Apply into nostrils with little finger.

Farmers should look oyer their stock at this season of the year, and not keep stock all winter to be fed and boused at a considerable coflt, only to find, when spring comes, that it is worth no more, and perhaps less, than it was in the fall. This rules applies not only to cattle aud sheep, but to poultry. Moreover, the principal may apply to crops. Where a reasonable profit can be obtained by selling the crops ofthe fields and orchards in the fall, it is better to sell them than to bold for higher prices. There is always a risk in keeping, for prices may not rise, and the crops kept may be badly affected by atmosphere or other causes not considered. So far as live stock is concerned, it is pretty certain that next spring will see lower prices than at present prevail. Meat is still very dear, in spite of the glow ing crop reports from all parts of the land ; but as the people begin to realize the extent of the crops they will .begin to clamor for lower prices, and a de cline must eventually come. Money realized for stock or crops now and de posited safely will draw interest, and can neither die nor decay, whereas the live stock may do the one and the crops the other. The wise and well-to-do farmer is not he who has a great surplus of stock or crops on hand. Success is as much due to selling at the right time as in buying at the right price. Reasonable profits and prompt returns should be the rule of the farmer, who, jußt as sure ly as a merchant, will find it well not to keep any kind of salable material on hand too long.

A most carefully prepared report of tbe population of tbe various countries of the world is that issued from time to time by Drs. Behm and Wagner. A new edition of this publication has just appeared, tbe previous one having been two yearsjago. Within this inter valfcensuses have been taken in a large number of countries, and tbe result of these are embodied in this work. Bat in tbe case of some countries no official statistics are to be bad, and for such the figures presented are necessarily tbe result of computation or even con jecture. Tbe report of tbe population of China, for instance, is but an esti mate, while that of Central Africa can be little better than a guess. The re sults given by Bebm and Wagner are, however, generally accepted as the most trustworthy published. Tbe total population of tbe globe Is now reported by them at 1,433,800,000. According to tbeir last report it was 1,455,900,000. This difference would indicate a decrease of 22,000,000, but as a matter of fact there has, according to these authorities, been an increase of more than 33,000,000. This is ex plained by tbe fact that tbe population cf China has been very much over-es timated heretofore. In the last issue of this work it was given at 434,000,- 000 ;it is now put at 379,000,000. In fact, in those countries alone in which censuses have been taken tbe official returns show an aggregate increase of 32,000,000 during the proceeding inter val of ten years. Tbe number of peo ple inhabiting tbe larger division of tbe globe, as given by Bebm and Wagner, are as follows: Europe, 327,743,000 ; Asia. 795,591,000; Africa, 205,823,000; America, 100,415,000 ; Australia and Polynesia, 4,232,000; Polar regions, 82,000. Russia is credited with 83,- OOO.OOO^inbabitants; China, 379,000,- 000;. Japan, 36,000,000, and British India 252,000,000.
