The washing jiroccsa is performed by plain stilt end water. From a pint to two qunrts of water aro injected into tho system by menus of nn ordinary hypodermic syringe. ; A yein is oicted in the mm of tho patient with tho nsunl nnticeptio precautions, aud tho salt water in-, jected in largo doses. A profuse perspiration nud general at'tivity of the secretory organs follow?, carrying away tho noxious matter present in the blood. Tho new remedy is rec ommended by several doctors in papers read recently bofore tho Academy of Medicine in Paris, and has been snc ceesfully employed in numerous' instances. In cufcs of anaemia, typhoid, hemorrhages, sodden shock, and even incases ol intoxication, this blood washing, it is mid, works won ders. For tome years surgeons have used a saline injection iu cases of collapse after an operntioD. It is thei tnost powerful touto known, and has saved many lives. Its cllicacy in ordinary diseases has, however, only recently been discovered. ' Modern medicine has a tendency to' retort to simple methods which recog-: nize tho ail curing powers ol water. Washing the t-tomoch, as practiced by several New York physicians, is of very recent origin, and is considered invaluable in cases of indigestion. A simple bath of warm water is often all that is necessary to restore the stomach to its normal condition, by removing the poisonous waste products which are not prof uselv thrown off by ' the secretory organs. By means of a' soft rubber tube put down tho throat water can be poured into tho stomach and siphoned out again. To wash the blood is, of course, more difficult, as the water has to be injected into a vein. It is well known that the blood of a frog can be drawn off and the blood of another frog substituted without greatly inc'onveuienciug the en nture. It was then found that a salt water solution enn be substituted instead of blood, to a considerable extent, at least, aud tho frog will live and be as sprightly as ever. This fact first gavo the scientists the idea of injecting an artificial scrum into the veins of a human being, either anaemio or intox icated. The new remedy is very simple in its action, and cun always, it is said, be employed with safety. Washington Star. Insanity Curable. Dr. Warren L. Bnbcock, of St. Law rence (N. Y.) Slate Hospital, has for live years been conducting highly scientific experiments to discover the cause of insanity, and at last has the supreme satisfaction of not only lo eating the germ of this disease, but by marvelous surgical operations, saving deranged minus. Dr. Uaoliock has ex tracted the germs of insanity from a lunatic and by inoculating rabbits made them crazy. This insanity germ the doctor destroys by first draining tne Hmnfil pnlnmn nf its wnt.prv rimil and then injecting aseptic or salt solu tions into the spinal opening, thus al laving the brain pressure and reuiov ing the cause of tbii heretofore im pregnable malady. Dr. Uabcock is scientist of acknowledged ability and. standing, and so fur, his operations nave been uniformly successful. A Tramp Canary.

EXT HA FEED FOIt YOTXO PWi There nro comparatively few largo milkers among sows, though there is considerable dilYercuco in this respect. Tho sows that were sot to breeding early nud in the intervals of breeding were kppt growing aud not fattened, give much more milk than those that were nlreaJy fat when set to breeding. It is, however, hardly worth while to encourage tho breeding of sows to bo extra largo milkers, as tho pigs can easily be satisfied with other feed that is equally good for thorn. Skim miik from the dairy is tho best, with the addition of somo cooked wheat middlings, of which a very small quantity will thicken when cooked so s to till a largo pail. If ono or two tablespoonfuls of linseed meal are conked with the middlings the feed will bo nearly or quite as good for tho lgs as that which the sow furnishes. and there is no limit to tho amount that can bo made. There is, there fore, no exeme for letting young pigs grow unthrifty because their dam oeg not furnish a proper supply of milk. EXPERIMENTS IS CATTLE FEEDtXrt. The finely finished lot of steers fat tened at tho University State farm are now held for Bale in dressed form in tho shambles of the twin