Our Debt to the Old World

The statistics of emigration for the
past eleven years are of the very
highest interest and value. We can
almost at q glance view how largely
we are indebted to this exodus from
foreign countries for the rapid i'm
provement of our own. We find that
Germany sends us 845, ,479 persons
as additions to our population and
consequent wealth; Ireland, $50, ,S31;
England, 194, ,166; Great Britain, mot
specified. 400,0ls; Prussia, 64,355 ;
Scotland, 25.829; Sweden and Nor
ICY, 5S,2S9; Denmark, 18, ,043; Hol-
land ii, ,205; France, 49, 1888; British
America, 10S,534; China. 65,043 /;
and other nations in a smaller ratio.
China promises within very short
time to compete with Europe, the
demand powerfully stimulating the
sapcly which that storehouse of pop
uIation is able to dispense. In this
vast multitude of emigrants, but few
claim to represent the professions,
and the arts or manufactures their
faculty is for plain, downright hard
work, precisely that which che coun-
try most needs. Of laborers, there
are 515,217 of farmers, 264, ,949 ;
of mechanics, 1876, SOB; of miners,
7l,4l4 and of servants, 6S,628.-
This classification comprises one
half of the entire number I; but the
other half, whose occupations are
unknown, may be distributed in
about like proportions.

Sir Henry Rawlinson, the antio aa.
rian explorer, has just made the
striking announcement that he has
discovered the original records from
which the book of Genesis was com.
posed, and illustrates ais claim by
details Of an interesting character.
He says:
''The progreas now reached in the
collection and arrangement Of the
Nineyen inscribed fragments, made
i beyond a doubt that they would be
able to derive the whole of the histo-
ry given In the Book of Genesis,
from the tima Of Abraham, from the
original documents; and it was not
too Anch to expect that almost the
same facts. and descriptions would
be found in the Bsbylonian docu-
ments- as in the Bible. He hoped
very soon to have ready a paper on
the Garden of Rdsn, Paradise in
which he would show that was the
natural name of Babylon. The riv-
ers bore the very same names, and
the Babylonian documents gave an
exact geographical account of the
Garden OF Eden. The Flood and
tue ever of Babel would be found
:, be most amply illustrated in the
Babylonian documents"
Biblical scholars will look for the
further development of this discov-
ery by this eminent oriental scholar
and antiquarian with especial inter-
est

Experiment.

Every farmer should try more OF

of le most important facts were dis

the field.
Experiments ought to be made
carefully, and observed with accuracy
otherwise they will be comparatively
useless and may even mislead. Il
you try plaster OR superphosphate OF
any other concentrated manure on
potatoes, for instance, few rods
under precisely the same conditions
should be left for comparison. And
this need not involve much expense
or an unreasonable amount of labor
The information you will gain will
more than compensate for the whole.
The pursuit OF knowledge under any
circumstances implies some labor,
but it pays. If not in the amount OF
varied character of instruction de-
rived, at least in the satisfaction to
be obtained from it.
We say, therefore, try more or less
experiments every year. Try them
properly, that is, thoroughly-sift
and analyse them at the end of the
season, and then, if they succeed or
fail, decisively and clearly, let us
have them to publish.--Massaehaset

Birds and Their Uses.

Baron Won Tschudi, the well
known Swiss naturalist, says:
"Without birds, successful agri
culture is impossible. They annihi.
late in a few months a greater mum
ber of destructive insects than hu'
man hands csn accomplish in the
same number of years. Among the
most useful birds for this purpose
may be classed the swallow, wren,
robin, sparrow and finch.' The
Baron tested titmouse upon some
rosebushes OF neighbor which it
riddled in few hours of innumera-
BILE lice. A robin in the same neigh
borhood killed eight hundred flies in
an hour. A pair of night swallows
destroyed in fifteen minutes an i'm
mense swarm of gnats. A pair OF
wrens flew thirty-six times an hour
with insects in their bills, to their
nests. He considers the sparrow
very important; a pair of them in q
single day carry three hundred
worms or catterpillars to their nests
--certsinly good compensation for
the few cherries which they pluck
from the trees. The generality of
small birds carry to their young ones
during the feeding period nothing
but insects and worms. 1t is very
evident, therefore, that no discharge
of fire arms should be allowed in the
vicinity of orchards, vineyards and
fiower-gardens, lest useful birds be
frightened away Hearth and Home.

Best BREED OF Cows FOR MILK -
Farmers who sell milk and care
nothing about q uality, are partial to
Shorthorn (Durham) grades ont OF
good milking common cows. Those
who make cheese and butter prefer
Ayrshire or Ayershire grades. Those
who make fancy butter the Chief
thing, or who wish milk of great rich
ness for their own tables, select the
Jerseys. Great mixers occur in all
breeds, occasionally. The Devons
give a good quantity of rich milk,
and the Holstein or Dutch cows are
great mixers. Your choice would
3 be wisest, probably, if it fell upon
the Ayrshires or Dsvons as giving
the best returns for food consumed
and care giyen.-Amerieas Agr'ea9-

Sensible HereSies,

Father Hyacinth. friar in France,
who has become quite famous IN his
sermons, has lately given It as his
private judgment that tie, day has

says:
"There was 8, time. when all tina,

that dwell beyond the Atlantic and

Clover is the cheapest and best
manure that can be had. Nothing
pays better than field of good
clover plowed under. 1t enriches
the soil quicker than barnyard ma
nure, and puts it in better condition.
To plow it down well, If it stands
thick and high, each morning a roller
should be drawn over as much as
can be plowed in a day. and heavy
chain should be fastened to the point
of the plow-beam, to drag 1t in the
furrow. In this way it can be com.
pletely covered. Clover contains all
the elements needed to enrich the
soil for all kinds of grain, and in
larger quantities than other ma
