OAT CHAFF FOR FEET.—A year or two

find that they suddenly came up consid

continued for a d.\T or two, when the
cows feD off to their former quantity;
hat on feeding the chaff again, the fiow
again increased. Since then the v-ihie
of oat chaff as a milk-producer has been
satisfactorily pro red by us. This wonld
then make it advisable that when oats
are threshed the chaff should be saved

ADULTERATION OF BUTTER —The Sri
ew'ifCc American states that a great deal
of batter is daily sold in the citv of New
York, whieh is adulterated with a snb
stance made from cotton-see,! oiL It is
creditable to the fanners, that they are
not open to the charge of adulterating
their produce ; y t they suffer from the
dishonest competition of dealers who
make up and sell these fraudulent com
pounds, and by so doing affect unfavor
ably, not only the sale, hut the char
acter of the genuine article. As a mat
ter of curiosity, we describe an artificial
component which waa manufactured in
Paris to supply the want of real butter
during the late siege of that city. The
refnse materials left after the manufac
ture of atearine from fatty animal mat
ters, such as tallow, etc., consisting of
an oily paste, composed of oldne and
margarine, were washed in water acidu
lated with muriatic acid for the purpose
of bleaching it. It waa then subjected
to the action of a chemical solution for
a penod of three hours, during which
it was made to acquire the taste and color
of butter. This substance, manufactured
without any assistance from the cows,
was considered an excellent substitute
for butter, and was readily accepted in
the place of it by the people, who con
sidered it much superior to any other
artificial product of thia description.
SURFACE MANTIUNG.— Now that the
harvest is gathered and hnawd, the next
subject in order is that of tnannre—how
to make the most of the sources of supply
at hand, and how to dispose of the man
ure when procured. The supply of
home-made manure will never become
adequate to our needs, and it is only by
means of .he greatest cirefulness and
diligence that sufficient can lie gathered
together to keep life in our soil. • ' Feed
your soil when it is huugry" any* an old
proverb, in which case the proverb is
not "concentrated wisdom" at all, nor
indeed wisdom of any kind. Soil should
never be allowed to become bungrv.
Before this can occur d tmage is being
done, to repair which will need some
manure to be expended, leaving le-s
for present needs. With all our economy
we shall never have manure sufficient to
supply our wants. It shonld therefore
be a matter of study how to apply who!
we have or con procure, that it may do
moet good. By spreading on the surface
we get not only the strength and fertility
of the manure, but whatever benefit
occurs from protecting or mulc'iiug the
soil Bare straw nndecomposed b* been
found to exert a good influence by the
mere covering it h i* afforded, and heavy
crops which afford dense shade, as peas,
clover, or buckwheat, are reckoned to
benefit this soil simply from this sha
ding, Then the spr< ailing of manure on
the surface to remain there during the
time the laud is Iving idle between crops
will have this effect, which will lie addi
tional to the direct manurinl lieneftts
accruing. Gardeners follow this system,
and farmer* could not follow a better
lead than that of the gardener*. The
more neailythe condition of the farm
approaches that of the garden, the necrer
approach will lie made in size and value
of the crops, and in nothing can we learn
mora than in their system of manuring.
PREPARING AND PLANTING AN ORCHARD.
—ln reference to the preparation of the
ground for and the planting of an orch
ard, the Gardener't Month'y offer* the
following suggestion s : "We feci that
the advice constantly given to subsoil,
and underdrain, and manure, to the ex- i
tent of hundreds of dollars per acre, is
too costly to follow, and of little use after
it is taken. If we were going to prepare ;
a piece of ground for an orchard, we
should manure it heavily and put in a
crop of potatoes ; then in October man
ure ogam lightly, and put in rye. On
this, in April, we should sow red clover. ]
The rye off. we should then consider iti i
. ready to plant trees. For apples, pear*, i
plums, or cherries, we should mark out i
the rows tea feet apart, and for the trees i
ten feet from each other. This will be 3
twice as thick as they will be required i
when fully grown, but they grow much 1
better when thick together; and they i
will bear more than enough fruit to nay '
for the room they occupy, liefore the
time comes to out every other one a may.
We say the rows ton feet smart, but every
fourth row should be twelve feet, to af
ford room to get between the blocks with
a cart
" Plant as early in Oetotier aa poaaible. i
bnt it can lie continued until the ajv
preach of frost. To plaut, a hole can be
dug in the stubble just large enough to
hold the roots without crantpinir them.
We should tread in the soil, and trim iu
the head very sovorvly. The next spring
we should just break the crust formed by
the winter rains about the tree, and tban
leave every tiling to grow as it might-
The clover will lie ready to cut in Juue
or July. The twelve feet rows may lie
done by machine, the rest by hand. Hay
enough will lie made to pay for ail the
labor fei one year and a little more.
After the hay has been hauled off, bring
back some rich earth of any kind, and
spread a Unit a quarter or a naif an inch
thick over the surface of the ground dis
turbed in making the hole. This will
keep the grass from growing very strong
just over the roots. Keep on this way
utiunaliy, everv two or three veais giviug
the w hole snrtuce of the orchard a top
dressing, for the sake of the grass, uud
it will lie found to tie the most profitable
way of making the orchard ground jay
for itaelf, until the fruit crops eome in,
that one can adopt. The trees also will
be model* of health and vigor, aud when
they will commence to bear, will do so
regularly and abundantly.
" The dwarf trees we would plant ou
the same system, but six instead of ten
feet apart. ' Few soils are too rf for fruit
trees, Onlv in wet anils plant ON the
surface, aud throw up the earth over
them from between, ao as to make a ditch
or furrow to carry away the surface
water. On the plan of anuual surface
dressings which we have outlined, the
feeding roots will thus always keep above
the level of standing water; and when
they can do this, it will not hurt the
trees, though the hrjt roota are immersed
in water for half the year."