cities. These animals, coma twenty head in all, are wo and three years old respectively, he major portion of them being nearer two than thrco yeara. Tho averago live weight was about 1250 pounds. Some of them were fed to determine, whether a moderate or n heavy meal ration is tho best in a pro longed period of feeding. Others were lea to show the relative valuo of dif ferent foods in fattening, and yet others to test the valuo of oil cake as a finishing food when fed in large quan tities along with ground corn. This year again it was found that steers, fed an average, of ten pounds ol meal per day during the entire fat tening period, make at least as much gain during the five months of the ex periment as those fed an averago of fourteen pounds per day. The feeders of the State- uso much larger quanti ties 01 food, as a rale ; henco the in ference that much of the food thus used must be wasted. In other words, when animals aro being finished they win take more concentrated food than they can properly digest if it is fed to them. It was found that a free ration of oil meal and corn produced extra ordinary gains for a short period, that is to 6ay, for about seventy days, but that it continued much longer than the period named the animals began to get shaky on their limbs. In other words, they could not be carried much longer than seventy to eighty days without a modification of diet. Minneapolis Times. A rorrLAn aquatic tlant. Thero is no other class of plants so rapidly growing in pubho favor as aquatics, and thero are many good reasons lor tneir popularity. They are successfully raited with great ease. and are not allected by long seasons of drouth, such as have prevailed daring recent years. While the beauty of old garden favorites has been impaired by drouth, aquatics have bloomed on in annual beauty. Aquatics not only bid defiance to drouth, but the hotter and brighter the weather tho more pro fusely they bloom. The great beouty and merit of the Sowers are the chief reasons of their popularity. The homo culture of aquatics is very Eltuple. Grand results may bo secured by those wrno navo means to construct large tanks, but these accommodating plants can be raised to much perfection in tabs made of oil or molasses barrels cut in two. These tubs can be grouped in a rockery or arranged in a row, aud bo prepare ! about tho mid dle of Msy by filling them half full with a mixture of loam and manure; plant tho roots in them and then cover with an inch or so of sand to give a neat finish, as the water soou becomes perfectly clear and pure, made so by growing plants. These plants may al so be planted from ono to three feet deep on tho margin of a lake or pond, aud will grow and bloom admirably without trouble or care. The true sacred Egyptian lotus produces leaves twenty to thirty inches in diameter on stems five to six feet high. Tho dou ble blooms are frequently over a foot across, of a novely milk white, shad ing into clear bright pink at tho edges. They are easy to grow, aud most pro fuse bloomers. The tubers should be planted below tho ice or frost line, if to be left out over winter. Farm and Home.

Tho rote of disintegration, ai well ns that of nitrification, depends in part Upon the chemical and physical character of the soil, and partly upon , tho temtictaturd and IlieieoruKicni conditions. Moreover, the soil lying in rough interfnrrows hns been subjected to tho action of frost ; it is in its upper layers so broken up and divided in all direc tions by tho powerful expansion of tho water when converted into ice, as to bo reduced to the condition of the greatest possiblo fineness, recognized and so much desired by tho farmer under tho term mellowness. It has consequently attained that degree of pulverization and poronsity which, with nu adequate degree of moisture, affords a solid standing ground for tho yonug plant, while at tho same timo enough air for tho de velopment of tho germ can penetrate tho sufaco soil, and iu tho upper layers nntrit ivo material for tho young plant dissolved by tho moisture of winter is olways present. It is, thero fore, iu aceordouco with reason not to plow tho loud nt all in tho spring, but to put iu tho seeds without further preparation than a previous harrow ing.

