M -
Fanner' Institute.
Tlia sf.venth annual meeting of t lie
Fanners' Institute of Juniata county,
was held at East Waterford, Febru
ary 22 a::d '23 18'.3.
The meeting was advertised to
open at 10 o'clock A. M., but owiu j
to tho drifting snow which blockod
both railroads and public highways,
those having the institute in charge,
did not arrive until 3:130 P. M.
A Lirge audience had gathered,
and the Instituto was immediately
organized.
In the absence of both President
and Yice President, the meeting was
called to ordpr by the Secretary, D.
B. Esh, when Mr. Joseph II. Landi
of Reed's Gap, was elected Presi
dent pro tern; and adjourned to meet
at h V. M.
The evening session vim opened
by the cboir of tho Presbyterian
church at East Waterford, after which
the chairman delivered an address of
welcome in which the following
good points were made.
The farmer must learn to think,
talk and legislate for himself as well
as to plow, sow aud reap.
The American farmer leads the
world.
Timrs are Lard here, yet better
than iu almost any other country on
earth.
We wo'.r better clothes, eat better
food, and live in better furnished
pomes.
We tnnfit find or make a wav to
makes farms pay better.
Success in farming as well as
iu any other industry follows well
directed effort.
The Instituto wis then favored
with well executed instrumental mu
sic by Mi.ia Mollie Gilliford, organ,
and Messrs. William Reams and
James McMulliu, violins.
Mr. W. H. Groninger was intro
duced and presented the fcubject of
TOBACCO CUImtE.
The gentlemen showed by his talk
that be understood the business, and
made the process of raising, curing
and packing of tobacco very plain.
This crop bo aid requires pood,
cltf;iu,culiure, elite aUfutiuti m
worming, honest gra lior. with act
ual practical knovilodgo iu grading
and selling. If theso are giTon large

worth of fertilizar per acre are need
ed to keep up fert.lizing.
CASE OF FARM ANIMALS.
was the next subject which was op
ened by N. II. Esh, who counseled
shelter from the inclemencies of the
weather, variety of good food, pure
water aud constant care.
Turning stock out at freezing
weather ia a losing business, and
cruelty to animals. In hot weather,
pasture at night, feed extra early in
the fall. Fivzan grass is poor food.
Attention to small details, and good
rations pay every time.
THIHSDAY MOBK1NO
at 10 o'clock Mr. J. B. Shannon of
Lewistown, told how to make six per
cent, out of a fiinn.
The man must be in love with his
avocation, must run his business in
stead of loafing.
More depends on th9. farmer than
on the farm.
II 9 must us 3 brains as well ai mus
cle and a good ileal of both.
1 borough work, makes first class
products, whatever they are.
Attend to the small crops such as
pctatoep, cidons, poultry, aud dou't
forget tbo frui;s.
This paper creitod a lively discus

Report was adopted after a warm
discussion.
D. li. Mc Williams read a paper
entitled, "Watchman, What of The

closely affect the farmer and their
duty to thair calling, their children,
their country and mankind.

Gas in Hollow Trees.
A correspondent of the Hunting
don Local News: I am sure I have
room to learn many things and one
of my latest discoveries ia in cutting
timber. Anyone who is accustomed
to cutting trees down will find, if tho
tree is hollow with no air hole, that
as soou as tho axs strikes tho hollow
there will be a gas or air come out
with a hissing noise. This gas is in
tlammuble and will ignite as soon as
yon put a match lo itj The strange
psrl is it wiij j,j -z, vet you can't see
it but the roaring" crackliug and
hoat is enough to convincs one that
it it there.
The first one I tried when I got it
in full Hist, I ran away sorao dis
tance, thiuking the old" tree might
blow np, but I think there is no dan
ger, us I have burned out a numbor
since. I Lave never found on, but
what would burn, unless the gas had
escaped before I got lie match to it.
The Use of Herbs.
