The patch xEarns onss4

Twas sitting in my chamber,
With my baby on my knee.
And the music of an o!den tune
Was hummIng dreamingIy--
idly glanced toward the bed,
4 patchwork quilt was there,
The work of girIhood's early days,
Arranged with ssmicl5el care''
And tears come gushing to my eyes,
Their course could moi stay,
While many mile my heart went back,
Along liie's devious way.
That quilt IS made Of memories,
Which with my growth have grown,
Each patch is part of garment worn
BY some one have known,
What tales of love and JOY and grief
Are with the whole lnwFought
What portraits and what histories
Come crowding to my thoughts
That azure robed mY-mother's form
When | was but child;
Oh how it brings my mothers face
3 efore me, Calm and mild
Her soft dark eyes, her raven hair,
Her forhead meek and fair,
Where even In her brightest hours
There lay shade of care.
Years charged the raven locks to gray,
Her fair brow grew more pale,
And 50 she faded from our sight,
= And went ''within the vei.."
And here are scraps of infant robes
A darling brother wore
The brave bright boy who died SO young
But can sing no more
All brighter memories are dimmed
With tears my eyes have shed,
And that old quilt has filled my heart
With yearnings Tor the dead.''

CURE FOR HYDRoPHoRIA.-Ar old YER
inonter writes as follows ID am now in
my 8oth year, and have obtained what in
formatian could, both from observation
and critical study. 1t has lately been dis
covered that a strong decoction made of
the bark of the roots Of white ash, when
drank as a medicine, will cute the bite Of a
mad dog. This undoubtedly is owing to
the fact that rattlesnakes can be made
more easily to crawl over live fire Goals
than white ash leaves; and they are neyer
found in forests where the white ash grows.
Would it not be advisable for druggists in
or large towns and cities to keep con-
staatly on hand a medicine prepared from
the roots Of the white ashl 1t might be
the means Of saving some valuable lives
from a sudden aud painful death.

FEEDtNG CALvEs.-A calf should never
be changed suddenly from all milk to all
grass, bat it should be broughtabout grad
.uaIly; otherwise the growth may be inju-
riously affected.
The food with Which they are fed has a
powerful influence on the milking proper
ties Of all COWS; and the mode in which
they are reared has a considerable effect on
their capacity to give milk.
In milk we have all that is necessary
far the growth Of the Young animal, and it
is the type and representative of all food !;
for, unless an aliment contains the princi-
pies Of milk, it is not fitted for the promo
ton Of the health and perfect development
iof the body.
It is a bad thing to feed calves on skim
milk, as both the batter and casin have
been removed in the shape Of cream
Earl Spencer, Of England, who was very
successful in weaving his calves. fed them
first with new milk, and then with skim
milk and meal--the latter supplying the
necessary nitrogen and nitrogenized mate
rials.
Exercise for a calf that is to be raised is
a necessity, but for all fatting animals the
reverse. Care should also be taken not to
expose them to the cold, and particularly
to sudden changes. Much exercise OF
milk cows decrease the production Of butter,
and increases the yield Of caseln. Poor
pastures produce most cheese, and stall
feeding most butter Patent Office Re-

after they should receive their extra quar-

committee was made up Of one man from

the settlers have their extra quarter seq

default; then that q registry should be
opened to all save the settlers; that after
the final adjournment, all whose names
were on register should go into lottery

drawn first should draw ia order Of arm