FAUMEKo who SPCrEEO. Farmers are divided into threo classes! First, those who tako np with everything new iu grains, vegetables, fruits and machinery without stop ping to think or studying thedomands of their market, the possibilities of their soil and peculiarities of the cli mate. Invariably they make failures. Tho second class aro thoso who nover bny or produce anything new in tho woy of grains, etc., use the same im plement their fathers did, irrigate only when the spirit moves them, let their cattle run around the straw pilo in winter, feeding them a few nub-, bins, mako all their batter in the sum- mor, and use tho old dash churn. They are homoly likened to a cow's tail, in asmnoh as they are always behind. i The third class are those who thins, study their market and soil, begin on a small scale and experiment until tho problem is solved. If a new fruit is being advertised and trees sold at enormous prices they buy but one and see if it saits their soil and climate. They will not set out a peach orchard in a swamp or a cherry orchard on an alluvial soil underlaid with gravel. This class is the one that is making money at farming the other two aro in the background. One and two are both bound for the samo place, but seemingly traveling in opposite direc tions. One acts without thinking; the other thinks without acting. One is extravagant in buying unnecessary things; the other extravagant in not bnying necessary articles. Ono has no fixed method of labor; the other's method of labor fixes him. These two classes are an anomaly, and, as Lamar tine said to Bobespierre, are "shad owy, undefined mixed." Not so with those designated as the third class. They have an aim in farming, and, as a result, have a well defined plan and comuinu brain and muscle, theory and practice know the old way, bnt adopt tho new and are a snocess. In the new agriculture of tho far West those farmers are legion, and are rap idly coming to the front. They be-, lieve in the modern theory of advance-, ment as applied to agriculture, and or i 1 ittering their condition by work ing along these lines.

They may do well enough on washing days, when a continuous fire through tho day becomes a necessity, bnt for cook ing a fire made of well dried wood that ,will heat up quickly aud as quickly go out is what is required. The wood fire also on most farms is cheaper than tho coal. It cau usually bo grown on somo part of the farm that would otherwise bo of a little use, and its only cost is that of cutting and pre paring for tho stove. Wood can also iu part take tho placo of coal for win ter on farms where it is abundant. Tho coal market is controlled by great railway monopolies that oppress not only the miner lint the coal consumer. Nappy is tho farmer who con if he will bo independent of them. We aro afraid that part ot tho increasing use of coal for fuel is duo to dislike of tho winter labor required to prepare tho wood fuel that might bi its substitute. This in olden times made no small part of tho winter's work, and though tho fuel was burned the work saved buy ing coal, and therefore paid enough to make no small part of tho prosperity of old fashioned farming in tho days when the rule was to only buy what was necessary, and what could not profitably bo produced on tho farm. Amoricau Cultivator. KEnrrso orr tite germs.. Tho object in canning fruit is to Dud somo chemical that will prevent tho development ot bacteria and yet bo safe when used in a strength neces Fary to accomplish this end. Solicyho neid, ono part to 1000 part of water, will prevent the dovolopmeut of bac teria, and iu this proportion no ill effect can como fiom oating what saiieo ono would ordinarily tako nt a meal. First of all, sugar is not necessary to preserve cauned fruit if they are put up air-tight, though tne flavor of somo is improved by the addition of it, Tho writer has fonn 1 the following method of canning the cheapest, easi est and most satisfactory, and would recommend it to others : Thoroughly heat the fruit, but do not allow it to boil. Fill the cans and leave thorn open fifteen to twenty minutes to give tho fruit timo to settle. Them fill np again, put tho covers on and screw down tight. Iu this way fruit will keep for years, and if kept in the dork will retain its original color and form. One can make cupboards of dry goods boxes for the fruit cans, and these may bo kept closed in the cellur. A word in regard to tho closing of cans to prevent tho entrance of germs. When M. Fasteur advanced his theory that all fermentation was caused by organisms so minute that they float about in tho air, he very soon an nounced that according to his experi ments these infinitesimal objects would not pass through cotton. Mauy peo ple use cotton to tie over tho boiled trait while it is still hot, and havo found that it keeps the germs out as efficiently as the rubber ring, or any amount of wax. The writor has also tried this experiment with tomatoes, corn, lima beans and other vegetables, and the results were perfectly satisfac tory, not even a particle of mold form ing in the can. In most cases tho cotton was simply tied over the canful of hot fruit ; in somo cases there was a piece of white paper put on first It prevent the cotton from dropping down and becoming juico-soaked. Tho latter way is preferable. Take the cottton just ns it comes off the roll, the thickness being about it as it un winds, then tio down with strong cord. This will be found an all-sufti-ciont method of preserving fruit for winter use. American Agriculturist. RECIPES.