A Frightful Affair.
At Paoli, Orange connty, Ind., Prof.
Wilbur made arrangements for a balloon
ascension. He was to be accompanied
Iby George H. Knapp. As they were
I about getting into the balloon the cords
gave way, and they made a spring for
| the car, but only succeeded in grasping
tbe ropes. As the balloon rose Knapp
let go, and fell at a height of abont tliir
; feet without serious injury. Professor
, Vv ilbur held on and attempted to climb
j into the basket, but was unable to do
so, and tbe balloon shot upward-, rapid
!ly with the leronaut hanging tielow. At
; a height of about one mile tbe doomed
j man let gn his hold and came whirling
ito he earth. At the height be had at
I tained lie looked like a small stick about
| a foot long. As he approached the earth
; he was coming down head foremost, then
spread out horizontally, then doubled
up, turned over, and then straightened
out with his lead downward. As be
\ struck the earth he fell upon bis head
and hack. His head was uiariicd int3
an inextinguishable mars. 'llie body
made a hole in the ground eight inches
deep, and it rebounded fonr feet frotn
where it struck. To add to the painful
character of the accident the professor's
young wife and little daughter were on
the ground, aud witnessed the terrible
affair.
A FABMER'H TRICK.—A Canadian far
mer named Harvey, and whose melon
patch bad nftnd ranch from the steal
ing propensities of boys in the neigh
borhood, recently attempted to put a
atop to his troubles in an ingenious way.
One night aa some men were passing
hia farm they heard the report of a gun,
and ran to the place whence the found
proceeded, and here found Harvey stand
ing over a boy who lay moaning, aaid
be had been ahot in the back, and re
fused to tell his name. The fanner
ordered the men to leave, telling them
he intended to ahoot any other person
he might find stealing hia melons. 80
the neighbors were terrified, and boys
refrained from robbing the pitch there
after. The joke coiwhteu in the fact
that no one had been ahot stall, the boy
being in collusion with the man, and
merely pretended that he had been
wounded.
THAT FOOLISH Doo.—ln Toledo, Ohio,
recently, the attention of a lady was at

the most bitter terms. "You fool, you,"
he went on ; "you fool; I'm ashamed
of you. You're the very darndesfc fool
I ever" did see; confound yon !" The
lady finally interposed to suggest the
unfitness of such language toward his
associate, when he replied. " Why, I
wasn't talking to this boy; I was talking
to my dog here. "Why, don't you be- 1
iieve, ma'am, the fool barked at that)
stone dog back there in that dooryard. f