Except for culinary purpescs the
common herbs are but little used in
tho modern household, but it would
bo well to give them the place of
many of tho drugs administered to
our little one. There is no doubt
that so far as possible, the trealui:nt
of infant and child ills should con
sist in regulated food and habits to
suit the child in question. Bat this
I is often a tedious proces., tho rosult
! of which th young and experienced
mother awaits impationtly while long
ing for some alleviation for Lor small
sufferer.
To such the knowledge
cf
a use of ft fuw of tha herbs on
which
our grandmother. placad their reli
ance would never come amiss. True,
the day has gone by when these
formed tho entire materia niediea of
these 'diomo physicians," but the
virtues of these well known plants
!are the sanao row ai then. In this
day of quack molicircs, syrups, l al-
I Barns, cordials, etc., the old plan is
'certainly worth a trial, and if its
! merils were better known it would
doubtless bs more ciner.iliv ndov.ted.
VAI.UE OF HOMF. CEUEDIES.
It ia of the greatest importance to
call in a good physician at the first
symptoms iu the clii'd of a s-rious
illness, but in tho home whsr.o thero
are restless little o-ies liable to m-. at
witk accident, catch sudden colds,
and be suojct to the thousand and
one ailment common to childhood,
the mother will fiud a few tested
home remedies of iuestimable value.
nirrex poisons.
Most of the modern nostrums are
narcotics in some form, however
much they are called "purely vege
table." Purely vegetable they may
be, but so is opium, yet certainly it
was never meant for children. To
the tired mother, longing for a bight's
rest, after her day of housework,
brain woik, and baby tending, it is
perhaps not strango that the temp
tation which lies iu tho disguised
narcotic is hard to rtsist. She thus
secures sleep for her child, at the ex
pense of a puny, nervous baby, while
she tries to overcome evil by evil, by
a more lavish use of tho drug which
caused the trouble. If these hidden
poisons were once discarded, cartful
study given to herbs as home reme
dies, end their various medicinal
qualities once thoroughly under
stood, many of the disorders which
make our little ones peevish burdens
instead of a constant joy would soon
be remedied.
T2STF.D Cl'EES FOR COUKON ILLS.
Use catnip tea insteadof tbe opium
nostrums, and it will soon prove its
value as a sedative:
For young bibies troubled with
colic nothicg brings up the wind and
soothes the screming child better
than anipe tea, weak, slightly iweet
eued, and given in small spoonfuls
until relief is ob'ained. Do not use
essence of anise or annisette, but tbe
infusion of the simple herb, which it
is as well to wash in bulk, putting
into a straiuer"nd allowing cold wa
ter to drain through it, then spread
upon paper to dry. ,,
Sage is also useful in colic, as a
safeguard against suspected cold,
care being taken as to exposure af
terward. Tho virtues of sago, are
seeu, too, iu its affects upon a slye,
which will soon disappear after a
lukewarm bath of it
SPECIAL VALUE OF PJ1PPSKMEKT.
The uses cf pepermint stro so many
and so we'd known that I will t-peak
only of tho way in which the power
ful oil is used in Micbigar, where so
much of it is distilled. Ti-.e ensence
is safer and is better in ttiis case to
get it rather than tho herb. In the
VTest it is considered a f ovoreign
remedy, and especially it is esteem
ed as a gargle for a sore thoat; using
in hot water on retiring to break np
a cold; and as a liniment for swollen
tonsils, neuralgia and even sprains.
One touch of the cork from the oil
bottle from the bridge of the nose
and beneath tho nostrils will insure
easy breathing for tbe night in influ
enza. Y ARROW, ELDER FLOWERS AND HOPS.
As a weak tea yarrow is invalua
ble in peroisteni bowl troubles, while
it quenches that intorable thirst
which is so often present. For a
weak and ailing child a bath of
strong yarrow, using roots, leaves,
stems and blossoms is very strength
ening. A warm infusion of elder flowers !
is g?nfy itinin'atin;? to a weakstom
ache, given in Bniall doses, say a
winegiassf jll for a year old child
twve or three times a day. The in
ner bark of the elder, shared fine
and boiled dawn in cream, makes a
very healing slve for burns and
abrasions.
