflected ray. The two set of waves interfere with each oth er, and produce a eolorod light instead of a white light. Other waves, ago iu, may destroy each other and extin guish the light. Some of tho constituent culors of the impigning white light formed by their passnpo through tho film inter fere so ns to destroy each other, whilo others remain unattested.. As the film diminishes in thielmosjs tho colors must necessarily vary. In this way ia accounted for the marvelous variety of beauty and col or in the soap bubble, iridescence of oil upon water, tempered with tho gHiidiuess of some insect's wings. Longman's Magazine. Pr.

SALT FOB ANtMAI Salt is necessary for all vegeteriau animals, and aids in tho digestion of the food. Tho belief that it is a pre ventive of intestinal worm is well founded, for these parasites aro found mostly in ftuinials of imperfect diges tion. The undigested food encourage tkese peste, as they feed upon it, or upon tho copious mucus secreted iu the bowels of animals suffering from indigestion. Salt should bo given regularly with every feed, if cut food is used, otherwise in the form of a lump of rock salt kept iu the manger, wkere it may always be reached. New York World. P1SF.ASK IN FOWLS. Overcrowding of fowls is sure to cause disease. The most frequent troubles thus produced are the two most fatal disorders of poultry, roup and cholera. These are both encour aged by bad air, dampness and filth. Cholera is a disorder of the liver by which the gall is secreted too copiously and overflow into the intestines, giv ing the yellow and green color to the excrement. Tho comb and wattles and cheek lopes are also yellow, and ft pro fuse diarrhea soon kills the bird. This is due to overfeeding, although it is a contagious disease, and it is much encouraged by excess of food, especially of corn. There is no effec tive remedy. Sometimes tho fowls will recover if kept from food and given only water in which some hypo sulphite of soda has been dissolved. Cut they mostly die in a few days after the first attack. The roup con sists of inflammation of the head and throat, the eyes discharge a thick, sticky matter, and if neglected are soon destroyed. The treatment for this disease is to bathe the head in warm vinegar and give tho bird a pinch of powdered chlorate of potash dropped in the throat twice a day. Some warm soft food may be given as soon as the bird will ent. This disease also is con tagious. lew York Times, HARDY SOSES. Geo. S. Conover, of Geneva, N. Y., gives in Gardening his experience in growing hardy rosea for fifteen years past. His lict now composes twenty one varieties, beginning with such good old sorts as Hermosa, Sou v. Mal maison, General Jacqueminot, Co quette des Alps and Pierre Notting, and ending with Vick'a Caprice, Mrs. John Laing and Lady Helen Stewart All have proved hardy without pro tection. His soil is a stiff day loam, constantly enriched with stable ma nure, which is put on spring and fall, the coarse litter being left on during the summer as mulch, to secure mois ture and even temperature at the roots. Mr. Conover finds that he can not make his rose beds too rich. Commercial fertilizers have been tried with indifferent success. Ho prunes lightly in early spring; severely just as the buds start Early pruning, followed by frost, is very injurious. For insects he uses a whale-oil soap solution, two pounds dissolved in fif teen gallons of water, put on with a yringe at night, and in the morning followed by a syringing with clear water. This is the original formula for which the Massachusetts Horticul tural Society awarded a premium of $100 in 1841. A neighbor showers his rose beds daily with the hose, and keep all insects in subjection. To bacco dust and stems and good Per sian insect powder havo been found of great value. WASTE IS FARM UTENSILS. It is painful to ride through the country aud note the waste that is go ing on in farm tools, writes E. L. Vin cent. Valuable mowen, binders aud reapers stand iu the field all the year round. Plows are left iu tho furrow the whole winter long. Wagons are housed under the eaves of tho burn or out in more open places. Cultivat ors, drills, rakes, all kinds of utensils are exposed to tho weather summer and winter. Every muu knows that a piece of wood left out of doors for auy length of time will decay. He knows also full well that iron will rust. Paint is short lived. Unless renewed it soon washes on and leaves the bare metal exposed. Frost aud heat, dew and sunshine, rain and wind, are most powerful agents in the destruction of farm im plements. One of these tools if well made originally and cared for proper ly Bhould last a lifetime. The careful farmer never leaves bis Titensibt thus exposed ; when he is done with his plow he wipes the dirt all off and puts it under cover, tho name way with the drill, the harrow, the cultivator and even the hoe. I know a man who, if he happens to forget and leaves his wheelbarrow out will get up in the middle of tho night, if he remembers his neglect, uud put it under cover. He cannot sleep if ho knows that tho ladder or tho ax has been left out. Were every man as careful as this man, the output of the manufactories would be materially lessened aud tho pocketbook of our farmers would bo thicker than it now iH. Why not try it? New England Farmer. A NEWLV DISCOVERED INSECTICIDE. A new aud important discovery in the domain of pomology hua been made, by