*' llow to Ltre on a Sixpence a Bay."
Thia i* the title of a little pamphlet
jiiat nnhliidied by an Fngiiah gentleman,
l>r Nichols, in which he undertakea to
*how Hint "the average man" own not
only live on a sixpence day, but that
anon living, like mirly rising, "will make j
liirn healthy,wealthy,and wise," Perhaps
it was not to lie expected that the stx
jienee a day should cover the cost of
clothes, houae-renl, rsics, taxes, Slid
other concomitants of civilisation; *•
we acouieace with s sigh in the propri
ety of leaving such matter* out of the
co'nsideratio.l. It is enough to le con
viticed that, "so far as food and drink
are concerned, eveiy one can live com
fortably, nicely, and healthily, on a six
itenee a day."" We are ea|ieei*l)y earoful

sure it wasn't drmk, they might tie al
lowed to have it"
We move cautiously forward, and the
doctor soon shows of what he ia capable,
i "Whetlier we eat milk, butter, or oheeae
or beefsteak, or a mutton-chop, we eat
j grawi at necoud-hsnd," he says ; " and
i all flesh is gnu*," he quotes in a sense
which was certainly not iutended in the
Scriptural passage, and which would
justify cannitinlnuu. What conclusion
ia he about to draw t Are we, in order
jto keep within our six notice a day, to
follow the example of Neb ichaduessar ?
But thing* are not quite so lind as we
fear. He puts his veto UIHUI all flesh of
land animals; but he allows an occa
sional jienny worth of flmlt, and the grain*,
j fruits, and vegetables he recommends
are in numlier as the grains of sand on
i the seashore. If yon wi*h to be a real
epicure on a sixpence a day, "a penny
i worth of potatoes and a pennyworth of
dried codfish boiled together, then both
mashed and mixed together with a bit
!of butter, make an excellent dish. Add
a pennyworth of greens and yon never
need dine better." Of course, if yon

