A Watch With a HMirr.
The watch of'Lord Loat, the Inst
victim of tbe executioner' me in Eng
land, which ha. been discovered in the
ruins of an old boose in Newton street,
lTolborn, notorious at ono time n the
abnrie of criminals of the worst t.vpe,
Las bad an event ful history ; but the
prevailing opinion that it has been
lost since the lifclime of its original
owner seems far from correct. Ac
cording to a correspondent, who writes
to it on this snbject.it has teen in
the possesion of private individuals
tmtil a comparatively recent period,
nnd he gives the following interesting
facts conceming its history: Some
thirty-five rears ago the watch was in
the possession of a distant relative of
Lord Lovat, it having been handed
down from generation to generation
for over 100 years. At that time, how
ever, the then owner of the watch was
in temporary pecuniary embarrass
ment, and gave the valued relic, one
of a number he possessed at the time,
ns security for a small loan ; but when
shortly afterward, on getting uneasy
at the watch Kitting out of hi? hands,
he managed to obtain the money to
redeem it, he was informed by the
gentleman in whose hands the watch
had been placed that it had been stolen
from him, mid that he had been en
tirely unsuccessful in his endeavors to
discover its whereabouts. The son of
the before mentioned gentleman, who
has in his possession at the present
time the cop in which Lord Lovat was
execnted, as well as some seals and
other interesting relics of the famous
Jacobite, has recognized the watch as
the one at one time belonging to his
father, and is now in communication
with the manager of the FTolborn Bes
tanrant, in the hope that he may re-cover-the
relic, which is of such family
interest. Other claims have been
made besides the above, but on en
tirely different grounds principally by
claimants of Lord Lovat's estate-

Cheese Making in Swltwrlnnd.
In Switzerland the making of cheese
is not left to hazard and to the whim
or ignorance of the peasant. Not only
is its consumption very large, but the
exportation of cheese from the little

the industry and to this end has es

TLEA FOR nOr.SB n.AT3.
A pretty idea in decorating one's
room for an entertainment is to place
pots of palms, growing ferns or flowers
on the shelves above the doors usually
devoted to pottery. Placed at this
elevation they are most effective and
are, besides, out of the way ae. regards
wall and floor space, which is often a
consideration.
For plants that do not require sun
light the idea might be carried furth
er, and certain kindi might always be
left on such a shelf. Flowers give au
air to a room that nothing else can im
part a touch of nature, a cosy, home
like air but iu our rage for the
aesthetic they have in a measure been
banished, since bcth tbe pots and the
shelves or stands for holding tbe in are
considered unsightly. But the dull
red of the common flower pot has a
beauty of its own, and there is no r ia
son why a Bunny window should not
be fitted with a strong shelf, upheld
by ornamental brackets and surround
ed with fretwork or with a homemade
arrangoment of spindles and balls,
that would be graceful and pretty.
Half a dozeu well cared for plants
on this shelf will do more toward
making your room beautiful than ten
times their cost expended in china or
furniture or wall paper, lour friends
will look at your blooming hyacinths
and your sturdy geraniums aud forget
to notice how faded is the carpet aud
how worn the covering of the furni

