AIR POISON.

People have often said that no diff
ference can be detected in the anaIv-
zatiOn Of pure and impure air. This
is one Of the vulgar errors difficult to
dislodge from the public brain. The
fact is, that the condensed air of a
crowded room gives a deposit which,
il allowed to remain for 4 few days,
forms solid, thick, glutinous mass,
having a strong odor of animal mat
ter. If examined by the microscope,
it is seen to undergo remarkable
change. First of all, it is converted
into a vegetable growth, and this is
followed Ay the production of multi
tudcs Of animalculcs a decisive
proof that it must contain organic
matter, otherwise it could not nour-
ish organic beings. This was the re-
suit arrived at by DR.. Angus Smith,
in his beautiful experiments on the
air and water of towns, where he
showed how the lungs and skin gave
out organic matter, which is in itself
deadly poison, producing headache,
sickness, disease, or epidemic, accord.
ing to its strength.
Why, if "a few drops of the liquid
matter, obtained by the condensation
of the air Of foul locality, introduced
into the vein Of dog, can produce
death with the usual phenomena of
thyphus fever what incaIculable evil
must it not produce on those human
beings who breathe it again and
again, rendered foulcr and less capa-
bic of sustaining life with every
breath drawn? Such contamination
of the air, and consequent hot.bcd Of
fever and epidemic, it is easily within
the power of man to remove. Venti-
lation and cleanliness will do all, so
far as the abolition of this evil goes,
and ventilation and cleanliness are
not miracles to be prayed for, but Ger.
tain results Of common obedience to
the laws Of God .-Dicken's Houahoid

Gov. Kirkwood, in short address
delivered at the recent Muscatine
County Fair, said " He thought it
best for the Iowa farmers to raise less
grain and more stock. lie was beef
raiser, and said it cost him about
twenty per cent. to market his bccves,
forty per cent. on wheat, corn sixty,
and WOO! four. lie said that when he
first came to Iowa, he was told that
our prairies would not produce good
English grass. He did not believe it
then, and now he knows it is not
true. lie concluded by recommend
ing to farmers to pay more attention
to fruits, shrubbcry and ornamental
and shade trees. Make our homes
pleasant and attractive to our child
ren, that they may not, so many of
them, seek town life as soon as they
are able to go abroad, but surround
the patcrnal home with numerous OBJ
jccts to cherish and love, that if some
of them must necessarily go abroad
they will have good homestead so
thoroughly planted in their desires
that they will be likely to excel their
fathers III that respect"

IOWA LANDS.

The land department of the Hi
nois Central Railway has just con-
summatcd sale of 5000 acres of
land in the southern part of Shelby
county to sixty German families from
Western New York"
We copy the above from the Chi
caso Prairie Farmer because it is so
suggestive Of the policy that our own
land grant Railroads and individual
land owners should inauguratc in this
State. How is it that the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad has been enabled to sell
her lands at from SIS to $25 per acre,
when lands equally productive and
just as near to the Southern and
scarcely further from the Eastern
Market, are seeking purchasers at
from 50 to S. per acre? The reason
is simply this : The Illinois Central
Road has largely advertised its lands,
not only by ordinary newspaper ad-
vertisement, but by the gratuitous
circulation of thousands of adver-
tising pamphlets, descriptive of the
country through which the Road pas
ses, that have found their way into
almost every home in the Eastern
States.
Here, with the exception of pam
phlet issued by the Emigrant As
sociation several years ago, nothing
of this kind has been done either by
the public or by the Railroad Compa-
nies, and as consequence the Rail
road lands so begging at 1925 per
acre, simply because only very few
of those persons who are immigra-
ting Westward, have any correct
knowledge or appreciation of their
value. The public knows compare
lively nothing of our rich mines of
mineral and agricultural wealth that
only await the development of the
strong hand of the farmer and miner
The Western States will receive a
large immigration next Spring. And
now is the time for the work to be
done, in order to secure to this State
its full share.-Dubuque Tines.

OLD, BUT GOOD.

\ pious old lady, who was too un.

cr selected as the foundation Of his
discourse. The poor Ounce was rare
y fortunate enough to remember the
words of the text or even the chapter
and verse where they could be found;
but one Sunday he ran home in hot
haste, and with a smirk of satisfac-
ton on his face, informed his wife that
he could repeat every word without
missing a syllable. The words were
as follows: An angel came down
from Heaven, and took live coal
from the altar"
Know every word,' replied the
husband.
IL am glad to hear it," continued
the wife.
They are nice words,7 said her
husband.

WHAT YOUTH SHOULD LEARN,
BY C. J. HARE.

The teachers of youth, in a free
country, should select those books for
their chief udy-so far, | mean, as
this world is conccrned-which are
best adapted to foster spirit of man
ly freedom. The duty of preserving
the liberty which our ancestors, thro'
Gods blessing, won, established, and
handed down to US, is no less impera-
tive than any commandment in the
second table, if it b. not the concen-
tration of the whole. And is this du
ty to be learned from the investiga
tion Of science ,? Is it to be picked up
in the cruciblc ? or extracted from the
properties Of lines and numbers =?
fear there is a moment of broken
lights in the intellectual day of civil
lied countries, when among the man.

is almost lost sight Of.

COMFORTS FOR cows.

Now that the cold season is setting
in, let the cows, especially the milk
givers, have all needful attention
They should be well housed and well
fed. The stables should be Just mod
erately warm, well ventilated, clean,
and provided with bedding. Aside
from the mere matter OF feed and
drink the animals should be kept COM
Portable. This matter can hardly be
Then, as to fodder part of this, of
course, should be straw and hay and
corn-stalks but to expect cows to
give much milk on such lean fare, is
folly. Favor them with mess of chop
ped roots, or cut straw, or stalks
mixed with meal of some kind. A ia
vorite mess" for cattle with friend
of ours is this Cut up hay, or straw,
or stalks, in pieces not more than an
inch, or inch and half long, put the
provender in tub or tight box, and
pour boiling water upon it then
sprinkle on little salt, and cover the
whole with little bran or meal to
keep the steam in. When cold, feed
it in messes of a bushel at a time
Good as this is, it should be varied
from time to time, for cows like varie-
ty, as well as men, Cows should be
salted two or three times week. In
mild weather they should range by
day in commodious yard, protected
on two sides at least, by covered
sheds. And in this yard should be a
pen-stock of running water, or a
trough kept full from q good pump,
the first is the best.

FALSE EDUCATION.
BY WALTER SAVAGE LANpOR.

Shame upon historians and school
masters for exciting the worst pas
sions of youth by the display OF false
glorics If your religion hath any
truth or influence, her professors will
extInguish the promontory lights,
which only allure to breakers. They
will be assiduous in teaching the
young and ardent that great abilities
do not constitute great men, without
the right and unremit,ing application
of them and that, in the sight of hui
manity and wisdom, it is better to
erect one cottage than to demolish a
hundred cities. Down to the present
day we have been taught little else
than falschood. We have been told
to do this thing and that we have
been told we shall be puni she'd unless
we do; but at the same time we are
SHOWN by the finger that prosperity
and glory. and the esteem Of all
about us, rest upon other and very
different foundations. Now, do the
ears or the eyes scduce the most easi-
ly, and lead the most directly to the
heart? But both ears and eyes are
won over, and alike arc persuaded to
corrupt us.
