The news from Europe give an account
of a great battle between the Austrians
and Prussans neal SuIowa, on the 3rj,
which seems to have completely crippled
the power of Austria. The carnage
was terrible, and the Austrians complete.

full whether Italy will accept the media
ton Of France, as they, though having
suffered numerous reverses, seem deter
mined to owe Venetia only to their W
valor.
A new invention, called the needle
gun, is said to give the Prussians great
advantage. Prussia has the exclusive
patent for the invention, and all her
arc armed viii this gun. which IS
breech- loading, and the powder, fuse
and bali being in the same carriage
The fuse being between The ball and the
powders igni!ed by means of a needle,
thus ensuring the complete combustion
of all the powder, and all its force, wi h
the hot air, which cannot escape, upon
the ball. 1t is reported that the killed
at Sudowa average eight Austrians 10
one Prussian.
Appearances indicate that a general
European war will result from the pres
ent state of affairs. Prussia seems de.
termined TO have what she demasded al

leon, who has assumed the part Of media

has already ordered his iron-clad fleet TO
Venice, and made other warIlke prepar.

OUTDOOR WAITE WASH Cosorea WasA--
Having recently erecied 1910 fseL OF rough
picke; fence, we adopted the following wash,
wh en- seems TO stick well, and appears very
we'll. About peek OF lime at a time was put
Ia . tub. and over This wae poured two paiifnls
of water, IN which large donble handful of
salt was previously dissolved. As soon as The
lime began to boil mp well, we added about 4
10 Of coarse grease from the fat-tryers, and
stirred il IN thoroughly while the whole was
hot II was then used on the pickets, rails and
posts sturing IL often, and diIating as needed.
For the running bottom boards we mixed
nearly oarrelful of white wash, in quantities
OF peck az time, with grease and salt, as
above, 34 lbs. OF, lamp black were t1en ground
or mashed; then thor oughly stirred IN quarts
OF sweet milk snd strained into the barrel and
well stirred-the stirring balm gTepeated every
Time pailful was 20 be taken out, and that in
the pail frequently stirred while using. This
applied carefully 10 the bottom board, gives q
hne very dark lead color. that contrasts well
with The white. Bo:h the white and coloFed
washes were applied very freely, IL barrels
OF fresh lump ii me being used. The posts and
rails were washed before mailing on the pick
cts, and the pIckets were also washed on one
SIDE 90 that there Is a coat Of lime between the
pIckets and rails The whole Job Is salts
factory, and the fence looks like one planned
and painted. We expect the lime will add
much TO its durability.-Americaa Agricultural