The' wisdom of the ancients in some
respects surpassed that of the mod
erns. We read of the good effects of
digging abont late-bearing fruit trees
and feeding them with manure. Now
Mr. Meehan, one of the wisest and
most experienced of fruit growers, ex
horts those who havo tnrdily bearing
trees and who has not? to do thete
very things now. llo alviscs root
priming of snch laggard trees. It is
first the nature of a tree to make wood,
and to this end it must have abumlaut
foliage to gather from tbe atmosphere
the carbon needed to make the wood.
It bears fruit in its old age to repro
duce its kind, that is all. And just as
we have trained our cows to make
milk for our use far in excess of tho
natural desire of the animal, so we
must train our trees to bear fruit in
the same niauner. 80 we go baok to
the ancient device to dig about the
trees, cutting off tho extended roots
and confining them to closer quarters,
thus preventing tho exceesive growth
of wpod. This tends to fruit bearing,
and it is effective. The preseut is a
good time to do this work, for tho
buds for the coming year's growth are
maturing, and we may say whether
they shall be mere useless loaf buds or
proiitable fruit bil ls. Of course, with
this pruning we add moderate fertil
izing, for the reproductive process in
a plant, as it is in an animal, is ex
haustive, and nee Is stimulating by
abundant and good food. New York
Times.
BONEMEAL OF DIFFERENT KINDS.
Bonemeul goes under various names,
such as ground bone, bone llour.bone
dust, etc. We find in the market raw
bonemeal aud steamed boncmeal.
Buw bonemeal coutaius the fat natur
ally present in bones. The presence
of tbe fat is objectionable, because it
makes the grinding more difficult and
retards tbe decomposition of the bone
in the coil, while fat itself has no
value as plant food. When bones are
steamed, the fat is removed and the
bone is more easily ground. More
over, the chemical nature of the nitro
gen compounds sppears to be changed
in such a manner that tbe meal under
goes decomposition in the soil more
rapidly than in case of raw bone. The
presence of easily decaying nitrogen
compounds in bone hastens, in the
process of decomposition, to dissolve
more or less of the insoluble phos
phate. Bonemeal thonld contain from
three to five per cent, of nitrogen and
from twenty to twonty-tive per cent,
of phosphoric scid. About one-third
to one-fouith of the latter appears to
be in readily available condition.
Haw bonemeal generally contains
somewhat more nitrogen (one or two
percent.) nnd rather less phosphorie
acid than steamed bonemeal.
The fineness of the meal affects its
value; the finer the meal tbe more
readily available is it as plant food.
On account of tbe increased demand
for bones for various purposes, and
on account of their increasing value,
thete is considerable tendency to
adulterate bonemeal with such sub
stances as lime, gypsum, coal ashes,
ground oyster shells, ground rock
phosphate, etc. Bulletin No. 9f,

WHAT THE 8OII1 KEr.DT.
"Exhaustive soils," so-called, may
contain as much plant food as others
that are considered fertile.
The physical effect of fertilizers in
changing the relation of the soil to
heat and moisture is of more lm
portance than the amount of plant
food thev furnish.
The effect of fertilizers depends
largely npon the season. Changing
seasons have more effect upon plant
growth than does the plant food in
tbe soil.
Ptvsical conditions of beat and
moisture largely determine the de
velopment and yield of crops.
Deterioration of lands is due not so
much to loss of plant food as to
changes in the texture of the coil in
relation to heat and moisture.
Making use of tho rainfall is tho
most important consideration of mod
ern agriculture.
Crop production is not directly lim
ited by the amouDt of rainfall, but by
the amount 01 moisture in tbe soil.
1'rouuction or crops depends upen
tbe control of moisture and heat in the
toil.
As heat cannot be controlled, the
whole art of cultivation should be li
I reoted toward the control of moisture.
Present methods of cultivation are
dctrimeutal to soil and do not accoin-
plibh desired results.
ine continued .plowing at a cer
tain depth causes a hard packing of
the tub surlace, which forms a water
shed, causing turface drainage and
erosion of the soil by which thousands
of acres of fertile lands are rendered
barren every vear.
Sub-soiling (loosening of the nuder
toil tc a depthof one and a half totwo
feet) admits the water to the sub-soil,
prevents surface drainage and a sub
beqneut erosion of the soil, takes away
surplus water without washing the sur
face anil retains the moisture for fu
ture use of crops.
Hub-soiling affords the only moans
for controlling moisture in the soil
and is a key to succecslulcrop-raisincr.
The modern plow is but au im
proved type of the primitive forked
htick, aud does not accomplish satis
fuctory results, but, on tho contrary,
is au enemy to fertility, and tbe com
mon sub-soil plow is uu-:itibfuctory
in many ways.

In tho feeding of fowls wo should
consider tho object to be obtained ;
whether it be for marked, for eggs, or
for show. If a fowl is rating too much
fattening food, she will not lay well.
Tho beBt time to feed soft food is in
the morning, nud it should be hot and
stimulating. Do not feed them on the
ground, nud do not allow tho pans
from which they feed to become
soured and filthy. Oive them suffi

have them mope around ard beoome

come too fat, being active and vigor
ous, but tho largo breeds, being more
indolent, keep thomselves rather quiet
and soon becomo too fat. It is easy
to keep them within bounds by judi
cious feeding.
Grain in excess should not be given,
while bulk may be allowed in the
shape of vegetables nnd green food.