Hops hold a worthy place on our
list, aud their uaes are manifold. An
infusion is an excellent sedative for
"children of a larger growth," and
the dry hop pillow will prove no less
grateful to the restless baby, while
his older brother, screaming with the
pain from an ulcerated tooth, will
find immediate help from a small
bag of hops dipped in vinegar and
placed between his cheek and a hot
water bag or hot flat iron.
OXIONS FOR CROUP.
Onions are almost a specific for
croup, and are always to be had.
When that unmistakable respiration
calls the mother to act promptly, let
her quickly cut them in pieces, stew,
fry, boil or bake, with, if possible, a
small bit of pork or lard, and place a
bag of them at once upon the little
one's chest. Now let her have a
largo onion cut in thick slices, sugar
placed between each slice, and as
soou as the juice begins to flow she
has ready one of the best croup
syrups. It is quite as effective as
ipecac in ordinary cases, and in large
doses will even prove emetic. It
loosens at once. Care should be
taken to protect the child from drafts,
as onions open the pores of the 6kin.
Iu a case of real croup, a physician
should be called as quickly as possi
ble, but the "croupy cough," so com
mon to some children may be quick
ly relieved by this means. And many
ailments not serious enough to re
quire a doctor, but making tho child
uncomfortable and restless, may bo
quickly cured by these simple reme
dies, intelligently med; and tho feel
iug of perplexity and helplessness
which every young mother has ex
perienced will soon disappear if the
mind is well stored with a lint of
thoroughly tested home medicines.
Cold in St retersbiirg.
Tbo cold has been excessive in St.
Petersburg, and for weeks wood fires
have been burned in tbo squares and '
streets of tho city in an effort to !
make necessary outdoor business en-!
durable Tbo streets have, however,
boon practically deserted. The dou-'
b!e windows in the stores and hous
es are mostly iced over and frozen
up. J
The Level Prarle.
"If a horse could stand it,'" said S.
A. Rowbotham. a well kuown citizen
of Winnipeg, Manitoba, "a man could
leave Winnipeg and ride 1000 miles
west and corthweet over a level
prarie before he would be obstruct
ed by tho mountains. This g:ves an
idea of the grat territory lying west
cf Winnipeg, which to the Eastern
man seems wy out of tbe world.
Tho soil of this prarie produces the
finest spring wheat grown anywhere,
and this enormojj plain which I
huve just mentioned will in a faw
years be the great granary of the
world. Eastern people have a misty
iiUa of cur expansive territory. We
ara just commencing to gror wheat
compared to a decade hence, though
cur crop two years ago was C0.000,-
000 bushels.
We have but little snow and in the
many years that I reside at Manitoba
1 never saw the top of the bright
prario grass covered. Cattle fairly
roll iu fat, and we are becoming a
great cattlG country. While most of
our settlers are from across the wa
ter, yet the number from the West
ern States is yearly increasing. We
have no wild west frontier scenes.
There are no settlers killed over dis
puted claims, us has been an every
day story ia the west for years. Our
homestead laws require a three
yeais residence of six months each.
Laud may be preempted, too. Gold
has been discovered in wonderfully
rich quartz deposits a few miles cast
of Winnipeg, and paying mills have
just been erected by Minneapolis
C9pituli6t. I predict n 'rush' to th ;
lake cf tho woods district next yer.
Winnipeg Lbs 35,000 inhabitants, and
is a thriving city. Our winters are
cold but we do not iniud them. Tbe
atinosphero is dry and tho days are
dear, fresh and sunny, murky weath
er being almost unknown." Wash

A Question uf Clothing.
From the) New York Sun.
On tho northern shores of Lake
Nyaxa live the Wakoude, described
by all travellers as cue of tho finest
tribes of Centrrl Africa. Lieulenant
Nuuibtaedt, a Gsrman traveler has
called attention to one remarkable
result of the proximity of white men,
who have established mit-sionary
stations in that region.