F. C. Moulton, of the Gypsy Moth CuiiiiiiihMou, Mul. It'll, 1iish. Ar senate of lead whn the Mihutaiice used, which Mas l,l ri. nit. 1 bv dihaolvinir eleven ounces of ucelato of h a 1 ami ! four ounces of urseiiute of h...lu in 150 gallons of water. Thcuo snbstuuecs quickly dissolve ami form ui seuate of lead, a fine white powder which iu lighter thuu Paris green, aud while be ing fully as effective in its operation in destroying insect life is fur prefera ble for several reasons. If by any ineuus the luiUiiie happens to be used stronger thau necessary to destroy m eet life, even three or four times the libceaeaiy strength, it iu nowue iu jure the foliage of tho plants upon which it is sprayed. This is a great thing in its favor, for frequently in using Paris green for potato beetle lar rm and for the codlin worms, as muck injury result from the poison burning the foliage as would result from the in sect if let alone. This is a better insecticide than Paris greeu under all circumstances ftnd for all insects, say Professor Fernald. It has tho advantage of being readily seen on the leaves, so that one can toll at a glance which hs' e and have not been sprayed, which is often of great convenience. Being lighter thau Paris green, it does not settle so quickly, aud as a result can bodistribnted more evenly over the foliage. A groat ob jection to tbo use of Paris green is the liability of UBing n overdose, and thereby injuring tho foliage of the plants sprayed. With the arsenate of lead it can be used if necessary in the proportion of twenty-five pounds to 150 gallons of water without injury to the foliage. Professor Fernald advises the addition of two quarts of glucose, or if thatcan not be obtained two quarts of molasses to each 150 gallons of water, used for the purpose of caus ing the insecticide to adhero to the leaves. He says the experiments Inst season show that the . insecticide will remain on the trees for a long time, even after quite heavy Tains, and we infer, prove effective. The cost ol these chemicals is given as eight cents per pound for arsenate of soda and fourteen cents for acetate of lead, at wholesale. It should be borne in mind that these substances are all poisonous, and should be used with as great care as Paris green. Orange JuddFarmer. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Pigs and dairying naturally go to gether. The United States produce annually forty-six million tons of hay. A practical beekeeper does not ex pect any great results from flower fields three miles away. The more docile the calf the better milker ia the cow or the better feeder is the steer. There is little danger of handling the calf too early or too much. In Australia the tree aphis is con trolled bv a tea made from tomato leaves. The tea is sprayed in tho usual way aud a week later an aphis cannot be fonnd. The best test of the health of the cow is the condition of her milk. Whenever this shows au nnusnal amount of fat tho temperature of the cow should be at once taken. The hog business can be made to py if carried on properly. Like all other animals the hog requires change of feed and in summer plenty of room, grass and other succulent foods. A well-bred animal of any sort is a machine for utilizing raw products to the best possible advantage. It does this with less waste, and consequently more profit than a scrub can. It is like using good machinery instead of poor to harvest your crops. Those that havo bred to the best sires have no trouble to sell their horses at a fair price, while the small horses do not bring enough to pay for their feed. Tho scrub and grade stallions must go ; it. is only tho best kind of stock that pays now. Whether fattening an animal for market or feediug a horse tor work regularity is a prime factor in success. A good young steer's meat can be very rapidly tongucued by neglecting to feed him at the right hour a few times or letting hiui go without water. The farm that does not support a flock of poultry is not inauaged to the best purpose. On the contrary, the farm ou which too much poultry is kept will be the Inter to the extent that it is overburdened, for where poultry is crowded into a house it ceases to be profitable. Dons not freezing butter damage it, aud if so why is freezing advocated? asks a Mississippi subscriber of the Farmers' Voice, and the Voioe answer as follows : Yes, it hurts it some, but it can bo kept for months without do- iug it any more harm than would re sult from freezing it a week. The more you can induce the lambs to eat the faster thev will grow aud the sooner they will reach the market Ground oats make the best grain food. Place it where they can eat all they desire. Feed the ewes liberally also in order to provide the very young lambs with plenty of milk There are many things that should be carefully observed in the education of horses that are now entirely omitted. Too much dependence is placed in the bits, the lines, the strength of the harness, the use of the whip, and the ability of tho driver to control the horse by sheer brute force. Hence there Are so many fatal accidents. A correspondent of the Field and Farm says that when a team is (lis posed to pull unevenly the trouble may be remedied uy uuuitcning tne inside traces and crossing thorn, so as to have the same horse attached to the same end of each singletree. He says he has pulled many a heavy load out ot a bad place by adopting this expodi ent.

