What Kind of Wood to Buy.

As many Western farmers have to
buy their wood, it is advantageous to
know something of the comparative
value of the different sorts. People
often pay little regard to the quality
of the wood they purchase, but take
that which is offered at the least price,
rs though there were no difference
between one cord of wood and another.
The truth is the quality of wood IS
extremely variable, not only as be-
tween the different varieties but as
between specimens of the same
variety. Wood grown on high land
IS capable of getting much more heat
than the same variety grown on low
land. So, too, wood grown in q
northern latitude is preferable to that
grown further south. The wood OF
old well-matured trees is of greater
value than that of those of younger
growth.
Wind-falls, that have been a con-
siderable time on the ground. trees
partially decayed, or wood that has
long been piled in a damp place, is of
comparatively little value as fuel, and
should be bought at a very low price
if at all. 1t adds much to the value
of wood if it is prepared for the stove
when it is green, is then thoroughly
ami is finally placed under
shelter. Care, however, must be Ia
ken not to pack it too closely or to
put it in building badly ventilated.
as it IS liable to be injured by the drv
rot. BY far the most valuable tree for
fuel is the shell-bark hickory. 1t is
comparatively easy to work, burns
freely, leaves no unbUrnt Goals while
in many kinds of woods, is of no
value, is the finest kind of kindIing.
We believe, from the experience we
have had in burning this wood, as
from experiment with a view of de
lis relative value rs 4 fuel.
il i worth at least a fourth more than
maple and upward of a third more
than beech. Oak wood differs in
value very greatly according to the
variety of the tree as well as or
account of the difference of the local
ity where it is grown, and the
with which it is dried:
white oak ranks next to hickory
yellCw oak is Of about the same value
rs maple, while the red and black
oaks are rated about the same as
beech. In this classification. however.
we base our calculation on oak wood
that Is rs well dried as the wood with
which it is compared; but this will
not be the case unless extra care Is
taken with it. The soft woods as Il.
class are about half as valuable n
hickory: some Of them standing
higher in the scale than Others ON
account Of their superior density.
In the purchase of wood rs in every
thing else there is quite a saving in
buying a good article. 1t costs ~
much TO haul a load of poor wood as
Of good, and the labor of preparing il
for the stove is about the same while
the difference in the quality of the
fiber, and the ease with which the
dinner is cooked, argue strongly in
favor Of good wood Prairie Farm.

| That opens n world Of light To this eye,
| Asst lifts from the earth the mantle Ofnight
We drink in its beauty. for never before,
| Have our eyes hehcld such hefiutliul scene

Chanting soft melody with siivery tongue,
Whilst the bubbles that dance in the inst

And the flowers on its banks just beginning
Ope' their petals when Kissed 10y the rays
And fling To- the air their sweetest perfume.
To gladden. the senses OF earth's weary

While her sOngsters are chanting melodt-

And the woodlands re-echo the chorus COM
The spirit of which is thanksgiving and

To the Maker OF all, no tribute Of praise :?
Do no feelings Of gratitude from your heart
For blessings attending thee all of thy

Let sunshine dispel the clouds hanging
Unfetter thy spirit. so long prison bound,
And walk in the shadow Of darkness no

Pluck the sweet blossoms that bloom on

And lean on the arm that will ever sus-

To CURE \ COLD.-The following
from H0lrs Journal Of Heath ought
to be known by everybody. To fol-
low this would save thousands Of
lives annually:
The moment Il man finds he has
taken Il cold. let him do three things ;
First eat nothing; Second, 20 to bed,
cover Up in Il warm room; Third,
drink a. 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 he well in thirty
hours. To neglect a cold for forty
eight hours after the cough COM
menced is to place himself beyond
cure, until the cough has run its
course of about Il fortnight. Warmth
and abstinence are safe and certain
cures when applied early. Warmth
keeps the pores of the skin open, and
relieves it of the surplus which Op-
pressed it, while abstinence cuts of
the supply of material for phlegm,
which would otherwise be COUghed
up.

l interrupted him here by asking
him if he had ever been resisted by
criminals about to be beheaded.
"Oh, yes" he said, "The wretches
are mostly so unnerved by anguish,
and the long confinement, that they
are completely apathetic, and even
helpless some of them even have to
be carried to the block, and are unable
to stand on their feet while we bare
their neck and shoulders. But we
have always to he on our guard: for
those who to all appearances, have
been completely broken down, often
times rouse themselves at the last mo-
ment, and enter into a bOOtless strug-
gle in sight of the block. But my as
sistants are strong and cOOl-headed
men; they overcome such resistance
in a minute or two, and in a few sec
Onds the culprit's head is fastened to
the block, by means of a thong, draw
ing il forward, in case ohe neck is very
short. The hands of criminals who
are very restless are likewise fastened
to the block. Meanwhile / have ia

that all is ready, shout lin the name

stroke has been successful, and then,

from the headless trunk"
"Did you ever have to strike twice?n
/ asked.
ION three occasions, unfortunately
had to do So" he replied, but it YVES
entirely owing to the Testlessness OF
the culprits. Their sufferings, how
ever, were not thereby prolonged
much, if at all; for my second stroke
followed the first one in the next mo-
ment.n
1t was toward 3 o'clock when / babe
farewell to Mr.. Reindel, and returned
to the village where my carriage was
waiting for me. What the execution
or had told me gave me much food for
reflection, and contributed much to-
ward strengthening the conviction
which had lately acquired more and
more, that capital punishment is n
relic of the barbarism of past ages,
and that humanity and civilization
require its speedy abolition.

AHARD WINTER PREDICTED.-Our
old experienced weather pTOgnOStic-
ators predicts a hard winter. The
various signs have already made
themselves apparent. For several
weeks past the sad and dismal
''chirpsn of birds, high in the air,
could he distinctly heard on calm
nights. The feathered tribe are now
passing south in large flOcks. Dur
ing the day some case flight, while
Others fly almost incessantly are so
high as not to be observed with the
naked eye. FlOcks of wild geese
have also been flying southwark
earlier by far than usual. This would
seem TO indicate the probability Of a
hard winter, and the wise will pre-
pare for it i'm time.

DEFEND on YOURSELF.-AIOst
young men consider it great mis-
fortune to be born poor, or not to
have capital enough to established
themselves at their outset in life in q
good and comfortable business. This
Is 4 mistaken notion. So far from
poverty being a misfortune to them,
if we may judge from what we every
day behold, it is really q blessing;
the chance is more than ten to one
against him who starts with fortune.
