Salt for Grass.

A CORRESPONDENT writes the American
Institute Farmers Club on the subject, as
follows; "When l was In Australia no.
ticed that the tracks made by the drags
loaded with salt hides were always green,
even in the severest time of the long
buckilclders,' or hot winds charged with
dust, that destroy everything they pass
over. This led me 20 think that here was

dressing for grass lands, and 1t was here |

II tried upon variety of lands and
grasses, and always with the same results.
In the spring, the refuse salt and sweep

wet-saltGd hides have been slowed is
spread over the sward, the young spring
grass is strong and grows quickly. Tho
cattle are fond of it, and eat It evenly, and
the fields so dressed keep green when all
around is parched and dry From the
absorbent qualities of the salt, moisture

To Cure q Cold.

THE following is from Hdlrs Journal ot
Health: "The moment a man is satisfied
that he has taken cold, let him do three
things First, eat nothing; second, go to
bed, cover up, in warm room; third,
drink as much cold water as he can, or as
he wants, or as much herb tea as he can,
and in three cases out Of four he will be
well in thirty-six hours. To neglect q
cold for forty eight hours after the cough
commences is TO place himself beyond
cure, until the cough has run its course of
about fortnight. Warmth and absti'
nence are safe, certain cures, when az.
piled early. Warmth keeps the pores of
the skin open and relieves 1t of the sur
plus which oppressed 1t, while abstinence
cuts off the supply of phlegm, which
would otherwise be coughed up.