A piece of liver or meat scraps is

oats or corn meal. Add tho meal, etc,
until the mess has thickened to a stiff
dough. If milk be convenient it may
be scalded, either curds, buttormiik
or sweet skimmilk, and the bran, etc.,

turnips, carrots and potatoes also.
hen green stuff is not procurable, a
few onions or cabbages, choppod, may
be added ; also whatever scraps come
from the kitchenbits of fish, potato
parings, scraps of fat, etc. When no
green food is convenient, good olover
hay is chopped fine and steeped in
water over night. Next morning heat
the water and add anv of the above.
We buy scraps of meat and run it
through tho sausage machine with
young rye, grass or clover. This gives
excellent results.
All soft food should be salt, but con
diments, suoli as red pepper, ginger,
etc., should be fed sparingly. Once
or twice a week is often enough. The
best tonio is a constant change of diet.
which promotes a regularity in the
system, always provided the food is
sound and wholesome. At night grain
must be fed.
There are many complaints that
fowls do not lay, even when well fed
and comfortably housod, but this is
due to not allowing them the proper
kind, or from feeding too much. It
is necessary to study the habits of each
breed, in order to know just what to
do; the knowledge that is gained by
close study and practical experience
is valuable to the poulterer. Charooal
should be fed to fowls occasionally,
or broken up and placed where the
fowls can get at it, as no one thing is
more conducive to health ; also broken
oyster or clam shells, lime or old plas
tering, fhould bo supplied in abun
dance for material for egg shells.
Of course fresh, pure water is an
other essential to success in producing
egg?. Another essential is lime, in
the shape of whitewash, and those who
use it liberally are the ones who keep
their flock healthy and cleanly. To
render whitewash more effeotlve in
dislodging or destroying lioe and oth
er parasite nuisances, the addition of
a little carbolio acid is invaluable, for
scarcely anything elso seems so di-s
tastelul to the vermin. Air-slaked
lime should be occasionally scattered
over the floor of the chicken house to
remove all unpleasant and unhealthful
odors. The care bestowed on panltry
is not lost, as fowls appreciate kind
ness ; the better the oare and the more
varied the food, the better tho results
and the more protitable they will be
for the owner. American Agricultur

LIVER KNLinGKO ST ALCOHOL.
Tatrlck Carney, a flfteen-year-ol 1 boy,
who lives at b'i'i First aveuuo, was brought
to Lellnvuu Hospital last evening to be
treated for an enlargement of tne liver caused
by the action of alcohol. This case is a re
markable one becatisa of the youth of tbe
patient. The disease is not uncommon
among middle-aged men who are hard
drinkers.
Young Carney has been in tbe habit ot
drinking beer or whisky at bis meals ever
since he can rmiemt)r. It was also bit
habit to join in drinking tho Leer which his
father brought uu iu t lie evening lua can for
suppur. lio drauk beer or liijuor ut any
time, in fact, as a matter of course.
Tbe boy Is no turgor than a child of seven
or eight years old. Ho was carried iu tho
phyHicun'snrms to and from the examination
room. New York Bun.

"To me," i.aid Kov. J. M. Cleary on a re
cent oeea-ioD. "there is no sadder sight lliuu
to seethe bard working man, employed from
Monday's dawn uutil Maturduy's twilight,
draw his week's wages uud baud over u large
poriion ot his luouey to tho saioon koopei
aud bis family iu laziness, wbilu bis own
family live ou tha boriier aud of beggary all
their lives." .
The muu who goes to a lunch counter and
consumes too much bread und butter uud
beef muy do himself a more aerloua Injury,
possi'ily, thau if be drunk too much wuisky
at tt bar, but gluttony, unliko drunkeuueu,
is uot a menace to tlio peace of Bociety.

The feet are much more lent'er than the

Men are often lame nil summer from the