and the reply is rain-water. Filtered, if
voa like, but IU any case, rain-wwter.
the doctor declare# that it were far bet
ter to drink even light w nies than tea
and coffee, which, under certain circum
stance*, entail all sorts of diseases, sud
: especially paralysis and apoplexy. The
fsre he apjieors particularly to rec
omuieud is oatmeal assisted by rain
water; and he desires this combination
to be taken "in pleasant company, gnylv
and mirthfully, and iu every case, with
thanksgiving."
But has the doctor any examples to
advance of persona who turn really
lived ou a sixpence or less a day ? He
lias many; but it canuot be said that
they are satisfactory or encouraging
The cases he alludes* to of persons who
are believed to have lived on very little
food, or "none whatever" belong, as he
justly observe*, to the sujwruatural or
der. " The many abstemious saints, too,
whom he mentions bv name, can not be
considered to strengthen his cause ; for
he undertakes to gratify the aeasea as
well as satisfy the mere IKHIIIV wants of
men, whereas the abstemiousness of
the saints was confessedly penitential.
Nor is the doctor more fortunate in the
"millions" who,accordng to his account,
"live on 1H than a sixpence a day."
He finds them in some poor-law unions,
in the Irish prisons, and in other
place*; but he makes no attempt to show
that they find their eouditiou "delightful
to the sense*," or that, however healthy
they may be, they are witty,
or wise."
The Murder of a Chief Justice.
Mr. Justice Norman, Acting Chief-
Justice of the High Court of Judicature,
at Calcutta, India, who died from wounds
received at the lmnds of an assasaiu,
was the sou of a Somersct-dure bunker,
and was called to the Bar in 1852. In
1836 he became authorized reporter for
the Court of the Exchequer, aud in 1861
was given the judgeship of the Supreme
Court at Calcutta. He enjoyed the rep
illation of being a profound jurist, ami
was peculiarly gentle, kind aud consid
erate. though never flinching from his
own opinion. A few months ago he wit*
appointed Chief-J list ice during the ab
sence of Sir Richard Conch.
The murderer, who is believed to be a
mcmler of the Wahabee conspiracy, as
certained at what tiuie the Court ojiened,
waited on the steps until the arrival ot
Mr. Justice Norman whom ho struck
with a tapering Ooorkha knife. When
stabbed, Justice Norman fell, but rveov
ered himself and ran, thru stopped and
threw a brick at the murderer, who was
promptly captured. M. Justice Norman
received one wound iu the atalomen and
one on the left shoulder between the
spine and blade bone. The murderer
made no defence. In reply to a ques
tion. he said that "the earth is sunk be
low the water, and the men have gone
up to the sky ; the dog is eating the
wall. He is believed to be feigning
madness. He is a wild, ignorant man,
and evidently an adept at murder. It
is believed that the crime had some con
nection, with the final trial of Ameer
Khan, a leading YVahabee, which was to
take place in a short time

The following story is told by the
San Francisco Ckrmide of Meiggs, the
great railway prince of Pern, who ran
awav in debt from San Francisco, some
years ago : Mrs. Josslvn is a washer
woman, and works very hard for her liv
ing. In the palmy days of Harry Meiggs
she deposited with him no less an amount
than 82,500, and when Meiggs and her
money was gone, the time in which a
woman could lay up so large a sum from
tee profits of her business was gone also.
But she washed on, and kept her head
alove water. Home two or three months
ago she read in The Overland Monthly.
or some other publication, of how much
money her old banker had made in
Honth America Wv building railroads,
r.nd with a beautiful faith in human na
ture, which cannot be too highly com
mended, she embarked upon the Panama
sb-ann r and wended her way to the
sultry South, where Meiggs now holds
may, Hhe sought the millionaire in the
gorgeous residence so graphically de
scribed in Thr Overland, and presented
her bank book and told her tale. M- iggs
listened, and when she had finished he
handed her a check for the amount of the
deposit and interest from its date to the
time of payment. Hhe departed n
wealthier and happier woman, and re
turned to Han Francisco, where she ar
rived by the last steamer.
TROUBLE IN UTAH.— There can he lit

that at the last session pf Congress a
most stringent bill was passed by tbe
House to punish polygamy in that terri
itory, but failed to be acted on in the
8-mute. It w;:s nevertheless an ml mi lus
tration measure, and the policy it sought
to enforce is assumed now to exist in
other statute*". The course of the Uni

therefore, with the fullest Executive ap

The administration is evidently deter

if possible, forcibly if necessary.

