OIL or WooL.-Professor Joy stated at
the last meeting of the Polytechnic Associa-
tion of New-York, that there is a great
waste in our wooden manufactures of a valu-
able substance, that is, the oil of the wool.
When wool has been thoroughly cleansed,
it is found to have lost thirty, forty, or in
some cases, as high as sixty per cent of IT'S
weight, and the most of this is oil-an ex-
cellent oil for some purpose, and especially
for soap. There is an establishment in Eng
land that takes wool to cleanse for the oil, i,
making no other charge for the WORK The
oil can be extracted by means of the bisul
phide of carbon, which Is cheap article II
is used for extracting the oil from rape seed
instead of pressing, and is also used for ex-
tracing the slkaloids and the essential oils
of plants. 1t has been stated that it leaves
no oCor."

A HINT TO TREE-MuRBgRERs.- of
me speakers at the late Agricultural meeting
at Yale College. gives the following direc,
tions tor lifting trees in nurseries How ex-
actIy his views accord with those expressed
in the Telegraph time and again on this
very subject. We hope the hint will be ta-
ken, and the crime of tree-murdering, for
which, we regret to say there is no capital
punishment, will diminish yearly, until it
shall be no more heard of in all the land.
He says:
AN enormous amount Of money Is annu-
ally lost to tree purchasers from rude and
unskillfui taking up. Trees are torn up by
the roots, as if the trunk and branches were
the one thing necessary, and the roots super
huous. The proper way is, to open trench
on each side OF the tree with common
spade, keeping the edge toward the tree, 80
as not TO cross root. These trenches should
be far enough from the tree to avoid the
main roots, and deep enough to go below
all, except tay-root, which may be cut off
This being done, the tree may be pulled up
with Its roots entire"

A HINT TO GARDENERS. As our houses
and gardens are always, more or less, infest-
ed with vermin, it is satisfactory to know
that bezine, an article become sufficiently
well-known as a detergent, is no less ettica-
cious as an agent in insecticide. One or two
drops are sufficient to asphyxiate the most
redoubtable insect pest, be it beetle, cock.
chaterr, spider, slug, caterpillar, or other
creeping thing. Even rats and mice will
speedily decamp' from any place sprinkled
with few drops of the patent bezine A
singular fact connected with this applica-
tion of benzine is that the bodies of insects
killed by it become so rigid that their wings,
legs, &c, will break rather than bend, if
touched. Next day, however, when the ben
zine has evaporated, suppleness is restored.

Got Left.

A genuine touch of woman's nature, as
we'll as human nature, pervades the follow
ing:
A comfortable old couple sat seat or
two in front of US on the railroad, during
one of the hottest days of last summer
Their journey evidently was one OF the
events of their lives, and their curiosity ex-
cited the attention of the passengers. At a
way station the old gentleman stepped out
to get drink, or buy a doughnut, and
heard the bell only in time to rush to the
door of the eating house, and see the train
move OFF without him. The old lady in
her seat had been igetting, looking out OF
the window in her anxiety for his return,
and when she saw his plight. his frantic
gestures for the train to stop, us 1t swept
further away, she exclaimed:
There, my old man has got left he has
there, see, he has Wall" she continued,
sitting back in her seat again, I'm glad
Quits always been, Ma'am you'll get ieft
all my life long; and now he's gone and
got left, and I'm glad on't'
Her candid reflection on the accident, and
the evident satlaetion she felt in the fact
that II was the old man, and not herself
that was loft, was greeted by round o
laughing applause. Not few of the ladies
in the car were delighted that II was the old
man aud not the woman who had made the
bunder, and gone and got left '"

AGRICULTURAL.

CELERY.-This is very important period
In the celery crop. 1t is now growing, or
ought to be growing, finely. There IS no
garden crop that requires so much attention
and now, particularly, it should receive it.
The soil in the trenches should be kept we'll
stirred, and manure water applied frequent
ly. When the time for drawing the ground
to the plants comes-and some may be large
enough for that now-it should. BE done
very gradually, and the hands should have
great deal to do wi the work, in order
that the dirt may be put closely around the
plants, and the nose of the "leader" not
covered up.
1t is useless TO attempt to raise good celc-
ry without careful striving of the soil before
hilling; application of liquid manure re-

plants, and placing it closely about them

WASHING THE HAIR.-The beauty and permauencv
Of the hair best promoted by the sricest clcan-
ness. X Some writers strongly dsapproyo Of
even wetDg the hair and muster up we know not how
many evil consequences likely to follow the practice
This however, is ridiculous prejudice no possible in
abution of the head. 1t is even mistaken idea into
which many have fallen that there s danger of catch
ing cold from this practice unless the greatest be
observed to prevent exposure subsequently to the open
air. No such fear need be enter aimed, especially when
the practice OF washing the hair has been commenced
and constantly observed from early life.
NJ. Arego, in his late voyage around the world, re-
marks that the South Sea Isanders who have fue long
hair with beautiful silky gloss, promote its beauty by
frequently washing it.

are creditably informed that OF resolutions has al
ready betn prepared IN Raleigh and sent down Ohm
ston county for adoption there and afterwards in every
other county in which meetings of the right stripe
be gotten up. The object this time is to agitate for

Standard e people of North Carolina 1N take their
affairs into their handS that is, in plain Ian
guage, go out Of the Conederacy. ihs, instead of

to the foreign raginR If the people are
not prepared for this, let them beware OF the teachings
of the Ntand3d, which educated the people The doc

pledged the last dollar and the last man. to mantlin
it. Who will guarantee that if the Standard should
get the people saudej with another it would be
any more true than to the present.-Fay. Observer.