Potatoes may be soaked in cold water for twolvo or more hours before being cooked, aud will be improved rather than injured, but if they stand in a littlo moisture even for ten mimics after they aro cooked, they ure spoiled. The potato is composed largely of starch. Tho uncooked starch does not unite with moisture like a sponge. A good potato will bo light and mealy as aoou as it is baked or boiled, but if the cooking is con tinued it will become dark, heavy and strong flavored. St Louis Star-Sayings. FOR rR'KLlNO DAT. In petting vinegar for pickles, al ways try to get apple vinegar, as the other kinds frequently eat up the pickles entirely or cause them to turn oft. Too strong vinegar should be partly diluted with water. AU pickles should be tightly sealed, to prevent air reaching the vinegar, as this kills it It should always be poured on hot, as it oomes to the first scald never allow it to boil.. Never put up pickles in anything that has held any kind of grease, and never let them freeze. If pickles are put into brine, it should always bo strong enough to bear an egg. Use coarse salt, in pro portion' of a heaping pint of salt to a gallon of water. The nicest way to pnt up pickles is to put them in bottles nnd seal whilo hot, New York Journal. BELICIOVS 8ANDWICHRS. The bread for sandwiches should al ways be one day old at least, and must be sliced very thin. The butter should be soft enough to spread with out crumbling the loaf, ftnd the slice should be spread before it is cut from the loaf. Slices of rye bread buttered, spread thinly with mustard and then with cottage cheese aro very palata ble. For egg sandwiches beat your eggs to a paste after they have been hard-boiled. There should be a little cream added to them to make the mixture smooth, and it must be sea soned to taste. Fish sandwiches may be made from any kind of nsii. V natever it is after removing bones and skin pound it to a smooth paste, mix with it a very little chopped pickle and season. If it be a dry fish, mix with it also a little melted butter or salad dressing. The thinly-sliced bread spread with salad dressing, on wnich are laid water-cresses or a crisp leaf of lettuce, is a most welcome addition to a sum mer lunch. Then lor sweets tnere are sandwichos made with jellies and jams. l nese may be spread on slices of cake, wheat, graham or even brown bread. Detroit Free Press. ItECIFES.

Probably tho most cunning ot all animals is tho mink. Two gentlemen were Ashing on one of tho rivers of Maine. The fish were quite plenty anil as soon as one was caught it was thrown behind ou the grass. After some time one of the gentlemen thought he would take a rest and at the same time examine his capture. But he could not find single fish. He charged hi friend with having played him a trick, but the friend was as sur prised as ho. They now detormiueil to wtch their next fish, aud their astonishment was unbounded wheu they saw a mink rtiu from a hole near by, snatch up a fish nnd carry it oft" to the hole, whore they afterward found their entire cap ture ennuingly hid under sonio dead leave. Iu the samo manuer the miuk steals gauifl which the sportsmen shoot. On one occasion a gontluniau shot ft wild duck but before the dogs could get to it a mink had stolen it, carried it off to a hole in the frozen snow, which one mink had prepared while the other was watching for the opportunity to steal the sportsman s game. Notwith standing this particular characteristic the mink is a brave as well as a fero cious little fellow, and he is exoelled in these qualities ouly by the ermine. Lewiston (Me.) Journal.