Tbe Wakonde have thriven by the
arts of peace, and hardly any part of
savage Africa can show so many
flourishing plantations as their coun
try. They manifest their primitive
simplicity in many ways, and in none
more than by their attire, which is
chiefly conspicuous for its absence;
for the Wacondo aro among the
least clad of African peoples. A gir
dle of brass or copper wire suffices
for the ma, while a very small bit cf
braided leather adorned with beads
is full dress for tho ladies of the
tnbe.
Until the whites caaiO among them
their utter lack of clothing suggest
ed to this people net the siihhest
thought of indecuruni. Clcthing is
not an essential of comfort mnoLg
them, and no sense of shame or mod
esty suggested its use. The Wak
onde were simply animls in their in
nocence and simplicity.
Tho whites, however, have been
trying to instil into their minds an
idea that never occurred to them be
fore, that it is immodest to be un
clothed. The well-meaning teachers
have not succeeded in converting the
nstives to their ideas'of dress reform,
but tho Wacocde have shown them
selves willing to mako some conces
sions to tbe predjudices of the new
comers. Whenever tbey are aware
that a man is approaching, men and
women alike disappear in the plan
tations, where they pluck a few ban
ana leaves ar.d stick them in their
girdles. Having thus made their
toilet, they present themselves to!
their visitors in the calm .confidence '
that, arrayed in their leaves they
wid net offend the inscrutable sense
of propriety of the missionaries, who
had prescribed cotton cloth?, but had
been compelled to compromise cn
the foliage of the banana plunt
These missionaries seem entirely
to overlook the fact that dress is
really nothing but a matter of cus
tom; that millions of people who
think the uncovered faces of our wo
men on the street are shameful have
habits of attire that do not accord
with our notions of propriety; and
that instilling into the minds of sav
ages, ideas of indecorum where none
whatever had existed may not be, af
ter a? I, the best way to improve and
benefit their immortal souls.
Revolutions hr the W. M. S.. Of
.Mrs. C Rodgers.
We have lately in the experience
of the Woman's Missionary Society
of the United Presbytenan church of
Mexico, been called to sustain a
heavy loss in the removal by death of
Mrs. Charlotte Rodgers. She had
been identified with, this society
from the lime of its organization on
January 8tb, 1879, and up to th?
time of her death wes a faithful
earnest worker for the advancement
of the Master's Cause, and the pro
motion of bis glory. Her influence
was ever on the side of right in all
her associations with others, and in
the society her prayers and efforts to
add to the interest in our meetings,
will long be felt and remembered.
Her removal was sudden but did not
find her unprepared, for on the af
ternoon of the day on which she re
ceived tha injury, which resulted in
her death, talking with her pastor
about the probable result of the in
jury, she said she was certain that it
would be for her good. If she re
covered the Savior had more work
for her to do for him, if it wonld
terminate in her death that would
be her great gain, for she would im
mediately ontcr into glory But she
is gone. She will mingle with our
songs of praise on earth U0 more.
Ia our meetings thcro w'U b; ft va
cant cha!r. .Yi sliall miss liL-r kimt
ly greetings and wise counsels, but
we would sav, "It is the Lord, let
him do what seemeth him good;' and
we her fellow workers in this society
would adopt the following rsolu
lions as expressive of the high csti
nia'.e in whi"h wo held her, and our
consciousness of the loss wo have
sustained:
1st. Resolvtd: That in this dispen
sation we hear God urging us to
greater diligence in the discharge of
our duties, that we plead with th
God that has bereaved ns, to aroute
us to greater diligence, that we msy
aid in repairing the breach that has
been made by tho removal of such
au active and efficient laborer from
our midst.
2nd: That looking i;t how she Lv
ed and died, wo are inspired w.tli
the same confidence with which sho
wai animated with reference to the
future and that to ba absent from the
body was for her to be present with
the Lord.
3rd: That we all livo so that
will be able to look forward to a l.up