ridge, th* terminus of the maiu line of
th* St. Paul and Pacific Road, on the
Bed Hivcr, Minnesota, took fire, and
fanned by the high wind which pre
vailed at the time, tptead with frightful
rapidity. No one but those who hare
lived upon the immense jrairtes of tbe
\\ *t can form any idea what a fearful,
awe iuapiriug, terrific sight it ta to ace
the fire run riot over buudreda of mil®*
of territory, covered only with fuel to
feed th* insatiate monster, which travels
with tin? *|>eed of the wind, devouring
everything in it* course. Any attempt
to describe the grandeur of such a aignt
would be won* than ue!m Starting
at first from a small beginning, the
fliuuea gradually spread out, gathering
force with every gust of wind, constant"/
w.dctiing their une, until vnth mac,
rioton* fury tlicy lcp aud plunge iu
every direction, ticking up everything in
their march, like a very demon o! de
struction, until tby remind the awe-in
spir*d beholder of that scene which the
children of Unw l beheld, when they
were led by " a pillar of the cloud bv
day," ml "a pillar of fire by night.
At such a time everything living fiiea in
terror, for it it Is worse than useless to
contend with the fiery monster whose
breath " burnetii like sn oven."
Buck a scene the resident* of Ike hi ate
wi-al of ike " Big Wood*," Along the
Bi Paul and Pacific Road, bavo wit
lieaaed. k'roui a small beginning some
where near ike western boundary of Ike
State. Ike fire spread until it reached
the " ltig Woods," 150 miles from the
point of starting. In striking the wood*
it was not stayed in ita course, bul the
flame* seizing upon the dry uuder
-1 Irtish, and from thence to the tall tree*
of fhe forest, it extended ita line for a
distance of fifteen tuiliw in the heavy
timber until it reached Smith Lake.
When once fairly under headway in tin-
Umber, tho scene in dearriiied as grand
Iteyond the power of pen or pencil pic
ture. Roaring, crackling, with a sound
that could be heard for mil en, the flame*
tore their way, leaving behind a black
ened, smoking, desolate waste to mark
their onward march. Everything in
| their course was destroyed. The grain
and hay-stacks, the corn-fields, fences,
and, in some instance*, we have heard
of the rude homes and scanty house
hold goods ol the settlers, all fell prey
to the insatiate monster. The terror
stricken jieople tied, leaving all their
; worldly possessions behind, thankful to
escape with their lives.
It is impossible to estimate the loss
caused by this wide-spread conflagra
tion. At lad account* the fire was still
raging north of the line of the road,
ami where it will lie stopped cannot 1*
told. We very much fear that were the
full particulars of the loss known, it
wonla show the destruction of an im
mense amount of grain, hay, fence*, Ac.,
Ac., in the territory over which the de-
Htroying element has swept and is atill
sweeping.— Mmnemta iHt/ter.

A pleasure yacht called the Jeunie
Lee, owm-d by Mr. O. B. Jorrolda, of
Denver City, was burned to the water's
edg, at a piant some ten miles off Mon
tnuk Lighthouse, on Long Island Bound,
by which two lives were loot and sevoa
others greatly endangered.
It teems that Mr. Jcrrolds was thrown
off his ludance by the launcbiug of the
vessel, and grasped the clmins on which
was swung the lamp, a kerosene pints!
bulb holding about a quart of oil. The
chains gave way and the lamp was hurled
to the floor. The oil at the instant
exploded, and a sheet of flame leaped to
the ceiling. Mr. Jerrolda shouted "Cm!"
und aroused his wife aud two eldent
children, whom lie dragged on <leek.
The nurse and the youngest child slept
on the opposite aide of the saloon, beyond
the wall of flame which, by this time,
wo* sweeping rapidly over tho wood
work. The smoke was sliding, and as
Mr. Jerrolds rushed into it he full, choked
und helpless. They endeavored to cut
uway an interveniug partition in the for
ward hold lo reach lhat aide of the cabin
where the nurse and child were, but the
smoke |mured out so densely that they
were forced to retreat and abandon the
victims to their fate.

Ignatia was looking up at him with grateful

"All is forgiven and forgotten " said the

" 1 will not take her to Redruth while that

Hnddenly two voting men came aauntoring

One approached the door of the coach occu

in. A guard came forward and sddreecd tbe
young men, and ushered UM-IU into the very

Ignatia hurriedly da w ber vuil over her

The next instant the train was once more on

Colonel Rodruth looked at the intruders

laugh and pompous manners. The Cokmel
did not bestow upon him a second glance.
His companion was slender, tall and grace

complexion, hi* forehead high, bis eye® of a

of attraction and fascination. His ayes re
minded the Colonel, oddly enough, of the eyvs

the Colonel. " And I believe be is at heart a
