HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN.
Road Dust In the Hen House.
The extreme and long continued heat
of this Rummer, extending as It did late
Into the month of September, hag been
a prolific source of the multiplication of
all kinds of vermin on fowls. Those
who were either to Indifferent to adopt
plans for the suppression of the pests, or
or who are notsufllcently versed in the
little convenient tricks of the trade to
know how, must sutler pecuniarily,
while the poor chickens must bear the
burden upon their innocent backs. It
is well known that oil in liberal quanti
ties is sure death to all Insects. This is
due to the stopping up of the breathing
openings along the sides of the Insect,
like the port holes of a man-of-war.
Thus oil causes death by suffocation.
well fed animals produce oil enough on
their bodies, thus keeping the insects on
them in moderate subjection, while ill
fed half-starved animals are sure ulti
mately to fall a prey to these parasites.
It will thus be seen that well-fed fowls
have on their bodies, a partial means for
keeping down their enemies ; but there
Is no doubt that they do much better If
aided In this warfare by the skill of their
owners. To accomplish this, many use
kerosene or crude coal oil, or any kind
of cheap oil to brush over the walls of
the hen house, and particularly over the
perches and about the nests. Oil, how
ever, is a nasty thing to have about, and
while it banishes vermin it Is very apt
todiBgust the operator, and, If a female,'
cause her to give up the whole business
or, at best, to put its use off till to late to
be of the most service. After using oil
we abandoned it for the cause above
stated, and found a better and far more
agreeable remedy In road dust, dry ashes
and whitewash. For the purpose of
being handy, to clean and purify, we
made perches, Bhelves, nests and parti
tions all movable, and as often us judg
ment dictated or necessity required, we
removed everything and gave the house
a good and thorough wetting Inside with
whitewash. No fears of getting it to
thick. Slosh it Into all the cracks ; but,
over and above all, we always keep on
hand a goodly supply of road dust, and
sift all the aehes on the heap. This we
spread one or two inches deep over the
floor of the hen house. It instantly ab
sorbs all droppings, keeping the air fresh
and pure, and every time a hen flies up
or down to or from the nest or perches
she raises adust that settles on the perch
es, nests, etc. This dust may not be
immediate death to Insects, but renders
life so miserable to them that they im
mediately vacate the premises. It seems
not only to hinder, but effectually to ar
rest their locomotion, like a horse in a
bed of quick-sand. The effect on the
chickens is like magic so far as ridding
them of lice is concerned.
tUTIIorses should be watered in the
morning before they are fed. A full
drink of water immediately after being
fed is a sure way to produce indigestion,
if not inflamation. When water is
drunk by a horses the bulk goes directly
to the large intestines, and little of it Is
retained In the stomach. Borne old and
worthless horses, by way of experiment,
were fed with split peas and supplied
with water immediately before being
killed. It was found that the water had
carried the peas into the intestines,
where no digestion took place at all.
Frozen Plants.
In times of the severe cold, the most
tender plants in the window will some
times be chilled and frozen. Such plants
should not be put near the stove to be
thawed out ; but kept where the temper,
ature is a trifle above the freezing point
that the thawing may be gradual, and
In the dark that deleterious chemical
changes may not take place. If severe
ly touched with frost, it is best to re
move the frozen parts that new stems
may be formed from the buds below.
Water freely, and it finally brings them
to the ordinary temperature for house
plants 70 degrees.
Shrewdness and Ability.
Hop Bitters so freely advertised in all
the papers, secular and religious, are
having a large sale, and are supplanting
all other medicines. There is no deny,
lng the virtue of the Hop plant, and the
proprietors of these Bitters have shown
great shrewdness and ability in com
pounding a Bitters, whose virtues are so
palpable to every one's observation.

Good Advloe.
If you keep your stomach, liver and
kidneys in perfect working order, you
will prevent and cure by far the greater
part of the ills that afflict mankind in
this or any section. There is no medi
cine known that will do this as quickly
or surely as Parker's Ginger Tonlo,
which will secure a perfectly natural ac
tion of these Important organs without
interfering with your dally duties. See

THERE IS
A Balm in Gilead!
The success which has marked the introduction
of Cream Balm, a Catarrh remedy, prepared by
Ely Bros., Owego, N. Y.. is Indeed marvelous.
Many persons In Pittstoti and vicinity are using it
with most satisfactory results. A lady down
town Is recovering the sense of smell, which she
had not enjoyed for fifteen years through the use
of the Halm. She had given up her case as Incur,
alile. Mr. Barber, the druggist, has used It in his
family and commends It very highly. In another
column a young Tuukhannock lawyer, known to
many of our readers, tettines that he was cured
of painful deafness. It Is certainly a very efflca
o.loiis remedy. MUston, I'a. Uaz , Avgutt
